Osiris returns to life this week in The Curse! The misdirect is a little too obvious, though, in this episode. Dr. Fraiser manages to synthesize a goa’uld tranquilizer and it’s never mentioned or used ever again. And just how long was Sarah Osiris? 

Joe Mallozzi had an idea for a follow-up episode featuring Steven that never came to fruition but sounds really cool and we want to see it!

And we finish up with a book rec! Hench: A Novel by Natalie Zina Walschots.

THE GOA’ULD ARE REAL! AND THEY LIVE IN AUSTRALIA!! Maybe…. They’re called Worm Goby down there.

What was it that caused the recall device to be activated? Why do we never get to hear Sam’s plan until it’s time for the plan to be put into action? They use the word nudge a lot in this episode. Joy paper!! And another round of live Googling…

Aliens have come to Earth this week in Point of No Return. What does Jack do during his downtime? RIP to Willie Garson. You were amazing as Martin. We also get a bit of an art history lesson and learn more about The Thinker. Why, when weird stuff happens, does SG1 dismiss the possibilities so quickly? THEY WORK WITH ALIENS. 

Also, let us know if you have any Wormhole X-Treme drinking games.

In Beneath the Surface everyone is literally dirty hot. And we’re not mad at it. But who exactly were all the workers before they were sent down? Were they possibly criminals and this is the new jail? What exactly is the backstory of this society where they decided enslaving part of the population was the route to go?

Scorched Earth is actually a divisive episode this week for us. Kerri likes it, Rachael not as much. All the questions that get asked at the end really should have been asked at the beginning. With a project like the Enakaran relocation, did they ever meet General Hammond? 

We also finally get some feedback on the Jack/Sam moments we may have missed over the years and an explanation about Jack’s usage of “niner” in The First Ones.

We finally make it to Kerri’s favorite episode with The First Ones! You also gotta give it up to Dion Johnstone for his portrayal of Chaka in this episode cos he knocked it out of the park. (But he does seem to be bad luck for SG-11…) If anybody out there might know why Jack calls for Sierra Gulf One One Niner when he’s trying to get ahold of SG-11, please let us know why Jack says niner. Because we are confused. This episode also opens up a lot of questions about how exactly the goa’uld evolved from this state to the god-imitating, galaxy-dominating megalomaniacs. What is the plural of Unas?

This week on Watergate, we switch things up with Rachael taking the lead as Kerri is freshly back from vacation. The Russians have a Stargate?!?! There is much discussion about how to determine which gate is the main gate and how the DHD plays into that vs. the SGC’s power source for the gate. And this is a conversation we will return to in the episode 48 Hours (we think). What reports did the Russians read that made them realize they needed something like the Extreme Measures Protocol? All the snarking between Jack and Dr. Markov is amazing.

It’s finally time! Window of Opportunity is here! Find out why our podcast is named after this episode and learn about our new nightclub venture. What question was Daniel asking Jack in the commissary? Thinking about how time travel works always ends up hurting my brain. How do you think Teal’c answers the phone? What’s your favorite off-loop activity that Jack and/or Teal’c do?

Be sure to stay tuned all the way to the end for a little peak behind the scenes…

To be honest upfront, we do not like Divide and Conquer. At all. The zatarc plotline could have been interesting if they’d had more time to develop it. Sadly, we just don’t get the whole Jack/Sam of this episode. Where did it come from? Why is it here? Do you get it? Can you please explain it to us? Why did it have to be Martouf? We like Martouf. Farewell, Freya. It was interesting having you around. 

On Crossroads, we learn that Jack is actually Teal’c’s apprentice! Also, Jaffa can communicate with their symbiotes. What games do you think Teal’c and Shau’nac stayed up all night playing? Unfortunately, the Tok’ra screw over Earth once again. Tanith really wasn’t playing things as close to the vest as he should have. 

Also, go watch Stonehenge Apocolypse.
