ank329 Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 meh, I thought the episode was alright, nothing amazing. although the room full of carters was funny. It was a nice stand alone episode, and it was great to see some people we haven't seen in a long time, Martof and Janet. It would have been nice to see Jack again, but oh well. one annoying part... they don't tell us who Carter is with in the universe where she is on maternity leave... who else thinks this might be Jack? Finally, the whole green wire part... this could be really interesting later on; at the end of the episode we don't know if the other's intentions are good or bad. It could have been a warning, or it could have intentionally been wrong advice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mateya Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 what bothered me is: how the other sg1 knew in advance that this reality has the zpm and that is on atlantis? afterall, they havent been here before and to put this kind of elaborate plan in action you would have to have detailed previous information - which means, this wouldnt be their first visit. weird..

Tenebrae Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 Hmm... As he was from an alternate world - it's wholly possible it won't be an issue but yeah it was a by and by episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote'] It might be possible they didn't know all the details when they started out, they might have assumed that there was a zpm they could steal in some other universe, and then once they got here they gained enough information to put the rest of their plan into motion.

Sly12 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I would of loved it if it turned out... If it wasn't Jack she ended up with but Dr. McKay from atlantis... it would been some great climax to the episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilander72 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 You'd think that after 50+ unscheduled stargate activations it would change to scheduled un-scheduled stargate activations. :rolleyes: An ep with some "family" reunion and un-paralelled paralell-universe mystery. If there's infine numbers of paralell-universes how come the gate wasn't activated all the time? Not a good episode. I'd rather have a ripple effect about time-travel.

S0V13T Posted January 22, 2006 Author Share Posted January 22, 2006 This was an olay standalone episode, imo. My fav part is when Mitchel commented about the Asgard not being what he expected. Mitchel "I've read all the mission reports about the Asgard, but they're not what I was expecting." Carter: "Oh no? What were you expecting then?" Mitchel: "Well, PANTS for one..."

Vyperion Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 The best quote was when Daniel said that he missed Thor. Nice little inside joke there. Also nice to see the glasses Carter from a Moebius alterverse. Also nice references to other parallel realities like Mirror (Star Trek) and Bizzaro (Superman). The way I understood it was that it was only the realities where the wormhole passed near enough to the black hole were drawn in - that's why there weren't continuous activations. It might be possible they didn't know all the details when they started out, they might have assumed that there was a zpm they could steal in some other universe, and then once they got here they gained enough information to put the rest of their plan into motion. yes, but that would mean that if they dont succeed here, they will probably try in another mirror universe (otherwise is pointless to even start the mission like that). and still, its a big gamble to go in blind and hope to go get the one (mirror universe) with zpm.. At the end we find out they already had a way of getting back so their carter could've 'stumbled' onto the solution sent everyone back and we would've been none-the-wiser. Then they try again. They were just lucky and as their are an infinte number of parallels there was probably a few that weren't so lucky I think when the time comes Mitchell will cut the red one and say something like "he think I'd go for the green because if I thought he was lying then I'd pick the green because he'd know that I'd know he was lying about green so I'd pick the red which means I should pick red" I think the biggest thing that bothered me was that the dark SG-1 were portrayed as villainous when the light SG-1 has done similar things in the past like stealing technology or going against the wishes of the local planetary governments. I think this SG-1 was probably from the Atlantis universe where the city sank and stayed sunk killing everyone (from the atlantis episode with the Time-ship) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this SG-1 was probably from the Atlantis universe where the city sank and stayed sunk killing everyone (from the atlantis episode with the Time-ship) I didn't think they were portrayed as particularly "villainous" as they went out of their way to not harm them (much). They could've just as easily killed (or attempt to kill) them instead. The "bad" SG-1 couldn't have been from that world because their ZPM was dead. If it was dead they could never have made it to Atlantis in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was dead they could never have made it to Atlantis in the first place.They knew about the Ancient weapon in Antarctica (end of season 7) and found the way to Atlantis (SG-1 season 8/Atlantis season 1) but they didn't get any of the Atlantis ones because they were all depleted and the team died which is why they weren't concerned with the Wraith only defending Earth from the Go'auld. It's fun to postulate on these things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauljs Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Great episode, I really enjoyed the humour, as well as the effects with so many doubles. So for Carter doubles, who's the hubbie? and who's the father? Jack, Pete, Marty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you check out the deleted scenes on GateWorld, you see that the "bad" SG-1 had some misgivings for what they were doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybrick Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 I really enjoyed this ep. I brings up an idea I've always had. I've always thought it would be fun if they did an episode where SG-1 meets up with Kurt Russell and James Spader team from the original movie. Let's face it, there are so many little differences between the series and the movie that they can't possibly be the same universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybrick Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 One thing that bothers me a little: At the end of the episode they give Fraiser the cure for the Prior virus, but not the weapon that shuts off their mental powers? Why the heck not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauljs Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Good question, but 'cause we didn't see them do it, doesn't necessarity mean it didn't happen does it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
