I don't know if there are any other "Dead Like Me" fans out there, but if so, you should have recognized the "Diner" as "Der Wafflehaus" minus the oompah music. Daniel even sat down in Rube's booth. Either this is an actual diner in Vancouver somewhere, or the re-use of the set. I think that it being a set would be quite possible, since they used it in almost every episode of "Dead Like Me".

This is one of the things I loved about this episode. It was great to see the old place again. Too bad they didn't have a cameo of one of them in there.

So what did I miss by not seeing the full version? I watched the 42 minute version, and I've sent for the full 1 and a half hour version, but it hasn't arrived yet. What differences are there?

Oh, yeah - and Threads was BRILLIANT. I'm sorry for the people who don't "get" it. I guess I've got too much Star Trek in me, because I saw the Ascended very much like the Q (and especially the Continuum).

This was by far the best in the season and one of the best episodes yet, Daniel in the diner on one hand running one fantastic and compelling story, with Sam Jack and Teal'c running another, with the two just intermingling. It also finally filled in the blanks about Anubis, and got rid of him FINALLY!

Since Daniel and Oma looked like they did in human form. Does that mean that Anubis looked like that before the (whatever happened to him)?

If you have the boxset, zoom in on the newspaper's that Daniel Reads, and other's in the Dinner. It's pretty cool how it actually talks about Stargate.

They are really interesting… there was something about ancients being sucked out of existence, pods being built to stop this… anyways I’ll leave that for another time, but it is definitely worth checking out. (Spaces represent unreadable titles, as ... represents unreadable words)

At the end of this episode Teal'c is speaking to Ry'ac after the wedding. He and Ry'ac are having a father-son moment and he says a word that I can't hear or understand him say to Ry'ac. Teal'c's face is serious and Ry'ac is not happy by what is said and replys by saying (if I'm correct), "Kar'yn is right, some of the old ways are best unkept". What did Teal'c say to Ry'ac and what does it mean?

[Albion]

Teal'c was teasing Ryac about a Jaffa honeymoon tradition. No details but that it was 'best that the knife be sharp'. The implication being it was something rather unpleasant. Ryac - clearly not liking the idea <g> - declares that it's probably best some traditions aren't upheld.

TEAL’C (once they have broken the embrace): Before your departure, there is a matter that bears discussion.
RYA’C: Father, I am aware of the ways between a man and a woman.
TEAL’C: Good. Then you are prepared for the Rite of Or’nok.
(Rya’c looks horrified.)
RYA’C: Surely it is not still expected?
TEAL’C (looking very serious): On the first eve of shim’owa. My advice is that the knife be as sharp as possible.
RYA’C (staring at him in dread): Perhaps Kar’yn is right. Not all of the old traditions are worth holding on to.
(Teal’c looks at his son seriously for a moment, then his face breaks into a grin.)
TEAL’C: Indeed.

BTW, if you miss something said in an episode, the transcripts at http://www.moon-catchin.net/gatenois...ranscripts.htm are very handy for filling in the blanks.
