i agree they should have stopped him but i guess they had other things they had to do or they thought he could look after himself they may have been following orders

Originally posted by shinysign View PostI also thought it was out of character for Jack to run off and have a one night stand in front of full view of his friends. It was at first implied that he had been drugged, but it was a marriage cake and the nanites caused sleep, so that means that the cake had nothing to do with it, right?
I enjoyed the episode, just a few things like that, it was an early episode too, but still, he has a crush on Carter for 7 seasons but doesn't mind running off with a girl who gives him cake?
And at the time he didn't have any feelings for Sam. It was an early season 1, he was still in love with his ex-wife, he was even writing a letter to her..

This episode shows how much the goauld don't care about us. to shorten the lives of humans dramatically for an experiment is a truelly low act indeed. Seeing Jack as an old man was a bit of a shock. It was a nice ep to watch.Some say that he has only one ear.
And that he solved the Da Vinci Code in 3 minutes.
All we know is he's called

A very good episode. Jack's aging was excellent. His voice, posture and movement changed and the make-up department even remembered to do his hands, something that's often forgotten. The team's reactions when he ordered them to leave him were good, too. Sam briefly looked like she was trying not to cry.
This episode is also notable for our first look at nanotechnology on this series.C-D

Also an example of good and hooking episodes. Jack showed his temper here and RDA portrayed old Jack perfectly. But I was always wandering: did he officially married Kynthia for the rest of show(s) or not???

This was a very fun episode. The seduction of Jack, and the funny old geezer he became.
"Every man has a hundred days of happiness." (Just mis-quoting from memory, but i liked that quotation.)
This is my favourite kind of episode: a good story told with humour. The explanation was somewhat daft, but it attempted to create a consistent situation.

I loved this episode a lot!! Here is the thing: I really don't think they even knew they infected him. It's very doubtful that they knew it. Why would they do that to him? But anyway, I rewatched this episode a couple times because I just really liked it a lot. I loved how Jack was old, and said that he had some small prostate issues or something? Do you have a quote on that?

Ok, I'm going with my DVD on this one...Brief Candle follows 1st Commandment, so, that's what I rewatched!
Anyway, except that it's pretty, which might be why it follows so many darker eps, we learn about nanites and the Goa'uld language being the same as Linear A script...hearing Daniel pronounce Goa'uld the way others do is amusing as is the ode to Wells' Time Machine. Generally, just easy on the eyes. Poor Sam.

I also didn't realize the DVD order was different until after I watched this episode. Maybe I had lower expectations (I didn't see the first 5 or 6 episodes until after I started watching many of the later episodes), but I've been surprised how much I've enjoyed some these early episodes (Broca Divide, First Commandment, and even Emancipation). I'm sure a lot of it is due to how fast the cast seem to come together and play off each other.
I guess the question episode poses is: "Is my kindle the result of bringing Goa'uld technology to Earth?"
