I think she knew that would happen... Jolinar was just taking a chance.

I'm gonna be lazy (and I'm also sick) with this one but what I wrote here, still stands...
Originally posted by Falcon Horus View PostThis is an episode I really enjoy watching, even though in the grand scheme of things there's not much happening -- besides Carter being taken over by a Tok'ra and the Ashrak trying to kill Jolinar.
It mostly serves as a way to introduce us to the Tok'ra and what they are in terms of being Goa'uld but different (however it's not until a few episodes later that we'll learn how arrogant they really are -- looking forward to it though).
It's nice seeing Cassie -- especially when she's running towards Sam only then realizing the paint on her fingers. Sam would have some explaining to do to the SGC's laundry service.
Continuity-error occurs when Cassie goes to Sam at the end, the way Daniel, Jack and Janet are positioned switches between shots.
And Teal'c swipes his keycard through the lock the wrong way when he leaves the cell-block. The magnetic strip's on the opposite side, so technically speaking that door shouldn't have opened at all.
The lake's a popular location to shoot at because it'll make another appearance in the pilot of Stargate Atlantis when it doubles for the location of Teyla's village. And in the scifi serie The 4400, it's the lake where the 4400 that were taken, are being returned in their big ball of light.

Unlike Jack, I always did like the Tok'ra. It adds a more dimension to the Goa'uld. It allows for a question of why do the Goa'uld feel the need to enslave when others do not. If I have a criticism it's that later episodes pertaining vyo the Tok'ra contradict this one. I love the ending of Sam being depressed.

This is one of my favourite episodes, sadly it has so much unused potential:
Jolinar should IMHO have survived or, at best, gone into Jack (which would give her a better chance at survival, because Jack surely would not accept defeat when faced with the Ashrak, he'd fight even if he doesn't have much of a chance!) that would cure his anti Tok'ra bias (which he doesn't know he has, yet!) right quick!
It would have made a good multi-part story (and would have given their search for the Tok'ra more urgency if they want to remove the symbiot and/or return whatever important information Jolinar had to them, hell having a Tok'ra on SG-1 would have made the alliance between Earth and the Tok'ra that much tighter IMHO!)
Sadly that's one of the major complaints I have about SG-1 (and SGA, too): That the larger story arcs often were only in the background (note: I have no problem with episodes not dealing with the larger concern, even Deep Space 9 had those during the Dominion-War and that was a hot-conflict, not just a cold-war like what Earth and the Goa'uld had for the most part!), not to mention that the SGC not fielding any technology they acquired ASAP to close the technology gap to the Goa'uld! That's so unrealistic!
