I don't really understand the bad rep that this episode got. I enjoyed this episode. Yeah, Seth seemed very complacent in his environment and ill prepared for an assault from an enemy who understands him. But I liked the bit where he could tell that SG1 were lying to him face to face. That was a powerful moment that made him a bit more intimidating.
I previously thought the hand device was a bit lame, they only seem to knock people over with no serious damage, and especially considering it's a gou'alds weapon of choice. But not any more after seeing Seth pummeled one foot deep into the ground (and presumably breaking every bone in his body!) They pack serious power! And the fact that only a gou'ald or ex host can make it work would only make him seem more god-like to his followers.
