A Hundred Days (317)

I imagine they pulled the gate vertical (there were certainly enough villagers for that) and waited for Earth to dial through.

After that, it's just a matter of power, which the SG team could bring with them.

General Hammond told Teal'c it was a one-way trip. And what technology did the village have to raise the gate?

If they could build houses I'm sure they could think of a way to pull up the gate. Hammond told Teal'c it was a one-way trip because if he failed to reach the surface in time, he'd die.

Jack got trapped on a planet for 3 months, and Teal'c saved his butt (with help from Sam)

Actually, it was Sam who "saved his butt", with help from Teal'c. Without the technology that Sam invented/helped build, Teal'c would not have been able to get to Jack. Teal'c did some heavy duty digging. Sam spent 3 months inventing and helping to build the machine that dug out the cavern that Teal'c was able to gate to. Teal'c spent (at most) four hours digging his way to the surface and then Jack helped with the rest of the digging.

Hammond told Teal'c that if he didn't reach the surface it was a one way trip. As to technology to raise the gate--I imagine they had at least the same kind of technology that built the pyramids. Block and tackle can lift amazing weights.

So this means that there was no other gating for Daniel, Sam and Teal'c for a period of three months? I remember once Jacob Carter asked Sam how often they gated, and she said once or twice a week. Given the experiential overload of gating altogether, I can't imagine a human able to process so much even if only gating once or twice a week.

Teal'c was probably on loan to other SG teams, sparring with others in the gym and/or training recruits in lok'nel/bashaak. Daniel was most likely helping out as a linguist/archaeologist/anthropologist, cataloging artifacts and doing research in his lab.

Sam seemed to be solely working on the particle beam accelerator to make sure they could get Jack and the stranded Edorans back to where they belong.

Well, for Sam, it is highly unlikely that she did anything else besides work on the particle accelerator for 3 months. Daniel and Teal'c, however, might have been loaned out to other teams during the same period of time, since I doubt very much the U.S. Military would be willing to "waste" their abilities by keeping them on base while Sam was otherwise busy. Daniel and Teal'c have both been loaned out to other teams on occasion, and I think Sam may have also been in later episodes.

The quote from Jacob Carter was said in Season 2 ("The Tok'ra), I believe. At that time, they were still finding out just how many places they could go to. In later years, it is conceivable that they were going through the gate more frequently than once or twice a week.

Though I do have to wonder what sort of damage was being done to human bodies who went through the gate as often as those people did over the course of 8-10 years.

[Dimes]

I really liked this episode!

[sholva1]

Just re watched this ep. I like laira and love that she wrestled with her conscience before doing the right thing

[Lt.Colonel John Sheppard]

The only thing I remember about this episode through out the years is O'Neill's line when he says "Teal'c, You are ONE Stubborn Son of a *****!" after he sees Teal'c trying to dig himself to the surface.

[Sam-n-Jack-in-<3]

Kind of a bittersweet episode, for both Jack and...ah, what's her name...? *shrugs*

Have to say this, though. The music is great.

[Zaany]

Anyone happen to know the location where the scene where they were walking on the bridge and the old man was fishing was shot ?

[pepsiadikt]

Just saw this episode for the first time and I don't know maybe it's just me, but if I lived there and had a chance to live someplace else for 3 months, where everything was a lot more fun and interesting and life wasn't nearly as difficult, I wouldn't want to go back. Makes me wonder if they all went back.

There's a good chance those people, depending on how many, were actually staying on base or some sort of "refugee camp", meaning they probably didn't see any of the good stuff...
