Rite of Passage (506)

Can Cassandra use hand device and healing device? (dont know the proper terms)
I think they mentioned in some episode that she has naquadah (sp?) in her blood...
Or am I wrong?

Well, as far as I know those are the proper terms (although the hand device is sometimes called a ribbion device.) Anyway, I would assume that she can use them, but has never needed to.

Hey, thanks.
I wasnt sure if its true

[Lord Zedd]

did she have naquadah in her blood or was it the tiny bomb in her boody that has naquahdah ?When do we get to see her again?

[berenikee]

I thought that she has naquadah in her blood. I think they mention it in the singularity but I am not sure.
I want to see her again

Yeah, she still has the naqahdah (or naquadah, I'm sure it's been spelt both ways in the show) in her blood that remains from the bomb otherwise she wouldn't have been able to sense Nirrti in her room.
But is that enough to use the Hand/Ribbon Device or a Healing device? I thought it was due to the Goa'uld proteins in a host's body. Sam has hers left from Jolinar and Kendra possibly had some from her Goa'uld...

Anyway, I seriously hated Cassie for the whole episode. What a brat. The only part I liked her was in the end with Sam but that hardly excuses the rest of her behaviour. I hate that kinda girls.
I didn't like this episode much, although I liked Teryl's acting and the whole "My daughter's dieing and this Goa'uld won't help her" thing they had going on.
And of course the theme of Goa'ulds genetically engineering better hosts and the like. It makes them scarier if they are also scientists and researchers than the unidimensional "I will take over the world" loonies.

-So the SGC still has Nirrtis' invisibility device, yet we never hear about it again? (Stupid plot holes)

-Were the cylinders that were encased in the glass rectangles that we saw in Nirrtis' lab, were they blood samples or were they sample of bioweapons?

-Why don't we ever hear about those devices that they found in Nirrtis' lab?

-Angry Fraiser. 'Help my daughter or I'll put a bullet through your hosts head'. I thought doctors took an oath about not maiming or killing people?

[fair_nymph]

shouldn't Sam have at least mentioned the possibility that her survival was assured?

I assumed that the main reason Sam wouldn't mention anything would be to limit problems of causality. Basically, to assure that the future occurs as planned, she must not change the natural course of things, and must act like she has no knowledge of future events.

I too found Cassie's character very annoying in this episode, although I can accept that maybe her hormones/hak'tar chemicals were responsible. I just hope she calms down/becomes more likeable in the future.

I did find it odd that she was already so grown up, it seemed like maybe she had accelerated growth? She seemed quite young, maybe 7 at the oldest when they found her, she was 13 here no? Or is my memory not so great?

I loved Nirrti, she's a great character, and well portrayed. But a bit of a ***** for telling Jack she wouldn't uphold her end of the deal if the tables had been turned. I guess I shouldn't expect Goa'uld to have any honour but somehow I'm always shocked to find they don't. I guess I expect honour in everyone, by nature.

I also liked Frasier's drastic measures -- pulling the gun on Nirrti. Obviously it was a case of personal feelings influencing her conduct, but I thought it was realistic and besides, I love seeing Janet with a gun. She can be quite the badass, although we haven't seen this side of her since 'Hathor'.

If she has, her future children will be very intersting...

"First, do no harm."

But under the circumstances, if it was your kid, don't you think you might be willing to ignore that?

[QuiGonJohn]

I was thinking right after Nirti went thru the gate, they should have done a manual shutdown, like they did in Red Sky, that would have effectively killed her.

With all the people that talk about 'ships', I was wondering if they ever thought of a Daniel/Janet ship. Seems Daniel was quite concerned about how she was holding up.

[Stricken]

Good Episode well written and acted, a nice way to follow up the Cassie/Nirti story which we havent gotten around to.

[walter_MacChevron]

Pretty good episode.....i want to see Cassie back!!

[artemis_chosen]

I love this episode. The scene with Janet holding a gun on Nirrti has to be one of my favourite scenes.

True Cassie was annoying but I remember being that bad and often worse when I was her age.

[captain jake]

I dont know if it was my favourite scene but I thought it was pretty intense. It showed a whole new side to Dr. Fraiser.
