I'm not a big fan of NID/Trust/conspiracy stories, so this one started out with a strike against it for me.
I loved the Teal'c parts; CJ was wonderful and showed a tremendous range from anger and determination to resignation and acceptance. But make no mistake about it - Teal'c has not given up this fight even if he's lost this round. I like the way the Jaffa arc has played out slowly through the season.
I'm not a big Baal fan, so the eye candy didn't do much for me. In fact, while I do appreciate eye candy, in general it's not enough to carry an episode for me, no matter who is the sweet thing in question.
Why did that woman in the diner confide in Daniel? That didn't make sense to me.
I liked that they're finally SG1 again, but I did feel that the patch scene didn't belong in a mostly Earth-bound episode. They should have put on their SG1 patches and then all gone thru the gate together. As it was, it seemed like someone said, look we're seven episodes into the season, let's make it official even if this isn't the most appropriate episode to do it.
I'm starting to like Mitchell and I'm glad he's been introduced slowly. I'm ready to actually care about the character in the next episode.
How can someone be "not exactly" single? Is Carter so incapable of commitment that she can't determine her status? What a cold fish. But I must say she's looking more professional this season and less like a Felgar's fantasy chick.
There were a few cute lines: Beats flying coach, Kiss on tour. But not enough to save the episode.
Overall, this was an ep that had nothing for me. I miss Vala. I miss Dr. Lee. I even missed the Priors. I miss the epic feel of the first part of the season.
