That makes me wonder how many of them have living wills..

My favourite part of this episode - the computer Technician Walter is using completely explodes in his face, sending him flying to the floor. The computer Sam is using omits a small charge which hits off her hand, causing her to flinch. And what does General Hammond do? Asks Sam if she's okay, with no regard to the poor Technician sprawled across the floor! Poor Walter.

Yea, it does seem wierd that the general shows more concern for sam than walter..

Well obviously he has a somewhat closer connection to Sam, I just found it humourous that he didn't seem to acknowledge Walter at all, despite the fact his injury was obviously more serious.

does anyone know where you can download all of season 4? I can't find it anywhere on the web. Unbox only has seasons 1 and 10 and itunes only has season 10. I've been looking all over and can't find any of the other seasons in between.

I did kinda notice that but I just assumed someone with quicker reflexes was already attending to poor Walter on the floor and getting him help off screen.

And I love this episode, I think RDA and AT did a particularly good job with their respective parts...emotional rollercoaster...wheee.

The acting really makes me forget the somewhat silly premise. I totally go with it.

And poor Walter. I kind of thought what you did about someone helping him. I do like that little exchange in the infirmary btw Sam and Walter though, acknowledging each other.

Teal'c - "In medical matters Dr. Frasier may overrule those of any rank"

ROTFLMAO

Every time they do a technical episode where Teal'c doesn't really have anything to do they give him these lines that just crack me up every time. Does anybody know if it was an artificial intelligence, an engineered "weapon," as it referred to itself, or a life form? I still don't really understand what happened at the end with Sam. This is what I have so far, Sam is sent into the bases wiring due to the fact that her body just died from the second Zat blast. After which she finds her way to the M.A.L.P. computer and is transfered back into her body. How did she get into the M.A.L.P. computer? wasn't it cut off?

sam was sent into the computer mainframe because the entity did it.

when colonel o'neill told the entity that it was going to send more malps to it's planet if it didn't release sam, it made the decision right then to do something. it couldn't return to the mainframe itself because it had outgrown it. it wanted to save its own entity/life forms more than it wanted to save itself.

when jack corned it in the hallway, entity decided what to do. it decided to send sam's mind/soul into the computer mainframe, and then sacrifice itself so jack wouldn't make his threats real. if it had sacrificed sam too, jack might have been so mad that he would have sent those malps anyways. in doing what it did, it saved sam, and it's own life forms 'because' it saved sam.

i haven't watched the ep in a while, but it's one of my top five eps and i think i'm remembering it right.

amanda was AWESOME!!

Right. By the time O'Neill fired the 2nd shot, Sam had already been transferred out, so the zat didn't kill her.

That all sounds correct, but the question remains how did the entity put sam into the M.A.L.P. room computer if they had seperated it from the computer mainframe. It wouldn't make sense that they would keep it hooked up would they?

Yes I understood that.

I love that Walter got zapped in this episode.

i didn't enjoy the plot about the entity possessing sam and transferring her consciousness. imo, even for sci-fi, it's too far-fetched. linking the mind to the computer, i can believe since the mind is still in the body. but in this case, it's different.

does mind = soul?
