The story itself it just so-so but the quotes/moments make this episode far better than most episodes in S4-8.
My favorites:- The way the Stargate theme swells over the drumbeat at the beginning when the doomed team member tells his partner to get back to the gate. (Notice how they never use the Stargate cue anymore?)
- "Does it say Colonel anywhere on my uniform?"
- Daniel's furtive glance at Jack when discussing Jonas' mental instability with Carter.
- Jack's biblical knowledge (or lack thereof).

And so begins Sam's trend of obsessive boyfriends. She really runs through them.
What was good:
a. Sam. In this case, I'm more than slightly biased; I like Sam-centered eps. So forgive me. But I think AT did a good job, and I love the bit where Sam beans Hanson's flunky--Baker, I think. Yay! And the part when Teal'c told Daniel that they wouldn't have been able to stop her if they'd wanted to. Double yay! Oh, and the background story was nicely handy for writing fic.
b. Jamala. He was so funny (and being cute doesn't hurt him much, either! ).
c. The opener. I. Was. Hooked.
What wasn't so good:
a. During the nighttime ambush, where the natives kidnapped Connor, I am sorry but I could swear that some of them were wearing egg crates on their heads. Weird.
b. Why didn't Connor just go through the 'gate after they shot Frakes? He could have made it.
c. I think the 'gate shut down early; Connor didn't go through and it shut down WAY under the 38-minute window.
Still a good episode. Sam-centered generally equals good. (Excepting Emancipation).
