8 or 9.

8 or 9.

Thanks. I'm going to be going with 8.

Actually, hedwig & Sparky, then never said how old he was. He could've been as old as 10 (going by the appearance of the boys they hired to play him).

Basically in the 8-10 range. That helps.

I go by appearance and stuff he seems to be interested in. And guessing.

Guessing is usually involved!

I have mix feelings about this episode.
I like the part on the base : Teal’c and TV, Sam and Daniel studying the crystal.
I don’t like the part with the crystal copy of Jack, how easy he/it was going from place to place not having difficulties with Earth transportation and customs. And my biggest problem in this episode: Sara. She was married to Jack, and a kid with him and lived with him we don’t know how long and she didn’t notice that his behavior is strange, that it’s not him? It made her look stupid.

Do we even know how long they were separated after Charlie died?

He clearly hadn't talked to her in a long time, and considering his line of work it probably wasn't so farfetched that she didn't immediately realized something was off with him. They hadn't seen each other in a long time, people do change you know.

In Children of the Gods Jack said that Sarra left when he was on Abydos. This is still season one so it would not be longer than two years.

Two years -- a lot can happen in two years,especially if you haven't seen each other in that time span.

I like this episode, especially the O'Neill/O'Neil scene. It's very emotional in the original version, unfortunately the German synchronized version lacks some of the emotions. Sometimes, when I have a bit time, I compare the two versions - the original ones are better, because some puns and emotions get lost.

I thank every god and goddess in existence Stargate was never dubbed in Dutch, although my sister and I once dubbed a scene for laughs... even our dad who isn't a stargate watcher joined in and then we completely went off the rails.

A rather depressing episode, even if the crystal entities were interesting. Fun to learn more about Jack's background.

[Falcon Horus]

I really can't find anything in this episode to keep my interest.

It's great that they go back and touch upon the death of Jack's son Tyler Charlie, but I'm just not interested in it, or maybe it's the way the story is told -- I don't know. It simply doesn't phase me one way or another. I'm just meh about it, whatever.

We never see the crystals again either so it's just a forgettable episode as far as I'm concerned. However what I do love about it, and they are just adorkable, are Sam and Daniel excited about the research on the crystal. When they come running into Teal'c's quarters, like two kids about to do a science experiment they know they should ask permission for but won't get a yes for so they just do it and hope for the best. They are brilliant. And Teal'c's reaction is priceless.

Not gonna rate this episode cause I don't feel I can rate it objectively. It's not interesting to me, so I would probably rate it poor, but Richard's execution of the two O'Neill's is very good so it would have to be rated good.

Afterthought...

There's a second thing I really like about this episode -- nearly forgot to write it down here. The imagery of the bright yellow and the blue of the sky, and the green/black of SG-1 in the middle of it. I think you can guess what the image for the puzzle is going to be.
