Stargate SG-1 - Season 7 - Homecoming - The Tau'ri (and Teal'c...and Jonas...and Ba'al) strike back

Two deals made with the bad guys result in two radically different outcomes.

[@TheNerdForAllSeasons]

The guy who played Anubis' First Prime made the most out of his scenes lol.

[@Ragitsu]

Professional camera mugger.

[@Turk3YbAstEr]

Michael Adamthwite was actually a fan of the series before he was cast as He'rak

[@samuelfawell9159]

Shame he didn’t get more he was great for the overacting. But it did fit the character

[@xhagast]

@@samuelfawell9159 Exactly, lol. And remember, it is only arrogance if you don't have the power to back it. If you can destroy a world the people of the world ARE worms.

[@samuelfawell9159]

@@xhagast very true, not to mention, Anubis was the closest he could have been to an actual god.

[@frederalbacon]

02:48 - I'm fairly certain RDA actually got his finger pinched in the staff mechanism when it closed. It's too subtle of an acting choice for the O'Neill character usually, and it's never really been established that getting your finger pinched was a hazard of the staff weapons. I think he got his finger pinched, stayed in character, finished the scene, and it wound up adding a bit of additional layering to the exchange, so they kept it.

[@MisterPuck]

Note Anubis’ First Prime doesn’t stop the chatter until Jonas starts saying things to unite them. I also love the way he goes to stand right next to O’Niell and in the middle of SG-1. He knows O’Niell knows what he’s going to do, and he stares at him the entire time until he does it.

[@TheValentineEnemy]

"You were right! He was in fact, an idiot!"

[@wildcardcomet]

There's a reason that Anubis's first Prime always stuck in my memory decades later. Colonel is exclusively a military term for Tau'ri. Yet even though he has hatred and absolute disgust for O'neill and his team, earth, and anyone that opposes his Lord Anubis, he still addresses things accordingly to their culture. Even though he views other planets as beneath him and his God, he still doesn't think they are worthless to disregard a nothing. There's just something about it that makes me absolutely squee whenever the Goa'uld and Jaffa address O'Neil as Colonel. Also here's your obligatory Stargate quote tax: " Our Shields are of no use!"

[@pyrioncelendil]

Two L's. There's a Colonel Jack O'Neil with one L and he has no sense of humor.

[@Suthek]

Maybe he just doesn't know any better and thinks that's his name.

[@jenniferstewarts4851]

Comically, we see a few times where its actually assumed his first name is... Colonel. a few aliens "understand it isn't" as ranks change later on.

[@DomWeasel]

I always liked that Her'ak gives his thoughts to Anubis who actually listens to him.

[@Ragitsu]

@@jenniferstewarts4851 "Mister."

[@proffurrypaws]

I love that Anubis pulls a Dr. Wily here, escaping on a little saucer ship

[@Ragitsu]

We can't see his eyebrows!

[@bruceleenstra6181]

But what about his First Prime? Did he gate into an exploding ship? Did Anubis move it aboard that quickly? Or was it always on the saucer? (that would be a little strange)

[@TomalakGeretkal]

@@bruceleenstra6181 He can't have been even trying to gate to the ship; two gates that close together share an address. I don't remember there being a gate aboard anyway. He was probably retreating to one of Anubis's strongholds.

[@Shiirow]

"I'll get you next time, O'neill, next time," Anubis said calmly.

[@mattboesch8907]

"Blasted Meddling Kids...."

[@kuhljager2429]

"Publicly is fine"

[@chrismartin934]

And don’t you just love how O’Neill milks the shot when his fingers get clipped when the staff weapon closes? RJT’s comic timing is so good I wondered if Carter had actually keep herself from cracking up! Too funny!

[@Ragitsu]

Random thought: Carter is the only member of SG-1 that has never fired a staff weapon.

[@ebee-uz1oz]

that's right.....maybe manhandled one, and tossed to someone else.

[@Ragitsu]

@@ebee-uz1oz It's odd. Maybe she'll lose that sweet Fabrique Nationale sponsorship she picked up in Season 5?

[@SupComRaiden2]

Here I thought I was the only person who realized this.

[@llindner1983]

Maybe she is not tall enough to use a staff weapon properly. if I remind it correct. only the taller mebers of the Hak'tyl are using staff weapons. Maybe it is required to have a specific arm length for it.

[@rh906]

Who needs to fire a staff weapon when you got decent ta-tas to distract your foes with.

[@rycs16]

One of THE best fight scenes in SG-1.

[@I_SuperHiro_I]

Damn she really slapped him lol.

[@xxZerosumxx]

Its one of those scenes that always makes me crack up when I see it!

[@Theomite]

She aimed too high and hit him in the temple, not the cheek and that caught him off guard. But she didn't flinch and stayed in character, but my guess is the dude (and the Jaffa behind him) didn't, which is probably why it cuts right there.

[@joejose8433]

​@@Theomitesometimes directors don't want no fake slap they want the after 20 cuts😅😊 Sissy spacek had to slap Marissa told me in a seen it took 50 cut Marissa said that in between breaks she had to put ice packs on her cheek man I'm telling you something you know directors they are really demanding but they got to sell it😊 in the old UFO TV series back in the😅 there was a slapping scene between the guy that played the commander of the year for organization and his second in command and the director discussed the scene and said you got to slap him he's okay I can do that well guess what happened the director stop the things that wait a minute I want you to slap him for real damn it so the guy that played the commander of the UFO division had to really slap the guy for real after 40 takes😮😅😮

[@Experiment632]

Herak definitely respected and perhaps even admired O'Neill even though they were enemies.

[@mattboesch8907]

I always love jack's gesture to he'rak in the other guys at the stargate.

[@EdwardTCBlake]

I have made a separate arrangement, pray I do not make another separate arrangement.

[@AzguardMike]

we would be honoured if you would join us!

[@mattboesch8907]

This deal's getting worse all the time.

[@TheValentineEnemy]

The collateral damage must have been cute to repair....especially since the broken pieces of the mothership probably fell down the surface...aaand the missed shots fired by the Ha'taks... If you haven't already you should put up the clip of Teal'c and Yu's first prime convincing Ba'al to take command of the united system lord fleet....I think it was a lil funny if I remember correctly. ^^

[@МихаилРадулов-й4т]

Whats funny is did Ba`al or any other Goa eventually clapped that planet ?

[@Ragitsu]

Jonas: "I was shot in the shoulder; I guess I'm now off the team. How convenient!"

[@danielk5780]

Apparently, the Staff Weapon sucked all his life out of his shoulder.

[@steve64464]

Remember "laugh in the face of the enemy even when inappropriate" 😀

[@Ragitsu]

Ba'al goes from nearly blasting Anubis out of the sky to serving as his lapdog.

[@reilly_sharky_reese]

One could argue it was intentionally to gain greater access to ancient technology.

[@Ragitsu]

@@reilly_sharky_reese One wonders why Anubis would _ever_ take an oath of fealty from Ba'al seriously.

[@GabrielusPrime]

@@Ragitsu One wonders why ANY Goa'uld would take an oath of fealty from another Goa'uld seriously...

@@GabrielusPrime They wouldn't. Everybody was using everybody. Eventually everybody would betray/kill everybody.

[@douglarochelle2620]

Isn’t it shortly after this that Anubis pulls the Kull warriors out of the old bag of tricks?

[@d.s.151]

I just realised that Glynis Davies, who plays the Andari ambassador Noor in this scene, also played Eli's mother Maryann Wallace in Stargate Universe.

[@Not-Ap]

It's amazing Baal was able to pull off a attack like this against a ship as advanced as Anubis's mothership with only 5 or 6 Ha'tak when later Yu's system lord flotilla of at least a dozen or more Ha'tak didn't even make a dent. Of course Baal's ships were hammering away for a longer period of time so maybe that makes the difference idk. Regardless this show's off how cunning and ruthless the Goa'uld can be in war. If a enemy like the Ori or Wraith were to invade the milky at the peak of there empire it makes you wonder how it would have gone down when both adversaries are equally without ethics.

[@jbz4788]

Yu’s attack on Anubis’ ship was before this not after. And they stated at some point that the shield strength is significantly weaker while in atmosphere. Add element of surprise (likely not having shields active when the ships first turned up to not waste power) and the result is one blown up ship in very little time.

[@barbiquearea]

@@jbz4788 Not to mention one of the generators blowing up when that Goa'uld scientist's Naquadria experiment went awry. That must have done serious damage to the shields and other infrastructure of the ship.

[@SoranoGuardias]

​@@barbiquearea Plus, the ship was already damaged from O'neill and Carter's attack run with the F-302.

[@uberjens]

While I can't remember his name, I've always like Anubis' First Prime - but the writers did him dirty in this scene. He allows Jonas to sort of finish his monologue, despite ordering him to stop, and then out of all the people he could've killed, he goes for the one person who's stupid enough to help him?

[@snoopy_peanuts_77]

he said "Jaffa" as he walked out but did not say "Kree"....wtf

[@philippebarillecavalier9275]

I think Anubis was a low point in the series. Unconvincing half ascension thing, invincible zombie army, magic crystals making ship invincible, then somehow about to wipe out all lifeform at a galactic scale, just because.

[@mitchellmelkin4078]

Philippe Baril Lecavalier, But we wouldn't have been able to meet Jim, who was pretty interesting, and well acted.

[@Theomite]

I liked Anubis, because he was Uber-Evil, I just think they tried to make him do too much. The kull warriors were a shitty idea though, I will agree.

[@DomWeasel]

@@Theomite I thought the Kull Warriors were brilliant. The Goa'uld have been using the Jaffa for millennia with their extremely inefficient weapons and tactics and Anubis changes the power balance drastically by taking advantage of technology mostly already available to them but they never used because they never thought to. The Kull make sense too given the Goa'uld mindset; you have soldiers that are unquestioningly loyal and devoted. And they weren't invincible. The Tau'ri and Tok'ra quickly developed a weapon that could take them down, they just never disseminated it to the System Lords. The only real question is why more people didn't use their armour the way Vala did, being immune to that weapon and therefore invulnerable.

[@canisarcani]

@@DomWeasel this, soo much this. ive always wondered why the sg teams didnt start using at least bits if them.

[@DomWeasel]

@@canisarcani Same reason they made the Sodan cloaking device unusable; it would have given them too much of an advantage. One of the hardest parts of being a writer is finding balance.
