Stargate SG-1 - Season 8 - Endgame - Teal'c to the rescue / Escape

He always looks dashing in a cape, doesn't he?

[@andyt2k]

2 seconds of Teal'c and the fight is done

[@Ragitsu]

That's why the DM split the party.

[@johngregory4801]

Smoked 'em.

[@BYoNexus]

Stargate was so good, because they carefully expanded on details. Like, i had never realized this is a prime example of why Jack would want to be reassigned, as he was in a position to either order Prometheus To destroy the Al'Quesh, with Daniel and Sam on board (not knowing about Teal'c yet), or let them escape with the Gate. Imagine having to make that order for a team you spent years beside.

[@DayneTreader]

For future reference, it's spelled Al'kesh

[@Ragitsu]

@@DayneTreader "Al'Quesh" is a cool variant spelling.

What's even cooler about the scene is the look of confusion on everyone's faces after Jack says "yeah, tough choice". They didn't get it, just how hard it was to have to make that call, it was easy for Daniel to say he should have just blown it up (and Jack would have too if he was still doing missions). I think it's a really good example of his development

I love how Sam with her hands tied is still better in hand to hand combat than Daniel. But he wins by "talking", which has always been his strengh. Little details that made Stargate so unique.

So satisfying to see Daniel of all people THROW A PUNCH like that. He grew from naive pacifist to warrior throughout stargate BUT retained his curiosity completly. He still "rather diplomacy than combat"

[@Aurora-313]

Daniel is a pacifist-turn-warrior done right in my opinion. He very much leans on his roots, he'll talk and negotiate and investigate, but when push comes to shove, he does and will throw down.

[@kypdurron62]

I don't think he was ever a naive pacifist.

That clips reveals how they worked the wormhole terminator appearance. Watch the two guys dive to the ground when the effect starts and the 'bubbles' at the center. You see the men do a double dip and the bubbles jerk as the animation reverses. P.S. Sam kicks butt even with her hands tied behind her back :)

Ok that death was surprisingly realistic. Shot a hole through him (taking out his spine) so he just crumples backwards.

[@kettch777]

Big ol' plot hole here--they act like getting off the ship was crucial, along with the gate. But they could have easily overpowered the woman in the cockpit and taken control of the al'kesh and just returned to Earth. In fact, it would be the smart thing to do, rather than the leave the Trust in control of a hyper-capable alien ship they'd already shown they could get up to plenty of mischief with.

[@BYERE]

IKR? That’s my question too. It seems silly to leave all that tech and intel, not to mention the ship, in the hands of the Trust. Even if it went to hyperspace before they could overpower her, and she had locked out the controls, Carter would have just jargoned her way into taking them out of hyperspace and turning the ship around.

[@robertdrexel2043]

I always thought that either they didn't know how many other Trust Agents where onboard, or couldn't make it to the cockpit in time to prevent the ship from jumping into hyperspace. Remember the Prometheus was seconds away from blowing the ship away when they detected the beacon. Shrug. Still somewhat of a plot hole but not all that big really.

Daniel probably glues he's glasses on before any mission in case there is any fighting and so they would as if magically stay on as glued.

Never checked but Daniels glasses might have a safety strap or the kind of frames with curving ear hooks that nearly circle your whole ear.

"the one bad guy running around with that mini-machine gun" It was either a machine pistol or a pistol with a three-round burst option.

I've always wondered, how does that boom lift fit inside the gate room? All the SGC corridors are like tunnels 😅 Do they have like, a plant and equipment room two stories up that opens into the gate room and cranes everything down? Like the hanger for the puddle jumpers in Atlantis? 🤔🤷‍♂️😅

[@Drago_Whooves]

the gate room is a missile silo, probably maintenance rooms and stuff with big equipment, there is also a space where they once parked a puddle Jumper I believe

They could have stayed and found out where the Trust went, but they would also have no way back home except by ship. That was the SGC's stargate, the only one on Earth. Priority was getting it back to base.

@@iondustt Maybe, but don't forget the teams stranded off-world. Would you want to be in one of them and needing to leave in a hurry and you can't dial home because there's no gate at that address?

​@@samsonguy10k It was a while after the gate wanished so all teams probably already returned to alpha site

[@gabrielmichelson9830]

I agree. Between the 3 of them, it shouldn't have been hard to retake the ship and return it to earth. But then, there are a bunch of inconsistencies in the story. When they're trying to destroy Anubis' superweapon mothership, they sneak on board using the rings so they can locate the 'venting shaft' and transmit it to the F302. If they could get on board, they could get a naquadria-enhanced nuke on board. You'd think that'd be easier.

[@justice_1337]

Why didn't they just retake over the ship since it was 3v1?

[@user-qt5hj1sk4n]

У мене до цього серіалу тільки одне запитання. Тільки одне" , А ДЕ КИТАЙЦІ"!

[@BYERE]

I know it’s a cargo ship, but given their designed to be flown by just 1 person, the cockpit area is REALLY spacious. You’d think it would be smaller to add more cargo space. Also, why didn’t Teal’c just rush to the front of the ship and take out the other woman before she got the ship to go to hyperspace? It’s literally only the next room over

[@Ragitsu]

The Al'kesh is a mid-range bomber (as opposed to a cargo ship).

[@Tantalus010]

Teal'c probably didn't want to risk missing the shot. Yes, it's short range and he's an excellent marksman, but there are no guarantees in actual combat. Too many things can go horribly wrong if he misses in the cockpit: he could damage the controls (which could do any number of terrible things in a sci-fi plot) or simply punch a hole through the glass, which would explosively decompress the whole cockpit.

[@BYERE]

@@Tantalus010 That's fair, but when I say "take out", he wouldn't necessarily have to shoot her. Him, Sam, and Daniel could have entered from both sides of the cockpit and forced her to surrender by each training weapons at her (so that she wouldn't have a chance to move or attack without the others taking her down)... or he could have just bull-rushed and wrestled her to the ground, as I doubt she'd have been any kind of physical match for Teal'c. That way, the SGC would not only have recovered the stargate, the team, and the intel... but also have captured her as a prisoner for interrogation.

[@BYERE]

@@d.s.151 That's my mistake. Been a long while since I watched SG-1. Even so, there's a lot of room in the back of the ship (presumably for bomb storage), and not much need for such a large cockpit.
