Todd can be a very nice guy when he wants to.

Machines/computers lying to preserve/carry out prime commands is an old trope, but a good one. The machines that act this way in these tales are simply doing their best with the tools and programming they have. I always find this scenario interesting and tragic.

[@Erin-Thor]

Wasn’t “Palin” in the first Stargate Atlantis episode in the village being attacked and they brought them all back to the ship?

[@1ukzje]

He was one of the athosians, he played Halling who was the father to Jinto (shown in the episode 'Hide and Seek' 01x02) guessing he got removed due to being an unpopular character and the actor was recast as 'Todd' the wraith who had sick humour.

[@Erin-Thor]

@@1ukzje -- Darn you, you made me do homework! He, Christopher Heyerdahl, was in episode 1x1 "Rising" that aired on July 16, 2004 as the character Halling. Darn good memory you have! Color me impressed! When you mentioned that I remember him, or his voice, as Todd one of the Wraiths, but I was not even thinking of all of the other episodes he was in. Awesome! And yes, he was in a lot of episodes (list below), including Sanctuary the Spin off series with Amanda Tapping. Heyerdahl was also in Stargate SG1, a 2003 episode as Pallan.

2:30 What is that weird dub they did? It's not any of their voices.

[@ze_rubenator]

ADR, it's very common all across TV and Film. If for whatever reason the original audio from the set is unusable, either because it's bad quality, noisy or somehow corrupted, they have to rerecord the voices.

[@knightindex2114]

what ep is this from?

[@greggweber9967]

Gaslighting?

[@SuperlativeCG]

That looks authentic.

[@jossgoyanko7006]

One of the coolest one-offs in SG1. However, I think the moral of the episode is more complicated than "Tech bad". The people in this episode claim to have rejected the destructive ways that ruined their world, and yet they are totally dependent on their little, self-contained technological bubble. Rather than confront the myriad decisions that brought their world to ruin or try to repair the damage they've done to the environment, they use technology to ignore the problem for as long as possible. So when the bubble starts eliminating people, it's really just doing what they've told it to do; solve their problems for them without burdening them with the responsibility of making hard choices.

[@dmclegg66]

Just like in I robot the Ai was doing exactly what is was told to do.

[@SioxerNikita]

@@dmclegg66 It is quite significantly different. The AI in "I, Robot" specifically said it rewrote its protocols to allow for what it was told to. The AI here quite literally does what it is supposed to. Preserve as much life as possible while being non-disruptive, while keeping the citizens happy. If they left, it couldn't preserve their life. It would break its protocol, and it would lose its purpose. The AI from "I, Robot" would certainly allow the citizens to leave, since it runs on the basic premise that it want to preserve as much human life as possible. This one is never implied to have rewritten its protocols. It is merely doing what it is told.
