I'm still expecting Boba Fett to cart Jack away....
Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I have a plan.
"Too much?"
Such a nice episode.
I wonder though: does the general population still not know about the invasion? Or was it still just 'a meteor shower?' Because that must have looked like one helluva shower.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Well, most of the action close to Earth took place in or over Antarctica, so there aren't a lot of potential witnesses.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hey, I kinda liked that. The shoulder squeeze was golden, the cavalry is always appreciated, and "That's SG-1" is going to make me miss Hammond so terribly much.

Is he gone, gone? Or, might there be special appearances? I am sad. I adore DSD. Losing Fraser and Hammond. Sucks.

I thought the ship was going to blow, and we were going to lose chevron guy too.
Whew.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
JenP: He's not going to be a regular next year. Whether he might make a guest appearance or two I don't know; it seems likely to me that he'd be in the season opener at least, but I haven't read anything one way or another.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Well, I thought the implication from Hammond's talk with President Hayes was that Hammond would become the vice president now that Kinsey'd got his weaselly ass fired. I fully expect to see Hayes from time to time in S8; ditto Hammond.
I totally bought both the Bra'tac and Hammond death fake-outs. They did good job selling the urgency of those moments. (Or I'm really naive.)

I thought the job that the president wanted Hammond for was to crew the Prometheus. Do the times match up for that?

I bought the Bra'tac death fake-out entirely. The bit with Jack healing his wound was a pretty big HSQ moment for me.
I wasn't quite as worried about Hammond. I didn't even think about the possibility of Hammond becoming VP. I did think it was way cool that he got to captain the Prometheus into battle.
