Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Heh. I like Stargate According To Katie.

Before he does this, Lantash talks about how much Sam means to him. All the other guys standing around wonder vaguely if they could take a Buffyesque approach to the whole goa'uld problem and just get them all to fall for Sam.

t snickers I found it touching both Martouf *and* Lantash lurved Sam. (Unlike the whole Anise/Freya deal.) Even Martouf's *symbiote* was all about nobility and pining. Poor Martouf. Poor Lantash. Poor Elliot. It was a pity fest.

You forgot about the part where the entire viewing audience went into convulsions of laughter at Daniel's costume. With the... metal plate thingie and the wads of rolled-up bandages on his arms. Or was that in the first part?

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

Well, it was in both parts, but I figured Suela had already hit the convulsions of laughter the first time around, so I didn't need to mention it.

(One of my favorite heard-second-hand conversations ever: FAN A: And this is the episode where Daniel goes undercover as a slaveboy to the goa'uld. FAN B: Seriously? Like, in canon? This is the best show ever! FAN A: Yeah, well, you haven't seen the outfit yet.)

Wait, Last Stand also has that creepy scene with the slave who really, really wants to be a host, right? That was a pretty good scene, actually.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Don't we get to spend quality time with Daniel's shoulders in these two eps?

Well, kind of. But the armbands! Man, I just can't take it seriously.

There are components of the show for which I discard seriousness.

Primarily, those involve Daniel or Teal'c's upper body.

I will take any excuse, be grateful, and wish for more.

Oh yeah. Kind of difficult to summon the oost when your oost-object looks like a reject from an under-budgeted 50's bible epic.

Michael Shanks looks so constipated in those scenes, and I don't blame him. He was probably going all, "I can't believe I'm wearing what I'm wearing. Note to self: kill the costume designer. Man, these armbands itch like hell." or something similar.

Or possibly "five episodes until I die. Five episodes until I die. And then they'll never stick me in a stupid costume again!"

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, is that episode coming up soon? I missed it last time around with reruns. I guess I should watch it.

Yeah, Daniel Dies (again!) next Monday.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

The question I had last night (and I was skipping back and forth between the ep and baseball, so I might've missed the explanation) was that if Daniel was worried that Osiris would recognize him, but why wasn't he worried that the Chinese Goa'uld would recognize him? They'd met before at least once.
