Yessssss. RDA's acting in this is so good. I started to go off on a whole thing about it and then decided I needed to focus my attentions on Janet because I will have many more opportunities to wax poetic about RDA and Jack. ♥

The Daniel and Teal'c relationship is so stunning. I'll probably wait to talk about that relationship until "Forever in a Day," but it is so important to me the way SG-1 characters identify the difference between villains and people who do not great stuff. (I wrote about this in the more "Brief Candle" review you'll see next week.)

Emotionally Daniel could easily blame Teal'c, and I wouldn't be surprised if there's a beat between "The Enemy Within" and "Emancipation" in which he puts it together and has to process Teal'c's role as first prime, but after he takes that time, he understands that it's not Teal'c's fault. Yeah, he picked Sha're, but any woman he picked was going to be someone's Sha're. Picking the most attractive woman likely meant fewer women would die, too, so if Teal'c didn't do his horrific job well, he'd have to cause even more harm. (Okay, this thought is too well formed in my head. Does the show actually address this in some way I'm forgetting or am I synthesizing fanfic?)
