Episode 1.16 “Singularity”
Planetary Tally: P8X987, or as the sign reads, Hanka
Season/Series Total: 15
Episodic References: “Children of the Gods”—the telescope on Jack’s roof is referenced, Daniel’s allergies are also remembered
Ah, the great battle for continuity.
Quote(s) of the Week:
Sam: But during the totality phase of the eclipse, we should be able to see matter spiraling towards it.
Jack: Actually, it’s called the accretion disc.
Daniel: Well I guess it’s easy to understand why the local population would be afraid of something like--What did you just say?
Jack: It’s just an astronomical term.
Sam: You didn’t think the Colonel had a telescope on his roof just do look at the neighbors, did you?
(long pause)
Jack: Not initially.
Daniel: Well, to a Goa’uld, she’s not as we see her. She’s a tool. Her death is a very cheap way to get rid of us.
Sam: I know I am supposed to be detached.
Daniel: Who said that?
Sam: Sometimes I forget you’re not military.
What did you just say? --Daniel
It’s just an astronomical term. --Jack
Introducing: Cassandra; Goa’uld attack vessels; Nirrti (though she’s not seen on screen, point of interest: Teal'c refers to Nirrti as a "he")
Hello, Again: Dr. Warner returns to do some exploratory surgery on Cassandra
Stargate Mythos: it is reiterated that Jack actually knows something about astronomy; SG-7 was stationed on Hanka; among standard SGC gear is hazmat masks; Teal’c doesn’t need to put on a hazmat mask; Daniel’s allergies once again surface; the Stargate is made of naquadah (I think this is the first time they name the element); Cassandra has traces of naquadah in her blood; Cassandra and Sam have a pretty tight bond; Frasier worries that we took a bacteria to Hanka that mutated and killed everyone (which is a legitimate concern); the Goa’uld use a child as a weapon against the SGC; Goa’uld mothership is first seen; Nirrti is established as a Goa’uld enemy of Apophsis and a scientist; there is an abandoned nuclear facility just 20 minutes away from Cheyenne Mountain; the SG-1 policy of “if one of us dies, we all die” is established
“Sam, protect me from Teal’c’s scary smile!”
Fashion Week: green and black and later everyone (except Teal’c) gets a hazmat suit--yellow is so flattering.
Auto Destruct: Season/Series Total: 3
Full Body Exam: SG-1 is decontaminated and then Frasier checks them all out. Frasier also performs medical exams on Cassandra.

Don’t you want to cuddle up with them both?
Daniel’s Dead: Season/Series Total: 3
Murray Alert: 1-- Teal'c wears a hat when they go for a walk in the park. Season/Series Total: 6
Techno-Babble: Sam tells Daniel what they will see during the eclipse, namely matter spiraling towards the black hole. Sam argues for staying to witness the eclipse because using this window of total darkness to photograph the black hole will--apparently--change the course of human history. Sam figures out that the device inside Cassie is made up of two halves--one side is made of iron and potassium, the other side is naquadah--combine them and you have a bomb.
Carter Translation for O’Neill: Naquadah + Potassium = Boom
Good Luck, SG-1:

Daniel Obsession:
What’s the Daniel of it?: Daniel is shocked by Jack’s knowledge of astronomy; apparently he has forgotten that Jack actually has to have a brain to make it to the rank of Colonel. On planet, Daniel and Teal’c check out the village while Sam and Jack check the observatory; they find everyone dead! Daniel does the guilt thing--when the SGC visited Hanka three months ago, the indigenous people said that “with the darkness would come the Apocalpyse” (::restraining Angel joke::); of course the SGC explained that it was just an eclipse and that there was nothing to worry about, but apparently the Hankans' mythology was correct. Daniel and Sam return to Earth with Cassie, while Teal’c and Jack stay behind to photograph the eclipse. After they arrive on Earth, Daniel debriefs with Hammond and Frasier. Daniel sits and reads outside Cassie’s door--he sort of begs Sam to let him help her take care of Cassie. Daniel is there when Sam experiments with naquadah and potassium to determine that Cassandra is a nuclear time bomb. Daniel explains that the Goa’uld used Cassandra as a Trojan horse; that they are using our humanity against us. Daniel keeps Sam company (standing entirely too close to her for my comfort) as Sam watches over Cassandra. When the crisis is averted, Daniel hits Teal’c in celebration and Teal’c gives him this look that sort of says, “do not hit me, you little shaggy-haired man.” Daniel and Sam let Cassandra swing on their arms, making me want to have little Danny-children.
Really, they make a cute family.
Translation Time/Artifact Alley:
Caffeine Habit: Daniel has a coffee as he and Sam watch the exploratory surgery on Cassandra.

Perfect Vision: Daniel has to take off his glasses to put on the hazmat mask. Daniel isn’t wearing his glasses when Janet delivers the news about the contaminated area. Daniel is glasses-less during his debriefing with Hammond and Frasier.
Oh, Danny Boy: Season/Series Total: 4
Shooting a Load: Season/Series Total: 4
Mop Up, Aisle 5: 10--glasses-less Daniel; Daniel sneezing; more glasses-less Daniel; him just listening to Sam talk; Daniel glasses-less at the debriefing; when Daniel says “we don’t know”; Daniel walking into Cassie’s room; Daniel reading in the hallway in that nice tight black shirt; Daniel explaining what happened to Cassandra; Daniel looking very wistfully at Sam as they drive to the nuclear facility
Who knew reading could be this erotic?
More droolage:
The real reason Daniel has long hair--he's really a surfer.
Let’s just have a quiet moment, okay? ::drool::

Missed my fun facts!
::waves back::
Me, too. I didn't get to work on any over the weekend, so there may be a meager offering of Fun Facts over the next two weeks. It'll be better once I'm moved in.
I should have Fun Facts on Friday (assuming I remember to go finish grabbing the caps from
Moving can be a pain in the posterior so you have my sympathies.
*werbles off to convince self that self DOES NOT really want to replace all self's icons...*
I have to say, I did like it, but I still had MAJOR beefs with it. MAJOR. Namely, with the treatment of Gwenivere and Lancelot. But eh, that's another geek route.
Just thought you'd be proud of me that I gave in!
And yeah, Danny and Sam would really make a cute couple.
Today is the hottest day of the year so far. And I just watched 'Out of Mind'. So I'm all hot inside too, because of all the naked Danny goodness. Lick him from me please. I need to take a jello cold shower now.
Still love your fun facts (I checked, rechecked and then checked the spelling again).
::licks Danny::
He giggled.
I'm so glad that you're now on Season 3. This is wonderful news.
What sort of stress? Do you need a hug?
Well, the sort is a wedding anniversary. Well, that was what kept me from watching anything at the weekend. I wanted to watch some Buffy and at least four episodes or Stargate. Gaaaah. I think I will get drunken for your trivia bonus set.
And on top of that stuff I have my usual fights with my mom about money and our house and then my aunt has some problems with my uncle and thinks it is okay for me, that she just pops in here and talks to me about whatever is bothering her. I can sit at the computer and type while she is doing that (especially since she doesn't understand one word of English), but I can't watch anything with English. I have to concentrate to understand that and I can't do that, when my aunt is babbeling on German. My brain just won't switch into English mode then. I can't explain it, I just can't watch Stargate, when anyone is talking.
Hugs are always appreciated. Especially Danny hugs. When will I get to hug him? Monday, right?
1. The format is quite different from usual.
2. You have until Thursday to respond.
sorry for the family problems. That's why I'm quite happy to be moving.
When will I get to hug him? Monday, right?
Yes. ::hugs:: I'd like to have him Sunday. My bed will be in my apartment Saturday and I want him to christen my apartment. A few times. ;)
2. You have until Thursday to respond.
Hm, does that mean I have to get so drunken on Tuesday to still be hangover on Thursday? Might be a problem at work on Wednesday. But I'll see what I can do.
That's why I'm quite happy to be moving.
I wish I could afford that. But ever since my Dad died and my brother and me inherrited (???) the house, I am constantly broke, because we didn't only get the house, but also the mortgage. But I don't want to whine about my financial problems here.
I want him to christen my apartment. A few times. ;)
Wow. You are such a naughty girl. ;) But it is a nice plan to keep the christening of the bed for our threesome. *gg*
And I'm sure he is good at christening anything.
I understand. Also, "inherited"--you were close! Thankfully I haven't had any major financial troubles like that ::knock on wood:: I figure that will happen when Nick and I buy a house and have to learn to stop buying DVDs.
Wow. You are such a naughty girl. ;)
I am. ::hangs head:: Apparently in every group of 3 girlfriends there's a smart one, a nice one, and a slut. By default, with my three friends, they decided I am the slut. :P Basically, I am not the nice one, and my other friend decided that since she hadn't had a boyfriend in almost two years that she couldn't be the slut. I really think that I'm the smart one, though. ;)
But it is a nice plan to keep the christening of the bed for our threesome. *gg*
You're coming over this weekend? I'm confused.
I don't know if this has been refigured with me, but I would like to argue that I am the nice one. Of course, "nice" is relative.
Also, with that whole christening thing? Just keep it muffled, please.
We need a third. That one was figured with me, Christy, and Nanci.
And I think comparatively, I'm actually nicer than you. Which is pretty much insane.
Also, with that whole christening thing? Just keep it muffled, please.
Of course gags will be used! That's all part of the bondage experience! :D
This is true. However, you are more slutty... sluttier... a bigger, dirtier whore than me. So I think you have that category down, whereas I have to figure out if I'm the "smart" one or the "nice" one.
Really, I don't think I fit any of those categories.
Of course gags will be used! That's all part of the bondage experience! :D
Are you saying something was missing from your chair experience?
Yes.
Daniel.
Yay! I remembered that from Smallville. Unfortunately Lex didn't spell it for me. ;)
and have to learn to stop buying DVDs.
That's the hardest part. I still haven brought Angel Season 3 dvds and Season 4 is coming out in a week here in Germany. We won't even go into not having any Buffy dvds, besides Season 2 and the second box of Season 3, which are currently at one of my friends places. One of those who try to speak English with me. Maybe I shouldn't have told you that, so you wouldn't know which eps I might watch for you questions. Well, I have a friend, or it is more a friend of a friend, who has all seven Seasons and who gave them to me once. I already send a text message to him begging to get those for a day. Hope I will.
smart one, a nice one, and a slut.
We are four girls in our group. And I'm neither. I think I'm just the weired one. Or, well the shy one. Uwe asked me today, if he could join or little girls tea club, were we try to get used to speaking English and to give him some advice, how to improve his English in a way that he can write and read like I can. So I told him to get to English message boards and get an lj and get himself some international friends. He said, he might not be able to understand a thing and loose interest. I told him to ask for meanings and all and that that basically is, what I still do today, because even I don't understand everything I read. He asked for an example. And a few minutes before he asked,
You're coming over this weekend? I'm confused.
Well, you said, you were getting a new bed, but that Danny and you would be christening the appartment. So if you keep christening every inch of the apartment, I might be there, when you actually come to christen the bed. ;)
Yes, I do.
Let’s just have a quiet moment, okay? ::drool::
Oh, okay... ::drools to the left::
:D
I was actually drooling over both. They're lovely. ::sigh::
I will drool over Jack, but it's not the constant drool that is saved for Daniel. Constant. Seriously, I'm in danger of dehydration. ;)
Also, in that picture of Daniel, Sam, and Cassandra? Whatever costumer decided to put Daniel/Michael in pleated pants needs to be shot. Pronto.
Also--::shakes head:: Daniel's wardrobe is better in later seasons.
*thinks back to Nick's puppy performance Friday night* I think we should go half on that pet deposit. And we can train them together.
Also--::shakes head:: Daniel's wardrobe is better in later seasons.
Agreed. He should have to wear suits all the time. Or nothing at all. I'd be happy with either.
I vote nothing except for the bandana.
Though sometimes he may wear a towel, or a cable knit sweater. Um, sometimes a suit too. Mostly nothing, though. Yessss.... ::goes to happy place::
