Season 5, Episode 9 - Between Two Fires
Original Air Date: August 24, 2001

The fate of Tollana hangs in the balance as the SG-1 team strives to solve a mystery on the Tollan home world. Colonel Jack O'Neill tries to discover the motive behind the Tollans' sudden decision to share weapons technology with SG-1, contrary to their behavior in the past.

well sam has to say goodbye to yet another boyfriend this time its narim doesnt she loose 2 in season 5.

So does that mean that Tolana id dead. What about tech. stuff. Now the goauld will be able to phase shift.

i dont actually think the tollans are dead cause i think a good percentage of them got away and hopefully narim was one of them i think they could write a great episode based on narim coming back.

we should've kept the walk-through-walls thing and copy some of them, you know mass production

yeah cause they would of been a graet advantage when fighting the gould and other enemies.

theyve got alot of useful technology the walk through walls armbands, the cannons.
why they dont want an alliance with us i dont know common we are practically just as good as them better in manors and humour sence but we are equals in everything else.

Im sorry for the tollans and I dont think they will have the strength to revive...and I wanted that in the end of the episod, Sg1 received one of that cool arm device...but I guess that would be in contradiction with their (tollans) politics...too bad

i cant belive that they were going to give us useless weapons cause the cannons are of no use to us and no use to them.

I totally agree about the cannons...but i was talking about those armbands...

oh rite..........well the armbands are really cool and i wouldntn mind some of those i could sneak into the houses of parliament.

I don?t understand why it is that every one feels so sorry for the Tolans. Ok so they?re not the bad guys, but then again their not exactly good Samaritans are they. I mean, they have known about the Gould for centuries and they know what the Gould do to other races. They also have it within their power to stop them. But they don?t. And why? Because their isolationists. And so what! Billions of innocent people have died at the hands of the Gould and the tolans have sat by for centuries and let this happen.
I mean its not like its beyond them to stop the Gould. If you ask me both the Tolan and the Asgard are getting what they deserve for letting so many innocent people die for centuries, simply because they feel too high and mighty to care about the little primitive people.
Ok at least the Asgard made that protected planets treaty but so what. They could have stopped the Gould altogether but no; they will only protect a few planets and let the rest suffer needlessly at Gould hands. And look at them now. Have you seen the final episode of the season? The Gould now evenly matches the Asgard because now the Gould ships (at least Anubis ones) are impervious to Asgard weaponry.
Anyway if you ask me the Tolans got what they deserved for so many centuries of turning a blind eye to the suffering of other cultures. But hey their technology is cool though.

narim was sweet and he was willing to fight i wreckon they should kick that woman out and make narim theyre leader cause hes pretty cool for a tollan and he has his ppls best interests at heart.

wtf is wit the tollans? i mean they r really selfish. ya a lto fo us agree when i read this review stuff. i cant believe they ddint give us ne technology after we saved their asses, how many times?? like 3 n they still all pissy. n now they gonna try n stab us in the back to save their own hides. i think they deserve to b wiped out. its just too bad, i mean they had technology that rivialed the ancients. wat a waste. the sgc shouldve taken some techonolgy or blueprints. o well. sg1 should really stop saving their buts ovr n ovr n ovr again. u think they be more polite n show sum graditude.

anyway if they did give us and ion cannons theyd be no good anyway plus the tollans are worried that if they give earth their technology it will destroy them like it did on a previous planet.

yeah i think the nox could rival the ancients but im not sure about the tollans theyre just to secretive if they did allow us to try and use the weapons when we first meet them and their useful (the cannons im on about) then maybe we could of helped them make new weapons and with their advanced technology and sams knowledge we could make one kick ass weapon.

my sista is just like you when ever i have a headache shes like oh take this or use that and ive just turnt around to her lately going look ill stick to the aspirin.

If nothing else, the Tollana episodes gave Jack an oportunity to bitch and growl. He sooooo hates those guys and it make for very entertaining episodes.

I agree about Narim though - he was cool and the cat is Sooooo cute!

I never really understood the whole "phasing through matter" armband things, wouldnt it make more sense to use technology like that on those huge cannon things they use to protect their planet, or at least as a defensive measure like on ships and what-not. Think about it "I can hit you but you cant hit me" hehe you could even put "GOD MODE" on the button that activates it lol.
