ORPHEUS

A Jaffa-centric episode, and it's not a good day for the ones who like the Tauri.

Teal'c's son Ry'ac, and Bratac, are prisoners at a Jaffa death camp. SG-1, however, will not let their friends meet a lethal end and are determined to rescue them. Along the way, Teal'c becomes a prisoner (whether by mistake or in order to save his son, it's not clear) and his fate looks very precarious (since he's a Sholva).

# thanks to 'ferret' for the tip

Orpheus goes into hell to retrieve a loved one, and pays a terrible price.

Orpheus is a son of the Greek muse Calliope. His wife, Euryphidus (or something like that... it's been awhile) gets bitten by a poisenus snake (I think) and dyes.

Orpheus sings his way into the underworld where his singing makes Hades himself cry and agree to let him take his wife back into the world of the living. However, to do so, he must walk infornt of her and lead her along a dangerous cliff - but until they are out into the light of day he cannot ever look back at her.

Greek tragedy working as it does, Orpheus hears her cry out as they are moving. Thinking that she's tripped he turns around to catch her - but in doing so he has condemned her to stay dead after all and looses any chance he had at every being with her again.

No, the daughter of Demeter is the wife of Hades. (Demeter's a she) Her name is Persephone, she ate half of a fruit of the underworld and is Hades wife for six months of the year (Fall and Winter) and her mothers daughter for the other six (spring and summer).

I just learnt to translate the whole damn poem FROM LATIN for an exam. It sucked! I wonder if they'll sing, I've always had the image of all the blokes being drunk (cept Teal'c obviously he'd be bolt uprite sober) singing I will survive and then doing a ballad to Janet and Sam. Just the strange wandereings of my mind

So ladyLuna- how long have you been learning about "Greek mythology" for then?

It's all real interesting- but I was taught many of the stories when I was like 12 and have since forgotten them- but when I read your account of Orpheus- I remembered! smile.gif

New screenshots have just arrived for this episode, and there is one for the guys - Sam in a combat vest, here's the link:

Sam

It looks like it is going to be a really good episode.

There is another photo at that site where you can see what looks like a sniper rifle in the hands of O'neill. Maybe he will see some covert ops skill from him in this ep. Also.. any one see the bleached blond jaffa. hehe. there is a photo where you can see that one of his eyes has been whited out. Does anyone recognize the tatoo on his head? I wonder what that guys story is.

Yeah, this ep sounds to be a bit lacking. I hope they pull it together by the end of the season. I wonder if this will be the end of the Jaffa rebellion, or if they tie it up with this episode?

Here's the TV Guide description:

Stargate SG-1
Orpheus
60 min.

A glum Teal'c battles to revive his spirits and save his son in a moody episode written and directed by ex-21 Jump Street star Peter DeLuise. Fans of the taciturn Jaffa warrior#-SG-1's equivalent to Star Trek's Mr. Spock#-may be surprised to see him so angst-ridden from a laser wound. The reasons are twofold:

His son Rya'c (Neil Denis) is missing, and Teal'c is shamed by his own feelings of weakness. As Teal'c works to heal both his body and mojo, teammate Daniel Jackson, a former godlike entity, inspires a rescue plan after recalling images from his omnipotent past. The clues lead to a Goa'uld labor camp where Rya'c and the Jaffa elder Bra'tac (Tony Amendola) are being held.

Cast: Richard Dean Anderson, Michael Shanks, Amanda Tapping, Christopher Judge, Don S. Davis, Neil Denis, Tony Amendola, Obi Ndefo, Teryl Rothery

I completely forgot this thread until just now tongue.gif

the thing is, if they plan on mirroring the "orpheus" legend, someone's gonna die.

Well they could be using the name Orpheus in the same way they used Ra and the Egyption gods and Hathor, where it's not a particular legend they're talking about, just using that name as a goua'ld.

For all we know, Orpheus could be the Gouald who runs the labor camp.
