I can't believe that Hammond kept the floppy in an unlocked drawer! I know the chance of it getting found is low, but come on!

He probably kept it there because a safe would be the most obvious place to look for something as important as that floppy. cool.gif

If someone was desperate enough for the disk I am sure that they would look in the drawers aswell as a safe. Hammond doesn't even have a safe though? I know they have one for the Goa'uld hand device but its more deadly to keep locked up than a floppy!!

Who else would know about besides Hammond, O'Neil, Mayborne, or Kinsey?

Sky never do a double bill of Stargate if there is a two parter. Its always been one episode fromt he new season per week (with it repeated on a Saturday).

I thought they did. maybe it was with Star Trek Voyager like"The Dark Frontier".

even though it was only a flash back ep with no gate or sg1 i think it was pretty gd, i always luv hearing about all the things theyve done over the 7 seasons.also liked that woosley became kinda gd in the end. only odd thing i hav 2 say, is that the president seemed a little too laid back and a bit weird-taking the shoes off etc, but quite amusing.

i thought it was good especially for a clip and politics episode

i like the new president, he looked like he's a bit like o'neill.
im really glad wooolsey is turning good because i was looking forward to seeing robert picardo since i love the way he plays the doctor in voyager but i was dissappointed when he turned out a bit evil on stargate

they built up slighty to the final episodes aswell by mentionin the ancients knowledge in o'neill, maybe a hint?

umm no not really....he was sooo way older and all wrinkly.
but everything else u sed i agree with, the whole thing about jack and the ancient knowledge seems slightly emphasied, so i guess they might be hinting at something...

Aside from the people who read spoilers (anyone left?) did anyone else get the impression in 'heroes' that Kinsey was running for president? Was there ever a clue that he might just be a vice president? When I saw the opening scene, I was so happy that Kinsey didn't make it.


Not a clue! I seriously thought that he'd be the one being 'inaugurated', so thank goodness he wasn't. In the first few seconds of this episode I was like "Who the heck is this guy".

I'm so glad I've stopped reading spoilers as this episode, while not the most impacting, was a nice bit of lite entertainment.

If we se season 7 in club music terms, what we are in now is the breakdown where everyone sways their hands from side to side (anticipating what will come next) , the last two will eps hopefully be a good drop!

Well this episode was kinda disappointing, I dislike episodes featuring 9-5 people talking about SG-1 past missions, I guess I like new gate travelling episodes like the next guy, so this episode gets a 6 out of 10, but no point complaining about this episode, "The Lost city" (Part 1) is on next week! which is brilliant w00t.gif

On the disk being in the drawer I would think that Hammon knew that he may need a copy of the disk handy and he did say it was not the only copy. (Maybe the general told him)

Am I the only one who thought that Kinsy was going for Presdent not VP?

The whole epsoide I was waiting for the presdent to say I want to see this for my self. Meet the people before I make up my mind.

It doesn't matter if the drawer was unlocked...its a heavily guarded base with airmen everywhere.

He also stated "this is not the only copy".

I thought this was the best clip episode ever. It had a nice plot too, and it's cool to see the political aspect of the SGC for once, instead of the military side. I can't wait to see what develops from the next couple of episodes with the new Preisdent, Kinsey, and the Wolsey (sp) guy.

Posible spoiler!!:

If Anubis knows that the lost city is on earth, then he might bring (almost) his whole fleet.

Now I can understand that this ep would set the casual viewer up for the season's final show, as a hardcore Stargate fan though, I thought it was boring.

Don't get me wrong... the president was ok, the military guy was very loyal, and Kinsey was, well, Kinsey! But the story was as boring as hell and badly planned. Expansion on the bad planning: why would they give the example of SC being compromised as the scene in Entity where Jack had to shoot her, but then force the argument about the inappropriate relationship of SC/JO'N. A bit stupid if you ask me!

The only thing that kept me watching was the fantastic job done by Robert Picardo. Watching the doubt grow in his mind and that he had the integrity to follow it through. Well written and well acted.

Also in that scene i thought "Oh no" because (i have no idea why) i thought that the president would turn out to be fake, using one of those holographic projects from "foothold" and would kill Woolsey. However i now think that would have been a tad over the top.


Holy sh*t. I was thinking the exact same thing. ohmy.gif I think it was because the room was dark, which meant 'late' to me, and you figure the vice-president might've had access to that sort of tech...

Actually, I was thinking that more when Woolsey went to the Pentagon to meet the Chief Of Staff. He looked so vulnerable just sitting there alone. It could've just as well been an NID guy with 'foothold' tech who just walks in, shoots him, and walks out. The level of paranoia and uncertainty running through this ep was almost palpable.

The ep actually played like a great little political thriller. Yes, I'm serious. All the pieces were trying to angle for a spot. It was so cool that Kinsey spoke very little,letting Woolsey do most of the talking, yet he is such a threat not only to the President, but to Woolsey and the future of the Stargate program. In his own way, this guy is just as dangerous to earth as Anubis. I have a feeling that Woolsey is going to pay the ultimate price for changing sides. God knows they laid out the potential for that scenario.

About the clips. They were mercifully few, and edited much tighter to only show what was needed and then cut back to the present. I thought the selection of clips was good. I also liked how Woolsey hinted at a 'relationship' between O'Neill and Carter. C'mon folks. If you were an outsider looking in and saw these mission reports, wouldn't you think a hint of something might be going on too?

Yep, I really enjoyed this ep...coincidently, it was the second ep I've seen after swearing off spoilers. The first one being Resurrection. This one had a better story.

I can't believe the UK is getting Lost City first....I think I speak for many of us in the US when I say...

aaarrrggghh!!!

Yes I thought so too. I never ever thought I'd find myself ever liking a clip show but there you go. Shows that there is a way of doing one without it being crap. Now if everyone else could only take note...

I dunno. I'm inclined to think that if there was much mention of anything untoward in official reports then they'd have been swooped on by the NID a long time ago. Does make you wonder what went into the official report about the xatarc incident though.
