Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Can you hear this?
- 0:05Speaker 2: Kick and chase by Mullins!
- 0:07Speaker 1: Kick and chase again by Mullins! This'll be a miracle!
- 0:11Speaker 3: Oh, it is a miracle!
- 0:13Speaker 1: Has Jacob even seen it? You've got to see it.
- 0:16Speaker 3: It's a f * * * ing miracle.
- 0:17Speaker 2: Well, here's the best thing. He's been to a Broncos game,
- 0:20Speaker 2: but only live, so he's never heard Australian commentary for
- 0:22Speaker 2: a football game.
- 0:23Speaker 3: Even if you had heard Australian commentary, you wouldn't have
- 0:26Speaker 3: heard it like that. That guy's retired now. I thought
- 0:28Speaker 3: you were going to say retired.
- 0:30Speaker 2: Well, I mean, there is an element of that because
- 0:34Speaker 2: if you took that verbiage and put it into like
- 0:37Speaker 2: a Trump accent, it'd be like, you've never seen anything
- 0:40Speaker 2: like it. That's maybe the greatest.
- 0:42Speaker 1: Maybe the greatest.
- 0:43Speaker 2: You'll never see it again. Mullins, what a great guy.
- 0:45Speaker 2: What a great fullback.
- 0:47Speaker 4: Unbelievable.
- 0:48Speaker 2: I checked out his ass. It's tight.
- 0:52Speaker 3: Get into Gates. Yes, mate.
- 0:55Speaker 5: No, I was just going to say it would be
- 0:58Speaker 5: like thinking about I don't know why I was thinking
- 1:01Speaker 5: about this, and it's kind of mean. I was thinking
- 1:03Speaker 5: about the Citizen Joe clip where Joe's wife is just like,
- 1:06Speaker 5: you know, the team interaction just isn't what it used
- 1:08Speaker 5: to be.
- 1:12Speaker 3: Get into gate. This delay is going to be good.
- 1:32Speaker 3: Get into Gate episode 338 minutes, if you don't mind.
- 1:37Speaker 3: We're talking some SGU.
- 1:40Speaker 1: See yourself out.
- 1:41Speaker 3: It's early, too. I'm very sorry. It's a Stargate reference.
- 1:45Speaker 3: It's so foreign to you. Is it a that's one
- 1:48Speaker 3: for me?
- 1:50Speaker 2: Wait, did all those Rabs clips make the opening, or.
- 1:54Speaker 3: Absolutely. And just in case, if you're tuning in late
- 1:59Speaker 3: to a podcast, we'll play them again at the end.
- 2:01Speaker 5: Oh, here we go.
- 2:02Speaker 1: Here we go.
- 2:04Speaker 2: I did it to myself.
- 2:04Speaker 1: Kick and chase by Mullins.
- 2:07Speaker 2: Kick and chase again by Mullins. This will be a miracle.
- 2:09Speaker 4: Oh, it is a miracle.
- 2:11Speaker 5: Oh, my goodness.
- 2:12Speaker 4: You won't see anything like that again this year.
- 2:17Speaker 2: You won't see anything like that again. Maybe never.
- 2:21Speaker 3: That's Matty. Hi, Matty.
- 2:23Speaker 2: Hi.
- 2:23Speaker 3: And Brendan.
- 2:24Speaker 4: G'day, mate.
- 2:25Speaker 3: Pots and pans. More mullins, please. We're not just a
- 2:28Speaker 3: little threesome as we are each and every other time
- 2:31Speaker 3: we come and visit Matty's sex dungeon. We've called in
- 2:35Speaker 3: a little bit of extra help.
- 2:36Speaker 1: That midget in the corner.
- 2:37Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah.
- 2:38Speaker 3: Hello, friend. We've ordered online from overseas our LA correspondent.
- 2:45Speaker 1: Tap, tap, tap.
- 2:46Speaker 2: Are you live?
- 2:47Speaker 3: Are you with us, Jacob?
- 2:48Speaker 5: Coming live from Tinseltown is Jacob. Hello, thank you for
- 2:52Speaker 5: having me, guys.
- 2:53Speaker 3: Yeah, it makes sense that we've got you on, because
- 2:55Speaker 3: for the longest time now... Actually, can you clear something up?
- 2:57Speaker 3: Was SGU your first Stargate, or is SGU your favorite Stargate?
- 3:02Speaker 5: It is neither, and I would rather you stop saying
- 3:05Speaker 5: it's my favorite. I don't know where you made that up.
- 3:07Speaker 1: Yeah, okay.
- 3:08Speaker 3: Made that up?
- 3:09Speaker 1: That's Matty there.
- 3:09Speaker 2: Made that up.
- 3:10Speaker 1: Classic, he makes up facts all the time.
- 3:12Speaker 2: Made that invited... Invited....
- 3:16Speaker 5: Listen, I probably said that at some point, but.
- 3:19Speaker 4: That was a recency bias.
- 3:22Speaker 5: Yeah, and I don't even remember what I had for
- 3:24Speaker 5: breakfast this morning. So I don't remember what I said
- 3:28Speaker 5: about this podcast or about the show. You know, here's
- 3:32Speaker 5: the thing. There are elements of this show that grab
- 3:38Speaker 5: me and make me much more engaged than the other
- 3:43Speaker 5: two because it feels like much more of a modern show.
- 3:46Speaker 5: I think when I first watched it after everyone saying, oh,
- 3:48Speaker 5: this show is terrible. It's like the worst. And then
- 3:52Speaker 5: I watch it and I'm like, you know, engaged from
- 3:54Speaker 5: episode one. I'm like, wow, this is sick. I think
- 3:57Speaker 5: that made me like so much more excited about it.
- 4:00Speaker 5: So that might be why I might've said that, but
- 4:04Speaker 5: having sat with it for a while and then we
- 4:08Speaker 5: might get to this later, but you know, some of
- 4:10Speaker 5: these episodes are, fairly dull on a rewatch just cause
- 4:15Speaker 5: they are so very slow and you know, it's a
- 4:17Speaker 5: slow build. There's just nothing like the magic of SG
- 4:22Speaker 5: one like that will always be my favorite. It's just
- 4:25Speaker 5: that this one grabbed me in such an unexpected way.
- 4:28Speaker 5: I couldn't help, but you know, be attached to that.
- 4:30Speaker 2: However, however, when getting L into Stargate, you did choose
- 4:35Speaker 2: to lead with universe.
- 4:37Speaker 3: I think that's my confusion.
- 4:38Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 4:39Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 4:40Speaker 5: Right, yeah, I did show it to her first, just
- 4:42Speaker 5: because it's only two seasons, it's a modern show, and
- 4:45Speaker 5: then I was like, well, if you enjoy this a
- 4:47Speaker 5: little bit, have I got a show for you.
- 4:49Speaker 4: Yeah, I think they should agree with you in terms
- 4:52Speaker 4: of the style of this show compared to SG-1, and
- 4:55Speaker 4: I was just watching season 9 of SG-1 with my
- 4:58Speaker 4: son Jack, and we just... It's strange because they've got
- 5:02Speaker 4: the high-def cameras, but they're still shooting in that 90s style.
- 5:06Speaker 4: I feel like at that point, they should have gone
- 5:08Speaker 4: to this new style, like transitioned SG-1 from that Stargate
- 5:12Speaker 4: Command new style and also changed Atlantis at the same
- 5:16Speaker 4: time to what Universe is.
- 5:19Speaker 1: I think that would have made it better.
- 5:21Speaker 5: Universe is pretty dated at some point. It's like they
- 5:25Speaker 5: really did... If you watch a movie from 2005... they
- 5:29Speaker 5: were hardcore on the tight shots that are just whip
- 5:33Speaker 5: pans and handheld. Matty, you're going to love this. Watching
- 5:37Speaker 5: Batman Begins versus The Dark Knight. Batman Begins is like, oh,
- 5:41Speaker 5: calm down with the camera work.
- 5:43Speaker 3: That doesn't... I only watched that recently. Now you've got
- 5:48Speaker 3: me casting my mind back to.
- 5:50Speaker 4: Mitch is doing another Nolan trilogy.
- 5:51Speaker 1: Tonight.
- 5:55Speaker 3: Haven't actually got to the second one yet. We hit
- 5:57Speaker 3: a pause. But, yeah, it was, I guess, around that
- 5:59Speaker 3: time where they started just, I guess, you know, your
- 6:02Speaker 3: born supremacy that sort of changed how action scenes were
- 6:06Speaker 3: shot from that point on. That was, what, 2004.
- 6:10Speaker 2: Well, and this is so heavily influenced by the Battlestar
- 6:14Speaker 2: Galactica reboot. And then even more recently with the new
- 6:17Speaker 2: Scrubs reboot that came out there and they're season two
- 6:20Speaker 2: at the moment. And I saw a little clip of
- 6:23Speaker 2: Zach Braff, who's kind of the, he's the sort of
- 6:24Speaker 2: main showrunner for it. And he was saying, because now
- 6:29Speaker 2: they're not shooting on 16mm film anymore like they did
- 6:31Speaker 2: with the original show. And during season one, a lot
- 6:34Speaker 2: of the fan was sort of like, oh, it doesn't
- 6:36Speaker 2: look right. Like you're back in the same hospital. It's
- 6:39Speaker 2: the same characters 20 years later, but it just looks
- 6:41Speaker 2: too clean and too, it just looks too digital. And
- 6:44Speaker 2: apparently in season two, they've been slowly just sort of
- 6:47Speaker 2: shifting a little bit. And he's been working with like,
- 6:49Speaker 2: the editors and the colour correctors and all that kind
- 6:51Speaker 2: of stuff, and just trying to give it that more old-school, like, 16mm.
- 6:55Speaker 1: Vibe look for the.
- 6:56Speaker 2: Hospital, which I thought was really interesting.
- 6:59Speaker 3: Do they shoot in the same sort of style? Like,
- 7:01Speaker 3: if it wasn't the look... Yes, it's still very... It
- 7:04Speaker 3: feels like the original show.
- 7:06Speaker 4: And that's the problem with SG-1, season 9 and 10. Yeah.
- 7:11Speaker 1: They did the same thing. It just looks weird.
- 7:13Speaker 5: And the digital cameras were crap back then.
- 7:15Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 7:16Speaker 5: I think now it doesn't matter, but back then. Yeah.
- 7:19Speaker 1: I didn't change their lighting or anything.
- 7:21Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 7:21Speaker 2: I think I remember, um, an audio commentary from like
- 7:24Speaker 2: season seven or season eight. And that, cause that was
- 7:26Speaker 2: when they started originally filming with the digital cameras. And, yeah,
- 7:30Speaker 2: they said it was a big learning curve because there's
- 7:32Speaker 2: some shots that, you know, we've talked about it before, Mitch,
- 7:35Speaker 2: what's that thing, the standard setting on the TVs, the
- 7:37Speaker 2: motion control or whatever it is?
- 7:39Speaker 3: Yeah, the blur.
- 7:40Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 7:41Speaker 2: That was on, like, some of the panning shots they
- 7:43Speaker 2: had and stuff like that in, like, season seven or
- 7:45Speaker 2: something like that. I think it might have been Will
- 7:46Speaker 2: Waring or Andy McKee talking about how it was a
- 7:49Speaker 2: real big learning curve for them in one season to
- 7:52Speaker 2: shift the way. And, yeah, I just, like Brendan said,
- 7:54Speaker 2: I don't think they shifted enough.
- 7:58Speaker 3: I see Tom Cruise there. He kept putting out those
- 8:00Speaker 3: things going, hey, turn on your TV. Turn off motion blur.
- 8:04Speaker 3: It's what us is filming. Okay, I will, Tom Cruise.
- 8:07Speaker 5: Sure. People give me a lot of shit for starting
- 8:11Speaker 5: Elle with SGU, but I will maintain that that's not
- 8:15Speaker 5: the worst decision ever made regarding Stargate viewing order. I
- 8:18Speaker 5: remember a post on the Stargate Facebook group years and
- 8:21Speaker 5: years ago where someone's like, my mom got me into
- 8:23Speaker 5: Stargate by starting me on this movie called Arc of Truth.
- 8:27Speaker 4: Oh my God.
- 8:28Speaker 1: Jesus.
- 8:30Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 8:30Speaker 5: Think about that for a second.
- 8:31Speaker 1: I mean, it could have been worse.
- 8:32Speaker 2: You could have started her on like Stargate infinity. Imagine that.
- 8:39Speaker 5: Imagine if you watch that and you actually like it
- 8:41Speaker 5: and they're like, Oh, I want to watch more of that.
- 8:43Speaker 5: Where's more. There's like this more franchise, like. yeah and
- 8:45Speaker 5: then none of it is anything like it's all it's
- 8:48Speaker 5: all live action.
- 8:48Speaker 3: When are these cool gonna get out of here and
- 8:50Speaker 3: bring on the all right yeah but buddy you've got
- 8:53Speaker 3: a long wait and then you're gonna be disappointed because
- 8:55Speaker 3: they're nowhere near as cool as these guys.
- 8:57Speaker 2: Uh speaking of the motion blur though um when i
- 9:00Speaker 2: was doing the um making it so podcast with craig
- 9:03Speaker 2: we were doing all the picard and star trek stuff
- 9:06Speaker 2: we go i'd go into his place we literally watched
- 9:08Speaker 2: the episode and then sit at his dining room table
- 9:11Speaker 2: and record the episode. He doesn't have the motion blur
- 9:14Speaker 2: turned off. So like you'd be watching a brand new
- 9:17Speaker 2: episode of Star Trek and it looks like it's being
- 9:19Speaker 2: filmed by like Days of Our Lives.
- 9:20Speaker 3: Yeah, right.
- 9:21Speaker 2: It has that really weird, like there's no depth in
- 9:24Speaker 2: the field. And Craig's like, what are you talking about?
- 9:26Speaker 2: I don't see any difference. And I'm like, get off Facebook, Craig,
- 9:30Speaker 2: and have a look at the screen.
- 9:32Speaker 3: This is coming from a guy who prefers DVD to
- 9:34Speaker 3: Blu-ray for clarity. Yeah, that's it. I'm a Blu-ray.
- 9:36Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I'm a DVD guy.
- 9:38Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
- 9:39Speaker 2: Yeah, I just bought a Blu-ray player and I'm still
- 9:43Speaker 2: not going to buy any Blu-rays.
- 9:44Speaker 3: I'll allow it.
- 9:45Speaker 2: I'm just going to use it to watch my old DVDs.
- 9:46Speaker 3: No, that's okay. Yeah, because I'm a continuity sort of guy,
- 9:49Speaker 3: you know.
- 9:50Speaker 5: Are you saying in current year you bought a Blu-ray
- 9:54Speaker 5: player and not a 4K Blu-ray player?
- 9:56Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 9:56Speaker 2: You know which one it is because you said we
- 9:58Speaker 2: bought the same one when I sent you the picture
- 9:59Speaker 2: of it.
- 10:00Speaker 5: It. We did. No, you figured it out and you
- 10:01Speaker 5: said we didn't.
- 10:02Speaker 1: Oh, okay.
- 10:03Speaker 5: Right?
- 10:03Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 10:04Speaker 3: 4K is wasted on me.
- 10:05Speaker 5: It's not my fault.
- 10:06Speaker 2: You don't know what to buy.
- 10:07Speaker 5: It's not my fault.
- 10:08Speaker 2: They don't make Star Trek in 4K. So what's the
- 10:10Speaker 2: point in me watching my 30-year-old Star Trek DVDs?
- 10:15Speaker 5: Is that the only thing you watch?
- 10:16Speaker 4: Pretty much.
- 10:19Speaker 2: I'm not buying project hail Mary and Oppenheimer on, on
- 10:24Speaker 2: 4k to watch it here.
- 10:25Speaker 5: Well, that's your loss.
- 10:28Speaker 2: I went, I went for the hurt there. Cause I
- 10:29Speaker 2: know they're two of your favorites. So I'm just like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 10:33Speaker 5: Where'd you pull that? Oppenheimer is one of my favorites. Oh,
- 10:36Speaker 5: I think it's what, well, it's one of the best
- 10:39Speaker 5: movies that it's not my favorite.
- 10:41Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 10:42Speaker 5: Same as like Shawshank redemption is like the best movie
- 10:44Speaker 5: ever seen, but it's not my favorite movie. You know
- 10:46Speaker 5: what I mean?
- 10:46Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I just remember you saying how, like, compelling and, like,
- 10:50Speaker 2: because you're a movie nerd, like, you love how well
- 10:51Speaker 2: it's shot and all that kind of stuff. Oh, yeah.
- 10:54Speaker 5: Leaving the theatre after seeing that, I was just, like,
- 10:56Speaker 5: unbelievably disturbed. Like, I haven't been physically, like, affected by
- 11:01Speaker 5: a movie like that.
- 11:02Speaker 2: I mean, every time I leave a Nolan film, I
- 11:04Speaker 2: leave the cinema feeling disturbed and uncomfortable, so... But I
- 11:08Speaker 2: still haven't seen Oppenheimer, so... Let's get into it.
- 11:10Speaker 3: A little bit of visitation. Episode 9 of Season 2
- 11:13Speaker 3: of SGU. With no recollection of how they got to
- 11:17Speaker 3: the Destiny, crew members left behind over a year earlier
- 11:21Speaker 3: make a mysterious return. After an unsettling turn, the memories
- 11:24Speaker 3: stirred through regression therapy prove disastrous for those who've returned. Now, just.
- 11:31Speaker 2: Over a year?
- 11:32Speaker 3: I know.
- 11:33Speaker 1: That's what I thought.
- 11:33Speaker 3: I'm like, that seems different than what they said in the.
- 11:36Speaker 2: In next week's episode, they say, like, it's been 10
- 11:39Speaker 2: months since we left the Milky Way.
- 11:41Speaker 1: Yeah, right.
- 11:44Speaker 3: Okay, I'll just go straight to directed by Will Waring. Actually,
- 11:47Speaker 3: before that, can I just say that thank God for
- 11:49Speaker 3: the synopsis Brendan just gave me, which is from Prime Video.
- 11:52Speaker 3: And we don't say that often at the moment.
- 11:54Speaker 1: Great people.
- 11:55Speaker 5: Obviously.
- 11:55Speaker 3: Because when I typed in Stargate Universe Visitation into Google,
- 11:59Speaker 3: the first one that pops up is IMDB.
- 12:01Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 12:02Speaker 3: And it gives you a little hit of the synopsis
- 12:04Speaker 3: before you have to click through. It says, aboard Destiny,
- 12:07Speaker 3: Rush has strapped himself into the chair and entered a
- 12:10Speaker 3: virtual reality world where he can spend time alone with
- 12:12Speaker 3: Amanda Perry.
- 12:13Speaker 1: That's a different episode.
- 12:14Speaker 3: Spoiler alert. And I went, whoa, whoa, what have I done?
- 12:18Speaker 3: And I've clicked in. And when you click in, it
- 12:21Speaker 3: reads the right thing. So it's only the Google page preview.
- 12:24Speaker 3: And I'm like, oh, what is this? What does that mean?
- 12:28Speaker 3: What have I read?
- 12:29Speaker 1: That was last season.
- 12:32Speaker 3: It wasn't even Matty that spoiled this one.
- 12:34Speaker 2: Fuck you. You just read the plot for Martin Guiro's
- 12:39Speaker 2: cancelled Stargate reboot.
- 12:40Speaker 5: Oh, damn it.
- 12:40Speaker 3: Sorry, Shang-C. Stole the glory. Anyway, directed by Will Waring
- 12:45Speaker 3: and written by Remy... Auberginois. Auberginois. How very dare you.
- 12:53Speaker 2: That's one for the both of you.
- 12:55Speaker 4: Oh, no.
- 12:56Speaker 1: First time writer, too.
- 12:57Speaker 5: Is he?
- 12:58Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 12:58Speaker 4: Not bad. You know, I enjoyed the writing in this episode,
- 13:01Speaker 4: which I don't say very often. The dialogue was kind
- 13:04Speaker 4: of snappy. I didn't hate Vulgar and Brody like I
- 13:07Speaker 4: normally do.
- 13:08Speaker 1: Yeah, they're funny now. Their interaction were pretty good.
- 13:11Speaker 3: Yeah, I was starting to like them, too.
- 13:13Speaker 2: Yeah, they're starting to give the other guys kind of vibe.
- 13:17Speaker 2: I think they tried that too hard early on.
- 13:20Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right. Yeah.
- 13:22Speaker 3: And it's funny.
- 13:23Speaker 5: This is unrelated to.
- 13:24Speaker 1: No, you go.
- 13:25Speaker 5: Sorry, this is unrelated to this specific episode, but did
- 13:27Speaker 5: they get the water situation sorted after the episode where
- 13:31Speaker 5: they tried to get it and then it was all poison?
- 13:34Speaker 2: Yeah, didn't they have to... Was it some of the
- 13:39Speaker 2: poison from the chest burster things that was able to
- 13:45Speaker 2: get rid of all the hallucinogenic bugs in the water?
- 13:48Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
- 13:49Speaker 2: It was something that encountered somewhere else that were able
- 13:52Speaker 2: to purify the water.
- 13:53Speaker 5: Right, but did they get any more than just that, like,
- 13:56Speaker 5: few pounds of ice?
- 13:58Speaker 4: No, we're good for water forever now.
- 14:00Speaker 2: Yeah, they did one episode on it. Well, I mean,
- 14:03Speaker 2: they've done multiple episodes on it now because it was
- 14:05Speaker 2: obviously the sandbags that were eating the water in season one,
- 14:09Speaker 2: like early season one. So, like, we've done enough. There's
- 14:11Speaker 2: just water now, guys.
- 14:12Speaker 1: There's just water.
- 14:13Speaker 5: Okay, there's just water.
- 14:14Speaker 4: They got hydroponics, so they're actually using more water, right?
- 14:17Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 14:18Speaker 1: To grow shit?
- 14:18Speaker 5: Right.
- 14:19Speaker 2: Well.
- 14:19Speaker 1: Oh, they got heaps from Eden on the. Which we
- 14:22Speaker 1: never saw, by the way. Yeah.
- 14:23Speaker 4: Do you know what I fucking hated the most about
- 14:26Speaker 4: this episode? Was that those people who came to Destiny
- 14:30Speaker 4: from the shuttle, they had, like Greer said, they had
- 14:33Speaker 4: zero survival instincts. Because I'm looking at that shuttle, right?
- 14:38Speaker 4: They're freezing in there. We can't shut the door because
- 14:40Speaker 4: it's vacuum sealed and we'll suffocate. Well, just keep opening
- 14:44Speaker 4: the door. Or better yet, build a shelter around the
- 14:46Speaker 4: shuttle and build a fireplace. I didn't see any wood
- 14:49Speaker 4: in that shuttle.
- 14:50Speaker 2: You'd also leave it open to crack?
- 14:52Speaker 1: Yeah, like a smidge.
- 14:53Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 14:54Speaker 1: Like, come on.
- 14:55Speaker 3: Little doorstop guys, you know, just something. That was too much. Because, like,
- 15:00Speaker 3: what do we get the idea? How many months were
- 15:03Speaker 3: they there for? Brr. I mean, who knows, right? I
- 15:07Speaker 3: don't know. Like, it could have been two months before
- 15:10Speaker 3: they died and they've actually been dead for six before
- 15:13Speaker 3: they appeared here.
- 15:13Speaker 1: The aliens came back from holidays.
- 15:15Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 15:15Speaker 2: What the fuck have you done with the place? There
- 15:18Speaker 2: might have been a time frame in that, like, flashback where, like,
- 15:22Speaker 2: they're farming and they're like, oh, no, it's too late
- 15:24Speaker 2: in the winter now or something or other. But I
- 15:27Speaker 2: checked out.
- 15:28Speaker 3: By that point. It just started to shit me because
- 15:30Speaker 3: I'm like, how passionate the main people, anyway, Godboy was like, hey, guys,
- 15:35Speaker 3: I think we're meant to be here and God will provide.
- 15:40Speaker 3: And then like two weeks later, they're like, are we dying?
- 15:43Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, we are. It's just going to be
- 15:46Speaker 3: really slow though.
- 15:47Speaker 1: Oh, sweet.
- 15:48Speaker 3: We had trees falling on women in the middle of
- 15:50Speaker 3: the forest. That makes noise.
- 15:52Speaker 2: And there's the survival instincts that Brandon was talking about.
- 15:56Speaker 2: Walk two feet to the left and you won't get
- 15:58Speaker 2: hit by a tree. It's pretty easy.
- 16:01Speaker 3: She had the Prometheus thing. It was like, just keep running. Right,
- 16:04Speaker 3: with that very skinny, skinny sort of.
- 16:06Speaker 2: Outrun the length of the tree rather than the width
- 16:08Speaker 2: of the tree.
- 16:09Speaker 3: Do not run sideways.
- 16:10Speaker 1: No, never.
- 16:11Speaker 5: Well, it's that guy's fault. It's Peter's fault because he's
- 16:16Speaker 5: called it falling a tree in the hypnosis interview. Oh, really? Like, dude, okay,
- 16:24Speaker 5: that's 101 right there.
- 16:27Speaker 2: The thing that I hated was Godboy kept talking about, oh,
- 16:30Speaker 2: you know, where we're going to be in a better place.
- 16:34Speaker 2: And I'm like, that's such a fucked up mentality. Like,
- 16:38Speaker 2: you're here. This is pretty good. Like, what we're doing
- 16:40Speaker 2: right now, pretty good. Like, it's nice. Like, to constantly
- 16:44Speaker 2: be thinking, oh, if only I was dead because, like,
- 16:47Speaker 2: there's something better. That's so fucked up.
- 16:50Speaker 3: As he said, Matty, that's what faith is. But I
- 16:54Speaker 3: thought his conviction was well written in this one.
- 16:57Speaker 4: Hold on one sec.
- 16:57Speaker 5: Hang on.
- 16:58Speaker 3: Oi, what do you want?
- 16:59Speaker 5: We're recording. Shit.
- 17:00Speaker 4: Sorry.
- 17:01Speaker 3: That's right. Now you're on the pod. Say hi.
- 17:04Speaker 1: Peace and love.
- 17:07Speaker 5: Very good.
- 17:08Speaker 3: A little cameo from Link there.
- 17:10Speaker 1: What do you want?
- 17:12Speaker 2: When you said you'd yell at someone, I thought it
- 17:14Speaker 2: must have been one of your kids.
- 17:14Speaker 3: Ghostbusters, what do you want? Sorry. Sorry, Jacob.
- 17:18Speaker 5: You're good. So, I mean, I don't know. I thought
- 17:22Speaker 5: Kane Godboy's conviction was well written in this episode, especially
- 17:27Speaker 5: when he had that conversation with Rush and then Rush
- 17:30Speaker 5: quoted you know, the mentioned the Bible stories to him.
- 17:34Speaker 5: I just thought that whole interaction was super well-written because
- 17:36Speaker 5: I believed his, I didn't believe him obviously. Cause you know,
- 17:39Speaker 5: we're not God boys, but yeah.
- 17:41Speaker 2: Um, Oh, I believed him. I like, I believe he's
- 17:43Speaker 2: mentally ill.
- 17:44Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 17:44Speaker 2: I totally believe he's mentally ill.
- 17:46Speaker 5: Yeah, no. And then the, I believe that he would
- 17:49Speaker 5: take it that way. And of course they had to,
- 17:51Speaker 5: it had to be that while he was gone, they
- 17:54Speaker 5: found you know, evidence of God or whatever, but I mean,
- 17:57Speaker 5: not capital G God, but you.
- 17:59Speaker 2: Know, lowercase G God. In, in the Stargate franchise, what
- 18:02Speaker 2: we saw in this episode was bright white lights, the
- 18:07Speaker 2: ability to create planets, bringing people back from the dead.
- 18:13Speaker 2: That's all stuff we've seen ascended ancients do. Like there's nothing.
- 18:16Speaker 3: There that is.
- 18:17Speaker 5: Create planets.
- 18:19Speaker 2: Yeah. Remember when, um, um, Anubis destroyed, um, And then
- 18:26Speaker 2: we couldn't get a connection for weeks or whatever it was.
- 18:30Speaker 2: And then finally we go back to Abydos and Scar
- 18:33Speaker 2: is there and he's like, O'Neill, the gate will stay
- 18:35Speaker 2: until you leave. Why did I go Indian? I don't
- 18:37Speaker 2: know why I didn't. I went full Pakistani there for
- 18:39Speaker 2: some reason. I apologize.
- 18:40Speaker 3: All the same to you, are they, mate?
- 18:43Speaker 1: I don't think they built the planet, though. I think
- 18:46Speaker 1: they just.
- 18:46Speaker 2: But they rebuilt it.
- 18:47Speaker 3: It was a bit of VR.
- 18:48Speaker 2: The entire planet.
- 18:50Speaker 5: Because it was too new in the database.
- 18:52Speaker 1: I thought they ascended SG-1. That's what I thought.
- 18:55Speaker 2: But they did. I'm not joking.
- 18:56Speaker 3: Oh, you mean that episode. They just walked into a
- 18:57Speaker 3: void almost and it was like they were just, you know,
- 19:00Speaker 3: had the.
- 19:01Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 19:01Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 19:02Speaker 3: Oh yeah, with a sphere on it.
- 19:03Speaker 1: Like just a square box.
- 19:04Speaker 2: Yeah. But to us it looked like.
- 19:06Speaker 5: It wasn't even real, was it? It was like a
- 19:08Speaker 5: force projection. And then, like, as soon as they left,
- 19:11Speaker 5: it was gone. The pyramid, right?
- 19:13Speaker 3: Yeah, stuff was just all around them.
- 19:14Speaker 1: They couldn't dial back again.
- 19:15Speaker 5: But regardless, that's an insane level of power that they
- 19:18Speaker 5: probably would have called God too, you know?
- 19:20Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's just weird that in this show, like,
- 19:25Speaker 2: Cain is still just like God, but it's like there's-
- 19:27Speaker 2: There's nothing that's been presented so far that we haven't
- 19:30Speaker 2: been able to chalk up to an advanced alien species.
- 19:34Speaker 1: But it's the fact that it.
- 19:35Speaker 5: Was there at the moment of the big, it's the
- 19:37Speaker 5: fact that it was there at the moment of the
- 19:39Speaker 5: big bang. That's what, that's what he, that's what they're,
- 19:42Speaker 5: that's what.
- 19:43Speaker 4: Rush was presenting to everybody. Yeah.
- 19:45Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 19:46Speaker 2: No, I'm saying, I'm saying that's got nothing to do
- 19:48Speaker 2: with these beings that brought all these idiots back to life.
- 19:52Speaker 5: No.
- 19:52Speaker 2: In terms of these idiots on the, on the shuttle.
- 19:55Speaker 5: But the fact that. You go. Yeah. But the fact
- 19:58Speaker 5: that they're like, they're, they're saying, oh, and now that
- 20:01Speaker 5: there's this evidence of intelligence at the moment of the
- 20:04Speaker 5: big bang. Like, of course they're going to jump to
- 20:07Speaker 5: calling it capital G God.
- 20:08Speaker 2: Oh, of course. But that's also.
- 20:09Speaker 5: Even if it is just ascended beings.
- 20:12Speaker 2: Yeah. But that's also existed before the ancients.
- 20:15Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
- 20:16Speaker 2: That's the ancients are the ones that are searching that out.
- 20:20Speaker 2: And the ancients, the ancients ascended ancients in the Milky
- 20:23Speaker 2: Way galaxy. Cause as Brandon said, as ascension is geologically
- 20:27Speaker 2: based now.
- 20:27Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 20:29Speaker 2: Thanks to, thanks to children of the gods, not children
- 20:32Speaker 2: of the gods, Ark of Truth. Um, there's, there's nothing
- 20:38Speaker 2: that's been presented to the, the Nafties on Eden that
- 20:41Speaker 2: we haven't seen Ancients be able to do. Like Ascended Ancients. Um,
- 20:46Speaker 2: or even like the Ori could do a lot of that.
- 20:48Speaker 2: Like Priors could do a lot of that shit as well. Um.
- 20:51Speaker 5: Would they know that? Like those, those specific people, would
- 20:54Speaker 5: they know that? Cause I'm sure all that, some of
- 20:57Speaker 5: that stuff is like SGC classified knowledge. But some of
- 21:01Speaker 5: them worked at the SGC or something?
- 21:03Speaker 2: But they're all SGC personnel. They've all been cleared.
- 21:05Speaker 4: They're Icarus personnel.
- 21:06Speaker 2: Yeah, they're Icarus personnel.
- 21:07Speaker 4: But they're not SGC personnel. They wouldn't have read all
- 21:09Speaker 4: the files and known all the villains.
- 21:11Speaker 2: Yeah, but if you're getting... But to me, it's like
- 21:14Speaker 2: SGC is the Pentagon now, right? So they're going to
- 21:17Speaker 2: the next super, super, super, super, super secret version of
- 21:22Speaker 2: what's inside the SGC, which is the Icarus thing. Because
- 21:25Speaker 2: isn't it in... Um, the end of Atlantis, they talk
- 21:28Speaker 2: about that or it might've been the deleted scene where
- 21:30Speaker 2: they talk about this super, super secret nine Chevron project.
- 21:34Speaker 2: So it's like the people attached to Icarus are at
- 21:37Speaker 2: the absolute cutting edge of human advancement in our galaxy.
- 21:44Speaker 1: So they just know everything about Stargate.
- 21:46Speaker 2: No, but they should have a basic knowledge of.
- 21:48Speaker 5: What's going on. They would have had Daniel Jackson do
- 21:50Speaker 5: another video.
- 21:51Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, fuck even.
- 21:52Speaker 5: Give him another meal. Yeah, the Stargate videos.
- 21:54Speaker 2: Yeah, even Eli got the Daniel videos. And he'll go
- 21:58Speaker 2: to those in like a 10-minute ship ride. So all
- 22:01Speaker 2: these people that were, you know, the best in their field,
- 22:04Speaker 2: whether they're, you know, scientists and all that kind of stuff.
- 22:07Speaker 2: It's like, come on, guys.
- 22:09Speaker 4: Come on.
- 22:11Speaker 1: Yeah, what was Dr.
- 22:12Speaker 5: Kane?
- 22:13Speaker 4: What was he? Like, what was his profession? That's a
- 22:16Speaker 4: good question. Jacob might know.
- 22:19Speaker 5: No idea.
- 22:19Speaker 2: I'm going to do something unprecedented, and I'm going to
- 22:21Speaker 2: Google it.
- 22:22Speaker 5: Hey, Holly, listen up.
- 22:24Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree with you, Jacob. I did like how
- 22:28Speaker 4: well every scene was written in this episode. I thought
- 22:31Speaker 4: all the dialogue was well written, whether you believe one
- 22:34Speaker 4: side or not. I didn't think that Cain made a
- 22:38Speaker 4: good argument for Christianity. I think he could have made
- 22:40Speaker 4: a better argument. But I guess maybe because it's an
- 22:45Speaker 4: atheist writing the script. I don't know if he's an atheist.
- 22:47Speaker 4: You know what I mean? But I don't think saying
- 22:51Speaker 4: that God will provide everything, that's not even what happens
- 22:53Speaker 4: in the Bible. They get kicked out of Eden for
- 22:57Speaker 4: having that original sin. And then they have to work
- 23:00Speaker 4: their entire fucking lives.
- 23:01Speaker 3: I think hoping God will prevail is forever.
- 23:05Speaker 1: He's like, nah, bro.
- 23:07Speaker 3: I kicked you out.
- 23:09Speaker 5: You bit that fucking fruit, bitch.
- 23:11Speaker 3: The answer was on the first page of the book, guys.
- 23:13Speaker 3: I don't have to tell you.
- 23:14Speaker 1: I said, don't eat it.
- 23:15Speaker 2: You did. I've just Googled Dr.
- 23:18Speaker 1: Kane.
- 23:19Speaker 2: I'm on the Stargate fandom wiki. And literally once you
- 23:22Speaker 2: go past like his rank, his doctor, his lead, blah, blah, blah.
- 23:25Speaker 2: His very, very top quote is, I'm an IT tech,
- 23:29Speaker 2: you know. I fix Earth computers, not ancient communication devices.
- 23:34Speaker 5: He would have been part of the tech team.
- 23:36Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 23:38Speaker 1: On the Icarus gate, I guess.
- 23:40Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 23:41Speaker 1: And that's why he was stuck on the stones.
- 23:42Speaker 5: Why didn't they just leave him on Eden and just
- 23:44Speaker 5: call him on the phone? Like they don't need him there.
- 23:46Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 23:47Speaker 2: Talk about overqualified. If you're an IT tech, but you're
- 23:52Speaker 2: a doctor, you have a doctorate?
- 23:54Speaker 1: Yeah, in what?
- 23:55Speaker 4: In what? Like engineering?
- 23:57Speaker 5: Religious studies?
- 24:00Speaker 2: It could be.
- 24:01Speaker 1: In archaeology.
- 24:04Speaker 5: Turn the mic back on Winston Churchill. That quote got me.
- 24:09Speaker 5: That was so funny. Oh, I've got that.
- 24:11Speaker 2: I've got that. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
- 24:16Speaker 2: Arthur C.
- 24:16Speaker 5: Clarke. Turn the mic back on. Winston Churchill.
- 24:20Speaker 3: Really?
- 24:22Speaker 5: Really?
- 24:23Speaker 3: Really?
- 24:24Speaker 4: Trust me, guys.
- 24:25Speaker 2: I've got a great quote from Colonel Young, though. Sorry
- 24:30Speaker 2: for the delay, Dr.
- 24:31Speaker 5: Kane. Sorry.
- 24:34Speaker 4: Sorry.
- 24:35Speaker 2: Until he's been living in Vancouver.
- 24:36Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, I noticed that.
- 24:37Speaker 4: Sorry.
- 24:37Speaker 5: Sorry for the.
- 24:39Speaker 1: Delay, Dr.
- 24:39Speaker 5: Kane.
- 24:40Speaker 3: Actually, speaking of even one words like that that people
- 24:43Speaker 3: say in this show, I still just can't get over
- 24:45Speaker 3: Scott whenever he says his own name. Scat.
- 24:48Speaker 1: It's scat.
- 24:49Speaker 2: Scat.
- 24:50Speaker 4: Darn it.
- 24:50Speaker 3: It's not even just like an American version of us
- 24:53Speaker 3: saying a word. I'm an Australian, so I think it's funny,
- 24:54Speaker 3: but it's really like a scat.
- 24:57Speaker 1: Scat.
- 24:57Speaker 3: S-C-A-R-T.
- 24:59Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 24:59Speaker 5: Oh, and he barely pronounces the T as well. Like
- 25:02Speaker 5: that one time where he's like, is he talking to
- 25:04Speaker 5: one of the aliens? Where he's like, scat.
- 25:06Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 25:06Speaker 4: Scat.
- 25:07Speaker 2: It's almost scat. He's almost going scat. Yeah. I do
- 25:10Speaker 2: have one more little great quote from Young, but this
- 25:15Speaker 2: time it comes directly from Louis Ferreira. What is up,
- 25:20Speaker 2: people who love Stargate so much that they watch the
- 25:22Speaker 2: behind-the-scenes commentary?
- 25:25Speaker 3: Sweet props to you guys. He was.
- 25:30Speaker 5: I love that guy. He's so fun.
- 25:32Speaker 1: He's so good.
- 25:34Speaker 2: Can you imagine? I could actually imagine, like, Louis actually playing, like,
- 25:37Speaker 2: an O'Neill-type character. But they've given him just this suicidal,
- 25:43Speaker 2: just emo boy, sad boy, young character. And I'm just like, damn,
- 25:48Speaker 2: he could actually be really, really fun. And he's willing
- 25:52Speaker 2: to go there as well.
- 25:53Speaker 3: Yeah, it's almost like, hey, we want you to play
- 25:55Speaker 3: an O'Neill type. He's like, I can do that. They're like,
- 25:57Speaker 3: from the movie.
- 25:58Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 25:59Speaker 3: You're going to play an O'Neill with one L.
- 26:01Speaker 1: Oh, okay.
- 26:01Speaker 3: I love the way they're able to make that ship
- 26:03Speaker 3: look like it's a flying ship through space.
- 26:06Speaker 5: People sometimes forget that's actually.
- 26:07Speaker 1: Like, not the case.
- 26:11Speaker 2: Like the Gemini Awards. Oh!
- 26:16Speaker 3: He does sound like a good time.
- 26:18Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 26:18Speaker 1: Which one's the Gemini Awards?
- 26:20Speaker 2: That's one of those, like, Canadian award shows, like the
- 26:24Speaker 2: Saturn Awards.
- 26:25Speaker 1: That's right.
- 26:25Speaker 4: Yeah, Shanksy got a few Geminis.
- 26:27Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 26:27Speaker 1: Nominations.
- 26:28Speaker 2: Yeah, so that was his little swipe at them for
- 26:32Speaker 2: not giving a nom for the CGI on Universe. Hmm.
- 26:37Speaker 1: That's a shame.
- 26:37Speaker 2: I was like, well done.
- 26:39Speaker 5: Is this episode the first time that Greer has mentioned
- 26:44Speaker 5: to Scott the fact that he outranks him?
- 26:46Speaker 1: But he doesn't.
- 26:47Speaker 5: He's like, it's my job to make sure that Butterball
- 26:49Speaker 5: lieutenants like you don't... Whatever it was.
- 26:52Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. But he doesn't actually outrank him. So
- 26:54Speaker 2: he's got more experience. He's been in the military longer.
- 26:57Speaker 5: No, he's a master sergeant.
- 26:58Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 26:59Speaker 2: Something like that.
- 27:00Speaker 1: So he's not an officer.
- 27:01Speaker 2: So there's two levels of.
- 27:04Speaker 2: Uh what we've got military personnel there's enlisted and then
- 27:07Speaker 2: there's officers so you when you look at like um
- 27:11Speaker 2: or conscripted well yeah but oh geez don't say that
- 27:15Speaker 2: to jacob it's it's too real for him at the
- 27:16Speaker 2: moment um uh but yeah so there's like the whole
- 27:20Speaker 2: level like because if you look at um uh gary
- 27:24Speaker 2: jones he was like a chief master sergeant you know
- 27:27Speaker 2: whatever thing but they're all enlisted personnel so they actually
- 27:30Speaker 2: haven't been to like the military college like remember um
- 27:34Speaker 2: What was her name? That annoying blonde girl. What was
- 27:37Speaker 2: her name?
- 27:38Speaker 1: Carter.
- 27:39Speaker 5: Oh, Hayley.
- 27:40Speaker 3: Hayley.
- 27:41Speaker 2: Hayley, that's it. Remember, she was like a cadet, and
- 27:44Speaker 2: when she graduates, she goes straight to lieutenant because that's
- 27:47Speaker 2: like the lowest officer in the Air Force. So it's
- 27:51Speaker 2: like lieutenant, captain, major. So by calling him a butter
- 27:57Speaker 2: bar lieutenant, he's basically saying you technically butter bar lieutenant.
- 28:02Speaker 2: So by calling him that, he's saying you're... It's Butterball.
- 28:06Speaker 1: No, Butterbar.
- 28:08Speaker 5: No, it's not.
- 28:09Speaker 2: Play it again.
- 28:11Speaker 1: Play what again?
- 28:12Speaker 2: Oh, did we not play that part?
- 28:13Speaker 5: The term is Butterball, my guy. Are you sure?
- 28:16Speaker 3: He threw out a my guy. Oh, the internet's condescending
- 28:20Speaker 3: language 101. Wow. Whoa. Thanks a lot, Jacob. I'm going
- 28:25Speaker 3: to pay for that now. So is Brendan.
- 28:28Speaker 1: We're going to pay for that. Invite. With sass.
- 28:33Speaker 2: Can everyone just shut the fuck up for a minute?
- 28:34Speaker 2: Because I've just Googled that again. A butter bar is
- 28:38Speaker 2: a military slang for a second lieutenant in the US
- 28:41Speaker 2: Army Marine Corps or Air Force or an ensign in
- 28:43Speaker 2: the Navy. You can all suck whichever part of my
- 28:46Speaker 2: ass reaches you first. In order. Which one of you
- 28:50Speaker 2: would like.
- 28:50Speaker 3: To go first? I was on your side this whole time.
- 28:53Speaker 3: The whole time?
- 28:54Speaker 1: The whole time?
- 28:55Speaker 5: So, wait a second. Are you saying that's an actual thing?
- 28:58Speaker 3: Yes.
- 28:59Speaker 2: That's what I've been trying to say, my guy.
- 29:02Speaker 5: You fuck-ass nerd. How did you know that?
- 29:06Speaker 2: Because I was listening to the fucking audio commentary, you
- 29:10Speaker 2: butterball podcaster.
- 29:13Speaker 5: You guys don't understand English over there, okay?
- 29:16Speaker 2: We originated the language.
- 29:20Speaker 5: I don't believe you.
- 29:21Speaker 2: Okay.
- 29:22Speaker 5: I'm going to believe you, but I don't.
- 29:24Speaker 2: That's a classic American mindset is I've literally Googled it
- 29:27Speaker 2: and I have the fucking facts in front of me.
- 29:30Speaker 2: He's like, I don't believe you. I don't believe you.
- 29:33Speaker 4: I don't believe you.
- 29:35Speaker 2: Fucking bring it up. Bring it up on one of
- 29:37Speaker 2: your fucking computers, boys. Play the scene. Play the scene.
- 29:39Speaker 4: I'll play it you're saying butter bar.
- 29:42Speaker 2: Butter bar bar.
- 29:47Speaker 1: Yeah but he's like i'm like but.
- 29:49Speaker 5: He but he talks with the black sense so like he.
- 29:52Speaker 2: Doesn't really i wouldn't have said that say But yeah,
- 29:56Speaker 2: the term is basically like you're freshly minted. You don't
- 29:59Speaker 2: know what you're talking about. Greer has been in the
- 30:01Speaker 2: military a lot longer and has way more experience.
- 30:04Speaker 4: So you're telling us that you only found out it
- 30:05Speaker 4: was Butterbar while watching the audio commentary?
- 30:08Speaker 2: Yes.
- 30:09Speaker 1: Today?
- 30:10Speaker 2: No, like a week ago when I watched this episode.
- 30:12Speaker 1: Okay.
- 30:13Speaker 3: Because.
- 30:16Speaker 2: Well, I was talking about it and then you interrupted
- 30:18Speaker 2: me and said, no, it's but a ball. I only
- 30:20Speaker 2: just found out this fact last week, but you're a
- 30:22Speaker 2: fucking idiot. Yeah, because I was explaining it and you
- 30:24Speaker 2: all stopped me to say that it was but a ball.
- 30:27Speaker 1: I just didn't understand what you were saying.
- 30:30Speaker 2: When Greer is talking in your same fucking accent, Jacob,
- 30:34Speaker 2: and you couldn't even understand it.
- 30:36Speaker 5: It's not the same accent as me.
- 30:38Speaker 3: Oh, that's right.
- 30:39Speaker 2: He's using a black scent, you racist fuck.
- 30:43Speaker 3: There we go.
- 30:45Speaker 1: Slurs, fellas.
- 30:47Speaker 5: You know what? Retroactively, I get three that's ones just
- 30:50Speaker 5: taken off. I'm actually in.
- 30:54Speaker 4: Credit now.
- 31:05Speaker 1: You just make up whatever rule you want, mate.
- 31:07Speaker 2: Yep, absolutely.
- 31:07Speaker 1: We'll just go along with it.
- 31:08Speaker 5: Absolutely.
- 31:09Speaker 1: Sounds about right. Sounds about right.
- 31:14Speaker 3: Hey, classic youngest child, am I right? It's like, just
- 31:17Speaker 3: walking into the room.
- 31:23Speaker 2: I mean, if you want to get technical, I'm not
- 31:24Speaker 2: actually the youngest anymore, but.
- 31:26Speaker 3: That's... That's a different podcast.
- 31:29Speaker 2: Yeah, it is.
- 31:30Speaker 5: As much shit as I gave Greer just now for
- 31:32Speaker 5: the way he pronounces words, I thought the scene where
- 31:35Speaker 5: he asks for forgiveness from Chloe to be very impactful.
- 31:38Speaker 2: That was just very.
- 31:40Speaker 5: Oh, man.
- 31:41Speaker 2: I had such a conflicting thought about that because the
- 31:46Speaker 2: premise of that scene is fucking bullshit. Like, it makes
- 31:51Speaker 2: no sense. But the way that they... What do you mean?
- 31:55Speaker 1: Like.
- 31:56Speaker 2: Everyone is convinced that Chloe, like Greer says at the
- 31:59Speaker 2: top of the episode, he's like, that girl is turning
- 32:01Speaker 2: into the enemy. We don't know that. Nobody knows that.
- 32:04Speaker 2: Something's happening to her. But there's no confirmation over what's
- 32:08Speaker 2: happening to her.
- 32:08Speaker 5: She's lost control of her, she's, you know, lost control
- 32:12Speaker 5: of her body. Like, you know, she's gone and messed
- 32:15Speaker 5: with stuff. And so they, they can't help but think
- 32:17Speaker 5: that that's dangerous.
- 32:19Speaker 2: Oh, absolutely.
- 32:20Speaker 1: Lost control of one's faculties.
- 32:21Speaker 2: But I mean, again, in a, in a series where
- 32:25Speaker 2: we have the Goa'uld and the Tok'ra. Just because you
- 32:28Speaker 2: turn physically into that alien over there, it doesn't mean
- 32:32Speaker 2: that in your mind you are going to be that alien.
- 32:35Speaker 1: Thanks for the mansplanation. Just wanted to know what you
- 32:38Speaker 1: meant by that.
- 32:39Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's, I just find it weird that everyone's
- 32:41Speaker 2: given up on Chloe, which is fair enough because she
- 32:43Speaker 2: is useless. But it's like they've all just decided.
- 32:46Speaker 5: No, she can do math now.
- 32:47Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. Just throw questions at her.
- 32:51Speaker 5: No woman can do that.
- 32:52Speaker 2: It's impressive. So yeah, I find the premise... And the
- 33:00Speaker 2: fact that Greer is so convinced that at some point,
- 33:04Speaker 2: Young is going to give him the order to put
- 33:05Speaker 2: a bullet in her head. And he's like, I'm going,
- 33:08Speaker 2: I'm definitely going to do that. And I need, I
- 33:10Speaker 2: need your okay. I need, I need to hear you
- 33:14Speaker 2: say it's okay. It's such a fucked up thing to do.
- 33:18Speaker 2: He's like, oh, I need your permission to let me
- 33:21Speaker 2: fucking murder you because we're too dumb to know what's
- 33:23Speaker 2: going on with you. So the whole premise of that
- 33:27Speaker 2: is fucked up to me, but the way they perform it,
- 33:31Speaker 2: you can see how much Greer and Chloe fucking love
- 33:34Speaker 2: each other. So it was so amazing to watch and
- 33:37Speaker 2: I bought every second of it. It was such a,
- 33:39Speaker 2: it was such a weird scene to watch. Like I,
- 33:42Speaker 2: I hated the context and the premise of it, but
- 33:45Speaker 2: I fucking loved the scene because they just sold it
- 33:47Speaker 2: so well.
- 33:49Speaker 5: It's too bad because it's like if she was undergoing
- 33:53Speaker 5: this physical transformation and they were at the SGC and
- 33:57Speaker 5: they had access to Tok'ra intelligence or whatever, they would
- 34:01Speaker 5: be able to cure her.
- 34:01Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 34:03Speaker 5: But it's because they're cut off and they can't. And
- 34:07Speaker 5: they can't even really figure out what's going on.
- 34:10Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 34:10Speaker 2: So I find it weird.
- 34:12Speaker 5: They have to take this fearful approach.
- 34:15Speaker 3: Yes, and I totally.
- 34:16Speaker 2: So that's what.
- 34:17Speaker 5: I bought, even though the fact that, yeah, it probably
- 34:20Speaker 5: isn't as bad as they think, but they can't take
- 34:22Speaker 5: that risk.
- 34:23Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they're just jumping ahead too quickly. Like,
- 34:26Speaker 2: I totally agree that she should be in isolation, she
- 34:29Speaker 2: should be under guard and all that kind of stuff,
- 34:31Speaker 2: but the fact that Greer has already gone four or
- 34:34Speaker 2: five steps ahead and not even said... He was talking
- 34:39Speaker 2: about it so matter-of-factly, like he wasn't even just saying,
- 34:40Speaker 2: I think at some point, young is going to give
- 34:43Speaker 2: the order. Like we're not just going to leave you
- 34:44Speaker 2: on a planet.
- 34:45Speaker 5: Didn't he already do that or something? He didn't, he
- 34:47Speaker 5: already said, you know, what's going to have to happen
- 34:49Speaker 5: at some point.
- 34:50Speaker 2: Yeah. But that doesn't mean conversation. No young, young. And well,
- 34:53Speaker 2: we haven't seen young and green have that, have that conversation. Um,
- 34:58Speaker 2: I don't, ah, maybe I could be wrong there, but
- 35:01Speaker 2: I just, yeah, it was, it was like, Gria's already
- 35:04Speaker 2: at the execution when we don't even know what she's
- 35:07Speaker 2: going to turn into. You know what I mean? Like
- 35:09Speaker 2: it's this, I agree. We should be isolating her and
- 35:12Speaker 2: figuring out what's going on. But the fact that at
- 35:14Speaker 2: the top of the episode, he's like, that girl is
- 35:16Speaker 2: turning into the enemy. Like is so, is so weird
- 35:19Speaker 2: because we haven't even really been able to communicate properly
- 35:21Speaker 2: with the Eiffel 65 people. So we don't actually know
- 35:25Speaker 2: how much of an enemy they are. It could be a,
- 35:27Speaker 2: they just want something on the ship. Like, we don't know. Like,
- 35:30Speaker 2: all they've sent us is the thing saying, like, surrender
- 35:32Speaker 2: or whatever. So, yeah, it's just a weird extra leap
- 35:36Speaker 2: in logic where I'm just like, whoa, whoa, pump the brakes, guys. But, yeah,
- 35:40Speaker 2: the way those two actors did that scene was absolutely
- 35:43Speaker 2: fucking amazing. Even the point where Chloe, like, okay, we
- 35:46Speaker 2: have to say goodbye. She wants to give him a hug.
- 35:48Speaker 2: And he's like, I can't let you do that. Like,
- 35:50Speaker 2: he's not even going to put himself in that position to,
- 35:52Speaker 2: you know, be vulnerable enough in case, you know, that's
- 35:55Speaker 2: not really Chloe he's talking to. That was so fucking good. But, yeah,
- 36:00Speaker 2: I just felt like it was too many steps ahead.
- 36:03Speaker 5: Yeah, fair enough.
- 36:04Speaker 3: I just thought he was just waiting for that because
- 36:07Speaker 3: we know that he loves shooting people.
- 36:09Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 36:09Speaker 3: So it's almost like a fin kill. It's like he
- 36:12Speaker 3: loves shooting enemies.
- 36:13Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 36:13Speaker 3: He was waiting for a chance to cap Simeon, you know,
- 36:16Speaker 3: and he hates Rush at times or Telford or whatever. But, like,
- 36:21Speaker 3: he digs Chloe.
- 36:22Speaker 2: Yeah. What you didn't see from the deleted scenes was
- 36:26Speaker 2: him actually going, Louie, I need your permission. Can I
- 36:31Speaker 2: use my flamethrower?
- 36:32Speaker 3: Oh, just to really make sure. We're going to get
- 36:35Speaker 3: the toxins, yeah.
- 36:36Speaker 2: He's like, I want to enjoy myself.
- 36:38Speaker 3: And he's crying while doing it.
- 36:39Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm so happy.
- 36:41Speaker 3: It's what Pinchy would do.
- 36:44Speaker 5: You smell like bacon when you're burning. Come in. How
- 36:56Speaker 5: are you?
- 36:57Speaker 3: Still me.
- 36:57Speaker 2: Mostly, anyway.
- 37:00Speaker 5: Good to know. Once I've changed completely, the Colonel will
- 37:04Speaker 5: see me as a threat. Won't he? I think so.
- 37:09Speaker 2: What will he do?
- 37:09Speaker 5: Remove the threat.
- 37:14Speaker 3: One way or another.
- 37:16Speaker 4: Will it be you?
- 37:16Speaker 5: Yes, ma'am. I think so.
- 37:22Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
- 37:23Speaker 5: Don't be. I couldn't let it be anyone else.
- 37:27Speaker 3: Is that what you came to tell me?
- 37:33Speaker 5: I came to ask for your forgiveness. For when the
- 37:39Speaker 5: time does come.
- 37:42Speaker 4: Of course.
- 37:43Speaker 5: If I could please hear you say.
- 37:45Speaker 2: I forgive you, Ronald.
- 37:52Speaker 5: Thank you. That's important.
- 38:01Speaker 4: Will I see you again?
- 38:04Speaker 5: It would be better for me if I said goodbye now.
- 38:08Speaker 2: Okay. Jesus Christ. I'm sorry.
- 38:14Speaker 5: I'm sorry.
- 38:18Speaker 2: C-H-L-O-E.
- 38:19Speaker 1: Chloe.
- 38:21Speaker 3: Cut to black.
- 38:21Speaker 2: Chloe, Chloe, Chloe. With the actual staff blast that killed Charley.
- 38:28Speaker 2: Holy shit, man.
- 38:31Speaker 3: That was seamless.
- 38:33Speaker 1: That was excellent.
- 38:34Speaker 3: That was brilliant.
- 38:36Speaker 5: Fuck that.
- 38:36Speaker 3: Fantastic.
- 38:39Speaker 2: No notes.
- 38:40Speaker 1: That is... So brutal.
- 38:41Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 38:44Speaker 5: Perfect.
- 38:44Speaker 2: Absolutely perfect.
- 38:49Speaker 3: Bitch you're like it's a little bit long but yeah
- 38:51Speaker 3: it's like I'm just gonna lull you into a false
- 38:54Speaker 3: sense of emotional security yeah.
- 38:59Speaker 4: He capped that bitch he's sideways too.
- 39:05Speaker 1: So Chloe's dead.
- 39:08Speaker 4: So the thing that I want to bring up about
- 39:10Speaker 4: that is one of our great patrons.
- 39:15Speaker 1: Hannah Pegman.
- 39:18Speaker 5: Oh I love getting pegged by Hannah Absolutely.
- 39:20Speaker 2: I was going to say, Pegman or the Pegman?
- 39:21Speaker 3: I will say, actually, I was meant to read her
- 39:23Speaker 3: name at the start of the episode. This episode is
- 39:26Speaker 3: brought to you by Hannah.
- 39:27Speaker 2: Yeah, this episode is brought to you by Hannah. This
- 39:28Speaker 2: is Hannah's... is Hannah's episode. She's from New Zealand, though.
- 39:32Speaker 2: So is she a Pugman?
- 39:33Speaker 3: I saw that, yes. Pugman? No, it would be, E's
- 39:36Speaker 3: become an I.
- 39:37Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
- 39:37Speaker 3: Pigman.
- 39:37Speaker 2: Pigman.
- 39:38Speaker 3: Pigman.
- 39:39Speaker 1: Pigman.
- 39:40Speaker 4: Hannah says, at 23 minutes in, this is about last
- 39:43Speaker 4: week's episode, 23 minutes in when the mics got turned
- 39:46Speaker 4: down and Maddie's protest in the background, followed by Mitch
- 39:49Speaker 4: trying to get things back on track.
- 39:51Speaker 1: It's hilarious.
- 39:52Speaker 2: That could be any episode, really.
- 39:53Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 39:54Speaker 4: These episodes never fail to make me laugh, and due
- 39:56Speaker 4: to New Zealand not having SGU available to watch on platforms,
- 40:00Speaker 4: this podcast is how I'm watching SGU.
- 40:05Speaker 2: Oh.
- 40:05Speaker 1: So she hasn't seen it. She's just basing it on
- 40:07Speaker 1: this podcast. Oh, my God.
- 40:08Speaker 2: I mean.
- 40:09Speaker 3: P.S.
- 40:09Speaker 4: That Chloe theme is permanently stuck in my head.
- 40:11Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, me too. But that was kind of.
- 40:17Speaker 4: Hannah's saying that was part of the reason why you
- 40:20Speaker 4: wanted to make that.
- 40:23Speaker 3: Can we now, for the sake of Hannah, we do
- 40:24Speaker 3: want to.
- 40:25Speaker 4: Hannah saying that was the reason why I... Part of
- 40:28Speaker 4: the reason why I made that.
- 40:29Speaker 3: We should do what they used to do with Arrested Development.
- 40:32Speaker 3: On the next, Arrested Development. And they would play clips
- 40:35Speaker 3: from an episode that was never happening. It was storylines
- 40:37Speaker 3: that were never followed up. They worked off the episode
- 40:40Speaker 3: you just saw, but were never part of the actual
- 40:42Speaker 3: mythology and canon and stuff. So we could just say
- 40:46Speaker 3: anything to Hannah. Oh my God, that's magic.
- 40:49Speaker 4: That's brilliant.
- 40:49Speaker 5: No, actually, the recaps that they do at the start
- 40:52Speaker 5: of the episode, when I've watched the show in the past,
- 40:55Speaker 5: when I've been binging it, Um, I was kind of
- 40:59Speaker 5: annoyed by those because like, oh yeah, I watched that yesterday.
- 41:01Speaker 5: Like I don't, but, but this time, you know, just
- 41:03Speaker 5: hopping in and watching a few episodes here or there,
- 41:06Speaker 5: I found it really helpful.
- 41:07Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 41:08Speaker 2: I mean, spoiler alert for Mitch, but when we get
- 41:10Speaker 2: to the back end of, of this season, after like
- 41:12Speaker 2: the mid season finale, that's the thing that Brennan and
- 41:15Speaker 2: I've been referencing the whole time where like the, the
- 41:17Speaker 2: previously on keeps including, um, Eli going the whole time.
- 41:22Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 41:22Speaker 2: Right. And you just like every episode you get Eli
- 41:24Speaker 2: going the whole time.
- 41:25Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 41:26Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that starts in the next couple or something.
- 41:29Speaker 5: Because I watched ahead. I couldn't stop. Once we watched
- 41:31Speaker 5: the three that, you know, I was like, I couldn't stop.
- 41:35Speaker 5: I was like hooked.
- 41:37Speaker 2: Jacob texted me today, like live tweeting me as he's
- 41:40Speaker 2: watching Twin Destinies, which is like four episodes away. He's like,
- 41:43Speaker 2: I couldn't stop.
- 41:43Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 41:45Speaker 4: No, like from this point on, it's pretty great science fiction.
- 41:49Speaker 4: It builds really well. Like compared to... I was thinking
- 41:51Speaker 4: about it yesterday. Like I'm watching Dark Matter, not the
- 41:54Speaker 4: Joe Malozzi one, the one on Apple with.
- 41:57Speaker 1: Joel Edgerton. Joel Edgerton. Really fun.
- 41:59Speaker 4: It's kind of like... Yeah, it's like... They go to
- 42:03Speaker 4: different realities through this box. It's really cool.
- 42:06Speaker 1: The box. Oh, shoot.
- 42:07Speaker 4: I was like, apart from that, SGU could be my
- 42:10Speaker 4: favourite show that I'm watching at the moment.
- 42:12Speaker 3: Yeah, right.
- 42:13Speaker 1: It gets to that tier level.
- 42:15Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 42:15Speaker 1: Because everything today for me feels very similar.
- 42:18Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 42:18Speaker 4: Like you get all that colour grading stuff that it's like,
- 42:21Speaker 4: this is a comedy, so it's bright, which comedies always were.
- 42:24Speaker 4: But then they've got that grading, that grey scale.
- 42:28Speaker 2: Especially Apple. And it's so much of the... the writing
- 42:32Speaker 2: is so like that Star-Lord self-referential, you know, taking any
- 42:41Speaker 2: peril or any, you know, heightened emotion out of it
- 42:44Speaker 2: by like making a joke and being self-referential. And there's
- 42:47Speaker 2: actually in, I think, about two episodes time, and this
- 42:51Speaker 2: is me with 2026 goggles on it, can we please
- 42:54Speaker 2: retire forever? You got this or we got this. It just...
- 43:00Speaker 2: I just cannot stand it anymore.
- 43:02Speaker 1: And let's go.
- 43:05Speaker 2: Let's go is fine. Cause let's go. But it's like,
- 43:07Speaker 2: whenever someone's trying to like give someone a pep talk,
- 43:08Speaker 2: they're like, you got this. And I just, I'm so
- 43:12Speaker 2: over it. It just takes me out of it immediately.
- 43:15Speaker 2: It's just, it's become this little bugbear. because it's like
- 43:18Speaker 2: shows that are set a thousand years from now or
- 43:20Speaker 2: shows that are set 50 years ago, they're all saying,
- 43:24Speaker 2: you got this, we got this. And I'm just like,
- 43:27Speaker 2: stop it.
- 43:27Speaker 1: I couldn't get into Discovery because of that.
- 43:29Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 43:29Speaker 1: It's just like that modern vernacular.
- 43:31Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 43:32Speaker 4: Come on, dude.
- 43:32Speaker 2: Certain things should be timeless. And I just, every time
- 43:34Speaker 2: I hear you got this now, I just get douche chills.
- 43:38Speaker 5: I was thinking about the other, I was thinking about
- 43:40Speaker 5: that the other day and there's only really one, like,
- 43:45Speaker 5: colloquial term that I think has hung around forever and
- 43:50Speaker 5: that's the word cool like it's always been cool to
- 43:53Speaker 5: be cool but everything else comes in and out like
- 43:57Speaker 5: you know it's like oh groovy oh you know that's
- 43:59Speaker 5: rad oh that's sick like that's all been dated.
- 44:03Speaker 2: But cool that's fire and now it's like ooh ice
- 44:06Speaker 2: like it's everything is like from happy.
- 44:09Speaker 4: Days they weren't all happy days laughing The Fonz made
- 44:15Speaker 4: that so cool.
- 44:18Speaker 2: See, you haven't spent time with the new arrivals. That
- 44:21Speaker 2: sounds sexual.
- 44:22Speaker 3: No.
- 44:23Speaker 5: Eight science times.
- 44:25Speaker 2: It is.
- 44:25Speaker 5: No survival skills.
- 44:28Speaker 4: I've seen a lot of people go in my time,
- 44:30Speaker 4: and I know I'm going to see more before I'm
- 44:32Speaker 4: done here.
- 44:35Speaker 5: I have never seen anyone come back.
- 44:39Speaker 4: Until now.
- 44:42Speaker 5: Okay, you're being too deep again. that's what she said
- 44:47Speaker 5: literally is that the episode is that the scene where
- 44:50Speaker 5: they're on the observation deck yeah i couldn't focus on
- 44:54Speaker 5: a thing she was saying because her ass was just
- 44:57Speaker 5: like so like i don't know what the way she
- 44:59Speaker 5: was facing in that shot i was like.
- 45:05Speaker 2: Is that is that the scene where they're on they
- 45:07Speaker 2: go to the hydroponics dome thing No.
- 45:11Speaker 1: No, this is in the viewing, in the.
- 45:13Speaker 5: No, on the.
- 45:13Speaker 2: Oh, the main observation lounge. What's the scene? I just,
- 45:16Speaker 2: cause I've got a note here about it.
- 45:18Speaker 1: It was when.
- 45:19Speaker 2: Oh, it's TJ takes God boy there.
- 45:20Speaker 1: Doesn't she?
- 45:21Speaker 2: TJ takes God boy to the hydroponic dome.
- 45:24Speaker 5: No.
- 45:25Speaker 2: Something they said in the audio commentary. That's where they're
- 45:28Speaker 2: just standing at the rail, looking over the hydroponics dome.
- 45:31Speaker 2: That's the gate room. So that little where T.J. and
- 45:35Speaker 2: Godboy are standing.
- 45:36Speaker 1: In production, you mean?
- 45:36Speaker 2: Yeah, where T.J. and Godboy are standing, that's actually the
- 45:40Speaker 2: top part of the stairs from the gate room. And
- 45:42Speaker 2: they just blue screen, green screen the rest of it
- 45:44Speaker 2: to make that. I was like, that's fucking ingenious.
- 45:49Speaker 1: That's movies, babe.
- 45:50Speaker 5: You never would have seen. Yeah. Oh, dude, the number
- 45:54Speaker 5: of cheats of perspective and stuff in movie making is
- 45:57Speaker 5: that you would never realize, but it just makes stuff
- 46:00Speaker 5: look normal. It's unbelievable.
- 46:02Speaker 2: I mean, have you seen the original Godzillas? Like those,
- 46:04Speaker 2: those aren't actually houses. Those are just like cardboard buildings.
- 46:08Speaker 5: It's not a real monster either. Yeah.
- 46:12Speaker 2: It turns out, it turns out the Megazord in Power
- 46:14Speaker 2: Rangers is just a dude in cardboard boxes.
- 46:16Speaker 3: Oh, way to ruin my childhood.
- 46:18Speaker 2: That's bullshit.
- 46:20Speaker 5: I don't believe you.
- 46:23Speaker 2: Speaking of guys inside things though. Just what a Trojan
- 46:25Speaker 2: would say.
- 46:26Speaker 3: The guys on the horse were Greek.
- 46:28Speaker 2: Why is a Trojan horse then? Because they're from Troy.
- 46:30Speaker 2: Because that's what you guys done. That sounds like a
- 46:33Speaker 2: kind of argument we'd have. Oh, actually, that is the
- 46:35Speaker 2: argument we just had earlier about Butterbee. Butterbeer. Butterbar.
- 46:39Speaker 1: Are you saying Butterbee?
- 46:40Speaker 2: I just, yep, I absolutely said Butterbeer that time. Because
- 46:43Speaker 2: I'm transphobic.
- 46:45Speaker 3: Knew it. You're a fake ally.
- 46:49Speaker 5: Fuck trans-exclusive radical feminists. Fuck them. How about be trans-inclusive
- 46:55Speaker 5: radical misogynist?
- 46:58Speaker 3: Fuck, I'm so lost in what you just said.
- 47:01Speaker 1: It all makes sense.
- 47:04Speaker 5: No, it's trans women are women, so they're useless. Like,
- 47:07Speaker 5: that's what.
- 47:08Speaker 2: No, you need to change the radical to something starting
- 47:12Speaker 2: with an S, so that way the abbreviation is tism.
- 47:16Speaker 2: So there's a turf and a tism.
- 47:18Speaker 5: Trans-inclusive super misogynist.
- 47:20Speaker 3: Yes, perfect. Absolutely.
- 47:22Speaker 2: That's the kind of tism I have.
- 47:27Speaker 4: I think Eli's pretty used to this, but this is
- 47:29Speaker 4: exactly what happens every time he talks to a girl.
- 47:34Speaker 4: Somewhere in the dark regions of the universe, where nobody goes,
- 47:39Speaker 4: soars an ancient ship.
- 47:41Speaker 2: Destiny.
- 47:42Speaker 4: Deep within this dank and uninviting place lives Eli.
- 47:46Speaker 2: I'm Math Boy.
- 47:47Speaker 5: Hey. So many of you keeping your distance from us,
- 47:51Speaker 5: I hear.
- 47:52Speaker 2: Meh.
- 47:52Speaker 3: We're all boring.
- 47:53Speaker 2: You're not missing a thing.
- 47:54Speaker 3: The planet. I heard you called it Eden.
- 47:56Speaker 5: We did. I never got to go.
- 47:58Speaker 2: Everybody said it was amazing.
- 48:00Speaker 5: Do you miss it?
- 48:02Speaker 2: Honestly, my memory of it is just now coming back
- 48:04Speaker 2: to me in pieces.
- 48:05Speaker 5: In fact, the strangest memory came back to me when
- 48:08Speaker 5: I was sitting here. What? I'd be embarrassed to say it.
- 48:13Speaker 1: Well, now I have to know.
- 48:15Speaker 5: Skinny dipping. There's the lake. Yeah, no.
- 48:19Speaker 2: I've heard about it already.
- 48:21Speaker 5: Oh.
- 48:21Speaker 2: People were doing that before you guys decided to stay.
- 48:25Speaker 2: You must have checked out the obelisk, right? It was
- 48:26Speaker 2: there the whole time.
- 48:27Speaker 4: Uh, I... Whoa.
- 48:29Speaker 1: Whoa, your nose is bleeding.
- 48:31Speaker 5: Oh, what's happening?
- 48:33Speaker 1: We need help over here.
- 48:35Speaker 3: Somebody get help!
- 48:36Speaker 2: Eva!
- 48:52Speaker 1: There's no pussy down there. He has no riz, mate. Yeah,
- 48:59Speaker 1: listen here. He has no riz. He's like, stop talking
- 49:02Speaker 1: about your titties. Not interested.
- 49:04Speaker 2: Stop talking about swimming naked.
- 49:06Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 49:06Speaker 2: Talk to me about the obelisk. I've heard about that.
- 49:08Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 49:09Speaker 4: No, he has got no charisma.
- 49:11Speaker 2: He was even just like, yeah, I've already heard about that.
- 49:14Speaker 3: She's like, seriously.
- 49:16Speaker 4: Seriously going to tell him about her nudie run.
- 49:19Speaker 1: And he's like, heard about it.
- 49:20Speaker 4: It.
- 49:21Speaker 1: What about the obelisk?
- 49:22Speaker 3: What about that giant shaft thing?
- 49:26Speaker 2: Her final story could have been like, hey, so we
- 49:30Speaker 2: were skinny dipping and then I fell. And then just
- 49:32Speaker 2: out of nowhere, I was just like legs spread, just
- 49:36Speaker 2: like crazy while the entire camp watched. That could have
- 49:39Speaker 2: been her last story to tell. And instead he's like, obelisk.
- 49:42Speaker 2: And she's like, you know what? I think I'm just
- 49:43Speaker 2: going to give myself a brain hemorrhage and start bleeding.
- 49:45Speaker 4: From the brain.
- 49:46Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 49:48Speaker 4: Talking to you is painful so much. Then my brain
- 49:51Speaker 4: is bleeding.
- 49:52Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 49:52Speaker 2: My brain is liquefying out.
- 49:54Speaker 5: She wouldn't have actually died. She just wanted to get
- 49:56Speaker 5: out of the conversation.
- 49:57Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 49:58Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 49:58Speaker 2: The god aliens basically, they all gave them like a switch,
- 50:03Speaker 2: like a little just in their mind. Whenever they think
- 50:06Speaker 2: they've had enough and they're ready to say goodbye to
- 50:08Speaker 2: all the people on the Destiny, they can just subconsciously
- 50:11Speaker 2: click it. And that was her moment. She's like, okay,
- 50:13Speaker 2: now I'm done.
- 50:14Speaker 3: And I'm out.
- 50:14Speaker 1: And I'm out.
- 50:15Speaker 5: This, I don't know. That scene, especially in the moment
- 50:19Speaker 5: where Eli was like, well, now I have to know.
- 50:23Speaker 5: That was the first time where I think I've looked
- 50:25Speaker 5: at David Blue as Eli, and I'm like, you're pretty attractive,
- 50:29Speaker 5: my guy.
- 50:29Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
- 50:31Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 50:31Speaker 5: Maybe I'm just being gay, but I'm looking at him,
- 50:34Speaker 5: and I was like, Dang, like your smile.
- 50:36Speaker 1: The man is handsome, baby.
- 50:38Speaker 2: Yeah, he's very charismatic. Like when the light hits him
- 50:40Speaker 2: just right, he's got great skin. He's got a really
- 50:44Speaker 2: nice like jawline and he's got these big, he's like
- 50:46Speaker 2: Michael Shanks where he's got those really bright eyes and
- 50:48Speaker 2: when the light hits him. What have they gone that far? Oh,
- 50:51Speaker 2: just the eyes. When the light hits it just right,
- 50:53Speaker 2: you're like, oh damn, okay, all right.
- 50:56Speaker 5: And his teeth, he's got nice teeth.
- 50:58Speaker 1: Oh, he's got a.
- 50:58Speaker 2: Very infectious smile, yeah. I think I would have enjoyed...
- 51:04Speaker 2: I think this episode was just maybe a little bit
- 51:06Speaker 2: ambitious for 40 minutes. I almost wish kind of the
- 51:08Speaker 2: Chloe stuff had been moved to like next week or
- 51:10Speaker 2: something like that. And we maybe got to explore the
- 51:12Speaker 2: mystery of the deaths a little bit more. Like by
- 51:17Speaker 2: the time we got to the second one where the
- 51:18Speaker 2: guy's just like spontaneously hypothermic frozen, like, oh, okay. They
- 51:23Speaker 2: froze to death on the planet that, you know, you
- 51:25Speaker 2: kind of solved it yourself straight away. Whereas with the
- 51:27Speaker 2: chick who like had the brain hemorrhage, you're like, oh, what?
- 51:30Speaker 2: happened there because like chloe um tj has that whole
- 51:32Speaker 2: thing about you know oh you know she has all
- 51:34Speaker 2: the signs of being basically beat to death with a
- 51:37Speaker 2: baseball bat but that's not what happened so like yeah
- 51:40Speaker 2: i almost wish there could have been a couple more
- 51:43Speaker 2: innocuous like the there was just like that the the
- 51:46Speaker 2: no-name lady who like just you could tell she died
- 51:49Speaker 2: of like being bitten by something poisonous or ate something
- 51:51Speaker 2: poisonous she just started like i feel like that one
- 51:54Speaker 2: should have happened before the frostbite one Or something like that.
- 51:57Speaker 2: They could have come up with, I think, a few
- 51:58Speaker 2: more interesting, unusual, unexplainable deaths before we went to the hypothermia.
- 52:05Speaker 1: Because it did.
- 52:05Speaker 5: Happen very quickly once everyone's like, oh, they're all dying.
- 52:10Speaker 5: They don't know for sure, but they're just like, oh,
- 52:12Speaker 5: they must just be re-dying.
- 52:15Speaker 2: Yeah. And if it's happening in chronological order, it's like, well, Godboy,
- 52:19Speaker 2: who's the last one to die, because his faith kept
- 52:21Speaker 2: him warm... So it's like the hypothermic one.
- 52:24Speaker 4: He had a warm blanket from Janet.
- 52:27Speaker 2: Who's Janet?
- 52:28Speaker 4: Janet Frazier, the doctor. Remember she loved warm blankets. She did?
- 52:33Speaker 4: She loved it.
- 52:33Speaker 2: Who hates warm blankets?
- 52:34Speaker 5: Can we get some warm blankets over here?
- 52:36Speaker 2: Who doesn't like a warm blanket? But yeah, so I
- 52:39Speaker 2: feel like the hypothermia death should have been like the
- 52:42Speaker 2: last of them. So I feel like, you know, that yeah,
- 52:43Speaker 2: the chick getting bitten or eating something poisonous should have
- 52:46Speaker 2: gone earlier than... You know, yeah, I just, but I
- 52:49Speaker 2: get it because they had, you know, that great Greer
- 52:52Speaker 2: and Chloe scene, you know, there's only so much runtime
- 52:54Speaker 2: they can work with. So they did well for what
- 52:56Speaker 2: was there, but yeah, I think I would have liked
- 52:58Speaker 2: to have explored the death and faith elements a little
- 53:01Speaker 2: bit more and maybe had a bit more of a
- 53:04Speaker 2: back and forward because I feel like everyone was just
- 53:06Speaker 2: kind of like condescendingly just kind of patting old mate
- 53:10Speaker 2: on the head, just going, okay, God boy, sure, no worries.
- 53:14Speaker 2: You keep believing that, you little Jesus freak. and didn't
- 53:18Speaker 2: sort of whereas like you know SG1 it was all
- 53:21Speaker 2: about like Jack was so passionate about being like no
- 53:24Speaker 2: don't bow before these gods don't you know do all
- 53:26Speaker 2: these things you know you're better than that you're worth
- 53:29Speaker 2: more than that false gods yeah so I just yeah
- 53:32Speaker 2: it's just a bit of a bummer but.
- 53:35Speaker 5: I did like how much time they spent with the
- 53:37Speaker 5: TJ story on this episode like her story lately has
- 53:42Speaker 5: been so tragic where she just can't help but think
- 53:45Speaker 5: of her daughter being alive.
- 53:48Speaker 2: I mean, lately, when has TJ's story not been tragic?
- 53:51Speaker 5: Well, right. But in this specific part where it seems
- 53:56Speaker 5: quite obvious that she's just coping with the death of
- 53:59Speaker 5: her infant or a newborn or would have been like,
- 54:02Speaker 5: it died in childbirth, right? So it's like.
- 54:06Speaker 2: I believe that's what your people over there would call a.
- 54:09Speaker 5: That's a late term abortion.
- 54:10Speaker 2: Yeah, no, a post-birth abortion is what TJ had.
- 54:15Speaker 5: But yeah, so it's like that. And she's clearly just
- 54:17Speaker 5: creating this reality to cope with that. In my mind, anyway,
- 54:21Speaker 5: I don't know if that's ever officially said because they're like, oh,
- 54:23Speaker 5: it could be the ship. But anyway.
- 54:26Speaker 2: Yeah, it's hard to know. It is heartbreaking because it's like, yeah,
- 54:29Speaker 2: like TJ was so excited. She's like, oh, my God,
- 54:32Speaker 2: my baby could be on that shuttle. And then the
- 54:34Speaker 2: fact that, yeah, they have no memory of that. They're like,
- 54:37Speaker 2: there definitely weren't any cabins. What do you know? I mean,
- 54:40Speaker 2: that was that was pretty brutal. And as far as
- 54:43Speaker 2: I can recall, that. That might even be the last
- 54:46Speaker 2: like reference we get like to the baby.
- 54:49Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 54:50Speaker 5: It seems like it's kind of wrapped up because she,
- 54:53Speaker 5: she came to a point of acceptance, uh, where she's like,
- 54:57Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I must just, this must just be me
- 55:00Speaker 5: thinking about it.
- 55:01Speaker 3: You know? Oh, that's right.
- 55:02Speaker 5: Cause that was not in so many.
- 55:03Speaker 2: Words, but yeah, that was where God boy got to
- 55:05Speaker 2: that thing that I was whinging about before. We're about the, um,
- 55:08Speaker 2: better place. The baby's just in a better place.
- 55:11Speaker 5: It's fucked up, but technically that's true because raising a
- 55:14Speaker 5: kid on that ship would just be, that's no.
- 55:18Speaker 2: Life for a child. I mean, they're raising a child.
- 55:23Speaker 3: Still going to wipe his ass.
- 55:24Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like the baby would be more useful
- 55:26Speaker 2: than Chloe in a couple of months.
- 55:28Speaker 1: It would be.
- 55:29Speaker 5: If it can do math, yeah.
- 55:31Speaker 3: So when she lost the baby, and I said in
- 55:35Speaker 3: the pod that it was, you know, like she sort of,
- 55:38Speaker 3: came to and they were like, we're really sorry. Like,
- 55:41Speaker 3: you know, the baby's gone, but through her dreamscape thing
- 55:47Speaker 3: that she and the baby were in Eden.
- 55:49Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 55:49Speaker 3: As we later find out to be called Eden, the
- 55:51Speaker 3: baby's there. She comes back. She's still got a, give
- 55:55Speaker 3: birth to that, you know, now deceased unborn child.
- 55:59Speaker 1: Did someone remove it?
- 56:00Speaker 5: No, they pulled it out, didn't they?
- 56:03Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 56:04Speaker 5: That's what I wondered. Did they have to dispose of
- 56:07Speaker 5: its corpse and use it as fertilizer?
- 56:09Speaker 3: So like that happens, right? And so then these guys,
- 56:11Speaker 3: like they've already died somewhere else and then they get
- 56:15Speaker 3: brought here. And then all of a sudden we've got,
- 56:18Speaker 3: how many came through?
- 56:19Speaker 4: Six, eight.
- 56:20Speaker 2: What did Greer say in that clip? I think he
- 56:22Speaker 2: said half a dozen, six or eight.
- 56:24Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 56:25Speaker 3: And it's like, hey, here's eight more dead bodies you
- 56:27Speaker 3: have to worry about now on the ship. It's like,
- 56:28Speaker 3: Jesus Christ. Like, what are they going to, you know,
- 56:31Speaker 3: miraculously sort of, they're just going to disappear. Because, like,
- 56:33Speaker 3: the way that it ends, it's like, oh, well, that
- 56:34Speaker 3: was an adventure. And I'm like, no, but what happens now?
- 56:37Speaker 2: They're definitely fertilizer.
- 56:38Speaker 3: Especially when they walk in and TJ's like, yeah, all
- 56:41Speaker 3: died in their sleep. And I'm like, fuck, there was
- 56:42Speaker 3: a lot of them, man. Like, that is way too
- 56:45Speaker 3: casual for all that death that just happened because, like,
- 56:48Speaker 3: when they're sitting there, they've got hypothermia for no reason.
- 56:51Speaker 5: Yeah. And the fact that I was wondering that the
- 56:55Speaker 5: shuttle was perfect, right? This is factory new. It's got
- 57:00Speaker 5: a new shuttle smell. But are they concerned that the
- 57:06Speaker 5: shuttle is also temporary alive? Like it's just going to
- 57:10Speaker 5: revert to being derelict?
- 57:13Speaker 3: Who's driving that for the first time now? You take
- 57:15Speaker 3: the refurbished one.
- 57:17Speaker 2: Yeah, they did have that line where like, isn't it
- 57:19Speaker 2: weird that it's like they all came back in, you know,
- 57:21Speaker 2: quote unquote, perfect condition, but like such and such still
- 57:24Speaker 2: needed glasses, such and such. Like it was just kind of, yeah,
- 57:26Speaker 2: they just kind of rewound the clock to the, you know,
- 57:29Speaker 2: the last time it was fully functional. So that was
- 57:32Speaker 2: like when they landed on the planet is kind of
- 57:33Speaker 2: what they got rewinded to. Whereas, yeah, with the shuttle,
- 57:36Speaker 2: they just, oh, we'll just give them a new one.
- 57:37Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 57:38Speaker 2: But it was obviously, yeah, it's a long episode just
- 57:40Speaker 2: for us to now get a brand new shuttle.
- 57:42Speaker 1: Cooper. Cooper.
- 57:44Speaker 2: But I do, we used to talk about what they
- 57:46Speaker 2: were doing with the bodies of all these people. Because
- 57:48Speaker 2: in my mind, they'd all sort of eventually disappeared. But no,
- 57:51Speaker 2: that was sort of in all the flashbacks and stuff.
- 57:53Speaker 2: I hope they fed them. Because like, yeah, they've got
- 57:57Speaker 2: to be fertilizer. And, you know, technically, technically, feces are
- 58:03Speaker 2: a water-based lubricant. That's all I'm saying.
- 58:06Speaker 1: All I'm saying.
- 58:06Speaker 5: Hmm.
- 58:11Speaker 3: So I guess you could say this for any episode,
- 58:16Speaker 3: but what was the point of this happening?
- 58:20Speaker 2: You could say that for most of the episodes in
- 58:22Speaker 2: the universe.
- 58:23Speaker 3: Like almost any episode of any TV show, like something
- 58:26Speaker 3: like The Simpsons, which resets at the end of every episode,
- 58:28Speaker 3: what was the point?
- 58:29Speaker 1: To get a shuttle.
- 58:30Speaker 3: But yeah, that's what I mean. Like other than getting
- 58:31Speaker 3: a shuttle, like what did these guys... Yeah.
- 58:35Speaker 4: Well, I guess TJ, we confirmed TJ... Well, is it
- 58:39Speaker 4: confirmed though?
- 58:40Speaker 2: Because she had that dream thing, right? She was unconscious
- 58:44Speaker 2: that whole time. Then we drop out of FTL and
- 58:46Speaker 2: she walks out to the observation room and she sees
- 58:49Speaker 2: the exact nebula thing in space that she saw above
- 58:53Speaker 2: Eden when she was on Eden.
- 58:54Speaker 1: Because the ship gave her that.
- 58:57Speaker 5: Yeah, okay.
- 58:58Speaker 2: I can see that. But the ship hadn't arrived yet.
- 59:00Speaker 2: The ship was still in FTL.
- 59:02Speaker 3: Yeah, but the ship knew. It was getting, yeah. Seed ship.
- 59:06Speaker 3: Seed ship sending back via bluetooth you know check this
- 59:09Speaker 3: shit out when you get.
- 59:11Speaker 5: Here just the seed ships have already been there.
- 59:14Speaker 2: Destiny feels like a dick then. Like if it's really
- 59:17Speaker 2: playing with TJ's mind that much, be like, you know what?
- 59:21Speaker 2: I'm just going to give you this one little hope
- 59:22Speaker 2: that what happened is actually real by feeding her some
- 59:25Speaker 2: stellar cartography maps into her brain as well, just to
- 59:27Speaker 2: fuck with her.
- 59:28Speaker 1: That's kind of, yeah, it's kind of wild.
- 59:30Speaker 2: Ancients are dicks.
- 59:30Speaker 3: Well, that's what I was listening back to.
- 59:32Speaker 5: Oh, the ancients are assholes.
- 59:33Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 59:35Speaker 3: Our podcast the other week, Trial and Error, and I said,
- 59:37Speaker 3: is that like Young's interpretation of how everyone would speak
- 59:41Speaker 3: to him or is that the ship having been.
- 59:42Speaker 1: In everyone's minds?
- 59:43Speaker 3: And we were like, oh, well, it's a good concept.
- 59:46Speaker 3: It's a good thought. And I'm like, as I was
- 59:48Speaker 3: listening back to it, I'm like, no, hang on a second.
- 59:51Speaker 3: In that, TJ told Young about having the baby being
- 59:56Speaker 3: taken away.
- 59:57Speaker 2: Hey, our baby's still at it. No, because he was
- 1:00:00Speaker 2: awake and dreaming. When he was awake, it was real.
- 1:00:03Speaker 2: when he would go to sleep, he would have the
- 1:00:05Speaker 2: dream of the attack and all that kind of stuff.
- 1:00:07Speaker 2: Of the scenario?
- 1:00:08Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:00:08Speaker 2: The scenario was only when he was asleep.
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: Yeah, he'd always wake up.
- 1:00:11Speaker 2: He'd always wake up and he'd be in the real
- 1:00:12Speaker 2: world again.
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: Oh, I just, yeah, okay.
- 1:00:15Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:00:15Speaker 3: Maybe I'm misremembering it. It's like every time.
- 1:00:17Speaker 4: No, because it does, if the first time you watch it,
- 1:00:19Speaker 4: I thought it was meant to be like a window
- 1:00:21Speaker 4: of opportunity thing.
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:00:22Speaker 3: Yeah, that's how I watched it actually.
- 1:00:24Speaker 5: Yeah, okay.
- 1:00:24Speaker 3: All right.
- 1:00:25Speaker 2: Yeah, but no.
- 1:00:26Speaker 5: Mitch, you say, what's the point of this episode? I
- 1:00:28Speaker 5: wonder if it's maybe a season three thing where they
- 1:00:31Speaker 5: were like, you know, they were going to answer that like,
- 1:00:34Speaker 5: and potentially get like a more direct answer from whatever
- 1:00:37Speaker 5: these aliens are. It's like, Oh yeah, we were watching
- 1:00:40Speaker 5: out for you guys. And this was our way of,
- 1:00:42Speaker 5: you know, showing you that you guys staying on the ship.
- 1:00:45Speaker 5: That's the right call.
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: Because these guys, TJ's baby is the equivalent of, um,
- 1:00:50Speaker 2: the Hasisa's child going to live with Oma Dasala kind
- 1:00:53Speaker 2: of thing. You know what I mean?
- 1:00:53Speaker 5: Yeah. And then later in season three, we would have
- 1:00:56Speaker 5: met your course.
- 1:00:57Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:00:57Speaker 2: In season three, we would have met, you know, an
- 1:00:59Speaker 2: eight year old Scarlet. Who's like with these, you know,
- 1:01:03Speaker 2: God beings or whatever, or something like that. Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:01:07Speaker 2: But based on what we get from season one and
- 1:01:09Speaker 2: season two, it does feel kind of unanswered and kind
- 1:01:12Speaker 2: of left behind.
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:01:14Speaker 2: I could be wrong. Like there could be some more
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: references to it later in this season.
- 1:01:17Speaker 4: I don't remember. I got that lead up for TJ.
- 1:01:21Speaker 4: This isn't a joke one, just in case you don't know.
- 1:01:24Speaker 2: Is it them? I just ran into Eli.
- 1:01:26Speaker 3: Well, Eli's got a big mouth. You don't need to
- 1:01:28Speaker 3: be here.
- 1:01:28Speaker 5: Try and stop me.
- 1:01:29Speaker 2: Listen to me, TJ.
- 1:01:30Speaker 5: I know what you must be thinking.
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: You should have told me. What you experienced was a simulation.
- 1:01:33Speaker 5: We know that.
- 1:01:34Speaker 2: No, you know that.
- 1:01:35Speaker 5: If they can send our people back to us, don't
- 1:01:36Speaker 5: you think it's possible they could save our daughter? Nobody
- 1:01:39Speaker 5: mentioned a child. I don't want you to set yourself up.
- 1:01:43Speaker 4: I need to know.
- 1:01:50Speaker 2: You will exit the shuttle one person at a time.
- 1:01:53Speaker 2: Sergeant Greer and members of his team will escort you
- 1:01:55Speaker 2: to a holding area.
- 1:01:58Speaker 3: Peter.
- 1:01:58Speaker 5: Val.
- 1:02:04Speaker 4: She goes into the shuttle looking for the baby. It's
- 1:02:08Speaker 4: so heartbreaking. She's like, where's the car seat?
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: And then here at this point, she nearly broke down.
- 1:02:21Speaker 5: She's a great actor.
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: And she says she's fine i felt i felt like
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: i kind of wanted her.
- 1:02:31Speaker 4: To kind of let go at that point just like
- 1:02:34Speaker 4: let it all out yeah i don't know there's something
- 1:02:36Speaker 4: about me that just was like just let it out.
- 1:02:38Speaker 2: I'd love to see it but it does also track
- 1:02:40Speaker 2: with her character is this whole way through she's had
- 1:02:44Speaker 2: to put herself second yeah you know what.
- 1:02:46Speaker 4: I mean at that moment right there that was like
- 1:02:48Speaker 4: the the climax of that story.
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: And I was just like, I was just hoping for
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: a little bit more.
- 1:02:53Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:02:54Speaker 4: But I think if she had started, you piece of
- 1:02:57Speaker 4: fucking shit, I can't believe, you know, like it's his
- 1:02:59Speaker 4: fault that the baby's dead indirectly.
- 1:03:02Speaker 5: Who?
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: It's, um, young's fault. Oh, indirectly.
- 1:03:06Speaker 4: Yeah. So like, yeah, I just, I don't know. I
- 1:03:09Speaker 4: was waiting for something bigger.
- 1:03:11Speaker 5: Absolutely.
- 1:03:12Speaker 2: I think that would be amazing. And I think, I think, um, Yeah.
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: Elena Huffman would have absolutely killed that.
- 1:03:17Speaker 4: She broke down and that's when he's actually finally has
- 1:03:20Speaker 4: to console her. Cause at the moment he's just a
- 1:03:22Speaker 4: fucking asshole to her.
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:03:24Speaker 5: He's been so cold. Yeah.
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: Yeah. But it is, it is great. Like it, it,
- 1:03:28Speaker 2: it is a, it is, I feel true to her
- 1:03:31Speaker 2: character in the way that it's like she was, she
- 1:03:34Speaker 2: of anyone, she was not supposed to be here. You know,
- 1:03:36Speaker 2: she was leaving the military and she ended up on the,
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: on the destiny and, you know, she was leaving young
- 1:03:42Speaker 2: and now she had the baby and then she couldn't leave.
- 1:03:45Speaker 2: She couldn't stay on Eden because she's the only medic.
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: She's the doctor. So she was made to stay. She
- 1:03:52Speaker 2: was made to put the welfare of everyone else ahead
- 1:03:55Speaker 2: of her. She's always having to, she's always being told
- 1:03:57Speaker 2: and always having to put herself second. So then the
- 1:04:00Speaker 2: fact that, you know, she's about to, there's a moment
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: she thinks she's going to reunite with her baby and
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: then she's not there. So again, she kind of just,
- 1:04:10Speaker 2: buries that she just buries it into herself and goes
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: back into work money she's like oh okay i've got
- 1:04:14Speaker 2: to give these these um uh physicals to these people
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: and i need to go back into and it's and
- 1:04:21Speaker 2: it's heartbreaking it's absolutely heartbreaking like you know chloe keeps
- 1:04:25Speaker 2: whinging about how hard it is for her and what
- 1:04:27Speaker 2: a terrible time she has napping and i'm like try
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: being tj for a day yeah you couldn't do it
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: yeah so yeah it's one of those like um it's
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: like you were saying like maybe maybe a season three
- 1:04:37Speaker 2: breakdown would have been great but like brendan said it's
- 1:04:40Speaker 2: like this would have been the perfect moment for her
- 1:04:42Speaker 2: to just be like, this is too much.
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: This is it.
- 1:04:45Speaker 4: This is the final straw. And her just absolutely losing.
- 1:04:48Speaker 4: The scene was great. It was like fantastic acting. I
- 1:04:51Speaker 4: was just, I was like, Ooh, I wanted more. Cause
- 1:04:54Speaker 4: we just seem to just disregard anything that TJ wants.
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: Oh, this sucks, dude.
- 1:04:59Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. She really gets, gets the rough end.
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: It's terrible.
- 1:05:04Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:05:04Speaker 3: She could have screamed like old mate that, that died
- 1:05:07Speaker 3: first after talking to Eli, like that, that scream went
- 1:05:10Speaker 3: on for a while.
- 1:05:11Speaker 4: It was, yeah, that was going to cut some of it,
- 1:05:13Speaker 4: but I'm like, no, I'm going to leave it.
- 1:05:16Speaker 2: Cause Eli's like, I've never made a woman scream.
- 1:05:20Speaker 3: Tell me about your sex dream about me.
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: Oh, do you know what vision?
- 1:05:24Speaker 3: So I just, I'm sorry. Just, I just, I just could,
- 1:05:27Speaker 3: I'm like, did I miss something when she's like, we
- 1:05:30Speaker 3: were skinny dipping. He's like, I don't worry. People have
- 1:05:32Speaker 3: been doing that since before you went to some alien planet.
- 1:05:35Speaker 3: Like what are you, what, What question are you answering?
- 1:05:39Speaker 3: What the fuck?
- 1:05:40Speaker 5: Oh, Eli's in the hydroponics. He's naked in the hydroponics.
- 1:05:43Speaker 2: He's like, no, I've heard that story because he went
- 1:05:44Speaker 2: down to Eden, didn't he? No.
- 1:05:46Speaker 4: Oh, no, he did. That's what he says. I didn't
- 1:05:48Speaker 4: get to go down.
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: That's right.
- 1:05:49Speaker 4: People told me that they were skinny dipping. It's like, yeah,
- 1:05:51Speaker 4: but you didn't hear it from this bird.
- 1:05:53Speaker 2: Yeah, this beautiful woman wants to tell you about the
- 1:05:55Speaker 2: time she was skinny dipping. And he's like, no, I
- 1:05:56Speaker 2: don't want to hear about that. Tell me about the
- 1:05:58Speaker 2: ancient artifact.
- 1:06:00Speaker 5: Tell me about the big black thing.
- 1:06:01Speaker 2: Yeah. Not to bring it back down again, but I just,
- 1:06:04Speaker 2: while you guys were talking, I had this like, visual
- 1:06:07Speaker 2: image that I think would have absolutely wrecked everyone. You
- 1:06:09Speaker 2: know how like the end of most episodes that there was,
- 1:06:12Speaker 2: there's always some kind of like montage to music and
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: stuff like that. And obviously this one, we just had
- 1:06:16Speaker 2: like the flash and that was it, you know, kind
- 1:06:18Speaker 2: of thing. Imagine if there was a montage and it's
- 1:06:21Speaker 2: all the crew sort of dealing with everything and there's
- 1:06:24Speaker 2: just to music and there's no sound. You see TJ
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: walk into the shuttle, close the door. So it's like
- 1:06:30Speaker 2: airproof and soundproof and just fucking scream. And, just have
- 1:06:35Speaker 2: that complete mentee be emotional breakdown, fall to the ground, crying, screaming. And,
- 1:06:42Speaker 2: you know, and then it cuts to something else and
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: you cut back to her times past and she just
- 1:06:47Speaker 2: gathers herself up.
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: Hmm.
- 1:06:49Speaker 2: Opens up the doors, pins her hair back up or whatever,
- 1:06:52Speaker 2: and then walks back out to be, you know, LT again.
- 1:06:54Speaker 3: And Schrodinger's baby at that point, right? Like, you know,
- 1:06:58Speaker 3: like she'd accepted that she knew what was happening.
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:07:02Speaker 3: One percent. And then it was like, oh, fuck, cool,
- 1:07:04Speaker 3: an answer here. And then everyone just, it was almost
- 1:07:06Speaker 3: not even like, oh, well, people weren't looking back at
- 1:07:08Speaker 3: her the same way she was looking at them because
- 1:07:11Speaker 3: they didn't know the half a story that she knew.
- 1:07:14Speaker 3: They were almost looking at her like, oh, you're still here.
- 1:07:16Speaker 2: Like.
- 1:07:17Speaker 3: But were they judging her for not staying? Or, I
- 1:07:19Speaker 3: don't know, it was weird. It was like just a
- 1:07:21Speaker 3: quick look by a couple of them as they walked past.
- 1:07:23Speaker 3: It was like they were looking at her aggressively or
- 1:07:25Speaker 3: judgy or something.
- 1:07:26Speaker 2: Or was it an over-familiarity? Because she, I mean, even
- 1:07:31Speaker 2: when she was on Eden in the Mindscape thing, she
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: didn't really... engage with people a lot she mostly spoke
- 1:07:37Speaker 2: with um god boy yeah so yeah yeah it did
- 1:07:41Speaker 2: feel like she was a little too eager a little
- 1:07:43Speaker 2: too over familial and they were just like oh that's
- 1:07:44Speaker 2: weird um but then it was also weird for them
- 1:07:48Speaker 2: to also be like why are you treating us like
- 1:07:50Speaker 2: without setting young why are you treating us like we're
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: not welcome why would it's like well tj literally did
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: that and you just walk past her and we're all
- 1:07:56Speaker 2: weird about it so like what do you want guys
- 1:07:58Speaker 2: like you know you don't have to be jarring like
- 1:08:01Speaker 2: you don't have brain damage yet like Well, but it would.
- 1:08:04Speaker 5: Be jarring to be, like, ushered around my military personnel
- 1:08:07Speaker 5: in a hostile manner and then one person just be like, oh,
- 1:08:10Speaker 5: my God, like, hi. You know, you're like, what? Yeah.
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: Person that I can't remember very well.
- 1:08:17Speaker 2: Yeah. They're like, oh, you were the pregnant girl. I
- 1:08:19Speaker 2: didn't recognize you without the belly.
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: That's right.
- 1:08:22Speaker 2: And the hair down. When you got your hair up,
- 1:08:24Speaker 2: you looked totally different.
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: Mitch, remember how I told you Camille Ray is so overqualified?
- 1:08:29Speaker 3: Yeah. She can do everything.
- 1:08:32Speaker 4: I'd like to put you and the others from the
- 1:08:34Speaker 4: shuttle under hypnosis.
- 1:08:35Speaker 2: See if I can stimulate memories from your subconscious.
- 1:08:38Speaker 3: Did the IOA teach you that? Yeah, they did.
- 1:08:40Speaker 5: Anything else I should know about?
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: That I was a little overqualified for HR. Okay, so
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: fan theory, fan theory, fan theory. The IOA poached her
- 1:08:52Speaker 2: from the CIA.
- 1:08:55Speaker 1: Obviously.
- 1:08:56Speaker 2: And she's some kind of CIA operative and she knows
- 1:08:59Speaker 2: all this.
- 1:09:00Speaker 5: Things.
- 1:09:02Speaker 4: I mean, she could use it more if she wanted to.
- 1:09:07Speaker 2: It's just a slow burn.
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: It is a slow burn. You wait. She gets even better.
- 1:09:10Speaker 2: You wait till season three. She's amazing in season three.
- 1:09:16Speaker 5: I wonder if they were intending to tell us more
- 1:09:20Speaker 5: about her, you know?
- 1:09:22Speaker 2: Cause there's all the shady shit she was doing. Was
- 1:09:24Speaker 2: it last season when she went back to earth and
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: there was, she was talking with the IOA guy when
- 1:09:28Speaker 2: there was the whole coup and all that kind of stuff.
- 1:09:31Speaker 2: And she was like, Oh, I don't know which camp
- 1:09:32Speaker 2: to be in the young or the rush camp and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 1:09:35Speaker 2: So yeah, I think, you know, there's more there, but,
- 1:09:40Speaker 2: Maybe after– I feel like there is– it's hard to
- 1:09:43Speaker 2: tell whether this was all pre-planned or maybe after season
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: one they're like, okay, we need to add some fresh–
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: because you've got to remember, Ming-Na originally wasn't part of
- 1:09:52Speaker 2: the regular cast. She was like Lou Diamond Phillips. She
- 1:09:55Speaker 2: was only going to be in and out. Yeah. And
- 1:09:57Speaker 2: then midway through season one she became regular cast. So
- 1:10:02Speaker 2: I feel like this season it's like, okay, we need
- 1:10:04Speaker 2: to give Camille something more. We need to make Chloe
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: like ten times more interesting because So they're just slowly
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: like trying to, you know, redirect these characters in ways
- 1:10:15Speaker 2: to make it sort of easier for them to write to.
- 1:10:19Speaker 2: I guess in the same way with Atlantis, they got
- 1:10:21Speaker 2: to the end of season one and went, God, Ford
- 1:10:23Speaker 2: is boring. Let's do something else.
- 1:10:25Speaker 3: Let's have him fall from somewhere really high.
- 1:10:28Speaker 5: He could have been good though. I just don't think
- 1:10:31Speaker 5: they wrote for him well.
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean.
- 1:10:35Speaker 5: It would be cool to have him building bombs and stuff.
- 1:10:37Speaker 5: He was a demolitions expert. That could have been really cool.
- 1:10:41Speaker 2: Imagine if Ford had a bit more of Greer in him.
- 1:10:46Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:10:47Speaker 2: Maybe Ford was like the prototype Greer. Imagine if Ford... Why?
- 1:10:51Speaker 5: Because he's black?
- 1:10:53Speaker 3: Wow. Wow.
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: Yeah, diversity. You have to have a token black. Yeah,
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: you got to have a token black guy.
- 1:10:58Speaker 2: You got to have a token black guy with big
- 1:11:00Speaker 2: muscles who's into weapons like teal.
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: And Ford and Green.
- 1:11:05Speaker 2: Yeah, so that would have been funny if, like, yeah,
- 1:11:09Speaker 2: Ford had been exploring Atlantis and just, like, making flamethrowers and,
- 1:11:13Speaker 2: you know, making Nacwita-enhanced bombs and shit like that.
- 1:11:17Speaker 4: But they didn't.
- 1:11:19Speaker 5: They made him a drug addict.
- 1:11:22Speaker 2: With Lenny Kravitz glasses.
- 1:11:25Speaker 3: All right, that is episode 338 of Get Into Gates.
- 1:11:31Speaker 3: We'll be back next week to talk.
- 1:11:34Speaker 4: Resurgence.
- 1:11:35Speaker 3: Is this episode 10? Maddie, is it a mid-season finale?
- 1:11:43Speaker 5: Why don't you like that?
- 1:11:45Speaker 2: It's stupid.
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: Mid-season.
- 1:11:48Speaker 5: You're stupid.
- 1:11:50Speaker 2: This is coming from the American.
- 1:11:51Speaker 4: It's called Halftime.
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: It's a sports reference.
- 1:11:54Speaker 2: Half time's fine, but a mid... Okay, so you're telling
- 1:11:57Speaker 2: me when the siren goes off at half time at
- 1:11:59Speaker 2: a football game, you guys call it the mid-season finale
- 1:12:01Speaker 2: of the game? Get fucked. The problem I have is
- 1:12:04Speaker 2: mid-season finale.
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: Mid-season state of origin, yeah.
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: Mid-season finale.
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: It's not.
- 1:12:09Speaker 2: Okay, then why isn't the fourth act break the mid-episode finale? Like,
- 1:12:13Speaker 2: what the fuck are we doing?
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: What are you talking about?
- 1:12:15Speaker 2: What are you talking about?
- 1:12:16Speaker 5: I'm saying.
- 1:12:17Speaker 2: It's got nothing to do with acts. So neither does
- 1:12:20Speaker 2: a mid-season finale. That's what I'm saying. The terminology.
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: A mid means like halfway through.
- 1:12:25Speaker 4: Right.
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: So halfway through the season, they have a break. So
- 1:12:30Speaker 2: halfway through the episode, it's the mid-season act break. Oh, sorry,
- 1:12:34Speaker 2: the mid-episode act break.
- 1:12:35Speaker 5: No, it's not. They're not coming back 30 minutes later. No,
- 1:12:37Speaker 5: they're not.
- 1:12:39Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's not.
- 1:12:41Speaker 4: I just think it's... It's like half the season.
- 1:12:42Speaker 2: It's stupid marketing.
- 1:12:43Speaker 4: I hate it.
- 1:12:44Speaker 2: I just think it's dumb. Like, mid-season finale. Like, what
- 1:12:47Speaker 2: are you doing?
- 1:12:47Speaker 5: Well, you don't work in marketing anymore, now do you?
- 1:12:51Speaker 2: Nor do any of the people that worked on this
- 1:12:53Speaker 2: show because they're all fucking unemployed in six months' time
- 1:12:55Speaker 2: after this.
- 1:12:56Speaker 4: Oh!
- 1:12:57Speaker 2: So maybe if they hadn't kept fucking doing these mid-season finales,
- 1:13:00Speaker 2: they'd still be running.
- 1:13:02Speaker 5: Oh!
- 1:13:02Speaker 2: I don't think that was the thing.
- 1:13:04Speaker 5: Everyone was doing that.
- 1:13:05Speaker 3: Someone at MGM called and went, all right, sit down.
- 1:13:07Speaker 3: What the fuck's with this mid-season finale bullshit?
- 1:13:11Speaker 2: Go back to seasons one through, what, eight? Or one
- 1:13:14Speaker 2: through seven of SG1 and find me a mid-season finale.
- 1:13:18Speaker 2: They don't exist. Those were when it was 22 episodes
- 1:13:22Speaker 2: a season. As soon as they started dropping back to
- 1:13:24Speaker 2: 20 episodes a season, it was 10 and 10. So
- 1:13:26Speaker 2: they would do this mid-season finale. So every Atlanta season
- 1:13:29Speaker 2: had a mid-season finale. So does this shit. Yeah, then
- 1:13:31Speaker 2: they can spend more money on the special effects.
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: It's awesome.
- 1:13:35Speaker 4: How?
- 1:13:36Speaker 2: They're still doing 20 episodes.
- 1:13:37Speaker 5: They were dropping so much money on this show.
- 1:13:39Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, but I'm saying- Three million an episode, that's unbelievable.
- 1:13:42Speaker 2: Atlantis was doing 20 episodes a season, regardless of whether
- 1:13:45Speaker 2: there was a mid-season finale or not. They still had
- 1:13:47Speaker 2: to do 10 episodes and then 10 episodes. Sorry, Jacob,
- 1:13:51Speaker 2: how much did they spend?
- 1:13:53Speaker 5: Three million an episode.
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: Far out. I didn't know that.
- 1:13:58Speaker 4: I knew they spent a lot on the sets, the
- 1:14:01Speaker 4: set design and set production, but wow, that's crazy.
- 1:14:07Speaker 5: I don't know if that's an average over the season
- 1:14:08Speaker 5: or if that's literally like a weekly, you know.
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:14:13Speaker 3: Well, Matty may not like it, but we are doing
- 1:14:16Speaker 3: a double episode.
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: It's happening anyway.
- 1:14:17Speaker 3: The mid-season finale ends the mid-season premiere 2.0 or whatever
- 1:14:25Speaker 3: we might want to call it. C.
- 1:14:27Speaker 2: What's the two-parter? What's the name of when they come back?
- 1:14:30Speaker 2: I don't know. C, shitty marketing.
- 1:14:34Speaker 1: That's what we'll be talking about.
- 1:14:35Speaker 5: The mid-season conclusion.
- 1:14:36Speaker 4: Oh. That's horrible.
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: And now, the finale.
- 1:14:41Speaker 3: And now, the conclusion.
- 1:14:42Speaker 2: How do you have a finale and then a conclusion? Sorry,
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: I just misspoke. This is Butterbar all over again.
- 1:14:47Speaker 5: The mid-season penultimate and then the mid-season.
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: Are you saying Nagata?
- 1:14:53Speaker 2: Get into Geek.
- 1:14:56Speaker 3: Get into Geek, Stargate podcast.
- 1:14:59Speaker 2: Get into it now before it's too late.
