Latest / Get Into Gate: A Stargate Podcast / Episode 250: Echoes (SG-A 3.12)
Transcript
- 0:25Get into gates and look, let's just fire this off. Listen two hundred
- 0:31and fifty, like we should replace the hip hop horn with like just the
- 0:40sounds of the whales. Oh you, that sounded a little bit of we
- 0:45are talking to us, not just wales, because that's where I thought you
- 0:48were going. What two episodes ago we were talking about the return parts one
- 0:52and two, and you were discussing something else that we don't need to necessarily
- 0:55repeat, but you can go back to us, just go and say,
- 0:57just say, I want to hear you say it and clip and one of
- 1:00you guys, I believe it was large and large. I'm so sorry the
- 1:04context and you're like, oh wait till next week and then were the whale?
- 1:07I know someone is an episode called Brendan Fraser. Brendan Fraser cameos,
- 1:14but no, we're talking about echoes, which obviously you know it's got to
- 1:15do with you know Salas. Yes, so I mean, yeah, okay,
- 1:19I told you that in private. I think you all just didn't have
- 1:26any any goal at all. Like you you there's six children between the two
- 1:30of you, not one of them who keeps saying that because it's wild to
- 1:34me, because we can never get to each other because it's literally six children
- 1:38between it. Yeah. The fact that none of you like gave them the
- 1:42middle name Flagisalis is ridiculous. It is. I mean, when Peter Griffin
- 1:46tells us that meg Griffin's real name is actually Megatron Griffin, like I've literally
- 1:52said it on this podcast before. Yeah, It's one of those things,
- 1:55is probably. It's so funny every time, like when you hear it for
- 1:57the first time that I make myself forget it so that when I hear it
- 2:00someone someone calls me Megan or whatever Megan and she's like, that's not my
- 2:04name, and like, well, what's make short for it? And turns
- 2:07out Mega sure for Megatron, So that's what that's what's on. Bertificate so
- 2:10good, Megatron Griffin, that's so good. And Stewie, oh god,
- 2:16Gilligan Griffin. Yeah, Stuart Stuart Gilligan Griffin is Jewish. Is Jewie's full
- 2:23name? I wonder he hates his parents. Shout out to all the Gilligan's
- 2:25out there. We're in the Pegasus Galaxy for episode two hundred and fifty,
- 2:31talking about echoes, a lot of whales going on. Just Alice just auris
- 2:38what's a really scientific word for the sun in large clip exploding. It's got
- 2:46a real climax at the end of yea, this is what I do.
- 2:49It's a coronal mass ejection. Lock up the mountain, Lock up the mountain,
- 2:55the welfare. Yeah, that's what he's been doing for the last two
- 3:00seasons that has been retired. Yeah, right, bearing down for a coronal
- 3:02mass ejection. Brendan, why don't you fire up our trusty friends and future
- 3:08makers of the Stargate franchise Amazon and let me read the old synopsis for this
- 3:15for this episode. Maybe it's a nice transition. We went from reading the
- 3:17synopsis. Okay, sure it's because I keep forgetting my DVDs, but we
- 3:21did start reading them off the back of DVDs, and now I'm forcing myself
- 3:25to transition that. That's very modern of you. Course. Thank you to
- 3:31the from Well, I don't think from Amazon. Do any of us have
- 3:37the STU DVDs s gu Yeah, absolutely do. There's no synopsis on them,
- 3:43though, I don't think they don't come with a synopsis book or anything.
- 3:45No, I'm just asking, Oh, no, I have I have
- 3:47physical media of every single Stargate except for the Children of the God's remake.
- 3:52Yeah, WLD origins. I did buy that, but it was just I
- 3:55think, you know, limited edition, well and yeah, just you know.
- 3:59It was back when six made, I lived at home and I thought,
- 4:01you know, half of my page should have just forwarded directly onto JB
- 4:05High Fight because it was going to be spent there anyway. And I'm like,
- 4:08oh, I've got to do this to complete my set. And then
- 4:10I got older. Origins got created, and I'm like, I don't care
- 4:13how many physical copies you make of that. I can use it as a
- 4:15coaster, yes, because there's no boobs or bush in. Yes, you
- 4:19couldn't. You couldn't you too, Origins to me, like, I would
- 4:23just be like you couldn't. Like if that just appeared somewhere, I'd be
- 4:26like delete, delete, delete, delete delete, like case, throw out
- 4:30physical media. It is good that there is like one worse than SGU,
- 4:34because I feel like SGU on its own, in a different kind of franchise,
- 4:41wasn't starting like yeah, well yeah, it was trying to be a
- 4:44Battlestar Galactica. That's why now that Jacob the good One is watching the word
- 4:50that he is with with a Star chapter Ellen Ellen how because he said Universe
- 4:58was was it the first one that he watched? Just his favorite? So
- 5:00he watched it first? Right, Yeah, with Ellen? He made Ellen
- 5:02watch SGU first because it was his favorite. It was his favorite, but
- 5:05it was her first watch. How's he feeling now, do you know?
- 5:09Like I think he said he actually it might have dropped down because I think
- 5:13he watched it a lot, and he said like he's this may as well
- 5:15be his first watch through of Atlantis. He knows next to nothing about Atlantis,
- 5:19but rewatching Stargate with SG one with Ellen, He's like, oh,
- 5:23this is way better than I remember. Yeah, So I think he's at
- 5:26the point now where he's like, well, maybe MAYBEESGU isn't my favorite.
- 5:29I wonder what that. Yeah, next watch through of the Universe is going
- 5:31to be then once he's watched everything else and something. I guess they do
- 5:36want to come on the podcast eventually, so I think they'll be they'll be
- 5:40here in the country around about the time we're doing Universe. Female co host
- 5:44are you mad in the Booths? Just flatgis Allison al Right? Episode twelve
- 5:53of season three of at Lattice Echoes Taylor begins to see apparitions of ancients in
- 5:58distress and believe they are the ghosts of the ancients recently massacred by the replicators.
- 6:03McKay believes he's found the whale that saved him a year ago while trapped
- 6:06in a submerged puddle Jumper. Those sound like two completely different episodes kind of
- 6:13both shit, yeah, well yeah, very very strange, like and I
- 6:20watched this sort of like in two halves and so what I thought, you
- 6:24know, it was going to be about. And then I, you know,
- 6:26come back a couple of days later and watch it. I'm like,
- 6:28oh no, it was nothing like that, you know, And because I
- 6:31just I just when you told me you don't watch the first half there that
- 6:34I'm like, I almost said something that I was like, oh god,
- 6:36he hasn't even probably hasn't even got to the part where the Dedalus shows up,
- 6:40and then they do all the cool ship the sun. Yeah yeah,
- 6:42yeah. One interesting is the story about whales and ghosts. Yeah, basically,
- 6:45the whales are coming how long and they're you know, they got their
- 6:48echo location shit going on. They're creating disturbances and visions in people's heads.
- 6:54I mean, why they zombie ancients who knows. But are they just because
- 6:57they wanted something scary and it's up to everyone's own interpretation. They're just sending
- 7:00out signals and whatever you're afraid of. But then the fact that it was
- 7:01a shared vision by everybody, they were all seeing the same thing, It's
- 7:05like, Okay, well this is a design. It's not just a you
- 7:09know what Taylor would see. And then yeah, coming in it's like,
- 7:12oh yeah, by the way, the Sun's just going to sort of have
- 7:14a little bit of a blast, And it's the story planning is in this
- 7:16galaxy before, in this solar system before, so we need to be careful.
- 7:18It is a wild if you try and like describe this episode in broad
- 7:23strokes, it's like you have to say people, people are having visions because
- 7:28whales are sensing a solar events. That's a wild sort of sentence to weave
- 7:32together. Yeah, but I have to say, I really really like this
- 7:38episode. I always been really looking forward to this one, and I can't
- 7:42quantify why. I just I always really enjoy this episode. And I don't
- 7:47know if it is fact that, like I said back in Phantoms, I
- 7:50always get confused about even though I really really like this episode. I always
- 7:55forget that it's called Echoes because I think, oh, Phantoms, Oh yeah,
- 7:58that's the ghost one. Yeah, you know, so maybe it's just
- 8:01the fact that Phantoms sucks so hard and this this like pops off that sort
- 8:07of It's like every time I put on I was like, oh, yeah,
- 8:07it's the good one. It's a good one. All right, let's
- 8:09go here we go. Yeah, but yeah, I just think like all
- 8:13the all the whales, Like we don't really get to find out much about
- 8:20the actual Atlantis planet, Like, yes, the Smelly Taylor's people are living
- 8:26on the mainland and we have to evacuate them off screen every time something bad
- 8:28happens. But to know that we're kind of connected to the ancients via the
- 8:33Flagisalus and the story that they're telling generationally, and now telling that story back
- 8:39to us on Atlantis, I think is a really cool sort of way to
- 8:43incorporate remind us that Atlantis has been sitting under the ocean for ten thousand years,
- 8:50and you know it was on that planet for millions. Like the very
- 8:54very first shot of the first episode of Atlantis is Atlanta's leaving Earth several million
- 8:58years ago. Wouldever, it is like this mother has been around for longer
- 9:03than we ever really think about. Yeah. So I just love that that
- 9:07connectivity. So you have this cool like character building stuff and it's all interesting,
- 9:11and then you just have just in some of the coolest cigre at the
- 9:15end with like the Dadalus just like going head first into this coronal mass ejection
- 9:20and and like the in the sun just like and the diverse. Oh I
- 9:24just love it. Yeah. Yeah, just quick sidebar, Like you just
- 9:28said that Taylor's people, we just have to the only time we ever hear
- 9:31of them is when we have to relocate them for some reason. It's been
- 9:35that way for two full seasons. Well that was gonna be my thing,
- 9:41is though. Yeah, in the last episode when like ever so briefly,
- 9:43the ancients return to Atlantis, and you know, Shepherd whoever goes up to
- 9:50Taylor and says, oh, so, what's going to go on with you
- 9:52guys, Like, well, thankfully they said they'll find a planet for us,
- 9:54and they'll find a place for us to go. And even they who
- 9:58would have nothing to do with you, they seemingly they didn't do anything to
- 10:01the land on their planet, right like they had the city in the middle
- 10:03of the ocean. But it's not like Tailor's people. They're living in giant
- 10:07structures left by the ancients. They're just like made up their own little village
- 10:11and shit. Right, so like in three years they'd started building something.
- 10:15Right, surely the ancients would have had a reason to like why the water,
- 10:18why why do you have to go like, okay, whatever, doesn't
- 10:20matter. They had no reason seemingly to exist, have anything to do with
- 10:24the land. Taylor's people that are on they're not gonna bother them. They
- 10:28haven't got speed boats, they're not beaming technology to zip back to it and
- 10:31just whenever they need to. And still the ancients went, yeah, we
- 10:35don't want you on this planet anymore. Like we've heard some of the shot
- 10:39that was a long ride back in the puddle Jumper, and they told us
- 10:41that you guys are really stinky and really annoying, and we're gonna get you
- 10:45on a different That is kind of funny. Yeah, I don't really think
- 10:48it turns out that that smoke thing animal from like the first season was like
- 10:52that was Helly's pet and she's like that little kid, and let that was
- 10:58mine mother, and I don't get the way that you know, spacework,
- 11:01sun and all that sort of stuff, but you know, a sun,
- 11:05a star will exist for you know, billions of years or whatever. Yeah,
- 11:09but the idea that this this explosion, how did I and I'm sorry
- 11:15three stars that they say like roughly how long it had been? Fifteen thousand
- 11:22years? Right? Okay, that's where I was confused last week with the
- 11:24fifteen thousand. But we could have asked the ancients who were here last week.
- 11:28Yeah, I remember that. They would have been like, oh,
- 11:31that massive chronal ejection is happening next week. Yeah, it's probably the last
- 11:37one that happened. Is ancient to us? It was like what five thousand
- 11:39years ago or whatever? So you know, and in this and in this
- 11:41single episode, these dead ancients get more screen time than the live agents did
- 11:48in the two parta last week, you know what I mean? Yeah,
- 11:52and even even tailors, like many ancients died here recently. Could that be
- 11:56the visions that I'm seeing? No, nothing to do with them by Felicia
- 12:01like crazy, Yeah, it still baffles me that they just brushed over all
- 12:05those ancients that were there. Yeah, no, just like it was obviously
- 12:09it was a warning, they said, you know, and I you know,
- 12:11like when you look to the sky and you see birds flying like a
- 12:13massive birds flying in a certain direction and you're like, oh, okay,
- 12:16we're going to get a storm and it's roughly this far away and it's coming
- 12:20from this direction. Because you know, animals get some shit. You get
- 12:22us dopey humans who have come to rely on living in shelter and you know,
- 12:26going on to bomb Burrea of meteorology guys through outside of Australia and yeah,
- 12:33yeah, exactly, very important difference and finding out what the weather is
- 12:35that we you know, don't go outside and sort of feel, you know,
- 12:39a tingle on the back of our ear and go, oh, we've
- 12:41got a storm coming in thirty seven minutes or something. If you go outside,
- 12:43you can smell it. Yeah, you can see the smell rain.
- 12:48Yeah. Weirdly in my dad's old house, which was you know, kind
- 12:50of near the water but kind of not. It doesn't happen anywhere else except
- 12:54for this old brickhouse that used to live in. I could be sitting there
- 12:56watching TV and out of nowhere, I would just break it into a sweat
- 13:03and I'd be like, oh, it's going to rain, and within five
- 13:05minutes it rains. Like my in that house, my body was like super
- 13:09sensitive to humidity, maybe because it was the brick or whatever, but obviously
- 13:13because you know, as humidity rises, that's when it gets to rain.
- 13:16I must it must be. When it gets to like ninety eight percent of
- 13:18commidity, my body just starts sweating for absolutely no reason. And it happened
- 13:22every time. I just be like, it's about to rain, and like
- 13:24Dad, look at the wind and go, it's blue sky with yeah,
- 13:28rain come from the other direction every single time, but in no other house
- 13:31in my entire life. And then you go, mean girls, and while
- 13:33it's raining, you feel your tits and you're like, it's one hundred percent
- 13:37chance it's already rain. Oh yeah, obviously. Yeah, I'm just saying
- 13:41in the rain alone, I just I just did get them more wet and
- 13:43soapy and just stand outside my front yard just give them a jiggle. But
- 13:46I'm just like the idea that obviously, you know, these animals are like
- 13:50sending out a warning and that they're it's not I'm not okay that the sun
- 13:56is you know, exists for as long as a star does. But you
- 13:58know, it's not like these whales tens or hundreds of thousands of years old,
- 14:03so it's just it's not like they're maybe they had stories passed down I
- 14:07don't know, but I'm like, was there a genetic memory? I think
- 14:09stuff anything like that. But I was like, oh, I had one
- 14:13of these occurrences from the star happened in the last ten thousand years, Like
- 14:18everything would have been wiped out right now of these whales would have. So
- 14:22it's obviously it hasn't happened since the ancients were around. But I don't know.
- 14:24I just like when movies like you know, sci fi, you know,
- 14:28and like Avatar too, that was out what eighteen months ago, and
- 14:31there are you know, giant whales in there that are sentient, not that
- 14:35they speak or anything from their mouths vocally, but they are able to communicate
- 14:39with the native peoples on that planet. And even though you're going to watch
- 14:46a big sci fi film, you still have people that go and watch that
- 14:48sort of stuff. Again, a whale can talk, and I'm like,
- 14:50what are you talking? We're watching science alien giant blue monkeys where the entire
- 14:56planet is one shared like hive mind ecosystem, and you're saying that these other
- 15:01giants like, okay, you've got the nav who was sentient and walking around.
- 15:03Essentially they're just big giant blue human cat people. But the ones that
- 15:07dwell in the water, these giant whales what they also come a little mermaid
- 15:11when they're a kid. Yeah, yeah, this far and I just can
- 15:16never understand that. So I like the idea that these whales are like a
- 15:18shit that sun, it's time all the he'sought what the stories are about little
- 15:22one, Let's go over there and Sam, Sam, go and find your
- 15:26friend Rodney and tell him, you know. And then just the horde of
- 15:28them coming along. And I started it like worry that. Okay, It
- 15:31wasn't like the whale was a really big character in the submerged one from last
- 15:37year where Grace and the pressure where Carter shows up or anything, but it
- 15:39did show up, and it was like, oh, we followed this thing
- 15:41because we figured he was interested in something that something happened to be the puddle
- 15:45Jumper. So allah, the whale saved you. And then in this it's
- 15:48like the whales, Holy shit, there's a lot of whales coming and we're
- 15:52all suffering from some shit I'm like, oh, damn, the whales are
- 15:56bad, they're evil or something like. I just thought I don't necessarily think
- 15:58they were coming to it attack Atlantis, but I'm like, have they got
- 16:02ulterior motives or something like why are they doing this? And it was like,
- 16:04no, no, no, they've come to they've come to help us.
- 16:07Why didn't they extend the shields to push the whales further away, because
- 16:12then the whales would have died. Well, you can do it slowly,
- 16:15kind of nudge them. But that's the whole reason they came though, is
- 16:19because they wanted to get under the shield. That's them. Whales give me
- 16:25a headache. If it weren't for them, were killing folks. Hey,
- 16:27if it weren't for them whales, A Rodney would have been dead for the
- 16:30last twelve months, and B we wouldn't have known about the chronal mass ejection
- 16:33in time and we would have been dead as well. But just no,
- 16:37just moved them on lower and then because they don't have to be under the
- 16:41protection the whole time of the chronal mass ejection, they do, yes,
- 16:45but not before that. It didn't happen till the end, did it?
- 16:49When what's going on? I don't know why you were taking the whales.
- 16:55They weren't doing anything wrong, just saying what to stop people from dying,
- 16:59they should extend the shield temporarily until they can everybody gets well again, and
- 17:06then they can cover as many whales as they want. Yeah, but then
- 17:11that's when I think it was going through the shield, wasn't it. That
- 17:14was like the communications they could detect through the shield. That was the problem.
- 17:19So it was like an amplifier. No, it wasn't amplifer. It's
- 17:23just the shield didn't stop. Like if Yeah, but if the whales were
- 17:26further away. If you're in Atlantis and I'm standing just outside Atlantis where the
- 17:32shield's up, I can still talk to you. They can be a shield
- 17:33in between. It's like it's like, yes, but if you push the
- 17:37shield out, I'll be on the other side of the city and you can't
- 17:41hear me. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. But then when the coronal
- 17:44mass ejection goes off, no, you can come back. But they didn't
- 17:47have time. Remember Rodney said it would be it'd be a matter they'd have
- 17:49a matter of a minute. There's no way you could push the push the
- 17:52shielding out down and a little bit wide and then open it they all come
- 17:59in. This is this is why Roddie went to Atlantis, is not you
- 18:03not check out? Push the whales away? And then they didn't even use
- 18:08Atlantis anyway, they used Daedalus. Yeah it is now yeah, yeah,
- 18:12because I feel like I think probably what the script didn't hit on hard enough
- 18:17is the ancients probably smart enough to find a way to attenuate that noise so
- 18:22they weren't getting those bleeds and going deaf. Because obviously, like as far
- 18:26as we're wea they extended the shield to two thirds of the planet or whatever
- 18:30they said, which that means the whales would be not not crowding around Atlantis,
- 18:37so they'd be more spread out, it wouldn't be affecting pushing them away.
- 18:41I guess it's just short of protecting Taylor's people. Yeah, I'm so
- 18:45sorry Taylor. And I guess that is something that Roddie said, and this
- 18:48is something I guess you were talking you were talking about in the Return,
- 18:52was we only have one ZPM, not three, so we couldn't increase our
- 18:56shields the same way, like exactly the way Atlantis would have back in the
- 19:00day, and vapor No. I love the flag of Salas. I just
- 19:07love saying Flager Salas. But yeah, this is where they specify that when
- 19:14the Replicators slash Ancients took over Atlantis, one of those two groups built some
- 19:18moll zpmzpms, so Atlantis was running on three, but then Odyssey got one
- 19:26and Earth got one. It's weird that Odyssey got one. I feel like,
- 19:29of all the places they could have sent it, I feel like Odyssey
- 19:33was an odd choice to give the IDEs they just really need. But what
- 19:38is what is Odyssey going to use it for trying and kill the Aura ships?
- 19:44Yeah? But I mean as as an audience, what is that going
- 19:48to make their beam weapons more powerful and the shields powerful shields? I guess
- 19:53I just did. You'd think the Daedalus would get it so that it could
- 19:56make the trip back and forward in like four days rather than give it to
- 20:00the Dadalust. And my hugest pet peeve with this episode is that Rodney.
- 20:04It took Rodney like two hours to set up a z PM to channel it
- 20:08into the Dadalust. He had all those cables and everything. It was like
- 20:12setting up your Super Nintendo into the old RC aports, like you think there
- 20:17would just be a simple Tai based made plug and play with the z PM.
- 20:22It didn't make sense to be connecting ship. There would be. But
- 20:26maybe it's connected to the engines, not the shields, and that's what he
- 20:30specifically had to I'm just theorizing. I don't, I don't know, I
- 20:33don't. I don't have any skin in this game. But maybe it's just
- 20:37because obviously, yeah, you're right, the Dadalists would have had to have
- 20:40had the original ZPM connected up to it to get over here as well.
- 20:44It's a power source, right, so yeah, whatever your power source for
- 20:48the vehicle is powers of shields that powers it your hyperspace engine. Well,
- 20:52I mean we've we've got we've got a fuel tank for the engine, but
- 20:56then we've got the battery for the electronics. So maybe it's a for the
- 21:00turnover. Yeah. Maybe maybe maybe the ZPM was connected up to the fuel
- 21:04tank to get over here, but it wasn't connected up to the battery,
- 21:07which is what the shield runs off. Kind of thing. I don't know.
- 21:11I'm just I'm just I think the ancients are a little bit smarter than
- 21:15us. I'm just making it just a little bit, just a little bit,
- 21:17but yeah, I just found it weird that we created these spaceships and
- 21:21we had the Prometheus, and we knew about ZPMs back then, but they
- 21:25still don't have just like a nice little plug and play. Yeah, like
- 21:30you might need you you mon't need a minute, given that, given that
- 21:36SGC tablets have the little wild connected to the ancient crystal plug up crystal yeah
- 21:41and all that kind of stuff. So usb C Yeah, I just like
- 21:48the idea that you know, here we are. We only got three out
- 21:51of them, you know when they started creating more that you know, we
- 21:53had the SGA team ready to rescue O'Neil and Woolsey during the return, but
- 21:59they could tell that there was a couple of replicators working on creating like ten
- 22:03twenty zzpms, and it's like, we could go and rescue O'Neill and Woolsey
- 22:11now, but if we did that and sort of break into the joint,
- 22:14it's gonna be all hands on deck and those guys are gonna stop building those
- 22:18zzzpms. Or we could hold off, definitely lose Wolsey, maybe lose O'Neill,
- 22:22and get like an extra fifteen zzpms out of it, and they just
- 22:26go, we'll just we'll just wait a minute and just see, like,
- 22:30you know, they're sacrificing the people that are there to save so that they
- 22:33could definitely be absolutely sorted with as many a zspms as they wanted. Or
- 22:37did they not just like look at the logs and go, okay, which
- 22:41room did they go to to make those? I mean you could argue that
- 22:45the replicators brought them with them in their ship or whatever with a look though,
- 22:51yeah, but with look just to go well, obviously Atlantis would have
- 22:55to have a ZZPM room like a manufacturing room that when they run out,
- 23:00they can just make another one. You know. It turns out they're just
- 23:03rechargeable. Yeah, yeah, if you can put it into that zero point
- 23:08energy that they capture it or the energy from those universes. Yeah. The
- 23:12room the little circle thing that the rod appeared in, Yeah yeah, yeah,
- 23:17it just yeah, fills it back up. Yeah, or it was
- 23:19again it was the smoke moone stuff from episode three. You know, you
- 23:22just it just grabs a zz NPM and just recharges it. Yes, maybe
- 23:26you know in the not even the finale and they bring back and they close
- 23:30off the show and they walk into a room. They find a room they've
- 23:32never seen before, and there's just like a click to resume, you know,
- 23:36screen that's up, and it's like they're in the mad process of creating
- 23:38a hundred zs edpms that are fully powered by this other thing that they also
- 23:42don't know that they have. Or even worse, it's like like when they
- 23:45found the jumper bay and the lights come on and there's just like twenty different
- 23:49jump jumpers sitting there. Turns out there's a room where all the powers turned
- 23:53off, and it's like when you turn it on, there's just an entire
- 23:56thing. It's like it's like Snapes Apothecare of All Posts and it's just hundreds
- 24:02of stuff on a shelf, of zzpms, just ready to go. And
- 24:04they're like, ah, for sake, Yeah, I feel I feel like
- 24:11they should just give us three ZPMs and then not use that as a crutch
- 24:15as a Yeah, I understand that it's like, all right, we're too
- 24:18formidable. Then you could just go around flying around with Atlantis and can shoot
- 24:23up. But yeah, but it's also it's like they've established like in episode
- 24:27one, like the Ancients the actual, actual, actual ancients with Atlantis and
- 24:36ZPMs and all the knowledge of the ancients couldn't defeat the Wraith. Yeah,
- 24:41not in time. Yeah, So it's like us little plubs having three zzpms
- 24:47shouldn't really. Yeah, it's not like that's gonna put us over the top
- 24:52exactly. Then again, we do like to ground with ancient technology, so
- 24:56we were probably up and try and like overstep, like spoiler alert for next
- 25:00week. When you know, Merlin just had a nice cool little gadget and
- 25:03Carter goes, let's style it up to twelve. Yeah, just unnecessarily.
- 25:08Yeah, I guess it's the same kind of thing like if we had quote
- 25:11unquote spares these ZPMs, imagine the cree that we will be doing with them.
- 25:17So and the drones too, we've got to make drones. Oh yeah,
- 25:21that's a good point. Actually the reason they were running love of drones
- 25:26in the Arctic Chair. And then they don't even really talk about it in
- 25:30terms of jumpers, like the jumpers always seem to have a couple. Yeah.
- 25:33I think they saw like twenty of them or something when when we first
- 25:38see them in Rising. Yeah, and I guess we've only lost maybe two
- 25:41or three at this point, I suppose and there and you know, they've
- 25:45they've come from the Milky Way using it Atlantis as a ship, So it
- 25:48would have to be self sufficient and self sustaining Atlantis. Yeah, yeah,
- 25:53yeah, absolutely, it doesn't make They would have to be somewhere in that
- 25:56city where they can regenerate that power. Surely, surely, you mean,
- 26:00w we just plug in can Knackle degenerator after Nackle generator after Nackle degenerator.
- 26:04Yeah, and then the Dodgiest ship. It's like Carter knows that they're in
- 26:11their inefficient but she's like just doesn't have time. She's like, I really
- 26:15need to upgrade that, but I don't have time. It's one of those
- 26:18projects. Yeah. Yeah, well, I mean that's like here we are
- 26:21going out into the galaxy, and you know when they get asked, well,
- 26:23we're out there trying to find you know, zspms, just like all
- 26:26the time obviously, and it's like, yeah, but I feel like every
- 26:30episode, at least every second episode, someone brings up the fact that there
- 26:36is so much of the city they haven't investigated, they haven't explored yet,
- 26:40and they're like, oh, there's probably heaps of shit out there. We
- 26:41don't know about it. I'm like, can we not put the focus in
- 26:45like into that, you know, now that the Daedalust is there and the
- 26:48gate bridge soon, they should be like feeling there should be a million people
- 26:52in that Yeah, and there should be one team out exploring and fifty teams
- 26:57just going room by room. Yeah, and when we lose catalog at SG
- 27:03A seven or something like you were saying the other week about the lack of
- 27:07respect that SG one has always seemed to have had for anyone not in SG
- 27:11one especially only Yeah, yeah, exactly, you know, and it's like,
- 27:17well, all of the SG teams they're out there doing the same ship.
- 27:19We just don't get to see it unless they come back and they've had
- 27:22some trouble and then we send in the big guns. But generally speaking,
- 27:25they are they can handle themselves. Where at SGA, it's like, well,
- 27:29that would make sense if we had one team out there exploring, half
- 27:32of them filled with aliens from that galaxy, and then and then everyone else
- 27:37is on the base at least when those guys, you know, they haven't
- 27:38got field experience or they haven't haven't been filed ready, for months. It
- 27:41would make sense when they get killed off, there wouldn't be as much disrespect
- 27:45because they're not out there. They're getting boots on the ground and living these
- 27:49fights and living these battles and stuff. So that instead what happened Lawn's team
- 27:52gets captured by the Jani and to do that whole ground episode of us having
- 27:56to rescue them after thinking they were dead and say, well there's noploring going
- 28:00on that week. Now we had to save those years where they should they
- 28:02should have just been walking around the bloody city just checking it out. So
- 28:07they've treated Atlantis like the Moon. You know, so we went to the
- 28:08moon for well how many years, like we're running for two sixty nine they
- 28:15landed and did the last one they landed like seventy one, seventy two or
- 28:18something like. Was it hardly been on the moon? Right? I know,
- 28:19we tried to get there for a long time. We humans tried to
- 28:22get there for a long time, got up there and went, yeah,
- 28:26probably done here fifty years. It turns out it is just a bunch of
- 28:30rocks. Yeah, but like you know, set up something up there,
- 28:33you know, have a bit of fun up there. Put a golf course
- 28:34in there for christ you know something. Then like Atlantis is like they get
- 28:38They're like, wow, we finally found the mythical, myth logical lost city
- 28:44of Atlantis. It's in another planet and another galaxy. Oh my god,
- 28:47it's this millions of years old, this ancient race. It's got all this
- 28:49crazy technology. Like, well, we're here now, like, let's let's
- 28:52not go further than we can see. And I'm like in an office so
- 28:56I can see that three rooms on the and also surely like about like you
- 29:00we can walk into a Westfields and then you walk in and there's like that
- 29:03big display where it can just be like you are here, type in what
- 29:07you want to find, the room you find and go okay, you walk
- 29:11down. Is there not? Is there not a directory in Atlantis like something
- 29:15that's says it's the city. Yeah, it's like this room is Morris's bedroom,
- 29:18This room is Morgan le Fay's bedroom. This is the zz creation a
- 29:23ZZPM creation room. This is the gatorum, this is where you eat,
- 29:29this is where you like. Surely, because they couldn't just look that up,
- 29:33what's we're doing when nothing exactly? Given that she's the only one apparently
- 29:37they can read ancient on that entire base when they're out, you know,
- 29:41exploring why isn't she sitting in her office instead of playing solitaire? Just we're
- 29:45reading a directory going it's she does play solitaire, stranger just that moment where
- 29:52she starts like hearing ship and she's like, oh, yeah, ancient this
- 29:56blah blah blah, And I'm like, it seems so I keep forgetting that
- 30:00there are moments along the way that tell me that you can do this,
- 30:04But like when Daniel does it and it makes sense, you know, and
- 30:07like Carter's in a long time, whereas Wes like had a couple of brief
- 30:11moments where it's like I can do this now because I need to the show
- 30:15needs me to in whatever moment it needed me to do that, and we
- 30:18keep remembering that I can do that. It's still like it just feels like
- 30:22so convenient. Well it was the same way that like that was it reckoning
- 30:26or whatever? When like Sam and Jacob are trying to like decipher the ancient
- 30:30puzzle on Dakara using Daniel's notes, and it's like Sam can't read ancient at
- 30:37this point, but we can. Sam's had so much more dealings with ancients
- 30:44and stuff like that. That's the projects, like next to the generator,
- 30:48Yeah, is a book. Is a thesaurus and dictionary and translated book from
- 30:52English to ancient. She's like, I will, I will get to that.
- 30:55But also, who's the one who has to make all the repairs and
- 31:00keep Atlantis running? Rodney? You think he would no more? Think absolutely
- 31:07so. All I can think of is that Rodney just kind of like plugs
- 31:11in his tablet and has it all translated to English and just doesn't bother to
- 31:15actually learn ancient Rodney. Rodney knows ancient better than Daniel Jackson in the future.
- 31:21That's in the future, mate, that's when he's not too far in
- 31:23taking the time. But yeah, this point like, yeah, like you
- 31:26know, we had to come in and like translate for Rodney, which yeah,
- 31:30which is which is good because it does give I've always said, you
- 31:33know, where is the Daniel Jackson of Atlantis? You know, so the
- 31:37only one who said that. It's pretty obvious. It's pretty obvious in the
- 31:44same way that Well McKay is the Carter of Atlantis, Taylor is the Tilk
- 31:52of Atlantis until Ron and show us up and then she's she's the she's the
- 31:56Ford. She's the Ford. She is she's become the forward of Atlanta.
- 32:01Yeah, so yeah, we can't have we can't have two women. M
- 32:07we barely can write for one. Just ask Brenda Well, I mean,
- 32:10if if you think about it, right, for two of you a while.
- 32:15At the moment, in season three and season ten of Stargate right now,
- 32:20they have doubled the amount of women. We were, like, no,
- 32:25quadrupled, like for the first seven years of About the Asians, just
- 32:31those, but it's like for the first seven or eight years of Atlantis.
- 32:37Oh, sorry, SG one, you had Carter. Yeah, she's hot.
- 32:42So then so then for for Atlantis, they go, you know what,
- 32:46we're going to double the amount of women. We're gonna have Taylor and
- 32:51we are. Now they're writing for three women. Then season nine comes along
- 32:54and they go, you know what, let's add Varla to the main cart.
- 32:59Now we have two women on both shows. And there's a bunch of
- 33:01these nerds who've never touched a vagina in their lives having to write for four
- 33:06different, strong, independent, smart women and they have no in the know
- 33:09we're going to do throwing a woman villain she's the main villain. She's the
- 33:14lead villain. Hey there, you know Andrea very least. But because they're
- 33:21still men, they're going to put her on a low cut top. Oh
- 33:22yeah, hey, it's her choice, mate. She's a feminist. That's
- 33:25she's allowed to have choices. She likes getting the puppies out and about the
- 33:32views express at the end of this episode as far as like oh that you
- 33:39know, Taylor was the Tilk and now she's not. And then you got
- 33:43Roan and forward at the moment at the end of the episode where she's there
- 33:45meditating and then Ronan comes along and I just figured because he's an alien,
- 33:49he would do some cool ship like that. But she has to, don't
- 33:52you dare fall asleep again? All right, you get down. I'm like,
- 33:53oh, well, you really are two sides of Tilk. Like one
- 33:57of you is this like doesn't say a lot, worry who's just out to
- 34:00kill the enemy. And the other one of you is this like spiritual you
- 34:05know, a deep thinker and particulate speaker. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 34:10speaks very well. Tialk speaks very well, just doesn't say a lot,
- 34:13you know. So they very much talk split down the middle, and
- 34:15I probably don't respect that enough until that moment where I just I figured Ronan
- 34:20wouldn't need so okay, he's Roan, I probably should, but it would
- 34:23make it meditating. That makes sense. Tal's meditating. That makes sense if
- 34:28Ronan did it too. But yeah, it makes sense because you're an alien
- 34:30like and humans don't do like cool ship like. I don't know, and
- 34:32they're all slightly more tan than I like it. I was storing. That
- 34:38was good, and then this this classic moment of Ronan's client to make calculations
- 34:44the last we should have hit us by now, but I'm meeting no descentible
- 34:46increase, so they're doing good. Yes, it's so fine. Yeah,
- 34:58the linkas should have known to look good and dick bitches, and I'm all
- 35:05out of bitches. Shortly after you so eloquently put it, Brennan Dean Wales,
- 35:10you said, you know they're only killing people, And there was that
- 35:14moment where I am a species, hey, but wearing their ocean, their
- 35:19ocean, where visitors in their ocean. We've conquered it. You know,
- 35:23if you go if you go out swimming and bit by get bit by a
- 35:25shark, that's your so I'm going to put a mad city in there with
- 35:30shields to stop that ship. Oh so you support shark nets, do you?
- 35:34Oh? Okay, all right, No, I support while killing through
- 35:37shields. Yeah, just bumping them, just bumping them. Move away.
- 35:45You're killing us. I don't know if you know that will help. You
- 35:49don't stop killing us. They don't. They just exactly. So it's just
- 35:52a gentle, gentle push with the It was gonna though, like right,
- 35:55like there's that moment everyone's talking. All of a sudden, we're like this
- 35:59ship faints and then they shipped out and she's on the table. Like Beckett
- 36:07runs in and like with absolutely no concern in his voice at all, and
- 36:13it just brings back what Brendan's been saying about him. They they look at
- 36:17him and he's like, yeah, we're just gonna prepare for our first fatality.
- 36:21I'm like, that's the boss. Like you went to dinner with her
- 36:23the other week. You went around to check whether she was okay, and
- 36:25all of a sudden, she's in a dine in front of You're like,
- 36:28yeah, better check it out of the hole. It's gonna be the first
- 36:30first fatality of the whales because all he wants to do is get her boots,
- 36:36and he doesn't care that we're about to dine. It was not excited
- 36:38because he can't fit into them. They're too small for him. He can't
- 36:42wear them, that's true. He doesn't have to. Like, if he
- 36:46can wear them, he'll love it. Yeah, just squeeze into him.
- 36:50I think he would go full as a buffalo bill, you know, like
- 36:53wrecking buffalo, would wear it, puts on the boots, puts on We's
- 36:57red shirt, tucks his dick bag, and then just walks around going John
- 37:01John. Like Beckett would put on like boot, like the sort of knee
- 37:07high boots that lace up and like you know, the leather sort of crosses
- 37:09over one another boots when she rocked up. But he wouldn't be able to
- 37:13do it because his legs would be like bigger than weird. So he would
- 37:15have like his hairy sort of legs popping out on the But it wouldn't matter,
- 37:19like as long as he could kind of put it on, even if
- 37:22it was more of a it was a shoe, but he had to wear
- 37:24it as a high heel because he couldn't wear his foot. He actually thought
- 37:27about binding Chinese foot binding. Yeah, he's been training like a course that
- 37:31he trains himself and just yeah, he goes to bed with corsets around his
- 37:37calves to try and just in the basket. Yeah, apparently that's the thing.
- 37:42It's not great that we're all wearing headphones. A lot of the like
- 37:45streamers and stuff out that are getting like headphones skulls where it's like they're getting
- 37:50getting like indents on their heads from the headphones. Ye constantly being on Actually
- 37:57I have too from my glasses. There's actually like an indent in the back
- 38:00of my head where my glasses sort of we'll always you see that one that's
- 38:05like above you rear, like the where the what's this thing called your brain?
- 38:09Thank you? Yeah, I can't think of the word. The arm
- 38:13of the of the glasses you can see, Yeah, you can sort of
- 38:15see that. You know, it leaves a little bit of a or maybe
- 38:17get a big head and you see that. It really when we're in the
- 38:21same glasses. I was since I was like sixteen. Yeah, right,
- 38:23And you should probably get a new prescription. Man, Oh, you know,
- 38:25I've had this prescription upgraded. But I'm just saying I've been wearing glasses
- 38:30constantly since I was sixteen. Yeah, yeah, that I hadn't heard that
- 38:32because I've obviously heard of the phone one where they say, you know,
- 38:35pull up your pinky and you can see that, you know, because that's
- 38:37where we how we hold our phones. Yeah, yeah, starting to affect
- 38:42because I've got on my left hand and I never that. Yeah, I
- 38:45think I look much down. My pinky hangs just naturally. If you just
- 38:50actually, yeah, jeez, I hadn't. I hadn't noticed that. And
- 38:52if you see me now, I've actually got only ever wear one side of
- 38:57my headphones on. It's the thing in the studio. I don't know why,
- 38:59Like it's normal, I think to me to be able to hear you
- 39:01in person also hear you coming through the headphones. I always have it on
- 39:06my right ear. That feels normal, and I'm trying to make for me.
- 39:08Yeah, I'm trying to make a conscious decision to try and fifty to
- 39:14fifty it and move it to my left because I'm like, surely after doing
- 39:16radio for fifteen years and I'm wearing these headphones for three hours a day,
- 39:21I'm doing more damage to my right ear than I am to my left,
- 39:24And so also we try to start. Do I just stick with it and
- 39:29like kill my rit ear eventually, or do I try and like level it
- 39:32out and just turn it down? Well, I think it's y yeah,
- 39:35but even then I'm like to make it very important actually right now, turn
- 39:38it down a lot. I can't. It's like I like it, Okay,
- 39:42I don't like it very much? Yeah yeah, yeah. But also
- 39:44I think it comes down to the like your left brain versus your right brain
- 39:46thing. They've done tests where it's like you me having a conversation with someone
- 39:50on telephone, and it's like, if they're talking to you in an analytical,
- 39:53you know, instructional type of way, you'll have your phone on one
- 39:57side, right, But then if they change the topic and start talking about
- 39:59you something sort of emotional or something like that, you'll actually uncon subconsciously like
- 40:02switch to the other ear. That is what I saw. Yeah, I
- 40:07can't turn my neck like that's about it, And I'm batmaning at the moment.
- 40:12Like if I'm turning, I'm actually turning my whole body because my left
- 40:15side of my next stuff. So I was on the phone the other day
- 40:16and I was really doing this like between my right shoulder and my ear,
- 40:20and I'm like, this is getting tiresome. But I can't possibly do that
- 40:22because my christ are my own pain. So is the angling to receiving a
- 40:25massage or what I feel like I want to. I want someone to crack
- 40:30my back at the very least. Guys, if you've got some lotion you
- 40:31want to give me a I'll crack whatever you got, your neck, your
- 40:37back, just like it like this one. Like I said, it was
- 40:42split down the middle for me watching in two halves, and the second half
- 40:45was a very different end to what I thought it was going to be.
- 40:46But then it seemed to really quicken from hey, what's going on with these
- 40:52whales and something weird's happened and people getting the headaches to like, oh,
- 40:55the soun's about to expect we've got to get up there and shields on boom.
- 40:58End of episode, it was like and to the point where like the
- 41:00Dadalust is up there just copping all the heat from the sun and I'm like,
- 41:05I still thought that was like, it's just a b of Corona,
- 41:08but it happened so quick. I'm like, this is what they need to
- 41:12do to survive. To then fix the next thing or to fix what happens
- 41:15after whatever, and I know that was the thing. And all of a
- 41:17sudden, you know, Rodney's back and everyone's feeling okay now and the whales
- 41:21have left except for Sam. And I'm like, oh, is that that
- 41:24was what they were building up to? Like, it just seemed like there
- 41:27was not even a slow build up. I didn't get bored with the build
- 41:30up, but it was like they got there and went shit, were it?
- 41:31Like I actually tapped the time coat. I'm like, I'm at thirty
- 41:32eight minutes. Yeah, and all this shit starting to happen now, I'm
- 41:36like this is over into and a half, Like this is lucky. I
- 41:37the Dadalust was there. Yeah, yeah, because they did make a point.
- 41:40They're like, well, sure they could just have their shield on and
- 41:45survive it, but the coronal mass ejection would have basically been an extinction level
- 41:50event for the rest of the planet. So the Ethosians never could have moved
- 41:52back to the mainland. All the trees would have died, and there will
- 41:54be no oxygen in the atmosphere. Yeah, and obviously, you know that
- 41:59wasn't a problem for the for the ancients. You know, fifteen thousand years
- 42:01ago, they just extended the Shiel, which probably would have, you know,
- 42:06kept some of the mainland going. And then over the last fifteen thousand
- 42:08years we're just kind of grown back. The link has said they found spots
- 42:12of devastating that's right, that's right. I get I get too busy getting
- 42:17distracted by this, this gold from Alenka. The whales were aware this was
- 42:22happening. Well, a lot of animals, whales dolphin business are affected by
- 42:27the tiniest anomalies in the magnetosphere. It's as if their internal compasses are somehow
- 42:30where those pigeons, yeah, holming pigeons. I used to raise them before
- 42:36coming here. We used to consult solo chuches before our pigeon races. Pigeon
- 42:39races. Bridney Holy, I had actually forgotten about that bark When he said
- 42:45pigeons, I'm like, oh, now, my own backstory is that he
- 42:47used to race pigeons. Yeah, and then that's yeah. I still don't
- 42:51get help to know. This is not the last we hear the Lenka and
- 42:58his pigeons, do we hear at the term? No, I don't think
- 43:01we ever actually got any resolution on what happened to his weird bebby total,
- 43:05He's going to go back in like years and find this like festering, chunky
- 43:10mass of the water that has taken in all the and then it just be
- 43:14a floating shell, empty too, empty shells. Yeah, and a rat
- 43:17using it as an as a canoe. One's a day bed, one's a
- 43:21canoe. Yeah. And then you think about the poor realtors, because these
- 43:25guys just upped and left. They got six vacant houses. That's right.
- 43:30I didn't Rodney like have to teach his cat to that hot neighbor. Maybe
- 43:34there was the hot neighbor that he had to give his cat to that he
- 43:36thought was into him and she clearly wasn't. Oh yeah yeah, yeah,
- 43:38yeah, yeah No pets. Pet's not a good idea. But I like
- 43:43the idea that maybe they could bring pigeons. Maybe they carry pigeons. Maybe
- 43:45they that's how they keep in touch with tailor's people. Yeah, and pigeons
- 43:49out of cross tailors people are going to eat and put them in that soup,
- 43:51that's true. Yeah, they're gonna that that shitty soup that the old
- 43:54lady makes. They're like, oh, let's add some pigeon mea for that
- 43:58would the dark side of the planet not be as affected around I don't know,
- 44:07Yeah, the atmosphere radiation in the atmosphere, and yeah, I guess,
- 44:10but maybe you're right, maybe it wouldn't have been as affected. And
- 44:14maybe that's the point, like that's why they Atlanti's just probably on the light
- 44:19side of the planet with extending their shields as much as possible. And yeah,
- 44:22but it was a convenient that fifteen thousand years apart, Atlantis would actually
- 44:28be in the daylight part of the of the planet both times. That's maybe
- 44:31they flew there. Yeah, maybe. Yeah, they were never really established
- 44:35whether it just it just like moves around because it's obviously not anchored. So
- 44:38is it just moving with the tide or is it too big for the tide
- 44:40to move it? Does it have little stabilizers like like a like a boat
- 44:45that just kind of holds it in place. I feel like it's so massive
- 44:49that the small waves wouldn't affect it too much and it gets they break on
- 44:53it a lot. Or is it the inertial dampness? Yeah, yeah,
- 44:57that's what I mean. Is there little things that are kind of holding it
- 44:59in because if they find it they'd have to find the flattest place ever to
- 45:05put Atlantis. Yeah, not to be like walking downhill. Yeah, so
- 45:09I guess the water probably levels amount is it also a matter of convenience?
- 45:15The idea that like, you know, this sun spot and when we saw
- 45:17it's like, oh my god, it's all you know, and like you
- 45:20just saw this mass just sort of shrink down and just explode out, you
- 45:23know, like when when you see those shots online, they remind you at
- 45:28the size of space and everything in it, and like how tiny, tiny
- 45:31the Earth is compared to the Sun when we sit like it might again might
- 45:36be a case of the CGI letting down the story or whatever. Like we
- 45:37didn't see the Sun as a whole, but we saw enough of the curvature
- 45:40to we're like, we're seeing like a quarter of that Sun. That mass
- 45:45that shrunk down then exploded out as a as a as a blast, to
- 45:49lack of a better word, surely would have been so much bigger that it
- 45:54would have covered like tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of colon either side,
- 46:00yeah, either side of the planet. That the idea that it was
- 46:05only enough. It got down to a point where the Deadalis shields were enough
- 46:10or the Deadalist itself and surrounding shield it's not that big. Really, we're
- 46:15enough to like deflect it elsewhere. I'm like, you had to be in
- 46:17the perfect position. And I think the CGI did let it down in that
- 46:23it was like a pinpoint. Yeah, and we've said that, we've said
- 46:28that before, that the CGI doesn't always necessarily reflect what the riding did.
- 46:32But I think the writing also hid behind that one line where Rodney was like,
- 46:36I don't think you understand how close we're going to get. And that's
- 46:39how this tiny little ship is going to deflect it with how close it's going
- 46:43to be to the sun. But I think what you're all forgetting is Rodney's
- 46:46amazing little drawing that he did on his tablet. Forget any CGI. That
- 46:52is all I needed. That is all I needed to buy everything. He
- 46:57was saying. He's like, how do I dumb it down enough for an
- 47:00idiot draw in military cards? I'm going to give you a play school level
- 47:07like a drawing. Sesame Street would be like, no, that's too rudimentary.
- 47:10Why didn't they just fly away to a different planet? Umm? Because
- 47:19they don't know? How is that the reason I don't want to say anything
- 47:25because it's a potential spoiler for Mitchell. I appreciate that. Surely Sheppard to
- 47:30be like, this is easy flying a puddle jumper. Well, maybe we'll
- 47:34talk about it in undisclosed amount of episodes in need. How much would he
- 47:39love to do that? You know, like you've got you get to pilot
- 47:43like a little a little water, you know, playing you know, you
- 47:46know, flying over a little bit of rescue something with an open canopy.
- 47:49Then you get to fly yet you get to fly Air Force one or something.
- 47:52You get to pilot as on water, a battleship cruiser or something,
- 47:57and you know, then you get to old mate and he's piloting the dead
- 47:59List and like, okay, that's the biggest thing that anyone in human history
- 48:02has ever piled it. And then John Shepherd gets to fly a New York
- 48:07sized city through space. He'd be like, I'm putting the qu in the
- 48:10rack. No one will ever top, Like, no one will ever top
- 48:13this. It's not as big as New York. Well yeah, but sorry,
- 48:15yeah the ship that we've spoken about it before, it's about as big
- 48:19as the Golden Gate Bridge. Something like yeah, maybe we'll talk about it
- 48:22in an undisclosed number of episodes, and some only go on what you guys
- 48:25have said before about being Manhattan sized many rooms, right, yeah, and
- 48:32all within the size of the gold Gate. I'll take it. That's one
- 48:36for this. But there's there's a bunch of idiots who started watching Star Trek
- 48:39Voyage. Shut up. I didn't mean it like that. But yet,
- 48:44in a very early episode, they say, oh, look, we've only
- 48:47got fourteen torpedoes left and janeways because they get stranded on the other side of
- 48:51the nuclear galaxy. It's gonna take them seventy years to get home. And
- 48:54they go, we've got no way to replace these once they're gone. But
- 48:58then over the series they fire about four thousand torpedoes. Yeah, obviously they
- 49:01figure out a way to make applicators. Yeah, they got ways to make
- 49:05them, they just hadn't made any at that point. But people seem to
- 49:07think that means, oh, they were only ever going to have fourteen torpedoes
- 49:10for the entire run of the series, which is stupid. Yeah, you
- 49:14write a number and people stick to that. Yeah, but what I was
- 49:16getting it could have been fun. I mean, you think of you know,
- 49:20Pates of the Caribbean. Jack Sparrow had one bullet for one guy,
- 49:23and he faced all those pirates. He could have shot at but he saved
- 49:25it for Jeffrey Rush or Deadpool. He had twelve bullets, but he's saving
- 49:29one for Francis. That's a great scene, you get it. That's one
- 49:31for the Parts of the Caribbean, Mitchell. What I don't around with that
- 49:35bullshit. That's the first Caribbean is I never made it through one of those
- 49:39films, the first one is it is so good, no terrible. I
- 49:45will not stand no, I'll tell you you all right it Disney movie.
- 49:51I've been on the Pirates Caban, I've been on the Pirates of Caribbean,
- 49:52ride in Disneyland and the right out of my mind Boring Boring his slow movie
- 50:00three while these animatronics like Hallo more entertaining than the film. No, I
- 50:05will put it on a record. I will sit down with YouTube mothers and
- 50:08watch all three. I don't want extended Lord of the Rings films before I
- 50:15will sit down and watch one Parts of the Caribbean. And I know how
- 50:17much you hate Lord of the Ring exactly. I mean, I would take
- 50:21watching the eleven Academy Awards. Yeah, that's just one film film four people.
- 50:27What I was thousands? No, I mean the Academy, the people
- 50:30in the Academy that gave them thousands. Yes, vote for it. Now,
- 50:32you know what you ask the question I'm gonna give you. What I
- 50:35was getting to about eight hours ago was we'll get to it in an undisclosed
- 50:39amount of episodes. The thing we're talking about, but also what we'll get
- 50:43to in an undisclosed amount of episodes is I feel like, what is a
- 50:45little secret set up in this episode that I think Brendan will know what I'm
- 50:50getting at when I forget who says it, but they say, when's the
- 50:53last time you took a day off? Yes? I wrote that exactly that.
- 50:59Yeah, sorry, three Star, I missed that. It was a
- 51:01psychologist, right, she was asking Elizabeth about Taylor's issues. I'm like,
- 51:07you can't ask doctor about someone else, even if you are you know whatever,
- 51:12you can have a certificate. Yeah, But she said, when's the
- 51:15last day you had off? Literally? I had six weeks off last week.
- 51:20Last week I saw she was depressed because she was having too many days
- 51:22off. She had six weeks off, eating takeout in her sweats. Yeah,
- 51:27just live in our weekend lives, as we pointed out, our dream
- 51:30lives anything herself. Now, Maddie, there's one more grab that I've got
- 51:37here, and it was the thing that I came in. I wish I
- 51:38would have I would have gotten that, And I don't know. I'm only
- 51:40going by what it looks like, what you've named play it. I'll play
- 51:45it, go for it, but you play it. What was your point
- 51:47about her not having days off? In an undisclosed amount of episodes, we
- 51:53will discuss the fact that Heiitemeyer said, when was your last day off?
- 52:00Hinting at something we will discuss in an undisclosed amount of Yeah, she had
- 52:04six weeks off. Imagine herself Netflix style, fair enough with a brighter vibratorm.
- 52:12Most of them are gone now. They began dispressing almost immediately, not
- 52:16so much as a thank you, no thank you. But that was all
- 52:23right now. Obviously she's still suffering from hearing loss by narcissism because she was
- 52:34understanding ancient and the weird sort of thing which I haven't mentioned. I should
- 52:37do before we wrap up the way that there's the voices and stuff. But
- 52:40because we were dealing with whales. I honestly thought she for a second,
- 52:45like, is she trying to speak whale in finding the Emo? This is
- 52:51her No thank you. I'd forgotten temporarily about the hearing loss or whatever else
- 52:59was going hang on, no thank you, just for a fleeting moment.
- 53:07When Martin Guiro is on the writing stuff, you never know that's true.
- 53:12He had Ghostbusters the other day. Actually, I really do want to see
- 53:15now where we walks out into the terrace and just goes no thank you.
- 53:21Or Ronnie could have wrapped the episode up like that, thank you, sir.
- 53:24That Giro line last week in Atlantis about close my eyes and think of
- 53:30the state puffed marshmallow man. Yeah, it still doesn't make any sense,
- 53:35and the English one isn't better. I just think of England. I've heard
- 53:37that more closureized and think of England. But I think that might even be
- 53:40like a Monty Python line or something. Yeah, that's true, But wouldn't
- 53:45Jack, wouldn't you just write I just like to think of cake or a
- 53:47fishing or you know, anything that's Jack related would have been a bit better.
- 53:52Well, I mean, Jack and brad Wright came up with the think
- 53:57of England. That was that was what they came up with. Yeah,
- 54:00I know that, but I'm just saying even that's not great. Yeah it's
- 54:04fine. I think it's I'm gurgling, Holly al right. Sorry, Well,
- 54:12close your eyes and think of England as a song by Dell Amitri,
- 54:15which I didn't know whoever that is. Let me move from twenty twenty one.
- 54:20That doesn't kill dude, We did last week, Brandon. You google
- 54:22it too and see what opposite. Yeah, it's not. I got macaroons.
- 54:29The Guns of novarone nineteen sixty one. Let us off for once.
- 54:35Go on, be a pal, be a father to your man. Climb
- 54:37down off that cross of yours. Close your eyes, think of England and
- 54:40pull the trigger. That classic movie The Guns of Novarowon. Yeah, that's
- 54:45good. We can fullish with that quickly, though, because one thing,
- 54:51one of the first things that really stood out for me because it happened early,
- 54:53but that I really liked about this was when Taylor had first had the
- 54:58vision and she did know what it was at the time, like she was
- 55:00actually asking you questions, Oh, how are you? How can I help
- 55:02you? You know, this weird figure walking down the hallway and just the
- 55:07I almost describing it as like some kind of weird like bubbling sound effect that
- 55:12you might hear that would match something weird as a screen saver, you might
- 55:15say that, and I really like, looks what I hate when we have
- 55:20an alien in a show. It's like, give them a dreep boys and
- 55:22they talking like this because they're different than us, and it's like, really
- 55:27like that's the like, that's the limit as to how an alien consent.
- 55:30It's either they or unless you're Star Wars and they speak with a stereotypical Asian
- 55:34accent other than speaking yeah yeah right, it's like a deep voice and it's
- 55:40in Gibberish. But this was like a very very unique sound and I actually
- 55:45thought, that's one of the coolest things I think I've seen in this show
- 55:47was this is how they're speaking freaky. Yeah. I'm pretty sure it was
- 55:52very late at night, and that scene where Taylor comes out and that woman's
- 55:57walking towards her, just screeching and just very kind of freakily fast, like
- 56:04the rings like something kind of yeah, like what the yeah, absolutely they
- 56:07should have had like just close your eyes and think of oh, I'd cut
- 56:12it off. That was a more girls quite. Just close your eyes and
- 56:15think of England, Honey. Get into the geek, get into Gate,
- 56:22Get into the Gate Stargate podcast. Get into it now before it's too late.
