- 2:29Come on, come on, it's a you know, it's an you
- 2:31bought it as an IP guy. Something. An experiment goes wrong, leaving
- 2:35Lieutenant Colonel Samantha Carter trapped in a parallel reality where martial law has been enforced
- 2:39and Earth is under attack from the alright, also starring Ben Browder, Christopher
- 2:44Judge, and Michael Shanks. Well, I mean, Shanks's not in it,
- 2:46and when have they ever put oh my god, skip Judge has one
- 2:50thing I skipped where they said Lieutenant Colonel Samanth Carter Amanda Tapping. I'm I'm
- 2:54not reading names anymore, but I didn't look ahead. But also it was
- 2:58gonna be like, also just laundry' is a dickhead president, you know or
- 3:01something like that could have just lauckhead. Yeah, well that's true. I
- 3:06mean here we were talking true in any Universe the other week. It's like,
- 3:07God, damn this guy. What a great leader, what a fantastic
- 3:10leader? Not where does he rank in our favorite leaders of the base And
- 3:14here we go it's like, oh, by the way he prayers it it.
- 3:15Yeah, Yeah, he's he's like a Kinsey level president in this universe.
- 3:21Yeah. So you mentioned that it was a man a Tappings two hundredth
- 3:24This is General Hammond's last episode of this series. Yeah, final final episode
- 3:31of any Stargate. He actually like passed away about eighteen months after this episode
- 3:38aired in real life? How many eighteen months? Jesus, yeah this this
- 3:43this aired like January of seven. He passed away in June eighth. Damn
- 3:47yeah, oh man, not to bring it down. I mean, yeah,
- 3:52we've only got a handful of episodes left. But still it's like,
- 3:54oh, this is last one and ah, yeah that sucks. I'm just
- 3:58seeing them. I'm glad they got him back for this, and he's given
- 4:00that he only lasted another eighteen months. I'm glad they like they got Yeah,
- 4:02this is so good. It was so good watching him as the old
- 4:06school general hand and that's a great thing. I was guessing taken advice from
- 4:10Sam. Yeah yeah, whereas Laundry didn't again Yeah here I was saying the
- 4:15other week with the SGA's return Part one and two, that you know,
- 4:18I said, look, ifil I thought that was a good out for if
- 4:20Onill never showed up again, that was a good farewell to him, even
- 4:23though it wasn't his show. Whereas here donas Davis showing up as a different
- 4:29Hammond. So it's like his final showing in Stargate or the series is as
- 4:36an alternate Hammond. Oh that sucks, but he was still like I felt
- 4:41like every even when he was arguing with Carter about the way things are and
- 4:44you just don't understand that's what our Hammond would do. Hey, we've got
- 4:47people win into ants too, you don't necessarily have all the information. But
- 4:50also by the end of it was like, hang on, we promised her
- 4:54that we would let her go. Come on, Like he was he was
- 4:56as close to feel like an alternate. No, he was the only one
- 4:59that didn't feel like an alternate whatever than anybody else that featured this show that
- 5:03carries over from the other one. So that was good for him and great,
- 5:06just great to see hear his voice again. And it felt like there
- 5:10hadn't been that much time passed since the last time we saw him, so
- 5:14he had left it. It was last season. It was during the Fourth
- 5:17Horseman. Was like, but that was so brief, like he barely got
- 5:20a line in that they kind of just and it's funny they kind of that
- 5:25when he appeared in The Fourth Horseman that was supposed to be like they were
- 5:29going to get the real life head of the Air Force in or whatever to
- 5:31do that he became unavailable in this episode. I don't know if he was
- 5:38originally planned on being there because originally they were going to get President Hayes back
- 5:43in like our you know, and he was going to be president, so
- 5:46I would imagine Landry was going to just be a General Landry again, so
- 5:51there would have been nowhere for Hammond to be. So I kind of it's
- 5:56almost kind of the yeah, it's like a kis meant to be kind of
- 5:58thing. That president and that Hayes act was unavailable, so they decided to
- 6:01move Landry up to be a dark president, which meant they could get Hammond
- 6:05back in, and he just obviously just went, yeah, of course,
- 6:08I'll come and play with you guys. I thought it was perfect. Yeah.
- 6:13What I what I didn't like is I feel like we spent the first
- 6:16half of the episode with him and Lorne and then they both just kind of
- 6:20disappear and aren't in the second half of the episode at all. They just
- 6:23like Carda just has that sort of little moment where she puts Hammond in her
- 6:26place and walks off and that's the last time we see him. It's a
- 6:30good moment. It's a great scene, and Cardi gives a great little speech
- 6:31with some social commentary, but From then on, it's kind of just her
- 6:34versus Landry, I feel like, and then Rodney's introduced and it's all just
- 6:39that sort of stuff. And Lieutenant Cam as I like to call him,
- 6:44that we had seen with cam Mitchell doing his best Lieutenant Dan. Yeah,
- 6:47yeah, apparently, yeah, apparently it's more inspired by Yeah, born on
- 6:50the fourth of July, but I just went that's Lieutenant Dan. Yeah.
- 6:54Yeah, I think Lieutenant Dan was based on the the Tom Hanks character as
- 6:59well. Yeah, plately Tom Cruise sorry, oh yeah. Uh. It
- 7:08was finally, like, just on the president thing. When they first mentioned
- 7:11him, They're like, I need to talk to the president. He's busy,
- 7:13No, he's going to want to hear this, and then they kept
- 7:15talking, We're going to see the president, going to see the president.
- 7:16I'm like, I don't remember O'Neill being president at any point, but is
- 7:21that where we're going? Like that would have been very I mean, you
- 7:24couldn't have I don't think you could have a dark president Jack O'Neill. It
- 7:28would have just been different on all fronts. I'm glad you bought that up.
- 7:31Listen to this, Hey, maybe I could talk to Daniel is he
- 7:34here? Doctor Jackson was captured by the forces of you ri I several weeks
- 7:41ago. Okay, what about Colonel Mitchell, Cameron Mitchell and three or two
- 7:47points went down over in Arcadet, that's right? Is he here? I
- 7:51have no idea where he is. The last I heard he quit the military
- 7:56till well till going back to the you several years ago. And if you're
- 8:01talking about Valamal Duran, I hate to break it to you, but she
- 8:03is currently occupying a salary of fifty one. You can't take a stab at
- 8:07anyone else, anyone, anyone else, she would ask, at least let
- 8:11me see the survellance. No, she's run out of names now. Apologies
- 8:16to to three star. But I glanced away for the briefest of seconds when
- 8:20she looked at that photo, and she's like, hey, I'm wearing a
- 8:22wedding ring. Oh yeah, Now who is she in the photo with with
- 8:26him? It was with O'Neill, the photo with Lawn. Oh is that
- 8:31why? He's like, oh no, no, no, no, no,
- 8:31no. See because I looked away, she's like I want to go,
- 8:33oh, yeah, you were married and and and she's like with and
- 8:37I thought the divorce, Yeah, they did. She was made to Macay,
- 8:41That's what I was thinking they did. Maybe it was I got Yeah,
- 8:46after the divorce those two had, like Lawn and Carter had had a
- 8:50little something or other after after she divorced me. But yeah, I just
- 8:56found it weird that Carter runs through that entire list, including Varla. Yeah,
- 9:03not even who doesn't Yeah like tilk who because they didn't have they didn't
- 9:07know about Atlantis. Yeah, so we'll we'll get to that a little bit
- 9:11later. But it's the dover because I want to just talk about the O'Neil
- 9:15thing. The divergence point was Lost City. So the basically the whole difference
- 9:20between this universe and our universe is Lost City happened exactly the same, but
- 9:26then this universe made the Stargate program public. But everything else still had to
- 9:31happen. Varla had to come because they were fighting the Auri as well,
- 9:35So Varla and Daniel still had to come and go and do the whole are
- 9:39I thing and let the oro I know that we're hit. So all it
- 9:41was very weird, And yeah, the commentary gets into that a little bit,
- 9:43or even to get to the point where he was taken by the are
- 9:46several weeks ago and it's like, oh yeah, shit, that's so it's
- 9:50like up until that moment, whereas so much other stuff. Yeah, yeah,
- 9:52but I just I just found it weird that like Carter ran off that
- 9:56entire list and not one said General O'Neill. Very strange, like they couldn't
- 10:03even write a line to say, well, know, he's he was killed,
- 10:07he was killed in action, you know, or he could have been
- 10:11killed yeah, you know, something like that, or he's still in the
- 10:15Antarctica in frozen. Yeah, yeah, perfect fucking that would have been spot
- 10:20on, bang done color. Yeah. I just found it weird that,
- 10:24Yeah, she she didn't ask for him. They did that. They do
- 10:28that a lot, remember Ripple Effect. They didn't have Jack in it at
- 10:31all on one team and yeah, Ben Browner, Yeah, but I understand
- 10:35that with you know, Richard Dennison physically not being available, but it's like,
- 10:39at least give us a line in this episode as to why she didn't
- 10:43ask for him given that, and I forgot to mention, it feel like
- 10:45they're trying to forget O'Neill for like the part time users, so that they
- 10:48didn't yeah, part time viewers. So they didn't get confused, which is
- 10:52weird given that he just did a two stint two episodes on Atlantis. But
- 10:56yeah, I forgot to mention it two weeks ago. In Line in the
- 10:58Sand, there's that whole part where when Carter's dying, she's, oh,
- 11:03I've got into my personal database and I've got letters to Daniel, letters to
- 11:09my brother, letters to other people, and then she goes the password is
- 11:15fishing. Like there's all that heavy handed stuff in Line in the Sand,
- 11:20but in here she did program. But in here she didn't even ask for
- 11:26a Neil. And I just found that really like sloppy fucking you. Now
- 11:30that you hit it out of the park, just them are going, he's
- 11:31still he's still frozen down in Antarctica. We can't revive him. Yeah,
- 11:35that would have been fucking perfect. Yeah, because the program went public,
- 11:41so you know, the whole thing with with Weir and all that kind of
- 11:43stuff, you know didn't happen, and you know this that that stuff happened
- 11:48differently, maybe because maybe Landry was the general of of SGC and then because
- 11:54it was martial law, he's number one. But I mean Hammond is still
- 11:58there, so you could almost say, like thet Hammond left at the end
- 12:03of Lost City and then Jack became the general, so it's like, yeah,
- 12:07what happened to that? So him being frozen in Antacty would have been
- 12:09just a perfect bow and you're like great. And then Hammond stayed in command,
- 12:13and then Landry never got command of the SGC and somehow got promoted to
- 12:18president instead when Marshal Law and stuff came in. I think maybe it was
- 12:22only in my head where I was thinking Laundry was the Stargate SGC general,
- 12:28and then he decided maybe once Martial Law got taken over, in a way
- 12:33it was like, well, you're in charge of the Stargate program, which
- 12:37is like the most important, so let's make you the leader. Yeah.
- 12:39I guess maybe in the way that like after O'Neill left the like the SGC,
- 12:48he became like the general in charge of Stargate operations in general, including
- 12:52in Lantis and all that kind of stuff. In this universe they need the
- 12:56found Atlantis so there's not lunch. But yeah, maybe it would have maybe
- 13:01he just jumped over Hammond because it would be weird. I think you have
- 13:03for Hammond to then leave for Landry to come in and then Landry to get
- 13:07promoted so quickly and then bring Hammond back in would be weird. But yeah,
- 13:13I just you know, given that this episode and the last one is
- 13:16you could almost do it as a two parter almost, you know what I
- 13:18mean, Like it's all it's two episodes based around Carter fucking around with Arthur's
- 13:24Mantle. Or you said there that you would often skip these two episodes,
- 13:28right and just go straight from the Quest into the Shroud the Shrouded. Yeah,
- 13:33yeah, well like Arthur's Mantle, that's the one where the Carter and
- 13:39Ben Browder faces. It was almost identical the opening of those two episodes.
- 13:46Yeah, that's that's why I called it Arthur's Mantle two point h Yeah,
- 13:48because he went up to the to the observation deck. Yeah, and if
- 13:52he'd just stayed there, I mean I did like the one where you like
- 13:54he bumped into the force field and that kind of stuff. In the Auto
- 13:58commentary they mentioned that for me in it they were considering recreating that that thing
- 14:03from Upgrades where Jack runs into the force field at super speeding and with the
- 14:07clean rap and it kind of just storts his face. They were going to
- 14:09do that and have Browder like bang into that, but they realized they would
- 14:13have had to cut into that and then cut away and you would have lost
- 14:16the physicality of it. So they just decided not to and I think it'll
- 14:18still worked. It was a fun moment. He's very physical. Yeah.
- 14:22And then you know Sam not putting the little sign up I thought was a
- 14:24great yeah, sorry, very professional. She wouldn't have that constantly do not
- 14:31enter. Yeah, yeah, just like open a close sign for her on
- 14:35air light exactly, studio door. It was. It was a lot going
- 14:39on though, to be like, oh, okay, so this is kind
- 14:41of almost a what do they call the Cloverfield Lane movie. It was like
- 14:46a spiritual sequel or whatever it was, or a spiritual this is like a
- 14:50spiritual cousin to like side yeah McKay and missus Miller. In that alternate Carter
- 14:56was doing that same experiment our universe, Rodney was doing to pull energy out
- 15:01of a bunch of different universes to you know, recharges EPM and sucked through
- 15:07raw rod came through to say, hey, you fucking up our planet,
- 15:11Whereas in this one, it's like our Carter was the one that got sucked
- 15:13through into that universe and ended up killing her counterpart as it happened. The
- 15:18main difference is they were just trying to suck all of the energy out of
- 15:20that one universe in in mister and Missus Miller, where is this trying to?
- 15:26Oh, that's right, lots of different that's right. I did like
- 15:28the touch where it's like they mentioned that like Sam, the only reason sam
- 15:33our Sam survived is because she was within a force field and that's how rod
- 15:37arrived to us using the personal shield. Yeah, and that was how he
- 15:41survived the trip into our universe over in a Ya. So when she explains
- 15:45that to Rodney in this universe, he's like, oh, okay, that
- 15:48that's pretty amazing. Yeah. I feel like they like kind of glossed over
- 15:54the death thing because it started like, oh, you're here, but where's
- 15:56ours? Like, yeah, I don't know, like I came in here,
- 15:58Oh she was doing this, and we thought there was like this fire,
- 16:02but then we you know, or there should have been, but then
- 16:03we opened up and you were just sort of standing there and you get dressed
- 16:06and everything. Yeah, and it's like, oh, okay, well I
- 16:07wonder, oh would she have been transported like just straight to yours. It's
- 16:12not how it works. It's like, oh, she could like Slider.
- 16:15She's just out there in an ultimate universe, out there somewhere, and who
- 16:18knows if I'll ever find her. Maybe she'll have to find her own way
- 16:21back. I'll go back to my world, and then maybe card will be
- 16:22back in like fifteen years. When she figures out how to do it,
- 16:25oh well, and then it was like not spoken about for fifteen minutes.
- 16:29Then she goes to meet Rodney, and well, post meeting Rodney because for
- 16:33the first scene, she pretended to be that Karter and the next time she
- 16:36comes back, she's like, look, I'm actually not her. Nah,
- 16:38you have to be looked like her. She's dead. That was a weird
- 16:42scene. Oh wrong, lesbian And if she's dead, oh fuck, that's
- 16:47so I'm not thinking, oh you're gay? No, what was it?
- 16:52No? I just wasn't into having sex with you for like a multitude of
- 16:56reason. That's classic Rodney in any universe. It's like, oh, if
- 16:57you don't want to have sex with me, you must be a lesbian.
- 17:00Yeah, because I'm because I'm Robey McKay freak McKay. Yeah, there's no
- 17:06way, not everybody's time. The smartest smartest man in pegas to send me
- 17:10accoding to Metti across multiple universes. He's got extra painess and he's Brian.
- 17:15Yeah, extra that wrong. Apparently the episode Uh started out as a very
- 17:22different concept, though it's interesting how the story came together. Actually, I
- 17:23originally just pitched this idea. The original idea that I went pitched Rob was
- 17:27that Carter was transferred to another reality kills herself accidentally, and but but it
- 17:33doesn't realize immediately because the reality is so close to our own. And then
- 17:37uh, And then it takes a few acts for her to or a couple
- 17:40acts for her to realize that she's in the wrong, wrong reality, at
- 17:42which point they say, well, you're not going anywhere. That then but
- 17:45and that, and then that turned into but Rob correctly pointed out that why
- 17:48do an alternate reality story if the reality is so similar to our own that
- 17:52you know that there's fun of doing an our alternate reality stories? Really to
- 17:56see differences right off the bat. Imagine walking around and it was the same
- 18:00for a while, and then all of a sudden, it's like, oh,
- 18:03the President's come to see you. She's like, oh great, and
- 18:06then Andrew walks and she's like, all right, what, like what joke
- 18:08is this? Like that would have just been a bit of a bit of
- 18:11a trip. But then yeah, then they have to kep up. Yeah,
- 18:14like really like anyone he could have been anyone, mister angry. Really,
- 18:19I mean, I know the US is currently going through it. It's
- 18:22like, so Biden or like, those are your only two options? Again
- 18:25again again in eighty both these are the only two humans of age. I'm
- 18:32sure there's some smart enough kids that could probably do it, but like over
- 18:34eighteen or twenty one, the like these Wow, okay, coincidence. Yeah,
- 18:41if only we'd gone with old mate. Who is the other guy that
- 18:45didn't make a Bernie? Oh yeah, said he was too Larry David.
- 18:48Yeah, Larry David, well, Curbs, he probably could. He could
- 18:52do that as a gag. Larry David just pretend he's Bernie, sent us
- 18:55down and run for president again. I'm surprised he hasn't gone on SNL one
- 18:57done he did? Yeah, excellent, And the jacket where they're being cold
- 19:02or something. J Carrey was doing Biden. That's right, I did see
- 19:07I don't think one had mate, dude Trump shooting McGee shoot a mcgalvin shooter.
- 19:18There's some real meta casting for that, Harry Harry Happy Gilmore too that
- 19:22they're making. And they cast Alec Baldwin and shoot him again. But they
- 19:26should maybe shoul. They should do like a hockey game against each other,
- 19:30yes, fighting each other. Yeah, just something put it on not golf.
- 19:33Yeah, I already kicked your ass at golf. And it turns out
- 19:38Shoot is a magnificent figure skater, just skates rings he's but he can't skate
- 19:47like it's just yeah, because that was always the go, right, He
- 19:48couldn't skate for me? Can skate, yeah, he says, first guy
- 19:52to ever take a skate off and try to stab somebody. So that guy
- 19:56from Mighty Duck, the speed skater doesn't know how to stop. Yeah,
- 20:00just like shit, that's what That's what they need, that move. They
- 20:03need a Melio Westevez to come in and teach him how to skate. Yes,
- 20:06fantastic. Yeah, I actually have zero memory of this episode apart from
- 20:11the dress. You are a simple single creature. I need a sound effect.
- 20:18I wish, yeah, yeah, I wish. I mean, well,
- 20:22I see you. I did this in season three of this episode.
- 20:23I set you a picture yesterday of like Amanda tapping. It showed up on
- 20:29freaking a Facebook page, Amanda tapping in like a hot pink cowgirl outfit,
- 20:34crickets. Not a single one of you fucking reacted to it. Oh sorry,
- 20:40Karter in a in a generic dress at a cocktail part, and you're
- 20:44like, it was on my eighty six screen inch screen, side boob,
- 20:53we are but simple man, eighty six inch screen with your eight six of
- 20:57an inch dick, just hard as a rock six yeahsion, we were concenter.
- 21:06That seems right. I talked about it in Line in the Sand,
- 21:11where I wasn't like a huge fan of like Carter fucking like Cutter fucking with
- 21:15the Arthur's mental technology to like who she fucking well Rodney obviously, and maybe
- 21:23a lesbian who knows like taking the whole town out of out of phase,
- 21:32taking the whole planet out of phase. There's just the town one didn't work
- 21:36last week? Now are you doing the planet? Yeah, it's just the
- 21:40line the power across the congent of the United States being funneled to Antarctica.
- 21:47Yeah, yeah, they got a couple of we diverted it to the SGC.
- 21:52Yeah, because that's how wiring works. You can just flip the switch
- 21:56because there's obviously just a wire running from the the United States to Antarctica to
- 22:02power the chair. Landry's president here. Man, They're electrics were social high
- 22:07speed fiber optics. Absolutely. I just taking a whole planet out of phase
- 22:12is just stupid. Aligned Like it was dumber than flying the cargo ship through
- 22:18the planet. Oh the thousands, I loved flying the cargo ship through the
- 22:22planet. That was fantastic. With the asteroid connected. Yeah, anything about
- 22:26it? Now? That was Merlin's device, right, He created a device
- 22:33that can kill ascended ancients, the most powerful weapon in the entire known universe,
- 22:38the sun graal. He has to hide that from other extended ancients.
- 22:45He goes, all I need is a keyboard that creates a field about the
- 22:48size of the room for me to hide my research cardigoes. Let's fucking put
- 22:56some twenty two's on it and the eight and you know what, we're getting
- 23:00an entire fucking planet disappear. Don't you think that if the power that we
- 23:07thought we needed states, Yeah, so if we can't we can't create ZPM
- 23:15level power definitely too. We can't. We can't create ZPM level power to
- 23:18make a five second connection to uh the Atlantis like Atlantis. But we've got
- 23:26enough power just from the United States power grid to take our entire planet out
- 23:33of phase using ancient technology. Don't you think if that was necessary, Merlin
- 23:38would have thought of it. Merlin could have just hid an entire planet to
- 23:42do his research to create the sangraal, to hide it from fucking omnipotent beings
- 23:48who can call down lightning strikes. You know what I mean, that's what
- 23:52And I just find it seems like overkill. It find it's strange that that
- 23:57doing that, or I can't beat it? Yes, why not yet the
- 24:04ancient slash or I gave that in wristband form to the so damn Yeah,
- 24:10exactly what the whole cloaking thing of these two series that I don't like?
- 24:15Yeah, you got home and running. He's in the control ship. He
- 24:19saw a planet disappear and went, job's done. Boys, let's go.
- 24:22Yeah, didn't double check. Now it must be gone. We can't sense
- 24:26like the gravity forces are still there now they're hidden. Gravity forces are differently
- 24:33what I would have liked is when they said all the Ari ships are,
- 24:37you know, separating and moving around the planet. I'm like, that's good.
- 24:38Like they're obviously like trying to destroy air Force air Force one Area fifty
- 24:44one, but I would have liked if they're going to I'm sure one of
- 24:48their ships could have destroyed Area fifty one on its own. Otherwise, just
- 24:52send the ships around and all aim at the planet and destroy the planet right
- 24:56with they're big beams. I would have loved for like them to have shot
- 25:00they and they make the planet disappear and those but they just end up like
- 25:03all killing each others projects. Yeah, that would have been cool and that
- 25:07could have been the big finale for the episode. But that, like the
- 25:10a I thing almost kind of like happened halfway through the episode, and the
- 25:12rest of the episode was just arguing with with mister angry. Yeah, and
- 25:18like you've been there for a day, mate, you can't get involved in
- 25:21politics? Yeah she has on TV. She's like, you know what's wrong
- 25:23with this planet and the country. So well, hey, I know we
- 25:26like to take America and try to americanize like other planets in your universe.
- 25:32But like also kind of shut up a little bit, like listen to Hammond
- 25:36where he's like, you don't understand how bad things got know it was crazy,
- 25:41It actually was crazy. It's amazing what Lansry did and like, yeah,
- 25:44I get it, you don't like his eyebrows, Yeah, but went
- 25:47over it. That would be a massive way that this show could chow.
- 25:48They bring it back on Amazon, And what's one way to really blow things
- 25:53open? Have the sg s or that the Stargate program, the knowledge of
- 25:57aliens be a public but it's almost it's almost too limitless that how that would
- 26:06change the storytelling? Like you couldn't just have that happen and like after three
- 26:08or four episodes, just go back to Exploration of the week, yeah,
- 26:12and pretend like the rest of the planet isn't because I mean that absolutely Why
- 26:17wouldn't every other planet be like you've got alien tech? Sorry what you've got
- 26:21that shit? And like everyone running around the sky's falling like twenty joys everyone,
- 26:26ye oh no, we sent an email around yeah or something? Did
- 26:30you not get I think I think they did. I think if they did
- 26:34a new Stargate show, I would almost want it to be almost like a
- 26:38twenty ten style thing where it's like, yeah, like you can just there's
- 26:41a small coalition of like we've moved past, like people going their reaction the
- 26:47discovery and the reaction. We've all accepted it there, you know, and
- 26:49we live in this little coalition where it's like, yeah, sure, you
- 26:52can't just go to any planet you want, but it's like, you know,
- 26:56you can. You can travel to I guess not to car anymore.
- 27:00You can travel to the Jafar where the Jafar are hanging out. You can
- 27:02go and hang out with the Knocks or whatever. And we're just we've got
- 27:04this small group of things and we can have other conflicts. But yeah,
- 27:07I think I'd hate to think that, you know, twenty years later,
- 27:11we're still like the SGC is still hiding it from the general population, given
- 27:15that at this point, like even just now, we have every single person
- 27:18involved in the SGC that knows about it, every single person or Atlantis that
- 27:22knows about it. By the time Universe comes around, there's everybody involved in
- 27:25Universe that knows about the disgrunt. There's got to be people that have been
- 27:30fired by the Yeah, Cavanava, Kavanas Yap Yap Yap and down the bar
- 27:33like fucking Jake Gillen Hawley spider Man, no way home. What a great
- 27:38reference. I get what he's going for. He's angry at his old boss.
- 27:42He would absolutely like try and tear the institution down. Yeah, yeah,
- 27:47yep, yeah, so yeah, I don't know. And they never
- 27:51seem to explain how Sam actually gets back. In the end, she's like,
- 27:55oh, yes, that was annoy because it was impossible, right because
- 27:59she had she has. She has a phone call with doctor Lee and he
- 28:03says there is no way to recreate the experiment without the under control both sides
- 28:07of the wormhole. Bill tell me how good news. The preliminary simulations were
- 28:15a bust. There's just no way we can replicate the conditions that originally brought
- 28:18you here, not unless we can control the environment on both sides of the
- 28:22bridge. All right, I'll be back tomorrow. But she figured out them.
- 28:27Well, what would have been really nice is for is for our doctor
- 28:33Lee to think what might have happened potentially and then create the scenario in Carter's
- 28:41lab for our doctor Lee, just thinking out of the box. All right,
- 28:45all we have to do is this, if we set this up for
- 28:48Carter it gives her the opportunity to get to get will we'll, we'll,
- 28:52We'll give her the Lincoln logs, but she's got to build the cabin.
- 28:55Yeah. Yeah, I think it'd be a very lee thing to do if
- 28:59when our card or even by mistake, while he's figuring out how she's how
- 29:03fast she got on tiny legs. Yeah, whoa, I couldn't think of
- 29:08anything, so I just set up exactly what you had done, and while
- 29:11I was trying to figure out what to do next, you returned like that
- 29:15very dear bill by being a fuck tar. That'd be a very doctorly thing
- 29:18to do. Yeah, yeah, I loved it because yeah, it's kind
- 29:22of just like she has the big conversation with President Angry. He basically says,
- 29:30fuck off, you're so like ineffectual, you will do what I take
- 29:33And then the next little next scene is her walking with guards walking her into
- 29:38like the lab and alternate Rodney's there going, oh, by the way,
- 29:42thanks, you told them that ultimately could do this thing that the dead you
- 29:45was trying to do. Now they've basically forced me into doing it. She's
- 29:49like, well, with your help, I can get home. Okay,
- 29:52No, no, no, no, no, like that's I'm like,
- 29:56that's such a weak ass ending, And there's even like a weird Oh yeah,
- 30:02it's Rodney that actually says that Angry's decided to let her go. Well,
- 30:07the first order of business is to create an inter universal bridge, something
- 30:11that I've done in another reality. Apparently, are you serious, m Yeah,
- 30:15I'm not sure what you said, but they're letting you go. Wow,
- 30:19are you smoster realize in more trouble than I'm worth? Amber I said
- 30:22the same thing the day we got divorced, and then yeah, off screen,
- 30:29they just figure out a way to get a home. Yeah, it's
- 30:32a bit lazy. Yeah, it's something simple like that. Would it actually
- 30:36would have taken less time for them to explain about Lee setting up the conditions
- 30:41for her to return. Yeah, because there's going by everything that we were
- 30:45given through that episode, she can't be back. Yeah. Bill literally says
- 30:51it unless unless we can control both sides, there's no way. Because even
- 30:56in McCain and Missus Miller Rodd says that was I knew I was coming here.
- 31:00I knew I was going to do it one way, and then Rodney
- 31:03figured out a way. But it's like that was the whole episode is then
- 31:06figuring out the way to make it. They needed two McKay's and a miller
- 31:10to make it, to make it all happen, and then like this other
- 31:14like tech you know, fucking Elon Musk McKay he's just like, well,
- 31:19you told them an alternate version of me could do it, so now I
- 31:22have to figure out a way to do it. Thanks. You realized when
- 31:26they call him a dot com millionaire, it's weird how many like technically Elon
- 31:32Musk was a dot com millionaire, but you don't think of him like that
- 31:34anymore because he's a dot com billionaire. Well, remember back then, it
- 31:40was kind of like, ah, he did it the easy way. Remember
- 31:42it was like submissive, it was an easy way. It was like one
- 31:48of those dot com Yeah, it's it's it's not something that's gonna last.
- 31:52Yeah, it's a fad. It's a dot com million belt down in a
- 31:59couple of years and he'll be poor again. It'll be fine, and the
- 32:01next is a billionaire. And like Bezos is the same thing. These guys
- 32:06are so hard hitting, heavy. Yeah, that's like like Taylor Swift,
- 32:09she's just a pop star billionaire. Yeah, you know that's not a thing.
- 32:14Though. She'll piss it all. She'll piss it all up the walls.
- 32:15She'll be fine. Donna's age should be destatute. No, she charges
- 32:22her fans crazy, and you hear that. Guys like Maddie can be objective.
- 32:28Absolutely. You know she is a fantastic business woman. Yes, she's
- 32:31a very creative songwriter. I just don't think she sings very well. Okay,
- 32:37okay, yeah, I didn't know that. That's what I don't think.
- 32:38I would say, look controversial, get brave. I think Katie Perry
- 32:44is a better vocalist, then you're what Taylor Swift is. Taylor Swift is
- 32:51a much better songwriter. Taylor Swift can write a song She's like I'm heartbroken.
- 32:55Bang. She can write that eight hundred different ways, and she has
- 32:59I used to have a boyfriend and now I don't. Is basically every single
- 33:02one of her songs, and she has, She's been billions of it.
- 33:06So yeahs a business woman, she's incredible. Yeah. Well, like Brenda
- 33:08said, she charges an absolute maltzer. Yeah. The last twelve months right
- 33:13selling out stadiums, then released tickets. The ticket prizes are outrageous. Yeah,
- 33:20Yeah, and then for like a city like us. She didn't come
- 33:22to our city when she came to Australia. So they said, the the
- 33:25economy in Sydney and Melbourne over those two weekends was so like it was the
- 33:31boost that it received of people flying in staying at the hotel. Oh my
- 33:37god, incredible. I would love I would love every swifty to just go
- 33:39back and watch the Josey the pussy Cats movie and then just look at yourselves
- 33:44and take a step back. Okay, interested heard what is it joson the
- 33:49Pusscats movie? One so good? Tara Reid, Rachel Lee Cook, and
- 33:55Rosario Dawson. It was Rosario. Yeah, God, that's all surprise.
- 34:00The other week when you were talking about racially Cookie like yeah, and I
- 34:04was like, no, mention, No, I probably I probably did,
- 34:07because I've seen posters of that movie since then. I'm like, yeah,
- 34:09she was still very attractive then, but I think at the time I would
- 34:13have been, what fifteen in two thousand and one, I was very much
- 34:15racially cooked was very much my time. She looked great at that. No,
- 34:19I think you like it. It's like it's just this real subtle social
- 34:21commentary about just like the brainwashing that like pop culture does on people and they
- 34:25just they'll just you stay up a brand on something and people will just buy
- 34:29it. They were literally brain literally mean it's really good, Jason. The
- 34:32Pitscats is like they live in the like Scooby Doo and Sabrina Universe. No,
- 34:37ris A Riverdale and Sabrina Universe. Oh yeah it was an old yeah
- 34:42yeah, from the from the comic book. But they're like a little a
- 34:44little band, like a three chick, three piece rock band. I think
- 34:47you like it. It's good. It's very two thousand, that's fift thing.
- 34:52Like I just couldn't get like you're selling all those concerts, people buying
- 34:54tickets or they've seen the show, and then you release a movie that's a
- 34:59documentary. It's just it's just a concert. I didn't think it was a
- 35:00documentary. It was just a concert movie. See he going, what pay
- 35:05to watch the same concert again just from a closer vantage point and then if
- 35:09you're in Australia, then you would go and watch the concert from a poor
- 35:14advantage point that you went and paid to see at the cinema. And then
- 35:19they released on Disney Plus the concert a different It was the Taylor's version of
- 35:24the same concert. You know what, it had four extra songs. So
- 35:28it's already a two and a half three hour documentary or a movie on the
- 35:31on the concert, but then you would go and watch it again, okay
- 35:35for free on Disney. But still on top of all the money, like
- 35:37everyone spent to have to travel to the places that she performed, didn't she
- 35:40does a worldwide tour and then comes to two cities in Australia April because the
- 35:45stadiums aren't big enough. Yeah, and that's what the Olympics. We've got
- 35:50a lot of controversy going on here in Brisbane when you can do three Melbourne
- 35:52shows especially only did one, didn't she? No, No, she did
- 35:55like three or four. She's played Brisbane before. Yeah, she played some
- 36:04call Yeah, like she played Hamilton Cops. She played Hamilton Island. We
- 36:08flew up with Linda Hamilton Island. Red Room from our radio company is like
- 36:13an intimate set. We we'd have a concert where you don't invite forty people,
- 36:15and then we've had like the Red Room at the Opera House where we
- 36:19had ed Sheer and fly Out and play in front of you know, two
- 36:21thousand or whatever it might have been. But then we had like a handful
- 36:24of people where we sent you up to Hamilton Island to watch like the most
- 36:27intimate Taylor Swift gig. But that was when she was like, oh she's
- 36:30got a couple of good songs. Yeah, I love love story. Now
- 36:31it's like she's the biggest fucking superstar on the planet. You can't touch that
- 36:36woman. But great business. Yeah, she's getting way too much airtime.
- 36:42Yeah, that's all right. Some of it's been cut out, most of
- 36:45it, perhaps because I would say the last in the last couple of months,
- 36:47you know, I would say, Taylor swis Scott more air time this
- 36:50podcast than Star Trek has and that I will not stand for. There's got
- 36:53to be a bit from one of her songs. That's one, you know,
- 36:59like she's count of the reasons why she hates Jake, Jillnal or some
- 37:01ship. I don't know mate, Yeah, sorry, yeah, those blokes
- 37:09are pigs. Yeah. There is a goof in this, God You've gone
- 37:14woke. There's a goof in the continuity in this in the alternate reality send
- 37:20it, we have the external shot of Cameron Mitchell's building. He's stuck in
- 37:27a wheelchair, wheelchair wheelchair a walk up. That's why the government did That's
- 37:36why he's so dirty and greasy out there. He can't get out and shower.
- 37:40That was such a weird scene. I don't it didn't make sense.
- 37:45He didn't further the plot, no at all changed the freedom. Looks like
- 37:52it was what changed their mind to play ball. But yeah, but then
- 37:53she goes, I'll play ball. But then she didn't. But she didn't.
- 37:55I thought she used that because she knew the guy to see service guy
- 38:00was she is, where are you? You know exactly where I am,
- 38:02by the way, I'm going to play ball, and it's a good idea.
- 38:06I think she went there to have a chat with VAM to convince them
- 38:09that she whether or not she knew that Cameron had done the same thing already,
- 38:13or she just went to see him trying to get some kind of familiarity,
- 38:16and then through that, through that meeting went oh, I need to
- 38:19tell them that I will do it so that I can get in a public
- 38:22situation like they put her in because they fell for it and they needed her
- 38:24to do a sit thing. And I mean they cut her off line.
- 38:28But when did she have the punch on in the car park. Then I
- 38:30thought that was when she left Lieutenant cam No, no, she because that
- 38:35when she left camp. She immediately walked down the stairs, not the ramp,
- 38:37and called up the secret Service guy and said I'll play ball. And
- 38:40then it cut to the next scene, which I think was the television studio.
- 38:44So the punch on after I think was maybe she was leaving the television
- 38:46studio. Maybe they picked her up Landry. Is the gag really necessary?
- 38:52They're like, oh, you have no idea? She would not shut up?
- 38:55Yeah, just silencing women. That's how you know she was spoiling all
- 39:00of our favorite shows. Apparently there are three episodes ahead on Her Earth.
- 39:04What's really funny though, is when they filmed that, there was just like
- 39:08just generic public crowds in there because they were out on location and it was
- 39:13a very humbling experience for them, but there was a crazy crowd of people
- 39:17watching and they're all lined up against the library. This woman comes up to
- 39:22me and she goes, what are you shooting? And I said an episode
- 39:24of Stargutness do you want? And she goes, Oh, where's the actor?
- 39:30That would be me? She's like, who are the others. That
- 39:35was very funny. I remember telling me about that. People wonder why our
- 39:37cast is so humble. That's hilarious. I think, like not even in
- 39:44Canada. Yeah, film there, Yeah, Lincoln, he's my brother.
- 39:50Been on the show if you needed the podcast or something whatever. He's an
- 39:52actor and I've seen like him walk around and he goes to somewhere in public
- 39:55whatever and someone will can't to because other people get photos with him. Someone
- 39:58can't and say, oh, do you like can I get a photo?
- 40:00And then they'll get a photo with him, and then they'll ask him what
- 40:04he does. So they just like it's that they absolutely are and they're like
- 40:09harder capital yeah, like really like I'm not even supersibility just like yeah,
- 40:16like even the d nd S is like, oh, I don't know if
- 40:20we can help you. There's not enough funding. Yeah, we don't have
- 40:23enough budget. But you can't fix stupid. Yeah whatever you've got, there
- 40:29are people that need our help. You're just you're not You're just a mouth
- 40:31breather. I don't because because I have a block. No, no,
- 40:38when I when I go to sleep, I'm literally I've got a mad deviated
- 40:42septum. And poll ups and all kinds of ship. I would breathe through
- 40:45my mouth at night. It's a medical condition. It is mouth breather.
- 40:47Is just they're not They're not like medically socially the functionally softer not harder.
- 40:58Okay, yeah, like that. I'd liked LRN as SG one leader.
- 41:05I feel like they've really missed out on like an SG two counter team or
- 41:08like you know where you need backup? They go, oh, send the
- 41:13Marines, like bring SG two like you would. It would be nicely if
- 41:15we had known SG two, if he, if Lorne was head of SG
- 41:20two, that would have been nice if someone what I think the point is
- 41:23the reason card, like Lorn's over on Atlantis. I think that that's only
- 41:30the only reason they Broughtady, meaning is because it's like she was like,
- 41:31you're not supposed to be here, You're supposed to be in the pegasas Galaxy.
- 41:34Yeah no, I get that. But what I'm just saying is,
- 41:37well, why did it have to be SG one? I liked I liked
- 41:39the chemistry between him being the leader of SG one, which in my head
- 41:44is just a secondary team anyway, So if he was in charge of SG
- 41:49two and then he was the backup for the team. What I'm saying is
- 41:52it would have been nicer for them to have a secondary team where you get
- 41:55you get to know the characters more. Oh yeah, in like the earlier
- 42:00seasons. Yeah, I guess. I guess his team would have been more
- 42:05involved if he didn't die. Yeah, Yeah, and we don't. I
- 42:07think what Reynolds is the is the leader of what s G two or SG
- 42:10three like that, the Marine Unit or whatever. They're the ones that came
- 42:14up with SOD. But he's been in like three episodes. I feel like
- 42:17they kind of do what you're saying with Lawn in Atlantis kind of like because
- 42:22he is kind of like the the s the SR or whatever team to wait
- 42:28team too for Atlantis. Yeah, the Renolds thing is interesting because I mean,
- 42:31obviously the Lawn thing works because you want to bring him, you want
- 42:34to keep him on Earth because he never went to Atlantis. But the Reynolds,
- 42:37like he's the like Marines. I can't is he the guy with the
- 42:42massive chin. Reynolds he was the one that started at at Area fifty one
- 42:50back in like season four, and then they gave him off. Yeah,
- 42:54and then they're the ones that wear Camo, but then they wear the tan
- 42:58boots boots all the time. Yeah, I'm just thinking if he was the
- 43:02leader of SG one because because of the martial law, because of how things
- 43:06had changed and they were much more of a like it was much more of
- 43:08a war scenario over the last couple of years on this Earth, that they'd
- 43:13taken their military leader, their marine type or action SG number three, They've
- 43:20taken that leader and put him into SG one. Because no, this isn't
- 43:22just an exploratory sort of unit with science people like you Jackson, like your
- 43:28Carter. We need someone who's going to actually go there, like a like
- 43:30a Stargate movie. Jack O'Neill, you're there. You're there to detonate the
- 43:35one, l O'Neill, Yeah, one, You're there to detonate the bomb
- 43:37and sacrifice yourself. You're not over there to negotiate. You are there to
- 43:39kill some motherfuckers. So, but the Lawn thing obviously works because it feeds
- 43:45into the idea that Atlantis has never discovered that I know what it is.
- 43:49I just like that character. I feel like Lawn. Yeah, I like
- 43:52it. Amanda Tapping was apparently very taken with him in the Auto company.
- 43:54She's like, he's just so attractive. Is that a notere? She's like,
- 44:00oh, such so good to look at, calm down, love,
- 44:04a husband and a kid at home, relaxed. What I what I did
- 44:07like about this episode is they the production and you're like the whatever old mate
- 44:14was double daughter or whatever that says we hate on the show too much.
- 44:17Even the people who make the show are making the same kind of comments we
- 44:21were making. Yeah, with the whole clip thing, like the clip,
- 44:24the clip thing, the dragon during the quest, the case and point from
- 44:30me was the quest, remember with the dragon, imagining a dragon to be
- 44:37about five hundred times bigger than what I actually ended up being in the show,
- 44:39more like a dragonflygon exactly what sound my son? Look, it's a
- 44:46dragonfly. Instead they had that big Andy mcketa's son is even saying, Dad,
- 44:53that dragon on your show was ship? Is that kid? White one?
- 45:00And hate just white hate, just eight year old white hate. Because
- 45:04you're like, in Game of Thrones you've seen dragons, Oh they're big,
- 45:07and then well you've seen sorry, yes, we've explained that. The women
- 45:13to the women community explained that. Then the woman's on the House of the
- 45:17Dragon, where that big fucker shows it dwarfs the other dragons not a dragon,
- 45:25sorry women other one house of Woman's obviously. Yeah, you imagine like
- 45:34between the end of Game of Thrones and the start of House of the Dragon
- 45:37that they had actually had to come out and apologize and I'm so sorry they're
- 45:39actually Wovans and they had to rename the show and change the entire backstory.
- 45:44Yeah, they not to put that this is a fantasy and that in this
- 45:46world, in this are actually all dragons. Doesn't matter. They go back
- 45:50in the same way they had to paint out the guy and the jeans and
- 45:52couple that kind of stuff. They go back and digitally alter every single scene
- 45:55where so it's it's Calici going where are my whither? Where are myans?
- 46:01I am the mother of WANs. Hey. I hate to bring it up,
- 46:10but I'm gonna anyway. There was a moment at the start of this
- 46:15episode with Carter, and it I very much connected with her in this moment,
- 46:22tell me Brendan's connected before. It very much felt like anytime I'm in
- 46:27this room. It took me back to like twenty ten when I'm trying to
- 46:30explain things poorly at least, he admitted a couple of weeks ago, when
- 46:35I was trying to explain simple things like carab disgusting things. Yeah, I
- 46:40actually that they're actually not so bad. Yeah, I felt like Carta very
- 46:45much in this moment. I've experienced what Carter is experiencing. There you go,
- 46:49No, no, this is different. Look. According to m theory,
- 46:52there are a fixed number of alternate dimensions existing in the parallel with our
- 46:55known universe. The multiverse theory, on the other hand, posits the existence
- 47:00of an infinite number of alternate universes, each evolving concurrently with our own.
- 47:05Was there a universe out there somewhere? Where are You're giving me a straight
- 47:07answer? If only we had that grab Yeah, yeah, no, I
- 47:15feel your I feel your Krter just the sigh of exasperation at the end she
- 47:19had they just and not a Martain Ghiro side, which was great. It
- 47:24was a real side that Amanda Tapping chose to put in herself, which was
- 47:28fantastic. And the other really upsetting part about this episode just from a production
- 47:34point of view, this is another those weird episodes. It was shot in
- 47:37little chunks over like four months of this episode, just little bits and pieces
- 47:40here and there to the point where that final scene with Amanda Tapping and McKay
- 47:46or sorry, what's the actors thet David Hewett, Hittmanta Tacking, that final
- 47:53scene where they're in the lab, that was actually filmed on the very last
- 48:00day of shooting of Stargate Ever, so Amanda Tapping had to shoot that scene,
- 48:06really change outfits and go and film the very very last shot from Unending,
- 48:13which anyone who's seen the special features or knows, you know, the
- 48:15final episode of this series, what that shot was. It was a very
- 48:20emotional day. It was a very emotional day for these people. Amanda Tapping's
- 48:24very last day of work. Ever, she had a film that last scene
- 48:29and after the Unending, No, she's filmed this then when filmed that,
- 48:32they scheduled it. So with Unending, the very last shot of the final
- 48:38episode is the last thing they ever filmed on the show. That's good,
- 48:43but yeah, she had to basically in her mind go back to episode thirteen
- 48:47of an alternate version Carter or Carter in an alternate reality talking to her an
- 48:52alternate mackay that she was married to at some point that thinks she's a Lesbian
- 48:55then had to go and get a costume change and go and film the very
- 48:59very live Seed of Stargate that at the time they thought they would ever shoot
- 49:02because they didn't know about Ark of Truth or Continuum yet at that point.
- 49:06Yeah, right, yeah, that would be so rough. That would be
- 49:09so rough. Yeah, I'm just trying to wrap my head around that,
- 49:12like imagine there had been done the dickish thing and be like, I'm so
- 49:15sorry because of you know light. You know, You've got a film Unending
- 49:19first, and I don't remember what the last show. I remember the episode,
- 49:22and I remember how sad it is, and there's so many great moments,
- 49:28but I don't remember the last shop, but still do a film that
- 49:30and then go, okay, now to go back and film episode thirteen here.
- 49:35Yeah, I'm not going to spoil anything, but in the special features
- 49:37four un Ending, during that last scene, they had to change some of
- 49:42the writing because Christopher Judge literally couldn't get out, and indeed, because he
- 49:47was crying so much, they had to change the lineup so that he was
- 49:51at the back of the of the raking shop because you could see his eyes
- 49:54swelling and all the red around his eyes from crying him like they were so
- 49:58emotional to be after ten years to be wrapping up this show. Given that
- 50:02they were wrapping it up, it was less emotional about nine to eleven.
- 50:07What a bastard. I mean, he probably wouldn't cry nowadays, now that
- 50:10he and Shanksy don't get along, he would have just been like, as
- 50:13fine, yeah, how weird. Yeah, I blame Shanksy. I see
- 50:19Michaels is my man racial. No, he's Canadian, so it's fine.
- 50:23That's that's I'm half American, so I can't So you're racist. I guess
- 50:30I'm a wide American not siding with the black American. Chris Judd, No,
- 50:34you're right, I'm spot on half racist. Yeah, our favorite accidentally
- 50:39racist and half racist. Good excellent. And the the Varla hug. The
- 50:47Varla hugg, Oh yeah, that was that was improvised. That was something
- 50:51that Claudia Black brought to the She just decided to do that. No one
- 50:54knew about it, she just decided to do it. They mean you will
- 50:57keep that in. I liked demanded Tapping's reaction. Hmmm, yeah, that
- 51:02was quite wholesome. I like the hug was nice. The run back,
- 51:06I didn't like the run back. Yeah, I just the thing for me
- 51:08that was was that we really did miss you, Samantha. But I was
- 51:12like, you just give them the hug. Yeah, the hug was enough.
- 51:14You didn't need to say. Yeah. Yeah, maybe they spoke some
- 51:17real hard truths. Well she wasn't in the room. Well maybe it was
- 51:22just just circling back to the whole lesbian thing. Yeah, well I never
- 51:25found McKay thought she was. Yeah. The the the deleted scene is it's
- 51:30actually that that whole scene just happened in McKay's head and they that's when they
- 51:35start taking clothes off and it becomes that scene from Avenger two point zero where
- 51:38Carter and the and that little blonde scientist start start wrestling, and then McKay
- 51:45and and Felder were just in there watching it. I don't care O'Neill and
- 51:49McKay, O'Neill and Felder, Yeah, they're just watching it. I mean,
- 51:52speaking of Maddie, you've got this just unlabeled. How can I help
- 51:55you? Well, this is going to come as a bit of a shark,
- 51:59but I'm not who you think I am. Oh my god, you're
- 52:02a lesbian, that's what you're trying to McKay no, because I just I
- 52:07think I thought her very It's funny how she's calling him McKay Yeah, yeah,
- 52:14like he would have been. At first, she says, Hi,
- 52:15Rodney, thanks for seeing me, and I'm like that seems yeah, like
- 52:20she was trying she dropped the charade. Yeah, yeah, where She's like,
- 52:23well, I guess that's sighed you. Why are you calling him by
- 52:25my last name? We've been married. How jealous is our university? Oh
- 52:30my god? That would be the one thing she's ever learned in her life
- 52:34that she would try to forget the most, like just in case she accidentally
- 52:37told McKay one that in an alternate universe they were married and he was a
- 52:43millionaire. And mackay just goes, so, you're telling me there's a chance
- 52:46you'd leave out you'd leave that bit out of your report when you Yeah,
- 52:52so how did you get back? I just met some boke I've never met
- 52:54before with like actually don't remember his name anyway, he helped me. End
- 52:58of stories. All that information wouldactuh miche lad, did you notice something for
- 53:04you in the auto commentary? You always have a lot of fun with uh.
- 53:07The director's name sometimes like Carl Binderbinder, Andy Mkeita. Sometimes you have
- 53:14fun with well, i'd say from the context cluses, I think they have
- 53:21they have fun with that on on set as well, because as I'll wrapping
- 53:24up the episode, Amanda Tapping called Annie Mkeita Akuna mccartera. She's like,
- 53:30thanks for mccatter, so I'm assuming that's what he must be called on set.
- 53:34What a wonderful phrase. Get into Gate, Get into Gate Stargate podcast,
- 53:45Get into it now before it's too late.
