- 0:36Speaker 2: I'm certain.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Someone's excited to be here, not necessarily, but I just
- 0:44Speaker 1: know that I can't play the actual song Bigger Spotify,
- 0:48Speaker 1: We'll send us a naughty naughty list. Hey where it's
- 0:51Speaker 1: nearly Christmas time.
- 0:52Speaker 2: We can't afford that, So it'd be appropriate if this
- 0:54Speaker 2: episode good on.
- 0:56Speaker 1: Mate, You've been talking this upper Storm, haven't I?
- 0:59Speaker 3: Yeah, the Supper Brainstorm, Yeah, well done, two weeks early
- 1:03Speaker 3: for that.
- 1:04Speaker 1: Detective John Shepherd attempts to solve a string of unusual
- 1:08Speaker 1: murders in Las Vegas, now even knowing whoops written directed
- 1:13Speaker 1: by Cooper, I should say even I was even knowing
- 1:18Speaker 1: the context around it. That's a weird synopsis to read.
- 1:21Speaker 1: But if you had no idea and that, you'd be like, what,
- 1:25Speaker 1: they're in a different galaxy and he's operating as a
- 1:29Speaker 1: detect what the is going on? And that was what
- 1:33Speaker 1: you had said to me leading into this podcast, all
- 1:35Speaker 1: this episode, going dude, you're not ready. You might love it,
- 1:39Speaker 1: And you'd ask me the other week you said, do
- 1:41Speaker 1: you love it? Just like off the back of nothing.
- 1:43Speaker 1: You said, do you like procedurals? Like, yeah, yeah, like
- 1:45Speaker 1: some like Rushka.
- 1:48Speaker 3: I don't know how that how that translates into the
- 1:50Speaker 3: type of show she does, whether it's just from RuSHA
- 1:52Speaker 3: harg No.
- 1:52Speaker 1: I do love me some law and Order s for you.
- 1:54Speaker 1: I like all the law and orders. But you know,
- 1:56Speaker 1: I could take or leave a a C side at
- 1:59Speaker 1: mind and n C I s at the moment obviously
- 2:02Speaker 1: think was on it a couple of weeks ago. But yeah,
- 2:03Speaker 1: I don't mind my swats. A big fan of SWAT,
- 2:06Speaker 1: you know. So yeah, procedural is it? I guess, so, yeah, yeah,
- 2:09Speaker 1: it'll be a proceed.
- 2:11Speaker 3: The closest one I got it to was Bones. I
- 2:12Speaker 3: did like that, but only the first like three seasons,
- 2:15Speaker 3: and they got rid of my favorite character.
- 2:16Speaker 1: So I was like, oh, really's like like a side
- 2:18Speaker 1: character sort of thing.
- 2:19Speaker 2: No one of the main characters, really, little the Little
- 2:21Speaker 2: Did you ever watch it?
- 2:22Speaker 1: No?
- 2:23Speaker 2: Okay, not really.
- 2:24Speaker 3: It was like it was like Bones is like offside
- 2:25Speaker 3: a little the little nervous guy, little sort of quiet
- 2:28Speaker 3: nervous guy.
- 2:28Speaker 2: Tonati was a serial killer. Spoiler alert. Oh for the
- 2:33Speaker 2: show that's twenty years old.
- 2:34Speaker 1: No one hell of a twist.
- 2:35Speaker 3: Yeah, anyway, I'm sorry, but that just happens to be
- 2:39Speaker 3: how I feel about it.
- 2:41Speaker 1: What do you think that sounds like something you've just said.
- 2:43Speaker 1: I'm sorry, that's just the way I feel about it.
- 2:46Speaker 1: And now me being nervous, say I'm sorry. What do
- 2:54Speaker 1: you think? I know you're better than that. No, you
- 2:56Speaker 1: wouldn't say, yes, sir, absolutely, yeah, I think. As it started,
- 3:02Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, so where is this? If this is
- 3:04Speaker 1: a dreamscape type episode, it's a weird it's a weird
- 3:10Speaker 1: thing to dream.
- 3:11Speaker 2: But like John has a habit of weird dreams.
- 3:13Speaker 3: When he had that soprano dream the other at the
- 3:15Speaker 3: start of the season, he was drinking wine with Taylor,
- 3:17Speaker 3: that's true, and Forward showed up for a split second.
- 3:20Speaker 1: Yeah, for the splittest of seconds. But this, I'm like, okay,
- 3:26Speaker 1: it could be some type of device. You know, We've
- 3:29Speaker 1: been in episodes of SG one where we're in some
- 3:32Speaker 1: weird place or that the characters are sort of slotting
- 3:34Speaker 1: into different roles and then it turns out that they're
- 3:36Speaker 1: all plugged into a machine and it's some type of
- 3:39Speaker 1: matrix set up, and they slowly realize something's going wrong.
- 3:42Speaker 1: And I'm like, okay, well we've got John who is
- 3:45Speaker 1: from Earth. He's back on Earth. He's the leader of
- 3:47Speaker 1: a team. Okay, he's a detective and he's outsolving vicious murders.
- 3:51Speaker 1: And but there's like animalistic type murders. You know, he's
- 3:55Speaker 1: been his blood has been drained, and this looks like
- 3:57Speaker 1: it's an attack we some type of animal or something.
- 4:00Speaker 1: So that ties into Okay, that's the real world version,
- 4:02Speaker 1: and he's stopping Wraith, and okay, are we going to
- 4:05Speaker 1: get to a point where yeah, this is that for
- 4:11Speaker 1: s G A interesting you would do that with two
- 4:13Speaker 1: episodes to go. And it was like them having so
- 4:16Speaker 1: much fun with the idea of like let's overly ce
- 4:20Speaker 1: USI the shit out of things. Yeah, and like they
- 4:23Speaker 1: nailed that the sort of like jump sort of like that.
- 4:26Speaker 1: It was almost like it was twelve frames a second,
- 4:28Speaker 1: so that's sort of like spotty sort of way, and
- 4:30Speaker 1: then you know the sort of flash you know, cuts
- 4:33Speaker 1: and things like that.
- 4:34Speaker 3: Yeah, but like famously, but I said to you last
- 4:37Speaker 3: week or maybe the week before, I only made it
- 4:39Speaker 3: through eight minutes of the audio commentary on this one. Yeah,
- 4:41Speaker 3: and was basically them just talking about everything, they.
- 4:45Speaker 1: Like, super proud of themselves.
- 4:46Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, basically just going well, you know, in the
- 4:48Speaker 3: lead up to this, we watched an entire season of
- 4:51Speaker 3: CSI with audio commentary.
- 4:53Speaker 1: I could have done it with one episode, yeah, maybe two.
- 4:56Speaker 3: And then talked about like, oh, you know, yeah, CSI
- 4:58Speaker 3: is known for you know shots, and then also like
- 5:01Speaker 3: having a hot spot or like on the screen there's
- 5:03Speaker 3: always some kind of hot you know, piece of lighting
- 5:06Speaker 3: and all that.
- 5:07Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's just minutes and minutes and minutes, and
- 5:09Speaker 2: I just went, oh, I'm so.
- 5:10Speaker 1: Not for me. Yeah, maybe I would like that. Maybe
- 5:13Speaker 1: I would like the filmmaker side of it, because.
- 5:17Speaker 2: Yeah, I normally do when it's like a Peter de
- 5:18Speaker 2: Luiz would.
- 5:19Speaker 1: But I mean for something that you're not into, which
- 5:21Speaker 1: is like procedurals, You're like, I could care less about
- 5:23Speaker 1: watching it let alone. I just said I could care less,
- 5:26Speaker 1: you know, So I hate that I could care less
- 5:29Speaker 1: about that. I'm like, see you care a little bit. No,
- 5:31Speaker 1: actually I couldn't care less. We'll say that you couldn't
- 5:33Speaker 1: care less. If you could not care less, say that.
- 5:35Speaker 3: Yeah, what was on that my friend used to get
- 5:37Speaker 3: get wrong? It'll come to me I'll think of it.
- 5:40Speaker 3: But there was a word that yeah that shoot, oh
- 5:45Speaker 3: with all intensive purposes.
- 5:47Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it. Yeah, yeah, and it's a lot that
- 5:49Speaker 1: the whole that whole phrase is a lot you know.
- 5:51Speaker 1: So it does sound like that, sure, yeah, with all
- 5:54Speaker 1: intad said purposes, it's like, oh, okay, someone's cultured here. Yes,
- 6:01Speaker 1: on the.
- 6:02Speaker 3: Audio commentary, this is pretty much the point where I
- 6:05Speaker 3: checked out.
- 6:05Speaker 1: But he also had the freedom to go out to
- 6:08Speaker 1: the desert, which is somewhere we never get to see
- 6:10Speaker 1: that kind of landscape in our usual settings here.
- 6:13Speaker 2: And yeah Stargate, Stargate has never been to the desert.
- 6:17Speaker 3: That's something real. And you'll hear in the background that
- 6:19Speaker 3: was the opening credits.
- 6:21Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:21Speaker 3: Yeah, So there wasn't long after that I pieced out,
- 6:23Speaker 3: But yeah, I was just like, yees, Stargate's not known
- 6:26Speaker 3: for the desert.
- 6:28Speaker 2: We've never seen the desert before. So I'm so glad
- 6:31Speaker 2: you don't.
- 6:31Speaker 1: They look back at the movie, which took place almost
- 6:34Speaker 1: entirely in a desert. Yeah, I appreciated like how well
- 6:40Speaker 1: they mimicked the style. And then it went on like
- 6:43Speaker 1: that for probably half and then it was just maybe
- 6:47Speaker 1: it was the moment where he basically got picked up
- 6:49Speaker 1: by that version of the SG whatever, right, and he's
- 6:54Speaker 1: being spoken to and by Woolsey and by McKay and
- 6:59Speaker 1: there was no thing CSI about it from that point
- 7:01Speaker 1: on that none of the sort of the style of CSI.
- 7:06Speaker 1: And it just kept going, and I just I found
- 7:09Speaker 1: myself asking, Okay, well, why are we doing this then?
- 7:12Speaker 1: If we're not gonna if it isn't going to be
- 7:14Speaker 1: like a complete one hundred percent parody episode, why are
- 7:17Speaker 1: we doing this? Yeah?
- 7:18Speaker 3: Certainly wasn't a like, for laughs parody episode No. Two
- 7:21Speaker 3: hundred which you know what, I'm whole extreme or maybe.
- 7:23Speaker 1: I would have been more pissed off about that. Maybe
- 7:27Speaker 1: I don't know. And look, I wasn't entirely like upset
- 7:30Speaker 1: with this episode by no means. It was just I
- 7:32Speaker 1: think having the knowledge which they would have at the
- 7:35Speaker 1: time as well making it, and as fans I'm sure
- 7:38Speaker 1: would have known ahead of watching it, Yeah, this is
- 7:40Speaker 1: your second last episode of Stargate Atlantis, And I just
- 7:43Speaker 1: found myself going, why now? Why not ten episodes ago?
- 7:46Speaker 3: Yeah, if this was the second last episode of season
- 7:48Speaker 3: two or something like that, I'd be like, yeah, fine, whatever, Yeah,
- 7:51Speaker 3: And you just skip it. But it's like, essentially this
- 7:55Speaker 3: entire episode, the payoff was the Wraith sixty in sending
- 8:00Speaker 3: that message to multiple universes.
- 8:02Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, so last week you said to me save
- 8:06Speaker 1: for I don't know whether you gave me a time
- 8:08Speaker 1: duration or just said save for one moment or something
- 8:11Speaker 1: like that. It's the episode kind of has no point.
- 8:15Speaker 1: Is that purely what you meant? Because okay, good? Yeah,
- 8:18Speaker 1: Because I'm watching it, I'm like, oh, so we're only
- 8:20Speaker 1: building up to this, Okay, cool. This is a it's
- 8:22Speaker 1: a frightening prospect, the idea of like, well, something we're watching,
- 8:26Speaker 1: something that's happening in a different reality that is going
- 8:28Speaker 1: to be very dangerous for our guys. That they're giving
- 8:31Speaker 1: away the location of Earth, our Earth in our reality,
- 8:34Speaker 1: and we're watching how that has happened. So cool, but
- 8:38Speaker 1: I think you're using up forty odd minutes of a
- 8:42Speaker 1: storyline to set that up.
- 8:44Speaker 2: Yeah, there's spoiler a little bit for next week.
- 8:46Speaker 3: There's just there's a random moment next week where they
- 8:50Speaker 3: get a transmission. Yeah, and they're like, oh, it's come
- 8:54Speaker 3: from another universe and it's broadcasting the location of Earth.
- 9:00Speaker 2: That's it. Yeah, right, so now the rape next week,
- 9:02Speaker 2: the rath no where Earth is now?
- 9:03Speaker 1: I know, Hey, it's the multiverse, tens of thousands of
- 9:06Speaker 1: billions of different options that we could go for. But
- 9:10Speaker 1: the way that these sort of stories movies and TV
- 9:12Speaker 1: set to work, it's like if they refer to having
- 9:14Speaker 1: interacted with one another before, it's like, oh, it's probably
- 9:17Speaker 1: the same one that we saw, you know, Spider Man,
- 9:20Speaker 1: No Way Home. That's nothing to say that's our Toby
- 9:23Speaker 1: Maguire from the three movies we've seen, or that's our
- 9:25Speaker 1: Andrew Garfield. But there's enough things that tick the boxes
- 9:28Speaker 1: along the way that we're for the audio, for the
- 9:30Speaker 1: audience that is, you know, we're trying to make the
- 9:32Speaker 1: point that there are tens to the billions of the
- 9:34Speaker 1: power of whatever our options out there, but we're going
- 9:37Speaker 1: to say, yeah, these are actually the two that you
- 9:39Speaker 1: were familiar with as an audience. So the idea that
- 9:41Speaker 1: we saw to Rodneys is that what we're meant to
- 9:43Speaker 1: believe is when we had the two Rodney's, the alternate
- 9:46Speaker 1: one is the one we followed in this episode.
- 9:49Speaker 2: No, no, no, So he's not rod He's right.
- 9:52Speaker 1: He's not the cool right, that's I thought, I'm like,
- 9:54Speaker 1: I liked that guy. Now you're a bit of a dick.
- 9:57Speaker 1: But that's Rodney. But he referred to having interacted to who.
- 10:01Speaker 3: Yes, so this the Rodney in this episode obviously had
- 10:07Speaker 3: a similar experience where a version of rod came and
- 10:11Speaker 3: visited him. Because this version of this version of McKay
- 10:16Speaker 3: has never met John before. This is the first time
- 10:19Speaker 3: he met he's met John, whereas.
- 10:21Speaker 1: Rod Cool Rod obviously had his.
- 10:23Speaker 2: Best friends he works on a team with with Sheppard.
- 10:25Speaker 1: I forgot about that, Yes, yeah, I had.
- 10:27Speaker 2: I had to go back.
- 10:28Speaker 3: I had to go back and read some stuff about it. So, yeah,
- 10:30Speaker 3: that's what he was basically insinuating.
- 10:32Speaker 1: And that was the marvelous Missus Miller Miller h episode. Yeah.
- 10:37Speaker 3: Yeah, So basically that's that's how this universe found out
- 10:42Speaker 3: about other universes. At some point a version of rod
- 10:47Speaker 3: you know, another different showed up terminator style in that
- 10:51Speaker 3: tube like on Atlantis. Yeah, but in this version, Shepherd
- 10:57Speaker 3: never never joined the Well that's edition.
- 10:59Speaker 1: That's kind of cool. And yeah, if it's like, hey,
- 11:00Speaker 1: well this is a different Rodney McKay that has never
- 11:04Speaker 1: interacted with it's not that he's the one that's interacted
- 11:07Speaker 1: with our Rodney McKay. He hasn't even interacted with the
- 11:09Speaker 1: other Rodney that interacted with our Rodney McKay. It's just
- 11:12Speaker 1: that similar things have happened to them along the way,
- 11:15Speaker 1: so that expands in the old idea of a multiverse. Actually,
- 11:18Speaker 1: I actually like that.
- 11:19Speaker 3: Yeah, something that I did think was fun though, which
- 11:22Speaker 3: I didn't know until I was sort of reading up
- 11:23Speaker 3: the bits and pieces about it. The Wraith guy like
- 11:26Speaker 3: the Raith, that's Kayleik, that'member son of Anubis.
- 11:30Speaker 2: The Hello Richard or do you prefer Dick?
- 11:34Speaker 1: Yes, yes, same guy, same.
- 11:35Speaker 2: Mac Daniel Jackson. Okay, yeah, I had no idea. Can
- 11:38Speaker 2: you like him a little bit more?
- 11:39Speaker 3: Because I love Kayley kyleek it's such a dick. But yeah,
- 11:42Speaker 3: I was like, that's such a weird thing to get
- 11:43Speaker 3: him back and not have any lines and this be
- 11:46Speaker 3: this weird Wraith.
- 11:47Speaker 1: Now I'm watching the Yeah, the weird Raith and like
- 11:50Speaker 1: he's doing the make like it was. It was a
- 11:52Speaker 1: convince to make it what.
- 11:55Speaker 3: I'm sorry, but as a as a production studio that
- 11:58Speaker 3: makes like TV shows and does make up, there is
- 12:02Speaker 3: no way anybody even if you've got the.
- 12:06Speaker 2: The the immune system of a Wraith.
- 12:08Speaker 3: There's no way you're putting hand makeup on and then
- 12:12Speaker 3: putting a contact in your eyeball. Come on, the line
- 12:17Speaker 3: must be drawn here this far. No, don you think
- 12:23Speaker 3: he should have had He should have had the contact
- 12:25Speaker 3: lens hidden in his hand vagina and you could have
- 12:27Speaker 3: just put it in like that.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Sterile in the Absolutely Okay. I thought you're going to
- 12:32Speaker 1: put sh on on just like how his makeup and
- 12:35Speaker 1: it didn't look convincing enough. Well that that works well
- 12:38Speaker 1: for the character.
- 12:39Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely.
- 12:39Speaker 3: What I thought was a little bit though, is when
- 12:42Speaker 3: we do the flashbacks or whether to the first murder
- 12:46Speaker 3: in the car?
- 12:48Speaker 1: What do you what? Do you what do you think
- 12:49Speaker 1: I was two up to?
- 12:50Speaker 2: I mean they were they were kind of parts.
- 12:52Speaker 1: I think we need one in the driver's seat there
- 12:55Speaker 1: needy he needed money mate?
- 12:57Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, he's He's like, do you do you
- 13:01Speaker 3: wanna Do you want a blowjob, a hand job or
- 13:04Speaker 3: a combo?
- 13:05Speaker 2: Because I can do it all with my hands.
- 13:07Speaker 1: Look at this thing.
- 13:07Speaker 2: Yeah, do you want a hand vagina job?
- 13:10Speaker 1: That's oh my god, it's not gay if it's a
- 13:13Speaker 1: hand for a job.
- 13:13Speaker 3: And that's how he that's how he sucked the life
- 13:15Speaker 3: out of him quite literally.
- 13:16Speaker 1: Yeah yeah.
- 13:17Speaker 2: I mean, if if you're gonna go, that's the way
- 13:18Speaker 2: to go, I guess.
- 13:19Speaker 1: But I just know there are people that needing to
- 13:21Speaker 1: get into this studio very soon, and they're probably in
- 13:24Speaker 1: a place now where they can hear it. Holy shit,
- 13:27Speaker 1: that last minute would be the wildest thing. Yeah. Yeah,
- 13:32Speaker 1: when he's putting on applying the makeup, which is good
- 13:34Speaker 1: because I obviously had to have him in wraith makeup,
- 13:39Speaker 1: but then apply human looking makeup and prosthetics to the
- 13:45Speaker 1: wraith to the same.
- 13:46Speaker 2: Thing they did with Jack Nicholsons as.
- 13:49Speaker 1: The Joker mate can I I watched that last night.
- 13:52Speaker 1: I watched that movie last night, and I don't think
- 13:55Speaker 1: I have ever given as much respect to how much
- 14:00Speaker 1: prosthetics he was wearing. It wasn't just like the heightened cheeks.
- 14:03Speaker 1: It's like all the way back, like yeah, there's a
- 14:05Speaker 1: big sort of almost to his almost to his ears almost.
- 14:08Speaker 1: There was a side on shot when he's talking abob
- 14:10Speaker 1: at one point and I'm like, oh my god, look
- 14:12Speaker 1: how far back Anyway, That's just that's just weird that
- 14:14Speaker 1: you brought that. I literally was watching twelve hours ago,
- 14:17Speaker 1: because you know, it's good Christmas viewing for my kids,
- 14:19Speaker 1: because we don't get to Batman Returns Return Christmas, your
- 14:22Speaker 1: favorite Christmas movie. But I'm watching it and because I
- 14:26Speaker 1: didn't I don't know actors, and and I'm trying to
- 14:28Speaker 1: remember when this one was made, and I'm like, is
- 14:32Speaker 1: that Sam whitwor like he just buy that? Yeah? Absolutely,
- 14:38Speaker 1: He's got that really like pronounced sort of like the
- 14:40Speaker 1: chin and the chin.
- 14:43Speaker 2: He's got a very strong facial structure.
- 14:44Speaker 1: Yeah, and just like his his brow above his eyes.
- 14:47Speaker 1: I'm like, that looks that's that's a maybe that's a
- 14:51Speaker 1: what's what's a cloth Sommon version of Sam some some
- 14:56Speaker 1: what work? Maybe make it.
- 14:59Speaker 2: Ship up I'm in winter.
- 15:00Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. So well anyway, I was just like, oh,
- 15:03Speaker 1: is this gonna be? Is this gonna be mister star
- 15:05Speaker 1: Wars himself? Sam would bring him.
- 15:07Speaker 2: Back for the reboot, bring him back to the new show.
- 15:09Speaker 1: But I mean, like he did cut like a a
- 15:14Speaker 1: Wesley Snipes blade type vampire look of like sexy. He
- 15:19Speaker 1: was a sexy wraith like walking through the streets of Vegas.
- 15:22Speaker 2: Long leather jacket.
- 15:23Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, with the cool glasses and stuff. Yeah, like
- 15:26Speaker 1: the pale phasis. I'm like, dude, you're either that or
- 15:29Speaker 1: you one of the twins from the Matrix where you
- 15:31Speaker 1: loaded I can taking their dreads out. Yeah, because in
- 15:34Speaker 1: any other show, you'd be like, really like, you're not
- 15:37Speaker 1: gonna buy that guy's been a little bit off and
- 15:40Speaker 1: he's walking around the streets of Vegas. And also look
- 15:42Speaker 1: at the style that that guy's cutting. I'm not surprised
- 15:44Speaker 1: that no one looked at him twice and went it's
- 15:47Speaker 1: just like, yeah, you're one of the You're one of
- 15:48Speaker 1: those people that just sort of sits in the middle
- 15:50Speaker 1: of the of the CBD, you know.
- 15:52Speaker 3: But I also feel like, having never been to Vegas,
- 15:55Speaker 3: I feel like he would have fit in better in
- 15:56Speaker 3: either La or New York than he would have the
- 15:58Speaker 3: desert of Vegas.
- 15:59Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, definitely. So yeah, So like I kind of
- 16:04Speaker 1: liked what this was. I just don't know that I
- 16:08Speaker 1: where it comes down for me, Like it might not
- 16:10Speaker 1: be down the bot. I'm trying to think of where
- 16:12Speaker 1: what we thought was clearly going to be our bottom
- 16:14Speaker 1: place for our rank, which.
- 16:15Speaker 3: We'll do in a couple of episodes, Kelly gets turned
- 16:17Speaker 3: into the.
- 16:19Speaker 1: Maybe I feel like there was one a little bit
- 16:20Speaker 1: more recently, but maybe i've been re listening to the pods.
- 16:22Speaker 1: I'm not sure. Anyway, I don't think I could confidently
- 16:25Speaker 1: say this is not going to be my bottom episode.
- 16:27Speaker 1: I just think it the overall score that I might
- 16:30Speaker 1: give it has been brought down a little bit because
- 16:32Speaker 1: of its placing. Knowing that next week is the final
- 16:37Speaker 1: and I haven't seen the final episode yet, so it
- 16:40Speaker 1: could make me feel worse about this episode given whatever's
- 16:44Speaker 1: going to happen in that episode. I don't know.
- 16:47Speaker 2: Yeah, it's definitely not a two part of any stretch
- 16:49Speaker 2: of the imagination.
- 16:50Speaker 3: It's just a you know, this has a tiny correlation
- 16:56Speaker 3: between sort of this and next week's episode.
- 16:58Speaker 1: Now, given that you're a fan of this episode, oh yeah,
- 17:02Speaker 1: I'm going to guess that you didn't watch both versions
- 17:04Speaker 1: of it, but you did watch the extended.
- 17:06Speaker 2: Well, I don't know that I had the option.
- 17:08Speaker 1: Because I didn't watch the extended I know that for
- 17:10Speaker 1: a fact.
- 17:10Speaker 3: Oh really, yes, so I clicked on the DVD. I
- 17:13Speaker 3: watched it on the DVD. Yeah, and it says extended episode. Yea,
- 17:17Speaker 3: there's no option for the other the non or the
- 17:20Speaker 3: extended episode.
- 17:21Speaker 1: You just prayed have to be the extended Yeah, it was.
- 17:23Speaker 3: Only forty four minutes and twenty nine seconds, so like
- 17:27Speaker 3: so maybe an extra minute maybe?
- 17:29Speaker 1: Yeah. I was going to say, whether you knew what
- 17:31Speaker 1: the what the difference was?
- 17:32Speaker 2: No idea, no idea.
- 17:33Speaker 3: So yeah, like with obviously with the last time we
- 17:36Speaker 3: had an extended episode would have been Threads back in
- 17:38Speaker 3: season eight of SG one, and I.
- 17:41Speaker 2: Feel like that was a full extra like ten to
- 17:43Speaker 2: fifteen minutes or something.
- 17:44Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but this was just it was a.
- 17:46Speaker 2: Forty four minute, twenty nine second episode, and I'm like
- 17:48Speaker 2: that same as next week.
- 17:50Speaker 3: I clicked on that and it's a forty three minute,
- 17:54Speaker 3: fifty five episode and it calls it an extended episode,
- 17:58Speaker 3: and I'm like, is that because forty two minutes is
- 18:00Speaker 3: the normal run time?
- 18:01Speaker 1: Maybe? Well, I promise I will commit to watching the DVD.
- 18:05Speaker 1: I'm not going to mess around by watching this on
- 18:07Speaker 1: my phone or a laptop. Like it's the finale, Like
- 18:10Speaker 1: I'm already nervous about it, Like it's the end of
- 18:14Speaker 1: a show. Like when we got to the finale of
- 18:16Speaker 1: you know, we get to unending for SG one. It's
- 18:18Speaker 1: like I remember this episode and it's sad that we're
- 18:20Speaker 1: at the end of SG one, but I'd already seen that.
- 18:23Speaker 1: I haven't seen Stargate Atlantis. So like for me, I'm
- 18:26Speaker 1: doing something that you won't be able to experience until
- 18:29Speaker 1: the end of this new show coming out in a
- 18:31Speaker 1: couple of years, and I'm getting to have that now,
- 18:33Speaker 1: Like what a selfish viewer. I get to have this
- 18:35Speaker 1: finale now in a year's time, I get to have
- 18:37Speaker 1: the finale of Universe, and then maybe a year later again,
- 18:40Speaker 1: I had to get to have the finale of whatever
- 18:41Speaker 1: this new show is. So it pays to be late sometimes.
- 18:45Speaker 1: That's what I always tell people.
- 18:48Speaker 3: Something that I was late to they mentioned in this episode,
- 18:52Speaker 3: I never got to see it.
- 18:53Speaker 2: Oh he could have abandoned whatever resources you had and
- 18:55Speaker 2: just gone into hiding.
- 18:56Speaker 3: Oh yes, you've probably got a job as a cleon
- 18:58Speaker 3: at Star Trek the experience and shut down.
- 19:01Speaker 1: Really damn, I want to see that.
- 19:04Speaker 3: That was a That was a Robert Pocado edition for
- 19:06Speaker 3: him saying it did shut down.
- 19:07Speaker 2: Oh really, Robert Pacado was part of that. Yeah recorded videos.
- 19:10Speaker 3: He did that one and I think Borg Invasion or
- 19:13Speaker 3: something like that in Yeah Vegas, the Star Trek Experiences
- 19:17Speaker 3: and Yeah, they shut down.
- 19:18Speaker 1: That's actually kind of fun when I had that, Like
- 19:20Speaker 1: I was, I was so moving about while watching this,
- 19:22Speaker 1: and that made me stop and pause and looking him like, oh,
- 19:25Speaker 1: come that he's going to have a field day with this.
- 19:29Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Hey, look, we don't often throw to or break.
- 19:32Speaker 1: We're going to throw to it now only because if
- 19:34Speaker 1: we didn't, we're going to potentially sound very different the
- 19:37Speaker 1: next thing we say, because we're actually getting kicked out
- 19:38Speaker 1: of the studio and we're going to go record in
- 19:41Speaker 1: a different studio. But yeah, we get slightly different Mike
- 19:43Speaker 1: and yeah, yeah, so if we sound different in thirty seconds,
- 19:46Speaker 1: that's why.
- 19:47Speaker 2: Injured these ads. Uh No, Ronan and Taylor this episode,
- 19:51Speaker 2: which I thought was weird.
- 19:52Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I thought that was strange too. Again,
- 19:54Speaker 1: granted that we are two episodes to go, and it
- 19:58Speaker 1: makes sense that we've got these two alien creatures that
- 20:01Speaker 1: they would play no part. It wasn't one of these
- 20:03Speaker 1: things where it's like, oh, in this one, Hammond is
- 20:05Speaker 1: the president and you know, Walter is the guy that
- 20:08Speaker 1: works at the local convenience or anything like that, as
- 20:11Speaker 1: it done an SG one before. But yeah, again, just
- 20:15Speaker 1: the idea of not having two of our main cast members.
- 20:18Speaker 1: I'm like, this just seems like a bit of a
- 20:19Speaker 1: missed opportunity. Guys, like, how do we.
- 20:21Speaker 2: Tell said last week?
- 20:24Speaker 3: This episode was filmed last which means Rachel and Jason
- 20:28Speaker 3: would have rapped right on the show completely and weren't
- 20:32Speaker 3: even there for the last week of production.
- 20:36Speaker 1: That's a bit I mean, I guess maybe you understand
- 20:40Speaker 1: maybe that care because they get they're on holidays, but
- 20:41Speaker 1: at the same time, the series is wrapped, the season,
- 20:45Speaker 1: the series finale has been filmed, and then it's like, Okay,
- 20:48Speaker 1: we're going to bring back most of you, like not
- 20:52Speaker 1: a kick in the dick.
- 20:53Speaker 2: But all the white males, which was weird. But maybe
- 20:59Speaker 2: that's why.
- 20:59Speaker 3: You know, mamull remember when he did the commentary for
- 21:02Speaker 3: like his episode, he just like cracked the beer or whatever.
- 21:05Speaker 2: He was, shit, I don't care, I'm still getting paid.
- 21:08Speaker 1: Maybe that's why, like he'd already wrapped by that point.
- 21:11Speaker 1: You said he filmed his final shots. Yes, I like
- 21:13Speaker 1: the idea of instead of it being his final shot,
- 21:16Speaker 1: it's when they're recording an episode that doesn't need him
- 21:20Speaker 1: and he's just like, good, I'm getting drunk, because yeah,
- 21:23Speaker 1: it painted a bit of a not so much a
- 21:26Speaker 1: grim reality of the stargates anything, let alone program on
- 21:32Speaker 1: this Earth. But obviously it worked out a little bit
- 21:37Speaker 1: differently along the way. Would that be Would that be
- 21:40Speaker 1: fair to say, like I get there still over in
- 21:42Speaker 1: the Pegasus galaxy, but they've traveled back because of what's
- 21:45Speaker 1: going on on Earth, because yeah, at the start, I
- 21:48Speaker 1: thought maybe the idea of having a wraith on Earth
- 21:50Speaker 1: that is something that has happened in our reality. But
- 21:53Speaker 1: the guys are almost living through a fear like John's
- 21:56Speaker 1: living through like his greatest fear or something in some
- 21:59Speaker 1: type of miss like we've seen an SG one, which
- 22:02Speaker 1: obviously wasn't the case. But yeah, things have played out
- 22:05Speaker 1: a little bit differently, but generally also they are playing
- 22:10Speaker 1: out the same sort of way in this Pegasus. But
- 22:13Speaker 1: clearly it was going to get to it. Well, the
- 22:15Speaker 1: fact they were already on Earth, which was not something
- 22:17Speaker 1: that's happening in our reality, was just like, oh, okay,
- 22:20Speaker 1: they haven't. They've not done something right, and more so
- 22:24Speaker 1: for your sake, I wanted them to stop short of
- 22:27Speaker 1: the idea of being like, well, maybe if John Shepherd
- 22:30Speaker 1: had been here the whole time, that this none of
- 22:33Speaker 1: this would have happened. So, but it is.
- 22:36Speaker 3: The biggest plot hole for me is what I didn't
- 22:39Speaker 3: understand is obviously, in this universe the Wraith had found Earth,
- 22:44Speaker 3: there was an attack, like they did say, like there
- 22:46Speaker 3: was a there was a hive that attacked yeah or
- 22:48Speaker 3: whatever and this and this. You know, Goth Wraith was
- 22:52Speaker 3: kind of just the last one left. So does that
- 22:56Speaker 3: mean in that universe, because obviously we know that all
- 22:59Speaker 3: the Hives don't necessarily work together, does that mean they
- 23:02Speaker 3: were the only faction of Wraith that knew where Earth
- 23:07Speaker 3: was and didn't want to share that information with the
- 23:09Speaker 3: rest of the Wraith. So then his last ditch effort,
- 23:12Speaker 3: knowing he was the last one left, his plan was
- 23:15Speaker 3: to let the Wraith of that universe know where Earth
- 23:19Speaker 3: was as kind of a revenge. But because of the
- 23:23Speaker 3: explosion and all the stuff that happened, the secondary effect
- 23:28Speaker 3: is that the message then got sent to multiple other
- 23:31Speaker 3: realities universes.
- 23:33Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean so in a way.
- 23:35Speaker 3: John made it worse, hiffed over every reality, Whereas if
- 23:42Speaker 3: they just let the Wraith get away with this plan,
- 23:44Speaker 3: only that reality would have been.
- 23:47Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean to each reality, it's the only
- 23:49Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, we're not going to
- 23:51Speaker 1: sacrifice the world we're currently sitting here in this studio
- 23:54Speaker 1: and go, well, you know what, if we've got to
- 23:56Speaker 1: be fine with annihilation because maybe another one of us
- 23:59Speaker 1: out there will be okay, Like the same way I
- 24:01Speaker 1: guess when we got on board that other Dadalus a
- 24:04Speaker 1: couple of episodes ago, and we just saw another version
- 24:08Speaker 1: of the SGA team dead, and it's like there's probably
- 24:10Speaker 1: a room in there where they've all been dying. I
- 24:12Speaker 1: didn't feel sad about it. That it sucks to be then,
- 24:14Speaker 1: but I'm not otherwise feeling that bad for those guys
- 24:17Speaker 1: because they're not they're not ours, which maybe goes into
- 24:20Speaker 1: support your entire argument since they're but for the grace
- 24:23Speaker 1: of God that because it's an alternative reality, we don't
- 24:25Speaker 1: care about it, and that's not what I'm here to do.
- 24:27Speaker 1: I'm certainly not agreeing with that.
- 24:28Speaker 3: Also, if that message got out to all of or
- 24:33Speaker 3: at least some other realities, did the message not get
- 24:37Speaker 3: to the Wraith in that galaxy? And is that galaxy
- 24:40Speaker 3: like that universe now safe as well?
- 24:42Speaker 2: Anyway?
- 24:44Speaker 3: Like it's the equivalent of like, okay, you and I
- 24:46Speaker 3: could step on an ant in the middle of the
- 24:48Speaker 3: corn in the middle of the room. But what that
- 24:51Speaker 3: means is, in six months time, billions of ants overtake
- 24:56Speaker 3: the entire planet and every other planet in the multiverlin
- 25:00Speaker 3: every other earth in the multiverse by us stepping on
- 25:02Speaker 3: this one ant. So like, if if we just stepped
- 25:06Speaker 3: on that and let let that ant do what it
- 25:08Speaker 3: needed to do, you and I would die in six
- 25:12Speaker 3: months time from the ants taking over. But every other
- 25:15Speaker 3: you know, reality, which they know exist in this universe, Yeah,
- 25:20Speaker 3: every other reality is over. But like it's a it's
- 25:24Speaker 3: a weird it's a weird way to go. But yeah,
- 25:27Speaker 3: like I think I probably would have been more harsh
- 25:30Speaker 3: on this episode had it been, like you were saying earlier,
- 25:33Speaker 3: a dream sequence or some kind of you know, non
- 25:37Speaker 3: real thing.
- 25:37Speaker 2: It's at least it is real in a way.
- 25:40Speaker 3: But yeah, very much like there, for the grace of God,
- 25:42Speaker 3: I don't care because we never we never go back,
- 25:44Speaker 3: We never revisit any of these people. And presumably John
- 25:48Speaker 3: dies at the end of this episode, yeah, where he's
- 25:50Speaker 3: kind of just left their bleeding out.
- 25:51Speaker 1: That's how it's so good.
- 25:52Speaker 3: Yeah, which also, yeah, because you know, John loves to
- 25:55Speaker 3: make a sacrifice.
- 25:58Speaker 1: Uh.
- 25:59Speaker 3: What was weird though, is the way he quit, like
- 26:02Speaker 3: prior to that, when he like, just he stole all
- 26:05Speaker 3: that Wraith money, all that evidence he stole that money,
- 26:09Speaker 3: quit like a dick, just like walked out of his
- 26:12Speaker 3: office without saying a thing to his captain and then
- 26:15Speaker 3: just drove into the desert and was just like, I'm
- 26:18Speaker 3: out of here, I'm done.
- 26:20Speaker 2: And then it was only because he figured.
- 26:21Speaker 3: It out through his little flashbacks, his little CSI flashbacks
- 26:25Speaker 3: or his little little monk house style working out the thing.
- 26:29Speaker 3: He's like, oh, I'm going to go and stop this.
- 26:30Speaker 3: Wraith died in the process. And over ever other reality.
- 26:34Speaker 1: So, I mean, I'd forgotten about the money thing he's taken,
- 26:41Speaker 1: but here I was about to say, shy of even
- 26:44Speaker 1: the it's condemning other realities, especially the one that I
- 26:48Speaker 1: assume going into a series finale that I haven't seen
- 26:51Speaker 1: yet that includes ours very much. So outside of that,
- 26:59Speaker 1: this world was saved by him because he didn't give
- 27:03Speaker 1: up the SG whatever they were giving up. They're like,
- 27:07Speaker 1: I mean, who knows this seems bad? He could be
- 27:10Speaker 1: out there anywhere, like the amount of power that he
- 27:13Speaker 1: needs doesn't even exist on this blood Ah, it'd be
- 27:16Speaker 1: so much. And it's like, nah, he's just near a PowerTower.
- 27:19Speaker 1: He's fine, he's just plugged into the grid and he'll
- 27:21Speaker 1: be okay. It's like, all right, cool. He might be
- 27:23Speaker 1: draining the entire of Vegas then okay. They seem to
- 27:26Speaker 1: not think there was enough power and like the continental
- 27:28Speaker 1: United States or whatever. But he's just you know, plugged
- 27:31Speaker 1: it into a socket in the you know, from his
- 27:33Speaker 1: from his meth lab in the middle of the Vegas desert. Fine, whatever,
- 27:37Speaker 1: But they were they were resound to not finding him
- 27:42Speaker 1: almost they were almost okay that they were giving up,
- 27:45Speaker 1: because well, what else can we do? Whereas John did
- 27:48Speaker 1: stop it and yeah, in the end got himself killed
- 27:51Speaker 1: for it, but that earth, as far as we know,
- 27:54Speaker 1: he got to survive because yeah, maybe so.
- 27:56Speaker 3: The transmission didn't get spread out in that universe.
- 27:59Speaker 2: It only when through like the.
- 28:01Speaker 1: That's what they said, right there was like a rip
- 28:04Speaker 1: checked out. Yeah, there was like a rip in the
- 28:06Speaker 1: fabric of space time and that basically all the information
- 28:09Speaker 1: got like straight into the rip and it didn't make it.
- 28:12Speaker 1: They said, we can guarantee, we can't be that we're
- 28:14Speaker 1: not detecting these radio signals or whatever beyond the Solar
- 28:19Speaker 1: System or beyond the Milky Way, So therefore it hasn't
- 28:23Speaker 1: gotten to the Pegasus galaxy where Yeah, the wraith, but maybe.
- 28:26Speaker 2: The message only came to our reality.
- 28:29Speaker 1: Well, maybe maybe it didn't go over.
- 28:30Speaker 3: Every single reality because obviously when Rod goes through the
- 28:35Speaker 3: the the what do they call it, the Miller Bridge
- 28:37Speaker 3: or whatever it.
- 28:38Speaker 2: Is, he didn't go into every universe. He just went
- 28:40Speaker 2: into our universe.
- 28:42Speaker 3: So maybe the little thing the tear in in in
- 28:47Speaker 3: subspace or the whatever that this raith did maybe next
- 28:51Speaker 3: week where the only universe that got that signal. Yeah, point,
- 28:56Speaker 3: that's that's better, better than every single universe and the multiverse.
- 29:01Speaker 1: I guess wonder if it would have been cool on
- 29:03Speaker 1: some I know that we're to assume. I guess that
- 29:07Speaker 1: many other SGA teams have died on that alternate dead
- 29:11Speaker 1: list from the variations. We don't know that we only
- 29:15Speaker 1: saw one group, but we're to lead on there's probably
- 29:17Speaker 1: a room down there with one hundred different ronans in there,
- 29:21Speaker 1: just stacked on top of each other, because that's hot
- 29:23Speaker 1: to begin with.
- 29:24Speaker 3: Obviously, was it last week that I said just chop
- 29:26Speaker 3: up the pieces and was chop up the body and
- 29:28Speaker 3: the pieces.
- 29:29Speaker 1: Jesus. I've tried to forget it, but had they have
- 29:35Speaker 1: insinuated that, I don't know. I was going to say.
- 29:39Speaker 1: It was almost like not that it was their dead lists,
- 29:41Speaker 1: but that their deadlists had gone missing or something to like,
- 29:46Speaker 1: I guess then, is you are limiting that the scope
- 29:48Speaker 1: of the multiverse if we insinuate, oh, we lost a
- 29:51Speaker 1: team on some rogue deadalists, we know the multiverse exists,
- 29:53Speaker 1: or our dead lists went missing and we haven't been
- 29:56Speaker 1: able to find it. We think it went to a
- 29:57Speaker 1: different reality or something like that, because they may well
- 30:00Speaker 1: of overshared because it was so interesting to see there
- 30:03Speaker 1: was there was no precedent for why they were telling
- 30:06Speaker 1: him everything. Right that he gets brought in by Wolsey
- 30:09Speaker 1: and then McKay walks in. I was like, I'm going
- 30:12Speaker 1: to tell him anyway, you know, and just like full
- 30:15Speaker 1: Bond villain exposition heavy tells him everything and not even
- 30:21Speaker 1: like hey, I'm going to tell you because or hey
- 30:23Speaker 1: I think I can trust you, just everything. For like
- 30:26Speaker 1: fifteen minutes, it felt like and we're getting as an
- 30:29Speaker 1: audience that's been watching our version of of SGA operate
- 30:34Speaker 1: in a completely different way. We're getting to hit the
- 30:36Speaker 1: backstory of this world, and then only when he's about
- 30:39Speaker 1: to get in his fucking car, he's like why, and
- 30:42Speaker 1: he's like, oh, now, I there's a different version of
- 30:46Speaker 1: you out there. I'd like to think that that you'd
- 30:48Speaker 1: be trustworthy as well. So yeah, yeah, he was cool
- 30:51Speaker 1: and yeah, and I figured you'd be the same type
- 30:54Speaker 1: of guy. So I'm like, that's a fucking gamble when
- 30:57Speaker 1: you're talking about international and interstellar secrets here, guys. I'll
- 31:03Speaker 1: allow it because I know both of these characters, and
- 31:05Speaker 1: I know that this John clearly is a version of trustworthy.
- 31:08Speaker 1: But like that that excuse a little thin.
- 31:11Speaker 2: He's also a thief because he stole all that money,
- 31:12Speaker 2: so I.
- 31:14Speaker 1: Made drug money or something.
- 31:15Speaker 3: It's fine, blood money, it's right, yeah, yeah, but those
- 31:18Speaker 3: people already they're already dead.
- 31:20Speaker 1: True.
- 31:20Speaker 2: True.
- 31:21Speaker 3: I didn't think it was weird though, with the Wraith,
- 31:23Speaker 3: the fact that he chose to face plant, like when
- 31:25Speaker 3: when John was chasing him after the after the poker game,
- 31:29Speaker 3: and the Wraith like jumped off the roof to escape him.
- 31:33Speaker 3: Maybe it's a maybe you could argue, well, if he'd
- 31:35Speaker 3: landed on his if he tried to do a superhero landing,
- 31:37Speaker 3: his bones would have gone through.
- 31:39Speaker 2: His body or whatever.
- 31:40Speaker 3: But the fact that he just chose to face plant
- 31:42Speaker 3: and like crack his skull on the on the concrete
- 31:45Speaker 3: and then heal and then get up.
- 31:46Speaker 2: I was like, Trually, there's a cooler way to have
- 31:50Speaker 2: done that.
- 31:50Speaker 1: I reckon he watched Men in Black when he was
- 31:52Speaker 1: in his hotel room, and that's that that alien that
- 31:56Speaker 1: Will Smith's chasing at the start where he doesn't also
- 31:58Speaker 1: know anything about aliens, and that guy does some freaking
- 32:00Speaker 1: dicky shit, and yeah, the idea of like, I'm going
- 32:04Speaker 1: to do this because I'm pretty sure I'm going to
- 32:06Speaker 1: be able to recover from this.
- 32:09Speaker 3: I mean only being that I wish I lived in
- 32:10Speaker 3: the Many Black universe and this episode could have been.
- 32:13Speaker 1: Uilized, given me to realize yourself.
- 32:14Speaker 2: Yeah, but we got Walter, we got some Walter.
- 32:19Speaker 1: Always happy to see his Yeah when it pops up
- 32:21Speaker 1: Gary Jones guest starring, and I'm like, fuck, yeah, let's
- 32:25Speaker 1: just throw him in. Why not at this point.
- 32:27Speaker 2: Have we seen him at all this season? I don't.
- 32:29Speaker 3: I don't think so. So his last episode would have been.
- 32:34Speaker 2: Unending. And then I guess he was in Continuum.
- 32:37Speaker 1: Yeah, because who who we didn't get him in Oh no,
- 32:41Speaker 1: that was last season anyway. I was thinking of Midway.
- 32:45Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but that was last season.
- 32:47Speaker 2: That was last season.
- 32:48Speaker 3: So a few other little cameos we did get though, and
- 32:51Speaker 3: if you look closely, when John is walking through the
- 32:54Speaker 3: casino brad right, yes, yes, oh, I want to say
- 33:02Speaker 3: the black jack table. And then in the actual like
- 33:07Speaker 3: the high stake secret game that the Wraith is a
- 33:09Speaker 3: part of. Yeah, one of the guys sitting there is
- 33:12Speaker 3: Joel Goldsmith. Oh nice, the composer who Brendan you know,
- 33:16Speaker 3: did it did that great bit for for Jerry and
- 33:18Speaker 3: Joel when we did what Continuum?
- 33:21Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, yeah.
- 33:23Speaker 3: So I think there were a few more others in there,
- 33:24Speaker 3: but it was one of those instances where, yeah, they
- 33:27Speaker 3: just got a lot of the behind the scenes, behind
- 33:29Speaker 3: the camera people and put them into the episode.
- 33:31Speaker 1: Oh that's cool. Yeah.
- 33:33Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to say it though, because in the
- 33:36Speaker 3: finale of Deep Space nine they have a recurring holiday.
- 33:40Speaker 1: We have changed studios. You know that I don't have
- 33:43Speaker 1: on hand the ability to give you a that's one.
- 33:46Speaker 2: It's going to make you put it in in post.
- 33:48Speaker 1: It could be that's two to be fair because you
- 33:50Speaker 1: played that audio where they talked about Star Trek. But
- 33:52Speaker 1: I'll allow that because the show gave that to us.
- 33:54Speaker 3: Yes, okay, but yeah, there is a recurring holiday program
- 33:58Speaker 3: in Deep Space nine, which is vic Fontaine. It's like
- 34:02Speaker 3: a nineteen fifties Vegas casino kind of situation. And in
- 34:05Speaker 3: the final episode they go there and he sings a
- 34:07Speaker 3: song and the crowd is full of the director and
- 34:11Speaker 3: show runner and they're all dressed up as like nineteen
- 34:13Speaker 3: fifties Vegas sort of people.
- 34:15Speaker 2: So did seem a little a little too on the
- 34:19Speaker 2: nose for me.
- 34:21Speaker 3: Given that that was literally ten years before this nineteen
- 34:24Speaker 3: ninety nine.
- 34:24Speaker 2: Well, finally of Deep Space ninals, I'm happy for you.
- 34:29Speaker 3: I mean, if I had anything else to talk about,
- 34:31Speaker 3: I'd give you a that's three so that I could
- 34:33Speaker 3: have a microphone turned off.
- 34:34Speaker 1: But we can just bowl mate. I mean, it's nice
- 34:35Speaker 1: and sure, but we can bail because we are excited
- 34:38Speaker 1: about next week. Well, I assume mine going to be.
- 34:41Speaker 1: I mean, it's a finale, regardless whether it's shit or
- 34:44Speaker 1: it's great. Yeah, it is something you know, like, you
- 34:47Speaker 1: haven't teased Vegas that well, but I'm assuming that next
- 34:50Speaker 1: week's finale is better.
- 34:53Speaker 3: I mean, anything could be better than this For me,
- 34:56Speaker 3: at least, I think anything could be better than Vegas.
- 34:58Speaker 1: Will you commit to watching the end We're listening to
- 35:00Speaker 1: the entire audio commentary? Then, oh god, no for next week?
- 35:04Speaker 1: Oh no for next week?
- 35:05Speaker 2: Absolutely? Absolutely?
- 35:05Speaker 1: Ye, so automatically better.
- 35:07Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I'm just trying to in my head, I'm going,
- 35:09Speaker 3: what's worse this or like first Commandment?
- 35:12Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 35:12Speaker 1: That's where I'm okay. I was thinking maybe again, although
- 35:16Speaker 1: all these fanciful ideas that we have at the end
- 35:18Speaker 1: of when we don't have episodes, or maybe we're padding
- 35:20Speaker 1: for time between you know, universe and whatever this new
- 35:23Speaker 1: series is going to be. And I finally watched the
- 35:28Speaker 1: first ones, and you finally have to listen to the
- 35:31Speaker 1: audio commentary of Vegas.
- 35:34Speaker 3: Only if you watch the first ones and then watch
- 35:38Speaker 3: the first ones with the Peter Delawize audio commentary that
- 35:41Speaker 3: explains all the things that Shaku is saying, and then
- 35:44Speaker 3: you go back and watched a third time knowing what
- 35:46Speaker 3: Peter Delawie says about the episode. If you do it,
- 35:49Speaker 3: if you do that three times. So if you watch
- 35:51Speaker 3: first one three times, I'll listen to the full audio
- 35:53Speaker 3: commentary of this once.
- 35:55Speaker 1: Is that deal? At the start, I was like going, oh,
- 35:58Speaker 1: I've clearly got the better end of the deal. In
- 36:01Speaker 1: the end, that's two hours of my life, Like, I
- 36:03Speaker 1: could do worse. And you know, you know that there's
- 36:06Speaker 1: TV out there that I do watch more than once
- 36:08Speaker 1: because I watch it next week the episode I'm like, Han,
- 36:11Speaker 1: last week, I'm going to rewatch it. I didn't have
- 36:13Speaker 1: that sort of time, but I do find the time.
- 36:16Speaker 3: The flip side is, obviously I would quite happily watch
- 36:19Speaker 3: the first ones once, then listen to the audio commentary,
- 36:22Speaker 3: then watch it again, knowing what I've listened to the
- 36:24Speaker 3: audio commentary. I would rather do that than listen to
- 36:27Speaker 3: the audio commentary of this episode.
- 36:29Speaker 1: Okay, maybe we should swop.
- 36:32Speaker 3: Time is a flat circle for me, you know what
- 36:33Speaker 3: I mean. So it doesn't matter. I've got the time.
- 36:35Speaker 3: Two hours is nothing. Two hours of enjoyment over forty
- 36:39Speaker 3: minutes of absolute mind numbing this.
- 36:42Speaker 2: Come on, mate, I just like this.
- 36:43Speaker 1: Conversations you know, we have with each other, send each
- 36:45Speaker 1: other voice notes and they go, oh man, I've been
- 36:48Speaker 1: wanting to watch this one episode of TV for like
- 36:50Speaker 1: six months, and I just keep like running out of
- 36:52Speaker 1: time to do it. And you go, ah, I'm currently
- 36:55Speaker 1: watching three episodes of Star Trek that I know that
- 36:58Speaker 1: I've seen eleven times each. You know, I'm like, oh,
- 37:02Speaker 1: can I just borrow a little bit of that time?
- 37:04Speaker 1: Like I don't have to steal it all? Please that?
- 37:07Speaker 1: Or I could recommend you watching some stuff for the
- 37:09Speaker 1: first time through, but you know, I don't want to
- 37:11Speaker 1: yuck your gum.
- 37:12Speaker 2: You do a little bit, You do a little bit.
- 37:15Speaker 1: What are we talking about again? Get into Geek, get
- 37:20Speaker 1: into the Gate, get into gate Stargate, and send me
- 37:27Speaker 1: some ass brea
