Trivia:

This episode considered by both the producers and fans as one of the poorest of the series and it is regularly skipped in syndicated reruns.

Goofs:

Factual errors: Carter mentions she is in a yurt. This maybe true, but Mongols live in 'Gers', similar to Yurts, but with a couple of slight differences. Several members of the team also stand on the entrance way to the Ger/Yurt, which is a faux pas in Mongolian Culture

Quotes:

Jack O'Neill: The hell with culture - a member of my team has been neutralized. That's a hostile act.
Dr. Daniel Jackson: How is it that you always come up with the worst case scenario?
Jack O'Neill: I practice.
