Trivia:

Was 63 minutes long as opposed to the standard 45 minutes. They edited it to 45 minutes for syndication and put it on the DVD as well, until fans complained. MGM then offered a rebate, whereby people could send back the DVD with the shortened episode to receive a DVD with the longer episode.

Quotes:

Oma Desala: Frank, I need a Noah's boy in a blanket, two hen fruit wreaked on a shingle with a mystery in the alley, a warmy with a moldy lid, and two checkerboards, alright?
Frank: Got it.
Oma Desala: Oh yeah, hold the pig.

A Strong episode in a not so strong season.

*** This review may contain spoilers ***

This episode is my absolute favorite from this season possibly one of the best that I have ever seen. This is surprising since the the season is the transition. You almost might consider season eight the end of Stargate SG1 and the beginning of Stargate SG1 sans RDA. The Daniel Arc is so great. When he is faced with the choice to ascend again and he chooses not to it is quite interesting. I admit I was also quite shocked when Anubis is revealed as someone who I wasn't quite expecting him to be.

The Sam/Jack storyline is good for the shippers. Leaps and bounds are made in the'relationship' between the two. It is also interesting to note that Threads and Moebius pt 2 end the same way, well almost the same way.

Except fish or lack there of and Jack and Sam are sitting slightly differently. . . yeah.
