The SG-1 is exchanging experience with the inhabitants of the scientifically developed planet Orban. The representative Kalan gives a naquadah reactor to Sam to study and she requests someone to couch her. Kalan does not understand the request but the girl Merrin offers to train Sam. Meanwhile Kalan's son Tomin learns from Teal'c the danger of the Goa'uld. Merrin is submitted to medical examination by Dr. Fraiser and she finds that she has nanites implanted in her brain. Soon Merrin explains that when they reach twelve years old, they have a ceremony called Averium when all their knowledge is removed together with the nanites to be implanted in the scientists to bring progress to their people. Further, the children become slow with the removal of the nanites. Jack has become attached to Merrin and does not accept the explanation. However Daniel understands the explanation of Kalan and tries to explain Jack that Merrin must return to her planet. But Jack abducts Merrin to show her something on the surface and outside of the SGC. What will Jack do with Merrin?
"The Learning Curve" is one of the best episodes of "Stargate SG-1" with a beautiful story. Jack O'Neill has one of his best roles in this series and the plot is sentimental but never melodramatic. The conclusion is simply wonderful. My vote is nine.
Title (Brazil): "The Learning Curve"
