More from Stargate SG1 For the First Time - STILL Not a Star Trek Podcast
It's part 3 of a two-parter. In this one, the Stargate SG1 team has to get one of their own back! Teal'c has been brainwashed, and Braytac knows there is only one way to undo it...take Teal'c to the very Threshold of death, forcing him to relive the moments of his life that led him to where he is, and more importantly WHO he is, and see if he can come back from that. Something Star Trek would never do, but will it work here?
The end of one thing usually means the beginning of another. In this case, it's the end of Stargate SG1 season 4 and the beginning of SG1 season 5. No worries though, despite a few references, this is most definitely STILL NOT A STAR TREK PODCAST. Sam a plan to take out Apophis's fleet once and for all, and it just involved a little bit of science and blowing up a star. But that sets off a sequence of events that results in the loss of a close friend and the reemergence of an old enemy. And Apophis is there too. Join us as Jeff experiences this for the first time and Brent seeks out what messages these episodes contain.
