Episode Summary
 
[x] Remove Ad
SG-1 gates to a world which they find worships the Norse god, Freyr. The people believe the team are Elves, as disciples of Freyr are known as.

All seems to go well until the planet’s sky turns red. The local religious interpreter decries that the SG-1 team is the cause of this strange occurrence, suggesting that SG-1 has brought on Rag’norok on the people – meaning the end of time.

The events of SG-1’s arrival lead to the possible demise of all of the planet’s inhabitants, and the team’s own peril. O’Neill is able to request help from the Asgard high counsel via their beaming viewing system in the villages temple, but the Asgard counsel tells him they are prevented from helping, due to provisions in the “protected planets” treaty with the Goa’uld.

SG-1 must find their own way to save the planet, and its people on their own.

Episode Quotes
 
Jack: I have great confidence in you, Carter. Go on back to SGC and confuse Hammond.
 
Sam: Yes, sir, but I think we can now increse that estimate to 1%.
 
Jack: It's your call, General. I only understand about 1% of what she says half the time...
 
Hammond: Have you considered other options?
Sam: The other option we considered turned out to be a one in a million shot, Sir. The rocket gives us better than 50/50 odds.
Hammond: Rockets don't exactly grow on trees, Major.
 
(The sun goes back to normal)
(Jack looks to Carter)
Jack: Am I having a stroke!?
 
Jack: I'm not asking you to change the course of their culture's development or anything - just fix the damned sun!
 
Sam: Sir, I've been thinking...
Jack: I'd be shocked if you ever stopped, Carter.
 
 
Episode Goofs
 
If they passed through the sun to get there, you'd think to get back they would have to in the least, past close to the sun. With all the problems with the sun, wouldn't it be likely they could hit a solar flare and end up back in time?
 
Solars flares are extremily rare when compared to the overall surface area of a star, as well as being relatively small. The chance of hitting one with no foreknowledge of where and when a flare would happen is probably at least 1,000:1. Perhaps even 1,000,000:1
 
Dr. McClarren (who provides the "super heavy element") should be well aware that an element may not be named after a living person.
