Stargate SG1 S3E9 - Incredulous for Nothing

It's time for Last Time On, the podcast for everyone who wants to watch all of that prestige television, but who has time for that? Our hosts don't, so they take the randomized highway down your favorite shows they haven't seen, and try to guess what happened Last Time On!

Join us as Ben, Victor, and Xhafer jump to a planet they just called on teams instead of asking if it was cool if they called in a message first. Ben reminds us that a big enough boom will beat math, Victor has a tough time at the doctor, and Xhafer only trusts 90% of dentists.

Transcript
Xhafer:

Hello, and welcome to last time on this is the podcast for people who want

2

:

to watch all of this prestige television,

but who's got time for all of this.

3

:

Ben: You know I don't.

4

:

Victor: Time is an illusion

5

:

Xhafer: I'm Jafar

6

:

Ben: I'm Ben.

7

:

Okay.

8

:

Victor: Victor

9

:

Xhafer: and we're talking Stargate SG one.

10

:

Victor: and we are the Goon Squad.

11

:

Yeah.

12

:

Whoo.

13

:

Goon Squad.

14

:

Xhafer: We are, this is episode five.

15

:

We're, we're watching it's season

three, episode 19 new ground, but

16

:

before we get to that in what has

become a weird tradition for me and

17

:

podcasting sci fi TV shows, there are

rumors of a reboot happening soon.

18

:

Victor: Yes, I was,

19

:

Ben: I, I, I'm taking

full credit for this.

20

:

This is, this is because of us.

21

:

Victor: Yeah.

22

:

I've been meaning to bring this up when

I was doing research before our first

23

:

episode of of last time on I've came

across something from Deadline Hollywood

24

:

saying that Stargate is in the works for

a reboot, and this was pretty recent.

25

:

Let me pull that up, I think

it was earlier this year.

26

:

Um, it's, there's no details

on it, but yeah, Deadline

27

:

Hollywood dated April 14th, 2023.

28

:

Um, it basically says that due to the

fact that Amazon spent eight and a

29

:

half billion dollars acquiring MGM,

Uh, that they're in the works of

30

:

rebooting pretty much all of MGM's IPs.

31

:

Which, I mean, makes sense.

32

:

If they spend that much money acquiring

MGM, they're going to want to make

33

:

some money off their purchase.

34

:

Uh, so it just says Stargate.

35

:

It doesn't say specifically SG 1.

36

:

But among the titles listed there, they

specifically listed Stargate along with

37

:

Robocop, Legally Blonde, and Barbershop.

38

:

Ha ha, that are in development.

39

:

Uh, it doesn't say if it's going

to be more movies, or if it's

40

:

going to be a TV series, or what.

41

:

But Stargate Something is

currently in development right

42

:

now over at Amazon Studios.

43

:

So, I thought it might

44

:

Ben: if anything comes of it.

45

:

Victor: yeah.

46

:

Well, I mean, it makes sense

logically that they would.

47

:

I mean, you don't spend that much

money and just let it sit on a shelf.

48

:

So, they got to do something with it.

49

:

I don't care if it's a

video game or whatever.

50

:

You know, just do I'm

looking forward to it.

51

:

But, uh, anyway, I thought it might

be fun to do kind of like what, uh,

52

:

what you guys do on the Who Are You

podcast and do a little fan casting.

53

:

Like, who do you think would

be ideal in the reboot?

54

:

Let's just say they're doing SG 1.

55

:

Who, uh, like, let's go around

the table and who would you pick?

56

:

Who would you, who is your actor

for, uh, the new Colonel O'Neil?

57

:

Jaffer?

58

:

Xhafer: uh, this is so easy.

59

:

is like, uh, Listener, this, this idea

was pitched to Ben and I maybe 10 minutes

60

:

ago and both Ben and I immediately

were like, I have the perfect recast.

61

:

I'm curious to know if

it's the same person.

62

:

We'll see.

63

:

It'd be really funny if it is,

64

:

Ben: I, I'm, I'm kind of worried

that you sniped out my same thing.

65

:

Ooooooh.

66

:

Xhafer: uh, cause if I'm going

to recast Colonel O'Neill,

67

:

I need someone who can do.

68

:

a bit of a prankster, but still

be a serious military person.

69

:

Victor: Hmm.

70

:

Xhafer: And there is

someone who comes to mind.

71

:

Very vividly when I think of that

specifically in a sci fi setting

72

:

and it's Katie Sackhoff is,

73

:

Victor: Ooh.

74

:

That's a, that's a controversial choice.

75

:

I mean, it's not, but, but it

76

:

Xhafer: Katie Sackhoff get canceled?

77

:

I don't know.

78

:

I don't

79

:

Victor: No, no, I

80

:

Xhafer: I'm terrible at celebrity.

81

:

Victor: it'll piss

82

:

Ben: No, you're making it woke now.

83

:

O'Neil's a man.

84

:

Victor: There, there, there will

85

:

Ben: ever named O'Neil

has been a man forever.

86

:

Victor: There will be so many YouTube

videos by angry basement dwellers.

87

:

Ben: My new office is upstairs.

88

:

I'm not a basement dweller anymore.

89

:

There's a window.

90

:

Victor: Score.

91

:

Xhafer: Uh, yeah, no, I think

Katie Sackhoff's a great choice.

92

:

Victor: That is a good choice.

93

:

Xhafer: I'm not too concerned about

the gender change, mostly because in

94

:

our limited experience with O'Neill,

I don't think there's anything

95

:

distinctly male about his character.

96

:

Uh, I mean, that's the only time

I ever worry about that stuff.

97

:

Like if you, if a character is not

distinctly male or distinctly female,

98

:

like there it's not, there's nothing

crucial to their story that involves

99

:

their gender, then why does it matter

what gender they are in a recast?

100

:

It doesn't.

101

:

Uh, so

102

:

Ben: can be sad that her son died.

103

:

Xhafer: yeah.

104

:

Ben: Replaces him with a weird alien kid.

105

:

Yeah

106

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

107

:

Victor: she could have a, she

could be just like Jack O'Neil.

108

:

Jacqueline O'Neil.

109

:

Ooh,

110

:

Xhafer: yeah, that's it.

111

:

Got

112

:

Victor: And she could, she could

have a, she could have a spouse.

113

:

She could have a wife

that we never hear from.

114

:

We mentioned once and

then never see again.

115

:

Xhafer: Yeah, I'm here for it.

116

:

Victor: That'd be awesome.

117

:

Xhafer: So, Ben, was that your pick?

118

:

Ben: no

119

:

Xhafer: Fantastic!

120

:

Ha

121

:

Ben: you see and this is I actually I

was worried about this And I actually

122

:

have I I had a backup pick in case you

picked my pick because Uh, as Ja'far

123

:

knows from our previous podcast, Draft

the Universe, where we would pick five

124

:

things from a random topic, I would

always have a list of 15 things in case

125

:

every one of, like, every one of my two

other co hosts choices were on my list.

126

:

Victor: Ben, you're the kind of guy

who overpacks on a trip, don't you?

127

:

Ben: oh, absolutely.

128

:

Uh, I'm gonna be there for, for

three days while I need to have

129

:

at least seven pairs of socks.

130

:

Uh So, the thing we need

for our Colonel O'Neil.

131

:

Maybe, maybe we've got somebody

who's, you know, resourceful.

132

:

Somebody you can count on, that

if they end up on an alien planet,

133

:

without a whole lot of resources,

they can still get the job done.

134

:

need a MacGyver.

135

:

Victor: Oh

136

:

Ben: So Lucas Till is my pick.

137

:

Victor: Is that the new MacGyver?

138

:

Ben: That is the new MacGyver,

which, if you didn't know,

139

:

Victor: fuck.

140

:

I love it.

141

:

Ben: there was a new MacGyver,

there was a new MacGyver show.

142

:

It ran for almost a hundred episodes.

143

:

Victor: No way.

144

:

Ben: Yeah, so, I

145

:

Xhafer: more than the original MacGyver?

146

:

Ben: I don't

147

:

Victor: No, I don't think so.

148

:

I think that thing went on forever.

149

:

Yeah.

150

:

Xhafer: a huge MacGyver fan.

151

:

And I remember she had, she recorded

VHSs of, she had a record, like a

152

:

hand recorded VHS of every episode.

153

:

She took meticulous notes.

154

:

On every episode of MacGyver,

155

:

Victor: Oh, that is hardcore.

156

:

Xhafer: filled with like

plot stuff and everything.

157

:

Yeah.

158

:

Ben: original MacGyver

went for 139 episodes.

159

:

So, all, like, about

an extra season or so.

160

:

Xhafer: Okay.

161

:

Ben: not bad, yeah.

162

:

The thing about, uh, Luke is

still a little too young to

163

:

be our actual Colonel O'Neil.

164

:

but, it would be a fun choice.

165

:

I thought it would be, an inspired pick.

166

:

If I'm going for who I actually,

like, in my mind thinking, Alright,

167

:

who can play grizzled, you know,

I've seen things military veteran,

168

:

but also can crack a joke, can, uh,

get down with the goofy, Eric Bana.

169

:

Victor: That would be, that would be good.

170

:

Ben: Yeah, uh,

171

:

Victor: him as, um, as a Romulan.

172

:

Ben: he was, he was great, uh, in

Star Trek:

173

:

like, really, like, he's in one of my

favorite war films, Black Hawk Down,

174

:

uh, but then I've also, I've also seen

him in things like Funny People, uh,

175

:

where he's actually really, really

funny in a movie that's not very funny.

176

:

But that's not the point.

177

:

It's, it's, it's a movie

about funny people.

178

:

It is not a funny movie.

179

:

It's a, I love that movie.

180

:

Uh, as, as somebody who did stand up

for a while, I'm just like, oh yeah,

181

:

I know this, like, we're all cracking

jokes because we're dead inside.

182

:

Uh, yeah, so I think Eric Bana,

right about in that right age range,

183

:

Xhafer: Mm hmm.

184

:

Ben: handle it.

185

:

Victor: See, this is how I know I'm in

the presence of podcasting professionals.

186

:

Because you guys, I mean,

yeah, I gave you guys like 10

187

:

minutes notice about this idea.

188

:

And you, you fucking just, wow.

189

:

You milked it in that time.

190

:

I got nothing.

191

:

I just say Oscar Isaac over here.

192

:

That's all I got.

193

:

Xhafer: I mean, I'd watch Oscar Isaac do.

194

:

Well, I have to say almost anything

because I didn't finish Moon Knight, but

195

:

Victor: that, I couldn't finish it either.

196

:

It was kind of boring,

197

:

Ben: Oh, I loved it.

198

:

I, I finished it.

199

:

Yeah.

200

:

Victor: Yeah, but yeah, uh,

wow, I, hmm, how do I follow up?

201

:

Heh heh heh.

202

:

Uh, I, I just

203

:

Xhafer: with a segue.

204

:

Victor: yeah.

205

:

Well, no, I just think

he's got excellent range.

206

:

, he was in, , uh, I think

it's called Ex Machina?

207

:

I think that was the name of it?

208

:

And he played a VERY different character

from, Poe Dameron or, uh, not Duncan

209

:

Idaho, fuckin Dune guy, Leo Atreides, and

he's, man, he's just got such good range.

210

:

And plus, I, I think it was such

a, such a crime, you know, spoiler

211

:

alert for Dune, that, you know, he

dies in the, in the first movie.

212

:

Like, I would have loved to seen

more of Oscar Isaac on screen.

213

:

I don't know, maybe they'll

do something different

214

:

Xhafer: I think you will.

215

:

If I'm remembering.

216

:

I believe there's some flashbacky stuff.

217

:

Victor: Yeah, it'll be flashbacks if they

218

:

Ben: I was

219

:

Xhafer: that we're coming up on

220

:

Ben: somebody else, I won't

spoil it, somebody in the Dune

221

:

universe, gets cloned a lot.

222

:

Spoilers.

223

:

Ben: Um, but it's not him.

224

:

I

225

:

Victor: Yeah, you don't, yeah, if

you're a movie studio, you don't pay

226

:

the money to have that guy and just

have to have him die in the first, you

227

:

know, first half of your story arc.

228

:

Xhafer: yeah, he's no true.

229

:

Barrymore.

230

:

Ben: you do.

231

:

Hey, I only, we only have to pay

you to be out of here for two weeks.

232

:

Okay, great.

233

:

Victor: Or if you can only

afford, um, uh, James Earl

234

:

Jones voice, not his actual face

235

:

Ben: we're gonna transition to this, to

talk about the episode, because I'm mad.

236

:

gonna get my first, we're gonna get

my first gator hater point here.

237

:

Xhafer: Oh, we can do that.

238

:

Ben: I'm doing it!

239

:

Victor: He's doing it.

240

:

Ben: Okay, this, what

is this episode called?

241

:

Victor: Uh, new ground, right?

242

:

Yeah, new

243

:

Ben: No, Higher Ground.

244

:

This episode is called Higher Ground.

245

:

And we open in Media Dig.

246

:

are literally in a hole.

247

:

And part of the episode, they

dig deeper into the hole.

248

:

And find more stuff down.

249

:

We literally go lower as

the episode continues.

250

:

Victor: it's, it's, it's

actually called New Ground.

251

:

I'm looking at

252

:

Xhafer: It's new ground.

253

:

Yeah,

254

:

Ben: Oh, you said higher

ground when I wrote it down.

255

:

God, okay, well now I'm

incredulous for nothing.

256

:

will die on any hill.

257

:

Victor: Well, I mean, I guess it

works because in order to have

258

:

new ground, you're not going to

259

:

Ben: Yeah, they dug it out and

now they're finding new ground.

260

:

Okay,

261

:

Victor: okay.

262

:

Ben: I guess it's alright.

263

:

Xhafer: No, it's old ground.

264

:

It's distinctly old ground.

265

:

That's why there's old stuff in it.

266

:

Victor: yeah, that's old ground.

267

:

So if you want new ground, you got

to put it on top of the old ground.

268

:

So it technically

269

:

Xhafer: get some topsoil, lay

270

:

Victor: Your rage is justified,

271

:

Xhafer: raised bed.

272

:

All right, we got season

three, episode 19, new ground.

273

:

This is our fifth or sixth episode

of Stargate that we've watched.

274

:

If you're tuning in for the first time.

275

:

Bless your heart.

276

:

Uh, we are a podcast that picks a

show that none of us have ever seen.

277

:

Watch the pilot, roll some dice, skip

a ton of episodes, watch that next one,

278

:

and try to guess what happened in the

previous episodes while watching the

279

:

one that we've mysteriously landed upon.

280

:

Uh, we play a couple of games with this.

281

:

We have our last times on where our

host will explain things that happened.

282

:

They feel in a previous episode, we have

our wahapa hers, which are a offensive.

283

:

Last time on where a host will force

another host to explain things.

284

:

And then we have our,

let's get weird with it.

285

:

We're all hosts have to make a off

the cuff, most ridiculous suggestion.

286

:

They can think of to explain something.

287

:

We open on some humans unearthing

a Stargate and we find SG1

288

:

is getting their first hit.

289

:

On the cold dialing program,

which was mentioned in the pilot.

290

:

Victor: it was, wasn't it?

291

:

Yeah,

292

:

Ben: it's taken three years.

293

:

Victor: Yeah.

294

:

Ben: makes me really mad.

295

:

Because it means that,.

296

:

Major Carter invented the robo dialer.

297

:

Howdy de Greetings, friend.

298

:

Dang!

299

:

Ben: She is why I'm getting all these

awful texts, uh, trying to sign me up

300

:

for Medicaid, and telling me about,

uh, my car's extended warranty.

301

:

Victor: God, you get texts, they won't

stop with the phone calls with me, and

302

:

I got a robot voice if I pick it up.

303

:

It's the worst, and they

always leave messages.

304

:

I get like six per day.

305

:

Ah!

306

:

Damn you, Carter!

307

:

Ben: thank you, Major Carter.

308

:

Jerk.

309

:

Heh heh heh heh heh.

310

:

Should've joined NASA.

311

:

Xhafer: the stargate opens and they send

the robot through, uh, and they talk to

312

:

Victor: Fred's back!

313

:

Ben: No, cause this isn't Fred.

314

:

Victor: That's Fred, man.

315

:

That

316

:

Xhafer: it or something.

317

:

Victor: No, it's a Malp, but Fred is

a Malp, but Malp, Fred got an upgrade.

318

:

That's what I'm going with.

319

:

That's what happened.

320

:

That's what happened to

321

:

Ben: I'm gonna go last time on.

322

:

Fred got blown up.

323

:

Victor: No, he didn't!

324

:

No!

325

:

No, you will not Kowalski Fred!

326

:

Xhafer: last time on, not only did

Fred get blown up, Fred heroically

327

:

sacrificed himself with a tactical nuke.

328

:

Victor: Oh, I can, I can get behind that.

329

:

Oh, was, was Fred the one that

blew up Apophis's pyramid ship?

330

:

I can get down with

331

:

Xhafer: yeah.

332

:

Heh

333

:

Ben: Fred, Fred is the one who

saved our, our, our crew, uh,

334

:

from the season two finale.

335

:

Uh, Teal'c and Fred saved the day.

336

:

Heh heh heh heh heh.

337

:

Victor: God.

338

:

That would be

339

:

Ben: they send our new, new Fred,

what's, uh, what do they call it?

340

:

I'm,

341

:

Victor: It's, call it a

malt, I think it's me, me.

342

:

Mechanical appliance, uh, laundry

343

:

Ben: heh heh heh.

344

:

They end up talking to these,

archaeologists who dug out the gate.

345

:

We've got, Nian, who's, sideburns.

346

:

He's mostly sideburns.

347

:

And, his, , lady archaeologist

companion, uh, Malon.

348

:

And they just send the robot through

and just like, Hey, how's it going?

349

:

Uh,

350

:

Victor: Which by the way, in the opening,

there were three of them originally.

351

:

Ben: yeah, and one of

352

:

Victor: There was a third person

there that just disappeared.

353

:

I'm wondering if, what the hell.

354

:

I want to know what happened

to the third person.

355

:

Xhafer: They say to avoid

the bloom of the Stargate.

356

:

duck, dip, dive, and dodge.

357

:

Victor: That's what I

thought originally happened,

358

:

Xhafer: Maybe they got bloomed?

359

:

I don't know if that's a

thing that eats people.

360

:

I assume that's what happens.

361

:

Victor: can't be good if you stand in

that, in the path of that thing, so

362

:

Xhafer: nyan is talking, but

he's like, Oh, the legends must

363

:

be true of the ancients and, our

people coming from other worlds.

364

:

Oh, no.

365

:

And we hear about the war between the

Bedrosians, who are now definitively

366

:

proven wrong and the Atrakans who

are now definitively proven right.

367

:

Victor: The optometrists.

368

:

Yeah.

369

:

Ben: Ophthalmologists are

their, are their leaders.

370

:

, Malon is like, Oh hell no,

and she just runs away.

371

:

Victor: Yeah, she, she narcs.

372

:

Dude, what the hell, dude?

373

:

Malin is a snitch.

374

:

That's her, that's her role

in this entire episode.

375

:

Xhafer: the Bedrosians arrive and they are

significantly more advanced than expected.

376

:

Victor: And, yeah, I thought it was

interesting that Malon runs off, right,

377

:

Xhafer: Mm hmm.

378

:

Victor: I, I just have to say for

the record here, she must be the

379

:

Bedrosian, uh, track and field cross

country star because she ran, it was

380

:

what, like, like three minutes in

between the time that, uh, that she

381

:

ran off and then they come back and

reinforcements and fucking hovercraft.

382

:

They have to fly over, like,

how far did she run that

383

:

Ben: Oh, yeah.

384

:

Victor: they have to come back

in, in fucking spaceships?

385

:

Xhafer: and they land and

they've got these guns.

386

:

If Trek has dustbusters,

these are Dyson textile irons.

387

:

These

388

:

Ben: Oh, yeah, they look like irons.

389

:

Xhafer: heh heh heh.

390

:

Ben: Uh, one thing I did appreciate

in this episode, that it is something

391

:

that has always bugged me about a

lot of sci fi, Trek in particular.

392

:

Nyan's, the sideburns archaeologist starts

explaining like, Okay, so, You being

393

:

here is weird, because you've not only

proved I'm on the wrong side of a war,

394

:

but also, my god might not exist, uh, uh,

and I'm trying to roll with that as best

395

:

as I can, but it's also kind of like,

hitting me deep, uh, but you are here on

396

:

the continent of Bedrosia, where we think

we came from, and that's why we're the

397

:

Bedrosians, and I'm just like, hey, You If

this was Star Trek, they would have just

398

:

called it, The Southeastern Continent.

399

:

Like, they actually named

the continent like people do.

400

:

Heh heh heh heh heh.

401

:

Heh

402

:

Victor: Yeah, every, every planet, uh, is

just unified in most sci fi things, which

403

:

is just, I feel, is very unrealistic.

404

:

Xhafer: Yeah,

405

:

Victor: Mm

406

:

Xhafer: we cut over to Teal'c stalking

in some brush and I paused here like as

407

:

soon as we see him and we see him watch

the dude I pause because I'm so excited.

408

:

I'm all like, are we going to get

reverse predator episode with Teal'c

409

:

You're bleeding, man.

410

:

I ain't got time to bleed.

411

:

Victor: That would have been, that

would have been such a good episode.

412

:

Xhafer: bitches.

413

:

This whole episode just taking

people out from the brush and

414

:

just from his perspective.

415

:

Oh, this is going to be so good.

416

:

I'm so excited for this.

417

:

I unpause and he gets got immediately.

418

:

Victor: It shot right in the face.

419

:

Ben: Yeah, Teal shoots a guy and

it somehow blows up in his face.

420

:

Uh, and he is down.

421

:

Just some nasty burns like,

dead center in his face.

422

:

Xhafer: Yeah, he simos

423

:

Ben: and the rest of our, and the rest

of our SG 1 crew are captured, with,

424

:

containment walls and knocked out.

425

:

And Malon shows up and

he's like, She, see?

426

:

Those are the guys.

427

:

And they're like, go back to base.

428

:

You're not in this episode anymore.

429

:

Heh heh heh heh.

430

:

Xhafer: The Bedrosian leader won't

let them fire up the Stargate.

431

:

He believes them to

either be full of shit.

432

:

Or refuses to let anyone believe

about the Stargate he sets up

433

:

quarantine, whether or not he actually

thinks this is, he believes them.

434

:

It's kind of ambiguous.

435

:

He definitely doesn't want to believe them

436

:

Victor: Yeah, I, this episode deals with,

by the end of it, I liked it, but at first

437

:

I did not like it because it deals with

what I hate most about humanity and that

438

:

is the human nature to refuse to be wrong.

439

:

Like even when you have definitive

proof in front of you, it's a

440

:

typical human nature to just be,

um, what's the word I'm looking for?

441

:

More and more.

442

:

Xhafer: obstinate.

443

:

Victor: Those are both great words.

444

:

Yeah, probably better than what I

was thinking of just to be Stubbornly

445

:

Ben: A jerk.

446

:

Victor: just and yeah, and just be a

dick and just dig in even though you know

447

:

You're wrong You guys are on Facebook you

run into this shit all the time people

448

:

who are fucking wrong and you prove them

wrong and they Refuse to be wrong and

449

:

they just drop and that's what this entire

episode is about on top of a religious

450

:

thing Which makes it even worse for me?

451

:

Ah So irritated

452

:

Ben: And I'm sorry to go to this well

again, uh, but as a religion major,

453

:

the one thing I did feel about this

was just like, man, you just happened

454

:

to have a civil war with two religions

where there is like something you can

455

:

absolutely non metaphysically prove,

like, hey, we found a space travel gate,

456

:

uh, or we can find like existence of

like, Hey, here's 3, 000 year old bones.

457

:

Boom!

458

:

I proved we existed here more than 2, 000

years ago, um, and therefore I am right.

459

:

Victor: of worms.

460

:

Ben: Yeah, it's, it's not like, , you

know, I can walk around and be like, Hey,

461

:

I've, I've, I've found, uh, you know,

this flying spaghetti monster over here.

462

:

And so it is, uh, it was definitely

like, I understood what the writers were

463

:

going for, but I was also, it's, it's a

little writerly convenient to be, Hey,

464

:

we just happen to have a religion fragile

enough that you finding a Stargate would

465

:

like, completely destroy everything.

466

:

Victor: hmm.

467

:

Yeah.

468

:

Yeah.

469

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

470

:

So the Bedrosian military here resumes

digging as we find out that, uh.

471

:

Teal'c is alive, he's

just very badly burned.

472

:

Victor: Before we get to that,

though, they, they take some blood

473

:

samples from, from all three of

474

:

Xhafer: Yes, that'll, yeah,

that'll come up in a minute, uh,

475

:

Ben: is also one of those funny things

about, about, , Stargate is that humans

476

:

are like the cockroaches of the galaxy.

477

:

We are just everywhere.

478

:

Um, and so they take this as

proof as like, you guys are human.

479

:

So you must be, uh, if you're

not, uh, Bedrosian, you must be

480

:

optricians trying to trick us.

481

:

Uh, you can't be from a different planet.

482

:

And so it's one of those things

where it's with the technology

483

:

we see these people have they are

probably a hundred years from being

484

:

out there in space and being like.

485

:

Aw, man, humans are freakin everywhere.

486

:

Heh heh heh heh.

487

:

Xhafer: yeah,

488

:

Victor: uh, before, before we do move

on, though, one thing I wanted to address

489

:

is like, it's one of the very first

thing, uh, Daniel Jackson, before they

490

:

go through the gate, Daniel Jackson

wants to volunteer to go through.

491

:

And Colonel O'Neill is kind of like,

uh, Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up, hold up.

492

:

We don't see a DHD.

493

:

And they, they scan the robot around and

they're like, does anybody see a DHD?

494

:

So, what I want to ask is,

Ben, what happened here?

495

:

What the hell happened?

496

:

But I got the band!

497

:

Victor: What's a DHD?

498

:

Ben: We know what a DHD is.

499

:

I don't know what the acronym stands for.

500

:

It is the panel.

501

:

Uh,

502

:

Victor: Give it an acronym.

503

:

What's the

504

:

Ben: okay, so the acronym is,

uh, It is the Dial Home Dialer.

505

:

O'Neal came up with it just to piss

Dan Jackson and, uh, Major Carter off.

506

:

Uh, um, just use the dial

home dialer and it just stuck.

507

:

Victor: That's probably

just exactly it too.

508

:

Ben: It feels, it feels right.

509

:

It's like, is that the name?

510

:

Like Hammond is back there.

511

:

Like, is that the name

you're going to call it?

512

:

And he's like, Yes it is.

513

:

Yes it is General.

514

:

Heh heh heh heh

515

:

Victor: Well, what the hell?

516

:

Ben: heh heh Heh.

517

:

Dammit Bobby!

518

:

Heh heh heh heh heh heh.

519

:

Victor: But, but he also tells

them to, uh, just in case, bring

520

:

a Naquda reactor with them.

521

:

Xhafer: yeah, that's got to be a gift

from someone, maybe the turtle people from

522

:

a couple episodes ago, or the talk raw,

523

:

Victor: The, uh, what was it?

524

:

I want, I hope it was the,

the, the furlings that was,

525

:

Ben: haven't met the furlings yet.

526

:

Heh

527

:

Victor: Yeah.

528

:

I hope it's them

529

:

Xhafer: they

530

:

Victor: I hope they're furry.

531

:

I hope they're little Ewoks.

532

:

Anyway, sorry about that.

533

:

I wrote that down but uh, yeah,

534

:

Ben: I wrote it down as

well, so good calling it out.

535

:

Victor: Alright!

536

:

Xhafer: So the DNA gets analyzed and they

do say that they're a 97 percent match.

537

:

Yeah.

538

:

Victor: they've got artificial gravity,

they've got force fields, they've got

539

:

magic iron sticks that shoot lightning

bolts, but the only way that they have

540

:

a, they can take blood is uh, with the

big fucking needle jammed in your neck.

541

:

That's how I feel about modern technology.

542

:

Whenever I have to go to the doctor and

I get a prostate exam, it's like, wow,

543

:

really with all the technology we have

in the world today, the only way that

544

:

you have to check that is by doing that.

545

:

Ben: yeah this

546

:

Victor: really necessary?

547

:

Ben: This feels more amateur

state than pro state.

548

:

Victor: There's your TMI for the episode.

549

:

Or

550

:

Ben: we find out that the Bedrosians,

Uh, they believe in, uh, Nephritim.

551

:

Uh, And,

552

:

Victor: was it the blue lotus

553

:

Ben: Yeah, and Dan Jackson's just

like Like, yeah, we know that.

554

:

It's Egyptian mythology.

555

:

And I'm like, Ooh, we're

back to Egyptian mythology.

556

:

Yay.

557

:

Uh, sorry.

558

:

Uh, sorry.

559

:

Jaffer in your hopes that we end up on,

you know, any other pantheon planet.

560

:

Um,

561

:

Victor: or Yeah.

562

:

Ben: it's not, it's not like, Oh

man, uh, Maui said we came from here.

563

:

What can I say except, you're welcome

564

:

Ben: and it's like, hey,

we're expanding our horizons.

565

:

Xhafer: While they're talking, uh,

the commander presses the issue.

566

:

The truth is that they are right,

regardless of anything else.

567

:

Current plan, kill them all!

568

:

Ben: Make him confess

or just blow it all up.

569

:

Uh, and we also cut back

to, uh, Nian and Teal'c.

570

:

And Teal'c is just like,

we must go rescue them.

571

:

And he's like, you're blind, dude.

572

:

Uh, yeah, we find out that,

573

:

Victor: the uh, Sorry, I was gonna

say apparently the, the, Bedrosian

574

:

weapons are, are powered by Pink Eye.

575

:

Cause that's what he did.

576

:

Xhafer: that's, Pink Eye's a bad time.

577

:

You don't want Pink Eye.

578

:

Ben: Well,

579

:

because the thing is, you saw

how pointy, like, the ends of

580

:

their weapons look like irons.

581

:

You know, you just reach back there,

do a little bit of scratch, and

582

:

then, oh, no, you're given pink eye.

583

:

It's doing poison damage.

584

:

Victor: Oh, gross.

585

:

That's what happened.

586

:

The goon didn't didn't wash his

weapon after shooting, before he

587

:

shot Teal in the face with it.

588

:

Yeah,

589

:

Ben: appreciate, like,

Teal'c is a cool badass.

590

:

He is not a cool badass on the level

of, like, some other sci fi aliens

591

:

where it's just like, Even without

my eyes, I can take on twelve guards.

592

:

Um, I am just so much

cooler and so much better.

593

:

And it's like, why, why do we

need the human characters at all?

594

:

Teal'c is ready to go in, but he

could not actually take out these,

595

:

twenty goons and save his friends.

596

:

And so Nian is absolutely right, like,

Dude, just chill out for a minute.

597

:

I can go get some, stuff to help you.

598

:

, and, he goes to, to try and get some

supplies, and Teal knocks himself out

599

:

running into a wall during a bat attack.

600

:

Victor: what was the point of those bats?

601

:

Like, that's, like, I wrote

that down as like, why, why, why

602

:

are there bats in this episode?

603

:

Hahaha.

604

:

Xhafer: They're not even bats.

605

:

They're like little dragons.

606

:

If you look at them.

607

:

Victor: Yeah.

608

:

Ben: I can tell you, this is

Teal'c's origin story, for when he

609

:

becomes Dragon Man, and he becomes

610

:

Victor: dragon man.

611

:

Ben: he becomes the terror

that flaps in the night,

612

:

call the cops Darkwing

Duck Let's get dangerous

613

:

,

Ben: coming after all of the ghouls.

614

:

Victor: Oh, that's, oh man,

that would have been awesome.

615

:

He emerges from the, from the

bat cave, you know, with a, with

616

:

a costume and rescues the team.

617

:

And yeah, it goes on to

fight crime back on Earth.

618

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

619

:

Before Nyan leaves, he's really

sure that he can convince his fellow

620

:

academics that they were wrong here.

621

:

1 in dentists, doesn't

approve of toothpaste, right?

622

:

Like, is Nyan the 9 or the 1?

623

:

That's, whenever I hear a single

scientist make a claim, that's

624

:

the question I always ask myself.

625

:

Ben: see, my thought here is, and

I think I'm with Nian on this one,

626

:

where, okay, O'Neal, Carter, Danjacks,

the Stargate itself, There are always

627

:

going to be people who are like,

The Stargate was an inside job.

628

:

Uh,

629

:

Xhafer: Mm hmm

630

:

Ben: Uh, Uh, this isn't real.

631

:

Teal'c is an alien.

632

:

Uh, yes.

633

:

He is, he is, by every metric, not human.

634

:

He's got a belly pouch.

635

:

Uh, Um, and so, Uh, for plenty

636

:

Victor: the Golden Funnel Cake on his

forehead that shows he's an alien.

637

:

Yup.

638

:

Ben: Yeah, for plenty of people, they

could rationalize a way to say like,

639

:

Hey, the Optricans, they believe this?

640

:

They have gone to extreme

lengths to prove it.

641

:

Okay, here's an alien.

642

:

Um, you know what, now, now I,

I see that I'm like taking 12

643

:

steps when one step will do.

644

:

even if, uh, even if not everybody

believes, there will be enough people

645

:

who are just like, Okay, alien.

646

:

Uh, that it'll have a conversation.

647

:

Xhafer: Yeah,

648

:

Victor: I'm trying to think of something

like that, what would be a good metaphor.

649

:

What would be a deeply held belief of

mine that would shatter I guess if I

650

:

went to space and I actually saw the

Earth was flat, I'd be really pissed.

651

:

And be like, No!

652

:

No!

653

:

Xhafer: I mean

654

:

Ben: this giant ice wall?

655

:

Victor: Yeah.

656

:

The assholes were right!

657

:

Xhafer: How was science this wrong?

658

:

Victor: Yeah.

659

:

Yeah.

660

:

Xhafer: math?

661

:

And the answer is a

shit ton of rocket fuel

662

:

Ben: Yes, big enough boom beats math.

663

:

Heh heh heh.

664

:

Uh, we get back to

665

:

Xhafer: and they are in some real eyes

wide shut level kink kennels here.

666

:

Ben: Yes, they are they are

in like, legit dog kennels.

667

:

And,

668

:

Victor: dog kennels at sea, it

669

:

Ben: this actually makes me kind of mad.

670

:

Uh, because, The bad guy leader

is trying to interrogate them.

671

:

And, every time O'Neal is an asshole, he

shocks Dan Jackson, and O'Neal keeps doing

672

:

it, and he keeps shocking, , Dan Jackson,

and it's just like, O'Neal, stop it, man!

673

:

Xhafer: He don't give a fuck,

he's not getting shocked.

674

:

!

Call an ambulance!

675

:

But not for me!

676

:

Victor: Oh man.

677

:

Ben: He's like, you're, come on!

678

:

But yeah, he's trying to get them

to confess, and then, uh, finds

679

:

out that, just as he's about

to like, Start murdering them?

680

:

Hey!

681

:

Sir!

682

:

Come outside right now!

683

:

We found something!

684

:

And we found our, uh, our DHD.

685

:

Our dial home dialer.

686

:

Victor: Which, okay, this was a problem

for me in, in this episode because they

687

:

said that, uh, oh, they were digging here.

688

:

See what they were digging for?

689

:

Who was digging?

690

:

I think this was a but

they weren't digging there.

691

:

They were digging out the

gate from the wall.

692

:

That's what, yeah.

693

:

That's gotta be the thing.

694

:

I

695

:

Ben: a mound,

696

:

Xhafer: there was a little bit

where they had found the mound.

697

:

Yeah.

698

:

Ben: yeah, so there was a little

mound, uh, that prior to the excavation

699

:

had, had some, had some foliage.

700

:

He, he was on this, this grassy knoll.

701

:

Uh, and, uh, this is part of my

Optrican, uh, conspiracy theory.

702

:

Um, there was the third archaeologist

on the grassy knoll finding the DHT,

703

:

Xhafer: You know, thinking about it,

Ben, I think you are 75, 80 percent

704

:

right with the name of the DHD.

705

:

Although I

706

:

Ben: the dial home dialer.

707

:

Xhafer: I think it's dial home, Daniel.

708

:

Victor: Home Daniel!

709

:

Xhafer: I think, I think O'Neil said that

off the cuff, like dial home, Daniel.

710

:

And it just became the DHD

711

:

Victor: I love

712

:

Xhafer: always says that.

713

:

Victor: dial

714

:

Xhafer: dial his home, Daniel.

715

:

He says it every time.

716

:

So,

717

:

Victor: It's the dial home Daniel.

718

:

It's the, the Daniel home dialer.

719

:

Xhafer: uh,

720

:

Victor: Daniel home dialer.

721

:

That's what it is.

722

:

Yep.

723

:

DHD.

724

:

Perfect.

725

:

Xhafer: uh, Tealk has

a real rough go here.

726

:

Ben: Colonel O'Neal.

727

:

Xhafer: They keep, the military guys

keep looking at this pile of guns on

728

:

the table and never do anything with it.

729

:

And I was really hoping we'd

get some cracks about that

730

:

archaic rock throwing technology.

731

:

Victor: I was just going to say, they

seem to, I mean, practically, uh,

732

:

earth guns seem to work better than

most of the alien weapons we've, we've

733

:

run into so far with the exception

of that cool little snake phaser.

734

:

That, that thing's pretty fucking cool.

735

:

Uh, yeah, the sticks, like as soon

as, as soon as the Bedrosian showed

736

:

up and they have their own version

of the Jaffa sticks, I was just

737

:

like, how is it that every alien race

comes to the same conclusion that.

738

:

Xhafer: That lasers are cool?

739

:

Victor: No, but they put them on the

740

:

Xhafer: are cool!

741

:

Victor: Yeah, they are cool, but

why do they put them on sticks?

742

:

Like, like holding sticks, like,

like the same thing the Jaffa use.

743

:

Ben: Well, and it makes me mad because,

well, the snake, uh, the snake pistols

744

:

have ruined my, my overall They're

still running around with guns,

745

:

and everybody else has laser guns!

746

:

Uh, so,

747

:

Xhafer: asking about Teal'c.

748

:

The team keeps deflecting to the

science behind how the Stargate

749

:

works, hoping this will convince.

750

:

And Daniel just can't help himself

but tell the Zealot how his god

751

:

isn't real, everything is a lie,

and how he's a big ol dum dum.

752

:

So he gets the iron for this.

753

:

Ben: yes he does.

754

:

Uh, but then our stargate opens and

Hammond is just like, Hey, everybody okay?

755

:

What's going on?

756

:

And our commander knows

how to use a human radio.

757

:

And it's just like, We

control your people now!

758

:

We will not fall for your op trickin

759

:

Xhafer: Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no,

I'm, I am not worried about him looking

760

:

at that device and knowing how it

works because that's a walkie talkie.

761

:

It has three buttons.

762

:

It has up, down and a hold button.

763

:

Victor: but you don't know how many

764

:

people don't know that you

have to let go of the button

765

:

to hear the other person talk.

766

:

Seriously, it.

767

:

This is a problem.

768

:

I don't like to drop this piece of trivia

a lot because I don't wanna be that guy.

769

:

But yeah, 20 years in the Army, I've

met plenty of fucking privates who don't

770

:

know to let go of the fucking button.

771

:

Ben: I would've I would've

accepted that, Ja'far.

772

:

I would I would've I would've

accepted this, Ja'far.

773

:

If there was a 30 second scene of

just Hammond listening to the squelch.

774

:

Uh, heh

775

:

Victor: Like there was no way

alien man knows to let go of the

776

:

button to let the other guy talk

that ah Anyway, that was a trigger.

777

:

I didn't realize I had His

778

:

Xhafer: Uh,

779

:

Ben: who was gonna be

the first to do that.

780

:

Nine laughs.

781

:

Xhafer: Nyan Cat catches Teal'c

with his pants down, with his gowld.

782

:

Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh.

783

:

Victor: pouch fondling his worm And

the first thing he says was, Oh, I

784

:

didn't think you were coming back.

785

:

What the fuck was up with this?

786

:

Ben: so, apparently the his, his belly

worm is injured, and it has to heal itself

787

:

before it can heal him, and, uh, Nine is

like, How about some experimental surgery

788

:

with something made for different aliens?

789

:

Um, and Teal finally acquiesces.

790

:

And we get some, uh, eye lasers

791

:

But I am the leader of the X Men.

792

:

Oh, the leader, yeah, so great.

793

:

What, are you going to lead us

to the hospital after you Winked

794

:

at Rogue and took off her torso.

795

:

Xhafer: Mm

796

:

Victor: Yeah, the, the, uh,

the eye doctor in a box.

797

:

Ben: as somebody with

glasses, I would love

798

:

Xhafer: His vision does

start to return here.

799

:

Uh, Daniel refuses to give Teal'c

up as the Stargate chevrons lock in.

800

:

Uh, this is where General Hammered,

uh, tries reaching the team.

801

:

Uh, the Bedrosian commander responds.

802

:

Uh, they turn on the camera on the battle

bot and, uh, see the crew in cages.

803

:

Ben: this makes me so mad, because

like, they see the crew in cages,

804

:

and we see the, the, the, the, uh,

Dan Jackson's in there just like, No!

805

:

Stop it!

806

:

Stop it!

807

:

Stop what you're doing!

808

:

And Hammond's like, Move it around,

look around, pan over there,

809

:

and Jax is just like, Stupid!

810

:

Stupid!

811

:

It's like, what's that idiot doing?

812

:

Look around, drive around!

813

:

Victor: You know, I just

appreciate the fact that they,

814

:

they have this procedure in place.

815

:

Cause it was going to piss me off.

816

:

Like they, they, they send

the, it's, it's just a.

817

:

Standard procedure that

they send the Stargate team.

818

:

They open up the gate,

they send the team through.

819

:

If you, it's like, if you don't hear

back from them for a, for a little

820

:

while, you know, dial it up again.

821

:

I'm glad that they did this because

it's just one of those, one of those.

822

:

Things.

823

:

It's like, yeah, they're obviously in

trouble if you don't hear back from

824

:

them within a certain amount of time,

and they, I just wish they would have

825

:

sent, sent another drone through, to

be all just like, hey, uh, send, send a

826

:

drone with some guns, or at least like

a, like a arm with a baseball bat or

827

:

something, and be like, knock it off, give

us our people back, quit it, you know.

828

:

Heh

829

:

Ben: And what I appreciate here is,

our commander, he's not an idiot.

830

:

He sees something pushing on the

wall of the hut that they're in,

831

:

and he's like, Okay, we've captured

some very important people here.

832

:

Uh, even though we don't believe

their lies, something is going on.

833

:

And you know what we're not gonna do?

834

:

Keep them right here

where we captured them.

835

:

We're gonna send them

back to a bigger base.

836

:

We're not gonna dick around

and keep them here at this tiny

837

:

base on Mars for two weeks.

838

:

Well, you can't have a corned

beef sandwich for breakfast.

839

:

It would upset your stomach.

840

:

Corned beef sandwiches are for lunch.

841

:

Ben: As Vic pointed out, I do

appreciate that they have the.

842

:

Hey, uh, we haven't heard from our guys.

843

:

Uh, call them up and see what's going on.

844

:

Uh, and so I'm asking you guys, Why did

they develop this, uh, this procedure?

845

:

Xhafer: The procedure

to move them off site.

846

:

Ben: No, no, no, to, for Hammond to

call them back up and check on them.

847

:

Uh, Yeah, what shenanigans

did they get trapped in?

848

:

Xhafer: oh, uh,

849

:

Ben: uh, call us back?

850

:

Victor: I'm going to say that, uh, I'm

going to say that, uh, that Daniel Jackson

851

:

was all just like, Hey guys, hear me out.

852

:

What if, uh, what's, uh, what's

another Pantheon we haven't seen yet?

853

:

Ben: Um,

854

:

Xhafer: uh, the Greeks, they found

that there's, we are, we, we know

855

:

from our predictions and the DMT

labs that there is a Celtic planet

856

:

Victor: Uh, no, no, there's not

that we just had some people

857

:

Ben: There was a Greek planet.

858

:

Victor: There's a

859

:

Xhafer: planet.

860

:

Yeah.

861

:

Okay.

862

:

Ben: Planet Falafel.

863

:

Victor: romans.

864

:

Uh, Let's go with voodoo planet or yeah

That it was like hear me out hear me out

865

:

what if uh, What's the name of the actual?

866

:

I don't know Daniel jackson just decides.

867

:

Hey, there's there's another there's

more alien gods out there that we can

868

:

be allies with that'll help us fight

Uh, Apophis, and they go check him out,

869

:

but it's like Friday, in the afternoon,

it's almost, it's almost 5 o'clock, and

870

:

they're like, Daniel, come on, man, we

wanna go home, man, we wanna go, go hit

871

:

happy hour, you know, guys, we'll make it

quick, and the, so they, they dial it up,

872

:

team gets sent out, and it's a fucking

spider planet, and they get captured,

873

:

and spun up in a web, and stuck in little

web cocoons, meanwhile, the rest of the

874

:

SG 1 crew are back in Cheyenne Mountain.

875

:

Are all just like, yeah, alright,

well, you know, They don't need us.

876

:

They're fine, let's go clock out.

877

:

And they're stuck there on Spider Planet

for three days, Until Monday, when

878

:

they come back in and they're like,

Oh fuck, are those guys not back yet?

879

:

Uh,

880

:

Xhafer: All right.

881

:

I got a different answer for you.

882

:

So, what do we know about Showtime,

the TV station, in the 90s?

883

:

Victor: that's the only

place where you can

884

:

Xhafer: Needlessly horny!

885

:

Needlessly horny!

886

:

What do we know about sci fi shows

s, early:

887

:

Victor: What's

888

:

Xhafer: Needlessly horny!

889

:

We've got a Venn diagram here and

Stargate's in the center of it, and I

890

:

refuse to accept there is not a needlessly

horny episode of this show in its early

891

:

seasons back when it was on Showtime.

892

:

It had to have happened.

893

:

They were on planet Bordello or something.

894

:

Like, there was some weird shit.

895

:

Heh heh heh

896

:

Victor: planet,

897

:

Xhafer: heh.

898

:

Ben: They open up the gate,

Dan Jackson just comes back

899

:

and he's like, Half desiccated.

900

:

He's just like, I need

liquid, give me water.

901

:

Xhafer: Give me an IV

stat and three broads.

902

:

Anyways, uh, Teal'c and Nyan here are

making their way to the base, uh, when

903

:

they, uh, fire a shot at a transport,

uh, they miss causing it to land.

904

:

They get the guards, get on board.

905

:

And mount their rescue mission

by immediately crashing the ship.

906

:

Ben: Yeah,

907

:

Victor: That's an awesome plan.

908

:

Xhafer: Uh, this plan

actually goes pretty good.

909

:

Uh, for a, uh, not having

hit anyone with the shuttle.

910

:

Ben: yes, uh, I did appreciate, so

they crashed the shuttle, Nian runs

911

:

out and he's just like, There's a

guy out there in the woods and I just

912

:

barely escaped, please, please help me.

913

:

And, uh, then they immediately just

start shooting all these confused guys.

914

:

And Nian immediately shoots

two people and it's just like,

915

:

Welcome to the big leagues, Mr.

916

:

Archaeologist.

917

:

Victor: Yeah, I guess the

sticks are kinda user friendly.

918

:

You know, it

919

:

Ben: They also have a

fortunate stun setting, uh,

920

:

Xhafer: Uh, yep.

921

:

They make their way.

922

:

Um, O'Neill goes for Teal.

923

:

Uh, the commander gets Nian.

924

:

Uh, but he's carried through the

Stargate as more shuttles come in.

925

:

Uh, Dan, uh, they make

it through the Stargate.

926

:

Everyone makes it through the Stargate.

927

:

Ben: with one cool thing.

928

:

When they open it up, uh, back at,

uh, the SGC, uh, the, they're like,

929

:

Hey, somebody's opening a portal.

930

:

And now they've got two factor

authentication, it's like, Hey,

931

:

did we get a signal from SG one?

932

:

No, we did not close that.

933

:

Iris, close it right now.

934

:

I don't know what's coming

through, but it's gonna hit a wall.

935

:

Victor: Yeah, it's kind of like caller id

936

:

Ben: Yeah,

937

:

Victor: God do you remember the

time before we had caller id?

938

:

Good lord.

939

:

It's dark ages, man.

940

:

Heheheh.

941

:

Xhafer: like I had

caller ID in the mid 90s.

942

:

Victor: Yeah.

943

:

Eh, yeah.

944

:

Heheheh.

945

:

Did you, oh, only if you

had a cordless phone.

946

:

Heheheh.

947

:

Xhafer: No, we had a phone

that had an answering machine

948

:

built in and had caller ID.

949

:

Victor: Ah.

950

:

Oh, but was it a cassette or

was it, uh, or was it, remember,

951

:

did you have to change the tape?

952

:

You didn't, you didn't

have to change the tape.

953

:

Xhafer: I think it had tapes.

954

:

Victor: BRUH.

955

:

Ben: Now the important question,

did you record your own?

956

:

Family personalized voicemail message.

957

:

Xhafer: oh, a hundred percent.

958

:

And it was the Three

Stooges Hello, hello, hello

959

:

Hello.

960

:

Xhafer: with me, my mom, and my sister.

961

:

Ben: Uh, I find that highly offensive.

962

:

Xhafer: No, you don't!

963

:

Because you refuse to name your

son Lawrence Maurice Curley!

964

:

You don't get to get upset

when I do Three Stooges stuff!

965

:

You had the chance to name

your son Larry Moe Curley!

966

:

You chose not to!

967

:

I will not abide this!

968

:

Ben: It's my culture, I

can treat it how I wish.

969

:

Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh.

970

:

Um, one thing I will

sadly admit for a while.

971

:

Like, a few years?

972

:

Our voicemail message was,

The Grease theme song.

973

:

Victor: Oh, you, oh, you, oh.

974

:

Ben: Grease

975

:

Xhafer: grease is the

976

:

Ben: you heard?

977

:

And then my dad came, would come on

and say, Leave your word at the beep.

978

:

And I, I like, I did not want

my friends calling my house in

979

:

case we didn't pick up in time.

980

:

Heheheheheheh

981

:

Xhafer: High school Ben was not

giving out his number to girls.

982

:

Ben: No I mean, nobody wanted it anyway.

983

:

And I don't blame them.

984

:

Xhafer: I'm sure that's

empirically not true, Ben.

985

:

You were just unaware.

986

:

I promise.

987

:

Has, has someone who's driven next to

you, and honked and waved at you because

988

:

I've run into you on streets before,

and had you completely ignore me?

989

:

I promise, you missed the signs.

990

:

Victor: Oblivious Ben.

991

:

Xhafer: It's happened at least a

dozen times in my life, where I've

992

:

seen you on the road, and you did

not notice me back, despite me

993

:

honking my horn and waving at you.

994

:

Ben: Why's somebody honking?

995

:

Somebody must be doing something.

996

:

I'm not in a car, I don't know.

997

:

cut that person off.

998

:

It's not my problem.

999

:

Victor: Nice.

:

00:48:44,852 --> 00:48:45,252

Xhafer: All right.

:

00:48:45,272 --> 00:48:47,232

So this episode wraps up real quick.

:

00:48:47,452 --> 00:48:48,962

Everyone gets through the Stargate.

:

00:48:49,262 --> 00:48:52,372

Uh, Dan offers Nian a job

as his research assistant.

:

00:48:52,572 --> 00:48:55,752

Uh, once, uh, he's got all these

artifacts he's recovered and he

:

00:48:55,752 --> 00:48:57,362

has that time to catalog them.

:

00:48:57,622 --> 00:49:00,482

So theoretically Nian is going

to be a reoccurring character.

:

00:49:01,267 --> 00:49:03,597

Ben: He's, he's gonna be

running the trophy room.

:

00:49:03,657 --> 00:49:07,697

He's gonna see all of their trinkets

when they stole that guy's wallet.

:

00:49:08,207 --> 00:49:11,367

Victor: What, you know, my, my

immediate question I had when I, when

:

00:49:11,497 --> 00:49:16,217

this happened was, is, uh, is, is he

a reoccurring character or is this

:

00:49:16,247 --> 00:49:18,177

just, this just something they do

:

00:49:18,252 --> 00:49:20,772

Xhafer: that sounds like a

great prediction to make.

:

00:49:20,982 --> 00:49:24,452

But before we make those predictions,

we should roll some dice and

:

00:49:24,452 --> 00:49:25,712

see how far ahead we're going.

:

00:49:26,272 --> 00:49:29,012

Victor: Well, before we wrap

up this episode, I just want

:

00:49:29,012 --> 00:49:30,612

to say I appreciated this.

:

00:49:30,612 --> 00:49:35,472

Uh, I give this episode four out of five

Babylon's it's, uh, I didn't like it at

:

00:49:35,472 --> 00:49:41,492

first, but with the ending, with the, the

way that they just didn't do the typical.

:

00:49:42,512 --> 00:49:47,132

90s sci fi, um, you know, finger

wagging soap, soap boxing thing

:

00:49:47,132 --> 00:49:51,032

where they try to make the sides

reconcile their differences.

:

00:49:51,272 --> 00:49:52,822

They're just like, no, fuck this planet.

:

00:49:52,832 --> 00:49:55,162

We're coming home, shut

the gate, close the iris.

:

00:49:55,172 --> 00:49:56,562

We're not going back to that planet again.

:

00:49:56,562 --> 00:49:57,422

Those guys are dicks.

:

00:49:58,092 --> 00:49:59,492

Xhafer: Look, I'm not

:

00:49:59,587 --> 00:50:00,167

Ben: Major Carter.

:

00:50:00,502 --> 00:50:01,672

Xhafer: I'm not going to do this.

:

00:50:01,872 --> 00:50:03,332

I'm just going to say it right now.

:

00:50:03,622 --> 00:50:07,212

If you and Ben After we're done with

this, decide to do a podcast where

:

00:50:07,212 --> 00:50:08,942

you go back and watch all this show.

:

00:50:10,792 --> 00:50:13,762

You should rate shows on a

scale of 1 to 7 chevrons.

:

00:50:13,762 --> 00:50:15,422

That is my gift to you.

:

00:50:15,937 --> 00:50:16,677

Victor: That's a good one, yeah.

:

00:50:18,307 --> 00:50:19,827

Ben: I do have, I do have one more.

:

00:50:20,547 --> 00:50:23,017

I've got one more question for

you guys about the episode.

:

00:50:23,857 --> 00:50:29,797

So, huge firefight, the people who

don't believe in the Stargate now

:

00:50:29,937 --> 00:50:34,687

are, you know, they all got shot by a

bunch of aliens who jumped through it.

:

00:50:35,437 --> 00:50:37,447

Malon is totally murdered, right?

:

00:50:38,462 --> 00:50:38,702

Xhafer: Oh,

:

00:50:38,937 --> 00:50:40,077

Ben: Back at that other base.

:

00:50:41,677 --> 00:50:42,247

Victor: Mmm,

:

00:50:42,417 --> 00:50:46,597

Ben: So it's, I hope you are happy,

you jerk off, you couldn't have waited,

:

00:50:46,607 --> 00:50:51,327

you know, two minutes to talk to

these people, and now you're murdered.

:

00:50:52,707 --> 00:50:58,007

Victor: I love how Nyan Cat just has no

qualms about leaving his home behind.

:

00:50:58,347 --> 00:51:00,297

It's like, fuck that planet,

they're a bunch of dicks.

:

00:51:01,537 --> 00:51:04,537

I'll come live here in this

strange world I know nothing about.

:

00:51:05,077 --> 00:51:06,687

That doesn't have lasers, apparently.

:

00:51:06,757 --> 00:51:06,967

Or

:

00:51:07,262 --> 00:51:08,612

Ben: You guys got sideburns there?

:

00:51:08,732 --> 00:51:12,912

Oh yeah man, it's the late 90s,

early:

:

00:51:13,182 --> 00:51:14,642

You'll fit right in.

:

00:51:19,172 --> 00:51:19,852

Xhafer: Alright.

:

00:51:20,342 --> 00:51:25,802

Do we want to, uh, go over the

prediction results from last time?

:

00:51:25,882 --> 00:51:28,212

Lincoln, what are you doing up there?

:

00:51:28,692 --> 00:51:29,172

Guessing.

:

00:51:30,462 --> 00:51:33,532

I guess no one's coming.

:

00:51:33,532 --> 00:51:35,922

I have seen into the future.

:

00:51:35,922 --> 00:51:37,402

You ruined the prophecy.

:

00:51:37,689 --> 00:51:39,239

Xhafer: Do you have those

in from the lab, Vic?

:

00:51:39,864 --> 00:51:41,714

Victor: uh, they're

coming in just a second.

:

00:51:42,134 --> 00:51:44,794

I'm curious to roll the dice.

:

00:51:44,804 --> 00:51:48,114

I want to know, I'm actually,

I'm actually excited now.

:

00:51:48,154 --> 00:51:51,304

You know, um, I hate to say it, I

hate to admit it, but it's true.

:

00:51:51,374 --> 00:51:52,304

I'll admit it.

:

00:51:52,789 --> 00:51:56,769

I'm, I'm diggin this show, it's,

it's different, you know, it's

:

00:51:56,779 --> 00:51:57,359

Xhafer: No Gator

:

00:51:57,489 --> 00:51:58,819

Victor: not what I expected.

:

00:51:58,969 --> 00:52:01,899

Yeah, yeah, no, no, no gator hater

points, except for the one about

:

00:52:01,899 --> 00:52:05,269

the guy at the beginning who just

disappeared, but I can get over it.

:

00:52:05,639 --> 00:52:10,329

Uh, but yeah, I, I'm actually

invested in this show now, so I'm

:

00:52:10,339 --> 00:52:12,099

excited to, to watch another episode.

:

00:52:12,639 --> 00:52:15,279

All right, let's, let's

hear them dice roll!

:

00:52:16,329 --> 00:52:16,729

Xhafer: All right.

:

00:52:16,729 --> 00:52:18,479

That is a 14

:

00:52:19,259 --> 00:52:20,099

Victor: Ooh,

:

00:52:20,149 --> 00:52:26,359

Xhafer: takes us to season 4

episode 11 point of no return.

:

00:52:27,259 --> 00:52:27,729

Victor: what?

:

00:52:27,759 --> 00:52:28,609

No way.

:

00:52:30,829 --> 00:52:35,004

Point and overturn, that's a, that's

a Isn't that the name of, isn't that

:

00:52:35,004 --> 00:52:36,444

the name of a Babylon 5 episode?

:

00:52:37,739 --> 00:52:38,269

Xhafer: I think so.

:

00:52:38,269 --> 00:52:38,709

Yeah.

:

00:52:38,879 --> 00:52:39,059

Yeah.

:

00:52:39,059 --> 00:52:39,119

It

:

00:52:39,354 --> 00:52:40,684

Victor: Yeah, Pointed Overturn, yeah.

:

00:52:41,274 --> 00:52:45,894

And then, uh, and then, Frame of

Mind, or Out of Mind, yeah, they're,

:

00:52:46,249 --> 00:52:46,629

Xhafer: oh, yeah.

:

00:52:46,839 --> 00:52:50,709

Point of no return is the

is the name of season 3.

:

00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:52,919

So it's definitely the name

of an episode of Babylon

:

00:52:53,094 --> 00:52:53,534

Victor: yeah.

:

00:52:54,004 --> 00:52:54,344

Ha

:

00:52:54,419 --> 00:52:59,119

Xhafer: It's a season name episode,

um, Stargate command is contacted by a

:

00:52:59,119 --> 00:53:04,399

rambling individual who claims to possess

full knowledge of a host of government

:

00:53:04,399 --> 00:53:07,049

conspiracies from the government.

:

00:53:07,049 --> 00:53:12,249

Kennedy cover up to CIA

sanctioned microwave harassment

:

00:53:12,509 --> 00:53:14,409

of libertarian candidates.

:

00:53:14,984 --> 00:53:16,334

Victor: you are making this up.

:

00:53:16,364 --> 00:53:17,434

That's what it actually

:

00:53:17,924 --> 00:53:19,464

Xhafer: what it actually says!

:

00:53:19,564 --> 00:53:24,784

Victor: Ha ha, I am so invested in

this episode, in this series now.

:

00:53:25,054 --> 00:53:26,644

That is awesome.

:

00:53:26,644 --> 00:53:30,484

Ha ha ha ha, oh man.

:

00:53:30,559 --> 00:53:31,239

Oh,

:

00:53:31,254 --> 00:53:35,234

Xhafer: So, we'll make some predictions

in a few, but let's pull up the lab

:

00:53:35,234 --> 00:53:36,754

results here and see how we're doing.

:

00:53:37,579 --> 00:53:38,949

Victor: me, uh, let me just pull those up.

:

00:53:38,949 --> 00:53:41,329

I've got the results from

the lab coming in right now.

:

00:53:43,179 --> 00:53:43,709

There they are.

:

00:53:43,964 --> 00:53:46,374

Xhafer: Once again, we

can do it in post, Vic.

:

00:53:48,979 --> 00:53:49,959

Victor: I'm never going to stop.

:

00:53:49,959 --> 00:53:51,809

So hang on.

:

00:53:51,809 --> 00:53:53,979

I actually just got a text

from Angela right now.

:

00:53:53,979 --> 00:53:56,839

Let me just text recording podcast.

:

00:53:56,879 --> 00:53:57,589

No, can't talk.

:

00:53:57,899 --> 00:53:59,899

doo doo doo doo doo hm hm hm hm

:

00:54:03,259 --> 00:54:15,909

hm Uh, ah whatever I'll

just text her later Okay, um

:

00:54:17,399 --> 00:54:21,699

brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Pull up the results here Alright, oh gosh,

:

00:54:21,699 --> 00:54:23,879

I meant to get a running total uh, again,

:

00:54:24,074 --> 00:54:24,804

Xhafer: I got mine.

:

00:54:25,224 --> 00:54:27,374

I went through and tallied up mine.

:

00:54:27,959 --> 00:54:30,121

Victor: God you guys are so awesome I

:

00:54:30,274 --> 00:54:31,314

Xhafer: did you do yours, Ben?

:

00:54:31,405 --> 00:54:32,689

Victor: Hahaha, alright

:

00:54:36,399 --> 00:54:41,009

Ben: I I went through and checked off

all the ones that, uh, I've gotten

:

00:54:41,009 --> 00:54:42,949

right so far, but I don't have a number.

:

00:54:44,129 --> 00:54:47,789

Victor: Yeah, uh, uh I can figure that

out, cause when I post these I usually

:

00:54:47,789 --> 00:54:53,869

post the day time first and then the and

Yeah, then the prime time in the evening.

:

00:54:53,869 --> 00:54:54,119

Yeah.

:

00:54:54,669 --> 00:54:55,529

So anyway, okay.

:

00:54:55,589 --> 00:54:59,479

Oh, and by the way, Uh, when I,

when I sent this one down to the

:

00:54:59,479 --> 00:55:01,809

lab, I forgot to lock the pole.

:

00:55:02,179 --> 00:55:06,299

So that people can't add their own

options and some, some of you, talking

:

00:55:06,299 --> 00:55:11,479

to you, DMT Research Lab, you lab rats,

some of you guys Graffiti'd the poll.

:

00:55:11,489 --> 00:55:12,799

You started adding options.

:

00:55:12,799 --> 00:55:13,859

You're not supposed to do that.

:

00:55:13,859 --> 00:55:15,289

That defeats the whole purpose.

:

00:55:15,289 --> 00:55:16,919

You can't add your own options here.

:

00:55:17,519 --> 00:55:20,619

Someone, Someone added yee haw.

:

00:55:21,109 --> 00:55:22,309

Like what the hell does that even mean?

:

00:55:22,329 --> 00:55:23,059

Yee haw.

:

00:55:23,409 --> 00:55:27,029

And then someone else added the team

faces off with a Belgian Guauld.

:

00:55:27,974 --> 00:55:28,784

Like a Belgian?

:

00:55:31,004 --> 00:55:31,444

Guys,

:

00:55:31,614 --> 00:55:34,484

Xhafer: of my predictions for this week

was that someone was going to add Yeehaw

:

00:55:34,484 --> 00:55:36,434

to the poll, so I'll take my point.

:

00:55:36,564 --> 00:55:37,524

Victor: Oh, of course, yeah.

:

00:55:38,194 --> 00:55:39,164

Fucking time traveler.

:

00:55:39,234 --> 00:55:39,584

Okay.

:

00:55:40,304 --> 00:55:43,624

Alright, so, uh, who

had, uh, Clancy Brown?

:

00:55:43,734 --> 00:55:45,044

Xhafer: I had Clancy Brown shows

:

00:55:45,284 --> 00:55:45,804

Victor: That was you.

:

00:55:46,024 --> 00:55:50,784

Okay, some, again, some of the

research lab don't understand how this

:

00:55:50,784 --> 00:55:53,134

works, uh, because they voted on it.

:

00:55:53,474 --> 00:55:56,314

And I'm sorry, I went and I, I went

and I checked Clancy Brown's IMDb

:

00:55:56,314 --> 00:55:58,814

profile and there is no Stargate.

:

00:55:59,944 --> 00:56:04,524

He's been in Star Wars, he's been

in Star Wars, he's been in Star

:

00:56:04,524 --> 00:56:06,864

Trek, he has not been in Stargate.

:

00:56:07,424 --> 00:56:10,084

Unless he made a secret,

uncredited appearance.

:

00:56:10,134 --> 00:56:11,534

Actors do that sometimes.

:

00:56:11,794 --> 00:56:14,014

But I'm pretty sure that

still would have been on IMDb.

:

00:56:14,884 --> 00:56:16,524

But uh, even though,

:

00:56:17,304 --> 00:56:19,114

it had seven people vote on it?!

:

00:56:19,684 --> 00:56:20,874

Seven people voted!

:

00:56:21,554 --> 00:56:23,314

Alright, I'm gonna have to

go back and confirm this.

:

00:56:23,314 --> 00:56:25,664

Because if there's seven people,

I don't know if they were just

:

00:56:25,674 --> 00:56:27,534

being idiots, or if they were

:

00:56:28,674 --> 00:56:30,114

Xhafer: I'll trust IMDB.

:

00:56:30,214 --> 00:56:30,774

It's fine.

:

00:56:31,174 --> 00:56:31,464

Victor: Yeah.

:

00:56:33,134 --> 00:56:34,214

Uh, let's see.

:

00:56:34,264 --> 00:56:35,254

Uh, next.

:

00:56:35,314 --> 00:56:38,914

Your next prediction was

SG 1 teams up with a Gua

:

00:56:39,004 --> 00:56:40,764

Xhafer: Yeah, both Ben and I had this one.

:

00:56:40,764 --> 00:56:41,044

He

:

00:56:41,404 --> 00:56:41,964

Victor: Yeah, that's right.

:

00:56:41,994 --> 00:56:45,164

And wow, I must have been, I must have

had some tequila when I posted this

:

00:56:45,164 --> 00:56:47,424

because I, I just now noticed my typo.

:

00:56:47,754 --> 00:56:50,384

Uh, SG1 tealks up with a guava.

:

00:56:50,384 --> 00:56:53,634

Pfft.

:

00:56:54,794 --> 00:56:59,414

Uh, but, uh, with eight votes and

a confirmation from Angela, uh,

:

00:56:59,474 --> 00:57:02,274

Angela the Gatekeeper, that, I'm

gonna say that one is correct.

:

00:57:02,324 --> 00:57:03,734

So that apparently happens a few times.

:

00:57:04,709 --> 00:57:05,719

Ben: Hey.

:

00:57:06,404 --> 00:57:08,654

Victor: And your next prediction

was Plato was an alien?

:

00:57:08,664 --> 00:57:10,104

No, Plato was not an alien.

:

00:57:10,104 --> 00:57:11,714

Ha ha ha.

:

00:57:11,974 --> 00:57:13,174

Plato never comes up in the series.

:

00:57:13,944 --> 00:57:14,034

Ha

:

00:57:14,044 --> 00:57:15,884

Xhafer: that brings my

running total to ten.

:

00:57:16,694 --> 00:57:17,674

Victor: Hey, that's nice.

:

00:57:18,814 --> 00:57:21,404

Let's see, okay, next

up are my predictions.

:

00:57:21,844 --> 00:57:25,434

I predicted that other nations get

involved with the Stargate program.

:

00:57:25,444 --> 00:57:28,664

With 19 votes, 33 percent of the votes.

:

00:57:28,704 --> 00:57:30,804

Uh, that, that's a, that's a correct.

:

00:57:30,814 --> 00:57:35,279

It usually tells me how many people

voted on this, but uh Not this time.

:

00:57:35,279 --> 00:57:35,849

That's strange.

:

00:57:36,839 --> 00:57:42,669

Uh, okay, and my next prediction was,

uh, Teal calibrates a group of Jaffa.

:

00:57:43,289 --> 00:57:47,679

Uh, only four votes, but I got a

confirmation from the gatekeeper

:

00:57:47,679 --> 00:57:49,439

on that one that that's correct.

:

00:57:49,759 --> 00:57:52,029

Uh, apparently happens

a few times as well.

:

00:57:53,229 --> 00:57:55,099

And my third prediction was the U.

:

00:57:55,099 --> 00:57:55,269

S.

:

00:57:55,289 --> 00:57:57,369

president gets Gua'uld.

:

00:57:57,769 --> 00:57:59,099

Apparently I came close.

:

00:57:59,539 --> 00:58:02,859

Some of these guys came close

to spoiler territory and said,

:

00:58:03,284 --> 00:58:06,614

They said close, uh, someone gets

possessed but not the president.

:

00:58:06,654 --> 00:58:10,674

Apparently someone really important

gets, gets, uh, gets ghoul ded.

:

00:58:10,754 --> 00:58:11,694

But, uh, but not the U.

:

00:58:11,694 --> 00:58:11,824

S.

:

00:58:11,824 --> 00:58:12,484

president, so.

:

00:58:12,959 --> 00:58:19,784

Ben: So somebody really important

in the early:

:

00:58:19,784 --> 00:58:21,144

say it's Harry Connick Jr.

:

00:58:21,394 --> 00:58:21,504

Victor: Pffft!

:

00:58:21,504 --> 00:58:23,434

Ha ha ha ha!

:

00:58:24,494 --> 00:58:25,934

I thought you were gonna

say the Backstreet Boys.

:

00:58:25,934 --> 00:58:27,894

Ha ha ha ha!

:

00:58:30,074 --> 00:58:31,724

Uh, okay, uh, let's see.

:

00:58:31,724 --> 00:58:34,344

So I think these next two

predictions are yours, Ben.

:

00:58:34,344 --> 00:58:38,874

Uh, T ilk rescues the

SG 1 team from Hathor.

:

00:58:39,894 --> 00:58:41,934

Uh, did get confirmation

that that one is correct.

:

00:58:42,799 --> 00:58:48,349

As well as there are, there are

quite a few clip shows apparently.

:

00:58:48,669 --> 00:58:51,489

Because your next prediction

was there are, there are at

:

00:58:51,499 --> 00:58:52,709

least two more clip shows.

:

00:58:52,749 --> 00:58:55,509

Um, I hate to say spoiler

alert, apparently there was

:

00:58:55,509 --> 00:58:56,589

a clip show in season one.

:

00:58:57,824 --> 00:58:58,084

Ben: Oh, dang!

:

00:58:58,084 --> 00:59:00,264

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

:

00:59:01,004 --> 00:59:05,764

Okay, so, uh, That I actually

ran the table with my predictions

:

00:59:05,789 --> 00:59:07,139

Victor: Yeah, you got

all three of them right.

:

00:59:07,399 --> 00:59:08,409

You get, you pull off the hat

:

00:59:08,524 --> 00:59:10,514

Ben: up to f Uh, 14 points.

:

00:59:10,704 --> 00:59:11,514

Xhafer: Oh damn!

:

00:59:12,119 --> 00:59:12,879

Victor: Nice.

:

00:59:13,944 --> 00:59:18,724

Ben: And and that's I I I completely

blanked out last episode, So

:

00:59:18,784 --> 00:59:20,674

that's that I'm feeling good now.

:

00:59:22,179 --> 00:59:24,409

Victor: Well, last episode was,

was the clip show, wasn't it?

:

00:59:24,479 --> 00:59:25,599

The last one that we did.

:

00:59:26,964 --> 00:59:29,124

Ben: Uh, the last one, uh

:

00:59:30,619 --> 00:59:32,389

Victor: Yeah, it was

the finale where Hathor.

:

00:59:32,749 --> 00:59:38,279

It ends on the cliffhanger with, um, yeah,

with Hot Hathor has the, that's the team.

:

00:59:39,099 --> 00:59:40,169

So, okay, let me write this down.

:

00:59:40,169 --> 00:59:44,479

So, Ben is at 14, and

Ja'far, you're at 10?

:

00:59:46,259 --> 00:59:49,229

I'm, I'm gonna be

embarrassed to run my total.

:

00:59:49,229 --> 00:59:50,119

I'm probably terrible.

:

00:59:50,399 --> 00:59:50,689

So,

:

00:59:51,524 --> 00:59:51,684

Xhafer: There's

:

00:59:51,709 --> 00:59:53,359

Victor: alright, let's get

some new predictions going.

:

00:59:54,229 --> 00:59:54,569

Ben: all right.

:

00:59:54,599 --> 00:59:56,139

Give me give me one second.

:

00:59:56,139 --> 00:59:56,979

I need my prime

:

00:59:57,254 --> 01:00:00,924

Xhafer: After this, after this

next episode, we will still only be

:

01:00:00,934 --> 01:00:02,964

about halfway through the series.

:

01:00:03,444 --> 01:00:03,924

So

:

01:00:03,979 --> 01:00:04,169

Ben: true.

:

01:00:04,169 --> 01:00:05,139

We got a long way to

:

01:00:05,329 --> 01:00:06,839

Xhafer: We got some episodes to

:

01:00:07,104 --> 01:00:09,134

Victor: We have a long road

to get there from here.

:

01:00:10,279 --> 01:00:12,059

All right, time for our new predictions.

:

01:00:13,439 --> 01:00:13,919

Xhafer: All right.

:

01:00:13,999 --> 01:00:15,339

I can start us off.

:

01:00:15,999 --> 01:00:19,529

My daytime prediction at some point.

:

01:00:20,114 --> 01:00:22,404

Daniel gets a field commission.

:

01:00:24,314 --> 01:00:26,234

They're there with some other soldiers.

:

01:00:26,694 --> 01:00:29,054

O'Neill and the major are not there.

:

01:00:29,114 --> 01:00:34,084

So he, he has to accept a field commission

to be in charge of the mission to

:

01:00:34,134 --> 01:00:37,974

outrank the actual soldiers that they're

with, uh, whether or not it sticks.

:

01:00:37,974 --> 01:00:40,984

I don't think so, but that's

not part of my prediction.

:

01:00:40,984 --> 01:00:45,654

Just at some point field commission,

he gets a rank at some point.

:

01:00:45,799 --> 01:00:46,199

Ben: all right.

:

01:00:47,344 --> 01:00:51,774

Xhafer: Uh, my evening,

uh, the team finds a game.

:

01:00:52,109 --> 01:00:56,649

On an alien planet and

plays it in a later episode.

:

01:00:57,149 --> 01:00:57,919

So like.

:

01:00:58,069 --> 01:00:59,939

Victor: this, is this an Alamarine thing?

:

01:01:00,534 --> 01:01:01,914

Xhafer: Not necessarily.

:

01:01:02,184 --> 01:01:07,884

I'm not discounting the possibility of

it being in Almoraine or the, uh, disc

:

01:01:07,914 --> 01:01:10,374

go in hole game from TNG kind of a thing.

:

01:01:11,809 --> 01:01:13,669

Victor: Oh, that would

be an amazing crossover.

:

01:01:13,974 --> 01:01:18,184

Xhafer: it's really more of a like we at

some point, like in a couple episodes,

:

01:01:18,184 --> 01:01:22,784

they're playing Bedrosian poker or

something like probably not from this

:

01:01:22,784 --> 01:01:27,444

world, given how everything went, but

at some point they're playing some game.

:

01:01:27,444 --> 01:01:30,194

That's a call back to a previous

episode instead of like.

:

01:01:30,559 --> 01:01:33,089

Poker or Euchre or some earth game.

:

01:01:34,469 --> 01:01:36,019

Victor: They play an alien game.

:

01:01:36,099 --> 01:01:36,439

Okay.

:

01:01:36,699 --> 01:01:42,699

Xhafer: And then my primetime, we've seen

them fight lots of cultures with like,

:

01:01:42,699 --> 01:01:47,699

they've most of the cultures they've

experienced have been either no weapons

:

01:01:47,699 --> 01:01:50,539

cultures or advanced weapons cultures.

:

01:01:51,359 --> 01:01:55,859

At some point they will land on a

planet if they haven't already with.

:

01:01:56,459 --> 01:01:59,609

Older weapons and someone

is getting arrowed.

:

01:02:01,379 --> 01:02:02,139

Ben: Oh,

:

01:02:02,179 --> 01:02:04,199

Xhafer: Someone on this

team is taking an arrow.

:

01:02:04,239 --> 01:02:07,859

It probably has happened

to be perfectly honest.

:

01:02:07,859 --> 01:02:09,019

I'm guessing this happened back

:

01:02:09,109 --> 01:02:09,709

Ben: Hood planet.

:

01:02:10,429 --> 01:02:12,239

Victor: Someone takes

an arrow to the knee.

:

01:02:12,349 --> 01:02:15,109

Xhafer: An arrow to anywhere, but yeah,

:

01:02:15,819 --> 01:02:17,169

Victor: Bonus points if it's the knee.

:

01:02:17,409 --> 01:02:18,089

Xhafer: Sure.

:

01:02:18,339 --> 01:02:20,819

I'll, I'll go ahead and

throw a bonus prediction.

:

01:02:21,049 --> 01:02:22,859

They take an arrow to the knee.

:

01:02:24,729 --> 01:02:25,369

Victor: That would be great.

:

01:02:26,139 --> 01:02:26,459

Alright,

:

01:02:26,479 --> 01:02:26,809

Ben: All right.

:

01:02:26,849 --> 01:02:29,109

uh, Victor, do you want to go next?

:

01:02:29,689 --> 01:02:32,469

Victor: uh, Yeah, I'll go next.

:

01:02:33,489 --> 01:02:33,759

Okay.

:

01:02:33,759 --> 01:02:38,169

So, uh, first my daytime predict

or wait, daytime's first, right?

:

01:02:38,169 --> 01:02:38,349

Yeah.

:

01:02:38,349 --> 01:02:38,769

Daytime.

:

01:02:38,979 --> 01:02:40,149

I'm never gonna get this right.

:

01:02:40,179 --> 01:02:40,449

Okay.

:

01:02:40,839 --> 01:02:42,759

Uh, teal rides a motorcycle.

:

01:02:43,279 --> 01:02:43,699

That's it.

:

01:02:44,419 --> 01:02:44,749

Xhafer: yeah.

:

01:02:46,609 --> 01:02:50,389

Victor: I don't care if it's an alien

motorcycle, if it's a earth motorcycle,

:

01:02:50,389 --> 01:02:54,679

a Harley, a Kawasaki, whatever, he's

gonna ride a motorcycle at some point.

:

01:02:54,979 --> 01:02:55,879

That just has to happen.

:

01:02:57,364 --> 01:02:59,349

Uh, now continuing with my.

:

01:03:00,514 --> 01:03:02,224

My trend of theme predictions.

:

01:03:02,514 --> 01:03:05,124

I'm going to predict that we're

going to get a courtroom episode.

:

01:03:07,139 --> 01:03:07,569

Xhafer: All right.

:

01:03:08,404 --> 01:03:13,124

Victor: And for bonus points, I'm going

to say that the courtroom episode,

:

01:03:13,144 --> 01:03:17,584

it's going to be general Hammond on

trial for murdering the journalist

:

01:03:17,584 --> 01:03:19,474

with, by running them over with a car.

:

01:03:19,474 --> 01:03:25,714

Well, well, hell I don't know

what you're talking about.

:

01:03:25,714 --> 01:03:27,964

I didn't run anybody over with a car.

:

01:03:30,304 --> 01:03:34,314

And for my final prediction, uh,

I'm going to say that Sheree.

:

01:03:34,329 --> 01:03:36,729

Well,

:

01:03:37,699 --> 01:03:39,299

Xhafer: Kind of, kind of is

:

01:03:40,589 --> 01:03:43,399

Victor: no, well, I'm

okay to be more specific.

:

01:03:43,799 --> 01:03:44,569

Ben: It's not the worm.

:

01:03:44,569 --> 01:03:45,199

That's a villain.

:

01:03:45,259 --> 01:03:46,439

She's the villain.

:

01:03:46,669 --> 01:03:49,829

Victor: well, she, she tries to

fight it, you know, cause the last

:

01:03:49,829 --> 01:03:54,389

time we saw her, she was like, she

was able to resist control of it.

:

01:03:54,429 --> 01:03:58,779

I'm going to say that in a

big, in a big twist and a big.

:

01:03:59,538 --> 01:04:01,239

Unexpected curve ball.

:

01:04:01,719 --> 01:04:07,189

She loses completely and the Gwold

takes over completely and Sheree

:

01:04:07,209 --> 01:04:08,869

becomes the big, bad villain.

:

01:04:08,869 --> 01:04:10,639

She actually, okay, let me reword this.

:

01:04:11,038 --> 01:04:14,849

Sheree becomes a system

Lord, a Gwold system Lord.

:

01:04:16,019 --> 01:04:19,349

And, uh, and Dan, I already did

one bonus, but I'm, but I'm pretty

:

01:04:19,349 --> 01:04:23,579

sure they're setting it up to where

Daniel Jackson has to take her down.

:

01:04:24,029 --> 01:04:25,659

He has to end her.

:

01:04:25,959 --> 01:04:26,669

Xhafer: be the one.

:

01:04:26,919 --> 01:04:27,279

Okay.

:

01:04:28,209 --> 01:04:29,869

Victor: That's totally what

they're building up to.

:

01:04:29,869 --> 01:04:32,139

Heh heh heh.

:

01:04:32,329 --> 01:04:32,709

Ben: All right.

:

01:04:32,709 --> 01:04:37,609

Well, uh, talking a little bit at the

beginning of this episode about our

:

01:04:37,609 --> 01:04:39,609

old podcast draft, the universe affair,

:

01:04:40,089 --> 01:04:42,489

Xhafer: Actually, I listened to

an episode of that earlier today.

:

01:04:44,054 --> 01:04:44,604

Ben: fun!

:

01:04:45,274 --> 01:04:45,774

Which one?

:

01:04:45,869 --> 01:04:46,869

Xhafer: uh, just the anime.

:

01:04:46,879 --> 01:04:50,489

It was like an autoplay on my

Spotify, but I just let it roll.

:

01:04:51,299 --> 01:04:51,649

It's fun.

:

01:04:51,874 --> 01:04:55,544

Ben: I, I thought it was, uh, I shared

this with Ja'far, it was really cool,

:

01:04:55,564 --> 01:04:59,354

a friend of mine, I told her about

the podcast, and she listened to a lot

:

01:04:59,354 --> 01:05:06,764

of it, on Spotify, and she shared her

Spotify wrapped, and I'm like, my podcast

:

01:05:06,774 --> 01:05:11,784

is on there, the podcast that hasn't

put out a new episode in five years?

:

01:05:12,413 --> 01:05:16,174

You are the only person who

Draft the Universe is showing

:

01:05:16,174 --> 01:05:17,964

up on your Spotify wrapped.

:

01:05:18,264 --> 01:05:19,434

Like, this is so cool.

:

01:05:19,764 --> 01:05:20,294

Um.

:

01:05:20,854 --> 01:05:25,644

But, uh, thinking about that made

me think about gambits, uh, which

:

01:05:25,644 --> 01:05:29,154

is something we used to do where all

of my predictions now are going to

:

01:05:29,154 --> 01:05:31,524

have a theme, uh, for this episode.

:

01:05:31,764 --> 01:05:37,874

And also, uh, you guys mentioning

that, uh, point of no return, uh,

:

01:05:37,944 --> 01:05:42,064

Is a theme across different sci fi.

:

01:05:43,014 --> 01:05:48,514

I'm going to say my daytime

prediction, at least two Trek actors

:

01:05:48,904 --> 01:05:52,524

are notable guest stars on SG 1.

:

01:05:53,038 --> 01:05:53,839

Xhafer: Oh, that's a gimme.

:

01:05:53,869 --> 01:05:54,369

Yeah,

:

01:05:55,304 --> 01:05:55,494

Ben: It's

:

01:05:55,519 --> 01:05:58,319

Victor: Well, we've already, Yeah,

Yeah, okay, yeah, we've already

:

01:05:58,319 --> 01:05:59,659

had, we've already had Quark.

:

01:06:01,344 --> 01:06:01,854

Ben: Oh, yeah.

:

01:06:01,854 --> 01:06:02,564

I, I,

:

01:06:02,579 --> 01:06:02,809

Victor: yeah.

:

01:06:03,924 --> 01:06:06,904

Ben: my evening prediction, at least two,

:

01:06:08,049 --> 01:06:09,909

Xhafer: You can't predict

things that already happened.

:

01:06:11,124 --> 01:06:11,884

Ben: Hey, it's not my fault.

:

01:06:11,884 --> 01:06:12,874

There was, it's not my fault.

:

01:06:12,874 --> 01:06:17,114

There was a, uh, uh,

uh, Clip show episode.

:

01:06:17,579 --> 01:06:18,469

Xhafer: Yes, it is!

:

01:06:18,629 --> 01:06:19,619

We watched it!

:

01:06:19,809 --> 01:06:21,069

If we hadn't have seen it!

:

01:06:21,534 --> 01:06:25,454

Not a problem, but we

saw it and you know, so

:

01:06:25,634 --> 01:06:29,729

Ben: I'm happy with it

being two people, not Armin

:

01:06:29,814 --> 01:06:31,874

Xhafer: three that either works.

:

01:06:33,904 --> 01:06:38,824

Ben: My evening prediction,

at least two Babylon 5 actors

:

01:06:39,279 --> 01:06:41,639

Victor: Now that's, yeah,

that's gonna be a little more.

:

01:06:43,479 --> 01:06:43,679

At

:

01:06:43,794 --> 01:06:49,254

Ben: my prime time, at least

two Battlestar Galactica

:

01:06:49,574 --> 01:06:51,924

characters are guest stars.

:

01:06:52,834 --> 01:06:58,784

And from the time period this is

in, that means original Battlestar

:

01:06:58,974 --> 01:07:01,054

Galactica or Battlestar 80,

:

01:07:01,934 --> 01:07:03,674

Xhafer: So not:

:

01:07:04,554 --> 01:07:06,294

Ben: not:

:

01:07:09,494 --> 01:07:12,694

Victor: yeah, hmm.

:

01:07:12,754 --> 01:07:15,644

Ben: wouldn't be, hey, we

brought in a notable guest star.

:

01:07:16,684 --> 01:07:21,104

Because there wouldn't be a, hey, we know

this person's gonna be big in two years.

:

01:07:21,254 --> 01:07:23,924

Xhafer: I mean, Edward James

Olmos was already famous.

:

01:07:24,864 --> 01:07:25,364

Ben: Oh yeah,

:

01:07:25,404 --> 01:07:29,094

Xhafer: There, there, there are

people in that that were already of a

:

01:07:29,334 --> 01:07:34,109

Ben: I mean, I I almost said,

uh, there are at least two actors

:

01:07:34,109 --> 01:07:38,489

from Miami Vice and Edwards

James Olmos would hit both, uh,

:

01:07:41,834 --> 01:07:45,264

Victor: So, uh, okay, so, so you're

going with original BSG only.

:

01:07:46,079 --> 01:07:47,549

Ben: or Battlestar 80.

:

01:07:48,874 --> 01:07:49,554

Victor: wasn't that the same

:

01:07:49,554 --> 01:07:50,564

Xhafer: Pre reboot.

:

01:07:51,159 --> 01:07:51,759

Ben: Kinda.

:

01:07:52,194 --> 01:07:52,554

Victor: Kinda?

:

01:07:53,454 --> 01:07:53,624

No,

:

01:07:53,634 --> 01:07:53,894

was

:

01:07:53,989 --> 01:07:59,009

Ben: they're not on the spaceship anymore

and there's super Mormon babies, uh,

:

01:07:59,974 --> 01:08:01,614

Victor: Okay, I definitely

haven't seen this one, then.

:

01:08:02,154 --> 01:08:05,224

Uh, was that the one where they

get back to Earth and they have

:

01:08:06,199 --> 01:08:07,029

Ben: motorcycles.

:

01:08:07,274 --> 01:08:08,514

Victor: Yeah, the flying motorcycles.

:

01:08:08,574 --> 01:08:10,224

That's the only thing

I remember about this.

:

01:08:11,864 --> 01:08:13,134

Xhafer: it's the only

thing worth remembering.

:

01:08:15,219 --> 01:08:17,698

Ben: Hey, super Mormon babies,

:

01:08:18,634 --> 01:08:18,754

Victor: the

:

01:08:19,059 --> 01:08:22,038

Ben: the Mormonism is way more

out on point in Battlestar 80.

:

01:08:22,363 --> 01:08:25,783

Victor: That is so weird because

I've been re watching The Expanse

:

01:08:25,783 --> 01:08:29,054

and I just saw the episode where

they stole the Mormon spaceship.

:

01:08:30,987 --> 01:08:32,497

Space Mormons, man, they're everywhere.

:

01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:33,470

Are you with us,

:

01:08:33,670 --> 01:08:34,050

Xhafer: I am.

:

01:08:35,234 --> 01:08:35,805

Ben: Yeah, it's your turn.

:

01:08:35,859 --> 01:08:36,430

Xhafer: No, I already did

:

01:08:36,660 --> 01:08:37,359

Victor: Wait, no, he already made

:

01:08:37,565 --> 01:08:38,805

Ben: I know, to take us out.

:

01:08:39,830 --> 01:08:43,069

Xhafer: Alright, well with all of

that said, there's only one thing

:

01:08:43,190 --> 01:08:44,910

left to do, and that's say thank

:

01:08:45,075 --> 01:08:48,035

Victor: To remind our listeners to

let go of the button when you're

Don't be a hot mic.

:

01:08:51,135 --> 01:08:51,484

Okay?

:

01:08:51,515 --> 01:08:52,555

Let go of the button!

:

01:08:52,705 --> 01:08:54,484

This has been a PSA from last time on.

:

01:08:54,510 --> 01:08:57,819

Ben: I just waved my hands,

I didn't say anything.

:

01:09:08,785 --> 01:09:10,645

Uh, Not great in an audio

:

01:09:10,660 --> 01:09:11,240

Xhafer: No.

:

01:09:14,540 --> 01:09:16,729

Ben, if I had to put

something on your tombstone.

:

01:09:18,515 --> 01:09:20,175

Ben: Not great in an audio medium.
