SG-1 visits a world whose people once worshipped Vala as a god -- and demand that she stand trial when she confesses to manipulating them.
************************************************** *******************
I liked the question that Daniel posed about why these ascended beings care about being worshiped.
I don't understand why Cam was the only person from the SGC to become infected. I could understand Sam and Jack if they were there not becoming re-infeected because they had both been once cured of the disease and could now have a defense against it, but Daniel wasn't cured of it at the time and Teal'c no longer has a Goa'uld, and the woman has never had it.
I don't understand why the Ancients don't intervene because even though it is these supposed mortals with ascended powers (if they really are mortal), the other ascended beings are directly causing havoc in our galaxy through them and you would think that this would not be beneath the Ancients to intervene.
The Ori still remind me of the evil Emperor from Star Wars. They also remind me of actor Jeremy Irons for some reason.
Nice Matrix moment there where the bullets all stopped right in front of the Ori and then dropped. My reaction when I saw that was, "Nice Rip-Off." Oh well, they used something from Lord of the Rings in a previous episode.
What was the deal with the jello at the beginning? First, she still had some in front of her so why did she reach for Cam's and second, why did Cam quickly snatch it away? It just seemed a little too childish to me.
Overall it was interesting. But...
They did not explain Teal'cs return since he supposedly left for good last week.
They still haven't explained the fall of the Goa'ulds that well. We really have no idea what has happened to Anubis or the remaining system lords like Baal.
