SG-1 is accused of stealing an important weather-controlling device, sending a primative planet into chaos. The team discovers that Earth's second Stargate is being misused.

[Colonel Carter]

• When SG-1 returned to the planet and saw how bad the weather was, why did they not offer to bring the people to their planet until they could find the Touchstone?

• When the SGC saw through the M.A.L.P. that the weather conditions had deteriorated to the point of a blizzard, why did the SGC not offer to bring their people to Earth for shelter or else not send through blankets at coats for a people who clearly did not have warm enough clothes?

• When Jack and Daniel went through to Madrona, why did they not offer to bring the people back to Earth with them or at least bring them coats and blankets?

[Colonel Carter]

Oh, and why is it that that the event horizon of the Stargate will vaporize anything in its path, but not a titanium iris or the box they had kept the second Stargate in? I ain't buying it. :huh: :marvin:
