collswanIn this episode, Teal'c must stand trial for a crime committed while he served as first prime of Apophis when a villager on an alien world identifies him as the Jaffa who killed his father. Now, I don't want to ignore the seriousness of the theme in this episode. In my recent summer graduate class on the escapes and evasions in WWII, the atrocities of some of the war criminals who escaped justice and went on to lead normal, productive lives is a tragedy. I see why people strive to believe in a divine justice as there often seems to be so little of it in this lifetime.
But that's not really what I want to focus on in my non-RL.
So, I am going to ignore some of the seriousness of this episode and offer up a picspam about brussels sprouts. Also notice that it contains the longest speech by Teal'c EVER.
Inspired by the opening scene (pasted from GW):
We begin with the open stargate closing to show SG-1, their backs to us. The walk down the steps looking around at the deserted village. Birds are heard piping.
CARTER: Looks deserted.
TEAL'C: (Looks around) O'Neill. I have been here before.
JACKSON: (Turns to face Teal'C, suprised) What? You have?
TEAL'C: Yes. This world is called Cartago.
JACKSON: (Walks up to the Jaffa) What can you tell us about it?
TEAL'C: The Goa'uld visit here regularly. It is one of their favorite places to harvest hosts for Goa'uld absorption.
JACKSON: You know, I wish you wouldn't say "harvest." We're talking about human beings, not brussel sprouts.
I have been here before. This is where I get my brussels sprouts.
You use this world for brussels sprouts?
Wouldn't people be glad to have brussels sprouts taken off their hands?
I mean, they're kinda yicky.
Halt! Do not come any closer to the sprout storage.
Dude, we don't want your brussels sprouts.
I do not believe you. He has been here raiding for sprouts before.
But hey, wait a minute. Check you out... that's what I'm talkin' about...
Anyway, we'll be putting this thug on trial for stealing our sprouts.
My god would not allow me the funds to purchase sprouts. He thought the were an affront to... well.. him. I stole them because I like brussels sprouts and they do not grow on Chulak. I do not feel remorse.
He admits it! Off with his head!
What if he promises to pay for them? And return often to give you good trade for your sprouts?
You would do this, would you not Teal'c?
Indeed.
*still checking out Daniel* I suppose, because you are so persuasive, I could be amendable to this arrangement on one condition.
if Dr. Jackson will stay and have dinner with me.
I am NOT eating brussels sprouts!
But I make them with a lemon garlic butter that is to die for!
Tell your friend he must try them. He must try them with me!
Seriously?
Fine.
*Sam with a gun* SQUEE! not part of story, move along
OK, Teal'c. I've eaten the damn sprouts. Let's get out of here. Why did you go to the body painting booth?
Please do not tell anyone. I like to eat my brussels sprouts whilst painted.
OKay! The dinner party is over. Everyone go home. Now.
I am leaving.
Hey Teal'c... nice... paint..
*cannot look
Well... bye now.
Goodbye ~ good lookin'

Flat Sam hair continues. I'd forgotten all about this particular hair stage. :)
