SG1 Prediction: the amazing, ascended-being-killing weapon is Plif the Hoojib.

ETA 1: OMG DANIEL I LOVE YOU FOREVER, you know that the Holy Grail isn't a cup! Take that, Mr. Josh Anaphylactic Shock Bernstein.

"Waiting till it's over so that I can get some sleep" is probably not the best state of mind in which to be watching the season finales. Unfortunately, it's also the state of mind I was in when I watched several of the prerequisites for these storylines, which is contributing to my utter lack of caring-ness.

Well, Cam and Daniel were cute.

ETA 2: There is no way that the SGA thing is on the up-and-up, because if they actually go through with this, they will never be able to ally with *any* Pegasus human culture ever again, and they'll be totally screwed.

The wraith queen is kind of pretty though. I like the way they did her make-up.

Also, they established back in the middle of season one that Wraith can feed on other Wraith. Just thought I'd mention.

Yeah, 'cause this on top of the fact that the Genii are already trying to rally people against them, and the fact that they woke the Wraith in the first place... Plus, these are the Wraith. They obviously have some evil scheme in mind and are planning to double-cross them. You don't negotiate with food in good faith.

So I'm not the only viewer who was remembering "The Defiant One" and going wtf?

No, you're not the only one going 'wtf'. Now that it's been revealed as a trick, I can accept that the Wraith were lying, I just can't accept that all the SGA people conveniently *forgot* and calmly fell for it.

I'm hoping that the SGA people knew all along and have a reverse-double-cross planned and ready.

You don't negotiate with food in good faith, and sheep who have any intelligence don't negotiate with wolves, either. And if any Athosian gets as offended by this as I am, (considering they were apparently all in the city at the time) and starts spreading the story of how the Tau'ri are allied with the Wraith... not to mention how do they negotiate with anyone in good faith now? "Yes, help us, we are all enemies of the Wraith" ... except that would be a *lie*, because apparently you roll over and beg for *anyone* who offers you a few technical schematics.
