S3E2 - Fair Game

Finally, a big moment for our girl Samantha Carter. Hope and Frosty are celebarting as finally we get to see a woman succeed in the great institution that is the United States Air Force, an organisation that we hear is very progressive. Okay, but seriously it's cool that she gets promoted to Major now. Now, it is kind of weird that we have a squad that consists of a Colonel, a Major, and what are essentially two civillian contractors. It's a TV show, it doesn't matter.

Unfortunately, Major Carter's big moment is entirely snatched up by that dickhead little alien guy Thor ruining the whole thing. Jack gets nonconsensually teleported aboard his ship, which is currently in orbit above Earth, as he brings grave tidings to our Colonel. Turns out that the Goa'uld are slightly pissed off that we keep killing them. We've killed a lot of them. We've killed 3 System Lords at this point. They will invade Earth unless our little grey friend manages to convince a group of Goa'uld represenstives that humans should be allowed into the Space UN. Hey, would've been nice if you told us this existed earlier.

 

Jack, for some goddamn reason, is picked by Thor to be the diplomat for the entirety of Earth. Yeah, sure. This one random soldier and the guy in charge of the squad that has killed most of these people should be the diplomat in charge of us all. If only we had professional diplomats. Jack has to win over the three Go'auld Kronos, Yu, and Nirrti. Not an easy feat, especially when there is a murrrrrrrrrrrrrder. Dun, dun dun. Also, this is yet another episode that has its central conflict caused by Teal'c deciding not to tell everyone something again.
