STARGATE SG - 1 / "Threads"

[milquetoast-on-acid]

Threads is the superior ending to Stargate SG1.

Sam ends as the leader of SG1. She was Jack's protege and natural successor when it came to the team. She earned it.

Teal'c finally succeeds in his ultimate goal to free his people.

Daniel finds a romantic someone who just happened to be his surrogate mother's daughter. I prefer this romance to Vala and Daniel. 🤮 I love Vala (I might like her more than Daniel) but not her romance with Daniel.

Jacob dies (in a full circle arc for his character). After Sam finally gets the relationship that she had actually wanted with her dad. I hate it but it made the episode emotional.

Daniel comes back to life (yet again, he's a freaking cat) in a hilarious naked scene. Jack why you so nervous over there? 😂 I love Stargate for having some guts to a Jack/Daniel romance, even if it's just a wink and a nod.

Jack and Sam end up together by having their cake and eating it too. They both get to keep working together while finally giving into their feelings. They get around the rules because he resigns and runs the mountain as a civilian.

They ending the show with SG1 fishing 🎣 is a genius ending. Why? It's such an average everyday thing. But like why would that matter? Because SG1 has saved the earth and now get to finally rest and enjoy peace. They are a family, after what they've gone through. The subtext of Sam and Jack's dialogue hints that they ended up to together. Sam finally accepts Jack's invitation to fishing. Fishing for them was never about actually fishing but about living.

Heather Watched the Extended Threads.

As if I haven’t already had a bad morning, lets emotionally torture ourselves shall we. Here is my running commentary:

Under a read more cause it was 8 pages of notes. 

That Previously On just shows that the main point of this episode is to get Sam and Jack together so if y’all don’t think they’re together after this, I have some news for you.

Gucci Douchebag making an appearance in the Previously On is not my idea of fun

JACOB I MISS YOU I AM ALREDY CRYING GOD HELP ME

Alright the episode has started with KERRY JOHNSON LOVE OF MY LIFE

Sam, you can’t be jealous, you’re literally MARRYING ANOTHER MAN.

Lol Jack you moron as if Daniel would walk through the door right now.

Sam is glaring at you funny just fyi.

But he’s right, Daniel is just waiting for y’all to be nice about him.

Oma I would like to order a plate of fucks to give about Daniel’s story at this point

Teal’c of the Tau’ri is a cute title I love that man

Aww I feel so proud of Teal’c.

FUCK OFF PETE

JAAACOOOB

Pete is so cringy

Jacob let Jack call him Dad once.. Pete has to wait until after marriage.

This is awkward as fuck

Pete you are so insensitive,

Jacob hates him. Same honestly.

You can tell he hates him tho, he’s not hiding it. My partners mum did a better job and she’s homophobic.

Sam is SO NOT in love with this guy

Oma being cryptic, checks out

Anubis makes me wanna punch someone.

This episode is really just tying up loose threads (probably hence the title) but its nice to know Pete is considered a loose thread 😊

Teal’c having to decide between the Jaffa and the Tau’ri is sad

Agh the newspaper and Daniel finding out about plans is an aggravating storyline

“I’m gonna marry him” reads the same as “Dad, I am happy”. Honey who are you trying to convince??? We don’t believe you.

“I know how happy he makes you” *Cut to Sam who looks nonchalant* *cut to Jacob who knows exactly what he’s doing and what he’s doing is attempting to stop her marrying Gucci Doucebag*

Selmak isn’t alive to make that call Jacob stop lying

I’M GONNA CRY AGAIN

She is really thinking about this. Like she looks like she’s second guessing herself constantly.

KERRY

JACK

KERRY AND JACK

JACK AND KERRY

WAKING UP TOGETHER

OH I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!

I love how soft and tender he is with her, I imagine he’d be the same with Sam.

I love how he cuddles her and kisses her and plays with her hair and that hand on her face I--- *insert heart eyes*

I just really love them so much I wish we got more of soft, boyfriend Jack

Trouble in Jaffa land lol

I think he did really like her though.

Anyway back to Half Ascended!Daniel

Oma ya shouldn’t have helped the first two times, that’s the fucking problem babe

I literally do not give a shit about Daniel, I’m sorry. I really try but I can’t

OH NO THE PHONE CALL SCENE

She is SO sick of Gucci Douchebag

I can’t believe he called her at WORK over FLOWERS

AND SAYING ITS URGENT FUCK SAKE

I love Peter in the back

Jack watching her

Jacob is playing matchmaker so hard I fucking love him

Sam’s face tho is sooooo funny LIKE DAD SHUT UP WE DON’T MENTION THIS IN FRONT OF MY CO

Oh the little sigh he does before telling her to go pick flowers I can’t handle that man, he’s so heartbroken its like a lost puppy

Jack smiles but his eyes say oh yeah, I lost her and she’s happy with someone else now. PLOT TWIST: she’s miserable

Sam looks hurt because she still loves Jack

FUCK ME IT HURTS THEY DESERVED MORE

Jacob don’t play dumb babe, we know what you’re trying to do

Oh she MAD MAD at Dad

Why is it ok to break some rules and not others, you ask? Because y’all are white and can get away with it?

Oma just stop helping people. You don’t need to help them, just stop. I don’t want to be an ascended being y’all suck

Chocolate or vanilla like go HOME WE DON’T WANT YOU HERE

Sam shaking her head no about getting blown up by aliens is so cute I love her so much

This feels like friends talking

Or like these two people I know who claim they’re in love but its always soooo awkward around them.

Generally speaking that’s my type like you haven’t had two alien boyfriends in the last 8 years babe

“I have a surprise for you” YOU BOUGHT A FUCKING HOUSE WITHOUT TELLING HER YOU CRETIN

THAT’S NOT A SURPRISE THAT’S CONTROLLING AND WEIRD

I hate that she looks happy. Don’t get me wrong I want her happy, I really do. And as much as I’m sure she loved Pete, she wasn’t in love with him. But I suppose she was happy for the first time with some one she could have… feelings are complicated, best not to have them honestly.

Jack has really long eyelashes. Just an observation.

That’s a lotta sugar, Danny boy. And Its not gonna make you any sweeter, I promise.

I love that he took the cup with him like he’s gonna drink it with THAT much sugar in it

Exposition, exposition, exposition.

Go away Anubis ya pain In the arse.

Oh the HOUSE

Have I said how much I hate that outfit cause I hate that outfit

It is a beautiful house to be fair but like…

Look at the PANIC in her eyes

I already have a problem with how they got engaged and the fact they stayed together after he STALKED HER.

Pete’s ability to control a situation and guilt trip her (literally he ran away and had her investigated by the FBI when she wouldn’t tell him about her work) reminds me of my ex. Which is probably why I hate him so damn much.

THE DECK SCENE

HER LOOKING AT HIS HOUSE

THE MUSIC

HE LOOKS GOOD IN DARK BLUE

I’M SORRY ITS ALL IN CAPS I’M TYPING AND WATCHING AND I’M SCREMING ON THE INSIDE DEAL WITH IT FAM I’M SORRY

THAT SMALL GRIN ON HIS FACE WHEN SHE SAYS SHE’S BEEN WORKING UP THE NERVE TO COME AND TALK TO HIM

TRUTH IS I’VE BEENTRYING TO WORK UP THE EVER FOR A LOT LONGER THAN THAT STOOP

ITS NOT GREAT JACK

YEAH BUT JACK HAS AN EVEN NCER HOSUE

SECOND THUGHTS

YES YOU ARE. GIANT MISTAKE INFACT

SHE’S REHEREDSE THIS SO MANY TIMES

KERRY FUCK OFFF NOW IS NOT THE TIME SWEETIE

THE BEER LOL

UES IT IS AWKKWARD

JACKS FACE OUCH

KERRY IS SO SWEET ASKING HER TO STAY FOR LUNCH

NO NOT DAD FUCK

Kerry caught him looking a little too long tbh

I’m not editing typos out of that btw it shows my rage

DAAAAAAD

JACOB YOU SWEET MAN

Oh sam honey I’m so sorry

I’m gonna cry again

FUCK OFF DANIEL JFC I literally do not give a shit

I only found out about Carmen’s death a couple months ago so I’m not gonna handle this well fam

Oh no

I’m typing and not looking again

Because Jacob is gonna tell her to go after Jack

I can’t breath

Six years ago

I’m not letting that go

It’s a continuity fuck up

Not that important but drives me nuts

No you’re not

He’s talking about jack

Come on sam he’s not dum

Everything you want is a house, a marriage and JACK

KERRY

LOVE OF MY LIFE

BREAKING UP WITH JACK FOR THE GREATER GOOD

I really like YOU Kerry

He’s so sad

He really liked Kerry

Retire please sir

Bye Kerry, I miss you already <3

If he told Sam he loved her right now she’d drop everything for him

He’s contemplating it

He’s confused but he’s thinking abut it because she’s stressed right now and ENGAGED but damn Kerry makes good points

More explanation and blah blah

Like if this was the main point of the story, there would be more talk of it outside of Daniel and we wouldn’t have just had 20 straight minutes if Sam and Jack pining over each other

Sorry can we talk about how PETE put a down payment on a house with OUT talking to her?? What if she didn’t like the neighbourhood?

Sorry I’m still mad about that

To be fair that green does look good on Daniel

Oma looks so proud

THEN STOP -B R E A K I N G- IT YOU GOOSE

Fuck sake woman

I’m so emotionally traumatised by this episode that I can’t remember half of what is added and half of whats in the 40 minute cut because I am repressing it lol. Obviously the scene with Kerry and the ones with Pete

NO JACOB

AND JACK BEING THERE FOR SAM

AND THEY MIGHT AS WELL HAVE SAID I LOVE YOU ALL OVER AGAIN

SORRY I NEED A TEN MINUTE BREAK TO CRY

OK I’m back

Sam looking at her like he wants to tell her he loves her breaks my tiny stone cold heart even more

He didn’t actually NEED to put his arm around her but they both actually really did need it

The way she rubs her thumb on his hand and leans into him I fucking can’t

AND MORE DANEIL FFS

Sorry I just feel like this was supposed to be the A plot, Dakara was the B plot and Sam/Jack was the C plot but it ended up Sam/Jack = A, Daniel and Anubis = B, Dakara = C

Took ya long enough to catch on, Danny boy

Good BYE PETE

You didn’t know shit from the beginning go home

That’s the same shade of blue Jack had on before… interesting

I mean it does have something to do with her father…

She will, babe, don’t stress

To be fair, to give him some credit, he took it like a champ

But also don’t be a creep ya know

Why does Sam’s jacket look awkward

She just looks awkward this entire sequence

INCOMING WORMHOLE

What, pray tell, is the point of the self destruct if it doesn’t blow up the gate? Isn’t that part of the point?

Daniel ya tit, that’s not gonna work

Fuck YEAH OMA

BEAT HIS FUCKING ASS

Now Daniel can come back to earth and be with Vala thanks

Literally the only time I like him is with Vala and then its with a push

This seems a little too convenient tbh

I know it was OMA but this episode just feels…. Disjointed

Ah but will you destroy it? Probably not knowing the Jaffa

I wonder if Sam and Jack have spoken by now. Clearly not the same day because different clothes.

I’d say two days since Dad?

Ack Naked!Daniel

Jack is so AWKWARD I LOVE HIM

SAM CAN’T LOOK AT HIM

BRA’TAC IS ENCOURAGING THIS BULL SHIT

F I S H I N G

I can believe it, Sam.

She’s leaning towards him

Aw that giggle

That look she gives him

They’re so happy

This was the perfect ending

It should have finished there

How much time passed between then and s9 I wonder

At least a month right because Sam had been away a month?

Well that was good.

Hurt my heart but it was good

Final notes:

Jacob and Janet deserved better

I want more Kerry

They should have stopped at s9

Sam and Jack are together now, TRY and convince me otherwise

I’m thinking of smutty fic ideas for the cabin please stop me

Thanks for coming along on that emotional roller coaster ride. Ended up being 9 pages of dot points so I’m sorry! But I feel like I’ve said my bit.

Oh one last thing

Fuck Pete 😊

[SG-1] 8.18: Threads

Gif by JumpingPuddles

Previously on SG1… Daniel got shanked (geddit) by Replicarter and we don’t know if it’s sticking this time. Also, Sam killed all the Replicators.

Jack… and a pretty lady? Hmm.

Aha! Jack doesn’t believe Daniel is dead. Smart man!!

Bright lights are bright. Daniel is at a Diner… wearing god awful clothes. Who even let him dress himself??

Is that… Oma?? Oma Desala is a waitress at a crappy diner? What fresh hell dimension is Daniel in??

Ugh Pete. Please go away Annoying Man.

Sam brought Pete to meet her Dads?? Selmak and Jacob are Not Impressed by this lug their daughter is dating. That look, right there. It says: Seriously sweetheart??

“How deep is the river if you cannot see the bottom?” “Deeper than the coffee in my mug!” Salty fella, isn’t he.

The Ascended Times, are you kidding me? That’s why the Ascended are omniscient? They read the paper?? Anubis is gonna try to retake Dakara? Well crap.

C’mon Jake, just admit you were hoping Sam and Jack would hook up.

Does he? Does Pete really make her happy? Or it it just that she’s tired of waiting for her life to begin?

So… Waffles or Die?

I get it, I finally get it. Oma is like your step mom who wants you to be healthy and happy, but is really tired of her colleagues treating her like shit for letting you get away with breaking the rules and throwing loud parties across the road from the local retirement home.

Oma does not like the guy in the black suit. Who is he?

So now we know there’s a weapon of mass destruction… it’s a sticking point among our tok’ra-tau’ri-jaffa alliance?

Ew. You want some coffee with your sugar Danny?

Daniel, if Oma hates Jim, then I would avoid him. Curiosity kills the Cat you moron!! Said it before, saying it again: archaeologists are like cats. Sans the nine lives.

Well, I think it’s a house. Oh hell… he bought a house? Without her input? And is planning for a dog? I like dogs personally, but the House??

Jack is cooking again… let me guess, the secret ingredient is beer.

Work up the nerve? Second thoughts?!? Yes!! YES YOU ARE!!

Is she about to confess… hang on, isn’t that the CIA woman??

Jack! Watch the beer dammit!!

What? What happened to Dad??

“What’s stopping you from ascending?” “I dunno” In which Daniel Jackson does what every teenager ever does.

What is happening Dad? Spill!! Whhaaat? No! Selmak can’t die!!

Wait… Jake and Selmak are both going to die?? ;w;

I AM NOT OKAY RIGHT NOW

Oma kicking out Jim… The hell is going on here??

This Kerry chick is cute… but dammit, I’ve been shipping Jack and Sam together for years.

Even she sees the vibe between Sam and Jack and she is very brave for making a choice like this. Lots of women would have stubbornly stuck about and tried to drive a wedge…

You mean to tell me that Anubis wiping out the galaxy is a punishment for Oma…

WHY ARE YOU BREAKING MY HEART DAMN YOU!?!?!?

Oh hell… Danny putting the pieces together. Jim is Anubis… Why am I not surprised? Evil looks like an elderly white man in a suit. Sounds about right.

Sam breaking up with Pete. Thank god.

Ohmygod, I feel bad for Pete now. WHY DO I FEEL BAD??

Oma is ready to Throw Down. OHMYGOD!!

Holy shit. To the tenth power.

What in the seven hells is happening here?

Okay, Bra’tac is esplaining to us!

Okay, now we think Daniel did it??

“Nope, wasn’t me!” “Anybody else here that?”

Lol, Jack considering the American Flag before choosing the SGC one…

WHOO! Naked Daniel in a Flag. :D

“It’s a… long story.”

There’s no fish in this pond, is there…

[milquetoast-on-acid]

Threads is on! 😯 Jacob is telling Sam to go for it with Jack. Immediately afterwards Kerry is breaking up with Jack because she's like "oh hey...I can see that you're in love with someone else. You really should do something about it." Jacob is like ... Just go break those regs. Kerry is like you can have your cake and eat it too. 😉

So what I don't understand is why all this obvious set up, only for them to not have any kind of a "getting together scene"? 👀 It's only vaguely implied by the dialogue.

I love Sam and Jack but it's such a let down for such great build up only for us to not actually see a freaking conversation between the two of them regarding their relationship.
