I've recently started working my way through the first season of Stargate SG-1. The episodes have mostly been of good quality but nothing has really stood out as being exceptional. This episode was different. I felt that the story was original, thought-provoking and well executed.
The pace at which the events develop was slow enough that you had time to put yourself in the position of the Tollan and wonder about their technology, and wonder why they felt the way that they did. This is gently explained to us through Narim's interactions with Carter and also through Omoc's dialogue with the others. The conclusion left me with a good feeling and it makes me optimistic about future episodes of the show.
