[3:00] So the guy is around all of Stargate. He is a part of the team. It's a name we're going to get to know. It's a name. You're going to hear it several times.
[3:08] Cool. Now, in this episode, there's a bunch of new characters, not necessarily ones you're going to see a bunch more that are ever going to come back or anything like that. But this particular group of characters that are guest actors and things like that, they're all named after Green Lantern characters. Okay. Okay. so particularly their last names not necessarily the first names but their last names are all green lantern characters i'm not going to pick up on a lot of that i never got into the green lantern thing either because marvel is better than dc 100 100 disagree with that you can send all of your emails to jeff at stargate for the first time.com and he's going to say yee-haw.

Brent will share any of the sci-fi messages that he's found. So Brent, let's dive into the curse.
[4:45] You.
[4:53] Oh, it looks very Egypt-y. Mm-hmm. I've got one word in my prediction, right? Mm-hmm. That's what I should start doing, is like just going by the words. We finally have a chance to do a resonance scan on the Osiris chart. Great, great. Osiris. Another couple of weeks, and we never would have known what was inside. Well, we could always break the seal and take a look. Blasphemy well half joking you coming yeah i just have a few things i'll see you down there all right yeah don't trust this guy no immediately don't trust this guy he's gonna open them all, time out jeff do you remember what happened last time we found canopic jars wasn't that um what's her face hathor hathor yeah she was in the canope jar yeah and that didn't turn out well for anyone including us as viewers, It is interesting to be back to the Egyptians there now, you know? It feels like a... Almost like a step backwards in a way. Backwards? Not backwards, but back. Tilks into this stuff. That's why he's reading it. Right. A great week is in store for you. You'll be going on a trip. Let me see that. He did that in the movie. That's right. In the newspaper. Uh-huh. Uh-oh. He's dead. My archaeology professor. Oh.
[6:21] Was that dude? That we just saw? Yeah. Because the other dude used the Osiris statue to gack him. So, Jeff, you got Egyptian old Daniel colleague. Yeah. All I need now is a curse. I nailed it. Indiana Jones, man. Here we go. Somebody puts on a hat. If somebody puts on a hat or has a whip, I win. He was like a father to me. Daniel's BS meter is going through the roof right now. He's like. Right. And some of his bitter disappointments. Oh, yeah. Just stare at Daniel when you say that. Yeah. Some history there. I'll remember him always as a... This guy, 23. Dedicated archaeologist. Kind and generous man. He sounds so bored. And a true friend. I think he's trying to sound like stoic a little bit, but he just sounds bored. It's like trying to sound sad, but not. Yeah, that's fair. Oh, I like that shot. That's a good composition. good job andy makita there's a reason to get that guy on great steven uh yeah you.
[7:41] Know i still can't believe he's gone what have you been up to uh i've been busy i've been traveling i've looked for signs of you out there in the fringes there's been no papers no research projects it's like you fell off the face of the earth stepped off actually something like that as i recall the last time i saw you you were giving a lecture to an empty room, oh yeah well it was full when i started well maybe the world just wasn't ready to hear that If the pyramids were built by aliens, or was it men from Atlantis? Stephen, please. Yes, Stephen, please. Why did you come? If you're looking for closure, Daniel, I'd say you're a little late. Thanks, Stephen. It's good seeing you. Yeah. Always a pleasure, Stephen. There you go. Stephen should have just flicked him off at that point. Right. Like, if this was real life, he just went... He just did in the car, because he's too much of a wuss. So are you doing anything, or...? No. How are you? Yes, you are. Hello. Daniel's got a thing for redheads. Actually, I don't know if that's true or not, but he just has to say for women. Maybe we should be counting Daniel girlfriends.
[8:49] More than that. Let's just say that what the world knows about ancient Egypt barely scratches the surface. Of course, he offers no proof as he says this. He's just like, it's amazing. Right? and I'm in the middle of it. Just trust me. Right. You finally ready to take me up on that fishing trip? Actually, sir, I have a few projects on the go. Fishing trip. Are you really trying to tell me you'd rather work in the dark, dank... You and Dilker gonna go fishing? Sit on a dock with your feet perched up, sipping a cold one, and casting for that ever-elusive crappy? Colonel O'Neill, I would like to go fishing with you. Yes. Have a good time. To each his own. Her. I meant her. Say it, say it. Her. So Teal, this would be great. Just you and me. What do you say? Come on. The Lunes. Don't forget the Lunes.
