Episode 14 - Ernest Goes To Heliopolis

Episode covered: The Torment of Tantalus

Kree to all of you cool jazz cats (?), and welcome to this slightly 40s-infused Stargate episode. This week, remember Catherine? From the movie? We check up on her and her old boyfriend, whom it turns out oops, we may have possibly stranded on an alien planet 50 years ago. Our bad.

So we head there and what do we find? Lore! Piles and piles of lore! More lore than you could possibly absorb in a lifetime, not that it’s gonna stop Daniel from attempting the archive binge to end them all. Literally, as it turns out, as everybody’s favorite humanities experts starts to err on the side of fuck my life if I can just get to all this content. Out of this adventure, we get a slight consolidation of two separate plot threads from past episodes (not that you’d know this yet), the first allusion to a BIG plot thread for later down the line, and we learn literally everything we’re ever gonna know about the Furlings. Except their name. Which I just told you. You’re welcome.
