Episode discussed: Family
It’s your kid, Teal’c! Something’s gotta be done about your kid! That’s the gist of the news Bra’tac brings to the SGC this week. First of all, Apophis is alive (which the viewers knew but the characters only now learn), and second of all, he’s kidnapped Rya’c! This is all clearly a trap, but what are we gonna do, not save a kid? And maybe kill 9 or 10 of the very few serpent guards left in Apophis’ employ? Let’s go!
So we find that Drey’auc has moved up in the world, from a tent in the village of outcasts all the way to a lavish villa in the nice part of town. And Teal’c’s old friend, old trustworthy reliable Fro’tak, is living with her! Which is a whole situation Bra’tac has apparently heard absolutely nothing about! Anyway, Teal’c takes the news somehow even worse than you would think, nearly kills the guy, and then spends the whole rest of the episode insisting that the very obvious trap they’re falling into is not a trap at all. He’s having a bad day.
