What does Teyla finding her people held prisoner by a maniac to use as lab rats have to do with the Nazis? The Nazis were for the supreme pure race and all that garbage, and that it was wrong to pollute the gene pool, but I don't think they did any genetic manipulation... Unless I missed that part of history class. What Ronon and Beckett said when? You from Cali? Her people held as lab rats? Torture? Yeah, think Nazis, they also did their own form of genetic manipulation in having women carrying babies from "pure" stock. Not as sophisticated as Michael but effective never the less. When Beckett was saying goodby to everyone, they (Rhonin and Beckett) embraced briefly and seemed to talk, the only goodby we were't able to hear. |

I am in absolutely in no way defending the Nazis, but I've gotta say, torture and horrible forced labor and unjust imprisonment are not exclusive to that regime. The Russians killed a hell of a lot more people (the Slavs, I believe) than the Nazis killed Jews. I don't recall that. *shrug* |

I don't recall that. *shrug* No the Nazis weren't the first, last, or only ones to utilize torture but it was the first thing that came to my mind while I was watching it, probably because of Michael's appearance (blond hair), his uniform, the scene set-up, Hollings shaved head, torture, etc., I still feel that this is the image they were trying to promote. I refuse to debate which regime is more morally degenerate. You may not remember the goodby, doesn't mean it didn't happen... |

I would say that is the sort of message they were sending. I do think TPTB were going for the whole "master race" thing with superiority at any cost. I don't think that is a debate that could be had, or that would have any constructive or positive result, beyond raising awareness. No I mean I remember the farewell, just not the hushed secretive part. |

Hollings shaved head That was probably only because he was playing Todd all the damn time There are certain links to the Nazi's though I guess, but you will find links with the Nazis to most bad guy schemes on the show if you look deep enough. |

Course, back then, they would only be held until they were eaten for nourishment to combat the cold winters. |

Thanks in advance for any help Well, Doc Lee, you always seem to find spoilers of episodes, so I am surprised you would be in trouble for a transcript. I'm glad to help. I found a transcript on ye olde Gateworld, and I provide you with this link in the hopes that you will find what you need: Gateworld Transcript by Callie Sullivan This post has been edited by KillerMarv: Apr 29th 2008, 11:48 AM |
