SGA 1x15, "Before I Sleep," aka: the ep that ate my brain.

[kageygirl]

I've seen this episode so many times that it's almost troubling. And by "almost troubling," I mean "borderline obscene." And yet? Can still babble about it. Freak.

::watching the teaser. Boy is wandering through living room to get a beer from the kitchen::
Rodney: "... preferably one with a balcony, but I'm not married to it."
Boy: Who's the gay guy?
kagey: ::falls off sofa, giggling madly:: He's not, but we like him with the head military guy there.
Boy: Wait, he's not supposed to be overtly gay?
kagey: ::falls off sofa again. wonders why she bothered getting back up.:: No, no, he's not. He's just, uh, emphatic? ::tries and fails to think of a way to explain Rodney in ten words or less.::
Boy: He just said "married to it." ::gives kagey a dubious look, but she's giggling too much. wanders back into bedroom with beer::

Also--the Time Jumper! It only took me six or seven viewings to get it. John says he could do with an "instruction manual," and touches the panel, and bam! The ship takes him...

... back to the time where he can find the guy who built the thing.

So, all right, it's like a 3-candlepower lightbulb I've got here. But it's mine.

The Atlanteans say they found her ship on the ocean floor. I'm telling you, they were all dead, and the Atlanteans (who built the tech the sarcophagus was based on, yes?) brought Elizabeth back. But only her.

...

::facepalms. beats head against handy apartment wall.::

Okay, um, three different fics and four icons (no, five, I got one from mmmchelle) from one episode are really more than sufficient, and I'm going to go drink until I decide that the idea I just had is unnecessary. And it can go join the other BIS idea that I've been resisting. They can keep each other busy while I attempt to incur enough brain damage to forget them.

My hubby was snoring on the couch or I daresay I'd have heard the same thing from him. Heh. Esp when Shep follows that up with "Shut up a minute" while he goes to see what Ford is so upset about.

Married. Married.

I've watched this on a lot too. So no more talk of insanity. Hey, whose jacket is this?

The whole jumper thing troubled me too. I decided they cut it for length, leaving out the part where the jumper gives John a video tutorial. But I like your explanation too.

You are resisting the call of more fic? Noooooo! Put that damned liquor down and get thee to a keyboard! Please.

Say, how is the whole "blue drink" thing treating you? I haven't heard. Have you said?

I think it's so cute that Rodney calls him while he's working. *g*

I was thinking about the size remark when they're apartment hunting. Is Rodney afraid he's going to have to sweep and mop?

And Rodney just totally takes it in stride.

I hit the first one on my list (I have notes *g*), and then my week went totally weird. But I've got supplies for the coming week, and high hopes. *g*
