THOR'S HAMMER - Eposode #9
Daniel Jackson has figured that the Vikings might make a powerful ally,
so they travel to a planet called "Cimmeria", in the hopes of finding
them. While they are there Jackson and Carter meet a woman who was once
taken over by a Goa'uld, but no longer has one. O'Neill and Teal'c
meanwhile, are transported to a labyrinth, where they encounter an
"Unas", the first Goa'uld.
NOTES OF INTEREST:
- The stargate system may have been built by an ancient race other than the Goa'uld.
- There are two kinds of "star gods", the tyrants (eg. Goa'ulds) and the culture bearers (eg. Vikings)
- In Norse mythology, Thor was a friend to humans and protected them from the Etins, powerful enemies of mankind (Goa'ulds).
- All Jaffa know the coordinates for Cimmeria to ensure no Goa'uld goes there.
- "GFT" item uses Sagan Institute drawings to represent Earth.
- The scanning beam from the monolith detects Goa'ulds and sends them to the Labyrinth and Thor's Hammer to be removed from the hosts.
- Thrudvang is Thor's home in the stars.
- Midgard is the ancient home planet (Earth) from which Thor first brought the Cimmerians.
- The hologram of Thor identified himself as "Supreme Commander of the Asgard Fleet".
- High Counsel of Asgard designated Cimmeria a safe world for developing sentient species by unanimous decree, era 40.73.29.
- Hall of Mjollnir is the location of Thor's Hammer in the underground Labyrinth from which only the host can leave alive.
- Kendra consults with the Valkyrie who speak through the thunder.
- Once a Jaffa carries a Goa'uld larva, it acts as his immune system.
- Kendra is from Jebanna where she was captured when Marduk raided the temple where she was raised, and was taken by the Goa'uld. She came to Cimmeria and was freed by the hammer 10 years ago, proving that something of the host survives.
- Unas was the first Goa'uld host, born of the same primordial waters as the Goa'uld, but became a myth. He has great regenerative powers, can use long periods of sleep to survive, and may have been in the Labyrinth for 1000 years.
- Other, older species have been used as Goa'uld hosts before humans.
- When Thor's Hammer was destroyed, the cave will be sealed as protection from Goa'ulds.
