Episode Discussion

This is the first episode in which SG-1 do not travel through the Stargate.

The pink pheromone from Hathor's breath would later be revealed as being similar to nish'ta, which would be featured in "Seth".

The bathtub Hathor uses to breed Goa'uld symbiotes is a hydrotherapy whirlpool bath, often used in the locker rooms of pro sports franchises as physical therapy for players recovering from injury or a strenuous outing. Given the physical demands that are placed on off-world teams, it makes sense that the infirmary or locker room at the SGC would have at least one of these.

After the tub has caught fire, at approximately 40:33, you can see Hathor leaving the room through the door in the background. Just before this you can see the visual distortion of the flames from the energy shield and the subtle sound it makes.

This episode was heavily criticized, and the series' writers themselves acknowledged that it was one of the weakest episodes of the series, particularly during the season 8 episode "Citizen Joe" in which characters self-referentially point out the goofiest moments in the series.

This episode introduces the concept of Goa'uld queens.

This episode, along with "Thor's Hammer", is featured on the Region 2 release of Stargate SG-1: The Complete Second Season.

The scene where Hathor exits from her bathtub completely dry seems to be Hathor entering the tub, but played backwards.

StevenJDickie posted 5 months ago

Hathor refers to herself in the plural ("We are Hathor. You would be wise to unbind us and kneel before your goddess.") This is a convention of royalty, known as a "royal we," but was likely done by the show's producers simply for the camp of it.
