Why This Must Be Read: Tok'ra in genuine shades of grey, Daniel in sharp anthropologist mode, Jack at his snarky best, and some uncomfortable observations on reality...

This is an uneasy read, but a good one!


"Sabazius – Thalla's symbiote," he explained when Teal'c turned an inquisitive eyebrow in his direction, "has lived on Earth. Within Egeria's court. And he has a deep understanding of anthropology."

"What does that mean?" Captain Blasdale crossed his arms. "And how does it impact these negotiations?"

"It means," Daniel adjusted his glasses, his standard way of trying to disguise how much another person irritated him, "that the Tok'ra have been studying us in ways that we can't hope to match in our study of them."

"That makes sense." Sam's bright eyes speared Daniel. "They have age and technology on their side. But any knowledge of Earth has got to be centuries out of date, doesn't it? I mean, they may understand humans of the early centuries, during Egypt and then Rome's dominance, but any Goa'uld – or Tok'ra – presence on Earth was removed before double digits CE."

"We've come a long way, baby," Jack agreed.

"Actually, we haven't."

Daniel drew the disbelieving stares of each individual. That was okay. He was used to it.
