They never addressed the fact that running at super speed, their clothes would disintegrate. Of course the show being PG, you couldn't have the stars running around naked.
Wow, that must've been one heck of a brawl at the end - good job they didn't let us see it, what with all the broken bodies, damaged tables & chairs, the collapsed pooltable, etc. ;)
It just occurred to me, they are inside of a military base essentially and I know they have a cafeteria, I’m sure that to do to this type of service they provide they must have 24 seven food preparation available to on-site staff, especially considering the gate is open 24 seven going off world etc., why didn’t they just go to the cafeteria to eat whatever they want there. Of course I’m sure O’Malleys has better food :-)
This was one of the most powerful technologies in the entire series. So what if they could only be used once? Just give them to a different person every time you have an impossible mission to tackle. It was stupid that these were just never used again.
The show literally brings up and picks on this as a meta joke at least three more times throughout it's run. The writers definitely didn't forget, and you can tell it bugged them to keep bringing it up. Not as much as the "Reproductive organs" line though. That gets ripped on at LEAST four times.
@@telavivjake Trying to remember the exact instances, but it's usually just Carter throwing out a "Like those upgrade devices we found!" comment, referencing the episode. However they are the basis for a gag sequence in that 200 episode, that one I definitely remember. I'm pretty sure they point out they could have just passed them to other people in that one, too.
@@telavivjake SG-1 are essentially the most trusted, loyal, reliable, and savvy little group of people in the entire organization. They've earned some allowance for their quirks. But these devices made them unreliable, unpredictable, uncontrollable, dangerous. All three test users ultimately ended up so reckless - and having the devices fail at bad moments - that they were nearly killed. And they're built with alien tech which is not understood, it could have other unanticipated dangers. Imagine how badly things could go if these were equipped (even once) on less dependable people.
@@thefurrybastard1964 The devices do seem to work kinda like Steroids because they increase hunger levels and stamina by quite a bit and as someone who was on over 100mg a day to get rid of a post-transplant disease i can confirm just one of those is VERY hard to deal with
i think considering they saved earth plenty times over i dont think something to eat is all that much to ask for further more that guy defintly had it comming w/ karma like if it were not them they probly possibly just as well be embarrised by some one else
Just re-watched this episode. So did they eat the steaks really fast? If so how did no one notice? Also I believe that is a new rule. Never play pool with a theoretical astrophysicist.
Considering they losing their control of natural instincts and civilized behavior, I´m surprised that there was no serious snogging between Sam and Jack.
They are both soldiers. That would be the last thing they do. Even in the time loop episode, Jack resigns BEFORE he kisses Sam, even tho he knows that only he will remember he done that.
I've always wondered what she meant when she said "O'Malley's is in town". The restaurant is a building, when is it not in town?
“Earth, steaks. There’s a difference?”
This and the golfing through the stargate is the charm this show was famous for.
Now they are all fat and old 😢

Did they ever get their food?
I'm sure they wouldn't have had the stamina to take out the opponent and his cronies if they didn't have their quick meal first.
Surprised tealc was absent from this scene

"and diet soda"
0:25 this ain't stargate :P
Seriously. O’Malleys in town rocks! Classic SG1. Thanks Algorithm!
No, O'Neil; the real cliché is at 3:08
They became vampires
why would anyone have their office in the hallway?
Hammond: "I thought the devices were supposed to enhance them physically, not make them stupid."
Like strength, intelligence levels can fluctuate from time to time. Lol
Word has it. Their still discussing who pays the check...As we know the losers always pay for damages....As it pays to be a winner....
Funny !
The show is telling me there's NOTHING in the mess these 3 can raid and eat?
Nothing good.
Let's be real, out of all people these 3 wouldn't even need those alien upgrades to beat some bar chump's asses. Especially Jack and Carter.
But I believe Daniel might need help holding this guys back just to keep it one on one.
I just bench watched the hole series and love this show made me have a different perspective in life
Indeed

Yeah, when the tokra asked about them after the mission and were upset the devices were destroyed I was totally on their side.
Why does O’Malley’s look so fancy outside and so average inside? ;)
I recall this episode, pretty funny all the way around.
One of my favourite episodes. There has to be an alternate universe where they managed to get the bands to work permanently.
Dang that's actually an incredible idea. That would effectively make SG1 a superhero team!!
@@thomasworden4139 Or the next major threat to humanity. The bands do seem to alter the user's personality subtly.

2:45 Carter looks at him with a face that basically screams “really? You?”
What episode is this?
Upgrades. Season 4 Episode 3 :)
It is November 2020. And I am still missing me some SG1.
Hey, they started it...
Even if he’s not hopped up on alien steroids, one should not call Daniel Jackson a geek.
Yeah, he's seen more combat than some soldiers. Marines too.
i think considering they saved earth plenty times over i dont think something to eat is all that much to ask for further more that guy defintly had it comming w/ karma like if it were not them they probly possibly just as well be embarrised by some one else
Funny thing is, Jack could still have taken those two guys next to him 2 on 1 without the enhancements
Considering he's gone hand-to-hand with Jaffa? Yeah.
They should have had the 20 lb. turkey for an appetizer , with stuffing .
Just re-watched this episode. So did they eat the steaks really fast? If so how did no one notice? Also I believe that is a new rule. Never play pool with a theoretical astrophysicist.
Carter counts as a practical one after blowing up a sun
@@mbr5742 You blow up one star and no one lets you forget it...
It would have been so cool to see them go on some missions like this.
The literally destroyed a brand new class of goul'd ship and stole some refined naquada.
02:55 “Well, this is a (cliche)” Love how meta Jack is in this series
The irony is that he's been emulated and imitated so often that he himself (along with his lines) have become cliche.
Still laughing that they had their moments as Speedsters.
Burt Reynolds would be proud!

I miss this show :(
You could have hear a pin drop when tommy stop and locked the door
Diet soda like the taste
Wish they would have shown a few more throw scenes LOL
LMAO!!!
I thought making fun of people’s interests was casually made fun of now
Can run super fast, still uses the elevator.
This is the episode that Daniel "M. Shanks " breaks free from being a nerd.
I would crawl over broken shitty glass just to sniff a chair Amanda Tapping at that age had farted on.
The insane speeds they would have to run, to not be seen lol. Just lulz
