Season 4 Episode 18: The Light
It's pretty obvious at this point that Daniel has an addictive personality. Sarcophagi, boy light, and now a sweet lava lamp has his dopamine firing on all cylinders. The gang go to the planet (aka one room) where this lava lamp is, and to be fair to Daniel, this lava lamp is pretty goddamn sweet. They all forget their D.A.R.E. Training for this one.
Alas a man child is there, and when he relates his situation of being the neglected child of lava lamp addicted parents who are now dead, this episode suddenly gets real. I can't handle this right now. I need some of that sweet lamp. . .

Season 4 Episode 17: Absolute Power
The SG Gang find the Golden Child and bring him back to base. Very Child-Centric Episode until Daniel is given some Boy-Light and proceeds to become Giga-Chad of the early aughts, fucking over the Tokra AND the rest of the world with his new found knowledge.
Actually, don't worry about the summary. This episode don't have a point, other than the producers giving Michael Shanks lots of air time to convince him to stay. That's our theory.

Season 4 Episode 16: 2010
Come with us to the year 2010, where Sam has married some douchebag, Teal'c leads a cult, Dr. Fraz has literally nothing to do, Jack is a mountain man, and Daniel is. . .Daniel. Some time travel shenanigans occur, but the real star of the show is Glasses, who has the most lines he's ever had. But even that kind of sucks, because he's basically a Narc.

Season 4 Episode 15: Chain Reaction
We finally get to see Special Forces McNeil use his Special Force-fulness as he tries to help Daddy from being blackmailed into retirement by those F&%K-Wads at the NID. He needs help though, and who better than our favorite slime pustule, MAYBOURNE!
After cashing in some favors, O'neil gets Maybourne a hall pass from federal prison, they hack some back doors, give the slip to the NID, and crash Senator Kinsey's party. Eventually, they get Daddy reinstated.
Oh, and meanwhile, Daddy's replacement, General Stepdaddy, almost radiates the entire god damn planet with his ineptitude. THANK GOD DADDY IS BACK!!

Season 4 Episode 14: The Serpent's Venom
The Gang go all Intrigue Noir as they set up an incredibly dangerous plan to set Apophis and Haru'ur against(?) each other? Or with(?) each other? The plan is as messy as the electron cloud of mines surrounding the planet they fly to in J-Mack's ship to pull it all off.
Meanwhile Teal'c foments revolution, but is betrayed and captured. Despite this, (and being hellishly tortured) he is able to propagandize the turncoat Jaffa onto his side because Teal'c is the real Top G.
Well, they ALL meet at the mine planet, and the plan goes pretty well. Teal'c is saved, a bunch of Apophis's ships get blown up, Heru'ur is probably(?) killed. And yet despite all this, J-Mack is a real fracking downer, and I guess it was the worst(?) possible outcome? I don't know, it's all Phoenician to me.

Season 4 Episode 13: Absolute Power
The Golden Child Part 2 opens with said Child, the Harsesis, meeting the Gang, and being taken to the mountain, where he gives Daniel some Boy Light to the forehead, injecting him with hidden knowledge, and starting him on that Sigma Grind Set to building some sweet alien tech to beat the Gou'ldies.
Cut to ONE WHOLE YEAR LATER and Daniel is Top G, with full control over the weapon, and decides to blow up the Kremlin instead, and be a real dick.
Or did he. . .he. . . he. . . he. . .

Major Davis cries alot inside, too.

Season 4 Episode 11: Point of No Return
Some dude from Sex and The City is here, knowing WAY TOO MUCH about the Stargate from some Netscape Conspiracy Chat rooms. O'Neil goes to see what his deal his, while Sam and Daniel play I Spy, and Teal'c wears a shit ton of hats and chills on a Sex Bed.
Turns out, however, that the dude is pretty much right about everything, and is also an alien who landed here with three of his compatriots who seem to despise his ass, and have been keeping him on amnesiac meds. Dicks.
This is our longest episode so far. I don't know why I wrote that. GOOD EPISODE!

Season 4 Episode 10: Beneath the Surface
The Gang has joined a Cult! Rules: No one can be friends, Carter gets no bread, and Burlap tunics are the acceptable meta.
PLOT TWIST!: The Gang had their memories erased by some douchebag, and they need to dream of the glowing puddle, and have Gotcha "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" epiphanies to remember themselves. Then they can go home, and perhaps begin the revolution of their fellow, prolateriat workers. Will they: Yes.

Season 4 Episode 9: Scorched Earth
We got a real bind on our hands here. Jack's solution is to blow it up. Daniel's solution is to talk to it. Carter follows Jack's orders. And Teal'c stands in LITERALLY the same spot of grass the entire episode, surrounded by a bunch of hippies who have never heard of Visine Eye Drops.
