Selmak was frustrating, but never a douche, in my opinion.
In fact, Jacob had such a strong impact on Selmak that they became almost a liability as far as the other tokra were concerned. He was too tempted to ignore thousands of years of protocol and precedent to assist the SGC.
Chevron 5 encoded! Let’s gooooooo
Chevron 6… Encoded
Unscheduled offworld activation
It’s fucking Baal again
Close the iris!

Open the iris a little bit.

Flick the bean button faster!
Another one?!
“Okay, gang, we gotta make sure we get ALL of them this time. If you leave even one it’ll just make more.”
All flash and no…photo?
- Insolence.- Impudence.
- No, tuna.
Chevron 7 Locked
Right in the middle of his backswing!
Other place: “UNSCHEDULED OFF-WORLD ACTIVATION!”
(Horn sounds)
“Wait: Is there a sunspot‽”
I love the movie visuals so much more. The woosh looks now detailed but it’s the vortex in the back that really sets it apart imo.
Prairie-dogging.
You technically don’t have to say Locked on the last one, but it’s Standard Operating Procedure by Walter to do so.
Fun fact: the actor ad-libbed in “locked” instead of “encoded” originally, and it worked well enough that it became a thing right then, pretty much.
Gary Jones is a treasure. Him, Peter DeLuise, (and the very rare Chris Judge) are easily the best of the DVD audio commentaries.
Are we long enough into the streaming era to completely give up on a revival of cast and crew commentary alt audio tracks? We are. 😞

After the intergalactic chevron 8 was discovered, surely it is mandatory.
Chevron 7… Encoded?
You fool! Chevron 7 is locked not encoded!
Unless…actually I can’t remember. Maybe it still gets encoded if you’re going to another galaxy or something? Anyone remember?
Yes, that’s why I put the ?
The first time they dialed another galaxy was the first time jack got the library of congress downloaded into his brain.
Best comment of this entire thread! 🏆
Chevron 8 is locked!
Chevron 9, multiverse is locked.
Wasn’t Chevron 9 used for the Destiny? IIRC it was because Destiny was moving, so they needed a velocity coordinate.
