A very good episode. It was great to see Jonas again, and to check on the progress his world has made over the last two years. Kelowna is now a strange mix of futuristic technologies and old-fashioned ones, and the uneasy peace that was established in Homecoming is still holding -by a thread. And I also love the fact that the matter of the Naquadriah bomb that cost Daniel his life and Jonas his exile, has dire long-term repercussions. *That* 's follow-up, and with a clear message regarding nuclear weapons. I am not sure that we would do much better than the three ambassadors, though, but it is quite fun to watch them bicker while Daniel (ironically, their first victim) tries to help. As usual, we can only cheer when O'Neill barges in and says out loud what everybody was thinking.
But the really mind-boggling part of the plot is the one involving Kianna, where it turns out that Jonas's girlfriend has not *become* a Goa'uld: she was one from the start. (And the real Kianna apparently has no feelings for him) This is the first time that a Goa'uld has demonstrated real empathy for humans, so I was very disappointed when this particular plot got the Jolinar treatment and Kianna was written off the story.
