Singularity

DVD, Stargate SG-1 S1 (Singularity)

An overly sentimental tale of Carter getting attached to some little girl, who has 'a terrible secret' as the write-up would probably have it. I wasn't too impressed with the slow beginning, radiation suits, and finding out what happened, but the ending is another story. You buy that Carter and this child have formed an attachment, and you want Carter to go back and be with the little girl as she dies. Of course it turns out that Carter figured out that she'd be alright, but who could fail to find that shot of the Major closing the huge door on the little, defenceless girl, upsetting!

There are a few little ticks between the characters and as usual they make a not very clever story much more watchable. First mention of Nierte (I have a feeling this is one of the system lords), and Dr. Warner (played by the guy from an episode of Season One 'Smallville') is in it. I have the feeling this Cassandra did live with Dr. Frasier and comes into it again later, but I might be mixing this up with 'ER'. Maybe.
