      Trip also gets pregnant in Star Trek: Enterprise from, like, shaking hands with an alien or something.

                NSFW:

                Enterprise spoiler, kinda

                This is what actually happened in the episode. Trip was under the impression that this was a game or something, where players placed their hands into a dish of pebbles that did… something. What he did not understand was that this was actually a ritual that involved transmitting genetic material from one individual to another.

        Oh yeah and she does NOT make it clear to him that what they’re doing is sex (although I suppose you could interpret that as a cultural miscommunication). She’s just like oh I didn’t think you could get pregnant though I didn’t think it was a big deal oopsie!

        That show was just soooo horny all the way through.

        Dipping hands into a bowl of glass beads, IIRC.

        And then he goes off in engineering about how dangerous a man lift is, because if you hold onto what are clearly hand rails, a support will chop your hand off, and some dipshit is like “Who would put their hands there?” as if you wouldn’t grab at the waist high rails riding a lift in a ship that might pitch and roll. They try to play it like he’s hormonal but it’s a solid point.

      Thanks, I am not hip to the lore. I just remember looking up the meaning behind the song “Immaculate Misconception” by Motionless in White years ago, and must have misremembered the details when making this post.

      I’ll just say the title is referring to Vala, then.

    These 3 need to be starring cast in another SciFi serial together, and let’s bring on Amanda Tapping to direct.

    Who’s on that? Brad, do you have the bandwidth you take this project on?

    So does this imply that the Guald don’t know about artificial insemination? Does that further imply they are mainly vegetarian?

      Can really only infer about Jaffa from this scene. However, since Goa’uld know everything their host knows, and have genetic memory, I’m certain they are aware of it

        And Jaffa certainly were not strict vegetarians. Teal’c’s favorite food was turkey.

        EDIT: As for Goa’uld, the only time I can remember seeing any eat at all was Nerus, who was gorging on chickens/turkeys.

            Ah, right. S5E16 “Last Stand”

            Definitely not vegetarians, and that even arguably makes them cannibals. The only way you could argue that is not cannibalism is because it’s technically the human host who is eating that Goa’uld here. It’s not a Goa’uld itself eating the Goa’uld.

    Typed a comment about Claudia Black but then noticed rule 3, so I will instead politely upvote and move on.
