the FIAD theory that's not quite right

Okay, so there’s this SG-1 Rewatch community redial_the_gate. Up this week is Forever in a Day. In the course of the discussion, I brought up that I had been working on a more radical interpretation of the “events” of the episode. Unfortunately that interpretation didn’t really stand up to much scrutiny even from me. I posted the nut shell version while mentioning my disappointment that it couldn’t really be the case. This led sg_fignewton to ask how I’d had it worked out. And because I was really, really proud of my theory--until it all came crashing down around me--I’ve decided to do separate post about it.

( Doomed Theory )

So, there’s the theory that I was so pleased with. I’m still kind of pleased with it. I just can’t in good conscience push it as likely. Feel free to point and mock. I can accept it with good grace (mostly). Of course if you want to tell me You’re so right! OMG!, I’ll accept that with good grace too. Mostly.

Imagine what I can do with a theory that I fully believe in.
