Stargate SG1 - Collateral Damage
Description
Colonel Mitchell becomes Collateral Damage when he's arrested for murder! And he's confessed!
This episode sparks some thought-provoking conversations about memory and whether this process is something you would want to undergo. Rachael makes a really interesting point that a person knowing the memories are implanted but still believing they are their own knowledge is a weird disconnect. There's also the point of having the knowledge of how to do something versus actually doing it can be very different things.
It is a little odd that an archaeologist and an alien Jaffa are the ones put in charge of looking over legal files. Even if they are alien documents, where's the lawyer? Major Davis? Someone?
Also, how exactly does the memory device work? They seem to contradict themselves as they explain it when first analyzing Mitchell's memories to figure out if his memory of Reya's murder is false or not.
As much as we really like this episode, at the end of it we're still left asking ourselves, "But how??"
