Memorable Quotes

Camulus: "While I never disclosed its location, I once made the mistake of bragging that I had found the device at a meeting of the System Lords."
O'Neill: "Hard to believe, you bragging(!)"


O'Neill: "Well, I’m not really sure. Here’s some irony for you: Carter – have this thing fixed like that. No offence there, Siler."
Siler: "Uh, none taken, sir."
O'Neill: "So, why don't you just send her on through, before you know it you'll have old camel ass back in your grubby little mitts."
Ba'al: "You dare mock me!?"
O'Neill: "Ba'al, Come on, you should know........of course I dare mock ya."

Notes

Wiki.png
Stargate Wiki has 7 images from Zero Hour.
  • The bald technician at the end of the episode is Pierre Bernard, graphics designer for the Late Night with Conan O'Brien show. He had a say on the show mentioning that Stargate SG-1 was better without Daniel Jackson. The Stargate producers saw this and offered him a cameo, naming the character "O'Brien" as a tongue-in-cheek reference.
  • This episode shares its name with a Star Trek: Enterprise episode.
  • After Dr. Lee jokingly mentions that the plant has not eaten anyone, O'Neill calls him "Seymour". This is a reference to Little Shop of Horrors, which followed a man-eating plant and its keeper, Seymour.

Goofs

  • In the final scene, O'Neill has the single star of a Brigadier General on his dress shirt, but the insignia on his jacket is that of a Colonel.
