Watched the last episodes of Stargate the past week.

I watched Enigma the 16th stargate episode from the first season. In this story the SG-1 finds some near dead humans on a planet.

The planet is being destroyed because of changes in the planet's orbit. The humans gave some advanced technology to another human inhabited planet in their solar system. The other humans used the technology to make war and destroyed the second planet. This causes the problem with the first planet. As it was destroyed by volcanos and gases the first humans escaped to another world.

The humans SG-1 found were the last team to leave. So SG-1 in saving them from the gases and volcanos took them back to earth where they are kept prisoners because they could not return. They object and in the end they do not share their technology with the SG-C.

The SG-C arrange to have them contact the Nox so they can stay with a similarily advanced civilisation. This contacting the Nox and letting the advanced humans leave is against the wishes of Mayborn who wants to keep the advanced humans on earth. The president orders SG-C to turn them over to Mayborn so only Daniel can help them escape SG-C because only Daniel will not face a court marshal for disobeying orders.

Again technological transfer is dealt with in terms of the military technology example.

Sam and one of the advanced humans fall in love briefly. Of course they fall in love with their mutual scientific interests as the catalyst.
