SG-1 helps to evacuate the Tok’ra to a new base — but matters are complicated when a spy reveals their location to Apophis. The team attempts a daring plan to take out the Goa’uld’s powerful fleet.
“Exodus” Facts:
- SG-1’s plan to explode the Vorash star by dialing the Stargate to a black hole is a major call-back: the black hole planet (P3W-451) threatened Earth back in Season Two’s “A Matter of Time.” Because of the severe time dilation, that planet still hasn’t completely broken up (or its Stargate been destroyed) in the two years since.
- The bombing of the surface of Vorash signals the introduction of a never-before-seen class of Goa’uld vessel: the Al’kesh, a mid-range bomber that would be featured regularly through the rest of the show’s run.
- Near the episode’s end Jack is hit with a single blast from a zat gun, but manages to remain conscious — a feat rarely seen on the show, since the first shot from the weapon is designed to incapacitate its target.
- Director David Warry-Smith took charge of 11 episodes over the course of the show’s first four seasons. This was his last — though he would return to the lot to direct the first episode of Stargate Atlantis following the pilot.

watching new end of season one hope I live to see the new STAR GATE See IMDb FOR NEW INFO
Considering there is only one stargate at the black hole, shouldn’t this mean they would never be able to dial the black hole again? Yet, they do reference giving the address to an enemy and I’m sure it is referenced/used another time after that.

Not sure about that, when the star exploded the Stargate was most likely destroyed by the heat.
They can handle a lot of force but I doubt an exploding sun is one.
When the Stargate exploded on this side it may of translated the energy through the wormhole but not destroyed the other one.
I like this two-parter set. The idea of blowing up a star…awesome. Though I have to say, i was not keen on the new Apophis…too corny.
