Season 8’s ‘Good to be King’ features the return of fan favorite Harry Maybourne. Circumstances lead Maybourne to play the role of native ruler ‘King Arkhan the First’ while Daniel and Teal’c play his retainers. Maybourne is trying to appease Trelak, First Prime to Lord Ares, who will soon come to reclaim the land Maybourne is pretending to rule over. From a servant, Trelak learns of a prophecy of his forces’ defeat, which peaks his interest but makes Maybourne very uncomfortable.
Meanwhile, Carter and O’Neill are on the puddle jumper ship, which is perhaps disabled. O’Neill encourages Carter to finish her work, since Daniel has warned him that trouble is on the way.
Finally an episode that actually sounds appealing to me!
