Summary
SG-1 is the designation for the flagship team of the Stargate Command (SGC). Its history is the subject of the television series, Stargate SG-1.
Season One
During the pilot of the series, 1.01-1.02 "Children of the Gods", SG-1 was composed of three individuals made known to us:
These individuals went to Chulak and became imprisoned by the Goa'uld System Lord Apophis. They were rescued by Teal'c, one of Apophis' First Prime Jaffa warriors. Teal'c helped all of the SGC personnel and their fellow prisoners escape Chulak and return safely to Earth.
At the conclusion of the episode, 1.03 "Enemy Within", Teal'c was given the fourth position in SG-1, making it an unspecified standard that all SG teams would have four members.
Seasons Two Through Five
Col. Jack O'Neill was exposed to the knowledge of the Ancients in the episode, 2.16 "The Fifth Race", and, as a consequence, was able to load the SGC computer system with stargate addresses unknown to the Goa'uld. He also met the Asgard, who saved him by removing the knowledge before it killed him. Jack fell in love in the episode, 3.17 "A Hundred Days", when he had given up chances of ever returning home after the stargate on the planet he was visiting was buried by a meteor impact. He was forced to examine his feelings for his fellow teammates and realized that he cared more than he should for them in the episode, 4.05 "Divide And Conquer".
Dr. Daniel Jackson's wife, Sha're, had a son by Apophis in the episode, 2.09 "Secrets", and died in the episode, 3.10 "Forever In A Day". Daniel found the boy on the planet Kheb, but decided to let the Ascended Being Oma Desala take care of him in the episode, 3.20 "Maternal Instinct". He saw the boy, named Shifu, in the episode, 4.17 "Absolute Power", but again had to let him go.
Captain Carter was taken by force to be the host of the Tok'ra symbiote Jolinar in the episode, 2.02 "In The Line Of Duty". Jolinar died saving Carter's life, but Carter was left with fragments of Jolinar's memories and feelings, as well as the ability to sense the presence of other Goa'uld symbiotes. Her father, General Jacob Carter, was dying of cancer in the episode, 2.09 "Secrets", and she persuaded him to became the host to the Tok'ra symbiote Selmak in the episode, 2.12 "The Tok'ra Part 2". She was promoted to Major in the episode, 3.03 "Fair Game".
Teal'c nearly lost his son, Rya'c, to Apophis in the episode, 2.08 "Family". He, himself, nearly lost his life on several occasions during these seasons. He was captured by Apophis and brainwashed into thinking that he was a loyal servant to the Goa'uld once more in the episode, 5.01 "Enemies", but was forced to realize his true path, the one to free his people from slavery, in the episode, 5.02 "Threshold".
SG-1 remained composed of the same four individuals for the first five years of the series. However, in the episode, 5.21 "Meridian", Dr. Daniel Jackson was exposed to a lethal dose of radiation which resulted from a lab accident on the planet Kelowna. Dr. Jackson was given the opportunity to ascend to a higher plane of existence by Oma Desala to escape death and to join the enlightened. He accepted this offer.
Season Six
Several replacements were attempted to fill the void that Dr. Jackson left behind. Captain Hagman was the ninth recruit who tried to fill Dr. Jackson's shoes. The remaining members of SG-1 were not very welcoming of any person assigned to replace their fallen comrade, so they quickly booted the poor linguist out.
Through much persistence and Colonel O'Neill's dislike for the possibility of having a Russian teammate, Jonas Quinn joined SG-1 in the episode, 6.02 "Redemption Part 2". Jonas was a native of Kelowna, the very planet which was saved by Dr. Jackson's heroic sacrifice to prevent the radioative core of a bomb from going critical. The Kelownans were planning to use this bomb in a world war. Jonas was witness to Dr. Jackson's courage and after realizing that his government was not honorable in trying to blame Daniel for the accident, calling it sabotage, he defected to Earth, bringing a sample of the radioactive material naquadria with him in hopes that shield technology could be developed to protect his people from the Goa'uld.
Jack was exposed to the plague that killed the Ancients and was given a Tok'ra symbiote named Kanan to save his life in the episode, 6.04 "Frozen". Kanan forced Jack to rescue his lover Shallan from Ba'al's fortress, but they were captured and Kanan left Jack's body. Ba'al tortured, killed, and then revived Jack repeatedly for information about the Tok'ra and what his reason for being there was. While Jack went through this ordeal, Daniel visited him, taking on a form similar to his physical appearance while he was still corporeal. Daniel gave Jack hope and encouragement and was able to help Jack make an escape [6.06 "Abyss"].
Samantha Carter became the host of another Goa'uld symbiote in the episode, 6.05 "Nightwalkers", but was able to take a drug which killed the symbiote before it blended with her.
Teal'c went through several personal issues during this season. His wife, Drey'auc, died in the episode, 6.01 "Redemption Part 1", and he had to help his son, Rya'c, work through his anger. On a mission to meet with other Rebel Jaffa, Master Bra'tac and he were the only survivers of an ambush and massacre of over 100 Jaffa in the episode, 6.19 "Changeling". Both Jaffa survived the assault, but they lost their symbiotes. Jacob Carter/Selmak were able to save them with the introduction of the drug tretonin. Teal'c also received a visitation from his ascended friend, Daniel, during this ordeal. Daniel provided him with an anchor to reality while he used every bit of his strength to survive and save Bra'tac.
Season Seven
Daniel continued to watch over his fellow teammates while he was an Ascended Being. He was also a protector of the planet Abydos, the planet to which he and Jack first went through the stargate. Because Daniel's late wife Sha're and her family and people were Daniel's adoptive family, he had a strong tie to them. He and Jack had helped free the Abydonians from the Goa'uld System Lord Ra. When the Goa'uld System Lord Anubis threatened Abydos, Daniel attempted to protect them, but the cost was very high. He was returned to human form and left without his memory, deposited on a planet which had a village come to be known as Vis Uban. When SG-1 went to this planet thinking that it might be the location of The Lost City of the Ancients, the existence of which Daniel had discovered from a tablet he found on Abydos when Anubis was attacking, they found Daniel living among the nomads. He had no memory of who he was and had taken the name Arrom, meaning naked one. Jack and Sam convinced him to come home with them to discover his identity and past and, after deep consideration, he decided to go with them back to Earth. Soon, he was given a position back on SG-1, making him a fifth member of the team for a short while.
Daniel joined Jonas on a mission to destroy the advanced weapon Anubis possessed on his mighty ship. They were sent to hack into Anubis' computer system, coded in one of the oldest dialects of the Ancients' language. Daniel was versed in this language and Jonas had a working knowledge of it. They were successful in getting into the computer and the weapon was destroyed, but in their attempt to get off of the ship, Jonas was captured. Daniel worked at getting him free and together they were able to escape to Kelowna where Anubis' ship was stationed over the capital city of Jonas' nation. They were aided by other System Lords, at Teal'c's bidding, to destroy Anubis' ship, but, unknown to them at the time, Anubis escaped. Jonas was asked to return to his homeworld as representative on their now-united world's council to educate them on the Goa'uld threat.
Jonas' departure from the SGC meant that SG-1 returned to the four-member team of Colonel Jack O'Neill, Dr. Daniel Jackson, Major Samantha Carter, and Teal'c.
Season Eight
Colonel O'Neill was given a promotion to Brigadier General and given command of the SGC. Major Carter also received a promotion, giving her the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. With these promotions, Carter moved into the commanding officer position of SG-1, even though there are no other Air Force personnel on the team. It was deemed by General O'Neill that SG-1 would remain a 3-member team, but if he ever decided to go out in the field, he'd command SG-1.
