* FlockOfWolves: An interesting inversion where SG-1 stumbles across a group of Apophis devotees training to infiltrate Earth, and have to pretend to be what these trainees actually are, which are soldiers loyal to Apophis. So on one side, you have soldiers of Apophis masquerading as American military, and on the other, you have American military masquerading as soldiers of Apophis masquerading as American military.

SG-1 encounters what they believe to be another SG team under attack on another planet, only to realize that they have stumbled upon a training exercise carried out by would-be soldiers of Apophis preparing to invade earth.

-->'''Teal'c:''' This is Colonel O'Neill. He is well-loved by Apophis.

* DrillSergeantNasty: Kyle acts like this toward the rest of the recruits, including SG-1 at first. Given that he looks all of about twenty, O'Neill has a hard time taking him seriously.
* FirstBlood: When Kyle is accidentally shot with a real staff weapon, Captain Nelson declares that first blood has been spilled as sign that the "final task" is upon them, and the recruits consequently embark on a battle to the death.
* TheInfiltration: The team learns that Apophis had planned to invade earth this way, by training human soldiers to use earth weapons and study the culture until they could "pass" as being from earth.
