Synopsis by Hal Erickson
On the planet Simarka, the SG-1 team mets the Mongol-like Shavadai warriors, who have relegated their women to a state of near-slavery. This rouses the feminist ire of team member Samantha Carter (Amanda Tapping), who nonetheless saves the life of the Shavadai chief's son Abu (Jorge Vargas). Later kidnapped and bartered off as "property", Samantha tries to foment a women's rebellion against the Shavadai--and also attempts to smooth the path of romance between Abu and Nya (Crystal Lo), daughter of an enemy warlord.
