Filed by: Dr. Daniel Jackson, from a Goa'uld prison cell
You'd think after being kidnapped 47 times (yes, I'm counting), I'd develop some kind of resistance to it. A Spidey-sense for impending abduction. But no.
This time, they also grabbed the kid. Grogu, the Mandalorian calls him.
The Goa'uld—some minor System Lord named Ba'lek who was clearly overcompensating for not being Ra—thinks Grogu is a Harcesis child. You know, one of those forbidden Goa'uld offspring who inherits all their parents' genetic knowledge?
I tried explaining that he's actually a completely different species from an entirely different reality, but Ba'lek's eyes glowed and he did the booming voice thing: "SILENCE! The child will reveal the secrets of the Ancients!"
Grogu ate a frog.
Not metaphorically. There was literally a frog in the cell and he caught it with his tongue and ate it.
Ba'lek seemed disturbed by this.
"So," I said to Grogu, "first time being kidnapped?"
He cooed at me.
"Yeah, me neither. You get used to it."
