On Argos, people are born, fall in love, grow old and die in about a hundred days. A tiny virus speeds everything up. And when a member of SG-1 catches it, the countdown begins.
Overview
The Argosians live happy, carefree lives, without knowing they're an experiment. The Goa'uld Pelops sped up their biological clock to study entire generations in a matter of months.
History
When Jack O'Neill is infected and starts aging before everyone's eyes, SG-1 has to find the cure before it's too late. Argos raises a dizzying question: what is a life worth when it's cut down to a hundred days?
