Synopsis:
SG-1 arrive on a beautiful planet, called Argos which is inhabited by beautiful people. As soon as they arrive, Jackson helps a local women to give birth to a child who the team discover later grows at an alarming rate. In fact the population has a lifespan of only 100 days. The population spend their 100 days celebrating under the sun and inexplicably falling into a deep sleep as soon as the sun sets. O'Neill is seduced by one of the local women and is soon afflicted with the same symptoms. He begins to age rapidly and the team begin a race against time to find a cure before the Colonel dies of old age.

Carter returns to earth and learns that the population including O'Neill have minute robots in their blood stream called nanocytes. On further investigation the team uncover a sinister experiment to observe the ageing process by artificially accelerating the lifespan of the Argosians by their by the local god and resident Gou'ald, Phelops. The team must find the answers before time literally runs out for O'Neill?
