Here Ra is seen from the side - village scene at the beginning is longer - longer entrance of Ra at the assembly. ONeill and his men are pushed down by the guards - extended entry to the control room. Daniel gets an explanation of how things work. You see that the conference room is directly above the control room - extended activation of the Stargate. You see more of the two technicians operating the Stargate.
