STARGATE SG1
Episode 115
"COR-AI"
By
Tom J. Astle
The team arrive on the planet, Cartago. They enter a small village,
which appears empty
SAM
Looks deserted.
TEAL'C
O'Neill. I have been here before.
DANIEL
What? You have?
TEAL'C
Yes. This world is called Cartago.
DANIEL
What can you tell us about it?
TEAL'C
The Goa'uld visit here regularly. It
is one of their favorite places to harvest
hosts for Goa'uld absorption.
DANIEL
You know, I wish you wouldn't say harvest.
We're talking about human beings, not
brussel sprouts.
TEAL'C
That is how the Goa'uld perceive it.
DANIEL
So the locals aren't used to friendly
visitors.
JACK
Well, that would answer why no welcome
mat, I suppose, huh?
SAM
Colonel, this is weird, I mean all the
food here is fresh. There's even something
cooking on that fire.
DANIEL
But there's no one around.
JACK
Well, keep your heads up.
They enter a hall
JACK
It hasn't been deserted long.
The villages inhabitants appear and point rudimentary weapons
at them
HANNO
Hak-ka!
SAM
Colonel?
JACK
Hold your fire.
DANIEL
They probably think we're Goa'ulds.
JACK
Daniel? Think you could find a language
that would communicate to these people
that we're human like they are, and
that we're friendly?
HANNO
Why should I believe you? That is a
weapon.
JACK
So is that.Tell you what. I'll go first.
They both lower their weapons. Hanno looks at the team, one by
one. He moves over to Teal'c
HANNO
Jaffa!
DANIEL
Hold it!
The villagers point their weapons at Teal'c. SG1 raise their
weapons in response to the threat
JACK
Jaffa yes, but he's good guy.
SAM
You don't know him. He's peaceful. Tell
him you're peaceful, Teal'c.
TEAL'C
It is true.
HANNO
He lies! I know him.
JACK
How?
HANNO
This Jaffa killed my father.
Titles
JACK
Teal, you ever seen this kid before?
TEAL'C
I have not.
MAN
Hanno! The mandates.
HANNO
He is not Byrsa. The mandates do not
apply.
MAN
And what if you are mistaken? I do not
recognize this Jaffa.
HANNO
He is the one. He killed my father!
MAN
If you are right, he will be put through
Cor-ai. But we do not take revenge like
this, or we are no better than the Jaffa.
HANNO
Cor-ai will sustain my belief.
DANIEL
Cor-ai.
HANNO
But first you meet the elders. Come!
JACK
I always wanted to meet the elders.
The rest of the villagers appear outside
DANIEL
That's interesting. I wonder if everyone's
coming from some religious event.
JACK
What does it always have to be a religious
thing with you? Maybe they're coming
from a swap meet.
HANNO
When the gods come through the Circ
Kakona, we scatter in many directions
to hide from those who would hurt us.
They are overdue to visit us again.
DANIEL
Circ - that's a Latin derivation. Circova
Kakona - that's Greek. That's weird.
Two root languages in one culture.
SAM
What does it mean?
DANIEL
Circ Kakona,circle of woes. Their name
for the Stargate?
SAM
I don't like this.
FEMALE
You may approach.
Jack approaches her
FEMALE
You are the leader, yes?
JACK
Yes.
FEMALE
You may go.
JACK
Just like that?
DANIEL
Wait, we'd like to say a little while
and learn from you. Possibly you can
learn from us, I mean, you seem to need
help avoiding the Goa'ulds.
FEMALE
You may go. Now.
JACK
Daniel? It's important that we respect
our elders. Teal'c, dial it up.
FEMALE
Not him.
JACK
Excuse me?
HANNO
For him there will be Cor-ai.
JACK
All right, let me bottom line it for
you, okay? You can't have that man.
HANNO
He's not a man. He's Jaffa.
JACK
He's already told you he doesn't know
who you are.
HANNO
You say you don't remember me.
TEAL'C
I do not.
HANNO
Then do you remember this.
Flashback to a Goa'uld invasion of the village. A man with one
leg is standing amongst the villagers. Apophis orders the man
to be killed
APOPHIS
Do it!
YOUNG HANNO
Father! Father! No!
Teal'c shoots the man with his staff weapon
YOUNG HANNO
Father. No.
Back to the present
HANNO
You remember me now, do you not?
JACK
Don't say anything, Teal'c.
TEAL'C
But I must.
JACK
That's an order. Don't say anything.
HANNO
He does not need to say anything. Take
him in custody.
JACK
Hold it!
He raises his gun. Daniel pushes it back down
DANIEL
Jack, that is not the way to handle
this.
Teal'c is placed in a cell
JACK
I don't suppose we could get him out
on bail.
HANNO
He is guilty. He must pay for what he
has done.
JACK
And you've already decided this.
HANNO
Yes.
JACK
Hey. At least untie his hands. Come
on.
HANNO
Tomorrow we will have the Cor-ai. You
are welcome to stay.
JACK
Gee thanks.
The villagers leave
JACK
All right, when they come back, Daniel,
you draw them in. Carter and I will
take right and left flanks.
DANIEL
Wait a minute. Are you talking break
out?
JACK
Uh, yeah. We're gonna grab Teal'c and
head straight for the Stargate. It'd
be nice if we could do it without bloodshed.
TEAL'C
No.
JACK
Excuse me?
TEAL'C
Do not attempt your plan. I will not
go.
JACK
You know that's a really odd sound.
I thought you just said you wouldn't
go?
TEAL'C
That is correct.
JACK
Why?
TEAL'C
Because to go would disrespect the Byrsa.
JACK
Disrespect?
DANIEL
Teal'c is right. We should show some
respect.
JACK
Did anyone else hear that kid say that
Teal'c was guilty already? For all we
know, they wanna kill him.
DANIEL
Wait wait wait, who said anything about
killing? I mean all they said was they
want to put him through Cor-ai. Now
near as I can figure, that is like a
simple trial.
JACK
Now see, it's that near as I can figure
part that's got me a little worried.
What if their idea of a simple trial
is a simple beheading?
TEAL'C
I will not run.
Later, three women kneel outside the cage
JACK
Excuse me, what are you doing?
WOMAN
I am the Jaffa's voice for the Cor-ai.
JACK
Well I think his voice is just fine.
DANIEL
I think she means kind of like his defense
attorney.
WOMAN
I have been chosen. I must witness his
pecca vay.
SAM
What's a pecca vay?
DANIEL
There's a Latin word that's similar.
It basically means, I have sinned.
SAM
She wants his confession?
JACK
Has it occurred to anyone that he might
not be guilty?
WOMAN
If he were not guilty, there would be
no Cor-ai.
JACK
Innocent until proven guilty. Heard
of it?
DANIEL
Actually, throughout history the idea's
pretty rare. Most cultures usually assume
things the other way around. I'm just
saying.
WOMAN
I must hear the Jaffa's pecca-vay.
JACK
Well, you're outta luck, 'cause you're
not gonna get him to pecca anything.
WOMAN
Then who will be his voice?
JACK
That would be me.
SAM
You?
WOMAN
You will be his voice for the Cor-ai?
JACK
Yep.
WOMAN
As you wish. I will tell the elders.
The women leave
DANIEL
You sure you're up to this?
JACK
Why? You don't think I am?
DANIEL
Well, it's just that I've never actually
heard you referred to as a diplomat.
I think, antagonist was the word used.
JACK
But I'm his commanding officer. It comes
with the territory.
SAM
Wouldn't Daniel be better at it, I mean,
being a linguist and a cultural expert?
Sir.
JACK
All right, we'll all do it. How's that?
DANIEL
That's fine.
SAM
Co-counsels. Works for me.
Teal'c is taken to the meeting hall, where the trial is to be
held. Hanno kneels before him
HANNO
I am sorry.
TEAL'C
You are sorry.
HANNO
When I first saw you, I let my anger
control me, and I threatened your life.
This is counter to Byrsa mandates, and
by doing it I shamed myself and my whole
clan. I ask your forgiveness.
TEAL'C
You have it.
JACK
This is startin' off better than I thought
it would.
The trial begins
HANNO
Jaffa, you killed my father. For this
crime the punishment is death. I will
now lead the Cor-ai.
JACK
Objection! That's something we say back
on earth when, never mind. You can't
be the judge; that's not fair.
HANNO
Judge?
JACK
Yeah, the guy who controls the proceedings,
decides what happens here.
HANNO
Why is it not fair?
JACK
Because you're the son of the victim.
HANNO
Yes.
JACK
Well, the judge has to be impartial.
HANNO
What does that mean?
DANIEL
Iimpartiality would require someone
who hasn't already formed an opinion
about Teal'c's guilt or innocence.
HANNO
How could there be such a person? Anyone
who has a mind has an opinion.
JACK
Your honours, I respectfully request
that someone else be in control of this...what
is it?
DANIEL
Cor-ai.
JACK
Cor-ai.
FEMALE
Only the person who has suffered understands
the pain which has been inflicted. Who
else can fairly say what the punishment
must be?
JACK
Well, you could for one.
FEMALE
Hanno will continue.
JACK
Unbelievable.
DANIEL
It's actually rather Talmudic, only
he who is wronged can forgive.
JACK
Will you can it?
HANNO
You remember me?
TEAL'C
I do.
HANNO
Then you are the one who killed my father,
are you not?
JACK
Don't answer that Teal'c.
TEAL'C
Yes. I am the one who killed your father.
The room is empty, and Jack tries to get through to Teal'c
JACK
Teal'c are you trying to commit suicide?
TEAL'C
I do not understand.
JACK
Why didn't you tell me you were guilty.
At least before you told a room full
of people that wanna see you dead.
TEAL'C
You already knew, only you did not want
to hear it. That is why you asked me
not to speak.
JACK
What happened?
TEAL'C
Apophis ordered me to kill Hanno's father.
Jack looks at the two men guarding the door
JACK
Hey, can you guys guard from outside?
We're not goin' anywhere.
JACK
So, you were following orders.
TEAL'C
Hanno's father died by my hand. No one
else's. I am responsible. What I did
while serving Apophis, I will not hide
from.
JACK
Even if the punishment is death?
TEAL'C
Then that is what I deserve.
JACK
Teal'c, you sound like you wanna die.
TEAL'C
Colonel O'Neill, have you ever faced
the crying eyes of a child whose father
you have just murdered?
JACK
Not exactly. Teal'c, there are a lot
things we do that we wish we could change
and we sure as hell can't forget, but
the whole concept of chain of command
undermines the idea of free will. So
as soldiers, we have to do some pretty
awful stuff. But we're following orders
like we were trained to. It doesn't
make it easier; it certainly doesn't
make it right, but it does put some
of the responsibility on the guy giving
those orders.
TEAL'C
Then you are saying Apophis is responsible
for Hanno's father's death.
JACK
Yes.
TEAL'C
You are wrong, O'Neill. While in the
service of Apophis I did many things.
For these deeds, my victims deserve
retribution.
JACK
Can we focus on this one case only for
now please?
TEAL'C
This case represents the many.
JACK
Well it shouldn't! Why? Why are you
doin' this?
TEAL'C
When I look into Hanno's eyes, I see
the horror on the faces of many others,
as their loved ones prepare for Goa'uld
absorption. Worse yet is the face of
the victims whom I selected as they
realize they are about to take their
final human breath. Hanno's father is
not the first nor the last of those
whose lives I've taken. And I have done
far worse, O'Neill. I cannot give all
of their loved ones retribution, but
I can at least give it to this one.
I am sorry, O'Neill. I will not run.
Teal'c is very upset
JACK
Well, I'm sorry, Teal'c, but that's
unacceptable. I'm gonna to do what I
have to do to keep you alive whether
you like it or not.
Bell tolls as people return to the hall.
JACK
What's the plan of attack?
DANIEL
Well, the way I look at it, Teal'c has
already pled guilty. So to draw a parallel
to an American trial, we have to look
at this as sort of like the sentencing
phase. We need to prove to these people
that he doesn't deserve to die.
SAM
How do we do that?
DANIEL
We need to convince them that he's a
different man now than he was then.
JACK
Good luck.
The trial continues. Daniel is questioned by Jack
JACK
Tell us what happened to your wife.
DANIEL
Her name is Sha'uri. She was captured
by Apophis' serpent guards, and changed.
JACK
She's now a Goa'uld?
DANIEL
Inhabited by one, yes.
JACK
And how did she get to be one of the
victims?
DANIEL
The leader of the serpent guards picked
her out of a crowd of other women, at
random, really.
JACK
Who was this serpent guard?
DANIEL
Teal'c. The old Teal'c. At that time,
he hadn't joined us yet. He didn't know
me or that Sha'uri was my wife.
JACK
But the fact is you now work side by
side with the man responsible for your
wife's fate.
DANIEL
It was difficult for me at first, I
wanted to hate him. But now I know that
it was a different Teal'c that chose
Sha'uri and I know that if there were
any way for him to help me get my wife
back, this Teal'c would do it gladly.
Even if it meant giving up his own life.
This Teal'c is my friend.
TEAL'C
There were fifty human captives. All
were unarmed. Apophis ordered me to
slaughter them all.
SAM
But you didn't, did you?
TEAL'C
I did not.
SAM
What did you do?
TEAL'C
I turned my weapon on my fellow serpent
guards.
SAM
It was a huge risk for you, wasn't it,
Teal'c?
TEAL'C
I made a decision.
SAM
I think you're being a little modest
here. You have a family. Do you think
you'll ever see them again?
TEAL'C
It is unlikely.
Daniel looks around outside
BYRSA WOMAN
Have you lost your way?
DANIEL
Oh, no, I'm just looking around, if
that's okay.
BYRSA WOMAN
You are welcome to do so.
DANIEL
You have a very lovely existence.
BYRSA WOMAN
Thank you. It would be made lovelier
were it not for the Goa'ulds, and the
Jaffa.
DANIEL
The one thing I can't seem to figure
out is, is, where you live.
BYRSA WOMAN
We live here.
DANIEL
Oh, no where do you, where do you sleep
at night? Where do you take shelter?
Where do you sleep?
BYRSA WOMAN
We sleep in the hiding.
DANIEL
The hiding.
BYRSA WOMAN
We have hidden caves and tunnels in
all directions. When the evil ones come
in through the Circ-Kakona, we flee
in all directions and we disappear.
DANIEL
So they catch only the slowest among
you.
BYRSA WOMAN
Oh, no, we would never leave anyone
behind. We all go, or none of us do.
Daniel runs to Teal'cs cell
DANIEL
I think I might have something that
might help us out. Teal'c, tell us exactly
what happened that day.
TEAL'C
Apophis ordered me to kill one of the
villagers so the rest would obey.
DANIEL
Okay, well I think we've all heard the
reader's digest version of the story,
but there's more to it, isn't there.
Like why you chose Hanno's father.
TEAL'C
We brought those we had captured bac
k to the hall. Apophis ordered the selection
process to begin.
Flashback to the Goa'uld attack on the village
APOPHIS
Teal'c. Kill one of them.
TEAL'C
My lord?
APOPHIS
I said kill one of them. If you hesitate
I will kill them all.
Hanno's father holds his hands out to Teal'c, asking him to choose
him
APOPHIS
Do it.
HANNO
Father! No! Father!
Teal'c shoots him
HANNO
No! No! Father! No.
Teal'cs cell
TEAL'C
Apophis chose seven women, and let the
rest go.
DANIEL
The truth is our defense.
SAM
I think I see where you're going with
this, Daniel. This is good. This could
make the difference in the Cor-ai.
JACK
It's a kangaroo court. Nothing's gonna
make a difference. Isn't that painfully
obvious to anybody? That kid made up
his mind before we even got here.
DANIEL
So what do you suggest?
JACK
Carter and I are going back to Earth
for reinforcements.
DANIEL
What, you're going to shoot his way
out?
JACK
No, Daniel. I'm hoping we can bring
back enough fire power so it'll scare
'em into turning Teal'c over. That's
how I'd like to see it go down.
TEAL'C
I have already told you, O'Neill. I
will not run.
JACK
Teal'c, you're going back with us if
I have to knock you out and carry you
myself. Got it? Buy as much time as
you can, Daniel.
Jack and Sam arrive back in the SGC gateroom
HAMMOND
Where are Teal'c and Daniel?
JACK
We'll explain, sir. First, I need you
to mobilize a combat unit ready to go
back to that planet ASAP.
HAMMOND
Do it. Now how about filling me in?
Daniel continues the trial, and questions Teal'c
DANIEL
So, by killing that man, you actually
saved the lives of the rest of the villagers.
You even saved Hanno's life.
TEAL'C
It is true.
DANIEL
But can you really be sure Apophis would
have really killed the rest of the villagers?
TEAL'C
I have seen him do it many times.
DANIEL
So although you were faced with a terrible
decision, you chose the lesser of two
evils.
HANNO
He chose to kill a crippled man. The
man least able to run away, the most
helpless of us all. His choice was not
moral. It was cowardly and evil.
DANIEL
Hanno, I'm told the Byrsa's only defense
against the Goa'ulds is their ability
to run and hide. Is that right?
HANNO
We have escape tunnels and caves. When
the lights on the Circ-Kakona appear,
we can disappear before the Goa'uld
arrive.
DANIEL
But, you have to move fast, right?
HANNO
Of course.
DANIEL
Teal'c, did you know that back then.
TEAL'C
I did. It was often very difficult to
locate the villagers. They seemed to
be able to vanish into the forest, as
quickly as a flock of birds.
DANIEL
How fast could your father move, with
only one leg?
HANNO
It was not important. As a member of
the clan, he would never be left behind.
DANIEL
So in other words, your group can only
move as fast as its slowest member?
Right? Teal'c, why did you choose Hanno's
father?
TEAL'C
I saw his injury. I knew that without
him the group could move more quickly.
Perhaps even evade us the next time
we came.
HANNO
No, I will not hear this.
DANIEL
So you made a decision. You chose to
kill one that day to save many later.
Is that right?
TEAL'C
It is correct.
DANIEL
So if Teal'c hadn't made that decision,
many of you might not be alive today
to want him dead.
HANNO
I do not understand the relevance of
any of this.
DANIEL
I am trying to prove to you that Teal'c
is a good man. He is very important
to all of us in fighting the Goa'ulds
and the Jaffa. Therefore I ask that
you spare his life.
HANNO
You have defended this Jaffa repeatedly
by saying he is a changed man. And for
proof you have given many examples of
his firing upon his former comrades.
DANIEL
Yes.
HANNO
Than why did he not fire upon them here
instead of killing my father.
DANIEL
Because it wouldn't have done any good.
HANNO
My father might be alive today.
DANIEL
No, not necessarily. Even if Teal'c
had succeeded that day, the Goa'uld
would have sent more Jaffa to exterminate
everyone, your entire population.
HANNO
How do you know that? They did not do
that to your people.
DANIEL
They tried. We have defenses that you
don't. Teal'c may have killed Hanno's
father, but in doing so he saved you,
and you, and all of you. Teal'c's death
will not change the past, but his continued
life can help all of our future. Can
you really justify killing him now?
FEMALE
His fate is not to be decided by us.
Cor-ai mandates that only Hanno can
make that decision.
HANNO
Your argument is wise, and moving. I
commend you.
DANIEL
Thank you.
HANNO
You have made a compelling argument
that this Jaffa's more recent and continuing
good should somehow negate his past
evil. I have but one final question.
Can his recent actions, or any future
actions, return my father from the dead?
DANIEL
No, no, of course not.
HANNO
Then clearly no amount of good in the
present can erase what he has done in
the past. Jaffa, you are guilty of killing
my father. Tomorrow, at midday, you
will die by your own weapon. As my father
did.
Hanno leaves the room
Briefing Room
HAMMOND
I'm confused, Captain. Are these people
hostiles?
SAM
Well sir, that would depend on your
definition of hostiles.
JACK
They have Teal'c prisoner. They plan
to execute him. I'd call that hostile.
HAMMOND
But it sounds to me as if they've treated
the rest of you with the utmost respect.
Now you want to launch an assault on
them?
JACK
No, sir. I'm hoping once they see our
superior numbers and firepower, they'll
release him without incident.
HAMMOND
Colonel, the United States is not in
the business of interfering in other
people's affairs.
JACK
Since when, sir?
HAMMOND
Since this administration was elected.
JACK
Well, I don't think the president would
have a problem with us going in and
trying to rescue one of our own.
HAMMOND
Teal'c is not one of our own.
SAM
He's not?
HAMMOND
I mean in the eyes of the government.
He's not an American citizen. Hell,
he's not even an Earth citizen.
JACK
I don't believe I'm hearing this from
you, sir.
SAM
General Hammond, sir, if I may. Even
setting aside that Teal'c is our friend,
how can you let such a valuable information
resource be taken away?
HAMMOND
These people's laws in this regard are
no different from our own. We don't
stop pursuing war criminals because
they have a change of heart.
JACK
War criminals.
HAMMOND
Yes, Colonel, he is. Like it or not,
what the Jaffa have done to these people
and thousands of other people is a crime.
Now Teal'c spent many years serving
the Goa'uld doing some damned distasteful
things. Surely both of you must realize
that this was bound to happen sooner
or later.
JACK
General Hammond, I have spent a lot
of years in the service of my country,
and I have been ordered to do some damned
distasteful things. I will not allow
them to execute my friend.
SAM
Sir, Teal'c has proven his loyalty to
us countless times. Don't you think
we should do the same?
HAMMOND
My own personal opinion says yes. But
the government policies under which
I must weigh my decisions, say no.
JACK
Well fine, let's call the president!
HAMMOND
That's enough, Colonel!
SAM
General, sir, we don't have a lot of
time here.
HAMMOND
Right.
Some women are painting various designs on Teal's upper body.
Daniel is watching
DANIEL
What are they doing?
TEAL'C
Preparing me for my death.
DANIEL
Oh.
TEAL'C
I would like to ask one final favor.
DANIEL
What is it?
TEAL'C
I would like to volunteer my lifeless
body, and that of my symbiote, for your
scientists to study. Perhaps you can
better learn ways to battle the Goa'uld
and the Jaffa.
DANIEL
Well, don't worry, Teal'c, there's not
going to be any body to donate. Jack
and Carter should be back any minute
with the troops.
TEAL'C
Daniel Jackson. You must not allow Colonel
O'Neill to deny the retribution the
Byrsa deserve.
DANIEL
You know I have to admit, Teal'c, for
once I agree with Jack. I mean, I respect
your wishes, but I don't believe that
you deserve to die.
Briefing Room
HAMMOND
I'm sorry, Colonel, the president won't
authorize a rescue.
JACK
I don't believe it.
SAM
What?
HAMMOND
I agree with the president's decision.
We can't commit troops to risk their
lives in an action that I believe is
morally ambiguous.
JACK
That's where I respectfully disagree,
sir.
HAMMOND
You have the right to disagree, Colonel,
but you do not have the right to take
actions against orders, is that understood?
Jack and Sam arrive back on the planet. The village appears to
have been ransacked and the people gone
JACK
Things look a little different to you?
They see some Serpent Guards
VILLAGER
They burned our village!
They run to Teal'cs cell, but it is empty
SAM
Byrsa must have taken him with them.
JACK
Let's hope it was the Byrsa.
SAM
Maybe Daniel broke him out.
JACK
Keep those positive thoughts coming
Captain. Let's go.
The Jaffa are lining up the villagers. One of them shoots at
Sam and chases her. Jack kills him with a knife. Sam hands him
a staff weapon
The villagers are hiding
HANNO
Now O'Neill has proved to me not only
where his loyalties lie but yours as
well.
TEAL'C
If you believe that it was O'Neill that
informed the Goa'uld, you are mistaken.
HANNO
Then how is it that they know our escape
routes?
DANIEL
What?
HANNO
We are trapped. Cut off from the hidings.
DANIEL
But Jack went back to Earth. The Goa'uld
are not stupid. They probably figured
it out on their own.
HANNO
The children and the slowest will hide
here. The rest of us will try to draw
them away into the forest.
DANIEL
Wait. Now let Teal'c go. We can help
you but he is no good to you like this.
Now I give you my word he will not try
to run away.
HANNO
No he will not. You will stay here.
If I do not survive, I entrust you to
tell whoever does that I still wish
my sentence to be carried out.
Jaffa enter the hall
DANIEL
Try not the let them see your face in
case
Shak'l shows his face
SHAK'L
Teal'c.
DANIEL
Shak'l.
A child secretly passes Teal'c a knife. Teal'c cuts the rope
binding his hands and turns to Daniel
TEAL'C
Go.
SHAK'L
Your death will assure my place as first
prime.
Teal'c stabs Shak'l
TEAL'C
I am sorry.
Teal'c shoots another Jaffa in the back, with Shak'ls staff weapon
A fight ensues, with Teal'c attacking the Jaffa and the remaining
team members joining in
JACK
Hey!
Teal'cs leg is injured
DANIEL
Oh, looks bad. Let's get him home.
TEAL'C
No.
Teal'c walks over to Hanno
TEAL'C
It is mid-day. I am prepared to accept
my punishment.
JACK
Teal'c.
HANNO
You would save those who wish to kill
you?
TEAL'C
I would save those who deserve to live.
HANNO
I have made a mistake. My memory was
faulty. You are not the same man as
he who murdered my father.
TEAL'C
I am the one.
HANNO
No. That Jaffa is dead. You have killed
him. We have our own wounded to care
for. I suggest you take your friend
home.
JACK
We can help you defend yourselves.
HANNO
We would appreciate that.
The villagers leave and the team all gather around Teal'c
