"ENEMIES"
By
Robert C. Cooper
SAM
This is the sun in Vorash's orbit.
JACOB
We wanna blow it up.
The gate is show going toward the sun.
JACK
What the hell is that?
JACOB
We're under attack! (Firefight is shown)
Hyperdrive's down. We're sitting ducks!
TEAL'C
We must not allow Tannith to escape.
Teal'C and Tannith's vessel is show in a firefight.
JACK
Teal'C ... PULL UP! (Vessel is shown
blowing up. Danny is shown at console)
(Thru radio) Mayday! mayday! We are
SO going in!
DANNY
Jack? Can you hear me?
Vessels are shown flying. Teal'C is shown getting shot in the
back. Jack jumps out of the way, nearly getting hit.
JACOB
We have less that 4 minutes until the
sun begins to supernova.
JACK
(Yelling Into radio) Daniel, just get
me the hell out of here, will ya?!!!
JACOB
Engaging hyperdrive.
CARTER
Sir! Where's Teal'C?
JACK
I think he's dead.
JACOB
We've traveled over 4 million light
years.
SAM
That's impossible.
JACOB
It's gonna take 125 years to get back.
(A ship appears) It's Apophis! (Apophis's
ship towers over SG1's)
JACOB
He's arming weapons.
JACK
Shields?
JACOB
Not responding. Not that they'd do much
good anyway. That ship has weapons powerful
enough to penatrate our shields at full
power.
SAM
Hyperdrive?
JACOB
It's not responding. The blast wave
that propelled us here did some damage.
DANNY
Can we communicate with them?
JACOB
And say what?
DANNY
I don't know ... don't shoot?? (Jack
gives him a look)
SELMACK
KREE! LORD APOPHIS! I AM SELMACK OF
THE TOK'RA, COMMANDER OF THIS SHIP.
JACK
Commander?
JACOB
You wanna bicker about rank now?
APOPHIS
(Thru projection) ANACK KEL APOPHIS!
JACK
He's looking a little pissed.
SAM
We DID just destroy his fleet.
Apophis speaks in Goa'uld. Jacob's translating.
JACOB
He says it's time for us to die.
DANNY
(Rather sarcastically) Uh ... wait a
second. I don't know if you've checked
your dashboard here, but we're both
way off course.
JACOB
(Apophis talks) He says he knows everything.
(Apophis talks) He's also saying there's
nothing we could do to help him. He's
going to destroy us.
DANNY
We surrender.
JACK
What?! Danny?!
DANNY
We say that or he blows us to pieces,
I thought I'd buy us some time here.
Apophis speaks again.
SAM
What'd he say?
DANNY
Too late.
OPENING CREDITS!
JACK
I can't stand it! What's he waiting
for?
Shots are fired from Apophis's ship apparently in back of the
smaller vessel. A blast is shot from behind SG1's ship, but hits
the shield of Apophis's ship.
SAM
What happened?
JACOB
I'm picking up another ship on sensors.
It's comming in fast ... and it's firering
on Apophis.
SAM
What are you doing?
JACOB
Getting the hell out of here. ( a very
advanced looking ship comes into view,
still firering at Apophis.)That ship
is unlike anything I've ever seen.
SAM
Well, we are in a completely uncharted
part of the universe.
JACK
I'm enjoying their style ... shoot first,
send flowers later. (Grins) It works!
DANNY
And only at Apophis, not us.
SAM
Well, his ship's a much bigger craft.
JACOB
You think they were trying to save us?
DANNY
It's possible.
JACOB
We may still find out; we're not gonna
get far on sublight engines ... whoever
wins the fight is gonna come looking
for us.
SAM
Now, what are you doing?
JACOB
This system is centered around a blue
giant star. If we can move close enough
to the choronisphere, the radiation
should keep us well hidden.
JACK
Excuse me? Radiation?
JACOB
Well, the ship's hull will protect us
... for a while. (Danny looks worried
and Jack fakes a smile) We're entering
the choronisphere. The good news is
that we won't show up in anyone else's
sensors. The bad news is that our sensors
will be blocked as well.
SAM
So when we're ready to go, we won't
know if anyone's out there waiting for
us. (Jacob grins and nods)
DANNY
How long do we have?
JACOB
About an hour without full shields.
Ten hours with em. Sam ... wanna give
me a hand? (She nods)
JACK
(As the Carters are passing by him)
I'd fix the shields first.
JACOB
Right, Jack.
JACK
(To self) Just a suggestion.
JACOB
(To Sam in the engine room) Are you
OK?
SAM
Just thinking about Teal'C. Five minutes.
JACOB
Then nine hours. The shields are back
online. (Looks at chrystals) Oh, boy!
SAM
How bad is it?
JACOB
It's bad! The hyperdrive control chrystals
are all completely shot.
SAM
We allready used the back ups.
DANNY
(He's sitting on the floor, Jack's laying
on his back on a console of some sort
in back of him) I don't suppose you
wanna talk about what happened on Vorash.
JACK
Not really.
DANNY
Didn't think so.
JACK
We were ambushed. At the rings. Teal'C
took one in the back. (Somberly) I should
have seen it coming.
DANNY
I thought the key to a good ambush is
that you DON'T see it coming. (After
a moment of silence) Look, the point
is, I'm SURE you did your best.
JACK
(Meloncoly after another moment) Apparently
it wasn't good enough.
Back at base. The gate is dialing.
SERGENT WALTER DAVIS
recieving tokra IDC, Sir.
GH
Open the iris. (Iris is opened, Tok'Ra
walks thru. Walking in room, to troops)
Stand down! Welcome to Earth. I'm General
Hammond.
TOK'RA
<> I'M
COUNCILWOMAN LYNAL OF THE TOK'RA.
GH
Would you please come this way? I assume
you have news.
COUNCILWOMAN
YES. WE HAD TWO SCOUT SHIPS AS CLOSE
TO THE REGION AS SAFETY PERMITTED. OUR
SENSORS DID CONFIRM THAT THE STAR DID
GO SUPERNOVA AS PLANNED. AS FAR AS WE
COULD TELL, APOPHIS'S FLEET WAS IN CLOSE
PROXIMITY AS IT HAPPENED.
GH
As far as you can tell?
COUNCILWOMAN
OUR SENSORS ONLY CAUGHT THE TIME PRIOR
TO THE BLASTWAVE. AN ENERGY BURST AT
THAT MAGNITUDE BLACKS OUT SENSORY AND
WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO FOR SOME TIME,
HOWEVER, I CAN ASSURE YOU. THERE'S NO
WAY FOR A MOTHER SHIP TO HAVE SURVIVED.
GH
And there's been no communication from
SG-1?
COUNCILWOMAN
NO. A SINGLE ONE MANNED POD WAS LAUNCHED
FROM APOPHIS'S MOTHERSHIP SEVERAL MINUTES
PRIOR TO THE EXPLOSION.
GH
Apophis?
COUNCILWOMAN
IT IS POSSIBLE. BUT THAT WOULD HAVE
MEANT HE ANTICIPATED THE EXPLOSION AND
HIS FLEET WOULD HAVE ESCAPED.
GH
Than who was it?
COUNCILWOMAN
WE TRACKED THE POD INTO GOA'ULD OCCUPIED
TERRITORY, BUT COULD NOT FOLLOW IT FURTHER.
THERE WAS ONE, POSSIBLY 2 SUBSPACE DISTORTIONS
DURING THE EXPLOSION THAT COULD BE EXPLAINED
BY SHIPS GOING INTO HYPERSPACE. HOWEVER,
WE'RE FAIRLY CONFIDENT THAT THEY DID
NOT MAKE IT OUT PRIOR TO BEING HIT BY
THE BLAST WAVE.
GH
So, you're saying that SG1 did not survive?
COUNCILWOMAN
(As she's speaking, GH is shown unbelieving
look on his face) THE POSSIBILITY IS
EXTREMELY REMOTE. IF THEY HAD, THEY
SHOULD HAVE CONTACTED US BY NOW. YOU
CAN REST ASSURED, WHETHER OR NOT SG1
SURVIVED, THEIR ACTIONS HAD THROW THE
GOA'ULD INTO CHAOS. THE RESULTING VOID
IN DOMINENT POWER WILL HAVE THE REMAINING
SYSTEM LORD FIGHTING FOR YEARS TO COME.
GH
Thank you.
COUNCILWOMAN
(turns to leave than stops) THE TOK'RA
ARE OFFICIALLY CONSITERING SEL'MACK
A FALLEN WAR HERO.
GH
You'll forgive me for holding out hope
a little longer? SG1 has a surprisingly
good habit of beating the odds.
Ship is shown orbiting a blue star.
JACOB
This is not gonna work!
JACK
(Over radio) Hey, uh ... it's getting
a little hot up here, kids.
SAM
We're running out of time!
JACOB
<< He and Sam are walking in the room
where Jack and Danny, looking mightly
yummy with their shirts rolled up showing
their muscles are rolling a ball to
each other >>The hyperdrive is history.
SAM
We tried retrofitting some of the other
chrystal, but it didn't work.
DANNY
I though you said it would take over
a hundread years to get home even if
we had the hyperdrive.
JACOB
Yeah.
DANNY
So in the longrun, what difference does
it make?
JACOB
(Who's in the front next to Danny) Well,
in the short term it would be hard to
avoid enemy ships.
JACK
(To Sam, who's in the back next to him)
Weapons and shields?
SAM
Good for now.
JACK
Good enough to cover our butts from
whatever's out there?
JACOB
We'll see. Moving out of the choronosphere.
Sensors are coming back online. (The
planet's orbits is shown on the sensors.)
Picking up one ship. It's Apophis.
JACK
What about the other one?
JACOB
(Unbelieving??) It's not out there!
DANNY
Can Apophis see us yet? (Looks confused)
JACOB
He should be able to, but he's not warning.
SAM
MAybe his ship was damaged in the battle.
(Sensors beep, Danny and Jacob look
at each other) That's impossible!
JACK
(An adorable confused look) Care to
share?
DANNY
It says that there's no lifesigns onboard.
SAM
(Walking toward Apophis's ship, to her
daddy.) What if the Alien ship comes
back while we're over there?
JACOB
Without hyperdrives, we're sitting ducks
no matter where we are. If Apophis's
ship is damaged, and we can revere it,
We should. It's faster, has more advanced
weapondry, and surperior shields.
JACK
We still gotta span em.
JACOB
We won't know what happened until we
get there. At the very least, we need
hyperdrive control. (They get in the
rings, and are transported to Apophis's
ship)
A distress call is heard. In Goa'Uld KREE HONOK HASNOK.
JACK
What's he saying?
JACOB
Self distruct is set. We have 4 minutes.
I'll try to shut it off from the peltak.
Sam? You know where the chrystals are?
SAM
I'll get them.
JACOB
All right. (He goes down one corridor
while Sam and JAck go down another.)
SAM
This way, Sir. It's not far.
JACK
Carter? How do you know where to go
in a place like this?
SAM
I studied certain respects of the ship
while we were on Vorash.
JACK
You know how to have a good time, don't
you?
SAM
I'm having a good time now, Sir.
JACK
You GO girl. (The two officers come
to a corridor filled with Jaffa face
down on the floor.)
SAM
Clear.
JACK
(Turning a Jaffa over. ) (Scratching
is heard, Sam turns quickly taking a
couple steps back) What is it?
SAM
I don't know. That sounds erily familiar.
(A noice comes from behind them, they
turn suddenly to see a replicator climbing
the wall.)
JACK
(Into radio) Jacob, do you read me?
JACOB
Yeah.
JACK
Uh ... we should get out of here.
JACOB
Yeah, I figured that. (Shot goes to
the bridge being eaten apart by the
technobugs)
DANNY
(Back at the ship) Guys, what's going
on?
SAM
The ship's crawling with replicators.
JACOB
Sam, I'm not gonna be able to shut off
the autodestruct. I'll meet you 2 back
at the ring room.
SAM
We're still gonna try to get the crystals.
JACOB
You have 3 minutes. Daniel, you're gonna
haveta fly that ship out of here as
soon as we ring back aboard ... (Danny's
freaking out right here.)
DANNY
... and you're gonna haveta tell me
how to do that!
JACOB
Running thru the corridor, arrives at
the EMPTY ring room) (Whispers) Sam,
Jack ... one minute! (Starts running.
Yelling, panicked) Sam! Jack! Do you
read!?!
SAM
(Comes running around the corner, Jack's
on her six shooting his gun) Activate
the rings!!!! (They're running , Jack's
shooting his gun, Sam and Jack slip
into the rings which consume them with
a light ...) (They go to the other ship,
Jack rolls over on his back as Sam's
being helped up by her daddy. ) We got
em.
JACOB
Go, Daniel!
SAM
(Running thru the halls, to her daddy)
There's not enough time to fix the hyperdrive
is there?
JACOB
We're gonna haveta hope the sublet engines
get us far enough away!
SAM
Of course That's only gonna matter if
the replicators can't shut off the auto
destruct.
JACOB
Unless they learn to reprogram a Goa'Uld
computer rather quickly.
SAM
It's possible. If they get control of
that ship ... (They arrive at the bridge.)
JACK
HEY!!! You guys are just being too negative!
JACOB
We're not gonna make it!
DANNY
We're gone as fast as we can! (The ship
is shown flying away from the exploding
vessel)
JACOB
All right! Shut down the engines! Avert
all power to the shields.
DANNY
Be my GUEST! (The shield is put on before
the sonic boom from the explosion is
shown.)
JACOB
(Short sigh) That was close.
JACK
I believe someone said ... we're not
gonna make it.
JACOB
Sam, let's get the hyperdrive running.
JACK
Excuse me. I distinctly remember someone
saying "We're not gonna make it!" I
think we made it.
JACOB
I'm sorry, I overreacted. At the time
it seemed we weren't gonna make it.
JACK
Yes! Well, next time, maybe we'll just
wait and see.
JACOB
And blow the last chance I'll ever have
to being right?
JACK
(As Jacob passes by him) What?
SAM
(Laughing) (Following Dad.) Welcome
to MY life!
JACK
(Turns to watch her go) WHAT?! (He turns
to Danny, who was grinning during the
conversation. Danny turns to face away
from Jack. )
JACOB
(Having done something with the chrystal)
We're good to go!
DANNY
(Over radio) Uh ... engine room, this
is Peltack, engine room, come in immediately!
JACOB
I think we've left him in charge once
too often.
SAM
(LAughs) What is it Daniel?
DANNY
I'm picking up a ... ship ... on the
sensors.
JACOB
(After sharing a look with Sam) Now
what? (The Carters run to the peltack.)
Looks like someone must have escaped
Apophis's ship before the bugs took
over.
SAM
Who?!
JACOB
It's a Goa'Uld cargo ship. I'm sending
a hailing signal. (Sensor console is
shown) Nothing.
SELMACK
I AM SELMACK OF THE TOK'RA. COMMANDER
OF THIS SHIP. (Jack scoffs and rolls
his head and eyes)
JACK
You know, we really should talk about
this commander thing.
SELMACK
(Shaking his head) IDENTIFY YOURSELF.
(Teal'C shows up on the screen)
JACK
TEAL'C!!!!
TEAL'C
O'Neill.
JACK
You made it!
TEAL'C
Apophis revived me in the sarcophagus.
We fled the ship when the replicators
attacked.
JACK
(To Jacob) "We"?
JACOB
I'm picking up other lifesigns on board
the ship.
JACK
Who ya got with ya, Teal'C?
TEAL'C
A few Jaffa who surported our cause.
They helped me escape.
JACOB
Opening the cargo bay doors.
JACK
Welcome back.
TEAL'C
Thank you , O'Neill. (The ship flies
in thru the cargo doors.)
JACK
(He , Sam, and Danny go to welcome their
team mate aboard) Hey! (Opens arms to
hug Teal'C.) Buddy! (They embrace. Teal'C
steps back, points Jack's sidearm at
Jack. His Jaffa friends point ZATS at
the three.) Whatcha got goin' here,
Teal'C? ( Apophis walks up.)
APOPHIS
WELL DONE, TEAL'C! FINALLY YOU MAY RESUME
YOUR RIGHTFULL POSITION AS MY FIRST
PRIME. (SG1 look surprised.)
JACK
(After being led to the room at gunpint,
quietly to Teal'C) Alright, this is
... feeling like a strange plan ...
just ... let me know what to do ...
and when ... (Teal'C knocks the ...,
backhanding him with the gun in the
nose.) AH! (Falls back hitting his head
hard ... ) Whoa! (Holding nose.) OWW!
DANNY
(Advancing toward the Jaffa, stops when
Teal'C raises the gun) Come on, Teal'C,
you don't really think you're ... still
first prime of Apophis?
TEAL'C
I have never ceased to be in the service
of my GOD.
JACK
(Getting up) All right! That's sounding
a little brainwashey to me! You don't
believe that guy's a god any more than
I do! (Teal'C lowers the gun, and look
at Jack) What the hell's that supposed
to mean? (Stoic look from the Jaffa)
Come on! We're friends! You're trying
to tell me you don't remember what's
happened these last 4 years?
TEAL'C
I remember everything. It makes me ILL
to think I was forced to pretend to
be your friend. (Danny raised his eyebrows,
and glanced back at Sam) So many times,
I've saved your life when I've wished
I could watch you DIE!
JACK
It hurts me that you would say that
... but ... that's OK ... cause I know
it's not true.
TEAL'C
Your belief is not neccessary.
JACK
This doesn't make any sense. (A few
seconds silence) Come on! You and I
TOGETHER have taken down half a dozen
Goa'Ulds.
TEAL'C
Enemies of Apophis.
JACK
And we kicked his ass twice! Hell, you
sat around and watched him DIE once!
TEAL'C
(Proudly) I knew he would be reborne
more powerful than ever!
JACK
I'm talking to a wall here! (To Danny
and Sam) Anybody?
DANNY
Teal'C, remember when Apophis brainwashed
your son, Ry'Ac? (Teal'C turns to leave)
Consider the possibility. (Teal'C closes
the door) ... Or don't.
TEAL'C
(Punching in the lock code) (To other
Jaffa) Unload the sarcophagus and the
crates from the cargo ship.
JACK
(Punching in on the console) I'm starting
to wonder why they didn't put us in
the brig.
SAM
Probrably cause the lower levels were
damaged in the fire fight.
JACK
(Danny's walking circles around the
room in back of them ) Think you can
hotwire this thing?
SAM
Well, I assume there's some sort of
safety mechonism to ensure against that,
I mean, otherwise it'd be pretty STUPID
to lock us in here, wouldn't it? (He
looks hurt, turning his head to the
side.) Of course, I could give it a
shot. (Walking past him) ... Sir.
JACK
Thank you. (He smiles and nods , then
walks away)
Jaffa are shown moving crates via rings from the cargo ship to
the big ship. A replicator is shown eating thru one)
APOPHIS
(Sitting in throne) WHO DOES CHRONUS'S
DECORATION?
JAFFA
Course has been plotted for Delmack.
Averting all power from shields and
weapons, and entering hyperspeed. (They
launch into hyperspeed)
APOPHIS
(Teal'C arrives, and kneels before his
god) THE TOK'RA SEL'MACK HAS THUSFAR
ALLUDED CAPTURE.
TEAL'C
I will see to it personally, My Lord.
APOPHIS
I'M SURE YOU WILL NOT FAIL ME, TEAL'C.
(Teal'C stands, bows, then leaves)
Back to Humans.
SAM
(At control panel, to Jack) I really
have no idea what I'm doing here.
JACK
Keep trying. You might get lucky.
SAM
Sir, I really hate to sound negative,
but I think it's pretty safe to say
that without more insight into how these
things ACTUALLY work, I've got pretty
much ZERO chance of actually hitting
the ... (Door opens) OK. Maybe not zero.
(Jacob walks in)
JACOB
Come on. (He's met by a staff carrying
Teal'C.)
TEAL'C
Inside.
JACK
Come on, Teal'C. A part of you HAS to
know the truth.
TEAL'C
The truth is, you are a prisoner of
Apophis. When the symbiote that I carry
matures, You will become it's host.
JACK
(Danny looks at him) OK. I meant the
other truth. (Teal'C points his staff
at the control panel, which is inches
away from Sam. Her eyes widen.) Look
out. (The blast nearly misses her, and
she runs into her Daddy's arms.)
JAFFA#2
(In hall after Teal'C closes door, to
Teal'C.) We will die long before we
reach Delmack without new symbiotes!
TEAL'C
Apophis will live on. And we shall serve
him well until we die with HONOR in
his name.
TEAL'C
(Pushing The Jaffa out of the way) Power
is being diverted from the hyperdrive
engines.
SAM
We just dropped out of hyperspeed.
TEAL'C
My Lord, the ship's systems are failing.
I am unable to bring the ship's engines
back online.
Apophis says something in Goa'Uld. Teal'C and the baddie gang
go check the engines, and discover a bunch of bugs crawling around
the room. A jaffa raises his ZAT, but Teal'C makes him lower
it. He just looks at the bugs as if to say "Uh-Oh!"
JACK
(The door opens halfway) That's odd.
DANNY
Uh-Oh!
JACK
(Sam and Jacob move nervoulsly.) Uh
... excuse me. (Crawls over Danny's
still feet going toward the door to
peek out. He sees a bunch of bugs crossing.)
This could be a problem.
SAM
Sir, if they've already got control
of the ship's primary systems ...
JACK
... this could be a problem.
There's a bug coming out of the wall. It's viewpoint of a still
Daniel is shown. It starts to move toward him, he flinches in
fear.
SAM
It won't attack you unless threatened.
(Daniel quickly moves away from the
wall, the bug following him)
DANNY
(Great shot of Danny with Sam next to
him from the bug's POV) Yeah. We Still
maybe should go.
They all move toward the door, and roll under it.
TEAL'C
MY Lord. The ship is infested with replicators.
APOPHIS
HOW?!
TEAL'C
I am unsure. They control the engine
room.
APOPHIS
DESTROY THEM!!!
TEAL'C
We cannot. There are too many of them,
and too few of us. We must ... (Radio
goes out)
APOPHIS
KREE, JAFFA! (They walk out into the
hall, the Jaffa protecting Apophis.
They are met by replicators, so they
turn to go down the other hall. They
meet up with more Replicators in the
other hall. Apophis says something in
Jaffa which I figure means fire, cause
the Jaffa fire ZATS and staff weaons
at the replicators. Apophis, realizing
that the ZATS and staffs are ineffective,
goes back to the bridge, closing the
door to the screams of the Jaffa. He
looks like he doesn't care as his humble
servants continue to scream.)
JACK
(The three humans and Tok'Ra find the
storage room, opening a box, seeing
their guns) Hello!
SAM
(After she and Danny see the box that
the replicator came out of.) It's been
what? 10, 11 hours since we've picked
up the cargo ship? (As they're arming
theirselves) The replicators have have
plently enough time to reach unmanageably
large numbers.
JACOB
Let's just hope they left the cargo
ship alone. It's our only way out of
here.
SAM
Chances are they have. I mean they focus
on controling the mothership first.
DANNY
Well, brainwashing or not, we can't
just leave Teal'C here.
JACK
I know. (Handing them weapons) You and
Jacob secure the cargo ship. Carter?
You're with me. (They're doing do major
Arming.)
JACOB
(Holding up a Goa'Uld granade.) You
know how to use one of these?
JACK
(Looking at it in discust.) Sure. (Takes
it from Jacob)
TEAL'C
(Walking down the hall, talking to a
Jaffa) We must assure that Apophis reached
the cargo bay safely.
JAFFA
He is a GOD. Is he powerless against
these demons.
TEAL'C
What you say is blasphamy. If I hear
you say it again, I will kill you myself!
JAFFA
If our weapons have no effect, what
can we do?
TEAL'C
Human weapons will work. We have crates
of them in storage. (He stops, putting
up his hand to motion the Jaffa to stop.)
(Sam and Jack are shown facing each
other down the hall) Jaffa. (He continues
walking) (Jack arms the grenade, and
throws it toward the Jaffa.) (The Jaffa
see it's a blinding grenade, and turn
as the light comesout of the device.)
(A firefight ensues)
JACK
(Yelling) TEAL'C! You'll want to get
off this ship ... NOW!!!! (He shoots
some more)
JACOB
Atmospheric shute is online. Cargo Bay
is pressurized.
DANNY
Looks clear. (Clears throat) I have
what may seem like a dumb question ...
JACOB
Yeah?
DANNY
Don't we need to open those big cargo
doors in order to fly this ship out?
JACOB
Well, this ship has remote access to
the door controls. (Quieter) Hopefully
the bugs haven't over ridden it.
DANNY
Youo, you ,you don't wanna ... check?
JACOB
(Torn) Uh ... I ... don't wanna tip
em off until we have to.
SAM
(Still in a firefight, yelling) Sir!
We gotta move!
Teal'C is standing against the wall as a bug moves toward him.
He discharges his staff, then turns it to his teammates. Jack
has no choice but to shoot him, hitting him in his armered chest.
Teal'C falls back.
SAM
(Checking Teal'C) He's alive.
JACK
Hope "Junior" keeps him that way.
Apophis is trying to get the console to work. The sensors are
pretty much shot. He doesn't look pleased. He hears the bugs,
and turns to see them crawling all over his throne. He has a
look like "Uh-Oh!"
JACK
Yeah, he ya go! (To Danny)
DANNY
He's been shot!
JACK
Yeah, he resisted a little.
DANNY
We were starting to worry you guys wasn't
gonna make it.
JACOB
(To Danny) I didn't say it, though.
JACK
(To Sam and Danny) Tie him up! (Hyperdrive
sets in) (To Jacob) What was that?
JACOB
The mothership just jumped to hyperspeed.
JACK
(Look on his face says he knows the
answer to the question he's about to
ask) Now, what?
JACOB
Now ... nothing. We can't open the cargo
bay doors and fly out of here while
we're in hyperspace. (Danny closes his
eyes, while Jack looks worried.) (The
three human and the Tok'Ra walk thru
the halls) According to this, the ship
is headed toward the last set of coordinates
that were entered ...Sok'Ar's old planet.
Apophis's new base.
SAM
(After a beep) Uh ... dad ...
JACOB
I see. The ship is traveling at 10 X's
it's capable hyperspeed?
SAM
And the speed's still increasing ...
12 times ... 20 times ... 30! (Amazed)
This is incrediable! The bugs must have
modified the engines.
JACOB
They can do that?!
SAM
They can do almost anything. They are
very advanced. The individual blocks
can come together to achieve what ever
pattern they need to achieve their goal.
DANNY
But I thought they didn't care about
traveling fast.
SAM
Only while they're multiplying. Once
they've reached a critical number, they
look for new technology to consume.
JACOB
Then the information in the computer
about Apophis's base must make them
it look pretty apatizing. This is great
news! We'll be back in out own galaxy
in no time, when they come out of hyperspeed,
we can jump ship, and fly home!
JACK
I wouldn't exactly call that GREAT news.
SAM
We can't let the bugs get a foothold
in our galaxy. These things are relentless.
Even the asguard haven't been able to
stop them.
JACK
What about self-distruct?
SAM
Right! Once it was set on Apophis's
ship, the bugs didn't seem to be able
to shut it off.
JACOB
Looks like the bugs have figured out
Goa'Uld computers. We can't get into
the main system.
JACK
All right. Come on, let's figure this
out! We got em on Thor's ship.
JACOB
How?
SAM
We distroyed the decleration drive just
before it entered Earth's atmosphere.
It couldn't withstand an uncontrolled
reentry.
JACOB
Goa'Uld motherships use sublight engines
to slow down after exiting hyperspeed.
If we distroy the sublight engines ...
SAM
... the ship won't be able to stop ...
JACOB
... and it'll crash right into Apophis's
planet.
SAM
(Jack looks worried) Now, we would have
to wait until just after the ship comes
out from hyperspace. So the bugs won't
have time to change trajectory.
JACK
All right. How do we distroy these engines?
JACOB
All we have to do is eliminate the control
crystals.
SAM
In the engine room?
DANNY
Which is bug central, probrably.
JACK
So we plant C4.
SAM
The bugs could disable the detinator
by the time we leave and set it off.
JACK
What are you saying?
SAM
To be sure, we would have to PHYSICALLY
destroy the crystals ourselves. A P90
at close range would do the job.
JACK
Oh, no! Now, see? That doesn't sound
like a g ...
JACOB
You got a better idea? Mr. Positive?
SAM
The ship has now reached over 800 times
it's previous max. speed.
JACOB
All right! We'll be there pretty soon.
One of us has to get the cargo ship
charged up and ready to go.
JACK
That would be you. Carter, Daniel, with
me.
JACOB
It's gonna be tight, guys. You have
about 30 seconds to get from the engine
room back to the cargo bay.
JACK
Just keep it runnin'.
JACOB
All right. Good luck!
JACK
(As they enter the engine room) Oww
... crap!
DANNY
What the hell is that?!
JACK
(The Queen is shown) That ... is a BIG
bug!
SAM
(Amazed) I guess that explains the extra
power.
JACK
Uh ... listen ... (Whispers) Let's not
wake it up. (Jake arrives at the cargo
ship.)
SAM
OK. Control panel.
JACK
(As she's walking rtoward the chrystals)
Whoa! (She takes the chrystals out)
Ready?
SAM
Wait for it, Sir. (Hyperspeed shuts
down as they arrive at Delmack, The
humans shoot at the chrystals , waking
up the Queen. She begins shooting her
babies at them)
JACK
(Running) Go, go, go, go, go! (Back
at the ship, the cargo bay doors open.
SG1 are running thru the halls shooting
at the bugs) (A bug looks at danny,
and advances toward him, stopping his
shooting, he ducks behind a shooting
Jack.)
SAM
(Seeing bugs down the corridor infront
of them) That's the way we have to go!
(Danny's shooting the bugs behind the
officers)
JACK
Let's go! (The officers run , shooting
bugs in the front of them , while Danny
RUNS BACKWARDS shooting bugs inback
of them! )
JACOB
(The ship's hovering) Guys! We gotta
go now! Jack! Sam! Daniel!
SAM
Dad! We're coming up to the cargo bay!
We're finished the ring room on level
2. Can you ring us over multi?
JACOB
I'll try!
SAM
HURRY! (Jake punches on the console,
and the rings are heard. He opens the
door) Thanks!
JACK
Let's get outta here!
SAM
The doors are closing!
JACOB
They've over riden our control panel.
SAM
(As they're flying toward the closing
doors) Are we gonna make it?
JACOB
I don't know, Sam. (They make it! )
Apophis screams as the replicators are crawling over his personal
shield. The ship is seen crashing into Delmack.
JACK
I'm gonna go check on Teal'C.
JACOB
Jack. You got his body back. Getting
his mind back may not be as easy.
TEAL'C
(To JAck) You may torture me all you
wish. I will tell you nothing.
JACK
I'm sorry I had to shoot you. You didn't
give me much choice. (Teal'C is silent)
Apophis ... is dead.
TEAL'C
(Stoic look) I do not believe you.
JACK
Trust me.
TEAL'C
GODS can not BE killed! (another stoic
look)
THE END
