                                        "EXODUS"

               Previously on SG1- Clips from Crossroads, The Serpents Venom, 
               Double Jeopardy
 
               
               A mother ship flies towards a planet. It's Vorash.

               
               THE TOK'RA TUNNELS

               
                                     TANITH
                         What is happening?

               
                                     TOK'RA WOMAN1
                         Defence systems picked up a mothership 
                         entering orbit.
 
               
                                     TANITH
                         We must evacuate immediately.

               
                                     TOK'RA WOMAN1
                         We have expecting it.

               
               O'Neill, Carter, Daniel, Teal'c and Jacob are ringed down.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Hey kids! We're not parked in a red 
                         zone are we?

               Jack, Teal'c and Jacob are walking through a tunnel.

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Tanith was surprised to see us.

               
                                     JACOB
                         Uh huh. We didn't want to give him any 
                         warning.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Doesn't suspect you're on to him?

               
                                     JACOB
                         Not that we know of. We'll see soon 
                         enough.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Of what do you speak?

               
                                     JACOB
                         Well, thanks to the mothership you're 
                         so graciously lending us.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Not me. Hammond. It was an order remember?
 
                         
               
                                     JACOB
                         Well anyway, we'll be able to move the 
                         Stargate to a new planet not currently 
                         on the Goa'uld map. We'll finally be 
                         able to ensure the security of a more 
                         permanent Tok'ra base. As useful as 
                         Tanith has been in relaying false information 
                         to Apophis, we can't afford to take 
                         him with us.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         What will become of him?

               
                                     JACOB
                         We have a little surprise planned. Shall 
                         we?
 
               
               They walk into a room.

               
                                     TOK'RA WOMAN1
                         Colonel O'Neill. Teal'c. Allow me to 
                         welcome you and your team back to Vorash. 
                         High Counsellor Per'sus sends his greetings.
 
                         
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Always a pleasure.

               
                                     TANITH
                         I must say Colonel, I was most intrigued 
                         by your means of arrival.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Yeah, it's a sweet ride. A little rusty 
                         but it's still got zip.
 
               
                                     TANITH
                         How exactly did a Goa'uld mothership 
                         come into your possession?
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Well it was kind of a trade deal.

               
                                     TANITH
                         How so?

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Chronus gave us his ship and he got 
                         what was coming to him.
 
               
                                     TANITH
                         Really? Chronus is dead.

               
                                     JACOB/SELMAK
                         Now that we have access to a mothership, 
                         we will be able to move our people and 
                         our Stargate as well and thereby establish 
                         a completely new and secure base.
 
                         
               
                                     TANITH
                         I don't understand. Why have I been 
                         excluded from such important information?
 
                         
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         The Tok'ra did not wish Apophis to be 
                         informed.
 
               
                                     JACOB/SELMAK
                         We've been aware of your duplicity from 
                         the beginning. You deceived and then 
                         murdered the Jaffa Shau'nac. You took 
                         the host Hebron and you've been acting 
                         as a spy amongst us ever since.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         You have been used to channel disinformation 
                         to Apophis. He will most be most displeased 
                         when he learns the truth.
 
               
                                     TANITH
                         This is absurd.

               
               He tries to leave but is surrounded by Tok'ra with zats. He looks 
               up at Teal'c and his eyes glow.
 
               
                                     TANITH
                         You will never escape. The System Lords 
                         will hunt you down to the ends of the 
                         galaxy.
 
               
               He walks off with the guards.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         That guy is a living cliché.

               
               Teal'c walks to a cell containing Tanith guarded by two Tok'ra.
 
               
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         I wish to speak to the prisoner.

               
               One of the guards lowers the shield.

               
                                     TANITH
                         I wasn't aware I was allowed guests. 
                         How kind of you to come visit me Teal'c.
 
                         
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         My presence here is not motivated by 
                         kindness. I am here to deliver your 
                         sentence as decreed by the Tok'ra High 
                         Council.
 
               
                                     TANITH
                         Death I suppose?

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         You are to be extracted from the host 
                         Hebron and left behind here on Vorash. 
                         If you are fortunate, you will die before 
                         Apophis discovers how you have been 
                         used by the Tok'ra.
 
               
                                     TANITH
                         I am sure you would like to kill me 
                         with your bare hands as I did to your 
                         beloved Shau'nac. You of all would appreciate 
                         how much more satisfying it is to see 
                         the fear and pain in the eyes of your 
                         victim as they die.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         You took great pleasure in the murder 
                         of Shau'nac. But you must understand 
                         the price you paid. While Apophis was 
                         being diverted by your unwitting deception 
                         the Tok'ra were able to move freely 
                         through Goa'uld territory untouched. 
                         Rescuing stranded agents, freeing captured 
                         allies. Hundreds of lives were saved 
                         by the false information you spread. 
                         The Tok'ra owe you a debt of gratitude 
                         Tanith. Were it not for the relative 
                         ease with which you allowed yourself 
                         to be manipulated, Apophis may have 
                         eliminated the Tok'ra.
 
               
                                     TANITH
                         All they have done is win a respite. 
                         Inevitabley the Tok'ra/Tau'ri alliance 
                         will fall and so many others.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Not by any action of yours. I will watch 
                         you die like all of the other false 
                         God's whose demise I have witnessed. 
                         Sokar, Seth, Hathor, Heru'er, Chronus.
 
                         
               
                                     TANITH
                         I am sure they died with more honour 
                         than Shau'nac. She cried out for you 
                         like a baby weeps for it's mother as 
                         I slowly extinguished her life.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         You are attempting to goad me into killing 
                         you, thereby avoiding the extraction 
                         process. I understand it to be excruciatingly 
                         painful for the symbiote.
 
               
                                     TANITH
                         I am far more valuable to you alive 
                         than dead.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         The Tok'ra do not believe so and I am 
                         inclined to agree.
 
               
               Teal'c walks out of the cell and the shield goes back up.

               
               SG1's mothership.

               
               Jack and Jacob are walking along.

               
                                     JACOB
                         (To a couple of Tok'ra) You'll have 
                         to take that to the secondary cargo 
                         hold, we need to room for the Stargate.
 
                         
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Hey! Don't scuff the walls. (To Jacob) 
                         I want this ship back the way we found 
                         it.
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         We know Jack. I still don't think it's 
                         really necessary for you to be here.
 
                         
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Sorry, not letting her out of my sight.
 
                         
               
                                     JACOB
                         My mission is to oversee the relocation 
                         of the Tok'ra base. What's yours again?
 
                         
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Protect Earth's big fat asset. We've 
                         got about a thousand engineers and scientists 
                         just drooling to go through this thing.
 
                         
               
                                     JACOB
                         You really think that's wise?

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Don't start with me Jake.

               
                                     JACOB
                         Remember when you tried to retrofit 
                         a death glider?
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Yes I have that memory.

               
                                     JACOB
                         This is a vastly more complicated piece 
                         of technology.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Which is exactly why we're loaning it 
                         to you in exchange for flying lessons.
 
                         
               
                                     JACOB
                         You know what I mean. You should really 
                         leave the ship with us.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Not a chance.

               
                                     JACOB
                         This is me talking Jack, Jacob not Selmak. 
                         You have no idea how dangerous this 
                         thing is.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Hey! We were smart enough to steal it 
                         in the first place, which is more than 
                         the Tok'ra have been able to do.
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         We don't operate that way.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Well maybe it's time you took a more 
                         direct approach. The Tok'ra have been 
                         around for what, two thousand years? 
                         In all that time how many System Lords 
                         have you taken down?
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         Oh yeah, things have certainly gotten 
                         better out here since you started killing 
                         Goa'ulds one by one. Lets examine the 
                         results, in each case more warlike Goa'ulds 
                         have stepped in to fill their place, 
                         there's more chaos than ever before. 
                         With the power Apophis now has we are 
                         on the brink of losing any chance of 
                         ever defeating the Goa'uld.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         At least we're doing something.

               
                                     JACOB
                         Well we're doing something as well, 
                         maybe our plan is a little more long 
                         term but at least we have one.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         What plan?

               
                                     JACOB
                         Undermine the Goa'ulds individual power 
                         and keep them fighting amongst themselves 
                         until we have a way of eliminating them. 
                         Once and for all.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Go on.

               
                                     JACOB
                         We're working on it Jack.

               
               Tanith's cell.

               
               He is guarded and starts to talk to the guard.

               
                                     TANITH
                         You think you can save my host Hebron 
                         by separating him from me? I will not 
                         allow you to kill me. Hebron's life 
                         is in my hands. If I am to die he will 
                         die with me.
 
               
               He closes his eyes and collapses. The guard speaks into a communication 
               device.
 
               
                                     TOK'RA GUARD1
                         The prisoner just collapsed.

               
               A Tok'ra woman arrives.

               
                                     TOK'RA WOMAN2
                         Lower the shield. Lower the shield! 
                         We cannot just stand by and allow him 
                         to kill the host.
 
               
               The guard lowers the shield and goes in. The second guard raises 
               his zat gun. The first guard takes his pulse.
 
               
                                     TOK'RA GUARD1
                         He's already dead.

               
               A hand then comes up to choke him.

               
               Tok'ra Meeting room.

               
                                     CARTER
                         We've finished loading the supplies 
                         onto the ship. It's time to start transporting 
                         your people up.
 
               
                                     TOK'RA
                         We will begin immediately.

               
               An alarm goes off and Jacob runs in.

               
                                     JACOB
                         It's Tanith. He's escaped.

               
               The surface of the planet.

               
               Tanith runs over and starts to dig in the dunes. He pulls out 
               a tiny long-range communication device that Cordesh used in The 
               Tok'ra.
 
               
               The surface of the planet.

               
               Teal'c is surveying the desert. Jack and a few other Tok'ra are 
               with him.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Tanith could not have escaped through 
                         the Stargate. It has been heavily guarded 
                         the entire time.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Yeah, what by the same guys who were 
                         guarding him in the first place? (He 
                         turns to the Tok'ra) No offence.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         He is out here somewhere.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Ahh well he's boned without water.
 
                         
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         The symbiote will sustain him for a 
                         considerable time.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Big desert.

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         I will continue looking.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Keep in touch.

               
               Jack and two Tok'ra move to go back into the tunnels.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         So how do you guys know where to stand 
                         anyway?
 
               
               The Tok'ra tunnels.

               
               Daniel comes to meet them.

               
                                     DANIEL
                         Any sign of him?

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Nope, he's still looking.

               
                                     DANIEL
                         You guys have been up there for hours 
                         already.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         It's a jaffa revenge thing.

               
               Tok'ra meeting room.

               
               Daniel and Jack walk in where Sam and Jacob are seated.

               
                                     JACOB
                         It seems Tanith's been busy. We've received 
                         word from one of our operatives that 
                         Apophis has been given our location.
 
                         
               
                                     DANIEL
                         Guess he's trying to make up for the 
                         last few months.
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         An attack fleet is being assembled.
 
                         
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         How long will it take him to get here?
 
                         
               
                                     JACOB
                         Less than a day.

               
                                     DANIEL
                         We have to speed up the evacuation.
 
                         
               
                                     CARTER
                         We're gonna send them through the Gate.
 
                         
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         I thought we were gonna take `em on 
                         the ship?
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         Sam and I have come up with a new plan.
 
                         
               
                                     CARTER
                         If it works we may be able to wipe out 
                         a significant part of Apophis' fleet 
                         in one shot. This is a sun that Vorash 
                         is orbiting. It's a regular main sequence 
                         star with a core temperature of about 
                         15 million degrees and enough hydrogen 
                         to burn for another five billion years.
 
                         
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Yeah?

               
                                     JACOB
                         We wanna blow it up.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Wow..

               
                                     DANIEL
                         That's err.

               
                                     O'NEILL/DANIEL
                         Ambitious.

               
                                     CARTER
                         Every star is a delicate balance between 
                         the explosive force of the fusion going 
                         on in it's core which tends to want 
                         to blow it apart and the gravitational 
                         force of it's mass which tends to want 
                         to crush it into a little ball. Now 
                         if we could disrupt that balance by 
                         suddenly removing some of the star's 
                         mass we could create an artificial supernova. 
                         The blast wave would expand at nearly 
                         the speed of light. It would destroy 
                         everything in this system within a matter 
                         of minutes.
 
               
                                     DANIEL
                         Err.. How are we supposed to remove 
                         some of the star's mass?
 
               
                                     CARTER
                         Well. err. this is going to sound a 
                         little crazy but we dial P3W 451, it's 
                         the planet where we encountered the 
                         black hole.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Wow. That sounds a little crazy.

               
                                     CARTER
                         Yeah.

               
                                     JACOB
                         We take the Stargate in the mothership 
                         and bring it as close to the sun as 
                         we can. Then we dial the black hole, 
                         enclose the Gate in a force field and 
                         jettison it.
 
               
                                     CARTER
                         The suns gravity will pull it in, the 
                         force field will disintegrate and stellar 
                         matter will be sucked through that wormhole 
                         like water through a fire hose.
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         It's likely the Gate won't last long 
                         but we figure it'll be long enough.
 
                         
               
                                     DANIEL
                         Excuse me, but wasn't the Gate on P3W 
                         451 sucked into the black hole a long 
                         time ago?
 
               
                                     CARTER
                         Not necessarily. That planet was probably 
                         ripped to pieces but it could take years 
                         for that matter to spiral into the event 
                         horizon especially given the time distortion.
 
                         
               
                                     JACOB
                         Either way we'll know as soon as we 
                         try to dial out. If we can't make a 
                         connection, we abort the plan and get 
                         the hell out of there.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Well, let me think about this a moment.
 
                         
               
                                     JACOB
                         You're the one who wanted to take more 
                         direct measures Jack. The Council's 
                         already approved the plan. But it's 
                         your ship, which means it's your call.
 
                         
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Still thinking.

               
                                     CARTER
                         Sir, this solar system is completely 
                         abandoned and barren. Apophis' fleet 
                         is on the way. We may never have an 
                         opportunity like this again.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Okay.

               
               Tok'ra room.

               
               Teal'c is sitting at a table. Daniel walks in.

               
                                     DANIEL
                         Hey Teal'c. I've been looking for you. 
                         There's been a change in plans.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         I have been informed of Major Carter's 
                         plans.
 
               
                                     DANIEL
                         So you understand then that there's 
                         nowhere for Tanith to run? This whole 
                         planet is going to be incinerated.
 
                         
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         If all goes according to plan, yes.
 
                         
               
                                     DANIEL
                         Well you don't think we can pull it 
                         off?
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         I have great confidence in both Selmak 
                         and Major Carter.
 
               
                                     DANIEL
                         But?

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Twice I have had the opportunity to 
                         avenge the murder of Shau'nac. Twice 
                         I have let Tanith slip through my grasp. 
                         I have failed Shau'nac.
 
               
                                     DANIEL
                         That's not true. You let Tanith live 
                         so the Tok'ra could use him and it worked. 
                         And now we're about to take down Apophis 
                         and the largest Goa'uld fleet ever assembled.
 
                         
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         It will be a great victory.

               
                                     DANIEL
                         That's right.

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         And knowing what Apophis did to Sha're 
                         would you not trade it all for the opportunity 
                         to crush the life from his throat with 
                         your bare hands?
 
               
                                     DANIEL
                         Well, I'd be lying to you if I said 
                         I'd never thought about it but that 
                         doesn't mean I'd do it, given a more 
                         rational option.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         In the future I will not be capable 
                         of such restraint.
 
               
               SG1's mothership.

               
               Jack, Daniel and Teal'c are walking down a corridor to the pel'tac.
 
               
               
                                     CARTER
                         The last of the Tok'ra have been evacuated 
                         and the Stargate's been loaded into 
                         the cargo bay. We're good to go.
 
               
               Jack turns and sees the throne.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Oohh. Shotgun.

               
                                     JACOB
                         Setting course for the sun. I'm picking 
                         up the fleet on long range scanners. 
                         At current speed they'll be here in 
                         68 minutes.
 
               
                                     CARTER
                         The timing has to be precise. Once we're 
                         close enough to the sun we'll slow to 
                         5% light speed and release the gate. 
                         That should give us more than enough 
                         time to get away.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         How much advance warning is Apophis 
                         gonna have?
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         They won't be able to detect the Gate 
                         on their screens and they won't know 
                         Vorash is deserted until they're in 
                         orbit. By then it will be too late.
 
                         
               
               Outside the Cargo Bay of Sg1's mothership.

               
               Jack and Sam go to dial up the Gate.

               
                                     JACOB (VOICEOVER)
                         We're in position. Slowing to 5% light 
                         speed.

                         Ready when you are.

               
                                     CARTER
                         (To O'Neill) It worked. The Gate on 
                         P3W 451 is still active. Engaging force 
                         field. (She exhales)
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Summat wrong?

               
                                     CARTER
                         No. I've just never blown up a star 
                         before.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Well they say the first one's always 
                         the hardest. (Sam looks at him) They 
                         say that.
 
               
                                     CARTER
                         Opening the cargo bay doors. Releasing 
                         the clamps. And the Gate is away.

                         to go. Prepare for hyperspeed.
 
               
               A goa'uld ship suddenly decloaks and starts firing.

               
                                     DANIEL
                         What the hell's that?

               
               Jack and Sam arrive.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         What the hell was that?

               
                                     JACOB
                         We're under attack. Teal'c, weapons.
 
                         
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Shields are inoperative.

               
                                     JACOB
                         It can't be Apophis, it's too soon.
 
                         
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Acquiring target. It is an alkesh. A 
                         goa'uld mid range bomber.
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         It must have been cloaked.

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Weapons are charged. Returning fire.
 
                         
               
                                     JACOB
                         She's too quick. Here she comes again 
                         Teal'c.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Jacob?

               
                                     JACOB
                         We've lost main power. Hyperdrive is 
                         down. We're sitting ducks.
 
               
                                     DANIEL
                         Why haven't they finished us off?

               
                                     JACOB
                         They took a direct hit, they might be 
                         just as damaged as we are.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Hey, whose `they' anyway?

               
                                     JACOB
                         I have no idea

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Tactical indicators are down.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Weapons?

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Inoperable.

               
                                     JACOB
                         I have to go check it out.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Hey! Whoa! We've still got an enemy 
                         ship out there.
 
               
                                     CARTER
                         Sir, when that Gate reaches the sun..
 
                         
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         It's not gonna make any difference if 
                         we get blown out of the sky.
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         What do you want us to do Jack? We have 
                         no weapons or shields.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Gliders. This ship's got gliders right?
 
                         
               
                                     JACOB
                         Of course.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Teal'c.

               
               Jack and Teal'c launch a glider.

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         The alkesh has an significant advantage 
                         in both size and armaments.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Hey nice pre-flight there.

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         However we have superior maneouvrability.
 
                         
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Alright there she is.

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Jacob was right. The ship appears to 
                         have been damaged.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Let's put her out of misery. Powering 
                         weapons.
 
               
               The ship then flies off.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         What the hell?

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         They appear to have repaired their engines.
 
                         
               
               SG1's mothership

               
                                     JACOB
                         Jack? What's happening out there?

               
                                     O'NEILL VOICEOVER
                         They're breaking off.

               
                                     JACOB
                         So let them go.

               
               Glider

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         O'Neill, the ship appears to be heading 
                         for Vorash.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Ahh Teal'c?

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         We must not allow Tanith to escape.
 
                         
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         (To Jacob) Teal'c thinks the ship might 
                         be going to pick up Tanith.
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         That makes sense Jack. He probably had 
                         his ship waiting in a nearby system 
                         to hold time. That's why they got here 
                         so fast.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Yeah well seems we're going after him.
 
                         
               
                                     DANIEL
                         It's a jaffa revenge thing.

               
                                     CARTER
                         Sir, you only have a little more than 
                         an hour.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Ahh Carter relax. We'll be back in plenty 
                         of time. Right Teal'c, we'll be back 
                         in plenty of time? Buddy? Pal? Oh God.

                                     JACOB
                         Sam. I'm gonna need your help with the 
                         hyperdrive. Dr. Jackson, you have the 
                         pel'tac.
 
               
                                     DANIEL
                         Ahh what, what, what exactly does that 
                         mean?
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         We'll stay in touch.

               
               Glider

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Target is in range.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Weapons locked. Here we go.

               
               The alkesh starts to fire back.

               
               Vorash

               
               Tanith walks onto the dunes to await the alkesh. When he see 
               the fire fight going on he runs.
 
               
               The glider keeps firing and hits the back of the alkesh which 
               starts to explode.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Pull up Teal'c. Teal'c pull up!

               
               The alkesh explodes.

               The pel'tac.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Mayday, mayday. We are SO going in.
 
                         
               
                                     DANIEL
                         Jack can you hear me? Jack I'm not reading 
                         you, what's happening? Jack?
 
               
               Down in the power room of the mothership.

               
                                     JACOB
                         Main power's back on line. Weapons and

                         What about the hyperdrive?

               
                                     JACOB
                         The control circuit is fried. The engines 
                         themselves are fine but we'll have to 
                         re route through secondary systems.
 
                         
               
                                     CARTER
                         Well how long will that take?

               
                                     JACOB
                         We'll have to move fast.

               
                                     DANIEL VOICEOVER
                         Sam?

               
                                     CARTER
                         Go ahead.

               
                                     DANIEL
                         I just got a mayday from Jack.

               
                                     CARTER
                         What's going on?

               
                                     DANIEL
                         I don't know, I lost the transmission.
 
                         
               
                                     CARTER
                         Hang on. (To Jacob) We have to go back 
                         for them.
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         We can't. Not now.

               
                                     CARTER
                         Why not? We have sub light speed.

                         I know but I'm the only one that can 
                         fly this ship and I have to stay here 
                         and make these repairs.

                         Well I'll do them.

                         Sam.

                         We're not leaving them behind. You can 
                         talk me through it.
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         Okay. You can start by pulling out the 
                         burnt crystals.

               The glider has crashed but Jack and Teal'c have got out. They 
               are climbing up a dune.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         The propulsion system and communication 
                         array have been damaged beyond repair.
 
                         
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Ah that's good because according to 
                         my calculations we are roughly in the 
                         middle of nowhere. Give or take.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         The cruiser was on its way to pick up 
                         Tanith. Therefore we cannot be far from 
                         the Tok'ra base. If we can make it there, 
                         Major Carter and Daniel Jackson can 
                         ring us aboard the mothership.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         You're assuming they're assuming we're 
                         alive and they're coming back for us 
                         of course.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Care to make a wager O'Neill?

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         On which part?

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         I believe it is this way.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         This is SO the last time I help someone 
                         move.

                         Good the tactical display came back 
                         on line.
 
               
                                     DANIEL
                         Yeah, I think we have a problem here. 
                         I figure that flashing wasn't good news, 
                         and the fact that in Goa'uld it says... 
                         Warning, Warning.
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         It's Apophis. He's here. He's a little 
                         ahead of schedule. The other ship must 
                         have warned him to pick up the pace.

                         Yeah, what about Jack and Teal'c?

               
                                     JACOB
                         Apophis' ships are taking up attack 
                         positions around Vorash, he'd destroy 
                         us before we even got close. I'm not 
                         going to abandon them Daniel. We need 
                         to buy more time. If we move around 
                         behind the sun, the fleet won't spot 
                         us.

                         Ah this is a bad idea. I said that remember. 
                         Remember I said, General this is a bad 
                         idea.
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         I remember O'Neill.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Let the Tok'ra get their own ship I 
                         said. They don't share with us, why 
                         should we share with them?
 
               
                                     TEAL'C
                         I remember.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Yep, that's what I said.

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         How much time remains before the sun 
                         explodes O'Neill?
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Huh, oh 45 minutes.

               
                                     TEAL'C
                         Then at least we have prevented Tanith 
                         from escaping.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Yes, at least we have that.

                         There may still be one more thing for

               Jaffa No.1 shoots Teal'c in the back with a staff weapon. He 
               falls and Jack runs for cover. Turning he then shoots Jaffa No. 
               1. Jaffa No.2 shoots Jack with a zat. Jack falls but doesn't 
               pass out and shoots Jaffa No.2. Jack then sees Tanith standing 
               by Teal'c and shoots him as the rings take him down with Teal'c.

                         Yeah, I'm here. Hey, thanks for checking 
                         in.
 
               
                                     DANIEL VOICEOVER
                         Yeah, we had a little trouble avoiding 
                         Apophis' fleet. Are you in position 
                         to be ringed up?
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Yeah, I s'pose. I don't know.

               
                                     DANIEL VOICEOVER
                         Jack if you're not in position.

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Daniel just get me the hell out of here 
                         will ya?
 
               
               SG1's mothership.

               
                                     JACOB
                         We gotta get out of here.

               
                                     CARTER
                         If my calculation were correct.

               
               The sun goes nova early

               
               Apophis' mothership

               
                                     APOPHIS
                         Arm the weapons.

               
                                     JAFFA
                         My Lord.

               
               Apophis' ships are being wiped out.

               
               SG1's mothership

               
                                     JACOB
                         Engaging hyperdrive.

               
               SG1 are in hyperdrive.

               
               Suddenly they are thrown out.

               
                                     CARTER
                         What just happened?

               
                                     JACOB
                         We must have caught the tail end of 
                         the blast wave. It knocked us off course.
 
                         
               
               Jack and Daniel walk in.

               
                                     CARTER
                         Sir. Where's Teal'c?

               
                                     O'NEILL
                         I'm not sure. I think he's dead.

               
                                     JACOB
                         If Apophis has him.

               
                                     CARTER
                         We have to go back.

               
                                     JACOB
                         That may not be possible Sam. The navigational 
                         computer isn't recognising any of the 
                         star patterns. According to these readings 
                         we've travelled over 4 million light 
                         years.
 
               
                                     CARTER
                         That's impossible.

               
                                     JACOB
                         We're not even in our own galaxy anymore.
 
                         
               
                                     CARTER
                         Well the explosion must have somehow 
                         affected the subspace window created 
                         by the hyperdrive.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         Wait a minute, what are you saying, 
                         we can't get back?
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         I don't know. The ship isn't normally 
                         capable of going so fast.
 
               
                                     O'NEILL
                         It only took us a few seconds to get 
                         here.
 
               
                                     JACOB
                         Given our current position, and maximum 
                         hyperdrive speed, it's gonna take us 
                         125 years to get back. Long range sensors 
                         are picking up another ship. It's Apophis..
 
                         
               
               TO BE CONTINUED

               
               THE END
