STARGATE SG1

"FULL CIRCLE"
By
Robert C. Cooper
ABYDOS
Skaara runs along to a tent.
ELDER
Skaara, join us. You know why you are
here?
SKAARA
Then it is true?
ELDER
There’s not much time. Kasuf will take
the women and children to the caves
of Kalima where they will be safe.
SKAARA
No one will be safe anywhere. How can
we even hope to defend ourselves against
a Goa’uld as powerful as Anubis?
ELDER
Our lives are meaningless if we don’t
stop him from finding what he seeks
here. You must rally all those capable
of fighting.
SKAARA
All those willing to die.
DANIEL
All those who must not fail.
SKAARA
Daniel?
DANIEL
You won’t be alone.
TITLES
SGC CORRIDOR
Jack walks to an elevator and swipes his card. He enters and
inserts his card by the buttons and presses for Level 28. The
lights suddenly go out and the elevator stops. Jack picks up
the phone.
O’NEILL
Hello? This is C.. Hello?
DANIEL
Jack?
Jack puts the phone to his ear again.
DANIEL
Jack. Hi Jack. Jack, Abydos is in trouble.
Anubis is on his way. He’s after the
Eye of Ra. I have that replica Catherine
gave me, it looks like this. Now I’m
pretty sure the real one is located
in some secret chamber in Ra’s pyramid
on Abydos but I’m not sure where exactly.
According to legend there were six Eyes
including those held by Apophis, Osiris
and Tiamat among others. Each is powerful
on its own but to use them in combination
increases that power ten fold. Recently,
Anubis has managed to track down five
of the six Eyes and only needs Ra’s
to complete the set. He’s looked everywhere
Ra used to hang out except Abydos; now
he’s on his way there.
O’NEILL
I’m sure that was an aspirin I took
this morning.
DANIEL
Jack, it’s really me. It’s me, you have
to help, you have to find the Eye of
Ra before Anubis does. Keep it, hide
it, destroy it, whatever, it doesn’t
matter, we don’t have much time.
O’NEILL
Hey Daniel, how you doing? Long time.
How are things on the higher planes?
DANIEL
Hey Jack, long time no see. How you
doing?
O’NEILL
Fine, just fine.
DANIEL
How are the knees, the back? Everything’s..
O’NEILL
Oh you know, kind of weather contingent
actually.
DANIEL
So what’s new?
O’NEILL
Ah actually a funny thing happened to
me, today, I’m riding an elevator and
an old friend of mine, someone who never
calls, never writes just shows up and
tells me all about this very important
and apparently urgent mission that needs
my attention.
DANIEL
You gonna help or...
O’NEILL
Wait; let me tell it, it’s good. You
see this buddy of mine, this pal, this
chum has ascended to a whole new level
of existence. Do you see the irony?
He’s asking for my help and he’s this
great and powerful being.
DANIEL
Jack, we’ve already been through this,
I can’t actually do anything.
O’NEILL
See, I’m still not clear on that.
DANIEL
The Others have rules; just talking
to you is a violation.
O’NEILL
What like jay walking, double parking,
what?
DANIEL
The point is, taking action that changes
human existence, that’s a big one.
O’NEILL
Let me ask you this. Have you met any
of these Other guys?
DANIEL
No.
O’NEILL
Well how do you know they’re any kind
of a threat?
DANIEL
Well good, that’s a good one. As it
is, Oma’s an outcast because she believes
helping people ascend is our duty.
O’NEILL
And that’s okay?
DANIEL
Technically, no. But she does it anyway.
Those of us that follow her are walking
a very fine line.
O’NEILL
Why don’t they try to stop her?
DANIEL
I don’t know.
O’NEILL
You don’t know?
DANIEL
No I don’t know. All I know is what
Oma has taught me. Ascension doesn’t
make you all knowing or all powerful.
It is just the beginning of the journey.
The point is, if I were to help you,
if I were to take any action to help
you, Oma would step in and stop me herself
to avoid drawing the wrath of the Others.
If they wanted to, they could stop everything
she’s been trying to do for a long time.
The lights come on and the elevator starts moving.
DANIEL
I can’t jeopardise that.
BRIEFING ROOM
Jack, Sam, Teal’c, Jonas and Hammond are there.
O’NEILL
Obviously we can’t match forces with
Anubis but apparently the Abydonians
are willing to back us on this one.
HAMMOND
Colonel, how’d you come by this intel?
O’NEILL
I didn’t say?
HAMMOND
No you didn’t.
O’NEILL
Daniel told me.
JONAS
You saw Doctor Jackson?
O’NEILL
Actually, it’s not the first time.
CARTER
Is he all right?
HAMMOND
What else did he say?
O’NEILL
Whoa, wait. You guys don’t think I’m
nuts or anything like that?
TEAL’C
I too have recently see Daniel Jackson.
CARTER
Really?
O’NEILL
Why didn’t you say something?
TEAL’C
Why did you not?
O’NEILL
Well to be honest, I wasn’t quite sure
it was really happening the first time.
TEAL’C
Neither was I.
JONAS
Did he tell you where we could find
the Eye?
O’NEILL
Uh, he doesn’t know.
CARTER
He doesn’t know?
O’NEILL
I know. Personally I think this whole
ascension thing is a bit overrated.
HAMMOND
That’s good enough for me Colonel. If
Dr Jackson is right, we have to find
that Eye before Anubis does.
ABYDOS
SG1 come through the Gate. Skaara walks in.
SKAARA
O’Neill.
O’NEILL
Skaara.
They hug.
SKAARA
It is good to see you.
CARTER
You too.
JONAS
I’m Jonas.
SKAARA
Good to meet you.
TOBAY
We are prepared to do whatever you ask.
O’NEILL
Appreciate that. Teal’c, set up a perimeter,
I want to know the second we have company.
Any idea where this Eye thing is?
SKAARA
I will show you.
They walk through into a different room lighting torches as they
go. They come to some steps and walk down.
SKAARA
This is as far as the catacombs go.
Daniel and I have spent much time here.
O’NEILL
No Eye’s?
SKAARA
The Eye of Ra is mentioned many times
on these walls.
O’NEILL
Just so we’re clear, it’s not a real
eye? It’s a kind of jewel or something.
SKAARA
We have never been able to find it.
ORBIT ABOVE ABYDOS
A massive Goa’uld ship exits hyperspace.
ABYDOS
Teal’c has set up a perimeter and they are outside the pyramid
waiting.
RA’A PYRAMID
O’NEILL
So you seeing anybody?
SKAARA
Maybe.
O’NEILL
Really? Is it serious?
SKAARA
We are betrothed.
O’NEILL
Trust me, that’s serious. Congratulations.
SKAARA
Thank you.
O’NEILL
I assume my invitation got lost in the
mail or..?
SKAARA
I wanted to ask you to sha’loki. To
stand beside me.
O’NEILL
During the ceremony right?
SKAARA
Yes, yes.
O’NEILL
I’d be honoured.
SKAARA
Will you becoming to my wedding alone?
Sam walks up.
O’NEILL
I assume Carter’s invited too?
SKAARA
Of course. Will you becoming together?
O’NEILL
As in?
CARTER
Friends going to a wedding.
O’NEILL
Yes, sure. Jonas?
Jack walks off and Sam and Skaara just smile.
ABYDOS
Teal’c and Tobay are waiting.
TEAL’C
Is there something you wish to ask me?
TOBAY
You are a friend of Daniel Jackson?
TEAL’C
Indeed I was.
TOBAY
Skaara says he is not dead. He is now
a God.
TEAL’C
A God he is not.
TOBAY
Is he not powerful?
TEAL’C
That remains unclear.
TOBAY
Daniel once brought freedom to my people
from the false God Ra. He has asked
us to fight; we will fight in his name.
Die for his cause if we must. Skaara
says Daniel will protect us, watch over
our families.
TEAL’C
I am unsure of what you have been promised.
Alkesh and Death Gliders can be seen in the distance.
TEAL’C
But if you are not prepared to die,
you should not be here.
They raise their weapons as the ships pass over them.
RA’S PYRAMID
Jonas is reading something.
O’NEILL
How you doing there, son? We don’t have
all day.
JONAS
I know. Believe me I know. But there’s
nothing. Just a lot of talk about the
power of Ra, the size of his domain.
O’NEILL
Big domain?
JONAS
There’s no mention of a secret chamber
where he keeps his most valuable possessions
not that I would expect that.
O’NEILL
Right.
ABYDOS
The gliders and alkesh are firing on the Abydonians. Teal’c and
the Abydonians are firing back with little success. Even Teal’c’s
rocket launcher is absorbed by the shields of the Alkesh and
the gliders are small enough to manoeuvre out of the way.
RA’S PYRAMID
TEAL’C
(Via radio) O’Neill, we are under attack!
Ground forces have landed. We will not
be able to hold them off for long.
O’NEILL
Roger that. You heard the man.
JONAS
I don’t know what to tell you. I mean
if Dr Jackson was here..
O’NEILL
Oh he’s here. He’s definitely here.
Trust me, he’s here. Son of a bitch.
Hey, where are you? We’re only doing
this because of you.
Daniel appears.
DANIEL
Jack, it’s here.
CARTER
Daniel.
DANIEL
Sam. Jonas.
JONAS
Dr Jackson.
The roof shakes.
O’NEILL
You hear that?
DANIEL
I can’t do anything about that, you
know.
O’NEILL
I don’t care. Do something or we walk.
Right now.
DANIEL
Remember that fine line we were talking
about?
O’NEILL
Cross it.
DANIEL
Okay. I always thought there might be
a secret chamber here. This section
talks about how Ra draws his power from
the sun.
TEAL’C
(Via radio) O’Neill, we cannot hold
our position.
O’NEILL
(Over Radio) Fall back to the pyramid.
You guys do your stuff, I’m gonna go
help Teal’c.
SKAARA
I will come with you.
They leave. Sam, Jonas and Daniel look at the wall.
ABYDOS
Teal’c is moving everyone back.
TEAL’C
Fall back. Fall back!
They fall back and a glider comes for them. Teal’c fires his
rocket launcher and the glider explodes as it hits the ground.
Two Abydonians fall but Teal’c keeps running.
RA’S PYRAMID
CARTER
Ah, can’t you just zip into the wall
and see if there’s something on the
other side?
DANIEL
It’s complicated.
JONAS
Some kind of trigger for a secret door.
Rays of the sun will reveal all. Rays
of the sun, there’s no sunlight. Think
any light will do?
DANIEL
It’s possible.
Jonas gets out a torch and shines it on the jewel in the wall.
CARTER
Maybe you need to focus it a little?
JONAS
Yeah.
Jonas gets out a magnifying glass.
DANIEL
Is that my stuff?
JONAS
You weren’t using it any more.
DANIEL
Yeah.
ABYDOS
Teal’c and the Abydonians have reached the pyramid as jaffa come
pouring over the hill.
Jack and Skaara meet Teal’c.
O’NEILL
How many?
TEAL’C
Many.
O’NEILL
Carter? (Over radio)
CARTER
Sir, we’re working on it.
O’NEILL
Work faster.
CARTER
Yes sir.
PYRAMID
JONAS
I thought we were on to something.
DANIEL
You are.
JONAS
It’s not working.
DANIEL
It’s red.
JONAS
What is?
DANIEL
The rays of the sun on the fresco (sp)
are red. Sam?
CARTER
Yeah. Jonas?
Sam focuses the laser sight on her P90 on the jewel and the door
opens.
JONAS
Sweet.
They go in and look around.
GATEROOM OF PYRAMID
Jaffa enter and are fired on. A chunk of rock is taken out near
Jack. The man in front of Skaara is killed. More jaffa ring into
the middle of the room. Most of the jaffa are taken out by Jack
but one manages to fire on Skaara who goes down. Teal’c provides
cover fire for Jack who goes to check on Skaara.
SECRET ROOM
Daniel is looking at a tablet.
CARTER
Daniel what is it?
DANIEL
I’m an Ancient.
CARTER
What?
DANIEL
Not me, but the Others like me. They’re
the Ancients.
JONAS
This is written in one of the oldest
dialects of the Ancients.
DANIEL
I mean I always suspected but I never
really knew for sure.
CARTER
What does it say?
DANIEL
It says the Ancients evolved from a
race of humans that lived long before
us. They were wiped out by a plague
that was sweeping across the galaxy.
Many learned to ascend, the rest died
out. I have to go.
CARTER
Where?
DANIEL
I’ll be back. Don’t lose that tablet;
it talks about a lost city that’s more
valuable than anything.
CARTER
Daniel?
Daniel turns into a glowy ball again.
PYRAMID GATEROOM
The Stargate engages.
O’NEILL
Teal’c!
Teal’c retreats towards him.
SECRET ROOM
Jonas and Sam are rummaging through everything.
JONAS
What if it’s not here?
CARTER
Maybe there’s a secret compartment?
JONAS
A secret compartment inside a secret
chamber?
CARTER
Why not?
JONAS
Why not?
Jonas picks up a metal object and starts tapping walls. He comes
across one that sounds hollow.
JONAS
Right here. I don’t see a latch or a
jewel like in the other door but there’s
got to be some way to open this.
CARTER
Yeah, stand back.
Sam fires on the wall with her P90.
Jonas retrieves the Eye of Ra and they leave the chamber. Jonas
picks up the tablet.
CARTER
(Over radio) Sir, we got it.
Jack, Teal’c and Skaara come down the steps to meet them.
O’NEILL
Too late.
TEAL’C
We cannot hold the Gateroom. Anubis
dialled the Stargate preventing our
escape.
O’NEILL
We got jaffa on our ass. Where’s that
Eye?
JONAS
Right here.
Jack gets some C4 out of his vest pocket.
JONAS
What are you going to do with that?
O’NEILL
I’m gonna see how much Anubis wants
that Eye in one piece.
The jaffa come down the steps and wait. Jack finishes attaching
the C4. Another jaffa comes down the steps.
HERAK
Surrender or die!
O’NEILL
What?
HERAK
Surrender or die!
O’NEILL
I was just gonna say the exact same
thing.
HERAK
O’Neill of SG1.
O’NEILL
Hey, how’re you doing? You’ll have to
forgive me, I’m terrible with names.
What..
A staff blast is fired.
O’NEILL
Jeez!
HERAK
I am Herak.
O’NEILL
Congratulations. Failing upwards I see.
HERAK
You have no choice.
O’NEILL
Actually I do. I’ve got the Eye and
about a pound of very powerful explosives
stuck to it. Give us clear access to
the Gate or I’ll blow it up.
HERAK
Yourself along with it?
O’NEILL
What’s your point?
HERAK
I will speak with my master.
O’NEILL
Yes, you do that. Don’t forget to tell
him you screwed up again.
Herak leaves.
JONAS
Is it really necessary to further antagonise
him?
O’NEILL
Yes.
CARTER
Would you really do it?
O’NEILL
Sure, why not?
TEAL’C
O’Neill. Skaara is in need of medical
attention.
SKAARA
I have failed you.
O’NEILL
Ah stop it.
ANUBIS’ SHIP
Herak walks in and bows.
HERAK
My Lord. The humans from Earth and the
one named O’Neill have found the Eye
of Ra. We have them trapped. But he
says if we do not grant them free passage
he will destroy the Eye.
ANUBIS
He will give you the Eye of Ra or I
will destroy Abydos.
HERAK
Yes my Lord.
Herak leaves.
DANIEL
You won’t touch Abydos.
ANUBIS
And how will you stop me?
DANIEL
I can. And I will if one more person
down there is hurt.
ANUBIS
You can do nothing but stand there and
utter empty threats because I know what
you are.
DANIEL
If you know what I am, you know very
well I can wipe you from existence.
ANUBIS
I know you who are Daniel Jackson, but
you know not who I am.
We see his face start to light up and his face appears. He is
an ascended being.
PYRAMID
Herak comes back.
HERAK
O’Neill, can you hear me?
O’NEILL
Yeah.
HERAK
Anubis commands that you turn over the
Eye of Ra immediately or he will destroy
all of Abydos.
O’NEILL
Tell him to go ahead. He’s not getting
the Eye.
Jonas looks at Jack.
O’NEILL
He’s bluffing.
JONAS
We don’t have much of a choice. If we
blow up the Eye he’s going to destroy
Abydos anyway,.
O’NEILL
He’s just as likely to attack after
we give it to him.
JONAS
Maybe not.
O’NEILL
He’s a Goa’uld.
SKAARA
O’Neill.
Jack goes to Skaara.
Skaara starts to talk in abydonian.
O’NEILL
What’s he say?
TEAL’C
He speaks of a bright light. Of giving
up. Of releasing something.
Skaara looks at Jack. His eyes close and he dies. He suddenly
turns into a bright light and ascends.
The jaffa outside look puzzled at the bright light. Jack looks
down at Skaara’s clothes.
ANUBIS’ SHIP
ANUBIS
With a wave of my hand, I will bombard
the surface. You can try and stop me
if you choose.
DANIEL
What makes you think I won’t?
ANUBIS
Your words mean nothing. Take action
if you dare.
Daniel walks towards the viewing screen where Goa’uld motherships
exit hyperspace.
DANIEL
Maybe I won’t have to.
Yu appears on the viewing screen.
YU
I command the collective forces of the
System Lords.
ANUBIS
You’ve finally managed to rally them
against me.
YU
You will hand over the Eye of Ra or
face destruction.
ANUBIS
I will consider your most generous offer.
Yu disappears.
DANIEL
You won’t survive that many motherships.
ANUBIS
They are not attacking because they
fear me.
DANIEL
Maybe I’ll tell them you don’t have
the Eye. And they can beat you if they
strike now.
ANUBIS
Do you know that for a fact?
DANIEL
Maybe I’ll deliver the Eye of Ra to
you. If you give me your word you won’t
harm the people of Abydos. Ever.
ANUBIS
So be it.
DANIEL
That’s a promise I’ll hold you to no
matter what.
PYRAMID
CARTER
Sir, you’re not considering shooting
our way out?
O’NEILL
No. Anubis must really want that thing
in one piece if his boys have held off
this long.
DANIEL
He does.
CARTER
Where were you?
DANIEL
Busy, busy.
O’NEILL
Hey, thanks for Skaara. I assume he’s
okay.
DANIEL
What are you talking about?
TEAL’C
He has ascended.
DANIEL
What?
O’NEILL
That wasn’t you?
Daniel closes his eyes.
DANIEL
Oma’s here watching me.
O’NEILL
And?
DANIEL
And I don’t care any more. Anubis is
one of us.
O’NEILL
What?
DANIEL
He’s partly in some bastardised way.
CARTER
Daniel, what are you talking about?
DANIEL
The Goa’uld Anubis used to be figured
out how to ascend.
TEAL’C
He was believed to have been dead for
quite some time.
DANIEL
The Others didn’t want him.
JONAS
That’s understandable.
DANIEL
They sent him back. At least they tried,
but not all the way.
CARTER
What is he now?
DANIEL
He’s still some form of energy, that
black mask is a shield, it’s keeping
his form intact. He’s stuck somewhere
between human existence and ascension.
TEAL’C
Why have the Others allowed him to remain
that way?
DANIEL
I don’t know. Maybe they couldn’t exile
him completely?
O’NEILL
Maybe they just don’t care?
DANIEL
Maybe you’re right. Either way he’s
still very powerful.
CARTER
It explains his mastery of Ancient technology.
O’NEILL
How’s that?
DANIEL
Jack, the Others are the Ancients. The
original creators of the Stargates.
You didn’t tell him?
CARTER
Uh, no.
Herak and his men move forward.
O’NEILL
All right look, just bottom line this
for me, will you?
DANIEL
There’s a fleet of System Lord Motherships
surrounding Anubis, I warned them about
the Eye and what it can do.
O’NEILL
Nice.
DANIEL
Turn it over.
O’NEILL
What?
DANIEL
I made a deal with Anubis, you turn
the Eye over, you go free and the people
of Abydos remain unharmed.
O’NEILL
You made a deal with Anubis?
DANIEL
I’ll make sure he keeps it. The Goa’uld
are going to fight it out over the Eye
and hopefully destroy each other in
the process but even if they don’t,
while they’re licking their wounds,
you’re gonna find the lost city of the
Ancients.
O’NEILL
The lost city?
DANIEL
Didn’t tell him about that either, huh?
CARTER
Daniel found a tablet talking about
a lost city.
DANIEL
Where there are powerful Ancient weapons
capable of giving you a big advantage
over Anubis.
O’NEILL
Do you know where it is?
DANIEL
No, but I’ll help you find it. Jack,
nothing will happen to the Abydonians,
the most important thing right now is
for you to get out of here with that
tablet. If Anubis gets his hands on
it and finds the lost city before you
do, it’s all over. He already has a
huge advantage over you because of what
the Others have done or rather failed
to do.
O’NEILL
You gonna kick his ass?
DANIEL
If I have to.
O’NEILL
Can you?
DANIEL
We’ll see. Nothing will happen to the
people of Abydos.
PYRAMID
The jaffa are still waiting.
O’NEILL
Coming out!
Jack walks up to Herak.
O’NEILL
I assume you know about the part where
you don’t kill us?
HERAK
As much as I would like to.
Jack hands over the Eye.
HERAK
Jaffa Kree!
The jaffa all leave.
O’NEILL
Well spank me rosy. Let’s book.
SG1 leave.
ANUBIS’ SHIP
Herak enters the bridge with the Eye of Ra.
HERAK
My Lord, the Eye of Ra.
Anubis gets up and takes it.
A weapon on the outside of the ship activates.
ANUBIS
The ships weapons are now fully powered.
Yu appears on the view screen.
YU
Your time is up.
ANUBIS
Of that you are gravely mistaken.
The ship fires on the other Motherships who fire back. There
are at least ten motherships, three of who explode. Anubis’ shields
absorb the blasts.
ABYDOS GATEROOM
SG1 have made it to the Gateroom.
JONAS
Sounds like a hell of a battle going
on up there.
We then see lots of clothes just lying on the floor.
ANUBIS’ SHIP
Herak is watching the ships outside explode.
HERAK
They are retreating.
ANUBIS
Yes.
HERAK
What now My Lord?
ANUBIS
Now I will destroy Abydos.
ABYDOS GATEROOM
Sam is dialling the Gate.
ANUBIS’ SHIP
Anubis raises his hand to activate the weapon.
DANIEL
Stop!
Herak fires on Daniel and it passes right through.
ANUBIS
Stop me, if you can.
Herak kneels behind them.
Daniel raises his hands and they glow.
ANUBIS
Strike me down. Do it now or I will
destroy Abydos.
Daniel raises his hands and directs the energy at Anubis. It
appears to be blown back as Anubis raises his hand to defend
himself.
DANIEL
No! Don’t do this.
Daniel is spirited away.
PYRAMID GATEROOM
Sam, Jonas and Teal’c step through the Gate. Jack is about to
go through.
ANUBIS’ SHIP
Herak looks frightened.
HERAK
You are indeed all powerful my Lord.
ANUBIS
What you just saw was not my doing.
However, this is.
He activates the weapon. It focuses on Abydos. A beam of energy
is directed at the pyramid.
PYRAMID
Jack is just about to step through the Gate. He turns and sees
what looks like electricity.
ABYDOS
The pyramid is blown up and the energy wave radiates outwards.
SGC GATEROOM
Jonas, Sam and Teal’c are waiting at the bottom of the ramp.
The wormhole fritzes.
JONAS
What was that?
Jack comes through and the iris closes. The room shakes as Jack
walks down the ramp.
JONAS
What just happened?
O’NEILL
Abydos was hit.
CARTER
You saw it?
O’NEILL
I felt it. Just before I came through.
Sam leaves the Gateroom.
CARTER
Sergeant, call up a full Gate diagnostic.
What have you got?
DAVIS
I’m working on it. A large burst of
energy was transmitted through the wormhole
just after Colonel O’Neill came through.
O’NEILL
Carter?
CARTER
We’re lucky they closed the iris when
they did Sir. A massive energy wave
followed you through the wormhole.
O’NEILL
Redial.
DAVIS
Yes sir.
HAMMOND
Welcome back SG1. What’s happening?
CARTER
Seems there was a large explosion on
the planet just after we left Sir.
HAMMOND
Is that possible?
O’NEILL
Unfortunately, Sir.
CARTER
We’re dialling Abydos now to see what
happened.
DAVIS
Chevron 6 encoded. Chevron 7 will not
lock.
HAMMOND
Briefing room.
O’NEILL
Yes sir.
BRIEFING ROOM
CARTER
The only thing we can assume is that
Anubis didn’t keep his deal with Daniel.
O’NEILL
That’s a shock, eh?
TEAL’C
And that Daniel Jackson was unable to
prevent Anubis from destroying Abydos.
HAMMOND
Which leaves Anubis in possession of
a powerful weapon that has given him
clear superiority over the System Lords.
O’NEILL
We don’t know any of that for sure,
Sir.
JONAS
What we do know, is that we have to
find the city that’s described on that
tablet.
HAMMOND
Can you translate this?
JONAS
Oh yeah. It will take some time but
Dr Jackson did offer his assistance.
CARTER
I’m not sure we can count on Daniel
for anything any more.
HAMMOND
Why not?
CARTER
Well Sir, he would have done everything
in his power to protect the people of
Abydos. If he was somehow prevented
from doing that then....
GATEROOM
The Gate is dialling.
DAVIS
Chevron 5 encoded. Major, if you don’t
mind me asking, how many times are we
going to dial Abydos before you give
up?
CARTER
Until a Tok’ra with a ship flies over
the planet and tells me there’s no one
left alive.
DAVIS
Chevron 6 encoded. Chevron 7 locked.
The wormhole engages.
HAMMOND’S OFFICE
Sam and Jack are there.
CARTER
The MALP shows the pyramid is intact.
No evident damage.
HAMMOND
What about the explosion?
CARTER
I don’t know Sir, I can’t explain it.
O’NEILL
I’d like to go Sir, make sure the people
are okay.
Hammond indicates they can.
Sam and Jack leave.
ABYDOS PYRAMID
SG1 step through. There’s no sign of any damage.
VILLAGE
SG1 come over an incline and see the village and all the people.
A couple of boys are playing football.
JONAS
I guess everybody’s all right.
Jack sees Skaara and walks over to him.
O’NEILL
Skaara.
SKAARA
O’Neill.
O’NEILL
What’s going on here?
SKAARA
Anubis destroyed the pyramid. Everyone
was killed in the blast.
O’NEILL
They don’t look dead to me. But then
neither do you.
SKAARA
Death is only the beginning of one’s
journey.
O’NEILL
That sounds familiar.
TEAL’C
What of Daniel Jackson?
SKAARA
I have not seen Daniel.
CARTER
Do you know if he’s okay?
SKAARA
I do not know. One named Oma did this.
O’NEILL
All of you?
SKAARA
I wish you well O’Neill. You will not
see me again. At least not for a while.
O’NEILL
Take care.
SKAARA
Do not fear. You will find your way.
A football rolls in front of Jack. He bends down to pick it up.
O’NEILL
What do you mean by that?
As he gets up all the people and tents are gone. Skaara takes
the ball off him.
SKAARA
The Chappa’ai will remain until you
leave.
They all turn around and see the Stargate in the desert, not
in the pyramid.
When they turn back Skaara is gone.
O’NEILL
Let’s go home.
They turn and walk towards the Stargate.
THE END
