STARGATE SG1

"REVELATIONS"
By
Joseph Mallozzi & Paul Mullie
DANIEL'S LAB
Sam is in there looking at his books. She then moves to his desk
and picks up his glasses. She then sees his journal and picks
it up. Hammond stands at the door.
HAMMOND
Major.
CARTER
Sir.
HAMMOND
I just wanted to inform you that Colonel
O'Neill has requested that SG1 remain
on active duty while we try to find
a replacement for Dr Jackson.
CARTER
So what are we supposed to do? Keep
working like nothing happened?
HAMMOND
I understand how you feel.
CARTER
With all due respect Sir, I don't even
understand how I feel. We didn't even
have a memorial service.
HAMMOND
We're not even really sure that he's
dead.
CARTER
And that's the problem. What are we
supposed to do, Sir? Wait and.. and
hope that he comes back or.. just move
on.
HAMMOND
When I was in Vietnam, I saw my best
friend shot down. I know he survived,
I saw his `chute open, radioed his position.
But I never found out what happened
to him. His body was never recovered,
the Vietnamese never admitted they took
him prisoner. For years, I kept thinking,
that some day he's just going to walk
through the door.
CARTER
So what did you do?
HAMMOND
I learned to live with it.
The klaxons go off.
PA
Unauthorized offworld activation.
The power goes off.
HAMMOND
What the hell's going on?
CARTER
Main power is down.
She goes to a phone.
CARTER
Phone's are down.
The emergency power comes on.
PA
General Hammond to the Gateroom, repeat
General Hammond to the Gateroom.
HAMMOND
Let's get up there.
He leaves and Sam replaces Daniel's journal.
GATEROOM
Sam and Hammond walk in.
HAMMOND
Stand down.
Freyr walks down the ramp.
CARTER
Freyr.
FREYR
Major Carter. General Hammond. I apologise
for our absence of late but our war
with the Replicators has reached a critical
stage.
CARTER
Well we might be able to help you with
that.
FREYR
Yes, we received your message.
Jack and Teal'c walk in.
FREYR
If, as you say, this android was responsible
for creating the first generation of
Replicators, it may well prove invaluable.
However, it is not the only reason I
have come. There has been an incident
with the Goa'uld.
O'NEILL
An incident?
FREYR
Commander Thor has been killed.
CARTER
Killed? How?
FREYR
The Goa'uld attacked a planet under
our protection and Commander Thor was
despatched with the only ship available.
We expected the Goa'uld to retreat once
we made our presence felt but they did
not. The Asgard ship was destroyed in
the ensuing battle.
TEAL'C
Is not Asgard military technology far
superior to that of the Goa'uld?
FREYR
Their new shields are more advanced
than we first believed and it appears
they have upgraded their weapons as
well. We can no longer be confident
of victory when dealing with superior
numbers.
O'NEILL
So in other words the protected planets
are no longer protected?
CARTER
Including Earth.
FREYR
Our ability to enforce the treaty in
this galaxy will depend greatly on the
outcome of our battle with the Replicators.
However in the meantime, we do have
another problem. An Asgard scientist
has been left stranded in the research
facility beneath the surface of the
planet in question. We would like you
to mount a rescue mission.
HAMMOND
Why us?
FREYR
We have no ships available and we understand
you have a Goa'uld cargo ship at your
disposal.
CARTER
Well it isn't exactly in perfect working
order. We managed to repair it with
the help of the Tok'ra but...
O'NEILL
We'll do it.
Everyone looks at him.
O'NEILL
It's what we do, isn't it?
FREYR
The research being conducted on this
planet is vital to the future of the
Asgard. We would be forever in your
debt.
CORRIDOR
Sam follows Jack down a corridor.
CARTER
Colonel. We need to talk.
O'NEILL
I don't want to hear it Carter.
CARTER
You can't just pretend this didn't happen.
O'NEILL
I'm not pretending anything. This is
the job. We lose people all the time.
CARTER
We're talking about Daniel.
O'NEILL
What do you want me to do? He's gone.
We've got work to do.
Jack walks off. Sam stops and turns round to go the other way.
HYPERSPACE
SG1 are en route to the Asgard protected planet.
Jack is sat in the back cleaning his gun. Sam and Teal'c are
sat up in the front.
TEAL'C
Are you not all right Major Carter?
CARTER
I'm fine.
TEAL'C
You continue to mourn the loss of Daniel
Jackson.
CARTER
Yeah, I do. Tell me I'm not the only
one.
TEAL'C
I will perform the proper rituals when
the opportunity presents itself. Until
that time, this mission must take priority.
CARTER
Please, Teal'c. Don't give me that `way
of the warrior' crap. I get enough of
that from Colonel O'Neill.
TEAL'C
Daniel Jackson has ascended to a higher
plane of existence. Many jaffa have
dedicated their lives to achieving such
a goal.
CARTER
So I'm supposed to celebrate?
TEAL'C
It is a great accomplishment.
CARTER
We were a team, Teal'c. No one can even
begin to understand what we went through
together, what we mean to each other.
So maybe Daniel has achieved something
of great cosmic significance, I don't
know. And to be honest with you, right
now, I don't really care. I'd rather
have him back.
TEAL'C
As would I.
CARGO SHIP FLYING THROUGH SPACE.
TEAL'C
We are approaching the Adara system.
Two motherships orbit the second planet.
Jack walks up.
CARTER
We won't be able to activate the cloak
until we come out of hyperspace. There'll
be a brief interval where they might
detect us.
O'NEILL
How brief?
CARTER
Just a few seconds. The odds of them
spotting us are pretty slim.
O'NEILL
How slim?
CARTER
Hardly worth mentioning, Sir.
O'NEILL
And yet, you did mention it.
CARTER
Yeah, I'm beginning to wish I hadn't.
They come out of hyperspace and cloak.
O'NEILL
Well at least they're not shooting at
us. That's good.
TEAL'C
We are approaching the upper atmosphere.
The cargo ship enters the atmosphere.
CARTER
It's pretty thick.
TEAL'C
There is considerable turbulence.
Teal'c activates the screen at the front on the ship. Jack holds
onto the console.
O'NEILL
You know, we should really consider
putting another chair back here. If
you think about it, it'd be much safer,
wouldn't it?
The cargo ship lands.
TEAL'C
We have arrived at the co-ordinates
given to us by Freyr.
O'NEILL
Nice view.
CARTER
This can't be right. The atmosphere
is over 80% carbon dioxide and the surface
temperature of 420 degrees Fahrenheit.
O'NEILL
Hot.
CARTER
Yeah.
TEAL'C
How are we to locate the Asgard facility?
Suddenly the three of them are beamed out.
ASGARD FACILITY
Sam, Jack and Teal'c reappear.
CARTER
Well that was easy.
They look round.
HEIMDALL
Ah, humans. Interesting.
Heimdall walks down a ramp waving. Jack waves back.
HEIMDALL
Greetings, I am Heimdall. I assume you
were sent by the Asgard high council.
O'NEILL
Not exactly. Colonel Jack O'Neill, Major
Carter and Teal'c.
He shakes hands with Heimdall.
HEIMDALL
I have heard much of your exploits on
behalf of the Asgard. Dr Jackson is
not with you?
O'NEILL
Uh, no.
HEIMDALL
In any case, it is a great pleasure
to meet you.
CARTER
Where are we exactly?
HAIMDALL
Several hundred metres beneath the surface
of the planet.
CARTER
Of course we'd have to be. The surface
is uninhabitable.
TEAL'C
The Goa'uld are unaware of your presence
here.
HEIMDALL
I have been monitoring their communications.
They know the laboratory is somewhere
on this planet but as yet, they have
been unable to pinpoint its location.
O'NEILL
Well, why don't we get out of here before
they find out?
HEIMDALL
I am afraid we cannot leave.
CARTER
Why not?
HEIMDALL
First we must rescue Thor.
CARTER
I thought Thor was dead?
HEIMDALL
He is not. However his life is in great
danger. He is a prisoner of the Goa'uld.
OSIRIS' SHIP
Thor is being held strapped to a table. Osiris walks in.
OSIRIS
Commander Thor. I apologise for the
accommodations but we weren't expecting
company.
THOR
You have committed an act of war against
the Asgard. The response will be swift
and decisive.
OSIRIS
As swift and decisive as your attempt
to defend this planet?
ASGARD FACILITY
HEIMDALL
After Thor's ship was destroyed, the
Goa'uld detected an escape pod. They
managed to retrieve it before it could
disappear into the atmosphere.
CARTER
How do you know Thor is still alive?
HEIMDALL
I am able to scan the interior of the
Goa'uld mother ship.
A screen appears behind SG1.
O'NEILL
Wow.
HEIMDALL
I have located Thor's bio signature
here.
O'NEILL
Why don't you just beam him out?
HEIMDALL
Although my sensors can penetrate the
Goa'uld shields, my transportation device
cannot.
CARTER
Can you detect Goa'uld lifesigns as
well?
HEIMDALL
I can.
The screen changes to show a red blob for a Goa'uld with Thor's
blue blob.
HEIMDALL
The red dot indicates the presence of
a symbiote.
CARTER
So it's either Goa'uld or a jaffa.
HEIMDALL
In all probability, Thor is being tortured
for information pertaining to Asgard
technology.
CARTER
With that kind of knowledge, the Goa'uld
could easily come through our Stargate
whenever they wanted. There wouldn't
be anything we could do about it.
OSIRIS' SHIP
Thor is still lying strapped to the table.
THOR
I've underestimated your strength. That
mistake will not be made again.
OSIRIS
Perhaps not. But next time we will have
an even greater advantage. We'll have
learned all your secrets.
THOR
I will never surrender my knowledge
to you.
OSIRIS
Not to me, no. Anubis himself has taken
an interest in this matter. He's on
his way here as we speak.
Osiris leaves.
ASGARD FACILITY
SG1 are watching the screen.
TEAL'C
The Goa'uld is leaving.
O'NEILL
Can you communicate with him?
HEIMDALL
Yes, I can.
OSIRIS' SHIP
Jack appears as a hologram to Thor.
O'NEILL
Thor. Thor, buddy.
Thor opens his eyes.
O'NEILL
Hey. How you doing?
THOR
O'Neill. I am surprised to see you.
O'NEILL
Yeah, we're down on the planet with..
THOR
Heimdall.
O'NEILL
Yeah, him. Working on a way to get you
out of here.
THOR
That would be unwise. You must take
Heimdall and his research materials
and leave immediately.
Scene flashes to SG1 and Heimdall's view of what's happening.
O'NEILL
What are you nuts? I'm not gonna leave
you behind.
THOR
More Goa'uld are coming. I have been
informed that Anubis will be conducting
my interrogation.
O'NEILL
All the more reason to get you out.
THOR
I will resist their attempts to probe
my mind. I will die before I give them
any information but the very survival
of the Asgard depends on Heimdall's
discoveries.
Sam sees red blobs moving to Thor's cell.
CARTER
Sir, you've got company, we're gonna
have to pull you out.
O'NEILL
All right, listen. I've got to go but
I'll be back.
Jack steps off the hologram pad and appears in the Asgard lab.
CARTER
How's he doing?
O'NEILL
Well he's fine for now. Except for the
fact that he wants us to leave him behind.
TEAL'C
For what reason?
O'NEILL
I wouldn't mind knowing that myself.
They look to Heimdall.
HEIMDALL
Thor is no doubt concerned that if we
delay, the materials in this laboratory
will fall into the hands of the Goa'uld.
CARTER
What exactly are you studying here?
HEIMDALL
I am conducting research into the genetic
history of the Asgard.
O'NEILL
Yeah, now see, that doesn't sound like
something worth dying for.
HEIMDALL
That is because you do not understand
the gravity of the situation.
O'NEILL
Feel free to enlighten us.
HEIMDALL
As a race, the Asgard reproduce exclusively
through a process of enhanced cellular
mitosis.
CARTER
Are you serious? You have no other means
of propagation?
HEIMDALL
No.
O'NEILL
Carter?
CARTER
They're clones, sir. All of them.
O'NEILL
Ah. Well that answers a few questions.
HEIMDALL
In fact, for nearly a thousand years,
we have been physically incapable of
achieving cell division through meiosis.
O'NEILL
Hmm?
CARTER
Sexual reproduction, Sir.
O'NEILL
Ah. A thousand years?
HEIMDALL
It is not something we wish to discuss
with other races.
O'NEILL
Guess I understand.
HEIMDALL
Through cloning we have achieved a measure
of immortality. As each Asgard's body
fails, his consciousness is transferred
into a newer, younger version of himself.
Unfortunately the lack of genetic diversity
has become a problem.
CARTER
It's like making a copy of a copy of
a copy. Eventually there's deterioration.
HEIMDALL
We created a process of controlled mutation
which has helped us avoid complete genetic
breakdown. But we are at the limits
of our technical capabilities. The truth
is, the Asgard are a dying race.
OSIRIS' SHIP
Osiris walks onto the peltak.
OSIRIS
Have you located the Asgard facility?
JAFFA
Not yet, my Lord.
OSIRIS
You waste time. Lord Yu is mounting
an offensive; our ships are needed elsewhere.
JAFFA
The planet's atmosphere generates much
electromagnetic interference.
OSIRIS
Then send a squadron of gliders. At
low altitude their sensors will be more
effective.
JAFFA
The atmosphere is too thick. It would
be extremely dangerous for the pilots.
OSIRIS
And how dangerous will it be when Lord
Anubis arrives and you have nothing
to offer but excuses?
JAFFA
I will despatch the squadron myself.
OSIRIS
Very wise.
ASGARD FACILITY
CARTER
If Anubis is gonna interrogate Thor,
he'll have to ring aboard the ship.
Once they lower the shields to let him
in, we can beam Thor out.
TEAL'C
The shields will not be lowered Major
Carter. They will merely adjust the
frequency to accept a rings transmission.
CARTER
Well then we can use the rings on the
cargo ship to beam up at the same time.
TEAL'C
Once Anubis is on board the frequency
will be readjusted. And we will be trapped.
O'NEILL
So we take out the shields from the
inside.
HEIMDALL
The shield generator room is located
here. You can use explosives to disable
the system and I will transport everyone
out including Thor.
TEAL'C
Once the rings have been activated,
the Goa'uld will be aware of our presence.
CARTER
Okay, one of us stays here and uses
the Asgard scanner to direct the others
away from any guards or patrols.
HEIMDALL
First I must complete my preparations
for departure.
O'NEILL
Okay, Carter you stay here, Teal'c and
I will go up.
HEIMDALL
I must remind you O'Neill that time
is of the essence. This laboratory will
not remain undetected indefinitely.
O'NEILL
Right.
Jack and Teal'c go to get ready.
SPACE
A Goa'uld mothership emerges from hyperspace.
OSIRIS' SHIP
JAFFA
Lord Anubis has arrived.
ASGARD FACILITY
Sam is at the control panel. Heimdall hands her a crystal that
she attaches to her jacket.
CARTER
Sir, we've found a ring room that's
clear. Stand by.
CARGO SHIP RINGS
O'NEILL
Roger that.
Teal'c pushes the buttons to activate the rings.
ASGARD FACILITY
HEIMDALL
A transporter ring has been activated.
CARTER
Now Sir.
CARGO SHIP RINGS
Teal'c activates the rings and he and Jack ring up to the ship.
ASGARD FACILITY
Sam watches the transport.
OSIRIS' SHIP
Jack and Teal'c ring in.
Teal'c opens the doors and they move out.
ASGARD FACILITY
Sam watches Jack and Teal'c on the Asgard scanners. Jack is green
and Teal'c is red.
CARTER
Monitoring your progress Sir.
OSIRIS' SHIP PELTAK
JAFFA
There's been an unauthorised transport
onto the ship.
OSIRIS
Intruders?
JAFFA
The signal appears to have come from
the planet. I am unable to determine
the specific co ordinates.
OSIRIS
Organise a security detail. Maximum
containment. I want them found.
OSIRIS SHIP CORRIDOR.
Jack and Teal'c move down the corridor.
ASGARD FACILITY
CARTER
Proceed to the end of the corridor and
take a right.
OSIRIS' SHIP CORRIDOR
Jack and Teal'c move to the end of the corridor.
CARTER
Hold up Sir, there's a large party headed
your way.
O'NEILL
Which way? Should we double back? What?
CARTER
No Sir. There's a corridor up ahead
on your left. You should be able to
duck in there.
Jack and Teal'c move off as we see some jaffa come their way.
A hooded figure is among them. They start moving again.
ASGARD FACILITY
CARTER
They're almost there.
The screen shows more red blobs.
CARTER
Uh oh. Sir we've got a problem. There
are several jaffa patrols bearing down
on your position.
OSIRIS' SHIP CORRIDOR
O'NEILL
Where? Which direction?
CARTER
They're coming at you from all directions,
sir. Stand by.
ASGARD FACILITY
Sam is looking at the screen seeing lots of red blobs.
CARTER
There's no way out.
HEIMDALL
Perhaps a diversionary tactic would
be in order?
OSIRIS' SHIP CORRIDOR
Jack and Teal'c are waiting for Sam.
O'NEILL
Carter? Dammit.
They move off in one direction as a door rises to reveal jaffa.
They walk down the corridor towards Jack and Teal'c.
CARTER
Hey guys! What's happening?!
The jaffa turn and fire on Sam but the shots pass through her.
She's a hologram. The diversion works and Jack and Teal'c have
the element of surprise to fire on the jaffa. The jaffa are downed
and Jack and Teal'c walk up to Sam.
O'NEILL
Nice.
Sam nods and looks behind.
CARTER
Ah, Heimdall says the way ahead is clear.
O'NEILL
Let's move out.
They walk up to Sam and walk through her, Jack swatting his hand
through Sam who looks bemused.
THOR'S CELL
The door opens and Anubis walks in.
ANUBIS
You are the one they call Thor. I am
Anubis.
THOR
As I have told your Lieutenant, I will
reveal nothing to you.
Anubis holds up a round device with spikes on it.
ANUBIS
This device will be implanted into your
brain, it will form a link between your
mind and the ship's computer. Your knowledge
will simply be downloaded into our memory
banks. You will no doubt resist and
you will no doubt fail.
THOR
The Goa'uld possess no such technology.
Anubis looks up and we see where his face should be is some kind
of black sludge.
ANUBIS
I think you will find many things have
changed since my return.
Anubis leaves.
OSIRIS' SHIP PELTAK
A jaffa walks in.
JAFFA
The intruders have breached our security
perimeter.
OSIRIS
How?
JAFFA
One of our patrols was ambushed.
OSIRIS
Seal the lower decks and divert coolant
from the hyperdrive into the ventilation
system.
JAFFA
The gas is toxic.
OSIRIS
Only with prolonged exposure.
JAFFA
Shall I evacuate the engine room?
OSIRIS
The intruders may be monitoring our
communications. We cannot afford to
give them a warning.
JAFFA
But the engines will overheat and the
entire compartment will be flooded with
radiation. Many jaffa will die.
OSIRIS
And they will be greatly honoured in
the afterlife.
The jaffa looks at another jaffa and carries out the order.
OSIRIS' SHIP CORRIDOR
Jack and Teal'c come to a door.
O'NEILL
Carter?
Sam appears as a hologram.
CARTER
This is it, Sir. The shield generator
room is just on the other side of that
door. There are six jaffa inside.
O'NEILL
Only six?
There is the sound of gas and Teal'c suddenly topples over. Jack
follows him to the floor.
CARTER
Colonel! Teal'c!
OSIRIS SHIP ENGINE ROOM
Many jaffa collapse.
OSIRIS SHIP CORRIDOR
CARTER
Colonel!
ASGARD FACILITY
CARTER
Are you sure they're not injured?
HEIMDALL
Their signals remain strong. They appear
to have been taken to some kind of holding
cell.
CARTER
Well we've got to get them out of there.
HEIMDALL
How?
CARTER
I'm not sure yet.
HEIMDALL
In the meantime we must do all we can
to keep the research materials in this
laboratory from falling into Goa'uld
hands.
CARTER
What exactly are we talking about here?
Some DNA samples?
HEIMDALL
Not exactly.
Heimdall goes to the console and lowers a stasis pod with a person
that is a cross between an Asgard and human.
CARTER
What is it?
HEIMDALL
That is one of my ancestors. Thirty
thousand years ago a ship was launched
from the Asgard homeworld, its crew
placed in suspended animation. There
was a failure on the navigational system
and the ship was lost. Through the millenia
it drifted across the empty expanse
between our galaxies before it arrived
here. We discovered it six months ago.
CARTER
And this is one of its original crew?
HEIMDALL
The only one that was perfectly preserved.
He is from a time before our program
of genetic manipulation became irreversible.
CARTER
So that's why he's so important. You're
hoping his physiology can give you clues
to stave off your own genetic degredation.
HEIMDALL
We kept the laboratory in this galaxy
to avoid the threat of the Replicators.
Now we can no longer afford to wait.
It is only a matter of time before the
Goa'uld pinpoint our location.
Heimdall beams them up to the cargo ship.
HEIMDALL
I will require your assistance to adapt
the stasis pods in the cargo ship's
power supply
CARTER
Right. When we're done I want you to
beam me back to the lab. I'm not ready
to give up on Colonel O'Neill and Teal'c
just yet.
OSIRIS' SHIP CELL
Jack is lying on a bench and Teal'c is looking out of the door.
O'NEILL
Can't believe they took my watch.
TEAL'C
Major Carter will soon have no choice
but to leave with Heimdall.
O'NEILL
If she's smart, she's already gone.
TEAL'C
In which case our chances of escape
are negligible.
O'NEILL
Oh, I don't know. All we've gotta do
is bust out of here, take out every
jaffa between here and the peltak, commandeer
the ship and fly on home.
TEAL'C
I stand corrected.
Thor's voice suddenly comes out of nowhere.
THOR
O'Neill.
O'NEILL
Thor? That you? Where are you?
THOR
I am still in my cell. However my mind
has been linked with the ship's computer.
And I am using the internal communication
system to synthesise my voice.
O'NEILL
Okay.
THOR
The Goa'uld are attempting to download
the information stored in my pre-frontal
cortex. It is only a matter of time
before they break through my mental
defences.
O'NEILL
Yeah, well, love to help you but we've
got our own problems here.
THOR
I am aware of your situation. I believe
I may be able to rewrite some minor
subroutines in the security protocol.
TEAL'C
To what end?
The door opens.
O'NEILL
Sweet.
THOR
I am growing weak. Further communication
will be impossible.
O'NEILL
Hang tight. We'll get you out.
Jack and Teal'c leave the cell and move off down the corridor.
Sam the hologram appears behind them.
CARTER
Colonel.
O'NEILL
Still with us, huh?
CARTER
Yes Sir. Heimdall's got the cargo ship
prepped and ready to go. He can remote
access his transportation device and
beam us straight there but we still
need you to get those shields offline.
O'NEILL
Yeah, well they took our C4. So we won't
be blowing any stuff up.
CARTER
We'd have to find a control relay and
pull the crystals. It will only take
them a few seconds to switch to backups
but that should be all we need.
O'NEILL
Right. Which way?
CARTER
I'm going to have to step off the holopad
and check the ships schematics. Try
to stay out of sight, I'll be back as
soon as I can.
She steps off the pad.
OSIRIS SHIP PELTAK
A jaffa appears on the viewscreen.
OSIRIS
Report.
JAFFA3
The battle with Lord Yu does not go
well. We request reinforcements.
OSIRIS
That stubborn old man simply refuses
to die. Despatch the other ships.
Two motherships move off.
JAFFA
Lord Osiris. One of our gliders has
detected an energy signature located
beneath the planet's surface.
OSIRIS
Do we have specific co ordinates?
JAFFA
We do. But there is no way in.
OSIRIS
Then we'll just have to make our own
way won't we?
ASGARD FACILITY
Sam is looking at the ships schematics.
HEIMDALL
Major Carter, what's your situation?
CARTER
Colonel O'Neill and Teal'c are out of
their cell. We're working on another
way to get the shields offline.
The facility suddenly shakes.
HEIMDALL
What was that?
CARTER
I think the Goa'uld have made my position.
HEIMDALL
You should leave immediately.
CARTER
Just a few more minutes.
OSIRIS SHIP CORRIDOR
Jack and Teal'c are waiting.
O'NEILL
Come on Carter.
Sam appears.
CARTER
I've got it, Sir. Go straight down this
corridor and up two levels, I'll meet
you there.
O'NEILL
Okay.
ASGARD FACILITY
Sam comes off the holopad and moves to the console to move some
crystals. She moves back on.
OSIRIS' SHIP CORRIDOR
Jack and Teal'c walk down a corridor and see Sam at the end of
the corridor.
O'NEILL
Carter.
CARTER
There should be an access panel somewhere
along here.
O'NEILL
Okay, next time, I'm the hologram.
They move to the panel and Teal'c pulls the crystals out.
CARTER
Okay; now we just have to pick the right
crystal.
O'NEILL
Which one?
Sam flickers then turns.
O'NEILL
Carter?
CARTER
I thought I heard something. There's
someone in here.
Suddenly Sam is zatted and collapses, disappearing.
ASGARD FACILITY
Osiris comes into the room and looks at Sam on the floor.
OSIRIS' SHIP CORRIDOR
Some jaffa come down a corridor and Jack kicks one in the face.
Teal'c disposes of two and Jack knocks out the last one. They
pick up zat guns and staff weapons. Jack zats the jaffa once.
ASGARD FACILITY
Sam is picked up before Osiris.
OSIRIS
Major Carter.
CARTER
Osiris.
OSIRIS
We have Colonel O'Neill and the shol'va.
So that just leaves Dr Jackson. Where
is here?
CARTER
Forget it.
Osiris starts to ribbon Sam.
OSIRIS' SHIP CORRIDOR.
Jack and Teal'c look at the crystals.
TEAL'C
Perhaps we should take them all.
O'NEILL
Here's a thought.
Jack takes a step back and fires on the crystals with a staff
weapon.
OSIRIS' SHIP PELTAK
Anubis is sitting on the throne.
JAFFA
Shields are down. Controls are offline.
ANUBIS
Repair them.
ASGARD FACILITY
Osiris is still ribboning Sam.
OSIRIS
Once more. Where is Dr Jackson?
CARTER
He's dead.
OSIRIS
You're lying.
CARTER
Go to hell.
Osiris raises the ribbon device again and Sam is transported
out by Heimdall.
OSIRIS' SHIP CORRIDOR
Jack and Teal'c are transported out too.
CARGO SHIP
Jack, Sam and Teal'c appear in the cargo ship and Teal'c catches
Sam. Thor appears aswell.
O'NEILL
Get us out of here.
HEIMDALL
Well done O'Neill.
O'NEILL
Thanks. Thor, buddy.
Thor opens his eyes.
THOR
O'Neill. You cannot take me with you.
O'NEILL
Why not?
THOR
The link between myself and the Goa'uld
ship has not been severed. They will
be able to track our position. You must
leave me behind.
O'NEILL
All right, that doesn't work for me.
That's not an option for me. Okay?
OSIRIS' SHIP PELTAK
JAFFA
Lord Anubis. The Asgard prisoner has
gone.
ANUBIS
He will not get far.
A jaffa leaves the room.
CARGO SHIP
Teal'c is flying the ship up through the atmosphere.
CARTER
We've cleared the atmosphere. Bringing
up the hyperdrive.
The ship is fired upon.
TEAL'C
Hyperdrive is offline. Cloak is failing.
The mothership continues firing.
TEAL'C
Cloak is down. We have lost our shields.
We cannot sustain another hit.
CARTER
Sir, we're receiving a transmission.
ANUBIS
Your ship is defenceless. You cannot
escape. Surrender now.
O'NEILL
Any ideas?
HEIMDALL
We cannot risk capture. We must destroy
the ship ourselves.
O'NEILL
Any good ideas?
Suddenly a hyperspace window appears and three Asgard ships appear.
CARTER
We've got company. Three Asgard ships.
Sir, I'm picking up a transmission to
the Goa'uld ship.
FREYR
This is Freyr of the Asgard. The vessels
you face are far superior to the one
you attacked. Challenge us at your own
peril.
Osiris/Anubis' ship moves off.
CARTER
The mothership's retreating. It's over.
O'NEILL
That's it?
SGC BRIEFING ROOM.
Sam, Jack, Teal'c and Hammond are sat around the table.
CARTER
Their examination of the android must
have yielded some positive results.
Because it looks like the Asgard have
finally gained the upper hand against
the Replicators.
O'NEILL
What about Thor?
CARTER
They managed to remove the device from
his brain but it may have been too late.
Apparently he's lapsed into a coma.
If they knew more about how the device
works they might be able to help him.
They're studying it towards that end.
Unfortunately it's unlike anything they've
ever encountered before.
TEAL'C
It is apparent that Anubis has gained
access to technology previously unknown
to the Goa'uld.
HAMMOND
Which would explain his rapid rise to
power.
CARTER
Yes sir.
HAMMOND
All right. You're dismissed.
SGC CORRIDOR
Jack and Teal'c walk down a corridor in casual clothes.
O'NEILL
We're not that much of a nuisance just
yet.
TEAL'C
Of that I am not so sure.
They meet Sam and Hammond at the elevator.
CARTER
Hey.
O'NEILL
Hey.
CARTER
Heading home?
O'NEILL
Actually Teal'c and I were thinking
of stopping off for a bite to eat. Interested?
CARTER
Sounds good.
O'NEILL
General?
HAMMOND
You three go ahead, I've still got some
work to do.
Suddenly Sam's hair is ruffled by a gust of wind.
CARTER
What was that?
TEAL'C
Perhaps a malfunction in the ventilation
system?
O'NEILL
Yeah, that's probably it.
CARTER
Bye sir, have a good night.
Hammond walks off past Martin Wood and Sergeant Siler.
Sam walks into the elevator and Teal'c follows. Another gust
of wind ruffles Jack's hair and he turns into the elevator smiling.
