STARGATE SG1
Episode 515
"SUMMIT"
By
Joseph Mallozzi & Paul Mullie
GATEROOM
TECH DAVIS
Unauthorised off world activation.
The gate engages.
CONTROL ROOM
Hammond, Teal'c and Sam are there. Jack and Daniel walk in.
TECH DAVIS
Receiving IDC transmission, sir. It's
the Tok'ra.
HAMMOND
Open the iris.
O'NEILL
Oh, here we go.
They all walk down to the Gateroom.
The Gate shuts off and we see someone walking down the ramp.
HAMMOND
Ren-al.
REN-AL
General Hammond.
HAMMOND
This is SG1.
REN-AL
I am familiar with all your exploits.
(To Sam) Your father Jacob sends his
regards.
CARTER
How is he?
REN-AL
On a mission at the moment, which is
the reason I am here. There is a serious
situation developing regarding the System
Lords.
HAMMOND
Briefing room.
Hammond escorts Ren-al to the briefing room. Jack and Daniel
are left.
O'NEILL
It's always suicide mission this, save
the planet that. No one ever just stops
by to say Hi any more.
BRIEFING ROOM
Ren-al is standing up. SG1 and Hammond are sat around the table.
REN-AL
The deaths of Cronus and Apophis created
a power vacuum that the remaining System
Lords have been trying to exploit. Over
the past several months they have suffered
heavy losses and expended an enormous
amount of resources fighting amongst
themselves.
O'NEILL
Let the good times roll.
REN-AL
Unfortunately the good times may be
coming to an end. They've declared a
truce. And now it looks as if they are
going to have a meeting to discuss the
establishment of a new order.
HAMMOND
So you want to stop them?
REN-AL
Quite the opposite actually. We want
them to meet. It'll give us the rare
opportunity to strike against all of
them at once.
CARTER
You're talking about taking out the
entire Goa'uld leadership?
REN-AL
We are.
O'NEILL
Welcome to the dark side.
REN-AL
This has always been part of our long-term
plan. We just weren't quite prepared
for the opportunity to present itself
so quickly.
DANIEL
Where exactly is this meeting taking
place?
REN-AL
A space station in the Hasara system.
It is considered neutral territory.
Security will be tight, no weapons will
be permitted on board and access will
be by cargo ship only.
O'NEILL
Defences?
REN-AL
Inpenetrable.
TEAL'C
Could we possibly gain entrance on one
of the cargo ships?
REN-AL
They'll be scanned on their approach
to the station.
O'NEILL
Okay. Let's hear it.
REN-AL
Every System Lord in attendance will
be permitted to bring one human slave.
CARTER
And you want one of us to do it.
REN-AL
Specifically we need someone who speaks
fluent Goa'uld.
Everyone looks at Teal'c.
REN-AL
Someone who is not Jaffa.
Everyone turns to look at Daniel who looks nervously around.
REN-AL
If you agree to participate, we ask
that you come to our base on Revanna
tomorrow. Jacob will be there, he will
tell you all you need to know. It is
up to you Dr Jackson.
DANIEL'S LAB
Daniel is reading some sheets. Teal'c walks in.
TEAL'C
Daniel Jackson?
DANIEL
Yeah?
TEAL'C
Have you considered the Tok'ra proposal?
DANIEL
Yep.
TEAL'C
If successful, it would deal the Goa'uld
a mortal blow.
DANIEL
Yeah. I realise what's at stake.
TEAL'C
Daniel Jackson, you have stated many
times that in circumstances such as
this, you would avoid using such action
if given a better option.
DANIEL
Right. You think there's a better way
of overthrowing the Goa'uld?
TEAL'C
I currently have no plan that would
accomplish as much as the one put forth
by the Tok'ra.
DANIEL
That's why I'm gonna do it.
GATEROOM
SG16 are already there. SG1 walk in.
MANSFIELD
Ten hut!
O'NEILL
At ease. Major.
MANSFIELD
Colonel.
O'NEILL
I see you drew the short straw.
CARTER
Lieutenant Elliot. Finally got your
first assignment.
ELLIOT
Yes ma'am. Be nice to see a little action
for a change.
O'NEILL
It's just your basic off world orientation,
Lieutenant. There is no action.
ELLIOT
Maybe not sir, but I am looking forward
to meeting the Tok'ra.
O'NEILL
You'll get over it.
They all walk up the ramp.
REVANNA
Jacob and Aldwin walk up to the Gate as SG1 and SG16 come through.
JACOB
Welcome to Revanna.
CARTER
Hi Dad.
JACOB
It's good to see you Sam. Jack, how
are you?
O'NEILL
Kinda curious.
He waves his hand in a `just tell me what the heck is going on'
motion.
JACOB
Some of you know Aldwin. He'll be conducting
the orientation for your new officers.
ALDWIN
We'll begin with a tour of the facilities.
After that I have prepared a lecture
on the development of Tok'ra insurgency
techniques since the collapse of the
second Goa'uld dynasty.
O'NEILL
I take it all back Lieutenant. This
could be hot.
JACOB
Come.
Jacob puts his arm out to escort Sam.
TOK'RA ROOM
Jack, Sam, Daniel, Teal'c and Jacob are sat around the table.
DANIEL
So how're you gonna get me in?
JACOB
Yu will be among the System Lords attending
the meeting.
CARTER
I thought you said he'd be going in
as a slave?
JACOB
The System Lord Yu.
CARTER
Little joke there.
She makes a `small' gesture.
O'NEILL
Funny.
DANIEL
Yu knows my face, he'll recognise me.
Ren-al walks in.
REN-AL
He will not.
JACOB
Ren-al and her team have been working
on a modified version of the chemical
SG-1 obtained from the Reeyall.
REN-AL
If you can get close enough to inject
him, you will be able to convince him
that you are, in fact, his most trusted
Lotar.
O'NEILL
His what?
TEAL'C
Lotar is the highest rank amongst the
human slaves of the System Lords.
JACOB
They're like personal attendants. It's
considered to be a position of great
honour. I spent the last couple of months
establishing myself as a minor Goa'uld
in Yu's service. I'll be able to get
Daniel on board his mothership and deal
with the loose ends.
CARTER
What if Nirrti shows up?
JACOB
Not much chance of that, she's still
a renegade. And persona non grata among
the System Lords. None of the other
remaining System Lords have seen Danny's
face.
DANIEL
Assuming I make it on to the space station,
what happens next?
REN-AL
You will wait until all the System Lords
have arrived and then you will use this.
These two liquids mixed together form
the most virulent poison. Press the
button to open the valve between the
two containers. The liquid will immediately
be vaporised, within seconds the pressure
will break the seal on the container
and the gas will be released.
DANIEL
Am I supposed to hold my breath?
REN-AL
The poison is only deadly to symbiotes.
CARTER
Isn't that a little dangerous?
JACOB
More than you know. There's enough material
in that vial to kill every Tok'ra on
this base twice over.
REN-AL
That is why this formula is our most
closely guarded secret.
DANIEL
And it doesn't kill the host?
REN-AL
Not the chemical itself, but as you
know, the dying symbiote releases it's
own toxin which is just as deadly.
JACOB
Daniel, the human host of a System Lord
has been through the sarcophagus countless
times. We know the toll that takes,
they're hundreds, sometimes thousands
of years old. Never mind the psychological
damage they suffered, physically, without
the Goa'uld sustaining them, they die
anyway.
DANIEL
So we're doing them a favour?
JACOB
In many ways, yes.
O'NEILL
How many targets?
JACOB
There'll be seven System Lords at the
meeting. That's all the major players.
If we pull this off, the Goa'uld may
never recover.
O'NEILL
What can we do?
JACOB
Wait here. I'll communicate when the
mission has been accomplished.
TOK'RA TUNNELS.
Jack runs after Jacob.
O'NEILL
Jacob. Jacob, wait up!
Jack shoves a Tok'ra out of his way.
O'NEILL
Why do I get the feeling there's something
you're not telling us?
JACOB
Oh Jack.
O'NEILL
Oh come one. You're the one who's always
saying that every time we knock off
one of these System Lords a worse one
shows up. Why should this be any different?
JACOB
It is true that others would eventually
rise up but by taking them all out at
once. We'll create a power vacuum that
will lead to a massive galaxy wide war
as the remaining Goa'uld jockey for
position. That will last long enough
for us to make a final decisive move.
O'NEILL
Which is?
JACOB
A wide scale attack on the entire Goa'uld
population using the symbiote poison.
We're gonna wipe them out, Jack. All
of them.
Jacob walks off.
ZIPACNA'S SHIP
OSIRIS
Why have I been enlisted for this task?
ZIPACNA
Politics have always been one of your
greater skills.
OSIRIS
And am I to go alone?
ZIPACNA
I have my own mission upon which I must
embark. Apparently the Tok'ra have developed
a formidable new weapon.
OSIRIS
How do you know?
ZIPACNA
I captured a Tok'ra spy in my midst.
OSIRIS
I doubt very much a Tok'ra would reveal
this information. No matter how you
tortured him.
ZIPACNA
You are correct. But Anubis has methods
that would impress you.
OSIRIS
What are you going to do?
ZIPACNA
I am going to take this weapon from
the Tok'ra and destroy them.
Zipacna walks off.
JACOB'S TELTAK
Daniel is putting contact lenses in and Jacob is dressing as
a Goa'uld.
DANIEL
So why do the System Lords need human
attendants?
JACOB
Well the Jaffa serve as strictly military
function. Besides if the host of a System
Lord is ever injured beyond a symbiotes
capacity to heal, it can be pretty useful
to have a human close at hand.
DANIEL
Well let's hope it doesn't come to that.
JACOB
Are you clear on all the backgrounds
of the System Lords?
DANIEL
Oh yeah, I'm fine.
JACOB
Good, we'll be at Yu's home world in
a little over an hour.
Jacob turns away then turns back.
JACOB
Are you all right Daniel?
DANIEL
Oh yeah, I'm fine.
JACOB
Listen, if you're not 100% committed
to this mission, I need to know.
DANIEL
I just think some of your details are
a little...sketchy.
JACOB
Like what?
DANIEL
We're gonna use poison to wipe out the
Goa'uld, right?
JACOB
Eventually.
DANIEL
What about the Jaffa?
JACOB
Well that's still a bit of a wrinkle.
Unless we can find a way to reverse
their biological dependency on immature
symbiotes.... They'll all die as well.
DANIEL
A bit of a wrinkle.
JACOB
Danny, the Goa'uld have been spreading
like a plague across the galaxy for
thousands of years. Now for the first
time they're showing zero population
growth. We're not sure why. But we intend
to take advantage of the situation.
We may never get a chance like this
again. Are we good to go?
DANIEL
Yep.
TOK'RA TUNNELS
Aldwin is leading SG16 around the tunnels.
ALDWIN
As you know, when the Tok'ra arrive
on a new planet it is customary to move
underground as quickly as possible.
ELLIOT
And you actually grow these tunnels
from crystals?
ALDWIN
That is correct. Individual crystals
are programmed with the specific layout
of a given passageway allowing us to
structure the tunnel system as we see
fit.
MANSFIELD
What about ventilation shafts?
ALDWIN
There are none. If we tunnel through
suitable rock such as calcium carbonate
as we have done here, oxygen is produced
as a by- product. This gives us enough
time to enter the tunnels and set up
our life support systems.
Jack walks up.
MANSFIELD
Colonel.
O'NEILL
Gentlemen. How goes the orientation?
ELLIOT
It's very interesting, Sir, just as
you predicted.
ALDWIN
Are you interested in Tok'ra engineering?
O'NEILL
Oh, interested doesn't quite describe
how I truly feel.
ALDWIN
You're welcome to join us.
O'NEILL
Thank you Aldwin, but I have to go help
Teal'c...wait for Daniel. Excuse me.
Jack walks off.
JACOB'S TELTAK
JACOB
I can get you into Yu's quarters. Your
job is to get close enough to use this.
Jacob hands Daniel a box.
JACOB
All you have to do is prick him. The
effect will be immediate. He will believe
you to be his loyal slave, Jarren.
DANIEL
Jarren?
JACOB
Just don't jab yourself with it.
DANIEL
Why?
JACOB
Actually I don't know exactly. That
in itself should scare you.
TOK'RA LAB
Sam and Ren-al walk in.
REN-AL
As you know Major, we kept the body
in stasis for several months as we tried
to find a way to repair the damage.
But in the end, we were unsuccessful.
All that is left of Martouf, now lives
on in Lantash.
CARTER
What's its condition.
REN-AL
The symbiote is still recuperating but
the search is already on to find a new
host.
CARTER
I wanna see the research.
REN-AL
I'm sorry Major but all information
pertaining to zatarc technology..
CARTER
..can only be released on the authority
of the council. I know. They've been
stonewalling me for months.
REN-AL
I assure you, Martouf was in no pain.
CARTER
That's not the problem.
REN-AL
What then?
CARTER
If the symbiote was still alive when
Martouf was taken out of stasis, wasn't
there a chance it could have healed
his injuries?
REN-AL
The possibility was remote.
CARTER
How remote?
REN-AL
The host was too weak. In all likelihood
the symbiote would have died trying
to repair the damage.
CARTER
You don't know that for sure.
REN-AL
Well we had to make a choice.
CARTER
And naturally you chose the symbiote.
REN-AL
Your bias towards the host is only natural.
Surely it is better for one to live
than for both to die?
CARTER
Isn't this really about your zatarc
research?
REN-AL
I don't understand.
CARTER
If Martouf had lived you wouldn't have
had the chance to examine his brain
tissue. You wouldn't have learned anything.
REN-AL
Would you really have preferred his
sacrifice to have been for nothing?
CARTER
I would have preferred another way.
REN-AL
You knew Martouf well?
CARTER
Yes.
REN-AL
Knowing him as you did, what choice
do you think he would have made?
Sam doesn't say anything.
REN-AL
Martouf is not entirely gone, Major.
His thoughts and his memories live on
in Lantash
YU'S PALACE
Jarren is making a pot of tea when Jacob/Selmak walk in.
SELMAK
Jarren.
JARREN
My Lord does not wish to be disturbed
at this time.
Daniel zats him.
DANIEL
You know, I don't look a thing like
this guy.
JACOB
Well luckily for this to work you don't
have to. You'll be fine. Just remember
to pour from the right.
Jacob drags Jarren off and Daniel takes the tray in.
Yu is not there so Daniel puts the tray down. Yu walks in behind
him.
YU
Kel shak Jarren.
Daniel adjusts the ring. Yu walks up behind him and puts his
hand on his shoulder.
YU
Ona kree! Onak!
Daniel turns and puts his hand on Yu's.
DANIEL
Nistra Jarren.
He lowers his hand and bows down.
DANIEL
I am your loyal servant Jarren.
YU
Rise. I will have my tea.
TOK'RA TUNNELS
Alarms are going off. Jack and Teal'c meet Sam and Ren-al.
O'NEILL
What's going on?
REN-AL
We've received a transmission. Our sensors
on the surface have detected a fleet
of motherships bound for Revanna. We
must leave immediately.
They meet Aldwin.
ALDWIN
An incoming wormhole is blocking our
escape through the Stargate.
CARTER
The Goa'uld can only sustain a wormhole
for 38 minutes.
REN-AL
The ships will be here before then.
ALDWIN
There is no other escape.
YU'S TELTAK APPROACHING THE SPACE STATION
MAN
Identify yourselves.
DANIEL
I represent the Jade Emperor, the exalted
Lord Yu Wang Shang Ti.
MAN
Two life signs scanned. No weapons detected.
Lowering shields.
YU
Our fellow System Lords are not to be
trusted. Neither are their slaves.
DANIEL
Understood my Lord.
The ship docks.
TOK'RA TUNNELS
CARTER
Do you have any ships available for
evacuation?
REN-AL
A few un-armed cargo ships but they're
with operatives on other missions.
ALDWIN
We have begun making new tunnels.
O'NEILL
What good is that gonna do?
ALDWIN
Spread out the risk of getting hit by
an air attack. You could lend us a hand
moving life support equipment and supplies
to the new tunnels.
ONEILL
Major. Lend `em a hand.
MANSFIELD
Yes sir.
SG16 leave with Aldwin, SG1 leave with Ren-al.
TOK'RA MEETING ROOM
Ren-al goes to a console.
CARTER
What are you doing?
REN-AL
I'm cutting power to the base. The energy
signature would give away our position.
Now they'll have to resort to random
bombardment.
O'NEILL
Well that's encouraging.
REN-AL
Colonel, the Tok'ra have never had the
military resources of the Goa'uld. We
use disguise and subterfuge to achieve
our goals, our bases are designed to
be hidden. We are just not equipped
to repulse such a large enemy force.
CARTER
Well they're not just gonna go away.
REN-AL
I can assure you Major, if this base
is compromised, we will fight until
the last of us has fallen.
O'NEILL
With what? Zats?
REN-AL
What else is there?
O'NEILL
Well, you got that poison. And if it's
half as good as you say it is, it could
wipe out any potential ground assault.
REN-AL
And risk killing every Tok'ra on this
base as well?
O'NEILL
Hey, we're all gonna die if we sit around
and wait for the attack.
REN-AL
(Host voice) Believe me, if it came
down to it, we would sacrifice ourselves
and use the poison on our enemy if we
had some. Unfortunately the only quantity
in existence is in Selmak's possession.
It would take weeks to synthesise more.
The symbiote takes over again and she leaves followed by SG1.
SPACE STATION
Yu and Daniel walk in.
SLAVE
Lord Yu Wang Shang Ti.
Yu looks round and walks to the side of the room.
YU
Note them, Jarren. Our future allies.
Daniel and Yu circle the room and Daniel points out the Goa'uld
as they move round.
DANIEL
Bastet. Kali the Destroyer. They made
a treaty with Sobek then moved against
him during the celebratory feast. Sobek
let his guard down. Rumour has it, his
head still decorates Bastet's palace
in Mubastas.
YU
You have a good memory. They are still
worthy of my allegiance. Do not accept
gifts from Baal.
DANIEL
They have a habit of exploding especially
when he feels he has been slighted.
He wiped out the inhabitants of two
star systems, sixty million lives, rather
than lose them to Sokar in a territorial
dispute.
YU
Poor loser. Do not consort with Morrigan's
servant.
DANIEL
He will attempt to draw strategic information
in seemingly idle conversation. I know
your last servant unwittingly gave away
the location of one of your secret bases
in Velong, to his credit, he was killed
in the surprise attack. It is what has
given me the honour to serve you, my
Lord.
YU
Olokun is still seething over a recent
loss to my forces. He may try to kill
you out of spite. Do not make me look
foolish by allowing yourself to be murdered.
DANIEL
Yes, my Lord.
BAAL
Yu.
They bow their heads to one another.
BAAL
I am pleased you were able to join us
given recent events. I understand your
fleet suffered some heavy losses.
YU
I am not the only one. Did I not hear
that your flagship was destroyed?
BAAL
I lost two thousand jaffa.
YU
Such is war.
BAAL
No. This is different. This enemy attacks
like a coward. Bastet and Kali have
suffered similar setbacks. They are
becoming more frequent while the identity
of our antagonist continues to elude
us.
YU
I am certain you have your suspicions.
BAAL
We are all suffering at the hands of
this unknown adversary. By shrouding
himself he sows discord amongst us.
REVANNA
Many Al-kesh start to bombard the surface of Revanna.
TOK'RA TUNNELS
SG1 and Ren-al are moving through the tunnels when part of it
collapses nearby onto some Tok'ra.
O'NEILL
Mansfield, this is O'Neill. Report.
OTHER TUNNEL.
MANSFIELD
A section of the structure collapsed.
We have some injured Tok'ra here.
ELLIOT
Sir, we've got another one.
O'NEILL
Get `em out of there.
MANSFIELD
Roger that. Let's go, we gotta move.
Elliot, let's go.
ELLIOT
He's still alive, Sir.
More tunnel collapses and hits Mansfield and some other Tok'ra.
O'NEILL
Major, what's your situation? Mansfield,
report!
ZIPACNA'S SHIP
JAFFA
The Al-kesh continues to bomb the area
around the Gate. No Tok'ra have surfaced
in an attempt to escape.
ZIPACNA
Escape? There is no escape. They hide
in their tunnels like rats. Continue
the bombardment. Prepare your groundtroops
for infiltration.
TOK'RA TUNNELS
SG1 and Ren-al come across Elliot and Aldwin carrying Mansfield.
O'NEILL
Elliot?
ELLIOT
Direct hit, Sir.
O'NEILL
Where's the rest of your team?
ELLIOT
They're dead.
CARTER
Sir, we need to get him to the infirmary.
ALDWIN
The Infirmary's been destroyed. (goa'uld
voice)
REN-AL
We'll take them to the lab. Follow me!
They reach the lab and more ceiling falls.
REN-AL
I'm transferring the formula for the
poison to this crystal and erasing the
memory of the computer. We will die
before we give up our secrets.
O'NEILL
You know, we really should come up with
a new strategy. One that does not include
us dying.
TEAL'C
We must determine what is happening
on the surface, O'Neill.
ALDWIN
With the power down ,we are cut off
from the surface sensors. You'll have
to use the secondary ring room. (goa'uld
voice)
REN-AL
Show them.
Aldwin nods.
SPACE STATION
A Goa'uld walks past with a slave and Daniel moves into an alcove
and bows his head. He gets out a communication device.
DANIEL
Jacob? Jacob, are you there, it's Daniel.
JACOB
Daniel? How's it going?
DANIEL
Oh swell, it's kinda like Goa'uld Mardi
Gras here.
JACOB
A ship just docked so by my account
you got all seven. It's time to release
the poison.
DANIEL
Yeah, we may wanna hold off a while.
Apparently they're expecting someone
else.
JACOB
Who?
DANIEL
I don't know. It seems they've got some
mysterious new adversary that's been
causing some pretty serious headaches.
JACOB
That's strange. It's not like the Goa'uld
to play it so coy.
DANIEL
Well, I'll see what I can find out.
I'll contact you later.
He walks off.
TOK'RA LAB
Sam is injecting something into Mansfield.
CARTER
We have to get him out of here. This
man need medical attention.
REN-AL
We've done all we can right now.
CARTER
What about the symbiote?
REN-AL
It's out of the question.
CARTER
It could save Major Mansfield's life.
REN-AL
The symbiote's life is being sustained
by the chamber. It's in no condition
to help your friend.
CARTER
We can't just let him die.
REN-AL
If we implant the symbiote, we kill
them both.
The ceiling suddenly collapses hitting Ren-al and Elliot. A piece
of rock hits the chamber with Lantash in and Sam tries to cover
Mansfield.
REVANNA
The Al-kesh continue to bombard the planet. Jack, Teal'c and
Aldwin appear and move to the top of a ridge where they see at
least five Al- kesh have landed and a lot of jaffa on the ground.
O'NEILL
They appear to be amassing a few troops.
TEAL'C
Once the arial bombardment exposes the
tunnels, they will infiltrate and search
them.
Jack reaches for his radio.
O'NEILL
Carter, come in. Carter, respond.(When
there is no response) Let's get back.
SPACE STATION.
The System Lords are sat in a circle.
YU
This has gone on long enough. We must
determine who is responsible for these
attacks.
BAAL
The coward refuses to show himself.
He only strikes with his ships never
with ground troops.
YU
None of you have seen the faces of the
enemy jaffa?
BASTET
I have. When my outpost at Zeldor came
under assault, my First Prime managed
to disable and board one of the enemy
ships.
YU
Did you take any prisoners?
BASTET
They fought to the death. Most had been
in service of Cronus and Sokar. But
one bore the mark of Olokun.
YU
How do you explain this?
OLOKUN
One of my motherships was surrounded
by the enemy. Instead of dying with
honour, the cowards surrendered and
were taken. They may well have switched
their allegiance.
BAAL
And you expect us to believe this?
OLOKUN
I too have suffered at the hands of
this unseen foe. How dare you accuse
me!
SLAVE
My Lords. The final guest has arrived.
Daniel gets out the poison.
The final guest walks in.
OSIRIS
I hope I'm not missing all the fun.
Daniel moves away out of her sight.
BAAL
Welcome Osiris.
OSIRIS
I thank you for honouring my request.
OLOKUN
Normally a petition for a seat at this
conference would not have been considered.
Of course the current situation is far
from normal.
YU
Jarren?
Yu puts his hand out for a drink. Daniel hands him a cup and
looks up. Osiris spots him and just smiles.
OSIRIS
I think you'll find I have much to offer.
Shall we proceed?
TOK'RA TUNNELS
The jaffa have infiltrated and start firing on Tok'ra.
REVANNA
An alarm starts to go off on Aldwin's belt as Jack and Teal'c
run back with him.
O'NEILL
What's that?
ALDWIN
A warning. The Jaffa have breached the
tunnels. (goa'uld voice)
A glider starts to fire on them. One explosion throws them forward.
Aldwin lands on his neck and it is obviously broken. Jack and
Teal'c are okay though. Teal'c checks on Aldwin and his eyes
glow one last time showing the symbiote has died.
TEAL'C
He is dead.
The gliders come round again and Jack and Teal'c leave to re
enter the tunnels.
TOK'RA LAB
Sam gets up and looks around. She checks Mansfield's pulse and
finds he is dead. She pulls his dogtags off and puts them in
her pocket. She goes over to Ren-al and sees she is dead too.
Sam takes the crystal from Ren-al's pocket and puts it in her
own. She then moves towards Elliot.
CARTER
Lieutenant?
His eyes open and glow.
CARTER
Oh my God.
She looks over to the chamber where Lantash was and sees it is
empty.
CARTER
Lantash?
LANTASH/ELLIOT
I had no choice.
CARTER
Elliot?
LANTASH/ELLIOT
I'm afraid his injuries are severe.
There is serious internal damage. It's
going to take all my strength just to
keep him alive. He will have to speak
for both of us.
His eyes close and Sam puts her hand on his face.
ELLIOT/LANTASH
Major?
CARTER
Elliot. It's gonna be okay.
ELLIOT/LANTASH
If you say so.
CARTER
Believe me, I know. The symbiote's trying
to heal you.
ELLIOT/LANTASH
Okay.
TOK'RA TUNNEL
Jack and Teal'c are making their way back in to Sam.
O'NEILL
Carter!
CARTER
The ceiling in the lab collapsed, Sir.
Ren-al and Major Mansfield are dead.
TEAL'C
As is Aldwin.
CARTER
Elliot's in rough shape, there's a Tok'ra
symbiote inside him.
O'NEILL
What?
ELLIOT/LANTASH
Feels very weird sir.
CARTER
Lantash. He's keeping him alive.
Staff blasts are heard.
O'NEILL
Let's take our chances on the surface.
SPACE STATION
Daniel walks down a corridor and into a room, presumably part
of Yu's quarters. He gets out a communication device.
DANIEL
Jacob?
JACOB
What's the delay? They should all be
there by now.
DANIEL
Yeah, we got a full house. But there's
a complication. Sarah's here.
JACOB
Sarah? You mean Osiris? Did she recognise
you?
DANIEL
I don't know, I think so but she didn't
tip her hand and I don't know why.
The door behind him opens and Osiris is behind him.
OSIRIS
Daniel Jackson. You're a rather long
way from home aren't you?
TOK'RA TUNNELS
SG1 and Elliot are trying to find a way out when more of the
ceiling collapses.
TEAL'C
The tunnel is blocked.
CARTER
Does Lantash know if there's another
way to the secondary ring room?
ELLIOT/LANTASH
There isn't.
TEAL'C
Then indeed we are trapped.
