Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:05,327 --> 00:00:07,158
Previously on Stargate Atlantis...
2
00:00:07,327 --> 00:00:10,000
What do we know about the Wraith?
3
00:00:10,167 --> 00:00:13,716
They are the enemy
that defeated the Ancients.
4
00:00:13,887 --> 00:00:16,924
A few hundred years pass
before they awaken.
5
00:00:17,087 --> 00:00:19,282
We have visited many worlds.
6
00:00:19,447 --> 00:00:21,802
I know of none untouched by the Wraith.
7
00:00:21,967 --> 00:00:26,279
You are doomed, as are any humans
that stand in our way.
8
00:00:26,447 --> 00:00:29,962
- The Ancients researched ascension.
- What is ascension?
9
00:00:30,127 --> 00:00:32,880
Where they rid themselves
of their physical bodies
10
00:00:33,047 --> 00:00:37,006
and rise to a higher plane of existence
where they live as pure energy.
11
00:00:45,527 --> 00:00:49,315
- I count two. How about you?
- Yes, sir. I recommend shooting back.
12
00:00:49,487 --> 00:00:52,160
That hit must've caused
some damage. McKay?
13
00:00:52,327 --> 00:00:54,682
- I'm on it.
- Where did they come from?
14
00:00:55,887 --> 00:01:00,677
The darts are short-range fighters.
There's probably a hive ship somewhere.
15
00:01:00,847 --> 00:01:03,566
- Then we need to get out of here.
- Yes, we do.
16
00:01:03,727 --> 00:01:07,276
- The Stargate is the other way.
- This is the scenic route. McKay!
17
00:01:07,447 --> 00:01:10,678
- I'm almost there.
- There's one on our tail!
18
00:01:10,847 --> 00:01:14,078
- Keep your eye on the other one.
- You should have weapons.
19
00:01:14,247 --> 00:01:15,566
- Negative.
- Sure?
20
00:01:15,727 --> 00:01:18,321
- Positive!
- I'm pretty sure I fixed it.
21
00:01:18,487 --> 00:01:20,603
Well, obviously you didn't!
22
00:01:21,807 --> 00:01:24,002
We could lose them in the atmosphere.
23
00:01:24,167 --> 00:01:26,920
- Two more darts on our two o'clock.
- I see 'em. McKay!
24
00:01:27,087 --> 00:01:29,965
It's not like I'm holding back on you.
25
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:37,074
AmericasCardroom.com brings poker back
Million Dollar Sunday Tournament every Sunday
26
00:01:43,567 --> 00:01:45,558
Hang on!
27
00:01:57,087 --> 00:02:01,797
- The Wraith darts have been destroyed.
- That's a good thing.
28
00:02:01,967 --> 00:02:06,483
I thought for sure we were dead.
Didn't you think we were dead?
29
00:02:06,647 --> 00:02:09,286
- What was that?
- Some sort of energy weapon.
30
00:02:09,447 --> 00:02:12,041
What do you say we find out?
31
00:02:14,367 --> 00:02:16,358
Yeah.
32
00:03:20,007 --> 00:03:25,718
So, just to confirm,
we're all still... definitely not dead.
33
00:03:25,887 --> 00:03:28,447
- I feel very much alive.
- Good. Same here.
34
00:03:28,607 --> 00:03:30,837
- Wish I knew what that was.
- Lightning?
35
00:03:31,007 --> 00:03:34,158
- Space lightning?
- It's some sort of an energy weapon.
36
00:03:34,327 --> 00:03:37,797
- One that destroys Wraith darts.
- But why them and not us?
37
00:03:37,967 --> 00:03:39,798
Assuming that we're still alive,
38
00:03:39,967 --> 00:03:43,801
and there doesn't appear to be
any damage, we can conclude that...
39
00:03:43,967 --> 00:03:48,199
Um... um...
40
00:03:48,367 --> 00:03:52,485
I got nothing to conclude.
I'm just talking for the sake of talking.
41
00:03:52,647 --> 00:03:55,798
- Are you sure you're OK?
- I hate certain death.
42
00:03:55,967 --> 00:04:00,006
- You're alive.
- Could it be naturally occurring?
43
00:04:00,167 --> 00:04:03,716
- My money's on non-naturally.
- A weapon the Ancients left?
44
00:04:03,887 --> 00:04:06,481
A weapon that impressive
would be powered by...
45
00:04:06,647 --> 00:04:09,241
A zero-point module.
We need to get down there.
46
00:04:09,407 --> 00:04:13,525
I've got to put down and check for damage
anyway before we head back.
47
00:04:25,367 --> 00:04:29,599
If there is a weapon somewhere
down here, sir, these folks didn't build it.
48
00:04:29,767 --> 00:04:33,123
Not these kids. Picking up anything?
49
00:04:33,287 --> 00:04:36,484
Everything, just nothing worth mentioning.
50
00:04:36,647 --> 00:04:39,798
- These folks look familiar?
- The Stargate is in orbit.
51
00:04:39,967 --> 00:04:42,322
My people could never
have ventured here.
52
00:04:42,487 --> 00:04:45,923
Right. What say we venture?
53
00:05:08,887 --> 00:05:10,878
Hi.
54
00:05:13,167 --> 00:05:15,158
It's OK. We're friendly.
55
00:05:16,367 --> 00:05:18,358
Hi.
56
00:05:19,327 --> 00:05:23,240
It is likely they have never seen anyone
from outside their village.
57
00:05:35,887 --> 00:05:37,639
Welcome.
58
00:05:37,807 --> 00:05:42,278
I am Zarah, one of the abbots of Proculis.
59
00:05:42,447 --> 00:05:44,039
I'm John. John Sheppard.
60
00:05:44,207 --> 00:05:48,519
This is Teyla, Lieutenant Ford
and Dr. McKay.
61
00:05:50,167 --> 00:05:52,158
Please, come.
62
00:06:13,327 --> 00:06:17,366
This is the first time,
at least in my own lifetime,
63
00:06:17,527 --> 00:06:21,156
that people from another land
have come to us.
64
00:06:21,327 --> 00:06:24,239
Well, we came by ship.
65
00:06:24,407 --> 00:06:30,846
A flying... thing that allows us
to move from one world to another.
66
00:06:31,007 --> 00:06:36,320
- Another world?
- From among the stars in the night sky.
67
00:06:36,487 --> 00:06:39,206
We are peaceful explorers.
68
00:06:39,367 --> 00:06:42,996
Then glory to Athar
for bringing you here safely.
69
00:06:44,087 --> 00:06:49,036
- Athar?
- The provider and protector of all.
70
00:06:49,207 --> 00:06:50,686
Surely you know.
71
00:06:50,847 --> 00:06:54,237
Athar is known by many names
among the stars.
72
00:06:54,407 --> 00:06:56,523
Is Athar around?
73
00:06:56,687 --> 00:06:59,918
We'd love to talk to him. We're friends.
74
00:07:00,087 --> 00:07:04,365
Athar is friend to all, and with us always.
75
00:07:04,527 --> 00:07:06,518
Even now.
76
00:07:06,687 --> 00:07:10,282
Of course. Hi, Athar.
77
00:07:10,447 --> 00:07:14,838
What Dr. McKay means
is that we wish to offer our thanks.
78
00:07:15,007 --> 00:07:19,637
We were attacked by the Wraith and would
have been killed were it not for Athar.
79
00:07:19,807 --> 00:07:22,002
Wraith?
80
00:07:22,167 --> 00:07:25,682
Pale skin, sunken eyes,
suck the life out of you with their hands.
81
00:07:25,847 --> 00:07:28,566
We have never encountered such beings.
82
00:07:28,727 --> 00:07:30,922
Never?
83
00:07:31,087 --> 00:07:33,885
And there is no mention of them
in your history?
84
00:07:34,047 --> 00:07:37,801
None. I can assure you
that for many thousands of years
85
00:07:37,967 --> 00:07:41,118
we have lived here in peace.
86
00:07:42,567 --> 00:07:45,127
Could you excuse us for a moment?
87
00:07:45,287 --> 00:07:48,882
Of course. Please, I must tell
the other abbots of your arrival
88
00:07:49,047 --> 00:07:51,083
before we go to meet with Chaya.
89
00:07:51,247 --> 00:07:55,240
- Chaya is...?
- The high priestess of Athar.
90
00:07:56,247 --> 00:07:58,886
This is a great day for our people.
91
00:08:01,167 --> 00:08:03,727
Ours too.
92
00:08:05,367 --> 00:08:08,996
- I'm not kidding. This could really work.
- I agree, Major.
93
00:08:09,167 --> 00:08:13,160
Every inhabited world I have encountered
has been ravaged by the Wraith.
94
00:08:13,327 --> 00:08:15,363
It's protected by an Ancient weapon.
95
00:08:15,527 --> 00:08:17,563
- This confirms it.
- Does it?
96
00:08:17,727 --> 00:08:20,958
The power requirements
must be astronomical.
97
00:08:21,127 --> 00:08:23,402
Only a ZPM could generate that.
98
00:08:23,567 --> 00:08:26,639
They do not appear to be
technologically advanced.
99
00:08:26,807 --> 00:08:29,958
Unless that guy was lying.
He doesn't seem like the lying type.
100
00:08:30,127 --> 00:08:32,766
So, automated defences?
101
00:08:32,927 --> 00:08:37,205
Imagine a world where displaced refugees
could come and live in peace
102
00:08:37,367 --> 00:08:39,835
without fear of being culled by the Wraith.
103
00:08:40,007 --> 00:08:43,886
- We can negotiate a treaty.
- We need access to the weapon or ZPM.
104
00:08:44,047 --> 00:08:48,404
- Not that we'd steal it.
- Let's try to stay on our best behaviour.
105
00:08:48,567 --> 00:08:50,842
I'm always on my best behaviour.
106
00:08:54,367 --> 00:08:57,040
- How much farther?
- Not very.
107
00:08:57,207 --> 00:08:59,198
Oh, good.
108
00:09:00,367 --> 00:09:03,404
- We could have taken the jumper.
- Exercise is good.
109
00:09:03,567 --> 00:09:05,956
Chaya does live pretty far
from your people.
110
00:09:06,127 --> 00:09:10,518
It is not uncommon, Major, for clerics
to live apart from the community.
111
00:09:38,047 --> 00:09:41,005
- Glory to Athar.
- Welcome, and rest.
112
00:09:41,167 --> 00:09:43,965
Thank you, sister.
113
00:09:44,127 --> 00:09:49,076
- You are new to Proculis.
- Yes. We're brand-new, in fact.
114
00:09:50,447 --> 00:09:54,679
- Major John Sheppard.
- I am called Chaya Sar.
115
00:09:54,847 --> 00:10:00,479
And you are... Teyla,
Lieutenant Ford and Dr. McKay.
116
00:10:00,647 --> 00:10:03,923
- How did she know that?
- One of the abbots ran ahead.
117
00:10:04,087 --> 00:10:06,806
It's a pleasure to meet you, Chaya.
118
00:10:06,967 --> 00:10:11,040
You must be tired after your long journey.
Shall I prepare some tea?
119
00:10:12,367 --> 00:10:16,076
Well, I was hoping
you were gonna say just that.
120
00:10:18,607 --> 00:10:22,122
- Where do they come from?
- They're everywhere in this galaxy.
121
00:10:22,287 --> 00:10:25,438
They've been on top of the food chain
for a long time.
122
00:10:25,607 --> 00:10:31,796
It's terrifying. Truly terrifying.
My heart goes out to your people, Teyla.
123
00:10:31,967 --> 00:10:34,083
It is not only my people who suffer.
124
00:10:34,247 --> 00:10:36,477
The Wraith have awakened
from a long sleep
125
00:10:36,647 --> 00:10:40,879
and this entire world is safe
from the culling that has already begun.
126
00:10:41,047 --> 00:10:45,757
Even Atlantis, with all its wonder,
may not survive the onslaught.
127
00:10:45,927 --> 00:10:50,796
It is our hope that Athar
could grant sanctuary here on Proculis.
128
00:10:50,967 --> 00:10:53,720
Sanctuary?
129
00:10:53,887 --> 00:10:56,321
For so many?
130
00:10:56,487 --> 00:10:59,684
We're not talking about
everybody in the galaxy showing up.
131
00:10:59,847 --> 00:11:03,203
- This planet is pretty big.
- And largely uninhabited.
132
00:11:03,367 --> 00:11:06,006
More importantly,
it is protected by your weapon.
133
00:11:06,167 --> 00:11:09,318
Weapon? I am aware
of no such thing on Proculis.
134
00:11:12,127 --> 00:11:14,721
- Are you sure about that?
- Yes.
135
00:11:14,887 --> 00:11:17,685
- Oh, please.
- Rodney, best behaviour.
136
00:11:17,847 --> 00:11:19,644
This is as good as it gets.
137
00:11:19,807 --> 00:11:23,083
Chaya, we're alive because of
a powerful energy weapon
138
00:11:23,247 --> 00:11:25,238
that emanated from this planet.
139
00:11:25,407 --> 00:11:29,320
It destroyed the enemy ships.
That weapon is keeping the Wraith away.
140
00:11:29,487 --> 00:11:32,126
No, Dr. McKay.
It was Athar who protected you.
141
00:11:32,287 --> 00:11:36,280
- Athar?
- Yes. Athar saw you were in need.
142
00:11:37,447 --> 00:11:40,644
Chaya, there are a lot of people just like...
143
00:11:42,527 --> 00:11:45,963
you and me
who are in need because of the Wraith.
144
00:11:46,127 --> 00:11:50,245
What you have here,
what Athar has provided you,
145
00:11:50,407 --> 00:11:53,797
is a very rare thing,
146
00:11:53,967 --> 00:11:56,322
but we have a lot to offer too.
147
00:11:56,487 --> 00:12:00,196
That's what friends do. They share.
148
00:12:00,367 --> 00:12:02,597
I think we could help each other.
149
00:12:03,767 --> 00:12:06,156
I understand.
150
00:12:07,327 --> 00:12:09,887
I shall consult with her now.
151
00:12:11,927 --> 00:12:15,715
Please stay here.
I don't know how long this will take.
152
00:12:17,207 --> 00:12:18,799
Thank you.
153
00:12:18,967 --> 00:12:22,164
"What Athar provides for you?"
Are you buying into this?
154
00:12:22,327 --> 00:12:26,366
Rodney, what religious people
don't take their religion seriously?
155
00:12:26,527 --> 00:12:28,518
We didn't imagine that weapon.
156
00:12:28,687 --> 00:12:31,679
- We saw what it was capable of.
- Yes, we did.
157
00:12:31,847 --> 00:12:35,556
Perhaps Chaya is simply unaware
of the weapon's existence.
158
00:12:35,727 --> 00:12:38,605
Or she knows
and wants to keep it a secret from us.
159
00:12:38,767 --> 00:12:41,884
She doesn't strike me
as the lying type, either.
160
00:12:43,207 --> 00:12:46,995
All right, let's just see
what Athar has to say.
161
00:12:47,887 --> 00:12:51,118
So, pay no attention to the man
behind the curtain, hmm?
162
00:12:51,287 --> 00:12:53,278
Exactly.
163
00:13:16,807 --> 00:13:21,676
Major. We have conveyed your request
to our Divine Mother.
164
00:13:21,847 --> 00:13:24,884
She does not doubt
the righteousness of your mission,
165
00:13:25,047 --> 00:13:28,835
but she cannot countenance
any other people but hers settling here.
166
00:13:29,007 --> 00:13:31,999
You had to chant all that time
to come up with that?
167
00:13:32,167 --> 00:13:35,762
- McKay.
- Is there any way Athar can reconsider?
168
00:13:35,927 --> 00:13:37,997
Athar understands and sympathises.
169
00:13:38,167 --> 00:13:40,681
These Wraith are a scourge
among our stars.
170
00:13:40,847 --> 00:13:44,840
But she has to place
the lives of her people first.
171
00:13:45,007 --> 00:13:48,397
We both knew what you were gonna say
before you even went in.
172
00:13:48,567 --> 00:13:50,797
We prayed for Athar's guidance.
173
00:13:50,967 --> 00:13:53,037
And what did Athar say?
174
00:13:53,207 --> 00:13:56,483
You're hiding behind your religion
to justify your selfishness.
175
00:13:56,647 --> 00:14:00,162
- Rodney...
- If Athar existed, she would be ashamed.
176
00:14:00,327 --> 00:14:04,081
We ask only to be left alone and in peace.
177
00:14:04,247 --> 00:14:08,877
So thousands will die when they could
have been saved, all in the name of Athar.
178
00:14:09,047 --> 00:14:12,357
- How peaceful of you.
- You should be grateful to Athar.
179
00:14:12,527 --> 00:14:15,837
- This is a waste of time.
- Athar regrets that she cannot help.
180
00:14:16,007 --> 00:14:19,397
- I'm sure those were her exact words.
- That's enough!
181
00:14:20,687 --> 00:14:23,406
Head back to the jumper.
I'll be there in a minute.
182
00:14:23,567 --> 00:14:25,523
- Why?
- 'Cause you're not helping.
183
00:14:25,687 --> 00:14:27,678
Yes, sir.
184
00:14:35,727 --> 00:14:37,524
I apologise.
185
00:14:37,687 --> 00:14:40,645
He acts only in accordance to his beliefs,
as do we.
186
00:14:40,807 --> 00:14:43,526
But Rodney is right about one thing.
187
00:14:43,687 --> 00:14:46,884
This really is about lives, human lives.
188
00:14:47,047 --> 00:14:50,005
The Wraith will show up in Atlantis.
When they do...
189
00:14:50,167 --> 00:14:54,365
- You're a warrior.
- Well, I don't know about "warrior".
190
00:14:54,527 --> 00:14:57,246
It is your vocation, Major. You will fight.
191
00:14:57,407 --> 00:15:02,276
I'll try, but knowing what we're up against,
and the odds...
192
00:15:03,647 --> 00:15:07,765
Look, I'd appreciate it
if you would ask Athar
193
00:15:07,927 --> 00:15:11,886
to consider that we are her people.
194
00:15:12,887 --> 00:15:17,722
Even though we come from very far away,
we're the same, we're human,
195
00:15:17,887 --> 00:15:20,640
which means we're not strangers,
we're family.
196
00:15:26,887 --> 00:15:28,764
Whoa.
197
00:15:28,927 --> 00:15:30,599
Evening breeze.
198
00:15:31,607 --> 00:15:34,041
I was hoping it was a sign from Athar.
199
00:15:34,207 --> 00:15:37,040
Your words are most compelling,
Major Sheppard.
200
00:15:37,207 --> 00:15:39,767
Thank you. I was going for compelling.
201
00:15:39,927 --> 00:15:42,157
Do you truly believe we are family?
202
00:15:42,327 --> 00:15:44,477
We are. I can prove it to you.
203
00:15:44,647 --> 00:15:46,797
- How?
- Come back to Atlantis.
204
00:15:46,967 --> 00:15:50,437
See who we really are.
Once Athar learns more about us...
205
00:15:50,607 --> 00:15:52,677
- This is acceptable.
- It is?
206
00:15:53,847 --> 00:15:57,157
Chaya, please, you cannot leave.
207
00:15:57,327 --> 00:16:01,115
Athar is with us always,
no matter where we are, Zarah.
208
00:16:07,167 --> 00:16:09,158
I understand.
209
00:16:13,847 --> 00:16:15,838
I am ready.
210
00:16:18,807 --> 00:16:21,526
- Welcome to Atlantis.
- Thank you.
211
00:16:21,687 --> 00:16:24,565
Our doctors do require a medical exam
212
00:16:24,727 --> 00:16:27,446
of all off-planet team members
and our visitors.
213
00:16:27,607 --> 00:16:30,075
- Then perhaps you'd like a tour.
- I would.
214
00:16:30,247 --> 00:16:32,886
Major Sheppard
has already promised to do so.
215
00:16:33,047 --> 00:16:35,242
- Of course he has.
- Of course I have.
216
00:16:35,407 --> 00:16:37,477
If you'll follow me to the infirmary.
217
00:16:37,647 --> 00:16:40,844
- Maybe I should tag along...
- I think I got a handle.
218
00:16:41,007 --> 00:16:44,397
- There are a lot of systems you know...
- Got it covered.
219
00:16:45,847 --> 00:16:47,439
Fine.
220
00:16:55,687 --> 00:16:58,326
Hold still. Just a minute more.
221
00:17:00,767 --> 00:17:05,238
Well, it seems you're just as lovely
on the inside as you are on the out,
222
00:17:05,407 --> 00:17:08,160
if health is synonymous with beauty.
223
00:17:08,327 --> 00:17:10,124
You can get up now.
224
00:17:10,287 --> 00:17:12,755
How does this device
do what you say it does?
225
00:17:12,927 --> 00:17:15,725
It creates images of the tissues
inside your body.
226
00:17:15,887 --> 00:17:20,085
- They are picture perfect.
- Are these machines from your world?
227
00:17:20,247 --> 00:17:24,286
Some. Others are Atlantean technology
that we've figured out how to use,
228
00:17:24,447 --> 00:17:28,156
and a few, well, I haven't
the vaguest idea of what they do.
229
00:17:28,327 --> 00:17:31,046
Hopefully one day
I'll meet one and ask them.
230
00:17:31,207 --> 00:17:36,122
- Do you know what happened to them?
- Some returned to Earth after the war.
231
00:17:36,287 --> 00:17:39,359
That much we know.
But some of them ascended.
232
00:17:39,527 --> 00:17:41,006
Ascended?
233
00:17:41,167 --> 00:17:44,159
To a higher plane,
where they exist only as energy.
234
00:17:44,327 --> 00:17:47,160
Are all the people of your world
as healthy as you?
235
00:17:47,327 --> 00:17:48,999
Yes.
236
00:17:49,167 --> 00:17:53,479
No disease, ailments?
No one ever breaks a leg?
237
00:17:53,647 --> 00:17:56,844
Such things are rare,
but my people heal quite rapidly.
238
00:17:57,007 --> 00:17:58,599
Really?
239
00:18:01,167 --> 00:18:03,601
- Are we done?
- Are we?
240
00:18:03,767 --> 00:18:06,759
Healthiest patient I've ever had.
Off you go, love.
241
00:18:11,807 --> 00:18:14,685
- Where are we?
- Either she knows where the weapon is,
242
00:18:14,847 --> 00:18:17,407
or she has no idea
and we are wasting our time.
243
00:18:17,567 --> 00:18:21,082
- What do you suggest?
- Scan the planet for energy signatures.
244
00:18:21,247 --> 00:18:26,116
They won't know what we're doing unless
they're advanced and pretending not to be,
245
00:18:26,287 --> 00:18:28,517
which has happened before.
246
00:18:28,687 --> 00:18:32,441
Did you find something that would suggest
they are more advanced?
247
00:18:32,607 --> 00:18:36,839
No. They're pathetically pretechnological
or brilliantly post-technological.
248
00:18:37,007 --> 00:18:39,157
There's no way this could be natural?
249
00:18:39,327 --> 00:18:42,239
A timed energy burst
that only affected Wraith ships?
250
00:18:42,407 --> 00:18:44,477
- That's a no?
- That's a no.
251
00:18:44,647 --> 00:18:48,925
- Dr. Weir, I have those results.
- Thank you, Carson. We're on our way.
252
00:18:51,967 --> 00:18:53,764
How many of you are there?
253
00:18:53,927 --> 00:18:57,124
Counting the Athosians on the mainland,
a couple of hundred,
254
00:18:57,287 --> 00:18:59,482
which leaves a very large, empty city.
255
00:18:59,647 --> 00:19:04,641
We're living in one section because
we don't have the power to spread out.
256
00:19:06,527 --> 00:19:08,643
What do you think so far?
257
00:19:08,807 --> 00:19:11,162
I think it's wondrous.
258
00:19:11,327 --> 00:19:13,921
But ultimately the decision is up to Athar.
259
00:19:16,127 --> 00:19:18,322
You're not a believer, are you?
260
00:19:18,487 --> 00:19:22,639
Look, Chaya, I respect that you believe.
261
00:19:22,807 --> 00:19:27,562
Look, I can't talk to Athar. I can only talk
to you, so let me ask you this.
262
00:19:27,727 --> 00:19:30,287
What if the shoe was on the other foot?
263
00:19:30,447 --> 00:19:32,836
What if your people were in trouble?
264
00:19:33,007 --> 00:19:36,477
Would you just take no for an answer?
265
00:19:36,647 --> 00:19:40,560
It must have been very hard
to live under the shadow of the Wraith.
266
00:19:42,407 --> 00:19:45,524
Teyla and her people
have known the Wraith for ever,
267
00:19:45,687 --> 00:19:48,440
but when I say we're new,
I mean we just got here.
268
00:19:48,607 --> 00:19:50,882
We're from a planet called Earth.
269
00:19:51,047 --> 00:19:53,607
- Earth?
- It's very far away.
270
00:19:53,767 --> 00:19:57,965
Those clusters of stars in the night sky,
some of 'em are called galaxies.
271
00:19:58,127 --> 00:20:00,516
They're even further away than the stars.
272
00:20:00,687 --> 00:20:02,723
Earth is in one of those galaxies.
273
00:20:02,887 --> 00:20:05,799
- You came through the Stargate?
- That's right.
274
00:20:05,967 --> 00:20:09,642
- And can you not simply return?
- Well, not simply.
275
00:20:09,807 --> 00:20:13,641
We knew that it was probably
going to be a one-way trip,
276
00:20:13,807 --> 00:20:17,402
but we thought what we would find here
would be worth the risk.
277
00:20:17,567 --> 00:20:19,558
- And is it?
- So far.
278
00:20:19,727 --> 00:20:22,195
Ask me again when the Wraith show up.
279
00:20:22,367 --> 00:20:26,599
Blood work shows no viral,
bacterial or parasitic infections.
280
00:20:26,767 --> 00:20:31,921
MRI reveals no tumours or cancers,
no heart defects of any kind.
281
00:20:32,087 --> 00:20:37,559
Blood pressure 130 over 70.
Total cholesterol 107.
282
00:20:37,727 --> 00:20:39,524
She's in perfect health.
283
00:20:39,687 --> 00:20:42,804
I'm happy for her.
Why did we need to see this?
284
00:20:42,967 --> 00:20:45,435
- She's too healthy.
- What does that mean?
285
00:20:45,607 --> 00:20:48,121
There's no trace of congenital conditions
286
00:20:48,287 --> 00:20:51,563
that you typically find
in pretechnological societies.
287
00:20:51,727 --> 00:20:54,161
No rickets, no fungi, STDs...
288
00:20:54,327 --> 00:20:56,124
- Perfect health?
- Aye.
289
00:20:56,287 --> 00:20:59,677
From what she told me,
this may be the norm among her people.
290
00:20:59,847 --> 00:21:01,963
- But she is human?
- Without a doubt.
291
00:21:02,127 --> 00:21:06,723
- How is that possible?
- I can't say for certain.
292
00:21:06,887 --> 00:21:11,085
But if this data is accurate,
people on Proculis live in optimal health
293
00:21:11,247 --> 00:21:13,044
for a very, very long time.
294
00:21:13,207 --> 00:21:17,280
- You make it sound like some sort of a...
- Paradise? Because it is.
295
00:21:17,447 --> 00:21:20,120
And that's a problem because...?
296
00:21:20,287 --> 00:21:25,281
Because human life, quite simply,
Dr. Weir, is more fragile than that.
297
00:21:26,567 --> 00:21:30,082
I don't care what galaxy we're in,
it's unnatural.
298
00:21:37,437 --> 00:21:39,632
The ocean air is so invigorating.
299
00:21:39,797 --> 00:21:43,551
Plenty of that here.
Most of the planet's ocean.
300
00:21:44,637 --> 00:21:47,549
There's enough land
to resettle the refugees.
301
00:21:47,717 --> 00:21:50,948
Well, there is.
We just can't guarantee their safety.
302
00:21:51,117 --> 00:21:53,153
Even though you control all of this?
303
00:21:53,317 --> 00:21:57,230
I'd be lying if I said we controlled it all.
304
00:21:57,397 --> 00:22:00,628
This place is so far beyond us
in so many ways.
305
00:22:00,797 --> 00:22:04,949
We have a shield that can withstand
anything the Wraith could throw at us,
306
00:22:05,117 --> 00:22:07,233
but we have no way of powering it up.
307
00:22:07,397 --> 00:22:10,912
We can't risk taking in any more refugees
than we already have.
308
00:22:13,477 --> 00:22:15,911
Come with me.
309
00:22:17,277 --> 00:22:20,235
- Major Sheppard...
- I'd prefer you to call me John.
310
00:22:20,397 --> 00:22:23,787
John. How did you make enemies
of the Wraith?
311
00:22:23,957 --> 00:22:26,266
- That was my fault.
- Yours?
312
00:22:26,437 --> 00:22:29,110
I woke them up
trying to rescue some people.
313
00:22:29,277 --> 00:22:31,313
They didn't take too kindly to that.
314
00:22:31,477 --> 00:22:33,672
But you saved your people?
315
00:22:33,837 --> 00:22:35,634
Most of 'em.
316
00:22:35,797 --> 00:22:37,992
You know for sure they're coming back?
317
00:22:38,157 --> 00:22:40,990
Yeah, we just don't know when.
318
00:22:41,157 --> 00:22:43,830
Main control console,
319
00:22:43,997 --> 00:22:46,192
environmental support systems,
320
00:22:46,357 --> 00:22:48,348
communications.
321
00:22:48,517 --> 00:22:51,793
And this... This is, uh...
322
00:22:54,357 --> 00:22:57,110
Sorry, Major.
We haven't the faintest idea what...
323
00:22:59,877 --> 00:23:03,233
This is a new piece of equipment
we found in the city.
324
00:23:03,397 --> 00:23:05,786
- It hadn't been initialised.
- She has...
325
00:23:05,957 --> 00:23:07,754
She has the gene.
326
00:23:07,917 --> 00:23:12,388
- Did I do this? What does the machine do?
- We don't know. Not yet, anyway.
327
00:23:12,557 --> 00:23:14,946
The Atlanteans were good at lots of things.
328
00:23:15,117 --> 00:23:18,029
Writing instruction manuals
wasn't one of 'em.
329
00:23:18,197 --> 00:23:21,189
We should probably wrap this tour up.
330
00:23:21,357 --> 00:23:24,269
I know Dr. Weir is anxious to talk to you.
331
00:23:25,157 --> 00:23:28,513
- Will I see you afterwards?
- And during.
332
00:23:32,157 --> 00:23:34,546
We are proposing a kind of land lease
333
00:23:34,717 --> 00:23:39,029
in which refugees rendered homeless
by the Wraith could resettle on Proculis.
334
00:23:39,197 --> 00:23:42,189
In return, we can offer you
services and knowledge.
335
00:23:42,357 --> 00:23:45,872
- Such as?
- You've seen the technology we possess.
336
00:23:46,037 --> 00:23:48,949
We could help you down a path
to an industrialised society
337
00:23:49,117 --> 00:23:52,268
while maintaining
your planet's ecological balance.
338
00:23:52,437 --> 00:23:56,828
Your scientific knowledge is impressive,
Dr. Weir, but we have no need of it.
339
00:23:56,997 --> 00:23:59,557
Athar provides us
with everything we require.
340
00:23:59,717 --> 00:24:03,027
Well, food just doesn't show up
on the dinner table.
341
00:24:03,197 --> 00:24:06,030
- You plant all your own crops?
- Of course we do.
342
00:24:06,197 --> 00:24:08,313
We can help increase your crop yields.
343
00:24:08,477 --> 00:24:12,675
We grow all the food we need to live.
Anything else would be gluttony.
344
00:24:12,837 --> 00:24:17,592
- Building materials, then.
- We have abundant timber and iron ore.
345
00:24:17,757 --> 00:24:19,748
Athar is kind.
346
00:24:23,477 --> 00:24:25,593
There must be something.
347
00:24:25,757 --> 00:24:29,147
What my people value most
is spiritual knowledge.
348
00:24:29,317 --> 00:24:32,627
What can your culture provide
in that regard?
349
00:24:34,557 --> 00:24:38,186
Earth's people don't share
a single spiritual belief.
350
00:24:38,357 --> 00:24:41,986
We embrace a number
of different religions and philosophies.
351
00:24:42,157 --> 00:24:46,867
Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Islam...
352
00:24:47,037 --> 00:24:50,029
Hinduism, Kwanzaa...
353
00:24:50,997 --> 00:24:52,988
Interesting. Tell me about them.
354
00:24:53,157 --> 00:24:57,150
- All of them?
- Yes. They sound fascinating.
355
00:24:57,317 --> 00:25:01,515
I am hardly competent to discuss
all religions, but I can offer you resources.
356
00:25:01,677 --> 00:25:04,669
You could have access
to our historical database.
357
00:25:05,477 --> 00:25:08,071
That would be wonderful.
358
00:25:10,597 --> 00:25:12,588
- You got it working?
- Yeah.
359
00:25:12,757 --> 00:25:14,873
Well, do we know what it does?
360
00:25:15,037 --> 00:25:17,790
It's an internal-external
biometric sensor array.
361
00:25:17,957 --> 00:25:22,235
See, now, sadly, I understood that.
Where did all those Saturday nights go?
362
00:25:22,397 --> 00:25:25,036
These are biosignatures
of everyone in Atlantis.
363
00:25:25,197 --> 00:25:27,427
How can you tell?
364
00:25:27,597 --> 00:25:30,111
I've been deciphering
the Ancient logarithms.
365
00:25:30,277 --> 00:25:32,632
I suspect this was
an early-warning system
366
00:25:32,797 --> 00:25:35,311
to signal any alien presence in the city.
367
00:25:35,477 --> 00:25:38,549
And it activated
when our visitor touched it?
368
00:25:38,717 --> 00:25:40,753
So she has the Ancient gene.
369
00:25:40,917 --> 00:25:44,387
Or it only activated
because it was detecting her.
370
00:25:44,557 --> 00:25:48,470
She could be an alien and this thing
knows more about her than we do.
371
00:25:48,637 --> 00:25:51,834
- We should be keeping an eye on her.
- Major Sheppard is.
372
00:25:51,997 --> 00:25:54,909
- I'm sure.
- Not entirely for the reasons you think.
373
00:25:55,077 --> 00:25:57,875
- Dr. Weir asked him to.
- I'm sure she did.
374
00:26:04,077 --> 00:26:06,955
- Weir wanted Chaya to see everything.
- Everything?
375
00:26:07,117 --> 00:26:11,110
Not everything. Chaya wanted
to see the best view of the city at night,
376
00:26:11,277 --> 00:26:14,030
which I think is atop the south-west pier,
377
00:26:14,197 --> 00:26:18,713
and since it's such a long walk,
I thought I'd bring along a few provisions.
378
00:26:18,877 --> 00:26:21,391
Continuing our efforts to secure a treaty.
379
00:26:21,557 --> 00:26:24,355
- Exactly.
- As our ambassador.
380
00:26:26,797 --> 00:26:32,110
I am an ambassador
and she is a diplomat.
381
00:26:32,277 --> 00:26:35,474
On a late-night... picnic?
382
00:26:36,477 --> 00:26:38,433
Yes.
383
00:26:38,597 --> 00:26:41,953
I know that as ranking military officer
here in Atlantis,
384
00:26:42,117 --> 00:26:45,154
you feel a heavy burden of responsibility,
385
00:26:45,317 --> 00:26:48,514
but you are allowed
to have feelings for others.
386
00:26:49,397 --> 00:26:54,710
No, this is an ambassadorial,
diplomatic picnic outing... thing.
387
00:26:54,877 --> 00:26:57,994
Without having to justify them to anyone.
388
00:26:59,797 --> 00:27:01,788
Goodnight, Major.
389
00:27:03,477 --> 00:27:05,468
Goodnight, Teyla.
390
00:27:10,117 --> 00:27:13,268
- Send her back?
- She's not who she's pretending to be.
391
00:27:13,437 --> 00:27:16,270
- You know this because...?
- I can't have intuition?
392
00:27:16,437 --> 00:27:19,349
No. I asked Major Sheppard
to keep an eye on her.
393
00:27:19,517 --> 00:27:22,395
Which is like asking the fox
to guard the hen-house.
394
00:27:22,557 --> 00:27:23,876
What?
395
00:27:24,037 --> 00:27:27,791
The biometric differential
is not insignificant, Elizabeth.
396
00:27:27,957 --> 00:27:31,108
What I'm saying is
the woman set off an alien alarm.
397
00:27:31,277 --> 00:27:33,074
You don't know that for certain.
398
00:27:33,237 --> 00:27:37,025
You are nowhere close
to understanding the nature of that device.
399
00:27:37,197 --> 00:27:39,950
There are too many unknown variables:
the weapon,
400
00:27:40,117 --> 00:27:43,553
they claim never to have seen the Wraith,
she's healthy.
401
00:27:43,717 --> 00:27:45,992
Very mysterious, but what does it prove?
402
00:27:46,157 --> 00:27:48,910
We should give her
a one-way ticket back home.
403
00:27:49,077 --> 00:27:54,231
There is something different about her, but
that doesn't necessarily make her a threat.
404
00:27:54,397 --> 00:27:56,388
It doesn't rule it out, either.
405
00:27:56,557 --> 00:28:02,746
Then what we could gain by securing
a treaty is worth the risk of her being here.
406
00:28:02,917 --> 00:28:04,236
Fine.
407
00:28:07,917 --> 00:28:09,236
Mmm.
408
00:28:09,397 --> 00:28:11,786
This is delicious.
409
00:28:11,957 --> 00:28:15,472
Well, enjoy it while you can.
That's the last of what we have.
410
00:28:15,637 --> 00:28:18,071
Then I am honoured.
411
00:28:18,237 --> 00:28:20,592
When McKay finds out, he's gonna kill me.
412
00:28:20,757 --> 00:28:23,032
- Athar will save you.
- Oh, good.
413
00:28:25,757 --> 00:28:27,748
Such wondrous things.
414
00:28:27,917 --> 00:28:32,195
I can't imagine wanting to do anything
but eat with such variety of foods.
415
00:28:32,357 --> 00:28:35,235
We manage
to pull ourselves away somehow.
416
00:28:35,397 --> 00:28:37,433
I've been learning much about Earth.
417
00:28:37,597 --> 00:28:40,270
Dr. Weir has got me
on your information machines.
418
00:28:40,437 --> 00:28:43,270
Elizabeth's got you
on a computer already, huh?
419
00:28:43,437 --> 00:28:45,712
I'm fascinated by your many religions.
420
00:28:45,877 --> 00:28:48,630
So many beliefs, so many philosophies.
421
00:28:48,797 --> 00:28:52,506
- Yeah, we got a few of those.
- So many contradictory faiths.
422
00:28:52,677 --> 00:28:55,589
Yeah, it's a bit of a mess.
423
00:28:56,917 --> 00:28:59,511
- More?
- Yes, please.
424
00:29:00,477 --> 00:29:02,866
We traded for grapes.
425
00:29:03,917 --> 00:29:07,910
The Athosians, Teyla's people,
they make this on the mainland.
426
00:29:08,677 --> 00:29:12,511
I wasn't completely truthful with you
about something.
427
00:29:15,797 --> 00:29:18,789
On Proculis, when I told you
I did not feel lonely...
428
00:29:20,117 --> 00:29:22,392
Coming here and being with you...
429
00:29:24,037 --> 00:29:26,835
...it reminded me
what it was like not to be alone.
430
00:29:33,677 --> 00:29:36,635
- What?
- Well, I mean, nothing.
431
00:29:36,797 --> 00:29:39,630
It's just that this is the first time
432
00:29:39,797 --> 00:29:43,506
I've been in a romantic situation
with a woman from another planet.
433
00:29:43,677 --> 00:29:45,793
It just strikes me as really, um...
434
00:29:45,957 --> 00:29:47,948
- Wrong?
- No! God, no.
435
00:29:48,117 --> 00:29:51,029
Just... funny.
436
00:29:51,997 --> 00:29:54,909
I'm sorry. I just thought that I would, uh...
437
00:29:55,757 --> 00:29:58,430
You said it yourself, we're both human.
438
00:29:58,597 --> 00:30:00,952
Yes, we are.
439
00:30:02,117 --> 00:30:06,235
And I'm really glad you didn't say "family",
otherwise I'd have to leave.
440
00:30:07,557 --> 00:30:09,548
Don't.
441
00:30:14,397 --> 00:30:16,786
I'm not going anywhere.
442
00:30:34,397 --> 00:30:35,796
Major.
443
00:30:35,957 --> 00:30:39,836
- Rodney. What are you doing up so late?
- I couldn't sleep.
444
00:30:39,997 --> 00:30:42,557
I was going to do a little research. You?
445
00:30:42,717 --> 00:30:45,675
- No, thanks.
- What were you doing up so late?
446
00:30:45,837 --> 00:30:47,873
I'm always up late, Rodney.
447
00:30:48,037 --> 00:30:52,394
A word of caution. The whole
Captain Kirk routine is problematic,
448
00:30:52,557 --> 00:30:54,627
let alone morally dubious.
449
00:30:54,797 --> 00:30:57,027
- Routine?
- Romancing the alien priestess.
450
00:30:57,197 --> 00:30:59,153
Very 1967 of you. I'm surprised...
451
00:30:59,317 --> 00:31:02,787
If and when anything I do
becomes your business...
452
00:31:02,957 --> 00:31:06,188
An alien woman
who is clearly not who she claims to be
453
00:31:06,357 --> 00:31:09,030
has you wrapped around her little finger.
454
00:31:09,197 --> 00:31:13,509
- Don't go there, McKay.
- I know I'm not normally Mr. Sensitive.
455
00:31:13,677 --> 00:31:15,952
But there is something about her.
456
00:31:16,117 --> 00:31:19,587
- It's intangible, but I can feel it.
- I said don't go there!
457
00:31:19,757 --> 00:31:23,147
It's just a matter of time
before I prove it, Major.
458
00:31:23,317 --> 00:31:26,150
I recommend that in the meantime,
you keep your...
459
00:31:43,997 --> 00:31:45,988
- Did you sleep last night?
- No.
460
00:31:46,157 --> 00:31:48,546
This is the data
from the biometric sensors.
461
00:31:48,717 --> 00:31:52,187
I can't tell you what
all these signatures mean, but look at this.
462
00:31:52,357 --> 00:31:55,872
These are ours and this is hers.
There's a distinct difference.
463
00:31:56,037 --> 00:31:58,756
She was born on another planet
in another galaxy.
464
00:31:58,917 --> 00:32:01,954
- They're different from Teyla's.
- It doesn't mean...
465
00:32:02,117 --> 00:32:06,747
- She's not what she seems to be.
- I sense an honest and spiritual person.
466
00:32:06,917 --> 00:32:09,829
All right. There may be a way to find out.
467
00:32:09,997 --> 00:32:12,875
You're opening negotiations with her?
Let me sit in.
468
00:32:13,037 --> 00:32:15,870
I'll pretend to take notes on the laptop
and scan her.
469
00:32:16,037 --> 00:32:18,756
Radiation, EM scans, energy signatures...
470
00:32:18,917 --> 00:32:22,830
That way, if I am crazy, you and I
are the only ones who need to know.
471
00:32:22,997 --> 00:32:25,795
- What's the harm?
- All right.
472
00:32:26,517 --> 00:32:29,077
- But be discreet.
- I'm Mr. Discreet.
473
00:32:32,357 --> 00:32:35,747
I'm impressed by most
of what I've read of Earth religions.
474
00:32:35,917 --> 00:32:39,227
The Torah, the Koran,
the Talmud, the Bible...
475
00:32:39,397 --> 00:32:42,787
Most reveal a diverse and deep desire
to grasp the divine.
476
00:32:42,957 --> 00:32:46,711
- So we have something to offer you.
- I've also read about your history.
477
00:32:46,877 --> 00:32:50,870
Even now, somewhere on your planet,
you are at war.
478
00:32:51,037 --> 00:32:53,028
Well, yeah, that's true.
479
00:32:53,197 --> 00:32:57,668
I made no attempt to hide that fact
from you. We are definitely not perfect.
480
00:32:57,837 --> 00:33:00,829
There's a lot about you as a people
I find disturbing.
481
00:33:00,997 --> 00:33:03,557
- Can that not be said of any people?
- No.
482
00:33:03,717 --> 00:33:06,356
Every soul in Proculis
is free from the hatred
483
00:33:06,517 --> 00:33:09,077
people from Earth
seem to feel for each other.
484
00:33:09,237 --> 00:33:12,832
- We're not all that bad. You know that.
- I do.
485
00:33:12,997 --> 00:33:19,186
I'm talking about every member
of my expedition team here in Atlantis
486
00:33:19,357 --> 00:33:23,350
and the friends we've met
since coming here, like Teyla's people.
487
00:33:23,517 --> 00:33:26,589
There are some among you,
yourself included, Dr. Weir,
488
00:33:26,757 --> 00:33:29,635
that I know Athar would welcome
with open arms.
489
00:33:29,797 --> 00:33:31,594
But there are others.
490
00:33:31,757 --> 00:33:34,317
I hand-picked
every member of this expedition,
491
00:33:34,477 --> 00:33:38,390
and I know Teyla feels as confident
about her own people.
492
00:33:38,557 --> 00:33:42,709
- I'm sure.
- This is a matter of trust.
493
00:33:42,877 --> 00:33:46,665
Yes. It is, Dr. Weir.
494
00:33:48,157 --> 00:33:51,911
Have your scans
found anything yet, Dr. McKay?
495
00:33:52,077 --> 00:33:54,113
Uh...
496
00:33:55,237 --> 00:33:57,228
Actually...
497
00:33:58,997 --> 00:34:00,510
...no.
498
00:34:00,677 --> 00:34:03,145
- What the hell is this?
- I'm sorry, Major.
499
00:34:03,317 --> 00:34:05,911
There was cause
for legitimate concern as to...
500
00:34:06,077 --> 00:34:08,386
Whether I was or not who I claimed to be.
501
00:34:08,557 --> 00:34:11,071
I'm sorry, Chaya.
I felt it would do no harm.
502
00:34:11,237 --> 00:34:13,626
Stop apologising, Elizabeth.
503
00:34:13,797 --> 00:34:15,594
- How did she know?
- McKay.
504
00:34:15,757 --> 00:34:18,032
- She's an Ancient, Major.
- She's what?
505
00:34:18,197 --> 00:34:22,748
I'm right, aren't I? The perfect health,
the energy weapon, she has the gene.
506
00:34:22,917 --> 00:34:27,195
- It's the only logical explanation.
- What the hell are you talking about?
507
00:34:27,357 --> 00:34:29,188
I just don't understand the act.
508
00:34:29,357 --> 00:34:33,828
You must know we'd give anything
to talk to you, to learn from you.
509
00:34:33,997 --> 00:34:37,592
What is it? Are you checking us out?
510
00:34:38,477 --> 00:34:41,992
In my desire to come to Atlantis,
I have revealed too much.
511
00:34:42,157 --> 00:34:44,671
- He's right?
- I'm right?
512
00:34:44,837 --> 00:34:47,795
I am what you call an Ancient,
513
00:34:47,957 --> 00:34:51,745
and it is also true that I can never
offer your people sanctuary.
514
00:34:51,917 --> 00:34:54,715
But you are wrong as to why I came here.
515
00:34:54,877 --> 00:34:57,107
Why did you come here?
516
00:34:57,277 --> 00:35:00,075
You, John.
517
00:35:00,237 --> 00:35:01,590
Me?
518
00:35:01,757 --> 00:35:05,432
I have lived in solitude for so long
that when you asked me to come...
519
00:35:05,597 --> 00:35:08,111
Oh, my God, he is Kirk.
520
00:35:08,277 --> 00:35:10,268
So this was never about...
521
00:35:12,957 --> 00:35:15,551
Could we just have a moment
to ourselves here?
522
00:35:15,717 --> 00:35:17,230
No.
523
00:35:17,397 --> 00:35:21,390
That's all right.
I've stayed here long enough.
524
00:35:29,277 --> 00:35:33,748
Come on. You and your people were
the reason we came here in the first place.
525
00:35:33,917 --> 00:35:35,908
I can't... I can't...
526
00:35:42,957 --> 00:35:44,754
No.
527
00:35:44,917 --> 00:35:47,147
What the hell was that?
528
00:35:47,317 --> 00:35:51,356
They're coming for them.
I should have never left them.
529
00:35:51,517 --> 00:35:53,633
What's going on?
530
00:35:53,797 --> 00:35:56,186
I'm sorry, John.
531
00:36:16,437 --> 00:36:18,712
I'm taking a jumper back to Proculis.
532
00:36:18,877 --> 00:36:22,313
- What just happened?
- There's only one way to find out.
533
00:36:22,477 --> 00:36:24,468
Go.
534
00:36:45,117 --> 00:36:47,472
Sure you know what you're flying into?
535
00:36:47,637 --> 00:36:50,026
The Wraith are attacking Chaya's people.
536
00:36:51,957 --> 00:36:54,517
You can't hope
to defend them with one ship!
537
00:36:54,677 --> 00:36:56,713
I don't think I'll have to.
538
00:37:33,037 --> 00:37:35,790
- What are you doing here?
- I'm here to help you.
539
00:37:35,957 --> 00:37:38,755
- Help me?
- To defend your people.
540
00:37:41,077 --> 00:37:45,195
Leave. I will take care of this.
541
00:38:24,517 --> 00:38:28,351
Is it Chaya or Athar? I'm just curious.
542
00:38:28,517 --> 00:38:32,271
When I was a mortal, I lived here.
This was my home.
543
00:38:32,437 --> 00:38:35,235
When those of us you call
the Ancients ascended,
544
00:38:35,397 --> 00:38:38,469
we were supposed to leave behind us
all human ties.
545
00:38:38,637 --> 00:38:41,071
Some of us found that difficult.
546
00:38:41,237 --> 00:38:44,513
You couldn't watch your people
get wiped out by the Wraith.
547
00:38:44,677 --> 00:38:49,273
When their fleet approached, I lashed out
with my mind and destroyed them all.
548
00:38:49,437 --> 00:38:54,511
The others of my kind
did not approve of such interference.
549
00:38:55,277 --> 00:38:57,586
And so I was exiled.
550
00:38:57,757 --> 00:39:01,796
My punishment was
the unending protection of this world.
551
00:39:06,757 --> 00:39:09,112
Why pretend to be human at all?
552
00:39:09,277 --> 00:39:12,394
So that, time to time,
I may walk among the people,
553
00:39:12,557 --> 00:39:15,788
know them as the good
and kind souls they are.
554
00:39:16,957 --> 00:39:20,347
For thousands of years,
I have come and gone to the villages,
555
00:39:20,517 --> 00:39:23,987
never staying too long
to get attached to anyone...
556
00:39:24,157 --> 00:39:26,113
until I met you.
557
00:39:27,677 --> 00:39:32,034
I have never regretted the choice I've made
all of these years... until now.
558
00:39:34,197 --> 00:39:37,269
I am permitted
to safeguard my people only.
559
00:39:37,437 --> 00:39:40,509
But this is my punishment.
560
00:39:40,677 --> 00:39:43,828
This is what makes it punishment.
561
00:39:43,997 --> 00:39:48,070
If your people came here for
my protection, the others would stop me.
562
00:39:48,237 --> 00:39:51,946
Do you understand?
I can never help your people.
563
00:39:54,477 --> 00:39:57,469
I'm not sure
I'm willing to walk away that easily,
564
00:39:57,637 --> 00:40:01,869
and I'm not just talking personally,
although that's definitely part of it.
565
00:40:03,677 --> 00:40:06,191
There is so much more
we can learn from you.
566
00:40:06,357 --> 00:40:09,110
I can't, John. The others won't allow it.
567
00:40:09,277 --> 00:40:12,269
- That's...
- It's their highest law to never interfere.
568
00:40:13,557 --> 00:40:17,709
I am bound by those laws,
however much I wish to help you.
569
00:40:18,677 --> 00:40:22,067
- So, we can never...
- I can never leave.
570
00:40:23,477 --> 00:40:25,468
Well, I could come and visit.
571
00:40:28,677 --> 00:40:31,714
Now I'm flirting with somebody
from another species.
572
00:40:31,877 --> 00:40:34,471
We're not as different as you think.
573
00:40:34,637 --> 00:40:36,912
We're more different than you think.
574
00:40:38,357 --> 00:40:40,996
I can show you.
575
00:40:41,157 --> 00:40:43,876
- Show me?
- By sharing each other.
576
00:40:45,037 --> 00:40:47,915
We will know each other
as well as anyone ever can.
577
00:40:49,117 --> 00:40:52,712
OK. I gotta get the car
back by midnight, though.
578
00:40:53,957 --> 00:40:56,073
This will only take a few moments.
579
00:40:58,117 --> 00:41:00,108
Just close your eyes.
580
00:41:09,557 --> 00:41:11,548
This is cool.
580
00:41:12,305 --> 00:41:18,598
