All language subtitles for Stargate SG-1 S01 E17 BluRay 10Bit 1080p AC3 HEVC-d3g

Whoa. None of this was going on
when we sent the probe through.

JACKSON: What's this stuff in the air?
TEAL'C: Ash.

O'NEILL: All right, Daniel, dial it up.
Get us out of here.

No argument.

Wait a minute.

There's something out there.

It's a woman. She's alive.
There's more. Hurry, you guys!

There's no life here.

This one's had it.

It's like Pompeii.

Everyone died of suffocation
before lava started to flow.

What are these things?

O'Neill, there are
two more alive.

Carter, how long
before we're toast?

I'm not a volcanologist.
It could be days or minutes.

(GROANS)

Don't...

help us.

MAN: Clear the way.
Give them some room.

Let's go.
You okay?

Yeah.

Colonel O'Neill,
what happened?

We encountered some very...

severe volcanic
activity, sir.

Who are all these people?
We don't really know, sir.

They were all dead
and dying around the gate.

The air was highly toxic.

And hot.

You'd better have Dr.
Frasier take a look at you.

We'll debrief when you're ready.
Yes, sir.

HAMMOND:You evacuated ten people
from an alien planet, Colonel.

Dr. Frasier says
they're all human,

and it looks like
they're going to live.

This was one hell
of a rescue operation.

Thank you.

There were no buildings
in the area of any kind?

No, sir. We don't know
how far they walked...

but it looked like they
were trying to make it

back to the Stargate.

What do we know about these
devices they were wearing?

They all emit low levels
of radiation,

indicating an operative
energy source.

But there is no circuitry,
moving parts or chips.

We've never seen
anything like it.

JACKSON: I thought at first they
were from a parallel culture...

but it looks like they
might be way ahead of us.

We've determined humans on other planets
originated here on Earth, right?

Yes.

Given our present state of technology,
could they be ahead of us?

JACKSON: Yes.

We'd be colonizing space right now
if it hadn't been for the Dark Ages.

There was a period of over 800 years
where science was heresy and anathema.

Maybe they didn't
have that setback.

General Hammond, the spokesman
for the rescued people is awake.

He'd like to speak with you.
All of you.

Who are you?

I'm Major General Hammond.
This is Colonel O'Neill.

Jack.
Samantha Carter.

Daniel Jackson.
What is this place?

You're on a planet called
Earth. These people saved you.

Nothing could be further
from the truth.

Unless I missed something,

you're better off here
than there.

There was a rescue transport
on the way.

Half your people were already dead. It
wouldn't have gotten there in time.

Perhaps that's more of a problem
for you than it was for us.

Beg your pardon?

I find it unbelievable
that anyone so primitive...

could've deciphered
the gate system.

Did you say "primitive"?

I too am from a world
very different from this one.

Here, life is highly valued.

Quite a statement for a Jaffa.

Sir, I'd like to
know who you are...

and what you know
about the Goa'uld.

I am Omoc.

Our world is called Tollan.

And what do you know
of the Goa'uld and Jaffa?

We're aware of them.
We don't interact with them.

Then we share a common enemy.

Did I mention an enemy?

I only meant it might
benefit everyone...

if your people and ours
could be friends.

I demand you return everything
you've taken from us

and allow us to go home.

It could take a while for those
volcanoes to quiet down.

In the meantime,
I'm a bit of a culture buff.

I'd like to learn about
your history and customs.

I've said enough.
I'll say no more.

Captain Carter, I want you to monitor
the situation on Tollan very closely.

As soon as it's safe there,
I want those people gone.

Yes, sir.

New hobby?
Neat, huh?

Miniature UAV, with all
the bells and whistles.

I'm adding heat sensors so I can
send it through the gate to Tollan.

I was just down in the infirmary
with one of the Tollan...

trying to get
them to talk to us.

They only ask questions,
never answer them.

As a matter of fact, one of them was
asking a lot of questions about you.

I thought they weren't
interested in us.

I didn't say "us."
I said "you."

Hammond thinks you'll have better
luck getting some answers.

He'd like to see you.

Okay.

I was hoping he would
open up to you...

a bit more than
Dr. Jackson or myself.

You remember Narim?
Yes, from the planet.

You were
a lot dirtier then.

Um...

Captain Carter--
Or is it Doctor?

Just make it Samantha.

You may call me Narim.

HAMMOND: Captain Carter,

Mr. Narim seems very
interested in our planet.

I thought maybe you'd
like to escort him up

to the surface to have a look.

Really?

I would be very pleased
to have that opportunity.

As long as
you give me your word

you'll stay
with Captain Carter.

You have my word.

Great. Let's go. Sir.

I wanted to tell you
that I'm glad to be alive.

So are the others.
Good.

Thank you. And please
tell your friends.

You can tell
them yourself.

No, I can't. I shouldn't
be talking to you.

Why not?

Back on Tollan,
I thought I was dying.

I heard your voice and
managed to open my eyes.

When I saw you--

What?
(CHUCKLES)

An old superstition. There was a
time before reason and science...

when my ancestors believed
in all manner of nonsense.

Like the Sher-Mal.

The story goes that if a Sher-Mal
appears at the moment of death...

she will take you to her
dwelling in the stars.

We call them "angels."

Then you still
believe in them?

Some of us do.

Ours were reported
to be quite beautiful.

And when I saw you...

well, you seemed
to fit the description.

And then I learned from Dr. Jackson
that you're also a brilliant scientist.

I'm afraid I ask
quite a few questions.

Curiosity.

It's a quality Omoc
doesn't seem to share.

Can you tell me something
about your world?

Of course.

(BIRD SCREECHES)

A flying animal.

Yeah.We call them "birds."

Are there other animals?

Millions of them.

There have been none
on Tollan for generations.

Well, I could bring
you pictures, if you'd like.

I would like that very much,
thank you.

But I think it would be best
if Omoc didn't know.

Why?

Omoc is not as
harsh as he seems.

He is only trying
to protect us and you.

From what?

Perhaps--

Perhaps we should go back.

Okay.

HARRIMAN:
Chevron six, engaged.

Chevron seven, locked.

CARTER: Launching
UAv in ten seconds.

Nine, eight, seven...

six, five, four...

three, two, one.

Yeah.
CARTER: Successful launch.

UAV is holding course
in the Wormhole.

Should reach the Tollan gate
in three...

two, one.

(COMPUTER BEEPING)

Temperature, ground:
1,700 degrees Fahrenheit.

Air seems to be
in pockets...

ranging from 1,500 degrees
down to 200.

Sounds like L.A.

CARTER: If the heat doesn't
get you, the atmosphere will.

It's mostly pyroclastics,
basalt, ash.

A person could suffocate
very quickly.

How long before
it cools down?

I don't know.
Not anytime soon.

It doesn't matter anyway.

That lava's flowing
straight toward the gate.

Computer predicts that
at the current rate...

the gate will be buried
in a couple of days.

Looks like we've got
some guests for a while.

Are you absolutely certain?

Yes. I'm sorry.

(SIGHS)

Then nature succeeded
where we failed.

What?

You were going
to seal the gate?

Tollan is a world
in cataclysm.

The evacuation was complete.
My team stayed to--

Our final task
was to close the gate...

so that no one could return
and be harmed.

Wherever you were going, we can
recalibrate the coordinates from here.

The new settlement world
is outside the gate system.

We'll need a ship.

We don't have ships.

Not that kind, anyway.

Our space program
is relatively new.

The bottom line here is, your
survivors have become refugees.

If they don't wanna be here, we've
got to relocate them somewhere.

You know, we have done some
fairly good deeds out there.

Maybe we should try
calling in some markers.

Okay.

Colonel, you and Teal'c
follow up on that.

Pay a visit
to some of our old friends.

Captain Carter,
I want you and Dr. Jackson...

to get the multipurpose room on
5C readied as a refugee center.

Yes, sir.

As an act of good faith, we're returning
the devices you were wearing.

They are not weapons. That's
what our technicians thought.

So you had them tested?

Not much of an
act of good faith.

Actually, we couldn't figure
out exactly what they were.

I want to assure you we're doing all
we can to relocate your people.

Are we to have
some say in the matter?

Self-determination is a concept
that's very important to us.

We'll do our best.
In the meantime...

we'll make you as
comfortable as possible.

But I want you to understand you're
restricted to the immediate premises.

Are we prisoners?

Absolutely not.

But you are from
an alien environment.

It's as much for your
safety as for ours.

Hey.

How you doing?

It may sound ridiculous, but I have
no idea what to do with these items.

Well, our sleeping
platforms...

adjust automatically
to our body temperature.

They don't come
with accoutrements.

It's okay, I'll show you.

I brought you some things
to take a look at.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Uh...

You might like
to see this first.

(MEOWS)
(NARIM CHUCKLES)

I never thought I'd see
a living animal.

His name's Schrodinger.

It's kind of a joke, really.

His name, that is.
Schrodinger's cat.

Oh?

See, there was
an Earth physicist

by the name of
Erwin Schrodinger.

He had this
theoretical experiment.

Put a cat in a box...

add a can of poisoned gas
activated by the decay

of a radioactive atom...

and close the box.

Sounds like a cruel man.

It was just a theory.
He never really did it.

He said that if he did do it,
at any one instant...

the cat would be both dead
and alive at the same time.

Equilibrium physics.

An atom's state is
indeterminate until measured

by an outside observer.

We call it quantum physics.
You know the theory.

Yeah, I've studied it...

among other misconceptions
of elementary science.

Misconceptions?

Are you telling me you guys
have licked quantum physics?

Omoc.

I'll come back and
help you with this later.

I did not tell her anything.

We've set up a meeting
with Tuplo for 0800 tomorrow.

Colonel O'Neill
was correct.

Many of the worlds we've visited
are eager to be of service.

People,
we have a problem.

Your refugees
seem to have escaped.

CARTER: Escaped? How'd
they get past the guards?

You can ask them that
when you find them.

(BARKING)

MAN: They're over here!

Hold fire!

We were merely
observing the stars.

Well, you're all gonna
have to come back in now.

So we are prisoners?

And idea how they got
past the guards, sir?

The surveillance video
in the multipurpose room...

was exposed to some sort of interference
just as the escape was taking place.

Convenient. Can the
video be salvaged?

Maybe computer enhanced?
We're trying now.

In the meantime, we should
get this show on the road.

Tuplo.
Good to see you.

General Hammond,
before we begin...

I wish to thank you for allowing me to
be the first visitor to your Earth...

from the Land of Light.

It is indeed an honor.

My Lord Omoc,
the Land of Light...

is a world
of eternal brightness

where fertility abounds.

Our farms produce
rich harvests.

Our rivers are blessed
with fish and fowl.

We would be honored to share
our land with your people.

You have no idea
who or what we are.

We know that
you're in need...

and that you are here
among those

who have proven
themselves our friends.

That is enough.

You're missing the point.

His planet
is unacceptable to us.

These people are
even more primitive than you.

CARTER: Narim, can you tell
me why Omoc is so- you know.

Obstinate?
Yeah.

The nearest planet in our solar
system was called Sarita.

When we began
to explore space...

we learned
she was inhabited.

Did you make contact?
Yes...

when we thought they were
sufficiently advanced.

They were on a level
very similar to yours.

So what happened?

We offered them a device...

to produce unlimited,
productive energy.

And they used it to make war.

How bad was it?

In one rotation of our planet,
they had destroyed theirs.

One day?

The destruction shifted our
planet's orbit .3 decana...

enough to begin a chain of events
that made our world unstable.

So that would explain
why he's so afraid...

to give a society like ours
any of your technology.

Yes.

Tell me, what were you really
doing outside last night?

Omoc spoke the truth.

By studying the position
of your stars...

we were able to calibrate the distance
between Earth and the new home world.

It is very far away,
Samantha.

Too far to hope for a
ship in our lifetime.

Have you ever thought about
staying here on Earth?

I would gladly stay.

If only to spend more time with a
certain inhabitant of this planet.

I speak, of course,
of Schrodinger.

(BOTH LAUGH)

Our escape was a test.

You did exactly
what I knew you would do.

You used threat and force
to solve your problem.

You didn't give us
any other choice.

You could have
come for us unarmed.

You haven't exactly behaved
like someone I want to trust.

I'm not gonna
put my team at risk.

And I will not risk
my people in your care.

Look, Omoc,
if you're so advanced...

why don't you let your people
decide for themselves?

Narim, this is
a free country.

Every year...

we take in
thousands of refugees

fleeing repression.

If you request asylum,

you can stay here
no matter what Omoc wants.

You don't care anything
about Narim's rights.

You only want our technology,
nothing more.

As a matter of fact,
I wouldn't mind knowing

how you got out
of this place.

Technically speaking,
of course.

You don't need
to know how.

Only that we did.

And we can do it again
any time we need to.

Colonel, General Hammond would like
to see you and your team right away.

Thank you.

We've augmented the surveillance
video from the multipurpose room...

and some of the corridors
with computer enhancement.

You're not
gonna believe this.

Whoa. Cool.

But totally impossible.

Only from a perspective of our
limited science, apparently.

We have similar video
of them passing through

an elevator door...

and a wall
on ground level.

This is knowledge far
beyond that of the Goa'uld.

That's exactly what the president
and joint chiefs want to hear.

Colonel Mayborne, sir. NID.

Intelligence? What
happened to Kennedy?

Promoted.
I took his place.

Promoted?
Talk about failing upwards.

Colonel O'Neill.

I read about your conflict
with Colonel Kennedy

in his report.

I assure you, such an
attitude will not prevail

with me in either direction.

I sense that.

Good.

Would you mind telling me exactly
why you're here, Colonel?

You didn't get my advance?

That's an order releasing
the Tollans to our section.

You're to be congratulated. The
Stargate program is finally paying off.

This was quite a coup.
JACKSON: Excuse me?

These are people
we're talking about.

These people do
have rights, you know.

Do they? Under what
nation’s jurisdiction?

How about
basic human rights?

I can't release them to you.

I beg your pardon?

I don't believe
the president...

meant to release these people until
they've been through quarantine.

We don't have any idea what kinds
of diseases they might be carrying.

You're out of your league here.
We're playing in my ballpark now.

And I have the full authority
of the president.

So do I, Colonel.

Why don't you ask the airman outside
to show you to our guest quarters.

That's okay.
I'll wait.

That wasn't an invitation.

It was an order, Colonel.

O'NEILL: General?

Didn't Dr. Frasier give the
Tollans a clean bill of health?

Just don't let her
tell Mayborne that.

At most, I've bought
us a day, people.

Find me some alternatives.

You're a good man.

Then it doesn't matter
if I ask for asylum?

Mayborne would love that, but you'd
be working for him on his terms.

Then Omoc is correct. Your people
will use our knowledge for war.

It's not us. We are dealing with
another part of our government...

one that specializes
in chronic paranoia.

Like Sarita.
It's going to happen again.

It doesn't have to.
That's why I'm here.

lam hoping that
you can convince Omoc...

to consider one of the other
planets we've presented.

It's no use.
He's right.

They're all as primitive or
more primitive than you are.

I wish you would
stop calling us primitive.

I'm sorry.

I only meant technologically.

You are anything
but primitive.

What your mind doesn't know,

your heart fills in.

I don't know what that means
exactly, but it's beautiful.

Which is exactly
what it means.

JACKSON: Just what exactly do you
hope to get from these people?

For one, superior weapons.

They won't cooperate,
you know.

I assure you, they will.

I just hung up from
talking to the president.

I guess Mr. Mayborne has been
talking to him recently.

I did tell you
I had his ear.

Colonel Mayborne has full authorization
to relocate the Tollans immediately.

Of course he does.

Where will you take them?

To a secure community
here in the Rockies.

Nice little community with high walls,
guards, maybe a little barbed wire.

They're a valuable asset.
They need to be protected.

Nice, forced,
intellectual labor.

And life imprisonment.

These aliens will live a better
life than most Americans.

They'll have a great view,
the best food...

every convenience,
everything they need.

Everything except a life.

The Pentagon, Intelligence,
that I can understand.

But the president?
I voted for him!

Have the Tollans ready for
transport at 0600 tomorrow.

Okay, Colonel. Want to
tell me why I'm here?

Because Mayborne isn't, sir.

We wanted to talk to you about
what we could do...

to keep Mayborne
from taking the Tollan.

General, we must ensure
the Tollans' escape.

I can't let you do that.
We'd all be court-martialed.

I'm about a hair away
from not caring.

However, Daniel--

I can't be
court-martialed, sir.

The one you call Mayborne was
here questioning my people.

He wanted us to take some sort of test.
And you expect me to trust you?

Mayborne is from another
division of our government.

We're trying to protect you.

You're not doing
a very good job.

No, apparently not.

Do you have a new place
for us to go?

Well, no.

Then we have
nothing else to say.

I do know a perfect place you could go.
I just don't know how to get you there.

Then why do
you speak of it?

I was kind of hoping maybe you'd
have the technology to get there.

This is another trick to gain
access to our technology.

There was a planet we went to where
people were as advanced as you.

Maybe even more advanced.
They were called the Nox.

If you went there,
why can't we?

Because they felt about us
kind of like you do.

They called us very young, which is
more polite than calling us primitive.

Anyway, they sealed
their Stargate.

I don't know how to communicate
with them to get it open.

Do you know
where this planet is?

I have the coordinates
right here.

Then we must go back
to the mountaintop.

Really?

I can't. I can't
get you out of here.

That's not a problem.

Right. But I have
to go with you.

Give me your hand.

What?

Do you wish
to come or not?

(BEEPING)

The coordinates.

(DEVICE POWERING UP)

Listen, I'm no astronomer,
but won't that take...

thousands of years
to reach the Nox world?

Why would it?
That’s just a laser, right?

I mean, light takes along
time to travel that far.

The distance between
these two points...

seems far...

until you do this.

Okay, I remember this
from college physics.

One of our scientists, Einstein,
explained this the same way.

You were talking about
actually folding space.

No.

You wouldn't understand.

No, I guess not.

I just hope the Nox do.

MAN: Samantha?

Narim?

Hello.

Oh, my God.
How do you do that?

Very carefully.

(CHUCKLES)

I have come to say good-bye.
We'll be leaving soon.

So you think
Daniel's plan will work?

Either way,
I will be leaving.

However,
I will go reluctantly.

Why?

Because as of tonight,
we will never meet again.

Oh, come on.

You'll forget about me
in a heartbeat.

I thought you felt that way.

That is why
I brought you this.

What is it?

You have audio and visual
recording devices, yes?

Yeah.

This one records emotions.

My feelings for you.

I have worn it
each time we were together.

How does it work?

Touch the red triangle.

(DEVICE POWERING UP)

Then close your eyes.

I don't know what to say.

We have a custom...

that expresses
more than words.

We have that custom too.

Whoops.

Sorry.

We gotta do
some stuff in here.

Actually, I need your help.

You should probably get going.

Don't forget Schrodinger.

Thank you.

Now, I'll need at least
one unit of escorts

in the rear transport.

(KNOCKING AT DOOR)

Come.

General Hammond, sir...

the refugees,
they've disappeared.

What do you mean, disappeared?

I mean, like, poof, sir.
They went through the walls.

I told you to keep
guards inside the room

to keep that from happening!

We were inside the room.

I stood in their path myself.

And?

They went right through me.

(ALARM BLARES)

MAN ON PA: Attention,
all personnel.

Off-world activation,
unknown source.

What the hell's going on?

The mainframes having
a nervous breakdown.

Oh, no, the iris
is failing!

Why is the blast door down?
Get it up!

What are they doing?
How did they get here?

The gate's dialing.
Chevron six, engaged.

Dr. Jackson,
this is Colonel Mayborne.

What you're doing is
a court-martialable offense.

He's not in the military.

And I think it'd be kind of tough to
find a civilian law to cover this.

I'll have you removed from this
program forever if you do this!

HARRIMAN:
Chevron seven is locked.

Wherever you send them,
we'll hunt them down!

We're not sending
them anywhere.

The gate was
activated off-world.

Someone is sending for them.

Who?

Hello.

Hello, Lya.

All personnel in the gate room,
this is Colonel Mayborne.

I have a presidential order
to take the aliens with me.

Do not let them pass.

Use force if necessary.

LYA: Your race
has learned nothing.

But you have.

The Tollans are most welcome
to join the Nox. Please come.

Narim was right about you.

Perhaps in time,
we'll meet again.

(MEOWS)

Stop!

Take one more step and I'll be
forced to have them open fire.

Come.

Fire! Fire!

God, I love those people.

You did good, Daniel.

What of Mayborne?
He's not a happy camper.

There'll be hell to pay when
he gets back to Washington.

What?

Oh,just thinking what the little guy
with the funny hair once told us.

"The very young do not
always do as they're told."

Yeah.
