I've never seen so much nothing.

I've never walked
so far to see it.

How was I to know the only structures
would be around the Stargate?

There's the gate. Dial it up.

The energy readings here are
the same as they were a mile away.

I think we should
stay for a while.

I thought you hated these suits.

I do, but the
readings are amazing.

It's all around us.

Yet you cannot explain it.

Not yet.

You can't figure out
a way we can use it?

Not yet.

Let's call it a mission.

There's such a thing
as pure science.

Not everything has to be useful.

You said the energy
readings indicated

the presence of a civilisation.

There are no buildings, no
people, no nothing. Just fog.

It's not technically fog. There's
no water vapour in the atmosphere.

And I don't think we need
to wear the Hazmat gear.

Now you tell me.

Dial the gate.

Let's move out.

Wait. Hold on.

You wanted useful?

What are you talking about?

When the wormhole connected
there was a wild fluctuation.

It looks like the gate is actually
drawing power from the atmosphere.

So this field goes on for miles.

It may envelop the planet.
It's a lot of energy.

How much is a lot?

In terms of joules or ergs?

In terms of lots.

Well, lots and lots.

Enough to open a
wormhole back to earth.

I thought only the Atlantis
gate could dial earth.

Yes. It has an
additional control crystal

allowing an eighth
chevron to lock.

Probably a security measure.

It doesn't matter.

With the crystal, I can
make the other gate work.

You're suggesting we remove it
from our dhd and bring it to m5s-224?

Yes. Isntthatnsky?

I'll be fine.

She means in terms
of breaking our gate.

The control crystal is
useless without enough power.

You said you didn't know
where the energy comes from.

I believe it is being
generated in the atmosphere.

The fog? Yes.

You said it wasn't fog.

Whatever it is.

How do you know?

I don't.

But the fog is the only thing around
and the energy readings were constant.

Ok, even if you
can pull this off,

we have to assume the earth
gate lacks a power source

capable of establishing
a wormhole to Pegasus.

Whoever went would be taking
the risk of it being a one-way trip.

Someone will volunteer.

You?

I would only go if I knew there was
a good chance I could come back.

We can send a message to
Stargate command that we're okay.

We've gathered a lot of intel.

We should send it.

If we can.
Even if it's over a radio.

All right. That's it.

How easy is it to put
that in the other dhd?

The Atlantis's dhd is unique.
There isn't an empty slot waiting.

Meaning?

It may require some disassembly.

You wanna take the dhd apart?

I'll put it back together.

Don't you risk
disabling the other Stargate?

Only if I screw up,
which is extremely unlikely.

840 years.

What?

How long it will take us to
come get you by puddle jumper.

But you would do that, right?

Of course.

It won't be necessary. However,
I may require some assistance.

Major?

Lieutenant?

Yes, sir.

Atlantis, this is McKay.

Go ahead.

We're ready to begin
work on the dhd.

You're sure about this?

Positive.
We'll deliver good news.

Good luck.

Back in time for supper.

Right.

Let's get started.

Come in.

Hi. Do you have a moment?

Yeah, sure.

War and peace.
That's some heavy reading.

Back on earth when I was
getting ready for this mission,

I realised I might
be here for a while,

so I figured, "why not bring along
a book that takes a while to read?"

Page 17?

I'm right on schedule.

Hm. It's kind of what
I wanted to talk to you about.

Home. Going home.

McKay's right.

If this works and we establish
a wormhole back to earth...

If this conversation is going where I
think, you can put your mind at rest.

I'm not going anywhere.
I haven't read my book.

Look, all I'm saying is that you
are the person who is best qualified

to brief general Hammond and
the others about the wraith threat.

Well, maybe so, but I
think I'm needed here.

Good.

But if you wanna go,
I understand.

Are you saying
I'm not needed here?

I said I'd understand.

Well, thank you,
but I made a commitment.

Of course, in all fairness, life-sucking
aliens weren't part of the brochure.

Regardless, I'm staying.

Good.

Wouldn't be
the same without you.

Would you want to go back?

It doesn't matter what I want.

Why not?

Atlantis can't
afford to lose me.

I'm their expert in gate theory, wormhole
physics and a myriad of other sciences.

I'd love to see my grandma.
She thinks I'm in Afghanistan.

Whoever goes should command
the respect of the sgc,

have the Patience and knowledge
to bring them up to speed

and find a way to bring
the cavalry back.

You're saying you're
invaluable everywhere.

It would create
a void if I went,

but you'll know that I'll be
spearheading the effort to return

with reinforcements, fresh
supplies and big macs for all.

I feel better already.

Yeah. Good.

Good.

Major Sheppard, have we
heard back from dr McKay?

Not yet.

Word of the discovery
has spread.

I've noticed.

It is to be expected,

faced with the prospect
of being reunited

with loved ones, returning home.

Yeah, I'd love to go back.

You would consider
leaving Atlantis?

If I knew I could gate back
here, I'd go in a heartbeat.

It would be good
to see your world.

You could help
with the briefing.

I would like that.

You know about
the Pegasus galaxy.

Then there's those cool earth
things: Football, Ferris wheels.

Do you remember the last
of the popcorn we ate?

We could get more.

If we knew we could return.

Unscheduled activation.

It's a radio transmission
from dr McKay.

Rodney?

Elizabeth. I'm done.

The component's
installed in the dhd...

Well done.

What about the energy readings?

Same as before.

The gate's drawing power
from the atmosphere.

Ok, you stay put.
We're on our way.

Right.

So, are we ready?

What's there to be ready for?

It's a big moment and we haven't
been in contact for some time...

Hooray.

Go ahead.

Please work.

Stargate command, this is dr
Elizabeth Weir of the Atlantis expedition.

Do you read?

I repeat, this is dr
Weir. Come in, please.

This is sergeant harriman
of Stargate command.

Whoever you are,
this better not be a joke.

No joke, sergeant. I'm sending
my personal idc for confirmation.

Sorry. We 're just a little
surprised to be hearing from you.

Understandable.

The Iris is open.
Clear to come through.

Thanks, but we're not ready
to risk a one-way trip.

Doctor, things have
changed around here.

The asgard are fitting prometheus
with engines that can reach other galaxies.

We were Manning a mission to
find out what happened to you.

Is he serious?

Are you serious?

Yes, ma 'am.

Come through now and you could
be back in Pegasus inside of a month.

Well, who's going?

Welcome back to earth.

While the Pegasus galaxy
does hold many dangers,

I feel its potential
rewards justify the risk

of maintaining a continued
presence on the Atlantis base.

Your preliminary report has given
the Pentagon cause for concern.

If the wraith are as
powerful as you say,

they are an enemy even more
dangerous than the Goa'uld.

Some say it would be prudent to cut our
losses and abandon the Pegasus galaxy.

You can't...

This is a race that
defeated the ancients.

Over the years, Stargate command

has encountered
a number of threats

that could well have
destroyed this world.

That never stopped you from
continuing to send teams through the gate.

By the time sg-i had returned from their
first mission, the damage had been done.

We'd already alerted
the Goa'uld to our presence.

In the case of the wraith,
however, we have a choice.

So we're just going
to turn tail and run?

The Pentagon would prefer
to call it a strategic withdrawal.

How can we be sure
they won't come after us?

They feed on human life forms.
They know there's a smorgasbord here.

I don't think we have a choice.

We need to explore
the opportunities

for technological
advancement in Pegasus.

Not to mention
our responsibility

to the other humans
who live there.

Responsibility?

We did wake up the wraith.

While that would have happened
eventually without our interference,

our access to ancient
technology puts us

in a unique position
to help those people.

We can't just walk away.

Rest assured your recommendation

will be considered
at the highest level.

General, sir.

Thank you, sir.

Major Sheppard.

I'm surprised the
briefing went so quickly.

You were very thorough, major.

Thank you, sir.

I thought you'd be enjoying
some well-deserved r & r.

I was going to arrange
some transportation.

Consider it done.
Anywhere you like.

That's very generous.

You've done your country a
great service. You deserve it.

Thank you, sir.

Well, how's our patient doing?

We're all done, major.
She's free to go.

I was afraid
you had abandoned me.

Just setting up ournde.

So, where are we going?

We should start by
getting you a new outfit.

Hello, Simon.

My god. When did you...

I missed you.

You have no new messages.

Huh. Must have been a
power failure or something.

Anyways...

There is nothing wrong
with your television set.

Do not attempt to
adjust the picture.

We are controlling
the transmission.

We will bring up
the volume or whisper.

Thank you, major.

You're welcome.

I have traded in many
market-places on many worlds...

Countries. Countries.

Yes, of course. Countries.

But here there are so many
different items to choose from.

You seemed like you were
having fun. Hours and hours of fun.

But you have picked
out a nice outfit.

Thank you.

I wonder if we had never
suffered the wraith,

would my people have created
a civilisation such as this?

I'm starting to wonder
about a few things myself.

What?

Nothing feels wrong to you?

I don't mean one thing,
I mean everything.

I do not understand.

Excuse me, could you take us
to the green moss park area?

Sure thing.

Thank you.

I think I'll have a better idea of
what's bothering me once we get there.

Hey, sedge! Did you
miss me? Did you miss me?

More than you can imagine.

I don't know how many times I
watched that damn tape you left me.

I wanted to tell you in person.

No, you didn't.

You were afraid
I'd talk you out of it.

I was afraid you'd try.

When you said you couldn't say where
you were going, my first guess was Korea.

My second guess was Israel.

To be honest, the Pegasus
galaxy didn't make my list.

I am sorry.

I know.

I imagine my security clearance
doesn't let you tell me what you did.

Or when you'll be leaving again?

At the very least
you could promise me that

you'll take this with you.

Simon.

It's beautiful.

Looks nice.

Thank you.

Is something wrong?

No, I'm sorry.
Just when you kissed me...

What are you talking
about, Elizabeth?

Hello.

General. What...

Yes, I understand. Thank you.

Hang on.

Oh, hey. I was in the middle of a
power nap and I'm not wearing any pants.

I didn't think you knew
where I lived.

Aumme

right.

Look, I can't really...

I have a date
with a girl in 302.

She's been taking care
of the cat while I was away.

Apparently she misses me.

Rodney.

I know, trying to pawn my cat off
on a neighbour and I end up with...

What?

I got a call from
general Hammond.

There was an accident
on the prometheus.

We can't go back to Atlantis.

I was just gonna come home,
unwind, then start work on a solution.

An hour ago it hit me,
like Archimedes in the bath.

Except I wasn't in the bath.
I was on the couch watching...

Dr McKay.

Forget prometheus.

I have figured out how to establish a
wormhole connection back to Pegasus.

I'm gonna need the zpm.

It's been depleted.

No. Last time it had to establish and
maintain a wormhole back to Atlantis.

This time it just needs enough
energy to establish a brief connection.

My calculation is
approximately 3.5 microseconds.

That hardly seems enough...

When we set foot on m5s-224
before the wormhole shut down,

I picked up energy fluctuations.

I assumed it was an effect of the
gate's residual energy signature.

But that can't account
for the variances.

There's one explanation. The gate
must have been energised on our arrival.

It doesn't just drop power on
outgoing wormholes, but incoming ones.

We just have to make a
connection. 3.5 microseconds.

The minimum amount of time to
confirm a lock before the gate kicks in.

You'll forgive me, doctor. This
all seems a little far-fetched.

Think of it like calling someone
who will accept the charges.

All you have to do is dial.

I'm sorry, doctor.

You won't lose anything
by letting me try.

I just want to run
a couple of tests.

All right. I'll have the
zpm delivered to the lab.

Thank you.

Dr Weir, I wasn't
expecting to see you.

I've been thinking about
what happened. Thank you.

I know it's a setback, but I
don't think we should give up yet.

If we get the
prometheus repaired...

She was severely damaged.

We lost 20 crew members. She
won't be flying again anytime soon.

So we ask the asgard
for one of their ships.

I'm sure that when the asgard
are in a position to help, they will.

General, I only came to earth because
I was assured I'd be able to get back.

I am not about to abandon
my expedition team.

I'll see what I can do, but
I'm not making any promises.

You gotta talk to somebody
about this for me.

Sorry. If those are the orders
you received, it's out of my hands.

I can't abide sloppy work.

Your people must
double-check their results.

Dr McKay. Yes, lieutenant.

I'm being transferred.

Congratulations.

I was with my parents and a sergeant
shows up with new orders for me.

They wanna ship me
back to Antarctica.

Do you know something
that I don't?

Last time I checked,
the prometheus was damaged

and our only zpm couldn't
even run a car stereo.

I thought you'd
find another way.

There is no other way.

You're gonna have
to deal with it.

Thank you.

Would it be so bad
if you had to stay?

I'm sorry, Simon. I know
none of this is fair to you.

It is tough to compete with the
greatest adventure in human history.

I don't blame you for going.

Thank you.

But I still feel guilty. And now
I feel guilty about being back.

Because of the
people you left behind?

No. I should have
stayed at Atlantis.

Major Sheppard should
have been the one to go.

Oh, yeah.

Just like I left it.

So much space
for just one person.

Well, a guy's gotta
have a lot of space.

I bet there's still...

Perfect.

Nice and cold.

And this is...

It's called beer.

Is all this for recreation?

Yeah. I got pretty much
everything you can imagine, don't I?

What is it?

I was just thinking again

about dr Weir and
everyone else on Atlantis.

Of course.
I am sure she is fine.

As I am sure they are all fine.

Yeah. I'm sure.

You have those test
results for me yet?

We need more time.

What are you talking about?
Let's see what you got.

Wait a minute. What is
this, some kind of a joke?

I told you we need more time.

These don't make any sense.

We don't think the zpm
can open the wormhole.

You wouldn't know that from
this. It's complete gibberish.

Get outta here. I'll do it.

You've got to be kidding me.

Thank you for coming in again.

Was there a response
to my request?

We won't need help
from the asgard.

It turns out dr McKay has discovered
how to open a wormhole back to Pegasus.

He has? Why wasn't I informed?

Doctor, the Atlantis mission
has been reassessed.

What does that mean?

In light of your intelligence
concerning the wraith,

it's been decided that the Atlantis
presence should be military.

Our allies have agreed to this?

They did.

As soon as dr McKay
can establish a wormhole,

we intend to send reinforcements
along with a new commanding officer.

I'm sorry, doctor, but you've
been relieved of your duties.

Okay, wait. I am not saying there shouldn't
be an increased military presence,

but the mission
must remain the same,

and if major Sheppard
were here...

We've spoken to major Sheppard.

He dialled in to check
on your progress.

We informed him of the
situation and he agrees with us.

He wouldn't do that, general.
I know John Sheppard.

Apparently you don't know
him as well as you thought.

He stated categorically it's the only
way to ensure the security of the project.

Let's get outta here.

You wanna see earth?
It's out there.

I thought you'd want to spend
time in your home. Visit with friends.

There is an idea.

Mitch. Dex.

You didn't think you could pass
through town without seeing us?

You gonna invite us in or what?

Yeah, sure. What the hell.

All right! Hi, I'm Dex.

What is this?

Is there a problem?

Elizabeth.

Rodney, I need to talk to you.

Can it wait?

No. Something is
very wrong here.

I ran a diagnostic on the zpm. These
are the results I keep getting back.

I'm not a scientist.

Neither's anyone else here.

The laws of physics
have flown out the window.

Problem with your equipment?

I checked. It's fine.

If your solution doesn't
work, it's not your fault.

Vvewlhave to accept the
fact that we can't go back.

What?

Our boys were pinned down. Hotshot here
takes his chopper right over this bridge.

We're supposed to follow him.

I'm not flying over enemy tanks.

Over what? Tanks.

You're welcome. Ha-ha!

I still love that, man!

Yeah, that was priceless.

But we got that special ops
team out of there, didn't we, shep?

Yes, we did.

That was some flying, shep.

Look who's in
the pizza business.

No, sir. I caught
the guy on the way up.

I was thinking
about you. Come in.

Looks like we
are having a party.

Yes.

I got pizza.

All right!

I've been relieved
of my command.

Oh. I'm sorry.

They're gonna
militarize Atlantis.

Interesting. It was bound
to happen sooner or later.

So, you're okay with this?

How did you expect them
to react about the wraith?

I thought I'd be
kept in the loop.

Why don't you go home,
spend some time with Simon?

Simon?

He's important to you, isn't he?

Yes. I just don't remember
ever telling you that.

Well, how else
would I have known?

We didn't know what to think.

This guy was supposedly one of the
most ruthless warlords in Afghanistan

and he sits at our table.

Sir, you gotta hear this.

I was there.

Yeah, you remember. Turns out he
wants to practise his English on us.

Shep spent half the
night talking to him.

Yeah, that was funny.

He wouldn't even
let you go to the bathroom.

Then two days later you
guys were killed outside Kabul.

These results say this reality
isn't governed by any natural laws.

It's like looking at a cell culture and
seeing a thousand dancing hamsters.

Rodney, you need to calm down.

No, I need to get agitated.

I'm realising all of this is a
lie. This and this and this!

What are you saying?

Your chopper took an rpg.

There was barely enough left
to bring back for a funeral.

What?

You guys have been
dead for years.

Don't get me wrong,
it's really nice seeing you.

You too, miss Watson.

Sir...

She was my sixth-grade teacher.

I don't remember your name but
I remember you wouldn't date me.

Shep, I think you
should see a doctor.

Oh, really?

You're acting pretty strange.

I'm acting strange, huh?

Major!

Now you see what I mean?

The McKay I know

would never accept the
militarization of Atlantis without a fight.

I don't think major Sheppard would
agree to it without speaking to me.

You shouldn't take it personally.
Think of it like a blessing.

You have a life. You
can get back to it now.

No. I'm not buying this any
more. Who are you really?

Who am I? What do you mean?

You shot me!

You're already dead!

Sir, give me...

I'm beginning to have my doubts
about you. I wouldn't put them to a test.

Now, somebody explain to me
what the hell is going on here.

Dr Weir.

Okay, no more lies. What is
this? What's happening to me?

There's no point in
deluding you any longer.

Now you know.

Where's Rodney?

The real dr McKay and his team
reside in their own illusory worlds.

I wanna see them. Please.

What happened?

I drew you together from
your fractured realities.

I'm talking about
the beer I had.

Sheppard discovered
the truth first.

He did?

Home was a research
base in Antarctica.

Although I did dream about
a bachelor pad like that.

He seemed uniquely capable of
manipulating his own fabricated reality.

The scenarios I
could have cooked up!

The realities you experienced
were fabrications of your own minds.

Since you had no
memories of earth,

you shared in major
Sheppard's illusion.

I thought that was you.

It's unfortunate you all
became aware so quickly.

However, you may now create a
fabricated reality of your own choosing

for the remainder of your lives.

What?

That's not gonna work for us.

I'm afraid the matter's
beyond your control.

Well, we'll find
a way to fight you.

That would be quite
impossible, major.

Even now you are simply
experiencing a shared fabrication.

It's best if you try
to make a life for yourselves.

This isn't life. What do you
want us to do, just pretend?

I'm sorry, but that's
all I can offer you.

Wait.

Why would you do this?

To protect ourselves.

From us?

We did not intend
to harm anyone.

Unlike you, we exist in
a non-corporeal form

susceptible to the destructive effects
of the Stargate on our home world.

What destructive effects?

The energy readings we had
were life signs. You were in the mist.

We are the mist. Every time
the gate is activated, lives are lost.

Over time, explorers have come and
gone, completely unaware of our existence.

Sacrifices are made
to ensure our secrecy.

When you came back,
we grew concerned.

To learn your intentions, we had
no choice but to enter your minds.

When we discovered what you'd do, we
were forced to take preventive measures.

You said you'd let
others come and go.

Why not allow us to do the same?

Your desire to return to your
home world was too strong.

The energy required to gate to another
galaxy would have killed millions of us.

So when we dialled the gate...

You never dialled the gate.
You just imagined you did.

You are unconscious even now
on the planet's surface.

80 none of this is real?

The cute brunette. Of course.

How do you go from "you're a pig
but I like your cat" to "I missed you"?

We lacked a sophisticated
understanding of your world.

As a result,
the illusions we created

from your thoughts
were ultimately flawed.

The dead people
were a dead giveaway.

Dead people?
What were you doing?

If you had just told us...

Wait. I just realised something.

Our unconscious bodies
are still on the planet?

Yes.

So we need food,
we need water, food.

We won't live long
in this state.

Make the most of
the time you have left.

You're killing us
to save yourselves.

In order to save
millions of our kind.

I believe you would do the same.

If we do not go back, our
friends will come looking for us.

Others of your kind?

They'll show up.

What you gonna do,
kill them, too?

More will come.

They'll work out how
to access the gate.

Then millions of
your kind will die.

We don't leave people behind,

and if you were really general
Hammond, you'd know that.

But if you allow us
to leave here,

we promise we will
never return, ever.

You will not have to fear us
ever again. I give you my word.

How can you make such a promise
when you so desire to return home?

Sure, we'd like to go home.

We're not willing to kill
millions of your kind to do it.

You've been in our heads.
You're in our heads right now.

You should know we mean that.

I understand.

I don't mean to sound negative
because that would be so not me,

but how do we know this isn't a
double fake-out? How do we know...

This is your
reality. You have my word.

I'm starving.
He's gotta be right.

I wonder how long
we've been out.

I need to get the control crystal
out of the dhd. Shouldn't take long.

I'll give you a hand.

Thank you for trusting us.

Rodney, be careful with that. I wanna
make sure we can get back home.

You mean Atlantis.

I think that's what she meant.

She could have meant we
pull a double fake-out and dial earth.

Forget the double fake-out and
get the damn crystal. I'll do the dial-out.
