1
00:00:05,086 --> 00:00:07,129
Once you walk through that
door there's no turning back.
2
00:00:07,171 --> 00:00:10,216
Oh, I understand, Brian. I'm not having any doubts.
3
00:00:10,299 --> 00:00:12,927
Alec, it is not just your credibility at stake here.
4
00:00:12,969 --> 00:00:14,220
You're right there.
5
00:00:14,345 --> 00:00:17,848
It's the leaders of the democratic
free world who should be worried.
6
00:00:17,890 --> 00:00:21,477
Think about the people who work for this company;
the shareholders.
7
00:00:21,811 --> 00:00:26,899
I am, Brian. They have a right to know
the truth, as does everybody else.
8
00:00:31,070 --> 00:00:34,448
Trust me... we're doing the right thing.
9
00:00:50,256 --> 00:00:52,717
Thank you all for coming.
10
00:00:55,595 --> 00:01:01,058
As you all know, about five months ago
our planet suffered a horrible tragedy.
11
00:01:01,142 --> 00:01:06,022
Over two thousand American
servicemen and women were killed
12
00:01:06,063 --> 00:01:09,025
when a meteor shower disrupted global communications
13
00:01:09,108 --> 00:01:13,904
and hit a United States naval carrier
group on manoeuvres in the Pacific Ocean.
14
00:01:15,573 --> 00:01:23,372
I'm here today to challenge the facts of that incident
as they've been conveyed to the general public.
15
00:01:25,791 --> 00:01:33,132
On the day in question,
none of our satellites detected a meteor shower.
16
00:01:33,215 --> 00:01:34,926
Hey, what's going on?
17
00:01:35,509 --> 00:01:39,138
Now I don't know how many governments
around the world are in on this,
18
00:01:39,221 --> 00:01:45,061
but I do know we are being lied to
and the truth is being covered up.
19
00:01:47,563 --> 00:01:52,777
Ladies and gentlemen, there is life beyond our world.
20
00:01:53,611 --> 00:01:58,324
There are aliens out there,
and they have a technology far beyond ours,
21
00:01:58,449 --> 00:02:02,912
and they have been intervening
in our existence for quite some time.
22
00:02:05,081 --> 00:02:06,958
I have proof...
23
00:02:07,667 --> 00:02:12,463
and I am giving the governments
of all the nations that are aware of this
24
00:02:12,588 --> 00:02:16,217
twenty-four hours to reveal the truth...
25
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,516
or I'm gonna do it for them.
Thank you.
26
00:02:26,352 --> 00:02:29,522
Well... there we go.

31
00:03:34,587 --> 00:03:37,924
For those of you living on another
planet for the past twenty years,
32
00:03:38,049 --> 00:03:42,970
Alec Colson, age forty-two,
net worth over sixty billion dollars,
33
00:03:43,137 --> 00:03:45,389
runs a global empire of companies,
34
00:03:45,431 --> 00:03:50,686
including communications, biotechnology,
aerospace and aviation.
35
00:03:50,728 --> 00:03:52,939
He's number eight on the Fortune Five Hundred.
36
00:03:53,022 --> 00:03:56,233
He personally holds over two
hundred proprietary patents...
37
00:03:56,275 --> 00:03:57,944
Shut it off!
38
00:03:59,612 --> 00:04:01,072
We know who he is...
39
00:04:02,323 --> 00:04:04,241
some of us better than others.
40
00:04:04,533 --> 00:04:06,619
We worked together briefly, sir.
41
00:04:06,744 --> 00:04:11,123
Colson Aviation developed the multi-engine
control systems for the F-302s.
42
00:04:11,540 --> 00:04:15,252
Colson didn't know what they were for,
of course, but he is a brilliant engineer.
43
00:04:15,294 --> 00:04:17,755
He's also a little nuts, isn't he?
44
00:04:17,797 --> 00:04:20,258
You've test-flown experimental aircraft.
45
00:04:20,299 --> 00:04:21,968
We all go through the Gate.
46
00:04:22,343 --> 00:04:24,428
This isn't about us.
47
00:04:24,762 --> 00:04:26,347
Well, in a way, it is.
48
00:04:26,389 --> 00:04:29,517
The point is, sir, he's not some loony cult leader.
49
00:04:29,558 --> 00:04:31,644
People are taking him seriously.
50
00:04:32,645 --> 00:04:34,939
So, what do we think he knows?
51
00:04:35,523 --> 00:04:38,442
He owns several Earth observer and weather satellites.
52
00:04:38,526 --> 00:04:40,361
It's possible they picked something up...
53
00:04:40,695 --> 00:04:44,156
pictures of Anubis' fleet in orbit,
or the battle over Antarctica.
54
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,284
What I don't understand is how it could have come this far.
55
00:04:46,951 --> 00:04:50,579
He's gotten the National Security
speech from the Pentagon several times.
56
00:04:50,830 --> 00:04:54,041
Apparently the President has called him personally.
57
00:04:54,125 --> 00:04:56,419
Why not merely tell him the truth?
58
00:04:56,502 --> 00:05:00,506
His personality was profiled and
he was deemed a "security risk".
59
00:05:01,090 --> 00:05:02,758
For obvious reasons.
60
00:05:02,883 --> 00:05:06,637
Apparently his father was a newspaper reporter
who was jailed during the McCarthy era.
61
00:05:06,721 --> 00:05:10,933
He believes pretty strongly in the freedom of speech and the rights
for people to know what their government is doing at all times.
62
00:05:10,975 --> 00:05:14,395
Leaking classified information could be considered treason.
63
00:05:16,397 --> 00:05:19,734
Alright... see if he can be convinced not to go public.
64
00:05:21,027 --> 00:05:23,154
Without actually telling him anything?
65
00:05:23,321 --> 00:05:24,697
Right!
66
00:05:30,286 --> 00:05:31,621
We've got all the major networks,
67
00:05:31,704 --> 00:05:35,166
over a dozen live radio broadcasts,
and reporters from newspapers...
68
00:05:35,249 --> 00:05:38,252
both legit and tabloids...
all waiting for the next shoe to drop.
69
00:05:38,336 --> 00:05:39,795
Brian, calm down.
70
00:05:39,837 --> 00:05:42,256
Our stock price is trading down twenty-five percent.
71
00:05:42,298 --> 00:05:45,343
We over-extended ourselves competing
for that last round of contracts.
72
00:05:45,384 --> 00:05:51,390
That stock price is the only thing covering our
debt and you are alienating our biggest client.
73
00:05:51,390 --> 00:05:53,267
We're gonna have to start selling off assets...
74
00:05:53,309 --> 00:05:57,647
What does that matter, Brian, given what we know?
75
00:05:58,689 --> 00:06:02,068
I don't know... I guess I'm just
trying to hold onto some shred of reality.
76
00:06:02,109 --> 00:06:04,946
Well, you... along with everyone else...
77
00:06:04,987 --> 00:06:09,116
are going to have to start dealing
with a whole new reality from now on.
78
00:06:09,533 --> 00:06:11,202
What if the world can't handle it?
79
00:06:11,243 --> 00:06:14,121
What if Washington's right and
we should just keep this thing in the bag?
80
00:06:14,163 --> 00:06:16,832
Trust me. The truth is always right.
81
00:06:18,376 --> 00:06:20,503
We've already caused mass hysteria.
82
00:06:20,795 --> 00:06:23,547
You have no idea how much chaos this could cause.
83
00:06:23,881 --> 00:06:26,175
Alec... they're here.
84
00:06:26,258 --> 00:06:27,593
Oh, show them in, would you?
85
00:06:30,054 --> 00:06:31,222
It'll be OK.
86
00:06:33,391 --> 00:06:34,684
Lieutenant Colonel.
87
00:06:35,059 --> 00:06:35,893
Alec.
88
00:06:36,018 --> 00:06:37,311
Radiant as ever.
89
00:06:38,312 --> 00:06:39,272
Daniel Jackson.
90
00:06:39,438 --> 00:06:40,856
Oh, Doc, I'm a big fan.
91
00:06:40,982 --> 00:06:41,816
Really?
92
00:06:41,941 --> 00:06:44,402
Yes... I've been following you since your early career.
93
00:06:44,568 --> 00:06:47,530
Pyramids as landing pads for alien ships? Fascinating.
94
00:06:47,947 --> 00:06:50,241
Er, yeah, that was a long time ago.
95
00:06:50,408 --> 00:06:53,953
Yeah, what have you been up to since?
It's like you just dropped off the map.
96
00:06:54,078 --> 00:06:55,496
I've been around.
97
00:06:56,539 --> 00:07:00,710
Oh, I beg your pardon... may I introduce Brian Vogler.
98
00:07:01,127 --> 00:07:02,795
Thank you for seeing us today.
99
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,088
Well, shall we?
100
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,843
Why don't we start with something
I'm sure we can all agree on, hmm?
101
00:07:09,677 --> 00:07:15,266
That meteor shower was a cover story,
and a surprisingly weak one at that...
102
00:07:15,349 --> 00:07:19,854
although under the circumstances
I'm not so sure I'd have come up with a better one.
103
00:07:19,937 --> 00:07:21,564
What makes you say that?
104
00:07:41,292 --> 00:07:44,045
Oh... I'm guessing that's one of ours?
105
00:07:44,170 --> 00:07:47,632
We lost contact with twelve communications
and weather mapping satellites
106
00:07:47,715 --> 00:07:49,884
for over six hours on the day in question.
107
00:07:49,967 --> 00:07:53,679
When we got them back on line, they were able
to transmit images stored in the buffers.
108
00:07:54,513 --> 00:07:56,474
Images like these can be faked.
109
00:07:56,599 --> 00:07:59,101
Or made to seem fake.
110
00:08:03,397 --> 00:08:06,025
I know why you're here, Sam.
111
00:08:06,359 --> 00:08:09,070
The Pentagon wants me to know that people like you
112
00:08:09,153 --> 00:08:11,489
are gonna be trying to make me look like a fraud.
113
00:08:11,614 --> 00:08:12,823
"People like me".
114
00:08:12,907 --> 00:08:17,161
Very smart people. Oh, we have more than this.
115
00:08:17,662 --> 00:08:19,789
Now, obviously I don't know everything but...
116
00:08:19,914 --> 00:08:23,626
I do have a right to, as does everyone else.
117
00:08:24,877 --> 00:08:26,879
Anything we can say to stop you?
118
00:08:27,004 --> 00:08:28,673
Believe me, I've tried.
119
00:08:35,721 --> 00:08:36,764
Carter.
120
00:08:37,431 --> 00:08:39,100
Sam, it's Julia Donovan.
121
00:08:39,308 --> 00:08:41,727
How did you get this number?
122
00:08:42,395 --> 00:08:44,063
I have my sources.
123
00:08:44,188 --> 00:08:47,191
Our camera track just caught
you and a nice-looking young man
124
00:08:47,316 --> 00:08:50,069
going into Colson Industries
'head office in Seattle an hour ago.
125
00:08:50,111 --> 00:08:51,737
I just saw the feed.
126
00:08:51,862 --> 00:08:52,822
And?
127
00:08:52,905 --> 00:08:55,199
Just wondering if you had an official comment.
128
00:08:55,241 --> 00:08:57,827
Yeah... I think your coverage is a little one-sided.
129
00:08:57,868 --> 00:09:00,913
Come on, Sam... Colson's gonna out the whole operation.
130
00:09:01,038 --> 00:09:03,833
You don't really think Washington can contain this.
131
00:09:03,916 --> 00:09:08,045
We'll see. Look, I don't have to remind you about
the non-disclosure agreement you signed, do I?
132
00:09:08,296 --> 00:09:10,423
It's the reporter from the Prometheus incident.
133
00:09:11,215 --> 00:09:13,884
Colson doesn't seem to be worried about going to jail.
134
00:09:14,302 --> 00:09:16,595
Yeah, well he hasn't done anything illegal yet.
135
00:09:16,887 --> 00:09:18,472
We had an agreement.
136
00:09:18,598 --> 00:09:21,684
You said that if something big was
gonna break, you would call me first.
137
00:09:21,809 --> 00:09:24,353
I will, OK? Bye-bye.
138
00:09:25,187 --> 00:09:27,857
I've got thirteen messages from Emmet Bregman.
139
00:09:31,277 --> 00:09:33,696
The switchboard's been jammed
ever since the press conference.
140
00:09:33,821 --> 00:09:35,531
Every crackpot in the world is calling.
141
00:09:35,615 --> 00:09:38,451
Yeah, I've arranged security
for all of you and your families.
142
00:09:38,534 --> 00:09:39,994
Do you really think we need to be worried?
143
00:09:40,119 --> 00:09:42,330
I'd be more worried about the things
we still don't know at this point.
144
00:09:42,413 --> 00:09:44,498
I'm trying to convince him it's not too late.
145
00:09:44,624 --> 00:09:46,667
It is too late, Brian!
146
00:09:46,917 --> 00:09:49,587
Too late for the world to know
there was a large-scale alien attack
147
00:09:49,670 --> 00:09:51,922
against our planet which was barely thwarted;
148
00:09:52,006 --> 00:09:54,050
too late for the general public
to realise they've been lied
149
00:09:54,175 --> 00:09:58,596
to by two different elected administrations
about the very nature of our existence!
150
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:00,306
So we're going public with everything?
151
00:10:00,348 --> 00:10:02,058
I was really hoping the Feds would come clean.
152
00:10:02,099 --> 00:10:04,143
I can't believe Washington
hasn't done more to try and stop us...
153
00:10:04,268 --> 00:10:05,895
some sort of legal injunction.
154
00:10:06,020 --> 00:10:07,897
That would legitimise our claims.
155
00:10:08,064 --> 00:10:12,193
No, no, they're obviously gonna try to play
this as if we can't be taken seriously.
156
00:10:12,318 --> 00:10:14,153
We're one of the largest corporations in the world.
157
00:10:14,236 --> 00:10:15,529
And we're telling the truth.
158
00:10:15,655 --> 00:10:19,700
Alec! It doesn't matter who we are,
or how right we are.
159
00:10:20,117 --> 00:10:22,203
They can stop us if they really want to.
160
00:10:22,328 --> 00:10:28,542
Oh, come on, Brian, what are they gonna do, hmm?
Have me killed?
161
00:10:32,296 --> 00:10:33,297
Alec Colson, age forty-two...
162
00:10:33,339 --> 00:10:36,592
Well, he's gotta have something
more significant than pictures.
163
00:10:36,884 --> 00:10:40,388
I've been going over government contracts assigned
to Colson's companies over the last few years.
164
00:10:40,429 --> 00:10:42,765
I haven't got through them all yet but there's quite
165
00:10:42,848 --> 00:10:46,811
a few loosely related to RandD of alien technologies
that we procured offworld.
166
00:10:49,063 --> 00:10:51,107
We'll now head to Colson Industries.
167
00:10:53,734 --> 00:10:56,988
Welcome, and thank you for coming.
168
00:10:57,029 --> 00:10:58,656
Twenty-four hours to the minute.
169
00:10:58,823 --> 00:11:05,079
Yesterday I told you of our belief in the
existence of intelligent life beyond our planet.
170
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:12,128
I also told you that we believe several governments,
including our own, have known about this
171
00:11:12,169 --> 00:11:15,673
and have been concealing
the information for quite some time now.
172
00:11:16,465 --> 00:11:22,680
Yesterday, I challenged those governments
to come clean... reveal the truth.
173
00:11:25,391 --> 00:11:27,351
We got only silence...
174
00:11:29,437 --> 00:11:38,029
Which gives me no choice
but to present to you what evidence I have.
175
00:11:40,615 --> 00:11:44,827
How do I know for sure
that alien life really does exist?
176
00:11:47,163 --> 00:11:51,584
Ladies and gentlemen, seeing is believing.
177
00:12:20,488 --> 00:12:22,490
Well I'd call that somethin'.
178
00:12:29,580 --> 00:12:33,000
The world is in a frenzy after
yesterday's startling revelation
179
00:12:33,084 --> 00:12:37,880
of what appeared to be a live alien
by billionaire industrialist Alec Colson.
180
00:12:38,005 --> 00:12:41,175
Thus far there's been no official
statement from the White House,
181
00:12:41,300 --> 00:12:46,180
and sources inside Colson Industries promise
that there is definitely more to come.
182
00:12:46,180 --> 00:12:47,848
OK, thank you, Sergant.
183
00:12:49,100 --> 00:12:52,103
Well, we just got a message back from Thor.
184
00:12:52,311 --> 00:12:55,523
As far as he knows,
there are no Asgard currently on Earth.
185
00:12:55,690 --> 00:12:57,775
Loki was here for years conducting experiments
186
00:12:57,858 --> 00:13:00,152
without the High Council knowing about it.
187
00:13:00,861 --> 00:13:07,159
OK... here's a possibility.
What if it wasn't really an Asgard?
188
00:13:09,662 --> 00:13:11,205
- Looked like one.
- Didn't sound like one.
189
00:13:11,247 --> 00:13:13,082
- Didn't say anything.
- That's my point
190
00:13:13,291 --> 00:13:16,168
Colson wrapped things up pretty
quickly without taking any questions.
191
00:13:16,252 --> 00:13:17,712
It was a perfect likeness.
192
00:13:18,713 --> 00:13:22,133
Imagery of little grey aliens has
been commonplace on Earth for years.
193
00:13:22,216 --> 00:13:24,510
For that matter, Colson could have a picture.
194
00:13:24,635 --> 00:13:25,845
So not a real Asgard?
195
00:13:26,178 --> 00:13:29,265
No Asgard we know would allow
himself to be used that way.
196
00:13:29,724 --> 00:13:31,267
Did look a little vacant.
197
00:13:32,518 --> 00:13:34,979
Still... as much as he wants the whole truth,
198
00:13:35,021 --> 00:13:37,773
I don't think Colson would perpetrate a hoax to get it.
199
00:13:37,857 --> 00:13:39,191
Then what was it?
200
00:13:40,818 --> 00:13:42,403
I don't know.
201
00:13:42,945 --> 00:13:44,572
The networks all want interviews.
202
00:13:44,989 --> 00:13:46,782
Too bad our friend can't talk.
203
00:13:46,824 --> 00:13:48,117
Well, we know he's capable.
204
00:13:48,159 --> 00:13:50,411
The MRI showed a larynx not too different from ours
205
00:13:50,453 --> 00:13:52,455
but he doesn't seem to have anything to say.
206
00:13:52,538 --> 00:13:56,083
They also want full access for independent
medical and scientific personnel
207
00:13:56,125 --> 00:13:58,419
to verify that it's really what we say it is.
208
00:13:58,461 --> 00:13:59,837
How are we supposed to convince the world
209
00:13:59,879 --> 00:14:02,548
of alien intelligence when this guy
doesn't seem to have any?
210
00:14:02,632 --> 00:14:04,759
We can't just trot this thing out on television
211
00:14:04,842 --> 00:14:07,303
with wild claims we aren't gonna be able to back up!
212
00:14:07,511 --> 00:14:09,930
Granted, it's an amazing genetic experiment
213
00:14:09,972 --> 00:14:12,642
but we don't even know that the thing is really alien.
214
00:14:12,683 --> 00:14:13,768
What else could it be?
215
00:14:13,851 --> 00:14:16,604
All we know is that the DNA came
from the Department of Defense.
216
00:14:16,646 --> 00:14:20,107
Look, we're trying to build a circumstantial case here.
217
00:14:20,191 --> 00:14:21,567
The more questions we can raise,
218
00:14:21,609 --> 00:14:24,528
the more the burden of proof
is gonna shift to Washington.
219
00:14:24,570 --> 00:14:27,365
Sooner or later, they're gonna have
to respond to the public pressure.
220
00:14:27,406 --> 00:14:32,161
Meanwhile, we stay quiet.
The media's going nuts over this whole thing,
221
00:14:32,286 --> 00:14:37,583
so let's just sit tight and see what happens.
222
00:14:41,045 --> 00:14:45,049
Well, Sam was right...
there's something different about Colson's Asgard.
223
00:14:48,594 --> 00:14:51,347
It seems that a Colson biotech research company
224
00:14:51,389 --> 00:14:54,350
was given a copy of Asgard DNA for sequencing.
225
00:14:54,392 --> 00:14:56,435
We were trying to help with their cloning problem.
226
00:14:56,602 --> 00:14:58,771
Colson grew a clone?
227
00:14:59,563 --> 00:15:01,482
They weren't told it was alien DNA...
228
00:15:01,524 --> 00:15:03,067
It was meant to be a blind study,
229
00:15:03,150 --> 00:15:06,237
but they obviously took their research
a little further than the contract specified.
230
00:15:07,571 --> 00:15:11,325
Asgard DNA is programmed to grow
a clone to maturity in just three months,
231
00:15:11,450 --> 00:15:15,621
but they're essentially an empty shell until an
existing consciousness can be transferred into them.
232
00:15:15,705 --> 00:15:17,915
It did not speak because it was not capable.
233
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:22,003
Exactly. They probably spent what time
they had with it teaching it how to walk.
234
00:15:23,713 --> 00:15:28,467
Well... the Pentagon has lost all patience.
235
00:15:28,718 --> 00:15:29,927
What are they gonna do?
236
00:15:29,969 --> 00:15:31,554
They want us to put a stop to it.
237
00:15:32,013 --> 00:15:32,972
How?
238
00:15:33,764 --> 00:15:35,766
We're calling in a marker.
239
00:15:46,152 --> 00:15:48,738
Yep... We're calling in a marker.
240
00:15:54,702 --> 00:15:55,745
Greetings.
241
00:15:59,665 --> 00:16:00,374
Excuse me.
242
00:16:01,834 --> 00:16:02,752
It's gone.
243
00:16:03,377 --> 00:16:04,128
What do you mean?
244
00:16:04,170 --> 00:16:06,047
Just disappeared right out of the lab.
245
00:16:06,380 --> 00:16:08,883
The alien! Computers, everything.
246
00:16:09,342 --> 00:16:10,468
How? What about security... ?
247
00:16:10,593 --> 00:16:13,971
Nobody took it... it disappeared.
We were standing right there,
248
00:16:14,096 --> 00:16:16,474
there was a bright flash of light
and it was all just... gone.
249
00:16:16,599 --> 00:16:18,351
Alright, have Ron send out the decoy car...
250
00:16:18,434 --> 00:16:20,686
and get the plane ready for a trip to Washington.
251
00:16:20,770 --> 00:16:22,605
Have it ready by the time I get to the hangar!
252
00:16:26,108 --> 00:16:27,151
You ready?
253
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:28,402
Not really.
254
00:16:28,444 --> 00:16:30,529
Well, just try not to think about the camera.
Focus on me.
255
00:16:31,739 --> 00:16:34,075
It's not that. I respect Alec Colson.
256
00:16:34,825 --> 00:16:38,162
I don't like being asked to discredit a man
who has every right to want the truth.
257
00:16:39,246 --> 00:16:40,790
But you've been ordered to do this.
258
00:16:40,873 --> 00:16:41,415
Yeah.
259
00:16:41,582 --> 00:16:44,001
Well, if you wanna go against those orders, feel free.
260
00:16:44,043 --> 00:16:45,294
I'll go with it.
261
00:16:48,089 --> 00:16:52,009
In five, four, three, two...
262
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,724
We're here with Lieutenant Colonel
Samantha Carter of the United States Air Force.
263
00:16:58,808 --> 00:17:00,601
- Welcome.
- Thank you.
264
00:17:00,851 --> 00:17:02,520
Your background is astrophysics,
265
00:17:02,561 --> 00:17:05,856
and you're one of the military's
leading scientific researchers.
266
00:17:05,898 --> 00:17:08,734
We're all very eager to finally hear some reaction
267
00:17:08,776 --> 00:17:12,196
from Washington regarding
the revelation made by Alec Colson.
268
00:17:12,530 --> 00:17:14,949
Well, first of all, I can assure people that,
269
00:17:15,074 --> 00:17:20,371
if aliens really existed and were visiting
the planet, we would know about it.
270
00:17:20,830 --> 00:17:23,708
So, are you saying his claims have no merit?
271
00:17:23,791 --> 00:17:27,044
We all saw an alien on live television.
272
00:17:27,169 --> 00:17:31,173
Yes, well, Hollywood's been helping
us see things on TV for a long time now.
273
00:17:32,008 --> 00:17:34,302
Are you saying that the alien wasn't real?
274
00:17:34,927 --> 00:17:36,846
It depends on what you mean by real.
275
00:17:37,555 --> 00:17:40,057
Notice she hasn't actually lied once.
276
00:17:40,308 --> 00:17:42,226
I can show you some advanced methods
277
00:17:42,310 --> 00:17:45,396
for creating realistic 3D images
that we've been working on.
278
00:17:45,646 --> 00:17:46,689
By all means.
279
00:17:46,939 --> 00:17:50,401
We've been experimenting with
technology that makes it possible
280
00:17:50,484 --> 00:17:54,238
for us to create anything you can imagine... virtually.
281
00:18:01,120 --> 00:18:04,665
Wow... that looks just like
the alien Alec Colson introduced to us.
282
00:18:06,083 --> 00:18:08,252
Greetings, people of Earth.
283
00:18:09,629 --> 00:18:11,881
That's amazing... he looks so real.
284
00:18:11,922 --> 00:18:17,762
Though I look real, I have been created through
the use of advanced holographic technology.
285
00:18:21,432 --> 00:18:22,892
That's just incredible.
286
00:18:25,603 --> 00:18:27,146
It's just a projection.
287
00:18:27,396 --> 00:18:30,858
You'll probably be seeing technology like
this in theme park rides in a few years.
288
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,986
Oh... she's good.
289
00:18:38,616 --> 00:18:42,161
Not quite the exclusive I had in mind,
but it'll still do huge numbers.
290
00:18:42,203 --> 00:18:43,371
You're hilarious.
291
00:18:43,412 --> 00:18:45,915
After everything you've been through,
you still care about ratings.
292
00:18:46,540 --> 00:18:50,503
How did you do it? I've seen visual effects before Sam,
293
00:18:50,544 --> 00:18:52,213
and this was some sort of...
294
00:18:53,506 --> 00:18:56,342
this was some sort of alien technology, wasn't it?
295
00:19:02,807 --> 00:19:03,849
What is it?
296
00:19:04,517 --> 00:19:07,019
Ten minutes ago, Alec Colson's private plane was forced
297
00:19:07,103 --> 00:19:11,565
into an emergency landing after
almost crashing on take-off from Seatac.
298
00:19:11,899 --> 00:19:15,361
The plane suffered sudden depressurisation
and loss of engine power
299
00:19:15,403 --> 00:19:17,488
but was able to land without serious incident.
300
00:19:17,697 --> 00:19:20,032
Excuse me, Sam, I've gotta get on the air with this.
301
00:19:20,241 --> 00:19:22,368
I need something on Colson's wife and his daughter.
302
00:19:22,410 --> 00:19:24,537
They died in a plane crash when he was twenty-four.
303
00:19:24,870 --> 00:19:26,872
That's why he started Colson Aviation.
304
00:19:27,331 --> 00:19:28,374
Let's go!
305
00:19:31,752 --> 00:19:32,586
Carter.
306
00:19:32,628 --> 00:19:34,630
Sam? It's Alec Colson.
307
00:19:38,259 --> 00:19:39,051
Are you OK?
308
00:19:39,385 --> 00:19:42,722
News travels fast. It was close.
309
00:19:43,639 --> 00:19:45,308
Brian's still as white as a sheet.
310
00:19:46,183 --> 00:19:47,476
How did you get this number?
311
00:19:47,476 --> 00:19:49,854
Oh, I have my sources.
312
00:19:49,895 --> 00:19:53,649
You know, the ground crew here found evidence
the plane had been tampered with.
313
00:19:53,649 --> 00:19:54,942
Someone tried to kill you?
314
00:19:54,942 --> 00:19:57,862
Seems that way. Any ideas?
315
00:19:58,696 --> 00:20:00,156
You think I know?
316
00:20:00,948 --> 00:20:04,910
Why would I go on TV to publicly discredit you
if I knew you were about to be assassinated?
317
00:20:04,910 --> 00:20:07,872
To make sure it didn't look like
Washington had anything to do with it.
318
00:20:08,122 --> 00:20:10,583
And a fine job you did too, by the way.
319
00:20:11,334 --> 00:20:12,752
I'm sorry... I was following orders.
320
00:20:12,793 --> 00:20:13,919
Yeah, I know.
321
00:20:14,420 --> 00:20:15,546
Don't worry, Sam.
322
00:20:15,546 --> 00:20:17,882
I don't believe for a second you were in on it.
323
00:20:18,341 --> 00:20:21,218
If it was our government, I'm sure you were just a pawn.
324
00:20:22,094 --> 00:20:24,305
That doesn't make me feel any better.
325
00:20:24,347 --> 00:20:26,223
Look, Alec, I can assure you...
326
00:20:26,265 --> 00:20:30,186
It's OK, it's OK. It wasn't
my first rough landing; I'm sure it won't be my last.
327
00:20:31,020 --> 00:20:33,147
I won't be stopped, Sam.
328
00:20:33,147 --> 00:20:38,110
I promise you, one way or another,
the world is gonna learn the truth.
329
00:20:47,078 --> 00:20:49,789
Umm... how about a hyperdrive for the Prometheus?
330
00:20:50,122 --> 00:20:53,709
That is something I must discuss with the High Council.
331
00:20:53,751 --> 00:20:58,214
Thor, c'mon! You said you wanted
to get something nice for the President.
332
00:21:03,010 --> 00:21:04,428
Carter?
333
00:21:05,346 --> 00:21:07,974
Sir, anything on who might have tried to kill Colson?
334
00:21:08,391 --> 00:21:10,184
It wasn't us.
335
00:21:10,184 --> 00:21:14,438
We think that Colson may have fragments
of downed Goa'uld ships recovered from the Antarctic.
336
00:21:14,438 --> 00:21:17,441
A subsidiary of his was involved
in the salvage and the clean-up.
337
00:21:17,483 --> 00:21:20,027
Are we just gonna keep trying to discredit the man?
338
00:21:20,820 --> 00:21:25,241
I mean, aren't we the ones a little delusional
to think that we could cover up an attack of this scale?
339
00:21:26,492 --> 00:21:28,160
What's the alternative?
340
00:21:28,494 --> 00:21:30,037
How about tell the truth?
341
00:21:33,165 --> 00:21:34,583
I mean to Colson.
342
00:21:34,625 --> 00:21:39,755
I know he's been profiled and deemed a security
risk and obviously that's an accurate assessment, but
343
00:21:39,797 --> 00:21:42,300
what have we got to lose at this point?
344
00:21:42,341 --> 00:21:47,346
He's already trying to go public...
let's show him why it's so important to keep the secret.
345
00:21:48,014 --> 00:21:51,934
Besides, think of the benefits of having
a man with his resources on our side.
346
00:21:55,521 --> 00:22:00,484
Well, Thor and I are meeting with
the President in five minutes. I'll bring it up.
347
00:22:00,818 --> 00:22:02,528
Five minutes?
348
00:22:02,570 --> 00:22:04,030
Oh yeah!
349
00:22:09,410 --> 00:22:10,286
Right!
350
00:22:14,832 --> 00:22:20,463
Two o'clock, we go live with the pictures,
pieces of the alien ship, everything we've got.
351
00:22:20,504 --> 00:22:23,633
Alec, they tried to kill us!
352
00:22:24,342 --> 00:22:27,094
You think that didn't work in our favour?
353
00:22:27,094 --> 00:22:30,723
Dying doesn't work in our favour!
354
00:22:40,358 --> 00:22:43,027
OK... what just happened?
355
00:22:43,611 --> 00:22:48,032
Well, in layman's terms,
we beamed you up... and then down again.
356
00:22:48,032 --> 00:22:49,241
Where am I?
357
00:22:49,283 --> 00:22:53,454
Cheyenne Mountain Complex, Colorado.
358
00:22:53,496 --> 00:22:55,081
You know Daniel, of course.
359
00:22:55,122 --> 00:22:57,541
Uh, yeah, hi. And this is Thor.
360
00:22:57,583 --> 00:22:59,168
Greetings.
361
00:22:59,710 --> 00:23:02,421
Oh, so this is a real one!
362
00:23:02,421 --> 00:23:03,631
Yep.
363
00:23:03,631 --> 00:23:05,299
What-what happened to the clone?
364
00:23:05,299 --> 00:23:11,681
It will become a host to an Asgard
consciousness whose physical body is failing.
365
00:23:11,681 --> 00:23:13,057
OK.
366
00:23:13,683 --> 00:23:18,896
Now I must take my leave.
General O'Neill said he will see you all tomorrow.
367
00:23:26,278 --> 00:23:27,613
I wanna show you something.
368
00:23:42,962 --> 00:23:44,547
We call it a Stargate.
369
00:23:47,425 --> 00:23:51,262
I'm OK, Brian. I promise you, I'm fine.
370
00:23:51,262 --> 00:23:56,017
I'll be back in a couple of days.
I've gotta go... Alright, bye.
371
00:23:56,434 --> 00:23:59,478
- Ready?
- Woh... look at you!
372
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,440
Yeah... Soldier Sam.
373
00:24:02,857 --> 00:24:04,859
Ooh, I get a uniform too?
374
00:24:04,859 --> 00:24:05,818
Yep.
375
00:24:07,570 --> 00:24:09,280
Alright!
376
00:24:32,803 --> 00:24:35,723
So, uh, where are we going?
377
00:24:35,765 --> 00:24:38,976
P4X-650. We have an offworld base there.
378
00:24:39,602 --> 00:24:41,270
And how far away is that?
379
00:24:41,687 --> 00:24:44,190
Six hundred and forty light years.
380
00:24:44,982 --> 00:24:46,776
Really?!
381
00:24:46,817 --> 00:24:48,569
Let's go.
382
00:25:02,667 --> 00:25:04,251
Didn't feel a thing.
383
00:25:04,251 --> 00:25:06,295
You were demolecularised.
384
00:25:08,589 --> 00:25:10,424
Welcome to the Alpha site.
385
00:25:10,549 --> 00:25:12,551
Alec Colson, Captain Shefield.
386
00:25:13,260 --> 00:25:14,637
Hi.
387
00:25:15,513 --> 00:25:17,974
Well, it's-it's... nice.
388
00:25:18,432 --> 00:25:21,310
Our last Alpha site was destroyed in an attack.
389
00:25:21,310 --> 00:25:24,230
We decided to build this one
inside a mountain like the SGC.
390
00:25:24,855 --> 00:25:27,775
This is all a bit spartan,
but it's our home away from home.
391
00:25:28,734 --> 00:25:34,657
I guess I was just expecting something
a little bit more, uh, I dunno... other-worldly?
392
00:25:44,208 --> 00:25:49,088
Oh! Now that... that's more like it.
393
00:25:49,547 --> 00:25:52,800
It's called the F-302... alien-human hybrid.
394
00:25:55,344 --> 00:25:58,014
So this is what the MECs were for.
395
00:25:58,180 --> 00:26:01,767
Yeah... thanks to you it's capable of
leaving the atmosphere and returning.
396
00:26:02,643 --> 00:26:05,313
We used a number of these
to defend the Earth five months ago.
397
00:26:05,730 --> 00:26:10,526
This is just one of the many advancements we've made
as a result of technology procured through the Stargate.
398
00:26:12,486 --> 00:26:13,863
You wanna take a ride?
399
00:26:30,379 --> 00:26:31,380
Brian, what are you doing?
400
00:26:32,006 --> 00:26:37,219
Alec wants all the evidence that we have about the
alien cover-up duplicated and secured off-premises.
401
00:26:37,928 --> 00:26:40,765
You can get started on whatever
we have left on the clone research.
402
00:26:41,098 --> 00:26:42,224
OK.
403
00:26:55,988 --> 00:26:57,198
Vogler.
404
00:26:58,491 --> 00:27:00,534
I told you, I don't know where he is.
405
00:27:03,037 --> 00:27:05,498
I have a meeting with the SEC this afternoon.
406
00:27:06,624 --> 00:27:08,167
I understand.
407
00:27:09,460 --> 00:27:11,337
Don't worry,
408
00:27:12,254 --> 00:27:13,965
it'll work.
409
00:27:32,483 --> 00:27:35,152
- Beautiful!
- Yeah.
410
00:27:35,194 --> 00:27:40,074
Must be hard, keeping all this secret.
I don't know how you do it.
411
00:27:40,408 --> 00:27:43,244
I think of all the fear it would cause,
the potential chaos.
412
00:27:43,285 --> 00:27:47,707
Ah, but what about all the greater
meaning you could bring to people's lives,
413
00:27:47,748 --> 00:27:50,960
just knowing that
all this is-is out here?
414
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,839
What's out here is an enemy
so advanced, so evil,
415
00:27:54,839 --> 00:27:58,009
it's a miracle we haven't been
wiped out or enslaved yet.
416
00:27:58,384 --> 00:28:00,553
We've been very lucky so far.
417
00:28:00,553 --> 00:28:05,057
I think most people would have a hard time living
with the threat of constant impending doom.
418
00:28:05,099 --> 00:28:08,394
Oh, right, the old
"if you had cancer" argument.
419
00:28:08,436 --> 00:28:10,062
Would you want to know
you were gonna die,
420
00:28:10,062 --> 00:28:13,149
or would you rather live out your
final days in blissful ignorance?
421
00:28:13,649 --> 00:28:16,861
Yeah... I guess I don't really buy it either.
422
00:28:16,861 --> 00:28:19,613
Well, I'd rather know... try to cure it.
423
00:28:19,613 --> 00:28:25,369
If I couldn't do that, well, I'd try to make
my final days as meaningful as possible.
424
00:28:26,746 --> 00:28:28,581
You want a turn?
425
00:28:29,957 --> 00:28:32,251
I thought I was gonna have to ask!
426
00:28:32,293 --> 00:28:34,795
Switching to co-pilot control.
427
00:28:35,046 --> 00:28:36,756
Go ahead... she's all yours.
428
00:28:44,639 --> 00:28:46,515
So... what do you think?
429
00:28:46,599 --> 00:28:47,600
Amazing!
430
00:28:47,683 --> 00:28:52,730
She manoeuvres like an FA-22
and feels like a 747!
431
00:28:52,772 --> 00:28:54,815
Yeah, that's the inertial dampeners.
432
00:28:54,857 --> 00:28:57,068
Alright... let's try this.
433
00:29:07,286 --> 00:29:09,038
Alec!
434
00:29:10,373 --> 00:29:13,000
Alec, pull up!
435
00:29:26,055 --> 00:29:29,225
Flight, this is Alpha Command.
Is everything OK up there?
436
00:29:29,308 --> 00:29:32,395
It is now. We're fine. Bringing her back in.
437
00:29:54,500 --> 00:29:56,168
Well, that was reckless.
438
00:29:56,335 --> 00:30:00,339
Ah, the 302 can handle it. I know.
439
00:30:00,381 --> 00:30:04,468
I may not have known its name but
I helped you build it, remember?
440
00:30:05,011 --> 00:30:09,056
It was a joyride.
I took you up for a little fun.
441
00:30:09,807 --> 00:30:13,561
This isn't a game, Sam.
What you guys are doing up here, ...
442
00:30:13,561 --> 00:30:16,397
... this is life and death, for all of us.
443
00:30:16,439 --> 00:30:17,857
We know that.
444
00:30:18,065 --> 00:30:21,610
Wasn't much fun, feeling out
of control like that, was it?
445
00:30:21,652 --> 00:30:24,739
You have to make your point with my life.
446
00:30:24,780 --> 00:30:30,244
Oh, come on, we were never gonna crash,
unlike my plane back on Earth.
447
00:30:30,244 --> 00:30:33,497
I told you... we had nothing to do with it.
448
00:30:33,539 --> 00:30:35,583
Yeah, well, someone did.
449
00:30:35,583 --> 00:30:40,004
And if you think that,
or any of this...
450
00:30:40,004 --> 00:30:44,216
... is gonna prevent me from telling the world
what they have a right to know,
451
00:30:44,550 --> 00:30:46,969
... you're dead wrong.
452
00:30:54,977 --> 00:30:57,897
Alec, there's something else
I need to talk to you about.
453
00:31:00,107 --> 00:31:03,819
There's a clandestine group of private
businessmen like yourself who were informed...
454
00:31:03,861 --> 00:31:07,990
of the Stargate programme over six years
ago by rogue elements of the NID.
455
00:31:08,032 --> 00:31:12,203
We've tried to identify them and bring them
down but they are very highly connected.
456
00:31:12,370 --> 00:31:15,039
Former Vice President Kinsey's
been linked to them.
457
00:31:17,071 --> 00:31:19,157
Now, instead of going public like you,
458
00:31:19,157 --> 00:31:21,534
they've been funding various secret endeavours
459
00:31:21,617 --> 00:31:25,204
all aimed at controlling alien technology
for their own purposes.
460
00:31:25,288 --> 00:31:26,414
Which are?
461
00:31:26,414 --> 00:31:28,416
You'd have to ask them.
462
00:31:28,916 --> 00:31:34,005
Personal profit, or maybe they think they can do
a better job of defending the planet than we can.
463
00:31:34,297 --> 00:31:36,340
Why are you telling me all this?
464
00:31:36,966 --> 00:31:39,677
Because I'm guessing
that's who tried to kill you.
465
00:31:41,220 --> 00:31:44,682
They'll never get control of the Gate
if the world finds out.
466
00:31:47,810 --> 00:31:51,856
When I was young, all I ever
dreamed about was flying.
467
00:31:51,898 --> 00:31:57,069
I had every make of aeroplane ever
built hanging from my ceiling.
468
00:31:57,069 --> 00:32:01,532
And then... well, I take it you know
about my wife and daughter.
469
00:32:02,450 --> 00:32:06,621
One of the downsides of celebrity
we really do have no secrets.
470
00:32:07,580 --> 00:32:12,710
Anyway, after the crash, I vowed
to make flying as safe as it possibly could be.
471
00:32:12,710 --> 00:32:15,713
I really thought that I could do it
better than anyone else.
472
00:32:15,755 --> 00:32:17,090
You have made a difference.
473
00:32:18,591 --> 00:32:20,718
But nothing's perfect, is it?
474
00:32:21,177 --> 00:32:22,887
No.
475
00:32:23,429 --> 00:32:25,515
Intergalactic travel;
476
00:32:25,515 --> 00:32:30,353
advanced alien civilisations;
humans living on other worlds.
477
00:32:31,687 --> 00:32:35,191
I do realise that there may
be bad guys out there too.
478
00:32:35,233 --> 00:32:37,652
You have no idea how bad.
479
00:32:37,652 --> 00:32:41,614
But in the end, we have
to believe in humanity.
480
00:32:42,323 --> 00:32:45,993
I mean, who knows, this might
bring us all together as a planet.
481
00:32:46,828 --> 00:32:49,747
If we knew it would play out that way, then...
482
00:32:50,998 --> 00:32:55,169
You're afraid that knowing about the Stargate
would fracture the world more than it already is.
483
00:32:55,294 --> 00:32:59,966
Yeah. Not just stop us fighting the Goa'uld
but end things for good.
484
00:32:59,966 --> 00:33:02,718
We've seen it happen
on other planets like Earth.
485
00:33:02,718 --> 00:33:07,140
In one case, public revelation of the Stargate
caused an apocalyptic world war.
486
00:33:07,140 --> 00:33:09,934
Oh, that would be the ultimate irony,
wouldn't it?!
487
00:33:09,934 --> 00:33:14,105
You secretly save the world from
destruction at the hands of alien invaders,
488
00:33:14,188 --> 00:33:19,152
only for us to destroy ourselves out of fear,
after the fact.
489
00:33:20,319 --> 00:33:21,904
Change your mind?
490
00:33:23,614 --> 00:33:25,950
Not really.
491
00:33:25,950 --> 00:33:28,744
I don't think it would happen.
492
00:33:29,704 --> 00:33:34,000
And if a truth of this magnitude,
493
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:39,797
about the very nature of human existence,
could lead us to destroy ourselves,
494
00:33:40,673 --> 00:33:43,551
then I'd say we would deserve it, wouldn't you?
495
00:33:48,973 --> 00:33:53,895
Investigators now believe that Alec Colson
created the alien hoax in order to divert attention
496
00:33:53,936 --> 00:33:56,522
from his real corporate financial problems.
497
00:33:56,564 --> 00:33:59,859
Colson, who has still made no public statement...
498
00:33:59,901 --> 00:34:04,572
"Corporate financial problems. "
What's she talking about?
499
00:34:04,614 --> 00:34:07,033
The story broke about an hour ago.
500
00:34:07,033 --> 00:34:09,744
The President's halted trading on the markets.
501
00:34:09,744 --> 00:34:11,621
Your company stock had fallen eighty percent;
502
00:34:11,621 --> 00:34:14,332
the Dow is down over five hundred
points on the whole.
503
00:34:15,583 --> 00:34:17,084
What's going on?
504
00:34:17,126 --> 00:34:21,088
The SEC is investigating
you for securities fraud.
505
00:34:21,881 --> 00:34:24,133
That's ridiculous!
506
00:34:24,133 --> 00:34:27,470
They're saying there are irregularities
in your company's last two financial statements.
507
00:34:27,762 --> 00:34:30,264
It's not true!
508
00:34:31,516 --> 00:34:33,476
Come on!
509
00:34:34,143 --> 00:34:36,270
The timing of this...
510
00:34:38,731 --> 00:34:40,691
I'm being set up!
511
00:34:55,873 --> 00:34:57,792
What's she doing here?
512
00:34:58,543 --> 00:35:00,294
She wants to help, Brian.
513
00:35:00,837 --> 00:35:06,134
Oh good! Why... does she have a time machine
so we can go back and undo everything?
514
00:35:06,467 --> 00:35:09,887
Brian. Brian, what's going on?
515
00:35:13,474 --> 00:35:16,811
You wouldn't listen. You wouldn't stop.
516
00:35:16,853 --> 00:35:19,188
So you admit you did this?
517
00:35:19,188 --> 00:35:25,027
Oh! You go off on your adventures, you fly your planes,
518
00:35:25,027 --> 00:35:28,656
you drop by every now and then with a bright idea.
519
00:35:29,991 --> 00:35:32,743
Ever since we were kids.
520
00:35:32,785 --> 00:35:35,997
You're always biting off more than you can chew
521
00:35:36,038 --> 00:35:39,125
and I'm always having to bail you out.
522
00:35:39,125 --> 00:35:42,170
So you doctored the books?!
523
00:35:42,170 --> 00:35:46,549
I had to. I had to do something. I told you
524
00:35:46,549 --> 00:35:51,721
we were over-extended; the stock price
was the only thing keeping us afloat and...
525
00:35:51,721 --> 00:35:54,015
you wouldn't listen.
526
00:35:54,015 --> 00:35:56,267
No, I don't believe this.
527
00:35:56,350 --> 00:35:59,937
Alec... who do you think told the SEC?
528
00:36:00,062 --> 00:36:04,942
Why? Why now? What difference could it make, Brian?
Once the truth came out...
529
00:36:04,984 --> 00:36:07,862
Alec, I almost died in that plane too!
530
00:36:09,113 --> 00:36:11,199
I still have a family.
531
00:36:12,116 --> 00:36:13,826
- They tried to kill us!
- Who?!
532
00:36:13,826 --> 00:36:16,621
Did you really think that they were
gonna let you tell a secret like this?
533
00:36:16,662 --> 00:36:19,957
- Brian! What are you talking about?
- They call themselves the Trust.
534
00:36:26,005 --> 00:36:29,550
Look, all I know is, they're very powerful,
535
00:36:30,802 --> 00:36:37,683
and they think that Washington abdicated its duty to protect
the planet, maybe even caused the problem in the first place.
536
00:36:37,725 --> 00:36:40,812
They see it as their responsibility to step in.
537
00:36:43,981 --> 00:36:45,399
We can fix this.
538
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:50,196
It's too late... it's done. It can't be undone.
539
00:36:50,196 --> 00:36:53,032
Brian, we'll both go to jail.
540
00:36:53,032 --> 00:36:56,327
Yeah, but my family will be safe.
541
00:36:56,369 --> 00:37:01,415
What about the rest of the people that work
for this company? What about their families?
542
00:37:01,415 --> 00:37:04,168
Why weren't you thinking about them three days ago?
543
00:37:07,672 --> 00:37:09,173
How did they know?
544
00:37:10,675 --> 00:37:13,553
How did the people who threatened you
know that you'd cooked the books?
545
00:37:13,594 --> 00:37:17,098
How did they know that there would be
enough to indict both you and Alec?
546
00:37:25,731 --> 00:37:28,359
They got to you six months ago.
547
00:37:29,694 --> 00:37:31,696
Alec, they knew what you had.
548
00:37:32,697 --> 00:37:34,198
Don't ask me how.
549
00:37:36,534 --> 00:37:39,203
They had to make sure they could stop you.
550
00:37:41,289 --> 00:37:43,791
You're wrong, Alec...
551
00:37:45,751 --> 00:37:47,545
true or not,
552
00:37:49,881 --> 00:37:51,716
this shouldn't come out.
553
00:37:56,721 --> 00:37:59,223
World's not ready.
554
00:38:01,517 --> 00:38:03,895
There must be something we can do.
555
00:38:03,895 --> 00:38:05,646
You signed false financial statements.
556
00:38:05,646 --> 00:38:08,816
No, I mean about the people who tried to kill us.
557
00:38:09,442 --> 00:38:13,613
All I know is that they operate above the law and
that they've threatened people's lives before.
558
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:15,823
Then we have to bring them down.
559
00:38:15,823 --> 00:38:17,992
We've tried, believe me.
560
00:38:18,326 --> 00:38:22,497
Well, we have to try again.
561
00:38:27,251 --> 00:38:31,839
So Colson's convinced Vogler to arrange
a meeting with his contact and wear a wire.
562
00:38:31,839 --> 00:38:35,927
Hopefully we'll get enough to connect them
to the rogue NID and then flip them for someone bigger.
563
00:38:35,927 --> 00:38:38,179
We're co-ordinating with Agent Barrett.
564
00:38:38,179 --> 00:38:40,807
At the very least it may restore Colson's public image.
565
00:38:40,848 --> 00:38:46,354
Well, yeah, especially if it turns out that someone in direct
corporate competition with Colson Industries was pulling the strings.
566
00:38:47,313 --> 00:38:50,316
Unfortunately, without further evidence,
567
00:38:50,316 --> 00:38:55,696
Brian Vogler's word alone isn't gonna be enough
to undo all the damage already done to the company.
568
00:38:55,696 --> 00:38:57,573
What of Brian Vogler's safety?
569
00:38:57,573 --> 00:39:01,786
He's under close surveillance.
His family's been taken into protective custody.
570
00:39:02,245 --> 00:39:06,791
Well... I guess the secret is safe... again.
571
00:39:07,375 --> 00:39:08,918
For now.
572
00:39:11,879 --> 00:39:12,713
O'Neill.
573
00:39:12,755 --> 00:39:15,967
You know, I wouldn't count Colson out just yet.
574
00:39:15,967 --> 00:39:18,886
He still feels really strongly that
the world should know the truth.
575
00:39:19,887 --> 00:39:21,013
Alright.
576
00:39:21,514 --> 00:39:23,057
Thank you.
577
00:39:27,353 --> 00:39:31,232
Surveillance just found
Brian Vogler dead in his bathroom.
578
00:39:31,774 --> 00:39:34,902
What? How?
579
00:39:35,361 --> 00:39:37,238
He hanged himself.
580
00:40:03,764 --> 00:40:04,765
Alec.
581
00:40:17,487 --> 00:40:19,363
I'm so sorry about Brian.
582
00:40:19,405 --> 00:40:21,032
I killed him.
583
00:40:21,949 --> 00:40:26,204
Might as well have put the gun against
his head and pulled the trigger myself.
584
00:40:26,204 --> 00:40:27,705
You couldn't have known.
585
00:40:29,373 --> 00:40:31,876
You saw how scared he was.
586
00:40:32,710 --> 00:40:34,796
I know what his family meant to him.
587
00:40:35,838 --> 00:40:38,966
He was never going to do anything
to put them in any danger.
588
00:40:40,051 --> 00:40:41,219
Alec...
589
00:40:41,219 --> 00:40:43,971
He was my best friend.
590
00:40:45,723 --> 00:40:46,516
He betrayed you.
591
00:40:46,557 --> 00:40:50,228
No! I betrayed him.
592
00:40:52,396 --> 00:40:54,398
Why don't you put the gun down?
593
00:41:00,404 --> 00:41:01,906
My life's over, Sam.
594
00:41:03,324 --> 00:41:07,745
Everything I worked for, everything
I believed in, held to be true...
595
00:41:07,745 --> 00:41:08,996
still exists.
596
00:41:10,706 --> 00:41:15,920
Apparently Congress is looking into providing relief.
The companies, the employees, will survive.
597
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,006
While I go to jail for something I didn't do?!
598
00:41:19,799 --> 00:41:22,051
Back on the Alpha site you said,
599
00:41:22,093 --> 00:41:26,931
no matter what, you would rather make
whatever time you had left meaningful.
600
00:41:28,141 --> 00:41:29,934
I'm here to give you that chance.
601
00:41:30,184 --> 00:41:31,644
How?
602
00:41:32,186 --> 00:41:36,566
By making all the indictments
against me just... disappear?
603
00:41:36,566 --> 00:41:39,444
I was thinking more along the lines
of making you disappear.
604
00:41:40,611 --> 00:41:46,367
Problem with a guy like me...
no place on Earth I can hide.
605
00:41:46,367 --> 00:41:48,202
Who's talking about Earth?
606
00:41:52,290 --> 00:41:55,626
Oh, no. No, I couldn't let you do that.
607
00:41:55,626 --> 00:41:59,881
Believe me, I wouldn't be here
without the approval of my superiors.
608
00:42:00,298 --> 00:42:02,758
Now, the President wasn't
responsible for what happened to you
609
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:06,137
but he's also not sorry that
you were publicly discredited.
610
00:42:08,973 --> 00:42:14,061
Please, Alec, come with me.
You can still make a difference.
611
00:42:16,063 --> 00:42:18,232
He who fights and runs away...
612
00:42:30,578 --> 00:42:32,830
lives to fight another day.
613
00:42:40,505 --> 00:42:43,257
And no-one will ever know.
614
00:42:44,759 --> 00:42:47,428
Welcome to my world.
