RUSH: I may be on the verge of discovering
the true nature of Destiny's mission.

ELI: You've had control of this ship
the whole time!

Why wouldn't you tell anyone?

The Lucian Alliance is planning
an attack on Earth.

YOUNG: I killed Riley.
I suffocated him with my own hands.

You are a good commander.

YOUNG: There is no mission other
than getting these people home.

RUSH: It was never about going home, it's
about getting us to where we're going.

That is the mission.

I've just been going over
the shuttle's navigational data

trying to figure out the path
you took back to Destiny.

It seems you were there,
and then you were here.

Nothing in between.

Every square inch of this thing
is in perfect factory condition.

ELI: There's hundreds
of these things!

There's no way we're going to be
able to shoot them all down!

YOUNG: How's that damage report coming?

RUSH: I'll arrange a briefing
when we're ready,

but it's not going to be pretty.

CHLOE: I'm supposed to
be back to normal.

RUSH: You managed to retain
some of the knowledge you gained.

I should think that's a good thing.

Because I can still be useful.

Everyone on this ship is useful.

We all belong here.

All right, somebody say something.
How bad is it?

BRODY: It isn't any one thing,
it's the accumulation.

This ship just wasn't up
to fighting a battle like that.

A big chunk of the life support
is still down, too.

Well, you can repair it, right?

BRODY: With what?

Even if we knew how,
we don't have the spare parts.

I mean, I'm talking about things
that are broken and burnt out,

that I don't even know what they do.

Now, if life support was our only problem
we might be able to figure something out.

But there are dozens of systems
on the brink of failure.

Weapons, shields...

PARK: Well, they're operating.

And at mission critical levels?

We are down to one last everything.

There's practically no redundancy.

"Practically no redundancy."

- Wasn't funny the first three times!
- Well, I'm very tired.

Okay, we know what the problems are.
What are the solutions?

Well, what I think we're trying to say...

We make do as best we can
and carry on with the mission.

Well, it doesn't sound like
that's what they were trying to say.

You're talking like we have a choice here.

- Actually...
- Eli, please...

Ginn and I figured out

how to dial the ninth chevron back to Earth
while Destiny recharges in a star.

- Without blowing up the ship, you mean?
- Yeah.

- No.
- Here we go.

Look, Eli's solution however brilliant,

fails to consider the thousand things
that could go wrong

when attempting to open
a wormhole in a star.

I can show you the simulation.

More to the point, it could cause
the same kind of overload

that happened on Icarus.

Well, who cares if we're not even
going to be here?

RUSH: Well, I do, Lieutenant.

Along with anyone else
who cares to remain aboard this ship.

Rush, come on, man.
Nobody in their right mind would stay.

You said you understood
how important this mission was.

- I did.
- So what's changed?

Nicholas, you know what's changed.

Look, I was all aboard with this,
you know that,

but if the ship can't fly,
there is no mission.

It's not like we're just giving up here.

Well, that's exactly what we're doing.

Well, fortunately for the
people on this ship,

the decision is not yours to make.

Well, thankfully it's not
your bloody decision either...

- Rush!
- We can get through this!

They are just being defeatist!

YOUNG: My first responsibility
is the safety of these people.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, right.

- Oh, whoa.
- Stand aside, Sergeant.

- I can't do that. Colonel's orders.
- Since when?

Just now.

Did he say why?

I didn't ask.

Okay, could you tell me where else
I've been banned from?

Save me wasting my time.

Pretty much any place
that you can push buttons.

Ah.

And I've got people
where all the buttons are.

Destiny's course is
taking us toward a star

roughly 18 hours ahead,
we assume to recharge.

We should be ready.

Oh, we've been ready for a long time.

I'm ready, and I just got here.

I can only imagine what it's like for you.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Hi. We've been expecting you.

Well, it seems you can predict
my every move.

Well, I had to make sure you didn't
lock us out of the dialing programs.

The thought never crossed my mind.

I see the elders have gathered.

You should know
Eli is using the stones right now

to run his calculations
by the best people on Earth.

They'll tell him what I told him.

The work is brilliant,
but what works on paper

does not necessarily work within a star.

Well, Eli said that he's taken that
into consideration.

Eli is not an astrophysicist.

Inside a star there are magnetic fields,

enormous pressures, solar flares,

conditions that make events
unpredictable by any mathematics.

Now, will Eli's connection to Earth work?

Possibly.

But what happens the moment
that wormhole has been established

is anybody's guess.

It could blow a hole in the fabric
of space-time.

He's out of his freaking mind,
you know that?

All right.
So, what are you asking us to do?

Let me talk to the crew.

At least some of them understand
how important it is

to remain on this ship.

Nobody is going to agree to that!

You say you have no choice but to leave.
I have no choice but to stay.

We're going to brief
everyone in the Gate Room

the minute we come out of FTL.

You can address them then.

It would carry far more weight
if you were standing alongside me.

I can do that.

Thank you.

You're not serious.

Oh, I think he is.

BRODY: We've run the simulation
a dozen times. It works.

So, the gamer came up
with power flow algorithm?

Eli, yeah.

I gotta say, you know,
when we tried to solve this back on Earth,

there were a lot of
smart people in that room.

Yeah, well, don't tell him I said this,

but he's arguably the smartest person
I've ever met...

You all right?

- I'm fine. I'm back.
- What did they say?

The math works, so we're on.

Who was the smartest person
you were just talking about?

Einstein.

Einstein?

Yeah, he was... He was pretty smart.

But don't ever tell him you said that?

All right, come on,
let's go tell the Colonel the news.

- Hey, T.J., can you give us a minute?
- Yeah.

Can you keep this ship flying?

Yeah, with help.

Then I need to know an absolute
minimum number of personnel

you need to do it.

Well, as many as possible, obviously.

I need a number.

I'll say a dozen.

Plus you and me?

No, including us.

So, 10.

Yeah, look, I've written down
most of what I intend to say.

If you've got anything
you might want to add...

TELFORD ON RADIO: Everett,
is Rush in the Gate Room with you?

Yeah, what is it?

I need both of you on the bridge.

We don't have time for this just now.

David, we were just gonna talk to the crew.
Can it wait?

Negative! Get up here. Trust me.

We have time.

Yeah. Time they might need to decide.

Just keep everyone here.
We'll be right back.

Uh, sure.

What is it?

VOLKER: It was in orbit around the star.

Destiny picked it up
when it turned towards us,

and then we got the radio broadcast.

From who?

You.

I don't understand.

Neither do we. Wait for it.

Wait for what?

RUSH'S VOICE: I repeat, this is Dr.
Nicholas Rush calling the Destiny.

I'm aboard the shuttle headed your way.
Please respond.

Well, isn't this an
interesting turn of events?

What is this?

Well, I wouldn't know, Colonel.
How about you tell me?

Well, it's not a recording,
if that's what you're thinking.

It's a subspace broadcast,

and beyond the fact
that it sounds exactly like Rush,

I can tell that that's our shuttle,
and it's on an intercept course.

TELFORD: Even though according to this, the
shuttle is still docked with Destiny.

Again, this is Dr. Rush.

I need assistance
with the docking procedure.

I know you can hear me.

Have we responded yet?

No, not yet.

Well, best not to keep me waiting.

Hello, this is also Dr. Nicholas Rush.
How can we be of assistance?

RUSH'S VOICE: Tell them not to try
and dial Earth. It won't work.

If they go through with it,
they're all going to die.

This is Colonel Young.
Dr. Rush is sitting right next to me.

Yes, obviously. We've just spoken.

The only reasonable explanation is that
somehow I've come back through time.

Reasonable explanation?

I couldn't be sure until I
seen you dropping out of FTL,

which happened roughly 12 hours ago
in my timeline.

YOUNG: And we're supposed to
just take your word for this?

Shortly after we dropped out of FTL,
Colonel, you asked me for a number.

I told you 10, plus two.

Twelve?

That's well calculated, Mr. Volker,
but I think you're missing the point here.

Is that true?
Did you just have that conversation?

Yeah. Yeah, we did.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

It's weird.
I was completely stoked about this mission.

Yeah, we all were.

All of a sudden I can't wait to see my kid.

Wow. Gosh, and I thought
the hardest thing was going to be

introducing you to my mom.

Okay, that makes me more nervous
than going through the dang gate.

Hey, when we get back,
we're all still gonna hang out, right?

- Yeah, of course we will.
- We will have a reunion every year.

I was thinking more along
the lines of Fridays.

Depends on whether
you're stationed Earth-side.

I can guarantee you
that Earth will be my station.

But you're joining Stargate Command.

(CHUCKLING) Like they're gonna ask me.

They'll ask you, Eli.

You'll be right up there
with the other SGC brainiacs,

like Dr. Jackson and Colonel Carter,

and, uh, what was that guy's name
who kept staring at your...

Ugh, McKay.

Yeah, McKay.
They'll ask you right when we get back.

YOUNG: Lieutenant Scott, come in.

Yes, sir, is there a problem?

Yeah. Join up with Greer,
head to Shuttle Bay 2.

Open it.

(DOOR UNLOCKING)

SCOTT: Easy!

Don't listen to him!
He's gonna try and kill you all!

What in the hell?

T.J., this is Young.

Yes, sir, the gang's all here.

Yeah, they're going to have to wait.
We need you in the infirmary.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

- How did you get the burn?
- There was an overload.

I couldn't stop it.

Explosions all over the ship
one after another.

The air became so toxic,
I had no choice but to abandon.

And at which point, you somehow
went back 12 hours in time?

No, no, no, that would
have to happen inside the star.

The ship itself must have passed
very near a solar flare,

in the exact moment
we locked the ninth chevron address.

A temporal event, like we've seen,
cause time travel through wormholes.

It somehow affected the entire ship.

One of those unpredictable things
I remember warning you about.

What are you smiling at?

Well, you should know.

What, fascinating, is it?

Well, you wouldn't think so if you'd
been through what I've been through.

Well, I won't have to now, will I?

Look, we can still do this
if we could just learn from your mistakes.

My mistakes? The only mistake
was trying it in the first place!

No, no, wait a second, she's right.

Just because it went wrong
the first time round...

Wait, isn't it the same time again?

No, not entirely.

We'd end up with two of us
staying behind next time.

If we kept going long enough,
we'd soon have an entire crew.

We still have an hour
before we run Eli's program.

Tell us what happened.

Up to the point you received
my radio signal, you know what happened.

I need a number.

I'll say a dozen.

Plus you and me?

No, including us.

So, 10.

Yeah, look, I've written down
most of what I intend to say.

If you've got anything
you might want to add...

So, I'll speak when you're done.
But just so we're clear,

if we don't get the 10 volunteers...

We will.

Okay.

You were true to your word, Colonel.

You stood alongside me.

Ladies and gentlemen,
if I could have your attention, please?

Dr. Rush would like to say a few words.

My friends...

(MAN CLEARS THROAT)

Well, yes, perhaps that's an overstatement,

but we are at least shipmates,

who have, up until now,
shared great adversity.

I know a lot of you, probably most of you,

also share the hope of going home.

It is a fact that the
conditions inside a star

bode very poorly for the sustained
viability of a wormhole,

and I owe it to you all to tell you that.

Stop trying to scare people
and get on with this.

The Ancients did not devote

the efforts of an entire generation
to build this ship on a whim.

Neither was Destiny named on a whim.

Over a million years ago,

the Ancients discovered
a complex structure

buried deep within
the background radiation,

the fingerprints of an intelligence

that existed very near the beginning
of time itself.

Destiny was launched
in search of that intelligence.

Who knows how close we are to finding it?

How close we are to learning,
in the Ancients' words,

"The destiny of all things."

I don't pretend to know
when that's going to be,

in which stars it will happen,

or even how that will change
our view of the universe.

I only know that Destiny
has come this far,

and if we abandon her now,

there'll be no coming back.

All of that knowledge will be lost forever.

I believe this journey
is the reason I'm here,

but I can't hope to do it alone.

I ask you to come with me.

Now, I believe that those of you
who want to go home

deserve that chance.

But I joined Stargate Command for a reason,

so I, too, am willing to stay aboard.

What we are looking for are 10 volunteers,

so I am asking,

those of you who want to be here,

please step forward.

TELFORD: All right, listen to me!

You've already accomplished
the damn mission!

Our goal was to investigate
the ninth chevron address,

and you've done that.

Now, I do not deny that
there once was a mission,

but if it was as important
as Rush claims it to be,

they sure as hell couldn't
expect us to do it.

There is no noble voyage
to save the universe or to meet God,

or whatever it is that
Rush has sold you on!

There is only the day that this ship dies!

David, we don't know that.

I've got a good mind to try
to take you all back by force.

Good luck with that.

Those of you still taking part
in the evacuation

are going to form two lines.

Everything we carry with us
becomes a projectile

in a nine-chevron transit,

so we are going home with the clothes
on our backs, nothing more.

Eli has warned them to expect us,
but it seems that a radio signal

does not reach across
a nine chevron connection,

so I'll go first to warn them
that we're on our way.

You will follow in three-second intervals,
two at a time.

Eli, are we ready?

Yeah, the program's all set.
You're good to go.

Fifteen minutes, people, and we go home!

And 15 minutes after that, you were dead.

If all those people stayed aboard,
why were you the only survivor?

I told you, there was an overload.

It doesn't matter.
We have a second chance now.

You just need to tell us what went wrong,

what can we do differently.

Eli's program is based on precise timing
in the recharging process.

A time which is fast approaching.

All right, so you dialed
the ninth chevron and...

And it worked. We made the connection.

Chevron nine is locked!

Wait three seconds, then follow me!

(DEVICE BLEEPING)

- No, no, wait, wait!
- YOUNG: Stop!

(ALL MUTTERING)

- What is it?
- The wormhole's unstable.

See for yourself.

- Well, shut it down.
- I can't.

One of the mains blew out,
my program can't compensate.

We'll have to configure
the power levels on the fly.

Yes, Eli, that's what I'm doing.
I've almost got it.

YOUNG: Everybody, stand by!

(BLEEPING)

That's as stable as we're gonna get.

Okay, go, go, go!

(ALL CLAMORING)

(RUMBLING)

(ALARM BEEPING)
It's beginning to overload!

Well, we were supposed to be gone by now!

We can't stay ahead of this!

We're losing her!

That's it, everyone, we're going through!
Let's go!

All right, you heard him.
Let's go! Come on!

Eli, there's nothing more you can do.

Eli, get the hell out of here!

- Rush...
- I can't maintain a stable connection,

and argue with you at the same time.
Now, please go.

Go!

I don't really know how
long I stayed there.

It felt like hours.

I kept waiting for the end to come,
but Destiny fought to stay alive.

How are you sure that we...
They all didn't make it?

(SCOFFS)

I didn't say they all didn't make it.

(EXPLODING)

I'm Dr. Rush.
How many of them made it through?

I'm sorry, sir. Only one, hours ago.

He's been waiting to switch with someone
to see why the others didn't follow.

(ALARMS BLARING)

The connection was made,

but you were the only one
who made it through to Earth.

(ALL CHATTERING)

We were told we'd be leaving
for Earth by now.

What's happening?

Some funky, funky stuff, man.

YOUNG ON RADIO:
Lieutenant Scott, come in.

Sir, you are cutting it awful close here.

Stand down, Lieutenant,
we've decided not to go ahead.

- You've got to be kidding me.
- SCOTT: Sir?

We have reason to believe the evacuees
will not make it through alive.

Send everyone to their quarters.

Understood.

- You made the right decision.
- Yeah, about bloody time.

I want to use the stones
to confirm his story.

Well, we've never used
the stones inside a star,

and I don't think now is
the time to start it,

but I'll tell you what,

you can go talk to yourself
once we're safely on the other side.

(SCOFFS) Safely.

I think now we all need
to be on the bridge.

Oh, well, at least I'll have someone
to engage in a decent conversation.

There it is.

YOUNG: Well, I think that's confirmation,
don't you?

We're altering course and accelerating.

But we're close enough
to get a decent look at her.

There but for the grace of God, huh?

It's my fault.

Everybody on that ship died because of me.

Yeah, well, the only reason
we're even in this situation

is because you were all trying to save me.

Do you guys see what I see?

What?

The damage is confined mostly
to the engineering spaces.

The main living compartments look intact.

So?

I've got an idea.

Out of the way, out of the way!
Move, move, move!

You just said it was
falling back toward the star.

- That was me, actually.
- Okay...

I'm telling you,
we need to get over to that ship.

It might be worth the risk if we can
salvage ammunition, food, supplies...

No, no, that's not what
he's talking about...

- Well, what is it, then?
- Spare parts. I had the same idea.

I ran the whole way, too, so... (PANTING)

Hmm.

How much time do we have
before we're out of range?

Well, we can't take a shuttle,
the other ship is too close to the star,

and Destiny is accelerating away.

We can arrange a short FTL jump,
use the stargate.

It's the same gate. Can it dial itself?

I don't see why not.

Destiny's address isn't based
on a fixed point in space.

We'll have to input the
distance calculation,

but you guys should be able
to work that out, right?

Yeah, between me, Eli, and me.

All right, well, let's, uh,
let's start putting together a list.

Yeah.

I'd like to lead the team over there.

I should go as well.
I'm the only one who knows

which systems were affected
by the overload.

Listen, Rush, I don't even know
if that's what I should call you.

Well, it is my name.

Fine. What I'm trying to say is that
you've been through hell and back.

You don't got to do this.

The man wants to help, Everett,
let him help.

We're gonna need all hands for this.

Okay.

These are priority number one!

We want as many
as we can get our hands on.

This one's burnt out. This one's good.

Now, they're in every console, power relay,

and pretty much every piece of equipment
aboard the ship.

Open 'em up, pull 'em out and move on.

What do you call those things?

I don't know... "Things that make it go."

We should find concentrations
of working parts in the bridge,

control interface
and neural interface rooms.

Number two, these things,
and don't ask me what they're called.

I'm not even sure how they work.

We also have to get our hands
on the other repair robot,

and shield emitter relays.

We'll get everything on the list.

If there's still time, we'll move on
to our secondary objectives.

Yeah, how much time do we have?

We'll assess that once we're aboard.

The conditions will be difficult
and they will be dangerous,

but make no mistake,
we need to salvage these things

if we are going to survive.

Dial the gate. Everyone step back.

(DIALING GATE)

Send the Kino.

It's getting hot already,
but the air is still breathable.

I'd call it a green light.

Let's move.

(ALARM BLARING IN DISTANCE)

Form into your teams and standby.

Okay, I'm reading power and life support

in both the bridge
and Control Interface Room.

Forty minutes till the shield fails.

TELFORD: Then that's the time we have.

Lieutenant, that means your team
heads straight to the armory.

Got it.

You know your assignments, let's go!

This is Telford. We are proceeding.
40 minutes on the clock.

Okay, let's go.

- David, be careful.
- Will do.

Someone should report
to Homeworld Command,

explain what's been going on.

Well, you go ahead, and when you're back,

you can explain it to me.

They must think we're all dead.

- It didn't happen.
- Yeah, it did.

Not to us, Eli.

You can say anything you like.
Tell me to take one timeline at a time,

but if Rush wasn't sent back
by a freak of physics,

we'd all be dead by now.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

(ALARM BEEPING)
VOLKER: I'll start here.

SCOTT: Let's make this quick. Spread out.

VOLKER: Over here, guys.

Want to try to get that alarm off?

(EXPLODING)

JOHANSEN: Start at the back!

Guess we're not going in there.

So, this must be pretty weird
for you two, huh?

Yes.

Half the ones I'm pulling are burnt out
from the overload.

I'll take what we can get.

Go get your CO2 nodes.
We need to breathe, too.

VOLKER: Penhall, you're with me.

That's half time, start packing it up!

Get back to the stargate,
quickly as you can. Go!

- Gettin' hot, huh?
- Yeah, but it's a dry heat.

(RUMBLING)

All right, that's it,
we're out of here. Move.

Get back to the Gate Room. Double time!

- How we doing?
- We eat tonight.

- Excellent. Get out of here.
- Pack it up.

Come on, let's go.

All right, that's it, let's go!

What do you think?

I think it's not on our list.

It could double the amount of weapons
we could bring online.

Do we even have time for this?

Colonel, we've come across
a piece of equipment

that could significantly increase
our weapons capability,

but we're up against the clock.

TELFORD: For that,
we should risk it!

For once, he agrees with me.

Okay, I'll go and I'll bring back
the proper tools.

Be careful not to touch the damaged one.

About 1000 volts running through that.

Do you think I might know that?

Didn't mean to sneak up on you. This is it?

Yeah. The others took the parts
we had back to the Gate Room.

My younger self is coming back to help,
but I don't want to wait for him.

You don't trust him either, huh?

So what went wrong?
(SIGHS) What are you talking about?

Not that I think you would
kill them all deliberately.

I tried to save them!

You don't think I buy that story?

Rush valiantly keeping the gate open
while the ship explodes all around him?

I don't care what you think.

It wouldn't be the first time
you sabotaged the ship

to make an ass out of me, would it?

The last time we tried to dial Earth

from inside a star comes to mind,
among others.

- So, what went wrong?
- The wormhole was unstable!

I'm talking about what really happened.

Their blood is on your hands, not mine.

They would all have made it home,
but you did something!

I was trying to buy them some time!

Oh, and there's not a single person
left alive to confirm that...

Get your hands off of me!
You're the coward!

You're the one
who didn't believe in the mission!

You're the one that killed them!

(SIZZLING)

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

SCOTT: All right, right over here!

Hey, Rush, where's your other, uh...

He's found something
for the weapons systems.

- There's no time!
- We still have time.

- I'm just going back to help.
- All right, I'll go with you!

Dial the gate and keep it open for us.
T.J., get these people out of here.

Don't stay too long!

All right, everybody, move out,
we're going to dial the gate!

They're dialing back.

Good. That was fast.

I wasn't finished reporting,

but when Colonel Telford found out
that we were still here,

he insisted that he be allowed
to use the stones

to switch with someone, preferably himself.

That's weird.

Yeah, well, that can wait.
At least they know we're alive.

(EXPLOSION)

Oh, no.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

Lieutenant Scott, where the hell are you?

SCOTT: Going after something
that's supposed to double

the weapons capability, sir.

Negative. You don't have time for that.
I need you to locate Colonel Telford.

He's not answering his radio.

Roger that, sir, we're
comin' right around...

Scott, say again? You were cut off.

We found the Colonel, sir. He's dead.

YOUNG: Where's Rush?

He's right beside me.
I don't know where the other one is.

I do.

Hey, hey, Rush!

Sir, Rush just ran off on me.

- Let him go.
- Sir!

You only have a few minutes
before the shield fails.

Let him go, that is an order, Lieutenant.

It was an accident.

I believe you, but they won't.

No.

Tell me, when you, uh, dialed Earth,

what really happened?

I told you what happened.

And so now you're trying to decide
whether or not to sit in that chair.

Well, wouldn't you, in my place?

I'm not sure if even the knowledge
of the Ancients can help you now.

Well, I really don't have anything
to lose at this point.

Imagine what I could learn.

Well, you won't have much time.

Well, time's relative.
We've just proved that, haven't we?

So, what are you waiting for?

I need your help.

Thank you.

Goodbye.

(EXPLOSION)

Come on, come on, come on!

You're welcome.

(PANTING) I'm okay, I'm okay.

Nicholas.

Yeah?

Where's the other Rush?

- I don't know.
- You told Scott you knew where he went.

I was wrong.
I went looking for him, couldn't find him.

Maybe he decided to go down with his ship.

That doesn't sound like me.

Still, you must, uh...
You must be pleased about one thing.

What's that?

Well, we can fix the ship,
get on with the mission.

Yeah, of course.

Get on with the mission.
