All language subtitles for Stargate SG-1 - S06E10 REMUX.eng

Calm yourself,
commander.

We are about to meet
an alien race in person

for the first time.

If you are correct, they
are more advanced than us

and capable of being
a significant threat.

That gives me good reason
to be on the highest alert.

Since the discovery
of the temple ruins,

we have had reason to believe

that there are other
inhabited planets in the galaxy,

and now, finally,
we have our proof.

I, for one,
am relieved

that the very first
contact we have made

is with a race of humans that
seem to be very much like us.

Maybe you trust them
without suspicion, but I cannot.

Nevertheless, commander,
we must proceed.

They are sending their most
respected team of representatives.

No doubt, the leader
of this group

will be a brilliant
and savvy negotiator.

We must be at our best
to match the challenge.

Personally,
I cannot wait

to meet a man
of such genius.

Howdy, folks.

Nice.

Thank you, colonel.

We would be happy
to take you

on a full tour
of our city,

but first, we would
like to spend a little time

talking about
our mutual interests,

so please,
please sit.

To be honest, we are still
trying to adjust to the fact

that our Stargate,
as you call it,

is no longer a mere
relic of a bygone era.

Obviously, it was
quite a shock

when your communication
machine appeared last month.

First contact
can be somewhat unnerving.

We are all very pleased

to finally get the chance
to talk face to face.

From our study
of the ancient temple,

we have been able
to deduce the Stargate

was an interplanetary
transportation device.

But we haven't determined
how to make a connection

with the many worlds described
in the writings in the temple.

It took us a while
to get the hang of it, too.

We know that the symbols on
the Stargate itself are the key,

but as for the number
and sequence to enter

in the dialing device...

We can definitely
help you out there.

Once we get to know
you a little better.

Oh, yes,
well, of course.

We intend to allow
you full access

to our citizens, our
history, our culture,

so that you may
come to trust us.

I hope we can
reciprocate.

We also want to
make it clear

that we intend to offer
all that we can in trade

for any knowledge
or technology

that you are
willing to share.

Qu'est-ce que c'est?

We call it tretonin,
colonel.

It Is our greatest
scientific discovery.

How so?

Major Carter,

from what you have
told me about your world,

your people suffer
from a myriad of illnesses.

Many of them
are untreatable.

Tretonin makes
our immune systems

impervious to any ailment.

We live in perfect health.

What is it you hope
to achieve here,

Jonas Quinn?

If we're going to learn
about these people,

the best place to start's
at the beginning.

Earthans.

Uh, earthlings...

Sort of.

I am zenna valk,

supervisor of the temple
research project.

It Is a pleasure
to meet the explorers

from the planet earth.

Well, we're not
originally from there.

However, we have dedicated
ourselves

to the cause of the tauri.

Uh, earth.

Am I at least correct
in assuming you are Jaffa?

Indeed.

I cannot tell you

how exciting this is.

We have learned much
from the discovery of this site,

but it must pale in comparison
to what you can teach us.

I don't know about that,
but we'd love it if

you showed us around.

By all means.
That was my intention.

We first discovered
these ruins

over a hundred years ago,

and since then,

we've dedicated ourselves

to studying the secrets

the Goa'uld left behind.

This area was obviously
some sort of

reception colonnade

for greeting travelers

who came through the Stargate.

The real discovery

was made just over here.

Although we fully
admit tretonin is not

without side effects,

we assure you,

the good it can do

far outweighs

any negative
aspects.

What kind of side effects

are we talking about exactly?

It depends
on the individual.

Most people experience
almost no reaction to it.

Those who do
merely require

more regulated doses.

We'll need a decent
amount for testing.

On earth,
of course.

Yes, certainly.

Of course,
we will need something

in return from you

as a measure
of good faith.

We've been authorized to
give you these 10 addresses

and a rudimentary lesson
in gate technology.

These are all
peaceful worlds,

safe from hostile forces,

rich with historical relics
and natural resources.

Well, this is a very
generous offer, major,

very generous, however,

based on our own studies

of the writings in the temple,
we have compiled a list

of the names of the worlds
that we would like to visit.

Do you recognize any of these?

Well, I'll have to cross-reference
the Goa'uld names

with our database
of Stargate addresses,

but offhand, I recognize
these three, sir.

They're classified off-limits,

Goa'uld homeworlds.

Yeah, fellas,

you really don't
want to go here.

Not exactly
a walk in the park.

You know what I mean?

We know the Goa'uld
are a hostile race

that once ruled
this planet.

Centuries ago

all right, you're new to this,

so I'll cut you a break.

Those are the worlds
we wish to explore.

We believe that they are

significant to our history.

Look, guys, we're not lying
to you about this.

You don't want to go
there first time out.

Trust me.

If you have been
to these worlds

and survived,
can we not?

All I'm trying to say to you
is it would be stupid.

We are aware of the risks
and believe the rewards

are worth the
potential consequences,

as you and your people
obviously do, colonel.

Please, colonel,

in exchange for the tretonin,

we are simply asking
that you respect our wishes.

There is an underground
tunnel system

that leads to
the main temple.

It Is most likely
a means of escape

to the Stargate
in case of attack.

That's exactly
what I thought.

Please.

The writing in this chamber

seems to tell the story

of the Goa'uld

who once ruled here.

We've been attempting to
decipher this section of the wall

for many months,

thus far with
limited success.

It Is written in a rare
dialect of ancient Goa'uld,

an account
of the warlord shak'ran.

He was a system lord who was
eventually defeated by apophis

about 300 years ago.

Indeed.

Until his defeat, it appears pangar
served as shak'ran's homeworld.

And what of the Goa'uld apophis,
the one who conquered shak'ran?

He was killed in battle
not long ago.

As I expected, you have
much wisdom to share.

Teal'c and I will be
more than happy

to help you out
with the translations.

I've got at least a dozen
ancient ciphers I can try.

Please, I do not wish
to be overheard

by the pangar
security contingent.

There is something
you need to know

about the tretonin.

Please come with me
and I will finish showing you

the rest of the ruins.

I will try to talk
to you later.

She said there was
something we needed to know

about the tretonin.

She seemed to be worried
about these guys,

like she was going way out
on a limb just talking to us

about something other
than Goa'uld hieroglyphs.

All right.
You guys keep digging.

See what you can find.

Carter and I
will take this sample

back to the SGC.

Jonas.

Dr. Valk.

Please,
call me zenna.

How's it coming?

It's slow and painstaking.

Any help you're
willing to give me...

Certainly. I brought those
ciphers I was telling you about.

Looks like we're alone.

What do you
suppose this means?

You said there was something
we needed to know

about the tretonin.

I'm sorry.
You must have misunderstood.

No, I think
you were pretty clear.

No one's coming.

Teal'cis up there
standing guard.

You can talk to me.

I don't have
anything to say.

Hey, zenna,
if you know something...

No, I don't.

That was strange.

What did zenna valk
have to say?

Nothing.

Someone must have
gotten to her.

Right away.

I think I've got
something here.

She's on tretonin
herself.

It looks like she has regular
appointments to get injections.

Continue.

I was thinking
we go and check out

the place they get
their shots.

I found a map of the city. I'm
pretty sure I can get us there.

Let's dot.

Looks like this is actually
where they make the drug,

as well as administer it.

This way.

What is it?

I am not sure.

Well, something tells me
this isn't the rec room.

No, it is not.

There's something
living in there.

Goa'uld symbiotes.

Are you sure?

Yes,

and there are
a great many.

What are they doing?

Who's there?

Identify yourselves.

Stop!

Teal'c!

He's got one in him.

Stand aside.

Lower your weapon!

This man is a Goa'uld.

Teal'c, something's not right.

This guy's
completely out of it.

Lower your
weapon now!

Would you care to tell us what you
were doing at the tretonin facility?

You want to tell us why you have
a pool full of Goa'uld symbiotes?

You have betrayed
our openness with you.

Openness?

You're raising goa'ulds.

When were you
going to tell us that?

The symbiotes
are a critical component

to making tretonin.

Excuse me?

It Is a complicated process,

one which is better explained
by our scientists.

Quite frankly, we intended to
tell you how the tretonin was made

eventually.

We just wanted to first assess
how you might react.

Not well.

I don't know why you're
taking such offense.

You've told us yourselves,

the Goa'uld are mortal enemies

who have enslaved
countless humans.

Where is the harm in using
them to enhance our quality of life?

Do you really understand
the risks involved?

We have been using
the same method

to produce tretonin
for nearly 30 years.

We take every
precaution possible

to protect our people.

How were these
symbiotes procured?

Yeah, for people who
haven't mastered gate travel,

you've sure got a lot of them.

We would require answers

before sharing any
further information

about the Stargate.

We have already told you
everything that is necessary.

Tegar, the colonel is right.

There is no reason
to keep more secrets.

The drug was developed

and is now manufactured
and administered here,

and since its use has spread

to more of the
general population,

we've implemented
other treatment centers

throughout pangar as well.

Now, through here

is the reason we were
able to create tretonin

in the first place.

The symbiotes were not
procured through gate travel.

Our symbiotes are all bred
here in captivity.

A queen.

No kidding.

Is there nothing you
can do to help him?

What's his condition?

Well, his lower-brain
functions seem to be intact,

his breathing and
heart rate are normal,

but he is
completely unresponsive

to any stimulus.

It doesn't make sense.

Teal'c?

Prior to the process of
incubating Goa'uld symbiotes

using Jaffa,

the blending
between Goa'uld and host

had only a one-in-two
chance of success.

The Jaffa were created
for the very reason

of improving
the ability of the symbiote

to take human hosts.

So the fact
that this symbiote

was raised in a tank

could explain
the coma-like state?

To the best of my knowledge,

a failed blending
results in death

to both Goa'uld and host.

This man is very much alive.

Our understanding is that
this is atypical reaction

to contact
with Goa'uld offspring.

A Goa'uld offspring is born

with the intellect and knowledge
of the queen who bore it.

Normally, the fully developed
personality would emerge,

allowing the symbiote
to control the host

immediately upon blending.

Glowing eyes, clichebehavior,

evilness,
that kind of thing.

This one
is more of a blank slate.

Is it possible

that the production
and raising process

has somehow, well, hindered
the development of the symbiote?

This I do not know.

Colonel, I recommend
we contact the tok'ra.

They may have a
deeper understanding

into this man's condition,
and in the very least,

they might be able to take
the symbiote out of him.

I'm sorry,
who are the tok'ra?

Basically, they're an
offshoot of the Goa'uld

who oppose them
philosophically in every way.

You propose
to bring these Goa'uld here?

They're very different.

They co-exist with their hosts

in a much truer
symbiotic relationship.

They are,
in fact, allies.

And they can help?

We'll see.

Hi.

Hello.

I have an
admission to make.

You know Teal'c and I
tracked down the tretonin facility.

Yes, I heard.

Yeah.

Well, I did it by going
through your stuff

when you weren't here.

I was wrong.

I know.

Well, you know
it was wrong or...

I know what you did.

I saw you.
Really?

'Cause I thought
that we were...

Not so good.

No?

But you didn't
try and stop us.

No. I wanted you to know.

In some ways, I'm glad
you did what you did.

In others, I'm disappointed

you were so willing
to betray me.

You know, never would
have done this

had you not come to me first.

I should have
told you outright.

I was afraid.

Tretonin is not available

to everyone in pangar yet.

Taking it is a privilege...

One that can be revoked.

I hope I didn't
get you in trouble.

No,

but our relationship,

our people's relationship,

if we ever are
to trust each other...

We're not off
to Avery good start.

I know.

You could make it up to me.

How?

Help me finish the
translations in the tomb.

It Is as though the
symbiote within this man

has taken a host before it
was mature enough to do so.

And yet our scans
indicate it to be

a full-grown adult.

Most puzzling.

Can you account
for its lack of identity?

As you know, memory
is passed on genetically

by the queen,
allowing them to be born

with the collective
knowledge of their lineage.

It is possible that
the queen that spawned him

was unable to pass on this
information to her progeny.

Unable?

The knowledge
imparted on her young

by a queen
is done so voluntarily.

If nothing were passed on
to this symbiote,

it would be,
as you say,

an empty vessel.

Can you remove it
without harming the host?

Possibly,

although such a procedure
would be dangerous.

We would like to see the queen
that spawned this Goa'uld.

Not a pretty sight,

even for a Goa'uld,

she is extremely old.

She has been kept in
this manner for decades?

According to
the pangarans,

they began using her for medical
experiments over 50 years ago.

She's been breeding
symbiotes to make tretonin

for more than half
that time.

All right, now,
how is that possible?

I mean, how does she
make kids without a...

Man friend?

Symbiote queens are able
to fertilize their own eggs.

It Is essentially
an asexual process.

Is that why you
guys take hosts?

It Is impressive that a
primitive human culture

could develop this process
of creating such a drug.

Does it bother
you at all

that they use
goa'ulds like this?

No.

Okay.

The Goa'uld have done
no worse than this

to humans
for centuries.

That the pangarans
can use them

for a beneficial result
is surprising,

but not morally
objectionable to me,

if that's
what you mean.

I believe
her condition

is the reason her offspring
are not mentally developed.

Most unfortunate.

What is it?

My scans indicate massive
cellular degeneration.

Quite simply,
she is dying.

I am sorry, colonel,

but the pangarans
totally sugarcoated

the whole side effect
aspect of the drug.

Well, that's a shock,
isn't it?

While tretonin does appear
to cure most diseases,

it ultimately creates far
bigger problems than it solves.

How so?

The drug acts like a
symbiote in many ways.

Upon entering the user's
bloodstream, it immediately takes over,

completely suppressing the
normal human immune system.

The result is apowerful
resistance to disease.

But...

The healing effect
is not permanent,

and the user's own immune
system remains suppressed.

Basically, you have to keep
taking the drug for it to work.

Considering
how it's made,

we'd never create enough
to sustain our population.

I don't know how the pangarans
can make enough for their population.

They don't. Only
about 20% are on it,

and they seem to be
running into a wall

as far as production
is concerned.

They've sucked
the queen dry, doc.

According to the tok'ra,
she's dying.

As far as I know, there's no
way to reverse the drug's effects.

If their queen is dying
as you say,

it's just a matter of time before
anyone currently living off tretonin

will be facing death
as well.

Okay?

O'Neill out.

So you wanted the gate
addresses to the Goa'uld worlds

because you wanted
to snag another queen?

Colonel, we have no choice
but to replace the one we have.

Exactly how did you get
to this point?

60 years ago,

our archaeologists discovered a
secret chamber beneath the temple.

We found a sealed
canopic jar

containing a living female symbiote
perfectly preserved in stasis.

From our study
of the temple,

we knew the Goa'uld never
suffered from illness or disease.

We saw this discovery as
an opportunity to learn why.

Of course,
once the queen gave birth,

we immediately
began experimenting

on her offspring's
physiology,

searching for
a way to mimic

their seemingly perfect
immune system.

After decades of trying, we
finally came up with tretonin.

It seemed like a miracle
at first.

Couldn't your scientists
foresee the negative effects?

Of course.

What we couldn't predict was
our inability to refine the drug.

We were confident that
we could solve the problems.

We limited the use,
but ultimately,

we didn't see why we shouldn't
begin to reap the benefits

while working to overcome
the downside.

We know the risks
in confronting the Goa'uld,

but tens of thousands of lives
will be lost if we do nothing.

Perhaps you could
assist us.

Now, you have faced
the Goa'uld many times.

Your knowledge could give us
a tactical advantage.

No.

There is no tactical advantage
when you're dealing with the Goa'uld.

We've stayed ahead
of the game

only because we don't bite off
more than we can chew...

Usually.

Besides, we need to get you off
the tretonin, not find another source.

Our scientists have
been trying for years

to find a way
to reverse its effects.

We've made
very little progress.

We need more time.

Or more help.

This is
important to you.

More so than just
curiosity about your history.

As you now know,

the tretonin may not be
available to us for much longer,

and when we run out, those
of us taking it are going to die.

Not if we can help you
find some kind of antidote.

Do you think
that's possible?

Anything's possible.

If we could find
a new queen...

Long term.

I know it's not the answer, but
it could buy us a little more time

until another option
is available.

This has been
my life's work,

my father's life's work.

Your father?

My father was the one who found
the jar that contained the queen.

He was attempting
to remove

a section of the temple ruins
for further study

when he literally stumbled
into the chamber.

Of course, he had no way
of knowing that his discovery

would eventually doom
so many people.

The result is
not his fault.

No.

Teal'c?

Didn't you say this temple
was built by shak'ran?

It was.

Then why does this section
of the fresco mention ra?

Who's ra?

Ra was a powerful system
lord, brother of apophis.

He, too, is dead.

Well, according to this...

Ra used to live here.

We will examine the drug.

If it acts
as I suspect,

it may be impossible
to perfect

as the pangarans
would hope.

The best we might
be able to do

is essentially
provide an antidote

that will allow their normal
immune systems to regenerate.

They would not possess the
superior health they do now.

And how long would it
take to go from theoretical

to enough for everyone?

We can make no promises,
colonel O'Neill.

However, as you say,
we are in your debt.

We will begin immediately.

It Is possible that
shak'ran captured this world

from ra in battle.

And built this
entire temple

on top whatever ra
had here before.

It goes on to say
something about this

being some kind
of prison...

Or tomb...

For one of ra's enemies.

Wait a minute.

"Here lies...

"Egeria,

"betrayer
of the Goa'uld.

"May she...

"Suffer

"for all...

"Eternity.

Egeria...

Dr. Jackson's notes
mentioned her.

Isn't she supposed to
have been killed?

Indeed she was,

but this would seem
to indicate otherwise.

That means...

The queen the pangarans
are breeding is not Goa'uld.

She is the origin
of the tok'ra.

This could be
a problem.

Are you sure?

The writings in the
chamber are extremely clear.

From what we can piece
together, ra used this planet

as his base of operations
in this sector of the galaxy.

Centuries later,

a rival Goa'uld named shak'ran
captured this world in battle,

forcing ra to abandon it.

The question is do we
tell malek and kelmaa?

How can we not tell them?

If we remain silent, the pangarans
will continue to use egeria

as a source for their drug
until she is dead.

If we don't find a way
to get them off the drug,

they're going to die
eventually, anyway.

We have to tell them.

Please understand

we had no idea who
she was until now.

It is hard to believe.

Many of our historians
speculated

that ra did not kill egeria,
as was widely believed,

but...

We never dared hope
that she would ever be found.

She must be freed
immediately, of course.

Every moment that she
is kept in this condition

is an affront
to the tok'ra.

We're going to talk
to the pangarans now.

It would help if you had
something to offer them.

Like, say, an antidote?

Unfortunately, finding
an antidote to the tretonin

may be more problematic
than we had first hoped.

And why is that?

There is
something unusual

about the genetic structure
of the symbiotes

beyond their lack
of knowledge.

The tretonin should be
working far better than it does,

and we're not sure
why it doesn't.

We cannot seem to identify
the defective gene

that is causing its effects
to break down.

But we can say you'll
solve this eventually, right?

At this moment, all I
can say is, it is a mystery.

What,
you're suddenly stumped?

I understand the
implication, colonel.

This revelation about egeria

is in no way affecting
our analysis of the tretonin.

As of right now,
we cannot help the pangarans.

We could not
have known.

Surely the tok'ra don't
hold us directly responsible?

They're demanding the
immediate release of their queen.

How could we?

It would doom thousands
without a remedy.

The tok'ra have suffered great
losses in the last little while.

Their numbers
are severely diminished.

Restoring egeria's health may be
their only hope of survival as a people.

Have they made
no progress at all

in reversing the effects
of tretonin?

I'm sorry, but you
ask the impossible.

She is our queen. Her freedom
is not open for negotiation.

We deeply regret
who she is,

but freeing her would mean
death for many of our people.

Unless, of course,
you can offer an alternative.

Malek and kelmaa
are having trouble

locating
a particular element

in the symbiotes'
genetic structure.

Obviously,
until they do,

the chances of synthesizing
an antidote are slim.

Then we have no choice.

You do not understand.

Her existence is a miracle
to the tok'ra.

We are also a dying race.

You may lose thousands.
Our kind will become extinct.

I am sympathetic
to the tok'ra,

but what you are asking of us
would amount to a holocaust.

She is
a sentient being.

Using her
in this manner

is an insult to
our very existence.

Someone has breached security
in the manufacturing wing.

What has she done?

Oh, is that...

Was that...

Kelmaa has given her life
for our queen.

Her host belongs
to egeria now.

I'll bet the pangarans
would give up the queen

if the tok'ra would
hand over the antidote.

You think they know how
to save the pangarans

and are withholding
a cure?

To get what they wanted,
yeah, sure.

Sir, with all due
respect, I disagree.

Carter, they're pissed off.

Wouldn't you be?

They just discovered that the
founder of their race has been abused

for the sake of medical
experimentation for over 50 years.

Oh, come on, Carter,
face it.

For all their high morals

and fancy preaching
about co-existing with humans,

we are
just a nice place to live.

I don't think that they would
just lie outright

and doom thousands
of innocent people.

That tok'ra laying
on that table just did.

Egeria has awakened.

Egeria, it Is an honor.

Rise, malek.

You are not
my servant.

Kelmaa was generous

in giving her life to free me,

but I am afraid
It is too late.

Save your strength,
my queen.

Your people need you,
now more than ever.

Kelmaa's assessment

of my condition was
correct, malek.

My time
is almost done.

I shall not live
long enough

to see more
of my children.

My host has shared
her knowledge

of the tok'ra with me.

You are beyond
my greatest hopes

and dreams.

These are the tauri

who ally themselves
with the tok'ra.

I know.

Come forward.

My host tells me you
seek to help the pangarans,

despite what they
have done to me.

This has all been
a terrible mistake,

but not a malicious act.

Nor was mine,
major Carter.

You know, back
on my home planet,

my people discovered
a substance

that had an incredible
potential to generate energy.

After years of research

and a serious lack
of moral fortitude...

They used it to make a bomb...

That being
the reason I left,

but the point is...

Your people had
good intentions.

We thought we had found
the cure for all disease.

Now it may kill
so many of us.

I am not afraid to die,

but I am afraid that
my people will not

have learned from this.

I think they
already have.

I passed on
the flawed gene

that gave the drug
its weakness.

You were unable
to construct an antidote

because of the manner in
which I sabotaged my young.

I did it in the hope

that they would ultimately
prove useless

to the pangarans.

I wanted to force them
to abandon their research

once the drug
proved untenable.

Instead,
they continued to make it

in ever-increasing quantities.

And now they
can't live without it.

It is not what I intended.

Their fate
is their own doing,

not yours.

You merely tried
to free yourself

the only way you could.

They do not deserve
this end,

not when it
can be prevented.

You created the flaw.

You can create
the antidote

that will save them.

I will tell you
what you need to know.

Thank you.

On behalf of our people,

please, forgive us

for what we have done
to you.

Had we known...

The salvation
of the pangarans

shall be my final act.

Such is the spirit of tok'ra
that I wish to live on.

Malek says
he should have

a prototype of the
antidote ready soon.

We are grateful
for his efforts, major,

and yours.

It Is our hope we will be
able to repair any mistrust

that may have developed
between us,

so that we can pursue
a long-lasting friendship

between our people
far into the future.

Well said.
