Original subtitles

Good morning, campers.

There is damage here.

It appears to have been done by Goa'uld weaponry.

I do not believe this battle took place recently.

No bodies. Carter: Daniel.

You recognize any of these symbols?

No. This place is definitely alien.

Wonder what's behind curtain number two.

Take Carter and check it out.

Teal'c.

You ever see anything like this before?

We must return to earth as quickly as possible.

Why? What is that?

It is the symbol of korosh—ni.

It is for any Goa'uld or jaf'fa who may pass through the gate.

Loosely translated, it means "turn back."

Does it elaborate?

It is placed on worlds Goa'uld destroyers...

Have wiped out and left contaminated.

This planet's entire surface

will be, in your terms, "radioactive."

No one will be left alive.

This place is not safe.

I think this is a lab. How do you know?

These are things they brought back through the Stargate to study.

They're all tagged. This is a turkanese mask.

This is a Clay cone from lagash with cuneiform symbols on it.

O'Neill: Carter? Daniel?

Found the souvenir shop, sir.

We're outta here. What? Why?

This place is a treasure chest of artifacts

from diverse human cultures.

Daniel, I don't wanna hear it. Let's go.

You don't wanna hear it.

O'Neill: Daniel? We're leaving. Let's go!

You guys! I need a hand with this thing.

It's too heavy for me to move, but we have to take it...

Back.

Jack?

Sam?

Teal'c?

I really hate it when this happens.

Man: Close the Iris.

Hands on your head now or we will open fire!

What's going on? Identify yourself.

Daniel Jackson, sg—I.

General, what's this all about?

General?

You see stars anywhere on my uniform?

Colonel, he says he's on sg—I. Colonel?

How did you get an 56—1 remote Iris deactivation device?

What are you talking about?

Man: Unauthorized incoming travelers!

Who the hell are you?

I am Dr. Daniel Jackson, sg—I. I need to see Jack O'Neill.

Ask Sam Carter. Come on!

I am not a Goa'uld.

Don't give me that.

Where's Dr. Fraisier? Don't give me that!

I am Dr. Daniel Jackson.

I need to see colonel O'Neill.

You mean general O'Neill?

Hello!

I have to speak to someone.

Catherine! You know me?

Of course.

You don't know me?

Dr. Daniel Jackson. Linguist. Ancient Egyptian historian.

Better known for some of the more radical ideas.

At the moment, I'm more interested in how you came through my Stargate.

How I—your Stargate?

What the hell is going on here, Catherine?

I'd prefer you address me as Dr. Langford.

You were wearing a remote device

when you came through the gate.

You had sg—I's code. How did you obtain it?

How did I—— How do you think I did it?

I left from here. Stargate command.

Today. A few hours ago.

I went through on a mission to p3r—233.

What are you talking about?

You've never been in this facility until now.

Okay.

I figured out how to work the Stargate.

You recruited me to translate the cartouche found at giza.

I went through on the first mission through the Stargate to abydos.

And unless the last two years

have been some wacky, wacky dream...

I am a member of 56—1.

Not as far as I'm concerned.

What?

I supervised the team that translated the cartouche found at giza.

You did?

I admit we referenced your work occasionally.

I even went to meet you at one of your seminars...

To ask you to join us, but you said no.

I did?

You were quite rude, actually. I was?

The mri confirms you are not a Goa'uld.

Could I see captain Carter? Samantha Carter?

Yes. She's not in the military.

She's a doctor. Ph.D, astrophysics.

She's attending to more important business at the moment.

Don't you have any explanation for this?

God, no! Catherine—...

I mean, Dr. Langford! No, this doesn't make any sense!

I know you. I belong here.

You don't! Excuse me!

You were retired.

At least, the air force made you retire.

You're supposed to be at home, living happily ever after with Ernest.

What?

The man you were supposed to marry in 1945.

We've only got 50 percent of the list through to beta site, general.

Voyageris still en route.

Excuse me, I know you're a little busy right now.

It's all right, Catherine. What is it?

I think you should meet the young man who came through the gate, Jack.

Now? How much time do we have?

Why?

He knows things.

Look, we're in the middle of a situation right now.

I don't know who you are...

But Dr. Langford says you might be able to help us.

This is starting to get a little bit spooky.

A few hours ago, everything about this place was different.

I mean, not completely different. You're still you.

Sort of.

What can you tell me about the goa'ulds?

What? The Goa'uld.

You know who they are? Yeah.

Tell me what you know.

Okay. Maybe I've completely lost my mind here...

But as far as I am concerned, we know each other very well.

You know everything that I know.

Look, I am a member of 56—1 with you,

captain Carter and Teal'c.

Where is Teal'c?

Big guy. Gold emblem on his head. Goa'uld in his stomach.

You can't miss him. Ajaffa?

Yes. He's our friend.

Get this man outta here, now!

How did he come through the gate?

How does he know the things he knows?

Dr. Langford says you solved the gate without me.

Did you still go to abydos to blow up a nuclear device?

How did you know that?

You were willing to commit suicide because your son had recently died.

He shot himself with your gun, right?

I swear I didn't tell him anything.

So did you still go to chulak?

Langford: What is chulak?

The Jaffa home world.

You know the symbols? Yes.

What, you want me to write it down? Yes.

So if you've never been to chulak...

You've probably never even met Teal'c.

Teal? No, Teal'c.

Everything's screwed up! Why?

Sam!

Who is this? Langford: Dr. Jackson.

The young man who came through the Stargate with an 56—1 remote code.

Report, doctor?

We've lost Washington and Philadelphia, sir.

I'm sorry. What do you mean by "lost"?

Show him.

Every one of those red dots is a destroyed city.

Dr. Carter, there's another report coming on.

Man on TV: All military efforts to engage the alien ships...

Have proven inconsequential.

The goa'ulds? The ships appeared four days ago.

They have slowly begun systematically annihilating...

All signs of civilization...

Starting on the east coast...

And moving west with frightening inevitability.

There has been no response...

To attempted communications with the aliens.

Thus far, they have left no survivors...

In the wake of their seemingly unstoppable wave of destruction.

I feel like the victim of the biggest practical joke ever.

You got all this on the alien planet you talked about?

Yeah, with the exception of the gun and the grenade.

I found this lab. They obviously collected things

found on other planets.

There was this mirror, like a slab of rock.

Could have been made of naquadah, the gate element.

Jack called me, said we were leaving.

I touched the mirror.

Interesting. What is it?

I have no idea.

You said you touched a mirror.

Actually, I touched that thing first.

It turned on. I heard a noise.

That's when I noticed the shimmering.

Maybe this is what controls it.

When I touched the mirror, there was this surge.

It was like getting an electrical shock just for a second.

Then I went to find Jack, Sam and Teal'c.

He's the Jaffa you say is on 56—1 with you?

Yes, but I couldn't find them.

It was like they were just gone.

So I figured maybe they left without me...

So I dialed in earth's address and I came through and—...

What the hell are they doing down there?

Man: Chevron one encoding.

Chevron two encoding.

Chevron three encoded.

Sir, isn't our mission to get the Genesis list through to the beta site?

I think we'll try to stop the attack on earth first.

What does she mean, "Genesis list" and "beta site"?

We're evacuating everyone we can to another planet.

World leaders, scientists, doctors.

Chevron five encoded.

You're sending a nuclear weapon to chulak?

You got a problem with that?

The Jaffa aren't your enemy. They're just slaves.

All right. Try to comprehend what's going on here.

We estimate the death toll to earth as 1.5 billion.

Who do you think is flying those ships

trying to blow up our world?

You give me one good reason

why I shouldn't be striking back.

Chevron seven locked.

They have no choice.

Send the bomb. Proceed with deployment.

Iris is locked.

Proceed with evacuation until that next warhead is ready.

You know there are innocent human beings

on most Goa'uld planets?

Unless this man has useful information,

I don't want to see him again.

This isn't happening. This is nuts.

Is it possible...

The Stargate malfunctioned or went haywire...

And I came through into a totally screwed—up, different version of earth?

No, I doubt that.

The Stargate uses space—time to create a worm hole...

That allows us to travel across great distances...

But it doesn't take you to an alternate reality.

Alternate reality?

Scientists have theorized there are an infinite number ofdimensions...

Each containing a different possible version of reality.

It sounds like I theoretically, possibly, actually found one.

One what? What Sam said.

An alternate reality, a parallel plane.

Wouldn't that explain why everything here is the same...

But different?

The theory is there are an infinite number of alternate realities.

Some are very different and some are almost identical.

That has to be what this is!

So this isn't my world at all.

This is some sort of other dimension?

But the Stargate wouldn't cause that.

Maybe it wasn't the Stargate thatcausedit

what are you suggesting?

He found a mirror,

possibly made of naquadah, on p3r—233.

All this happened after I touched it.

P3r—233? What, have you been there?

Yes. Off—world activation!

Close the blast doors and keep the Iris sealed.

Coded transmission from air force one. Notify general O'Neill.

The rest of the Genesis travelers must be briefed and ready.

Right.

"Current address: Unknown. Phone number: Unknown.

Last place of residence: Egypt as of 1997."

Uh—oh. What?

I think I'm dead. What?

The me in this reality.

What is voyager'sstatus, doctor?

The president's plane is ten minutes from Peterson air force base.

Another coded transmission in progress.

Decode it and patch it through the speaker.

Enemy craft—pursuit—...

Cannot evade.

Surface radar is tracking.

That's one of their big ones.

Look at how fast it's moving.

Under fire! Help us!

It's heading straight for us. Confirm, airman.

Trajectory confirmed. Eta, one minute.

Damn it! Evacuation gave us away.

The enemy ships have the firepower to reach us

even this far underground.

We're stuck here as long as the gate's under attack.

Enemy ship is slowing down. Visual tracking in ten seconds.

If they fire on us, chances are we won't even feel it.

The blasts on the east coast were the equivalent...

Of 200—megaton nuclear warheads.

It's not gonna fire. What?

It's landing.

Surveillance cameras outside the tunnel show Jaffa assembling...

What appears to be a weapon.

Looks like they're coming in the front door, sir.

Position automatic weapons here and here. Men in all these halls.

Cut off every access to this level.

Blow the secondary elevator shaft now.

If the men at the surface have to fall back—...

There's only gonna be one way down.

I want all nonessential personnel through the gate to the beta site asap

Dr. Langford, that includes you and our guest.

Sir, the goa'ulds have been keeping a wormhole established from off—world.

Probably because you sent that bomb through to chulak.

The point is, unless we get another window of opportunity...

To open the gate from here, we're all stuck.

Recommendations?

Under normal circumstances, when we have full power...

We can only keep a wormhole established for about a half hour.

The goa'ulds too may be limited in how long they can keep theirs active.

So there's a time limit? Right.

Start it up, give it a count of five, and then blow it.

Let's go. Take it up. Yes, sir.

The first part sounds like a derivation ofancient Egyptian.

We couldn't recognize it.

You didn't learn how to speak it aloud on abydos.

Where did this come from?

It's a deep—space transmission our receivers picked up

three months ago.

So why are you showing this to me now?

Because it originated from the same quadrant of space as p3r—233.

Where your mirror is.

We went to 233 after we received the transmission...

But the civilization had been destroyed by the goa'ulds.

We didn't find any mirror, though.

"Beware the destroyers."

Some of 233's aliens must have sent out the warning...

Before their civilization was destroyed by the goa'ulds.

What does the rest say?

It just says "they come from,"

but then the sentence isn't complete.

It's just more sounds.

Pulses or beats of some kind.

We've analyzed them.

They're divided into groups:

3, 32, 16, 8,10and 12.

That's six numbers.

Yeah.

That's a Stargate address,

just without the point of origin.

"Beware the destroyers.

They come from 3, 32, 16, 8, 10 and 12."

Could the aliens on 233 have found out where

the Goa'uld attack originated?

What, like a Goa'uld home world?

Or at least a military base.

They assigned a number to each symbol

on the Stargate. It's a code.

We just need to figure out which symbol the aliens used...

To represent the number one, and start counting from there.

The only unique symbol they'd have is the point of origin for 233.

But that symbol may not even be on our Stargate.

Except I have the alien gate on tape.

What?

The gate is off!

Dial the gate for the beta site. Chevron one's already encoded.

If we can dial in before the goa'ulds reestablish a wormhole...

We'll be able to get out of here.

Chevron two encoded.

Can they dial in here once we start dialing out?

Yes. We must lock the seventh chevron to stop an incoming wormhole.

Chevron three encoded.

Eve rybody read sir! Y?

Chevron five encoded.

Come on, come on, come on!

No!

Off—world activation!

The computer has to dial in faster.

I'll see what I can do.

How long can the Goa'uld keep the wormhole active?

Based on the start and end of their last activation...

It looks like they can keep one established from off—world...

For 38 minutes.

We may not have that much time.

Fall back!

Gqgd

seal it off and move down!

This symbol has to be the point of origin.

How's it going up there, general?

We're getting the crap beat out of us. How's it going here?

I estimate it will be 25 before we can try opening the gate again.

And when we do, Dr. Langford here...

Has presented us with an interesting dilemma.

She seems to think we've been handed the address to a Goa'uld home world...

Possibly where this attack originated.

We'll send a bomb through.

Excuse me?

I'm sorry. I know you think of me as an outsider, but what good will that do?

Forget the fact it won't change what's happening here.

How do you know they don't have some kind of Iris like yours?

This could all be for nothing.

We probably only have one shot at dialing out.

If we use that one opportunity to dial a Goa'uld world...

We'll never get out of here ourselves.

My god!

What the hell's that?

My reality.

We are actually looking at ourselves in a parallel universe.

Another version of our lives that actually exists.

It's incredible!

It's supposed to be theoretical.

Not anymore.

What first began with Einstein's theories

about relativity—...

Who is this?

Jackson: That is Teal'c.

Big guy, gold emblem on his head and Goa'uld in his stomach.

We just saw him on the security camera.

He's the Jaffa that led the invasion into the base.

He was, and probably still is,

the first prime of apophis.

He would be charged with the most important mission.

This may sound selfish...

But where I come from, none of this has happened yet.

In my reality, the earth that I know still has a chance.

You want to explain that?

If this address does lead to the Goa'uld world where this attack originated...

And I can get this information back to my world...

Then maybe I can stop this before it starts there.

What makes you think the goa'ulds

will try attacking earth in your universe?

We've pissed the Goa'uld off as much as you have,

probably even more.

Wait a minute. Let me get this straight.

We should give up what might be our last chance

to strike back at the Goa'uld...

So we can save ourselves in a—— what?

Alternate reality. Not just yourselves.

Everyone on earth.

Your earth.

The Jack O'Neill that I know would do it.

Well, apparently you and I have never met.

No, I guess not.

All I know is because I came here, I have seen what can happen.

I have a chance to keep this from happening

to the earth I come from...

If you help me.

How much time, doctor?

Twenty—two minutes.

So the argument is academic.

We can't hold them that long anyway.

Maybe we can buy some time. How?

Not how.

Who.

You're kidding, right? You saw the videotape.

In my reality, Jack O'Neill convinced Teal'c...

To betray apophis to save our lives.

Teal'c gave up everything on the chance we could free his people from slavery.

It doesn't look like we could help him do anything right now.

Remember we just sent a bomb off to his planet.

There might not be anything left for him to save.

Not in this universe.

You expect me to explain all this to him, don't you?

He's very smart. I bet he'll understand.

How do you know he's even remotely...

The same Jaffa you know in your universe?

Not everything's the same here.

No, it's not. But it is close.

Look, I know what I am asking here. It's insane.

If you don't want to help me, I understand.

It's your lives and it's your world.

All I really have to do is buy a little time.

A few minutes to get the gate open, right?

That videotape of that Jaffa and you together should catch his attention.

You're going to talk to this guy about alternate realities?

Do you really think he's right about this Jaffa?

He was right about my son.

Thank you.

I thinkthis is where you all wish me good luck.

I take it they're not engaged in your reality.

No.

The enemy will most likely penetrate this level anytime now.

But every minute counts.

If and when we get the Stargate open from our end...

We will retreat through it...

But until then, we must keep them away...

From the control room and the Stargate at any cost.

Understood? Men: Yes, sir.

Your efforts and your dedication...

Have always made me proud to serve with all of you.

Bravo company, move out!

Don't shoot!

I'm unarmed.

I surrender.

And you are?

General Jack O'Neill, commander of this base.

You're Teal'c, right?

You'll be wondering how I know your name.

I've got quite a story to tell you.

I've got the dial—in time down another five seconds.

Now all we need is that wormhole to destabilize.

Airman, we're going to need all the help we can get out there.

We should set the base autodestruct sequence to go off...

Two minutes past the estimated window of opportunity...

For us to open the Stargate.

If the goa'ulds want this place in one piece...

I intend to disappoint them.

Computer voice: Destruct sequence activated.

What sort of deception is this?

I know it's a little hard to believe...

But you guys are pretty advanced.

You must know this alternate reality thing is possible, right?

I do not.

Then how did this Daniel guy know your name?

He says the guy in this video—...

You, I guess, in his world—...

Hates being a slave to the goa'ulds.

Lies!

Lookm

I know this sounds insane...

But you have a chance to change things in his world.

We just need a little time, that's all.

This guy Daniel says the Teal'c in his world is a good man.

That he betrayed the Goa'uld for a chance

to free his people...

To free his family, your wife...

Your son ryac.

We received word from my home world.

You sent a weapon of destruction there through your Stargate.

My people...

My family, are dead.

Four minutes. You two better get into the gate room.

Catherine. No arguments, doctor.

They need you at the beta site. What about you?

Soon as I start the dial—in process,

I'll join you. Go!

Ifthis mirror is a doorway between our dimensions...

I might be able to send help from my reality...

Or even have you come through to my earth.

If that device you brought is a remote control to the mirror, you may need it.

Go ahead. I'll get it.

Thank you.

You helped reunite me with Ernest in the other world?

I guess in the grand scheme of things, we're even.

Fall back, colonel! We have to fall back!

Two minutes!

I surrender. I have information that can help apophis.

There is technology he will want to know about.

This is a remote control to an interdimensional portal.

I can tell apophis how to find it.

Thank you.

Oh, yeah.

I also wish to blow us all to hell.

Time's up!

Come on!

Computer voice: Autodestruct in one minute.

Autodestruct in 30 seconds.

Autodestruct in ten seconds.

Nine, eight, seven...

Six, five four...

Three, two, one.

Any luck? Nothing.

Jackson: Help!

What the hell is this?

It appears to have been caused by a staff weapon.

This looks like a Stargate address.

All right. Let's get him back to earth.

No, Jack!

We'll all in very big trouble.

Jackson: They're coming.

They're coming.
