Original subtitles

Announcer: Previously, onstargate sg—1

You have to activate the chappa'ai.

Quickly, jolinar.

Teal'c: It is possible the portions of jolinar of malkshur

remain in captain Carter's mind.

My vision is the only lead we have to go on.

Shouldn't we at least check it out

before they move on?

We mean you no harm.

But I warn you,

if you make any aggressive moves,

we will fire upon you.

Martouf. How do you know me?

I don't.

Buti knew someone who did.

His name was jolinar of malkshur.

That's why we're here. To seek out the tok'ra.

I was under the impression

that the cancer hadn't gone this far.

So was I.

Take me to your leader.

It is said throughout the legend of the tok'ra

when the arrive on a planet, they go deep underground.

It is said they possess the technology

to actually grow tunn els.

Let me introduce grand council garshaw of belote.

Teal'c: She is the most hunted Goa'uld of all time.

Allow me to introduce selmak.

Martouf: She is, unfortunately, very ill

and will soon die.

Unless, one of you wishes

to volunteer to serve as a host.

Doctor: Ok, he's in v—tach. Let's go.

Let's shock him at, uh, 200.

Clear.

Hammond: How long does he have?

If there's any family for you to contact,

I recommend you getthem here asap

The chappa'ai just activated

and brought forth these.

Carter: Sg—3.

Colonel makepeace.

I'm afraid it's your father, captain.

He's in the hospital in serious condition.

Captain Carter's father is dying.

I mean, at least let her go.

She is the highest risk of all.

She contains the memory of jolinar of malkshur.

Announcer: And now, the conclusion.

Garshaw: You wish to see me?

Daniel.

Garshaw, could you at least tell us

why you've turned down our request for an alliance?

We have decided that your limited resources

do not offer us enough of a reward

to risk the high—security breach

that your knowledge of us will cause.

That's it?

Well, at least allow us some time

to try to find some technology,

some skill, something that you don't have.

I'm sorry, I don't believe it exists.

So we are prisoners.

You're looking like Goa'uld to me.

We are doing this for your protection

as well as ours.

Knowledge of our whereabouts

makes you and your world

a priority target for the Goa'uld system lords.

We're already a priority target.

They previously dispatched

2 motherships to destroy us.

There's another reason, isn't there?

Something else both ers you about us.

That is correct.

None of you have volunteered

to be host to one of us who is dying.

If you're so disgusted

by the very thought of blending,

how can we be associated with one another?

I mean, it's obvious that you have

distaste for our very being.

No, it is simply a lack of understanding.

We have no hatred for you at all.

Then be a host to selmak.

Well, I wish I could say I was ok with that, but—...

The very thought sickens you.

There is nothing more to be said.

There will be no alliance.

You will remain here until we say otherwise.

Colonel makepeace?

Did anyone tell you how far along my father is?

No, I was only told

to get you back as soon as possible.

He doesn't even know why I'm notthere for him.

He——he thinks I'm off somewhere

working on some damn satellite dish or something.

We're going to get you back there, Carter.

The good news is...

There's 8 of us now.

That's good news?

Yes. More manpower.

Is this another one of your strange jokes, O'Neill?

Uh, no.

It would be impossible.

There is only one way out:

Via the rings.

We would then have to elude hundreds of tok'ra.

I, for one, don't want to hurt any of them.

Look,

I'm not to thrilled about hurting anyone either,

but keep in mind

these people want to make you a host.

And as I recall, you said that whole

"jolinar Goa'uld in the head deal,"

was one of the worst things that ever happened to you.

That's before I understood it better.

I—if iwasn't fighting her and I know what it meant

for jolinar to be a tok'ra,

it might have been...

I don't know, enlightening.

I need to see garshaw.

What?

What is the one thing thatthey need the most?

Well, hosts, which we can't give them.

What is it?

You said that the symbiote

can cure most problems in a human.

Yes.

Does that include cancer?

What is cancer?

Uh, it's a disease in humans

where the cells grow out of control.

You get tumors.

Ah, yes. It's a common ailment

amongst your species.

We cure it all the time. It's no problem.

Colonel,

ithinkwe should at least try to offer it to my dad.

We might have a host for you.

You have a host for selmak?

Yes. My father.

He's got cancer,

and if selmak can save his life,

ithink he'd be willing to try it.

But you have to let us go back.

I will let 2 of you go.

And the rest will remain

to insure that you will return.

Colonel O'Neill, where's colonel makepeace, sg—3?

They were supposed to extract only captain Carter.

General, we need to talk.

Captain Carter,

I am truly sorry about your father,

buti have to question the wisdom

of what you're suggesting here.

From what I've seen,

this won't exactly be saving his life.

It'll be more like giving his body to a Goa'uld.

No, sir, more like letting one share it.

Jacob knows a lot about earth,

about the us. Military.

This would be like

handing over that information to the Goa'uld.

To th e tok'ra.

You sure there's a difference?

Oh, yes, sir, there's a difference, believe me.

I won't even pretendto understand

whatthe difference is, butthere is one.

One minute you're talking to a Goa'uld,

the next minute you're talking to a regular...

Guy... person.

Host.

A host.

How do you know it isn't just a trick?

We've seen the goa'ulds speak as humans before.

Well, general, if these were your everyday,

run of the mill, greasy—assed Goa'uld,

they would have made us their host already.

They were holding you prisoner, colonel.

Still are holding sg—3 and the rest of your team.

Only temporarily, sir.

And they thought it was to protect us as much as them.

Yeah, I didn't buy that one myself, sir.

General Hammond, please.

I know my father would want to do this.

He would have the opportunity

to serve as the liaison between ourselves

and possibly the most important ally

we will ever have.

I would like to take this opportunity

to express my admiration for your cause.

It is both honorable and brave.

Thank you, Jaffa.

I must say, I feel the same about you.

To break from apophis andthen turn to fight him

shows great conviction of character.

Master garshaw,

we just received word from our scout

in the shoran'ka quadrant.

The Goa'uld system lords have been told where we are.

They have dispatched

when will they arrive?

Within the day, perhaps hours.

Start the evacuation.

Hammond: Clear the room, people.

I told you not to recall her.

Happy to see you, too, dad.

You wanted me to tell you

what captain Carter does.

I thought maybe she could tell you herself.

Yeah?

What happened to the classification.

It's still classified.

But you just got clearance.

Why?

Well, believe it or not, we need your help, dad.

On what?

The Pentagon wants me to deliver

a message to god when I get up there?

Not exactly.

Well, I don't plan to see the other guy.

Dad, have you ever heard of the Stargate program?

No. Is that one of your satellites?

I don't work with satellites, dad.

That was just a cover.

No kidding. I never would have guessed.

So tell me, what do you do that so great

you don't want me to get you into the astronaut program?

Well, this is going to be a lot for you to take in at once.

Stop beating around the bush.

What do you do?

I travel to other plan ets.

Much farther away than any astronaut goes.

So you're not going to tell me the truth here.

She is telling you the truth, Jacob.

She goes to other plan ets?

What, like in simulations?

No, in reality.

We discovered a piece of alien technology.

It can send us to thousands of planets

all over the galaxy.

You're not kidding, are you?

No.

Holy Hannah!

So what do you want me to do?

Well, we'd like you to travel

to one of these planets with us.

Why? So I can die there?

No.

Actually, I'm hoping what we want you to do

will cure your cancer.

They have a cure there?

What's th e catch?

It's a doozy, Jacob.

I won't lie to you on that.

Technician: Chevron 6 locked.

So this is the alien thing you found.

Yep

and it sends you to other planets?

Technician: Chevron 7 locked.

O'Neill: How about them apples, huh?

Incredible.

Let's go, dad.

Does it...

What's it feel like?

You've handled worse, dad.

It's a piece of cake, sir.

You do that a lot?

Yeah, once or twice a week.

It beats the hell out of a shuttle

on the back of a rocket.

Goes a lot further, too.

You know, I was kind of expecting

a little greeting party or something.

Are you sure this is another planet?

It looks like earth.

Carter: Yeah, we figured

the Stargate system was built specifically

to transport humans,

or something close to humans in physiology.

So it seems to go mostly to places

where the environment supports human life.

O'Neill: Makepeace.

All right, airman, carry on.

What the heck's going on?

We're free.

Then why are you still here?

Well, we want to be allies, right?

So we're lending a hand with the evacuation.

What evacuation?

Come on. I'll explain as we go

Dad, this is Teal'c.

Teal'c, this is my father.

It is an honor.

Daniel: This is where they've been stacking our stuff.

Chel nockin.

Direct translation: "Ve ry cool".

All right, you want to tell me what's going on now?

They're evacuating, so we're free to go.

Why?

The system lords are ready to attack.

The Goa'uld motherships are on the way.

O'Neill: All right, where do we find garshaw?

Teal'c: We last saw her in the council chamber.

All right, boys, let's go.

Call if you need me.

Thanks.

You have returned.

Yes.

This is my father Jacob Carter.

Honored.

I am martouf.

You have a very special daughter.

Why does he talk like that?

He's atok'ra, dad. I told you aboutthem.

So these are the aliens

you were telling me about?

Well, I——I don't know if I'd call them aliens. Sort of...

Half—alien, I guess.

I mean, the outside is human,

and the inside is shared

between a human and a symbiote.

Martouf is actually 2 different souls, I guess,

sharing the same body.

Andthat's what you want me to become?

You gotto be kidding me.

So fill me in.

How'd th e system lords find them?

That is unknown.

You talking about a spy here or what?

Well, if that's the case, moving to another plan et's

not going to do them much good.

Teal'c,

you know those little pellet—ball things?

The long—range visual communications device.

Right. How small do they make those?

I have seen them small enough

to fit in the palm of your hand.

I'm not sure I can do this, Sam.

No one wishes to pressure you

in any way, sir. The decision is yours.

But before deciding, might I suggest that you...

You take a moment to get to know

the symbiote that wishes to blend with you.

This is her.

Actually, you only see the host.

The symbiote's inside her.

Inside her.

Talk to her, dad. Getto know her.

If you agree to the blen ding,

we could be together for a very long time.

You don't look so good.

You are no vision of beauty yourself, sir.

It's all right. It's all right.

I'm the one to whom you should be talking.

You are the one I'm talking to.

Why——why did your voice change like that.

That's the host talking now.

I am saroosh.

I'm in the position to help you most.

How's that?

I will die. Selmak will live on.

You will take my place as host.

I don't understand.

Selmak is awonderfultok'ra.

She is selfless and caring.

She's good company.

She has awonderful sense of humor.

Well, that's good, dad.

You can sit around for hours cracking yourself up

that's funny.

She's not far wrong.

I've had almost 200 years of laughter,

thanks to selmak.

I'm biased, of course,

buti believe selmak

is among the best educated of the tok'ra.

You will probably be overwhelmed

with the knowledge and wisdom

you will gain upon blending.

So I get all of this thing.

This, uh...

What did you call it in her head?

Symbiote.

Yeah. I get all its memories and stuff?

Yeah, dad. Something like that.

Then iwon't deceive you, sir.

We have some pretty awful things

buried in our memory.

Such as?

Memories of...

Countless Goa'uld atrocities.

The loss of the host before me.

And you will feel

the mourning for my loss.

Will you excuse me, ma'am?

I'm sorry.

I didn't want my future, uh—...

I guess you could call her soulmate—...

To see me like this.

Dad, you don't have to do this.

Yes, I do.

My only other choice is death,

and that's not acceptable.

Look, don't worry.

It's not just hearing all that stuff

that made me lose my stomach. It's the chemo.

And the trip through that damn Stargate thing.

It's ok.

This is a lot of weird information

for anyone to take in at once.

Trust me. I know.

O'Neill: Garshaw.

What can I do for you?

I think you might have a spy in your ranks.

Nonsense.

The tok'ra are loyal for life.

How, then, were you located by the system lords?

How did you find us?

Well, we did have a spy in our ranks.

Jolinar of malkshur, through captain Carter.

I suppose you know the name of this spy?

Got a pretty good idea.

Who?

Well, I don't want to point fingers,

but I'd keep my eye on cordesh.

Cordesh? Why do you say that?

You folks make a habit of walking around

with those little tele—ball deal —— what are they?

He speaks of a long—range

visual communications device.

We don't have those.

We——we have no use for them.

The system is not secure.

Well, your buddy cordesh has one.

Tok'ra kree!

Men: Kree!

Tajak cordesh kree.

Men: Tullah kree!

You guys stay here.

We'll stay here.

Cordesh.

You must come with me and face questioning.

I am not what I appear to be.

Cordesh is no longer.

I couldn't stop him.

I'm as guilty as he was.

You must leave the tunnel

and explain yourself, cordesh.

I don't deserve to remain

among the tok'ra.

Aah!

Ouch.

What do I have to do?

First, selmak would like to interview you.

Huh?

If I am to spend

the next 100 or more years

with you as my host,

do you notthink I have the rightto decide

if I even like you?

What's notto like?

Just ask my daughter. I'm ateddy bear.

Oh, yeah. A real Teddy bear.

How do you feel about the Goa'uld?

Well, you're the first one I've met.

I am not a Goa'uld.

Ah. Trick question?

Remember, dad, itried to explain

the difference.

Right, right. I apologize.

I guess I've never met a Goa'uld before.

Although, from what Sam and her people tell me,

I don'tthink I'd like them much.

Tell me, sir,

are you a good man?

You're kidding, right?

No.

We'll be spending the rest of our lives together.

Look...

Forgive me for being blunt...

But you're dying, right?

My host is. Yes.

And you'll die with her unless you and I, um—...

What did you call it? Blend... right?

Yes.

And I'll die, too, unless we do this.

So, my point is, good man, bad man,

what difference does it make?

We don't have a choice.

And I don't mind telling you,

the whole idea

scares the hell outta me.

So can we just get it over with?

I have decided I like you.

Super.

But I must be sure that you understand

there will be no turning back.

I can not blend with you,

cure your disease, and leave.

To do so would probably kill us both.

I understand.

Let me ask you something, though.

After we do this,

will I still be able to talk to my daughter?

The way saroosh talked to you. Yes.

But you and your daughter must understand,

the blending may not work at all.

I am very weak,

and the damage to your body

may be too extensive.

In other words, we might die anyway.

Yes.

Then can you give me 5 with my kid?

Of course.

You must hurry.

We don't have a lot of time.

Listen, Sam,

I was never good atthis stuff.

Dad, you don't have to say anything.

You gotta know one thing—...

How proud I am of you.

I'm not good at saying those things enough.

I think you just said it pretty well.

Even when I thought you were this whiz satellite geek...

I was proud.

That's all I wanted to say.

Thanks, dad.

Hey, I know I'm a pain in the ass.

Maybe this tok'ra lady will, uh,

sand off some of the rough edges.

It might be a good thing, right?

Could be.

The longer we wait, the less the chances.

Ok, what do I do?

Cordesh must be guilty of something,

or he'd not have allowed himself to be buried.

What, he had a choice?

I mustthankyou.

You may have saved the tok'ra a great many losses.

You're welcome.

But you still have nothing to offer us.

What?!

Oh, actually, I th I n k we do.

Do we?

Well, the one thing you need most,

we can provide. Hosts.

Daniel.

Well, think about it.

I mean, if it works for Sam's father,

there must be other people in similar situations.

It's worth exploring.

It is.

Martouf: We do not enter our hosts

through the back of the neck.

This just leaves a scar that many of us find very unsettling.

So, why don't the Goa'uld do it this way, too?

They don't wish to remember the horror on their host's face

whenever they see their own reflection in a mirror.

You must step away, captain Carter.

Good—bye, kid. Yeah.

See you soon, dad.

Now what?

Kiss me.

You're kidding, right?

No, I'm not.

Good—bye, dear friend.

He's alive.

Is he ok?

He's very sick.

And selmak is weak.

She may not have the strength to heal him.

Is there anything we can do to help?

Nothing.

Only time will tell.

Guard: Our scopes have spotted the Goa'uld ships

dropping from hyperspace.

They will start attacking from the air

and th rough the gate within hours.

Garshaw orders that we must destroy the complex.

We need time.

Can we move him?

If we do so, it will kill them.

Excuse me.

What are you doing?

I'll apologize if I'm wrong.

Cordesh had one of these.

So there are 2 spies.

Or not.

Cordesh said he wasn't who he appeared to be.

Goa'uld can jump hosts to hide,

much as jolinar of malkshur.

Cordesh?

The plague that is the tok'ra

will soon be wiped out.

I am sickened to think I once called you

my friend, cordesh.

But I want you to know

the system lords will fall,

but you won't be alive to see it.

Attempt to remove cordesh from the host

without harming her,

and put this traitor

in one of the vanishing tunnels.

I believe I shall be proud

to call you friend.

Martou f, all tunnels but this one

and the escape tunnel have vanished.

All the other tok'ra have gone to the new home world.

We must go now.

What about my father?

When and if he awakens,

selmak knows where we'll be.

He can follow.

Butthe Goa'uld are coming. They'll capture him.

If he's captured, he will die

before he will reveal our whereabouts.

Well, then take him with you.

Or we'll take him with us.

I'm afraid that to transport him now,

he will die.

He needs to remain stationary

until selmak has completed her repairs.

We can't just leave him here.

I will remain with him.

If I can get him out, iwill. If not,

iwill allow the vanishing tunnels

to consume us before the Goa'uld get here.

I cannot allow you to die in this way.

We must leave now.

I'll stay.

You are even more vulnerable

since you contain the memories of jolinar.

I cannot allow you to stay.

We must go now.

She's right, captain. We have to go.

With respect, no, sir.

I am not leaving him here.

Martouf: Captain Carter and I will both remain.

I will assure that we will not be taken

by the Goa'uld.

Sam: Please, colonel.

I need to be here.

Right.

Daniel, Teal'c, let's go.

We may not have much time

before the Goa'uld come through the gate, blocking our way.

Daniel: We can take you to our planet

then send you to your new home from there.

Daniel, start dialing home.

Well, shouldn't we wait for Carter—...

Teal'c: O'Neill.

Dial!

Oh, god, I hope I've done the rightthing bringing him here.

From what I understand,

the alternative was no better.

True.

Can your man defendthem against an attack?

Only minimally.

Garshaw,

what will martouf do

if the Goa'uld get too close?

I regretthat at the risk of capture,

martouf will destroy the underground compound

with himself and all your people with it.

Dad?

Martouf.

I am here.

Shall we not make our escape?

Yes, we should.

Uh, is my dad in there somewhere?

I'm here, Sammy.

Oh, man...

Talk about your hangover.

How are you, dad?

I'm awful.

Headache the size of Kuwait.

There's too much stuff in here.

Whoa! What?

Heh heh heh.

No more arthritis.

Holy Hannah, no more arthritis!

We should make our leave as soon as possible. This way.

Still no sg—I signal, sir.

The Goa'uld are attempting to come th rough the gate.

Not if I dial out first.

We'll go to earth.

You two can go wherever you need to from there.

Did we open the gate, or did they?

We have no choice.

Wait.

There's the signal.

Open the Iris.

I must give you thanks.

You have saved my life andthat of my new host.

We thank you.

This is wonderful news.

Yes. Can we talk to your host?

So, when the little fella inside me is talking,

do I sound like she does?

That is correct.

It's strange.

I can feel myself talking,

but it's not me saying the words.

You know?

Don't know. Take your word for it.

How do you feel?

Well, considering I got

one of those things inside me,

pretty damn good.

Listen, George,

because of this blending thing,

I already know everything there is to know

about the tok'ra.

You made the right call.

I hope so.

I would be proud to serve as liaison

between the earth andthese people.

Gen. Hammond: Good.

Well, on that note,

perhaps you can ask them to come with me

to do a little debriefing.

I'm afraid we cannot. We must go.

You are safe here.

Because of the spy,

the Goa'uld may already be at the site

the tok'ra have moved to.

You can't stay a little longer?

We must go quickly and stop the tunnels there

before they are grown.

We must move the tok'ra to yet another new home.

Do you not have a dialing device here?

Yeah, we slapped a little one together.

Hmm. you made it yourself.

Impressive.

Will you show itto me?

I would like to put in the coordinates myself.

This way.

I give you my word

iwill watch over your father

as if he were my own.

Thank you.

I look forward to seeing you again.

So do I.

It's ironic, ain't it?

What?

I was trying to find you a better assignment,

and you didn't need it.

Now you've found me the best assignment

an old soldier can dream up

thanks, kid.

You're welcome.

Do you have to go so soon?

Yeah, I have to go.

Apparently, I'm the oldest

and wisest among us.

Oh, jeez.

There will come atime when the tok'ra

and the people of the tauri

will destroy the Goa'uld system lords.

This will be a good day.

Daniel: Um...

This box has a signature in itwe can recognize.

Just send it through the gate,

and we'll know you want to contact us.

Thank you.

Come, selmak.

I love you.

I love you, too, dad.

Oh, selmak says, uh—...

Let me see if I can translate this.

"Don't call us. We'll call you."
