{1}{60}Previously, on Stargate Atlantis...
{61}{86}What do we know about the Wraith?
{87}{190}One of the few things we do know is that|they are the enemy that defeated the ancients.
{210}{290}Sometimes, a few hundred years|will pass before they awaken again.
{291}{350}We have visited many, many worlds.
{360}{417}I know of none untouched by the Wraith.
{418}{527}You are doomed, as are any|humans that stand in our way.
{528}{594}The ancients were researching ascension.
{595}{625}What exactly is ascension?
{626}{665}An advanced stage of being where they were able
{666}{701}to rid themselves of their physical bodies
{702}{736}and rise to a higher plane of existence,
{737}{799}one in which they live as pure energy.
{1010}{1056}- I count two. How about you?|- Yes, sir.
{1060}{1120}- I recommend shooting back any time now.|- I'm trying.
{1132}{1200}- That hit must've caused some damage. McKay?|- I'm on it.
{1209}{1242}Where did they come from?
{1266}{1332}She's right. The darts are short-range fighters.
{1333}{1390}There's probably a hive ship around here somewhere.
{1394}{1439}- Then we need to get out of here.|- Yes, we do.
{1444}{1508}The Stargate's the other way,|on the other side of the planet.
{1509}{1552}Yeah, we're taking the scenic route. McKay!
{1556}{1581}I've almost there!
{1608}{1638}There's one on our tail!
{1639}{1713}Thank you, I know all about that one.|Keep your eye on the other one.
{1716}{1740}Okay, you should have weapons now.
{1741}{1768}- Negative.|- Are you sure?
{1770}{1818}- Positive!|- I'm pretty sure I fixed it.
{1832}{1879}Well, obviously you didn't!
{1920}{1972}Perhaps you can lose them in|the atmosphere of the planet.
{1974}{2009}Two more darts on our two o'clock.
{2010}{2040}I see them. McKay!
{2041}{2083}It's not like I'm holding back on you.
{2466}{2490}Hang on!
{2806}{2842}The Wraith darts have been destroyed.
{2843}{2872}Well, that's a good thing.
{2920}{3031}I thought for sure we were dead.|Didn't you think we were dead?
{3032}{3056}What the hell was that?
{3057}{3100}Some sort of, uh, energy weapon?
{3116}{3167}What do you say we find out?
{3352}{3477}Season 1: Episode 14 Sanctuary
{4374}{4509}Team24 and SG-66 for seriestele.net|and Forom.com Transcript: Raceman
{4856}{4946}So just to confirm, we're all still...
{4974}{5000}definitely not dead.
{5012}{5060}I feel very much alive.
{5061}{5088}Good. Same here.
{5089}{5125}I wish I knew what that was.
{5126}{5148}Looked like lightning.
{5149}{5173}Space lightning?
{5174}{5257}I already said, it's some sort of an energy weapon,|one that apparently destroys Wraith darts.
{5258}{5308}Nice, but why them and not us?
{5309}{5402}Well, assuming that we're still alive,|and there doesn't appear to be any damage
{5403}{5461}as a result of the pulse,|I think we can safely conclude that, uh...
{5581}{5595}I got nothing.
{5604}{5654}I mean, I got nothing to conclude.
{5655}{5700}I'm just talking for the sake of talking.
{5701}{5719}Are you sure you're okay?
{5720}{5774}You know how much I hate certain death?
{5775}{5803}You're alive.
{5804}{5877}Could something like that be naturally occurring?
{5878}{5930}My money's on non-naturally occurring.
{5931}{5964}Like a weapon the ancients left behind?
{5978}{6041}And any weapon that impressive|would have to be powered by...
{6042}{6075}- ... a zero-point module.|- That's right.
{6076}{6111}All right, we need to get down there.
{6112}{6177}I've got to check for damage anyway|before we head back to Atlantis.
{6517}{6608}If there is a weapon somewhere down here,|sir, these folks didn't build it.
{6618}{6641}Not these kids.
{6677}{6708}You picking up anything?
{6709}{6762}I'm picking up everything,|just nothing worth mentioning.
{6772}{6834}These folks look familiar to you, Teyla?
{6835}{6913}The Stargate is in orbit, Major.|My people could never have ventured here.
{6928}{7008}Right.|What say we venture?
{7589}{7613}Hi.
{7700}{7742}It's okay. We're friendly.
{7782}{7796}Hi.
{7860}{7924}It is likely they have never seen|anyone from outside their village.
{8267}{8287}Welcome.
{8320}{8420}I am Zarah, one of the abbots of Proculis.
{8433}{8482}I'm John. John Sheppard.
{8483}{8566}This is Teyla, lieutenant Ford, and dr. McKay.
{8622}{8662}Please, come.
{9191}{9381}This is the first time at least in my own lifetime|that people from another land have come to us.
{9406}{9432}Well, we came by ship.
{9501}{9640}A flying thing that allows us|to move from one world to another.
{9641}{9674}Another world?
{9680}{9745}From among the stars you see in the night sky.
{9776}{9824}We are peaceful explorers.
{9856}{9947}Then glory to Athar for bringing you here safely.
{9964}{9995}Athar?
{10008}{10095}The provider... and protector of all.
{10100}{10134}Surely you know.
{10140}{10220}Athar is known by many names among the stars.
{10221}{10286}Is, um... Athar around?
{10291}{10360}We'd love to talk to him.|We're, uh, friends.
{10365}{10466}Athar is friend to all, and with us always.
{10482}{10535}Even now.
{10536}{10568}Of course.
{10608}{10631}Hi, Athar.
{10632}{10732}What dr. McKay means is that|we wish to offer our thanks.
{10733}{10801}We were attacked by the Wraith|and would have been killed,
{10802}{10853}were it not for Athar's intervention.
{10874}{10895}"Wraith"?
{10912}{11012}Pale skin, sunken eyes, |suck the life out of you with their hands?
{11018}{11086}We have never encountered such beings.
{11094}{11119}Never?
{11158}{11229}And there is no mention of them in your history?
{11230}{11250}None.
{11251}{11365}I can assure you that for many thousands of years,|we have lived here in peace.
{11439}{11488}Could you excuse us for a moment?
{11520}{11645}Of course. Please, I must tell the other abbots|of your arrival before we go to meet with Chaya.
{11646}{11688}And Chaya is...
{11689}{11745}The high priestess of Athar.
{11772}{11820}This is a great day for our people.
{11909}{11934}Ours too.
{12024}{12070}I'm not kidding. This could really work.
{12071}{12096}I agree, Major.
{12097}{12208}Every inhabited world I have encountered|in this galaxy has been ravaged by the Wraith.
{12209}{12264}Well, this planet is protected|by an Ancient weapon.
{12265}{12294}This just confirms it.
{12295}{12303}Does it?
{12304}{12331}Well, there's no other explanation.
{12332}{12393}I mean, the power requirements of|something like that must be astronomical.
{12394}{12431}Only a Z.P.M. could generate that.
{12432}{12511}And yet... they do not appear|to be technologically advanced.
{12512}{12623}Unless that guy was lying,|but he doesn't seem like the lying type.
{12624}{12687}So, automated defenses.
{12688}{12806}Imagine a world where displaced refugees from|dozens of planets could come and live in peace,
{12807}{12863}without fear of being culled by the Wraith.
{12865}{12920}Maybe we can negotiate some kind of treaty.
{12921}{12971}We just need access to that|weapon better still, the Z.P.M.,
{12978}{13023}not that we'd steal it or anything.
{13024}{13081}Let's just try to stay on our best behavior.
{13082}{13122}I'm always on my best behavior.
{13216}{13279}How much farther?
{13280}{13306}Not very.
{13307}{13331}Oh, good.
{13378}{13415}See? We could have taken the jumper.
{13416}{13444}The exercise is good for you.
{13461}{13506}Chaya does live pretty far from your people.
{13524}{13601}It is not uncommon, Major,|for clerics to live apart from the community.
{14322}{14349}Glory to Athar.
{14350}{14391}Welcome, and rest.
{14392}{14432}Thank you, sister.
{14482}{14515}You are new to Proculis.
{14516}{14563}Yes. We're, uh...
{14564}{14599}we're brand new, in fact.
{14600}{14670}Major John Sheppard.
{14671}{14739}I am called Chaya Sar.
{14748}{14781}And you are...
{14782}{14812}Teyla...
{14824}{14875}Lieutenant Ford, and Dr. McKay.
{14876}{14912}How did she know that?
{14913}{14934}Oh, please.
{14936}{14968}One of the abbots ran ahead.
{14969}{15016}It's a pleasure to meet you, Chaya.
{15050}{15096}You must be tired after your long journey.
{15097}{15142}Shall I prepare some tea for us?
{15184}{15248}I was hoping you were going to say just that.
{15338}{15382}And where do they come from, these Wraith?
{15383}{15476}They seem to be everywhere in this galaxy,|and they appear to have been on top
{15477}{15508}of the food chain for a long time.
{15509}{15537}It's terrifying.
{15564}{15598}Truly terrifying.
{15616}{15671}My heart goes out to your people, Teyla.
{15672}{15726}It is not only my people who suffer, Chaya.
{15727}{15790}The Wraith have awakened from a long sleep,
{15791}{15885}and this entire world is safe from|the culling that has already begun.
{15894}{16018}Even Atlantis, with all its wonder,|may not survive the onslaught.
{16019}{16141}It is our hope that Athar|could grant sanctuary here on Proculis.
{16142}{16169}Sanctuary?
{16235}{16260}For so many?
{16261}{16361}Well, we're not talking about everybody|in the galaxy showing up on your doorstep.
{16362}{16404}This planet is pretty big, ma'am.
{16405}{16450}And it is largely uninhabited.
{16451}{16528}More importantly,|it is protected by that weapon of yours.
{16529}{16557}Weapon?
{16558}{16608}I am aware of no such thing on Proculis.
{16667}{16705}Are you sure about that?
{16706}{16732}Yes.
{16733}{16763}Oh, please.
{16771}{16813}Rodney, best behavior.
{16814}{16859}This is as good as it gets, Major.
{16860}{16956}Chaya, the only reason we're alive|is because of a powerful energy weapon
{16957}{17006}that emanated from somewhere|on the surface of this planet.
{17007}{17065}It destroyed the ships that were shooting at us.
{17066}{17114}That weapon is what's keeping the Wraith away.
{17115}{17136}No, Dr. McKay.
{17137}{17181}It was Athar who protected you.
{17182}{17208}Athar?
{17209}{17232}Yes.
{17233}{17277}Athar saw you were in need.
{17309}{17374}Chaya, there are a lot of people just like...
{17437}{17519}you and me, who are in need because of the Wraith.
{17520}{17677}What you have here, what Athar|has provided you, is a very rare thing...
{17721}{17769}but we have a lot to offer too.
{17770}{17856}That's what friends do. They share.
{17888}{17934}I think we could help each other.
{17971}{18000}I understand.
{18043}{18087}I shall consult with her now.
{18172}{18256}Please stay here.|I don't know how long this will take.
{18313}{18331}Thank you.
{18351}{18415}"What Athar provides for you?"
{18416}{18441}You're buying into this?
{18442}{18474}Rodney...
{18475}{18534}what religious people don't|take their religion seriously?
{18535}{18576}We didn't imagine that weapon, Major.
{18577}{18643}We saw it with our own eyes,|and we saw what it was capable of.
{18644}{18669}Yes, we did.
{18670}{18754}Perhaps Chaya is simply|unaware of the weapon's existence.
{18755}{18838}Or she knows, and she wants|to keep it a secret from us.
{18844}{18889}She doesn't strike me|as the lying type either.
{18953}{19036}All right, let's just see|what Athar has to say.
{19076}{19152}So, "pay no attention to|the man behind the curtain," hmm?
{19153}{19177}Exactly.
{19794}{19809}Major.
{19854}{19926}We have conveyed your|request to our divine mother,
{19927}{19993}and although she does not doubt|the righteousness of your mission,
{19994}{20098}I'm afraid she cannot countenance|any other people but hers settling here.
{20099}{20161}And you really had to chant|all that time to come up with that?
{20162}{20190}McKay.
{20191}{20247}Is there any way we can|ask Athar to reconsider?
{20248}{20379}Athar understands and sympathizes|these Wraith are a scourge among our stars
{20380}{20473}but she has to place the|lives of her people first.
{20502}{20556}Well, I think we both knew|what you were going to say
{20557}{20590}long before you even went in there.
{20592}{20633}We prayed for Athar's guidance.
{20634}{20672}And what did Athar say?
{20698}{20790}You're hiding behind your religion to|justify your complete and utter selfishness.
{20791}{20812}Rodney...
{20813}{20883}if Athar existed, she|would be ashamed of herself.
{20884}{20964}We ask only to be left alone and in peace.
{20965}{21056}So untold thousands, possibly millions|of people will die out there
{21057}{21102}when they could have been saved,|all in the name of Athar.
{21103}{21144}How very, very peaceful of you.
{21145}{21185}You should be grateful to Athar.
{21186}{21221}This is a waste of time.
{21222}{21270}Athar regrets that she cannot help you.
{21271}{21319}And I'm sure those were her exact words.
{21320}{21340}That's enough.
{21398}{21429}Head back to the jumper.
{21430}{21464}I'll be there in a minute.
{21465}{21486}Why?
{21487}{21511}Because you're not helping.
{21512}{21536}Yes, sir.
{21771}{21811}I apologize.
{21815}{21889}He acts only in accordance|to his beliefs, as do we.
{21890}{21969}But Rodney is right about one thing.
{21970}{22051}This really is about lives, human lives.
{22052}{22140}Sooner or later, the Wraith are going to|show up at Atlantis, and when they do...
{22141}{22161}you're a warrior.
{22162}{22228}Well, I don't know about "warrior."
{22229}{22258}It is your vocation, Major.
{22274}{22301}You will fight.
{22320}{22427}I'll try, but knowing what|we're up against, and the odds...
{22468}{22674}Look I'd appreciate it if you would ask|Athar to consider that we are her people.
{22675}{22785}Even though we come from|very far away, we're the same.
{22786}{22857}We're human, which means we're not strangers.
{22858}{22880}We're family.
{23105}{23134}Evening breeze.
{23166}{23229}I was kind of hoping|it was a sign from Athar.
{23230}{23292}Your words are most|compelling, Major Sheppard.
{23293}{23318}Thank you.
{23332}{23371}I was going for compelling.
{23380}{23431}Do you truly believe we are family?
{23432}{23459}We are.
{23460}{23491}I can prove it to you.
{23492}{23512}How?
{23513}{23546}Come back to Atlantis.
{23547}{23584}See who we really are.
{23585}{23634}Once Athar learns more about us...
{23635}{23660}this is acceptable.
{23672}{23696}It is?
{23704}{23802}Chaya, please, you cannot leave.
{23803}{23912}Athar is with us always,|no matter where we are, Zarah.
{24053}{24081}I understand.
{24082}{24240}I am ready.
{24338}{24376}Welcome to Atlantis.
{24382}{24407}Thank you.
{24413}{24487}I hope you don't mind, but our|doctors do require a medical exam
{24488}{24529}of all off-planet team members
{24530}{24606}and our visitors, but after that,|perhaps you'd like a full tour.
{24607}{24630}I would love that.
{24631}{24686}Major Sheppard has|already promised to do so.
{24687}{24721}Of course he has.
{24722}{24742}Of course I have.
{24743}{24806}Please, if you'll|follow me to the infirmary...
{24807}{24869}maybe I should tag along,|in case you have any questions..
{24870}{24898}I think I've got a handle, Rodney.
{24899}{24931}There are a lot of systems you know absolutely...
{24932}{24950}Got it covered.
{25022}{25035}Fine.
{25268}{25288}Hold still.
{25289}{25331}Just a minute more.
{25395}{25498}Well, my dear, it seems you're just as|lovely on the inside as you are on the out.
{25499}{25571}If health is synonymous with beauty.
{25572}{25604}You can get up now.
{25605}{25648}How does this device
{25649}{25685}do what you say it does?
{25692}{25827}It creates images of the tissues inside|your body, and they are picture-perfect.
{25828}{25889}Did you bring these|machines back from your world?
{25890}{25911}Some.
{25912}{25999}Others are atlantean technology that|we've figured out how to use, and a few...
{26000}{26094}well, I haven't the vaguest idea what they do.
{26095}{26142}Hopefully one day I'll have a chance to meet one.
{26143}{26163}I'll ask them myself.
{26164}{26195}Do you know what happened to them?
{26196}{26278}Well, some returned to Earth|after the war with the Wraith.
{26279}{26355}That much we know, but we also|know that some of them ascended.
{26365}{26391}Ascended?
{26392}{26463}To a higher plane,|where they exist only as energy.
{26494}{26545}Are all the people of|your world as healthy as you?
{26570}{26588}Yes.
{26620}{26647}No disease, ailments?
{26680}{26723}No one ever breaks a leg?
{26724}{26788}Such things are rare,|but my people heal quite rapidly.
{26793}{26829}Really?
{26904}{26927}Are we done?
{26946}{26961}Are we?
{26964}{27007}Healthiest patient I've ever had.
{27008}{27032}Off you go, love.
{27170}{27189}Where are we at?
{27190}{27238}Well, either she knows where|the weapon is and she's playing us,
{27240}{27313}or else she has no idea,|in which case, we are wasting our time.
{27314}{27340}So what do you suggest?
{27341}{27422}Take another team back in the jumper,|scan the planet for energy signatures.
{27423}{27465}Chaya's people won't have a|clue what we're doing from orbit,
{27466}{27523}unless they're a technically advanced|race that are pretending not to be,
{27524}{27576}which has happened before.
{27592}{27632}Did you find anything abnormal?
{27633}{27696}I mean, something that would suggest they|are more advanced than they claim to be?
{27697}{27791}No, They're either pathetically pretechnological|or brilliantly post-technological.
{27792}{27852}And there's no way this|could be a natural phenomenon?
{27853}{27930}A perfectly timed, directional energy burst|that only affected the Wraith ships?
{27936}{27977}- That's a no?|- That's a no.
{27978}{28035}Dr. Weir,  I have those results.
{28036}{28073}Thank you, Carson. We're on our way.
{28160}{28195}How many of you are there?
{28196}{28256}Counting all the athosians on the mainland,
{28262}{28306}you might get a couple of hundred,
{28307}{28369}which leaves a very large, empty city.
{28370}{28435}Right now, we're living in one section, because we|don't have the power to spread out more than that.
{28535}{28558}What do you think so far?
{28598}{28637}I think it's wondrous...
{28659}{28707}but ultimately, the decision is up to Athar.
{28774}{28810}You're not a believer, are you?
{28834}{28861}Look, Chaya...
{28881}{28920}I respect that you believe.
{28948}{29006}Look, I can't talk to Athar,
{29007}{29112}I can only talk to you, so let me ask you this| what if the shoe was on the other foot?
{29120}{29175}What if your people were in trouble|and we could help you?
{29198}{29242}Would you just take no for an answer?
{29284}{29378}It must have been very hard to live your|entire life under the shadow of the Wraith.
{29436}{29470}Don't misunderstand me.
{29471}{29522}Teyla and her people have|known the Wraith forever,
{29523}{29579}but when I say we're new,|I mean we just got here.
{29580}{29634}We're from another galaxy.|A planet called Earth.
{29644}{29664}Earth?
{29680}{29707}It's very far away.
{29726}{29775}You know those clusters of|stars you see in the night sky?
{29776}{29829}Some of them are called galaxies,
{29830}{29883}and they're even further|away from you than the stars.
{29884}{29938}Earth is in one of those galaxies.
{29939}{29983}You came through the Stargate.
{29984}{30011}That's right.
{30020}{30061}And can you not simply return?
{30062}{30099}Well, not simply.
{30121}{30189}We knew going into it that it was|probably going to be a one-way trip,
{30190}{30296}but we thought what we would|find here would be worth the risk.
{30297}{30328}And is it?
{30330}{30360}So far.
{30361}{30410}Ask me again when the Wraith show up.
{30422}{30515}Blood work shows no viral,|bacterial, or parasitic infections.
{30540}{30660}Mri reveals no tumors or cancers,|no heart defects of any kind.
{30672}{30801}Blood pressure 130 over 70,|total cholesterol 107.
{30802}{30852}She's in perfect health.
{30863}{30896}I'm happy for her.
{30897}{30948}Why did we need to see this?
{30949}{30990}Because, doctor,|she's too healthy.
{30991}{31016}What does that mean?
{31017}{31085}There's no trace of any|diseases or congenital conditions
{31086}{31146}that you typically find in|pretechnological societies.
{31172}{31215}No rickets, no fungi, stds...
{31232}{31259}perfect health?
{31260}{31371}Aye, and from what she told me,|this may be the norm among her people.
{31372}{31397}But she is human?
{31399}{31423}Oh, without a doubt.
{31424}{31448}So how is that possible?
{31462}{31538}I can't say that for certain|without visiting the planet myself,
{31539}{31609}but if this data is accurate,|then people on Proculis
{31634}{31705}live in optimal health for a|very, very long time.
{31706}{31763}- You make it sound like some sort of a... |- paradise?
{31764}{31802}Aye, because it is.
{31808}{31867}And that's a problem because...
{31868}{32017}because human life, quite simply,|dr. Weir, is more fragile than that.
{32038}{32076}I don't care what galaxy we're in.
{32090}{32120}It's unnatural.
{32300}{32353}The ocean air is so invigorating.
{32364}{32391}Plenty of that here.
{32420}{32462}Most of the planet's ocean.
{32500}{32563}Well surely there's enough|land to resettle the refugees.
{32564}{32588}Well, there is.
{32589}{32642}We just can't guarantee their safety.
{32643}{32694}Even though you control all of this?
{32695}{32780}I'd be lying if I said we controlled it all.
{32802}{32881}This place is so far beyond us in so many ways.
{32886}{32959}For example, Atlantis does have a|shield that can withstand anything
{32961}{33033}the Wraith could throw at us,|but we have no way of powering it up.
{33062}{33132}We can't risk taking in any|more refugees than we already have.
{33207}{33226}Come with me.
{33300}{33327}Major Sheppard...
{33328}{33362}I'd prefer you call me John.
{33382}{33401}John...
{33416}{33458}how did you make enemies of the Wraith?
{33459}{33502}That was my fault.
{33503}{33527}Yours?
{33528}{33611}I basically woke them up trying to|rescue some people they'd captured.
{33612}{33649}They didn't take too kindly to that.
{33650}{33694}But you saved your people?
{33730}{33748}Most of them.
{33760}{33811}And that is how you know|for sure they're coming back?
{33820}{33866}Yeah, we just don't know when.
{33898}{34070}Main control console, environmental|support systems, communications,
{34078}{34171}and this, this is, uh...
{34225}{34287}Sorry, Major.|We haven't the faintest idea what it...
{34353}{34449}this is a new piece of equipment|we found in another section of the city.
{34450}{34489}It hadn't yet been initialized.
{34490}{34521}So you're saying she has...
{34522}{34550}she has the gene.
{34564}{34593}Then I did this?
{34610}{34644}What does the machine do?
{34645}{34690}We don't know. Not yet, anyway.
{34691}{34733}The Atlanteans were good at lots of things,
{34742}{34804}but writing instruction|manuals wasn't one of them.
{34828}{34875}We should probably wrap this tour up.
{34910}{34985}I know dr. Weir is anxious to talk to you.
{34998}{35032}Will I see you afterwards?
{35033}{35061}And during.
{35177}{35240}What we are proposing |is a kind of land lease,
{35241}{35288}in which refugees rendered homeless
{35289}{35334}by the Wraith could resettle on Proculis.
{35352}{35400}In return, we can offer|you services and knowledge
{35401}{35433}which would be of benefit to your people.
{35434}{35453}Such as?
{35454}{35518}Well, you've seen the sort|of technology we possess here.
{35519}{35598}We could help you down a path|to a more industrialized society,
{35599}{35677}but at a pace that will maintain|your planet's ecological balance.
{35678}{35799}Your scientific knowledge is impressive,|dr. Weir, but we have no need of it.
{35804}{35859}Athar provides us with everything we require.
{35860}{35935}Well, food just doesn't|show up on the dinner table.
{35936}{35987}You do plant all your own crops?
{36000}{36018}Of course we do.
{36019}{36069}We can show you ways|to increase your crop yields.
{36070}{36121}We grow all the food we need to live.
{36122}{36160}Anything else would be gluttony.
{36193}{36222}Building materials, then.
{36223}{36298}We have abundant timber and iron ore|to forge what little metal we need.
{36320}{36347}Athar is kind.
{36457}{36487}There must be something.
{36516}{36598}What my people value|most is spiritual knowledge.
{36599}{36657}What can your culture provide in that regard?
{36730}{36821}Earth's people don't share|a single spiritual belief.
{36835}{36928}We embrace a number of|different religions and philosophies...
{36932}{36975}Christianity, Buddhism,
{36976}{37019}Judaism, Islam...
{37050}{37070}Hinduism.
{37100}{37130}Kwanzaa...
{37140}{37167}Interesting.
{37168}{37199}Tell me about them.
{37200}{37226}All of them?
{37227}{37253}Yes. They sound fascinating.
{37281}{37359}Well, I am hardly competent|to discuss all of Earth's religions,
{37360}{37405}but I can offer you some resources.
{37406}{37486}With very little training, you could have|complete access to our historical database.
{37510}{37552}That would be wonderful.
{37639}{37655}You got it working?
{37656}{37676}Yeah.
{37704}{37732}Well, do we know what it does?
{37741}{37818}It would appear to be an|internal-external biometric sensor array.
{37819}{37876}See, now, sadly, I understood that.
{37900}{37935}Where did all those saturday nights go?
{37936}{38000}These seem to be the|biosignatures of everyone in Atlantis.
{38001}{38060}How can you tell? I can't make |heads or tails out of that mess.
{38061}{38121}I've been working on|deciphering the ancient logarithms.
{38122}{38197}I suspect this was designed|primarily as an early warning system,
{38198}{38239}to signal any alien presence|in the city, like the Wraith.
{38240}{38346}And you're saying that it|activated when our visitor touched it?
{38347}{38382}Which must mean she has the ancient gene.
{38383}{38463}Or it was initialized already and only|activated because it was detecting her.
{38464}{38516}I mean, she could be some kind of an alien,
{38517}{38569}and this thing knows more about|her than we've been able to decipher.
{38600}{38639}Someone should be keeping an eye on her.
{38640}{38666}Major Sheppard is.
{38667}{38698}Oh, I'm sure he is.
{38699}{38742}Not entirely for the reasons you think.
{38743}{38772}Dr. Weir asked him to.
{38782}{38809}Oh, I'm sure she did.
{38975}{39017}Dr. Weir wanted me to make|sure Chaya saw everything.
{39018}{39036}Everything?
{39037}{39076}Well, not everything, everything.
{39077}{39152}Chaya mentioned she wanted to|see the best view of the city at night,
{39153}{39256}which I think is atop the southwest pier,|and since it's such a long walk,
{39257}{39322}I thought I'd bring along a few provisions.
{39348}{39403}Continuing our efforts to secure a treaty.
{39404}{39429}Exactly.
{39438}{39474}As our ambassador.
{39548}{39628}I am an ambassador, and she is a...
{39646}{39659}diplomat.
{39685}{39765}On a late-night...picnic?
{39783}{39803}Yes.
{39846}{39926}I know that as ranking|military officer here in Atlantis
{39927}{39987}that you feel a heavy burden of responsibility,
{40000}{40023}but you...
{40024}{40087}are allowed to have feelings for others.
{40088}{40129}Oh. No, this is a...
{40130}{40239}this is an ambassadorial,|diplomatic picnic outing.
{40240}{40259}Without...
{40260}{40323}having to justify them to anyone.
{40359}{40387}Good night, Major.
{40462}{40511}Good night, Teyla.
{40618}{40650}You want to send her back?
{40651}{40712}All I know is she's not who|she's pretending to be.
{40713}{40738}And you know this because...
{40739}{40767}what, I'm not allowed to have intuition?
{40768}{40793}You? No.
{40825}{40861}I asked Major Sheppard|to keep an eye on her.
{40862}{40942}Which is like asking the|fox to guard the henhouse.
{40943}{40961}What?
{40962}{41046}Well, look, the biometric|differential is not insignificant, Elizabeth.
{41070}{41102}What I'm saying is...
{41103}{41145}the woman set off an alien alarm.
{41146}{41198}Come on, you don't know that for certain.
{41199}{41298}Now, grodin says you are nowhere close to|understanding what the nature of that device is.
{41299}{41378}There are too many unknown variables.|There's the energy weapon,
{41379}{41407}the fact that they claim never|to have seen the Wraith...
{41408}{41466}what about the fact that she's|essentially a textbook case of healthy?
{41467}{41526}All very mysterious, yes,|but what does it prove?
{41527}{41590}That we should give her|a one-way ticket back home.
{41591}{41641}There is obviously something very...
{41642}{41736}different about her, yes, but that|doesn't necessarily make her a threat.
{41737}{41781}It doesn't rule it out, either.
{41790}{41840}Then, for the moment,|I think what we could gain
{41841}{41908}by securing a treaty is worth|the risk of her being here.
{41939}{41960}Fine.
{42110}{42140}This is delicious.
{42172}{42245}Well, enjoy it while you can,|because that's the last of what we have.
{42246}{42287}Then I am honored.
{42327}{42385}When McKay finds out,|he's going to kill me.
{42386}{42422}Athar will save you.
{42423}{42455}Oh, good.
{42518}{42552}Such wondrous things.
{42570}{42656}I can't imagine wanting to do anything but|eat all the time with such a variety of foods.
{42670}{42736}Well, we manage to pull|ourselves away somehow.
{42757}{42796}I've been learning much about Earth.
{42800}{42865}Dr. Weir has gotten me|on your information machines.
{42872}{42948}Elizabeth's got you on|a computer already, huh?
{42960}{43001}I'm fascinated by your many religions.
{43012}{43042}So many beliefs.
{43050}{43082}So many philosophies.
{43092}{43125}Yeah, we've got a few of those.
{43132}{43171}So many contradictory faiths.
{43188}{43219}Yeah, it's a bit of a mess.
{43293}{43313}More?
{43333}{43354}Yes, please.
{43383}{43434}We traded for grapes.
{43457}{43523}The athosians, Teyla's people,
{43524}{43562}they make this on the mainland.
{43591}{43688}I wasn't completely truthful|with you about something.
{43764}{43832}On Proculis, when I told|you I did not feel lonely...
{43872}{43937}coming here and being with you...
{43970}{44035}it reminded me what it|was like not to be alone.
{44221}{44238}What?
{44239}{44281}Well, I mean, nothing.
{44294}{44323}It's just that...
{44324}{44467}this is the first time I've been in a romantic|situation with a woman from another planet,
{44468}{44503}and it just strikes me as really,...
{44528}{44546}wrong?
{44547}{44575}No. God, no.
{44576}{44605}Just... just...
{44606}{44634}funny.
{44672}{44693}I'm sorry.
{44694}{44712}I just thought
{44713}{44733}that I would, uh...
{44764}{44788}you said it yourself...
{44789}{44816}we're both human.
{44842}{45007}Yes, we are, and I'm really glad you|didn't say "family" otherwise I'd have to leave.
{45062}{45080}Don't.
{45234}{45269}I'm not going anywhere.
{45729}{45748}Major.
{45772}{45791}Rodney.
{45792}{45820}What are you doing up so late?
{45821}{45862}I was just, uh...
{45863}{45920}I couldn't sleep, so I was going back up|to the control room to do a little research.
{45921}{45941}What about you?
{45943}{45962}Oh, no thanks.
{45963}{46023}No, I mean, what were you doing up so late?
{46024}{46043}I'm always up late, rodney.
{46070}{46099}A word of caution...
{46100}{46243}the whole captain kirk routine is problematic,|to say the least, let alone morally dubious.
{46244}{46266}What routine?
{46267}{46299}The romancing, the alien priestess.
{46300}{46337}It's very 1967 of you.
{46338}{46356}Actually, I'm surprised...
{46357}{46430}if and when anything I do|becomes your business...
{46431}{46532}it becomes my business, major, when an alien|woman who is clearly not who she claims to be
{46533}{46601}has the ranking military officer|wrapped around her little finger.
{46602}{46626}Don't go there, McKay.
{46639}{46656}I'm sorry.
{46657}{46731}I know I'm not normally|mr. Sensitive, but you've got to
{46732}{46777}believe me when I say|there is something about her.
{46778}{46817}I know it's intangible, but I can feel it...
{46818}{46860}I said, don't go there.
{46861}{46949}It's just a matter of time|before I prove it, Major.
{46950}{47012}I'm just recommending that in|the meantime, you keep your...
{47474}{47499}did you sleep last night?
{47500}{47566}No. This is the data|from the biometric sensors.
{47569}{47678}I can't tell you exactly what all of|these signatures mean, but, uh, look at this,
{47706}{47742}these are ours, and this, this is hers.
{47743}{47777}There's a distinct difference.
{47778}{47853}She was born on another|planet in another galaxy.
{47854}{47892}They're different from Teyla's too.
{47893}{47910}That doesn't mean...
{47911}{47961}Elizabeth, she's not|what she seems to be.
{47962}{48042}I sense nothing but a very|honest and spiritual person.
{48043}{48066}All right.
{48067}{48122}there may be a way to find out.
{48123}{48171}You're opening negotiations|with her this morning, right?
{48172}{48194}Yeah.
{48195}{48215}Okay, well, let me sit in.
{48216}{48269}I'll pretend to be taking notes on the laptop|when really I'll be scanning her for anomalies.
{48270}{48349}Radiation, E.M. Scans, energy signatures...
{48350}{48439}that way, if I am crazy, you and I|are the only ones who need to know.
{48440}{48465}Now, what's the harm?
{48479}{48507}All right...
{48523}{48562}but be discreet.
{48563}{48601}I'm mr. Discreet.
{48684}{48764}I admit to being impressed by most|of what I've read of Earth's religions.
{48765}{48830}The torah, the koran,|the talmud, the bible...
{48860}{48942}most of them reveal a diverse|and deep desire to grasp the divine.
{48943}{48995}So we do have something we can offer you.
{49004}{49046}But I've also been reading about your history.
{49047}{49148}Even now, somewhere on|your planet, you are at war.
{49149}{49196}Well, yeah, that's true.
{49197}{49256}I made no attempt to|hide that fact from you.
{49268}{49316}Chaya, we are definitely not perfect.
{49324}{49386}There's a lot about you as|a people that I find disturbing.
{49387}{49436}Can that not be said of any people?
{49437}{49453}No.
{49462}{49543}Every soul in Proculis is free|from the hatred and the anger
{49544}{49590}the people from Earth|seem to feel for each other.
{49591}{49608}Come on.
{49609}{49633}We're not all that bad.
{49634}{49648}You know that.
{49649}{49678}I do.
{49694}{49740}We're not talking about|the people on Earth.
{49741}{49847}I'm talking about every member|of my expedition team here, in Atlantis,
{49848}{49938}and I'm talking about the friends we've|met since coming here, like Teyla's people.
{49973}{50035}There are some among you,|yourself included, Dr. Weir
{50036}{50087}that I know Athar would|welcome with open arms...
{50118}{50145}but there are others.
{50172}{50232}I hand-picked every|member of this expedition,
{50233}{50314}and I know Teyla feels as|confident about her own people.
{50343}{50366}I'm sure.
{50367}{50431}At the end of the day,|this is a matter of trust.
{50437}{50458}Yes.
{50481}{50519}It is, dr. Weir.
{50543}{50623}Have your scans found|anything yet, Dr. McKay?
{50759}{50791}Actually...
{50842}{50862}no.
{50892}{50924}What the hell is this?
{50925}{50954}I'm sorry, Major.
{50955}{51017}There was cause for|legitimate concern as to...
{51018}{51064}whether I was or not who I claimed to be.
{51082}{51105}I'm sorry, Chaya.
{51106}{51152}I honestly felt it would do no harm.
{51153}{51201}Stop apologizing, Elizabeth.
{51212}{51235}How did she know?
{51236}{51255}McKay...
{51256}{51302}she's an ancient, Major.
{51303}{51322}She's what?
{51336}{51357}I'm right, aren't I?
{51370}{51408}The perfect health, the energy weapon,
{51409}{51432}the fact that she has the gene...
{51433}{51492}it's the only logical explanation.
{51493}{51551}What the hell are you talking about?
{51552}{51594}I just don't understand the act.
{51595}{51701}I mean, you must know we'd give just about|anything to talk to you, to learn from you.
{51723}{51743}I mean, what is it?
{51744}{51808}What, are you... checking us out?
{51824}{51880}I see that in my desire to come to Atlantis,
{51881}{51921}I have revealed too much of myself.
{51922}{51946}He's right?
{51948}{51971}I'm right?
{51994}{52040}I am what you call an "Ancient"...
{52070}{52151}and it is also true that I can|never offer your people sanctuary...
{52152}{52234}but you are wrong as to why I came here.
{52235}{52272}Why did you come here?
{52308}{52327}You, John.
{52383}{52399}Me?
{52400}{52503}I have lived in solitude for so long that|when you asked me to come to Atlantis, I...
{52504}{52550}oh, my god, he is Kirk.
{52575}{52619}So this was never about, ...
{52704}{52768}could we just have a|moment to ourselves here?
{52769}{52792}No.
{52800}{52834}That's all right.
{52835}{52900}I've stayed here long enough.
{53112}{53137}Come on, Chaya.
{53151}{53221}You and your people were the|reason we came here in the first place.
{53222}{53279}I can't... I can't...
{53447}{53463}no.
{53490}{53517}What the hell was that?
{53554}{53583}They're coming for them.
{53611}{53650}I should have never left them.
{53651}{53687}What's going on?
{53720}{53740}I'm sorry, John.
{54285}{54326}I'm taking a jumper back to Proculis.
{54338}{54369}What just happened?
{54382}{54417}There's only one way to find out.
{54433}{54454}Go.
{55004}{55044}Major, are you sure you|know what you're flying into?
{55050}{55106}I have a pretty good idea the|Wraith are attacking Chaya's people.
{55169}{55226} You can't hope to|defend them with one ship!
{55240}{55266}I don't think I'll have to.
{56201}{56227}What are you doing here?
{56229}{56254}I'm here to help you.
{56275}{56291}Help me?
{56292}{56341}To defend your people.
{56399}{56412}Leave.
{56452}{56487}I will take care of this.
{57486}{57515}Is it "Chaya"...
{57528}{57573}or "Athar"?|I'm just curious.
{57574}{57618}When I was mortal, I lived here.
{57632}{57661}This was my home.
{57681}{57753}When those of us who|you call the ancients ascended,
{57754}{57824}we were supposed to|leave behind us all human ties.
{57825}{57883}Some of us found that difficult.
{57910}{57962}So you couldn't|stand by and watch your people
{57963}{57985}getting wiped out by the Wraith.
{57986}{58061}When their terrible fleet approached,|I lashed out with my mind
{58062}{58101}and with a single thought,|destroyed them all.
{58122}{58188}The others of my kind did not|approve of such interference
{58189}{58294}with corporeal matters,|and so I was exiled.
{58317}{58403}My punishment was the|unending protection of this world.
{58541}{58587}Why pretend to be human at all?
{58588}{58676}So that, time to time,|I may walk among the people,
{58677}{58757}know them as the good and kind souls they are.
{58758}{58884}For thousands of years,|I have come and gone to the villages,
{58885}{58946}never staying too long|to get attached to anyone...
{58983}{59014}until I met you.
{59054}{59128}I have never regretted the|choice I made all of these years...
{59150}{59172}until now.
{59223}{59296}I am permitted to safeguard|my people, but my people only.
{59312}{59349}This is my punishment.
{59384}{59428}This is what makes it punishment.
{59472}{59534}If your people came|here for my protection,
{59535}{59574}the others would stop me.
{59575}{59616}Do you understand?
{59617}{59661}I can never help your people.
{59740}{59815}I'm not sure I'm willing|to walk away that easily,
{59816}{59860}and I'm not just talking personally here,
{59861}{59920}although that's definitely part of it...
{59958}{60018}there is so much more|we can learn from you.
{60019}{60061}I can't, John.
{60062}{60104}The others won't allow it.
{60105}{60125}That's just...
{60126}{60176}it is their highest law to never interfere.
{60204}{60320}I am bound by those laws,|however much I wish to help you.
{60339}{60388}So, uh, we can never...
{60389}{60416}I can never leave.
{60455}{60503}Well, I could come and visit.
{60587}{60667}Now I'm flirting with|somebody from another species.
{60668}{60733}We're not as different as you think.
{60734}{60786}Oh, I think we're more|different than you think.
{60837}{60864}I can show you.
{60904}{60921}Show me?
{60940}{60983}By sharing each other.
{60999}{61058}We will know each other|as well as anyone ever can.
{61059}{61122}Okay.
{61123}{61199}I've got to get the car|back by midnight, though.
{61222}{61286}This will only take a few moments.
{61324}{61371}Just close your eyes.
{61610}{61675}This is cool...
