It was a massacre. 215 00:18:52,054 --> 00:18:56,366 All but a few were killed. The rest were ostracised and sent away. 216 00:18:56,534 --> 00:19:00,925 After that, no others that were taken from that village ever returned again, 217 00:19:01,094 --> 00:19:03,449 but those few who survived, 218 00:19:03,614 --> 00:19:08,608 they are the ones who Charin believes passed on the gift. 219 00:19:08,774 --> 00:19:12,847 - And one of the taken that survived was... - My lineage. 220 00:19:13,014 --> 00:19:15,528 I have the address to the planet. 221 00:19:15,694 --> 00:19:19,767 Charin says the village is long gone. All that is left are ruins. 222 00:19:19,934 --> 00:19:23,768 - Still I wish to go there. - Now? 223 00:19:23,934 --> 00:19:28,007 I believe this must be coming to light now for a reason. 224 00:19:28,174 --> 00:19:31,211 Maybe we can find evidence of what really happened. 225 00:19:31,374 --> 00:19:34,013 There are a lot of things we need to get done. 226 00:19:34,174 --> 00:19:37,849 Maybe there is a way to fight the Wraith we have yet to discover. 227 00:19:38,014 --> 00:19:42,007 Perhaps my ancestors were simply not enlightened enough 228 00:19:42,174 --> 00:19:45,246 to recognise their gift for what it was. 229 00:19:48,374 --> 00:19:50,842 Doesn't hurt to take a look around. 230 00:20:00,534 --> 00:20:03,048 - Sir, there's nothing here. - I know. 231 00:20:03,214 --> 00:20:07,207 - It's dark.

Some sort of hidden secret facility. 252 00:21:53,174 --> 00:21:56,803 It's obviously been abandoned for a very long time. 253 00:21:56,974 --> 00:22:00,853 I pulled this data recorder from one of the computer consoles. 254 00:22:01,014 --> 00:22:03,574 The Wraith were experimenting on the people? 255 00:22:03,734 --> 00:22:06,965 - No idea. Hoping this will tell us. - Why the secrecy? 256 00:22:07,134 --> 00:22:12,447 The Wraith can take people at will and do whatever they want with them. 257 00:22:12,614 --> 00:22:14,844 Here we go. 258 00:22:16,694 --> 00:22:18,013 There. 259 00:22:18,174 --> 00:22:22,247 Now... that means absolutely nothing to me. 260 00:22:22,414 --> 00:22:26,930 Last time I saw one of these, it showed a galactic positioning system for ships. 261 00:22:27,094 --> 00:22:30,643 - More pictures than symbols. - I wonder... 262 00:22:32,334 --> 00:22:35,610 Just so you know, you didn't finish that sentence out loud. 263 00:22:35,774 --> 00:22:39,130 - Well, this is obviously a language. - Wraith language? 264 00:22:39,294 --> 00:22:42,809 That would make sense. I'd love to have a look through this. 265 00:22:42,974 --> 00:22:47,047 Knock yourself out. I gotta get back to the control chair anyway. 266 00:22:52,094 --> 00:22:55,723 - Why could only you access the doorway? - I don't know. 267 00:22:55,894 --> 00:22:58,283 Only a Wraith can enter a Wraith facility? 268 00:22:58,454 --> 00:23:03,608 - I'm not a Wraith. - What does it feel like to be a Wraith? 269 00:23:03,774 --> 00:23:05,890 I feel hungry. 270 00:23:07,774 --> 00:23:09,844 (gasps) 271 00:23:16,774 --> 00:23:19,334 Remember what happened last time I sat in one? 272 00:23:19,494 --> 00:23:23,487 - There's nowhere near enough power. - Then why bother? It's quite late. 273 00:23:23,654 --> 00:23:28,728 We are trying to determine how much power is required to operate the systems. 274 00:23:28,894 --> 00:23:31,806 - And it needs to be on. - You have the gene now. 275 00:23:31,974 --> 00:23:35,569 I can't analyse the data while keeping the damn thing activated. 276 00:23:35,734 --> 00:23:38,123 - You analyse it. - Rodney doesn't think... 277 00:23:38,294 --> 00:23:40,933 - Gentlemen, how's it coming? - Well, not good. 278 00:23:41,094 --> 00:23:44,131 - This won't help.

I'm not sure Teyla's thinking about what's best for herself. 503 00:38:18,414 --> 00:38:20,245 She could compromise us further. 504 00:38:20,414 --> 00:38:23,611 We have more to gain from the Wraith than they do from us. 505 00:38:23,774 --> 00:38:27,687 She wants to do it. There may be nothing we can do to stop her trying, 506 00:38:27,854 --> 00:38:31,767 so isn't it better if we're all there? 507 00:38:36,254 --> 00:38:39,530 OK.
