{2011}{2049}Major Sheppard.
{2080}{2109}Major!
{2894}{2976}Season 1 : Episode 18|The Gift
{3087}{3162}Team24 and SG-66 for seriestele.net and Forom.com|Transcript: Raceman
{4819}{4850}Continue.
{4867}{4904}Going easy on me, huh?
{4908}{4950}I assure you, Major, I am not.
{4953}{4976}Continue.
{5230}{5264}You okay?
{5323}{5348}Yes.
{5351}{5377}Are you sure?
{5391}{5448}Because it's usually me|picking my butt up off the mat.
{5452}{5512}Truthfully, I have not been sleeping much,
{5520}{5584}and when I do,|I've been having nightmares about the Wraith.
{5587}{5625}Well, you're not the only one.
{5653}{5725}It has not been so bad since my father was taken.
{5956}{6025}According to Dr. Zelenka's calculations,
{6025}{6097}we have less than one week before the Wraith arrive.
{6107}{6142}I want options.
{6153}{6202}You mean besides crying ourselves to sleep?
{6231}{6285}Well, not me.|I haven't slept in days.
{6289}{6354}And what do you have to show|for your sleepless nights, Rodney?
{6355}{6454}Since we got here, we've uncovered a number|of defensive weapons systems beyond the shield...
{6455}{6540}- We think our best option is the control chair.|- I was going to say that.
{6541}{6609}- Yes, but you were taking too long, as usual.|- Yes, but the point is, this may not be our best chance.
{6614}{6643}- Name a better one.|- Gentlemen.
{6643}{6720}Of course, like the shield,|power will be our biggest problem.
{6721}{6775}We haven't even been able to initialize the chair yet,
{6776}{6838}much less determine whether we can|meet the power requirements to run it.
{6840}{6874}Okay. Keep me posted.
{6888}{6963}Sergeant Bates, where are we with our alpha site?
{6966}{7069}We've completed the ground and aerial security|sweep and are ready to begin establishing base camp.
{7069}{7122}We're just awaiting final inspection by major Sheppard.
{7126}{7153}Right after lunch.
{7155}{7189}Good.
{7194}{7263}Teyla, are the Athosians getting|prepared for an evacuation?
{7265}{7343}Yes, but many believe there is|no other world that is safe from the Wraith.
{7363}{7397}They want to stay?
{7397}{7509}As we have heard from our allies and seen for ourselves,|there are cullings happening all over the galaxy.
{7511}{7561}My people have spent|their lives hiding from the Wraith.
{7565}{7652}Yes, well, the difference here|being we do intend to destroy the city
{7655}{7697}rather than let it fall into the hands of the Wraith,
{7711}{7829}and, if it comes to that, anyone left on the|mainland will be cut off from the Stargate for good.
{7840}{7932}Now, thanks to Rodney's discovery|of the Gate's control crystal,
{7937}{8001}we at least know we'll be able|to take that with us and hopefully use it
{8002}{8043}to access Earth again some time in the future.
{8043}{8079}We understand that, Dr. Weir.
{8119}{8139}- I'm sorry, I...
{8139}{8192}I am merely saying that|the people of Athos wish you to know
{8198}{8276}that if we are going to stay and fight,|they too will help defend the city of the ancestors.
{8278}{8346}- Well that is very honorable, but I...|- Oh please !
{8351}{8403}We can't possibly consider staying and fighting.
{8411}{8443}Well, I disagree.
{8451}{8522}I think it's entirely within the realm of possibility.
{8524}{8669}There are tens of thousands of life-sucking aliens in|highly advanced spaceships on their way here to destroy us.
{8685}{8751}And we have what, 200 people,|most of whom are scientists
{8758}{8801}who've never even fired a gun before?
{8802}{8893}Shockingly, for the first time ever,|I find myself having to agree with Kavanagh.
{8895}{8980}All I'm saying is let's not give up... just yet.
{8995}{9038}What was that we were supposed to all remember?
{9046}{9070}Something important.
{9082}{9120}Oh, yes, that's right... the Alamo.
{9144}{9242}Granted, you guys are scientists. No one's|considering putting you guys on the front line,
{9246}{9295}but science can turn the tide of war.
{9299}{9338}Look at the a-bomb.
{9339}{9391}Not exactly our proudest moment.
{9396}{9437}The fact is, the Wraith aren't here quite yet,
{9447}{9530}and until that moment, I would like everyone|to remain focused on what it is they do best.
{9552}{9661}Like I said off the top,|if there are any options, I want them.
{9669}{9694}That's all.
{10121}{10155}Teyla?
{10191}{10209}Hi.
{10226}{10267}Kate Heightmeyer.
{10279}{10340}Yes. Right.|I knew that. I'm sorry.
{10359}{10412}No problem.|Mind if I join you?
{10434}{10483}No, of course not.
{10526}{10589}Strange how the memory|just goes away when we're tired.
{10613}{10688}- You are a doctor, right?|- Psychologist, actually.
{10720}{10790}And that is different than Dr. Beckett?
{10799}{10844}Quite, yes.
{10872}{10907}I deal with the mind.
{10921}{10978}I try and help people deal with emotional problems,
{10985}{11066}like anxiety, depression, post-traumatic distress.
{11081}{11143}Well, needless to say,|I've been pretty busy since we got here.
{11167}{11198}I can imagine.
{11202}{11282}I'm sure that you do a lot of the|same things that I do for your people,
{11314}{11407}but it must be very hard on you,|always having to keep such a brave face.
{11416}{11474}From strength comes hope.
{11480}{11525}Without hope, my people would be lost.
{11577}{11642}You must feel you have to be|outwardly strong for us, as well.
{11712}{11836}Teyla, I know that your value and your loyalty|have been questioned by a few here in the past.
{11841}{11943}What I'm trying to say to you is,|if you ever need to talk, I'm here.
{11945}{11993}Did major Sheppard ask you to speak with me?
{12011}{12038}Yes, he may have...
{12038}{12063}I'm sorry.
{12076}{12145}I do not mean to be rude, but I'm fine.
{12155}{12183}Really.
{12289}{12340}I appreciate your concern.
{12675}{12703}Major.
{12739}{12757}Teyla.
{12759}{12795}What did you tell Dr. Heightmeyer?
{12805}{12883}Exactly what you told me. That you|couldn't sleep because you were having nightmares.
{12908}{12950}I confided in you.
{12957}{13027}You're a member of my team,|which makes you my responsibility,
{13027}{13163}and I only told one person, whose job, by the way,|is to deal exactly with this sort of thing.
{13170}{13226}There is nothing wrong with my mind.
{13231}{13266}Nobody said there was.
{13274}{13369}I have a hard enough time getting your people|to respect me without them thinking I'm crazy.
{13373}{13429}Nobody thinks you're crazy,|and everybody respects you.
{13432}{13463}That is not the point.
{13470}{13562}Look, Teyla, you may want to sit this one out.
{13581}{13604}What do you mean?
{13606}{13655}Well, Rodney's staying back,|and Ford and I are just going to
{13655}{13725}check out the alpha site|one last time before we have to move in.
{13738}{13810}Should we evacuate, my people|will be forced to that planet as well.
{13810}{13862}And I'll make sure it's safe for everyone.
{13876}{13966}Look, Teyla, I'm not saying|there's anything wrong with you.
{13967}{14068}God forbid, but you yourself admitted|that you were a little off your game.
{14077}{14145}You snapped at Dr. Weir this morning|in the briefing room for no good reason.
{14153}{14194}Now you're biting my head off|for caring that you might need help
{14195}{14274}dealing with the fact that it's been|three days since you've had any sleep.
{14283}{14356}I'm sorry, but I do not need any help.
{14365}{14435}The Wraith are coming.|What I need is to do something.
{14436}{14475}Okay. Good.
{14486}{14529}I suggest you take a nap.
{15391}{15448}- Teyla.|- Dr. McKay.
{15468}{15505}I was just, um...
{15550}{15583}We're seeing each other.
{15654}{15706}You and Dr. Heightmeyer?
{15775}{15855}Well, you know how much|I love women with great... minds.
{15859}{15927}Just don't say anything to... anyone.
{15937}{15971}Your secret is safe with me.
{15972}{16007}Right. Very good. Excellent.
{16164}{16199}Dr. Heightmeyer?
{16202}{16241}Teyla. Come in.
{16245}{16284}I'm sorry to bother you.
{16296}{16358}- Is it all right if I...|- Of course.
{16367}{16399}Please, have a seat.
{16698}{16779}I guess I'm not really sure|how this is supposed to work.
{16796}{16832}Just relax.
{16842}{16881}Tell me whatever's on your mind.
{16954}{17011}I have been having bad dreams.
{17051}{17076}I feel...
{17203}{17253}Everyone on this base is probably afraid.
{17259}{17332}- I do not know why I'm bothering you...|- Have you always been able to sense the Wraith?
{17362}{17434}Yes. Since I can remember.
{17445}{17477}Well, what does it feel like?
{17727}{17857}It feels like a deep cold that comes from within.
{17894}{17942}I first felt it when I was a girl.
{17971}{18086}I could not breathe, and I did not know why,|and then we heard the darts.
{18112}{18158}Do you feel that way now?
{18186}{18283}I have had a knot inside me for some time now.
{18306}{18388}As I understand, though,|their ships are still a great distance from Atlantis.
{18401}{18454}Can you really sense them from so far away?
{18495}{18588}This feeling is a little different than in the past.
{18617}{18675}Perhaps it is because it is always there now.
{18682}{18715}I am getting used to it.
{18764}{18862}Never before in my lifetime|have so many Wraith been awake.
{18877}{18930}Do many of your people have this ability?
{18938}{18967}Some.
{18980}{19075}Among those few, some can|sense the Wraith stronger than others.
{19104}{19172}I have always been among|the first to know they are coming.
{19173}{19212}That makes you special.
{19229}{19250}How does that make you feel?
{19252}{19323}I do not know.|I suppose I have not given it much thought.
{19332}{19350}Why not?
{19351}{19414}Why do some people have blue eyes and others brown?
{19541}{19595}Tell me about your nightmares.
{20638}{20671}It was me.
{20681}{20739}You were standing over yourself?
{20747}{20809}It was me... but it was not me.
{20819}{20856}I was a Wraith.
{20860}{20940}The truth is, people waste a lot of|time trying to interpret their dreams.
{20948}{21002}They're really just another way|our brain thinks when we're asleep.
{21003}{21038}There are no hidden meanings.
{21049}{21117}In fact, we tend to forget|most everything we dream about.
{21120}{21221}Our conscious mind is capable|of deciding what's most important to us.
{21224}{21332}Well, the fact that, on some level,|I see myself as a Wraith is very disturbing to me.
{21348}{21472}I think this special ability you have,|this talent for sensing the Wraith,
{21474}{21597}connects you to them in your mind,|maybe in a way you would like to deny.
{21635}{21730}You said you hadn't really given it much thought|in the past. I don't think that's true.
{21740}{21803}What am I supposed to do? I cannot change it.
{21804}{21908}Probably not, but the unknown frightens us.
{21924}{22090}We all like to feel in control, even though most of the|time our power over most things is just an illusion,
{22103}{22256}but I find the more we know about something, the more|we can convince ourselves we are in control of it.
{22334}{22405}I ran every test I could on all of you from the get-go.
{22406}{22471}Physiologically, you and|your people are the same as we are.
{22474}{22544}I have no explanation for any|of your special super powers.
{22546}{22585}I only have one.
{22594}{22639}I've seen you fight, my dear.
{22648}{22759}I have previously traced this ability as something|that is passed on through family lineage.
{22761}{22805}Does that not make it biological?
{22806}{22902}It would seem so, but without genetic samples|from everyone in your family tree,
{22904}{23040}I would have little to no chance of identifying the specific|characteristic that causes the anatomical response.
{23060}{23110}It'd be difficult.
{23138}{23213}Any chance you would have time|to fly me over to the mainland?
{23226}{23285}If you're willing to take your life into your own hands.
{23320}{23360}I'd love a break.
{23767}{23817}You've changed, Teyla.
{23820}{23856}My hair is shorter.
{23860}{23918}It's more than your hair, dear.
{23922}{24050}I can still see the little girl|who used to paint me beautiful pictures
{24051}{24120}while she sang the songs of the Ancients.
{24121}{24184}I have not been that girl in a long time, Charin.
{24187}{24355}No, but even Teyla, leader of the Athosians, always|found the time to come and visit with poor, old Charin.
{24360}{24418}I have missed your tuttleroot soup.
{24421}{24522}But I suspect it's more than my soup|that has brought you here.
{24533}{24641}You've come to pluck me from my tent|and take me to yet another world.
{24650}{24820}Not yet, but it seems we may have|to evacuate again soon, at least temporarily.
{24853}{24927}Did you allow yourself to expect differently?
{24930}{25016}I still believe that we can|one day be free of the Wraith.
{25039}{25157}You can save such stories for those|whose bones aren't failing them.
{25240}{25260}Charin...
{25280}{25340}do you know why I can sense the Wraith coming?
{25343}{25389}You were born to it.
{25392}{25461}There have been a few in every generation.
{25465}{25563}I know, but has no one ever|wondered how that is possible?
{25567}{25673}Some believe it was a gift from the ancestors.
{25675}{25722}And you?
{25765}{25861}Your father asked me not to tell you.
{25886}{25982}My father is not here anymore.
{26023}{26186}No other living Athosian|knows of this, for good reason.
{26220}{26261}Please.
{26264}{26318}Tell me anyway.
{26344}{26470}My grandfather used to tell a story...
{26471}{26565}no one has ever heard the like, before or since...
{26565}{26680}about the few who once returned.
{26690}{26730}Returned?
{26767}{26830}There was a planet...
{26830}{26950}as was expected, every so often, the Wraith came,
{26951}{27084}villagers were taken, but there,|on this particular planet,
{27090}{27247}on several occasions, the taken came back.
{27363}{27445}Some believed that the ancestors|had returned their loved ones to them,
{27450}{27573}that they had been blessed with a gift|that made them unwanted by the Wraith.
{27589}{27686}Others even told tales of how the taken|had somehow vanquished the Wraith,
{27701}{27766}but soon, the taken began to be feared.
{27770}{27794}Why?
{27797}{27853}They spoke of hearing voices.
{27856}{27913}Many began to behave strangely.
{27919}{28008}Some became violent, even murderous.
{28025}{28086}Well, it doesn't sound like|the Ancients were responsible for that.
{28088}{28112}No.
{28115}{28190}The villagers turned on the taken. It was a massacre.
{28191}{28228}All but a few were killed.
{28231}{28301}The rest were ostracized, sent away.
{28303}{28411}After that, no others that were taken|from that village ever returned again,
{28416}{28605}but those few who survived, they are the ones|who Charin believes passed on the gift.
{28608}{28692}- And one of the taken that survived was...|- My lineage.
{28715}{28778}I have the address to the planet where this happened.
{28784}{28826}Charin says the village is long gone.
{28828}{28937}All that is left are ruins,|but still, I wish to go there.
{28965}{28992}Now?
{28993}{29090}I believe this must be coming to light now for a reason.
{29095}{29160}Maybe we can find evidence of what really happened.
{29165}{29246}Look, Teyla, there are a lot|of things that we need to get done.
{29247}{29330}Maybe there is a way to fight|the Wraith that we have yet to discover.
{29335}{29539}Perhaps my ancestors were simply not enlightened|enough to recognize their gift for what it was.
{29584}{29649}Doesn't hurt to take a look around.
{29904}{29955}- Sir, there's nothing here.|- I know.
{29961}{30040}- Well, it's dark. Shouldn't we be getting back?|- Give her a minute.
{30066}{30084}Sir...
{30085}{30156}Ford, I need her to put|this behind her, get some sleep.
{30157}{30232}We all do so, whatever it takes.
{30323}{30353}Rodney?
{30360}{30392}I've got something here.
{30393}{30423}Really?
{30424}{30480}I don't know. I've got a little...
{30550}{30593}You've got a little what?
{30597}{30651}Hey, McKay, you've got a little what?
{30693}{30728}What?
{30795}{30840}Oh, it's okay when you guys make fun of me.
{30841}{30880}Rodney?
{30883}{30935}Picking up a faint energy signal.
{30943}{30989}It's getting stronger.
{30995}{31047}Coming from here.
{31062}{31100}There's nothing here.
{31101}{31177}Well, the magic ancient device hasn't lied yet.
{31180}{31209}It's solid.
{31210}{31247}Well, there's definitely something weird here.
{31248}{31283}Weird how?
{31312}{31360}- How about that?|- Teyla!
{31378}{31408}Teyla!
{31420}{31500}Maybe if you got a good running start.|You know, really slam into it.
{31670}{31708}How'd you do that?
{31713}{31775}I do not know. I was just looking for a way out.
{32050}{32098}Looks like the inside of a Wraith ship.
{32099}{32144}What the hell were they doing here?
{32526}{32551}Rodney.
{32554}{32583}Elizabeth.
{32587}{32638}Sheppard said you think you found a Wraith laboratory.
{32641}{32720}Certainly looks that way.|Some sort of hidden secret facility.
{32722}{32776}It's obviously been abandoned for a very long time.
{32778}{32911}I was able to pull this data recorder|from one of the computer consoles.
{32918}{32984}You think the Wraith were experimenting|on the people of that planet?
{32985}{33013}I have no idea.
{33014}{33075}- Hoping this thing will tell us.|- Why their need for secrecy?
{33076}{33167}The Wraith can take people at will|and do whatever they want with them.
{33212}{33249}Here we go.
{33305}{33330}There.
{33348}{33380}Now, that, uh...
{33412}{33455}that means absolutely nothing to me.
{33456}{33540}Last time I saw the contents of one of these,|it showed a galactic positioning system for ships.
{33541}{33605}It was more... pictures than symbols.
{33610}{33635}I wonder...
{33690}{33784}Just so you know, you didn't|actually finish that sentence out loud.
{33787}{33842}Well, this is obviously a language.
{33845}{33874}Wraith language?
{33877}{33920}That would make sense.
{33923}{33965}I'd love to have a good look through this.
{33966}{34000}Knock yourself out.
{34001}{34048}I have to get back to the control chair anyway.
{34190}{34264}Why do you think you could access|the doorway when no one else could?
{34264}{34286}I don't know.
{34290}{34355}Is it because only a Wraith|can enter a secret Wraith facility?
{34359}{34386}I'm not a Wraith.
{34389}{34485}Tell me... what does it feel like to be a Wraith?
{34491}{34547}I feel hunger.
{34817}{34874}Don't you remember what happened|last time I sat in one of those?
{34877}{34938}There's nowhere near enough power|in the thing to do anything.
{34939}{34987}Then why bother? Gentlemen, it's quite late.
{34988}{35050}We are trying to determine exactly how much power
{35051}{35105}is required to operate the systems|that are controlled by the chair.
{35106}{35160}And in order to do that, it needs to be on.
{35161}{35187}You have the gene now.
{35190}{35277}Yeah, but I can't be trying to analyze|the feedback data while I'm concentrating|on keeping the damn thing activated.
{35278}{35305}Why don't you analyze it?
{35306}{35350}Well, I could analyze it,|but Rodney doesn't think that...
{35352}{35381}Gentlemen, how's it coming?
{35385}{35411}Well, not good.
{35417}{35476}Well, I'm sorry.|This won't help. Carson, I need you.
{35477}{35502}Oh, thank god.
{35503}{35525}But we're using him.
{35530}{35580}- What is it? Is someone hurt?|- You were right.
{35581}{35615}Lovely. About what?
{35618}{35710}Your theory of the Wraith evolving after|the Ancients arrived in the Pegasus galaxy.
{35711}{35739}You've got to be kidding me.
{35740}{35766}Pay up.
{35767}{35790}How do you know?
{35791}{35841}The Wraith language is a derivative of ancient.
{35842}{35874}Well, that doesn't categorically mean...
{35876}{35910}Rodney, please.
{35923}{35974}That's not why I need to see you.
{35975}{36056}I've been able to translate the first part|of the log from the Wraith data device.
{36057}{36077}Really?
{36181}{36230}- All right, we'll try Dr. Kusanagi again.|- Kusanagi again.
{36231}{36280}- Now.|- Okay.|- Thank you.
{36511}{36553}Good morning.
{36582}{36624}You look like I fear.
{36676}{36726}Well, we've been up all night.
{36756}{36796}You wished to see me?
{36807}{36846}You'd better sit down.
{36847}{36887}What is it?
{36950}{37035}Well, I translated the first part|of the log you brought back, and...
{37051}{37103}are you sure you don't want to have a seat?
{37194}{37288}The Wraith were conducting|experiments on your ancestors.
{37290}{37385}It was just one Wraith, actually, and he was|doing it against the wishes of the other Wraith,
{37386}{37434}which is why he was doing it in secret.
{37437}{37477}What was he doing?
{37501}{37630}I think he was trying to make their|food source more compatible with their species.
{37631}{37656}I do not understand.
{37677}{37705}It was very easy to miss.
{37706}{37809}In fact, I couldn't even make the kind of comparison|necessary to isolate the specific strand.
{37820}{37874}We needed Wraith cells,|which we eventually got,
{37874}{37952}but then we needed a full mapping of|the genetic code contained within those cells,
{37953}{37986}which wasn't even 50% complete...
{37987}{38001}Please.
{38059}{38079}Tell me.
{38116}{38210}You have some Wraith DNA in your genetic makeup.
{38315}{38363}You're saying Teyla is part Wraith?
{38364}{38390}A very small part.
{38391}{38493}Which makes her about as different from us as|you, because of the ancient gene you possess.
{38494}{38531}Well, and some other things.
{38531}{38572}Still, Bates is going to go nuts over this.
{38573}{38604}Let's just keep this one under our hat.
{38605}{38688}Well, obviously Teyla is very concerned|about how everyone will react.
{38689}{38779}What, so you think this Wraith scientist was|trying to make humans what, more tasty?
{38785}{38902}The log seems to indicate that he was looking for a|way to make the feeding process more efficient.
{38903}{38996}I thought you already said they had a number|of genetic characteristics similar to humans.
{38996}{39097}They do, but they're still much closer to the bug|creature that attacked major Sheppard than to us.
{39098}{39161}Hey, I thought we weren't|going to mention that anymore.
{39162}{39188}Sorry.
{39188}{39323}Also interesting is the fact that the Wraith|language appears to be a derivative of ancient,
{39323}{39427}which seems to suggest that the Wraith|evolved after the Ancients arrived in Pegasus.
{39436}{39530}My theory is that the Ancients unwittingly|allowed humans to evolve on a planet
{39531}{39595}with the... insect species on it.
{39604}{39735}At some point, the insects fed on humans and|somehow incorporated our DNA into theirs.
{39736}{39793}The Wraith are an evolution of that combination.
{39793}{39885}So, what you're saying is the|Ancients actually created the Wraith?
{39885}{39900}By accident.
{39901}{39933}Or negligence.
{39938}{39980}Well, either way, it doesn't matter.
{39990}{40083}Ultimately, the more we know about Wraith physiology,|the closer we get to a biological weapon
{40084}{40145}that can attack the Wraith and leave humans unharmed.
{40145}{40277}Yes, but for the moment, all we know is that the|Ancients might have accidentally created the Wraith,
{40278}{40325}and why Teyla can sense them coming.
{40325}{40434}I mean, fabulous, mystery solved, but neither of|which that help, in any way, stop them from coming.
{40435}{40477}Rodney's right.
{40478}{40515}Let's get back to work.
{40535}{40559}Thank you.
{40641}{40677}I know that it is not my fault.
{40678}{40722}There's nothing I can do about it.
{40723}{40830}The fact is, I'm really no different now|than I was yesterday or last week.
{40831}{40873}But you feel different.
{40895}{40909}Yes.
{40972}{41077}I think the thing that I am most|worried about is how people will perceive me.
{41120}{41252}My father told people that it was a gift,|that I was special, but in a good way.
{41253}{41335}I could help my people by warning|them of the Wraith's approach.
{41336}{41498}He did it to protect me, but in many ways, I think|that it is why they first turned to me as a leader.
{41499}{41568}As you just said, you're no|different than you were yesterday.
{41568}{41660}Yes, but now they have reason to fear me.
{41772}{41850}All right, even with major Sheppard in|the chair, we weren't able to...
{41880}{41923}What is that?
{41998}{42043}Something you said made me wonder...
{42086}{42139}I thought we decided there|were more important things...
{42140}{42185}why did the Wraith scientist stop the experiments?
{42186}{42237}What would I have said that|would make you think that?
{42237}{42276}I don't remember.
{42276}{42325}Well, it's just... it's a good point.|I'm just wondering what I said that...
{42331}{42374}Sorry. What have you got?
{42375}{42439}Well, at first I thought it was|because the other Wraith caught him.
{42439}{42456}They didn't?
{42457}{42502}No, according to this, he stopped on his own.
{42503}{42582}See, now you've got me wondering why the rest|of the Wraith didn't want these experiments|taking place in the first place.
{42583}{42609}Exactly.
{42610}{42690}Especially since they were supposed to|be intended to improve things for everyone.
{42690}{42724}Yeah. That's what I'm saying.
{42724}{42743}I just said it.
{42743}{42761}Will you stop?
{42783}{42819}Okay, here's the most interesting part...
{42820}{42901}The Wraith communicate with each|other using some sort of telepathic network.
{42902}{42933}I noticed that.
{42950}{42967}Thankfully,
{42968}{43020}they can't seem to read the|minds of humans, though.
{43074}{43147}That's good, but what does this have|to do with the Wraith stopping the experiments?
{43147}{43236}Because, by combining even small|amounts of Wraith DNA with humans,
{43236}{43317}the scientist was giving the|humans Wraith mental abilities.
{43318}{43400}The subjects of his experiments were|able to hear the Wraith communications.
{43438}{43506}In the stories that Teyla told,|the voices that the people heard were...
{43506}{43557}were Wraith. Exactly.
{43558}{43595}It must have driven them mad.
{43595}{43704}The Wraith scientist couldn't find a|way around it, so eventually he gave up.
{43705}{43730}I don't understand.
{43731}{43780}I mean, why let them back in|the general population, then?
{43780}{43906}Well, it seems he thought that interbreeding|with normal humans might dilute the effect.
{43907}{43963}Before he realized he was wrong, it was too late.
{43963}{44091}When the other Wraith did find out what he had|done, they wiped out all the people on the planet...
{44144}{44247}but not before several of the test subjects had|already been ostracized and forced to leave.
{44247}{44293}Okay, so how does this help us?
{44294}{44369}Teyla may have more than just|the ability to sense the Wraith coming.
{44410}{44453}You're saying you think Teyla might be able to...
{44463}{44531}tap into this Wraith psychic network?
{44532}{44644}If she can, we'll be able to gather|all the intel we ever needed about them.
{44827}{44918}I have never been able to hear|the thoughts of the Wraith before.
{44919}{45019}According to the notes, all the test subjects|who were given the Wraith DNA, they had the ability.
{45019}{45083}It's possible it's because|you've never actually tried before.
{45083}{45183}You didn't know you could read Wraith|minds, and quite frankly, who would want to?
{45262}{45338}Look, Teyla, I would not even|consider asking you to do this
{45339}{45428}if I didn't think it could potentially|provide us with some vital information.
{45429}{45493}I just do not know what to do.
{45494}{45550}Well, Dr. Heightmeyer has a theory.
{45551}{45639}I think it's possible that, over time,|through several generations,
{45640}{45747}people with your ability have developed a mental|barrier to the thought projections of the Wraith.
{45748}{45804}Sort of a self-defense mechanism.
{45805}{45836}If we can get past that...
{45837}{45859}How?
{45860}{45922}We have a treatment process called hypnosis.
{45923}{45978}Dr. Heightmeyer can lead you through it,
{45979}{46080}and Dr. Beckett will remain on hand|at all times to monitor your physiology.
{46083}{46159}The Wraith are still very far away, are they not?
{46160}{46253}Yes, they are, and McKay, he does have|some doubts about the range of this telepathy.
{46254}{46324}But as you've said, you can sense the Wraith now.
{46324}{46437}If that's merely a bleed-through effect|into your consciousness of a greater latent ability,
{46438}{46497}then it may be worth trying to break the barrier.
{46498}{46643}To be perfectly honest, it's not something I would|ever recommend doing under any other circumstances.
{46644}{46757}But these are far from normal|circumstances that we're in, Teyla.
{46758}{46820}If I can somehow provide us with something...
{46821}{46886}their strategy, a weakness...
{46887}{46964}I see no other choice.
{47139}{47185}Okay, I think we're ready.
{47192}{47229}Are you?
{47249}{47312}Okay, I want you to breathe...
{47319}{47378}nice and deeply, and try to relax.
{47379}{47446}Dr. Beckett's going to administer a mild sedative.
{47447}{47524}Now, if this works, we should still be able|to communicate with each other.
{47525}{47632}Remember, we can wake you at any time,|using a very low-grade electrical current.
{47633}{47676}It won't hurt at all.
{47677}{47742}Just say, "out", and we'll end it.
{47767}{47843}Now, focus on this light as I speak.
{47863}{47987}You told me that the feeling that you get|from the Wraith is a cold, dark feeling deep inside you.
{47988}{48042}I want you to think about that.
{48044}{48107}Look for it in your mind.
{48108}{48175}Now, close your eyes and listen to it.
{48176}{48220}Don't resist.
{48229}{48295}Go to that place where it lives.
{48489}{48533}What do you hear?
{48595}{48640}Nothing.
{48688}{48751}You told me that your father was taken by the Wraith.
{48752}{48816}Do you remember sensing it that day?
{48822}{48847}Yes.
{48855}{48913}Think back to that feeling.
{48925}{48983}Now listen.
{49005}{49055}What do you hear?
{49073}{49109}Noise.
{49117}{49194}Voices, so many voices, whispering.
{49195}{49227}Listen closely.
{49228}{49298}Listen for one.
{49360}{49392}I can see.
{49392}{49420}Tell us what you see, Teyla.
{49421}{49473}I am on a ship.
{49511}{49538}I am walking.
{49539}{49579}She can actually see what's happening?
{49580}{49660}If the Wraith can project their thoughts,|then that may include what they're seeing.
{49661}{49716}There are other Wraith.
{49717}{49784}They do not notice me.
{49785}{49917}I am in a room full of people being preserved|so that they can be fed upon.
{50031}{50086}I am feeding.
{50086}{50130}I am killing him.
{50131}{50194}Stop. Beckett, stop.
{50215}{50251}It's okay.
{50251}{50312}It's okay. You're here, in Atlantis.
{50315}{50352}Teyla, I...
{50366}{50469}I had no right to ask you to do this.
{50500}{50523}Get these things off of me.
{50524}{50549}All right, settle down, Teyla.
{50550}{50587}I have to take this off.
{50587}{50621}I can't put her through this, John.
{50623}{50670}I know it was my idea, but it's too much to ask.
{50671}{50721}You might feel differently once the hive ships show up.
{50721}{50761}Dr. Weir.
{50765}{50800}Why did you make them stop?
{50801}{50827}Excuse me?
{50827}{50889}I was on one of the hive ships that is headed here.
{50890}{50926}I could hear them.
{50927}{50953}I could see.
{50953}{50979}It was working.
{50979}{51027}You were watching them feed.
{51028}{51065}Yes.
{51066}{51111}I actually felt one of them feed,
{51112}{51149}but I can handle it.
{51150}{51187}I can help us, I know it.
{51188}{51211}Teyla, I never should've...
{51212}{51320}I am going to try again.
{51529}{51601}I am walking through the ship.
{51691}{51777}I am in some sort of control room.
{52190}{52298}You are all so pathetic.
{52299}{52374}Something tells me that's not Teyla talking.
{52375}{52424}Nothing can stop us.
{52425}{52478}Wake her up.
{52526}{52565}You are all going to die.
{52565}{52598}Now!
{52847}{52910}What happened?
{52998}{53064}Dr. Beckett has her sedated,|and she's resting comfortably.
{53065}{53149}She seems fine, but I would like some time|to let what she's been through sink in.
{53149}{53185}She may still be in shock.
{53186}{53258}I have no idea what|the long-term psychological effect will be.
{53258}{53344}She said she could see some type|of control room... maybe a map, an attack plan.
{53345}{53395}She just needs to get a better look.
{53396}{53425}John, you were there.
{53426}{53526}A Wraith had control of her.
{53602}{53681}Incoming wormhole.
{53800}{53843}We're getting sergeant Bates' I.D.C.
{53843}{53865}It's the alpha site.
{53866}{53893}This is sergeant Bates.
{53894}{53942}Code red. We're under attack and coming in hot!
{53943}{54007}Lower the shield.
{54218}{54270}Move it, move it!
{54307}{54327}That's it, we're clear.
{54328}{54385}Raise the shield!
{54444}{54490}Is everybody okay?
{54497}{54560}All off-world personnel accounted for.
{54565}{54620}I guess that planet isn't safe anymore.
{54620}{54648}They showed up by ship,
{54649}{54710}and dropped some sort of device|by the Gate as we were leaving.
{54711}{54753}I've seen it before.
{54753}{54782}They're tagging the planet.
{54783}{54822}If we're going to evacuate Atlantis,|we're going to need a new place to go.
{54823}{54859}That planet was supposed to be uninhabited.
{54860}{54883}What did the Wraith want with it?
{54884}{54905}I don't know.
{54905}{54992}It's almost like they knew we were there.
{55100}{55180}I was close. I was so close.
{55181}{55231}I really think if I had another chance...
{55231}{55282}hey, you don't have to prove|anything to anyone around here.
{55282}{55331}I think this could make a difference.
{55331}{55364}I saw a hologram.
{55365}{55396}I think it was a map,
{55397}{55430}maybe even a battle plan.
{55431}{55467}We know their battle plan.
{55469}{55502}They're coming to wipe us out.
{55502}{55556}I'm not so sure that is true.
{55557}{55586}They want something from us.
{55587}{55632}Yeah. Yeah, they want to eat us.
{55633}{55673}No, something more.
{55674}{55716}They are desperate.
{55717}{55731}Really?
{55732}{55792}Yes, it is surprising.
{55793}{55927}They are confident in their dominance over us,|but mainly because there are so many of them...
{55928}{55985}too many to sustain for long.
{55986}{56099}They have all awakened early,|and there is not enough food to go around.
{56099}{56129}It was just a feeling.
{56130}{56209}The voices were so hard to separate.
{56210}{56261}You don't remember one of them speaking through you?
{56262}{56374}No, but I remember the feeling just before it happened.
{56374}{56388}Next time...
{56389}{56501}I don't think Dr. Weir will let there be a next time.
{56602}{56723}if what you're saying is true, then chances are|it was Teyla who gave away the location|of our alpha site to the Wraith.
{56724}{56751}I don't think there was time.
{56751}{56802}You don't know that they didn't|have a ship in the general area.
{56803}{56909}Look, I admit, in retrospect, asking Teyla|to connect with the Wraith, it may have been a mistake.
{56910}{56973}With all due respect,|I don't think there's much doubt about that.
{56974}{57003}Take it easy, sergeant.
{57004}{57080}It's not like she willfully gave away our position.
{57086}{57146}She wants to try again.
{57160}{57251}Look, she says she was getting close to something big,|something she's convinced we need to know.
{57252}{57277}No. I'm sorry.
{57277}{57350}The problem is, I'm not sure Teyla's thinking|about what's best for herself.
{57351}{57397}Or that she could compromise us further.
{57397}{57475}At this point, we have more to gain|from the Wraith than they do from us.
{57476}{57509}She wants to do it.
{57510}{57686}Fact is, there may not be anything we can do to stop her|from trying, so isn't it better if we're all there?
{57795}{57829}Okay.
{57838}{57973}Close your eyes and relax, and listen for the voices.
{58413}{58470}Teyla?
{58476}{58524}Break the connection.
{58525}{58544}It's not working.
{58545}{58566}No!
{58568}{58606}Teyla!
{59541}{59610}I can only hope we haven't|caused her psychological damage.
{59610}{59652}Teyla's one of the strongest people I know.
{59653}{59759}The fact that she's been able to hold it together|until now after what she's been through in her life...
{59760}{59787}now, there you are.
{59788}{59837}Major, Dr. Weir.
{59844}{59882}Carson, how are you feeling?
{59883}{59943}Doozy of a headache, but I'll be fine.
{59944}{59963}Teyla's awake.
{59964}{60062}She wants to see both of you.
{60158}{60208}Teyla, are you thirsty? Can I get you some water?
{60209}{60226}No.
{60255}{60300}I am so sorry.
{60301}{60331}I really thought I could prevent...
{60332}{60389}it's all right. Everyone's fine.
{60389}{60472}We are concerned that the Wraith|can connect to you at will, though.
{60473}{60525}It has never happened before?
{60526}{60639}No, I am sure I have to connect with them first.
{60642}{60695}I saw their plans,
{60700}{60755}the route their ships are taking to get here.
{60756}{60782}That's good.
{60782}{60811}There's more.
{60812}{60880}They do not just want Atlantis.
{60889}{60934}They know about you.
{60935}{60961}What do you mean?
{60962}{60999}Sumner.
{61008}{61059}The female Wraith wasn't just feeding on him.
{61060}{61098}She was interrogating him.
{61098}{61161}That is why they're all waking up.
{61162}{61218}That is why they are coming here.
{61219}{61361}They know that Atlantis is the only way to get|to a new, rich feeding ground.
{61392}{61457}Earth.
