{151}{187}Are you all right, Colonel?
{199}{243}It's nothing. Just a cold.|No big deal.
{244}{273}It's just annoying.
{282}{312}Talk about annoying.
{313}{324}{Y:i}What?
{328}{380}We should be focusing on harvesting space Gates.
{381}{422}That's what we're doing, Rodney,
{423}{474}but the MALP detected life signs.
{475}{504}We have to check it out.
{508}{535}That's the protocol.
{536}{639}I'm just saying that identifying potential|space Gates to complete the intergalactic bridge
{640}{738}should be our priority, not making contact|with the locals of some backwater hamlet.
{739}{790}Are you that eager to return to Earth, Rodney?
{791}{813}This isn't just about me.
{814}{901}It is about the ability to go back and forth|between Earth and Atlantis conveniently...
{904}{935}and whenever I want to.
{936}{991}- How's that work again?|- Okay...
{997}{1087}once we've seeded enough Stargates across|the void between Pegasus and the Milky Way,
{1088}{1153}we'll be able to take a Jumper from|one to the other to the other,
{1154}{1185}till we reach the other side.
{1186}{1227}{Y:i}That way, we won't tax the ZPM,
{1228}{1268}we won't be reliant on the Daedalus,
{1269}{1380}and travel time between Earth and Atlantis|will be cut from three weeks to 30 minutes.
{1398}{1445}- Very clever.|{Y:i}- Yes.
{1450}{1494}It was Samantha Carter's idea.
{1499}{1566}Backwater hamlet dead ahead.
{1895}{1978}Okay, let's just make contact,|buy our souvenirs, and...
{1979}{2018}get out of here.
{2042}{2079}Fair day to you.
{2084}{2127}{Y:i}Fair day to you.
{2160}{2191}Nothing here.
{2196}{2275}- We should probably go.|- Yeah, probably wouldn't hurt to
{2280}{2329}make contact with the locals, though.
{2332}{2390}- No, no, when you're right, you're right.|- No, we're here now...
{2392}{2415}{Y:i}Hello!
{2416}{2445}Hello, new people!
{2448}{2512}Why didn't anybody tell me|the new people were here yet?
{2513}{2550}- Lucius, I've missed you.|- Oh, please.
{2551}{2625}Well, I was just out for a walk.|Have you met the new people yet?
{2634}{2658}We just got here.
{2659}{2687}Oh, great. Great.
{2689}{2733}Then I haven't missed anything.|I hate missing things.
{2734}{2804}Have you met my wife, Willa?|Isn't she gorgeous?
{2819}{2872}My other wives are just making lunch.
{2874}{2920}- Fair day, Lucius.|- Hello, sweetheart.
{2925}{2953}I love ya. I love ya.
{2954}{3013}- Fair day, everybody.|{Y:i}- Fair day Lucius. Fair day.
{3019}{3065}I'm John Sheppard.
{3066}{3095}Rodney McKay.
{3103}{3125}Ronon Dex.
{3126}{3159}Teyla Emmagan.
{3178}{3200}Teyla...
{3231}{3262}and you are from...
{3278}{3329}- Athos.|{Y:i}- Athos...
{3330}{3373}{Y:i}Yeah, Athos.|I've never been there.
{3375}{3396}It sounds nice.
{3405}{3424}Is it nice?
{3432}{3479}Until it was culled by the Wraith.
{3480}{3515}Oh, I hate them.
{3538}{3626}What do you say you and me get together,|we have some lunch, we talk about this...
{3632}{3662}Maybe have some wine?
{3669}{3708}We don't even know your name.
{3922}{3953}We're serious.
{3973}{4045}You mean you truly have|not heard of Lucius?
{4056}{4096}{Y:i}Well, everyone knows...
{4109}{4175}he's the wisest and kindest man among the stars.
{4176}{4227}Oh people just say that.
{4228}{4301}I mean, you can't prove it till you've|met everybody, am I right?
{4319}{4348}Well, then...
{4356}{4382}Lucius...
{4395}{4434}we're glad we met you.
{4435}{4469}And if you aren't yet,
{4470}{4495}you will be.
{4496}{4514}Come on,
{4515}{4550}let's have some lunch...
{4551}{4611}Everybody has to eat, right come one.|Right this way, please.
{4612}{4652}Please.|After you.
{4653}{4670}Please.
{4705}{4727}{Y:i}Fair day.
{4735}{4767}{Y:i}Fair day, Lucius.
{4783}{4832}Fair day.|Fair day.
{4987}{5018}Here I come!

{6612}{6647}{Y:i}I love architecture.
{6648}{6700}{Y:i}It's all a mystery to me, really, but...
{6710}{6751}it hasn't stopped me from trying.
{6752}{6774}I see.
{6795}{6823}Is she taken yet?
{6824}{6851}{Y:i}No...
{6853}{6914}nor does he, nor anyone else, speak for me.
{6916}{6944}Oh, yeah.
{6955}{7007}Yeah, you are definitely wife material.
{7008}{7071}I love a woman with spirit...
{7081}{7114}and a great body.
{7123}{7155}Excuse me, Lucius,
{7173}{7224}please pardon my ignorance,|possibly even my manners, but
{7225}{7274}- what is it exactly about you...|{Y:i}- I know what you're going to say.
{7275}{7317}So you don't even have to ask.
{7343}{7379}I have gifts.
{7443}{7490}What are those...
{7515}{7544}gifts?
{7560}{7595}Exploration,
{7603}{7642}alchemy, medicine.
{7654}{7735}I have, I have to say,|some of the best ointments around.
{7779}{7815}See, I could take care of that, just...
{7819}{7864}- just like that.|- It's just a cold.
{7865}{7888}Nevertheless,
{7889}{7961}I have a potion that could get rid|of that in six or seven days.
{7975}{8006}That's impressive.
{8014}{8045}You get used to it.
{8047}{8067}We'll do a trade.
{8070}{8096}So...
{8100}{8125}where are you all from?
{8127}{8190}No place in particular. We move around a lot.
{8191}{8270}In that wonderful machine of yours.|Yeah, I saw it. I was on a walk, I look up...
{8275}{8366}and I heard and somebody said that|you flew through the ancestral ring?
{8371}{8403}Yeah, that was us.
{8410}{8438}How does it fly?
{8446}{8533}- It's complicated. One has to...|- I mean, where do you get a machine like that?
{8534}{8629}I mean, it's a wonderful way to travel.|Can I get one? Are they hard to fly?
{8630}{8692}Yes... they are hard to fly, and
{8695}{8739}no, you can't have one.
{8782}{8818}But I want one.
{8831}{8855}{Y:i}Please.
{8881}{8905}Sorry.
{8929}{8999}Or perhaps a trade for some of|his wonderful medicines?
{9000}{9034}Or perhaps not.
{9035}{9102}What, you come all this way,|you don't even want to do a trade?
{9104}{9173}Look, it doesn't have to be the ship.|Forget the ship. I don't even want the ship, okay?
{9174}{9238}You've got to have some other stuff|that you want to trade, right? Okay like...
{9240}{9288}how do you get your hair to go like that?
{9412}{9438}Lunch was great,
{9446}{9521}- but I just realized we're running late.|- For what?
{9524}{9574}For that important thing.
{9578}{9652}Yes, as much as we would love to stay,|we really must go.
{9653}{9707}No, no, no. I don't want you to go.|You just got here. Come on, come on.
{9708}{9747}We haven't even had the second course.
{9748}{9800}Please! I want you to see some of my medicines.
{9801}{9871}Go get the ointments, the good ones.|Go. Run. Go.
{9872}{9918}Another time, Lucius.|We've got to go.
{9921}{9976}No... no, I don't want you to leave.
{10039}{10069}{Y:i}Okay, okay, okay.
{10093}{10109}All right.
{10126}{10152}Let them go.
{10176}{10218}We're all friends here, right?
{10301}{10358}Tell you what...|soon as we get back,
{10376}{10444}we'll tell our medical people to come|see what you have to offer. Then
{10448}{10479}{Y:i}we'll talk about trade.
{10480}{10499}Later today, maybe?
{10500}{10551}- Maybe.|- I'll have everything ready.
{10552}{10610}{Y:i}- Thank you.</i>|- You won't be disappointed!
{10686}{10720}Nice people.
{10791}{10875}{Y:i}- I think the word we're looking for is...|- Obnoxious? Unctuous?
{10876}{10906}Either one of those works.
{10907}{10993}Then again, the townspeople seem to love him,|so maybe there's something to his medicine.
{10994}{11082}Sounds like a snake oil salesman to me, but|it might be worth having Beckett check it out.
{11083}{11150}Well, I'm sure Carson will be able|to get us an answer pretty quickly.
{11153}{11218}- So it's back out to scout for Gates?|- Yes. Right away.
{11219}{11259}It's not a race, Rodney.
{11322}{11384}{Y:i}Some of the herbs were gathered|from this planet on my walks,
{11385}{11474}but most were collected from my many|excursions to other worlds.
{11480}{11514}I have to confess,
{11524}{11632}I have concocted remedies for almost|every known ailment.
{11633}{11665}Every single one?
{11667}{11700}Well, every one in town.
{11723}{11758}The sick have been cured.
{11767}{11818}The lame can walk again.
{11819}{11870}Well, some still crawl,
{11871}{11938}but they crawl a lot faster than they used to.
{11947}{12001}- I see.|- Nothing pleases me more
{12013}{12082}than when someone comes up to me,|they say, "thank you, Lucius.
{12083}{12119}You have cured me.
{12130}{12195}You are a wise and kind man".
{12212}{12249}Young, old...
{12267}{12292}women...
{12336}{12389}Do you like women, Dr. Beckett?
{12405}{12455}What?|Yes, of course.
{12456}{12492}Yeah, I have a potion
{12500}{12595}that will have them lined up around|the square just waiting to be with you.
{12596}{12645}You know what I mean when|I say "be with you", right?
{12646}{12725}- I think so, yes.|- I will trade you that potion
{12730}{12812}for what you are holding in your bag right now.
{12836}{12869}My medical kit?
{12922}{12969}I thought you cured every known ailment.
{12970}{13041}Every known ailment in town.|I added that, remember?
{13087}{13160}Well, it is tempting, but I'm afraid
{13161}{13218}I couldn't do that, Lucius. Sorry.
{13228}{13262}Not yet, anyway...
{13268}{13311}Come on. You must be starving.
{13312}{13361}I have a great meal lined up for us.
{13468}{13504}How did the scout go?
{13547}{13568}Well...
{13570}{13652}we found an unused Gate|in orbit over M3R-428.
{13653}{13726}One lousy Gate. We're never|gonna meet our quota at this rate.
{13727}{13770}- What quota?|- My quota.
{13796}{13899}Daedalus is still under repair anyway, Rodney.|We won't be able to harvest Gates till it can fly.
{13909}{13979}Did Beckett bring back anything worth anything?
{13980}{14016}No, he hasn't returned yet.
{14028}{14091}He radioed in earlier,|said he'd like to stay a little longer.
{14092}{14145}Apparently he's found something of interest.
{14169}{14239}The baby was frozen solid.
{14249}{14280}Like a statue.
{14298}{14348}Like a frozen statue.
{14370}{14472}It must have been in the water for,|I don't know, what seemed like an eternity.
{14473}{14511}I didn't know what to do.
{14512}{14557}I was a kid myself.
{14581}{14613}I take the baby,
{14617}{14656}and I open my coat, and I
{14657}{14709}tuck the baby inside,
{14718}{14781}and I start stroking the baby's back,
{14803}{14828}gently.
{14862}{14909}Now, I don't know
{14918}{14980}whether it was|the warmth of my body
{14982}{15048}or the steady, insistent rhythm
{15050}{15101}of my own life force
{15112}{15222}urging this tiny baby's heart to begin beating again,
{15252}{15305}but beat it did...
{15322}{15373}{Y:i}and a cry arose,
{15388}{15446}piercing the cold night air,
{15465}{15506}as if to say...
{15539}{15565}I...
{15566}{15597}am...
{15602}{15658}alive.
{15780}{15810}Astonishing.
{15814}{15839}{Y:i}And that baby...
{15860}{15897}that baby...
{15905}{15950}grew up to be...
{15981}{16038}That beautiful young lady.
{16061}{16142}No, no, not her, not her.|Behind her.
{16185}{16248}Maybe a little brain damage, but just a little,
{16249}{16287}but the story is true.
{16288}{16414}- And thank you for sharing it with me.|- Oh, please, Dr. Beckett.
{16424}{16469}That's what I like doing most...
{16477}{16503}to share.
{16553}{16583}To share me.
{16615}{16656}- And I can see that now.|- You see?
{16657}{16708}All you had to do was get to know me.
{16711}{16737}You know, Carson...
{16741}{16793}- may I call you Carson?|- Of course you can.
{16794}{16859}Carson, this City that you keep|going on and on about...
{16860}{16897}- Atlantis.|- Yeah, Atlantis.
{16899}{16971}On a scale of one to 10,|this village being a three...
{16972}{17051}- Oh, Atlantis is definitely a 10.|- It is... oh, yeah.
{17052}{17109}And those flying ships, you still have those?
{17110}{17168}You mean the Jumpers?|Oh, aye, we have several.
{17173}{17195}How interesting.
{17204}{17230}Tell me more.
{17239}{17322}Look, Lucius, I think I could do much better than that.
{17360}{17396}{Y:i}Incoming wormhole.
{17397}{17434}{Y:i}Opening the shield.
{17452}{17483}Dr. Beckett's IDC.
{17484}{17514}It's about time.
{17603}{17615}Carson.
{17802}{17827}Oh, my.
{17828}{17892}When you said this place was a ten,|I thought, "okay, maybe...
{17893}{17947}maybe it's an eight and a half,"
{17948}{17980}but this...
{17983}{18004}Carson?
{18013}{18037}Dr. Weir...
{18038}{18134}permit me to introduce Lucius Luvin.
{18163}{18200}Speaking of stunning...
{18220}{18271}you never told me anything about her.
{18292}{18322}Oh, yeah.
{18358}{18434}Yeah, I am definitely gonna like it here.
{18523}{18590}{Y:i}I can't believe you brought him here|without permission.
{18591}{18626}{Y:i}I didn't think you'd mind.
{18627}{18661}You didn't think I'd mind?
{18669}{18749}You know the protocols.|You even helped come up with them.
{18758}{18801}There's so much he can offer us.
{18802}{18869}Is this the same guy who said|he could cure my cold in a week?
{18870}{18913}{Y:i}I know my business, Colonel Sheppard.
{18914}{19001}He happens to have created several medicines|that are quite remarkable.
{19008}{19026}{Y:i}Really?
{19027}{19051}That guy?
{19052}{19072}Aye.
{19081}{19169}He also possesses many valuable herbs|and spices and gourds.
{19172}{19250}- Did you just say gourds?|- Yes, Rodney. Gourds.
{19252}{19316}We don't know everything, despite what you may think.
{19335}{19416}He could prove to be a very powerful ally.
{19421}{19481}He's a very wise and kind man.
{19526}{19574}Are you feeling all right?
{19579}{19603}What do you mean?
{19619}{19658}It's just you're acting...
{19659}{19679}a little...
{19680}{19707}Smitten?
{19708}{19753}I had another word in mind.
{19761}{19814}This is not something to treat lightly.
{19815}{19841}No, it isn't.
{19842}{19938}You've brought a stranger to Atlantis without|prior approval. Now he knows about the City,
{19939}{19977}as well as our Gate address.
{19978}{20041}Lucius would do nothing to harm us.
{20042}{20080}He comes in peace,
{20081}{20119}as our friend.
{20127}{20188}You have his word and mine on that.
{20286}{20357}- Do you think he poses a threat?|- Definitely a nuisance.
{20358}{20435}If what Beckett says is correct,|these medicines could be of value to us.
{20436}{20506}We'll just keep an eye on him.|McKay and I are heading out to scout more Gates.
{20507}{20599}Tell Teyla and Ronon not to let him out of their sight.
{20707}{20727}Here we are.
{20860}{20895}It's perfect.
{20955}{21024}Because you could always have my|own personal quarters if you wanted.
{21025}{21073}Oh, no, no.
{21074}{21124}Don't be silly, Carson. I mean,
{21125}{21200}you know, I'll take a look at what you have|if you insist, but...
{21210}{21256}this'll do fine for now.
{21257}{21300}Oh, good. I'm so pleased.
{21301}{21352}Just let me know if you want anything.
{21353}{21442}Oh, I can't think of anything I want more|than just being here.
{21474}{21508}Except that...
{21569}{21592}What?
{21608}{21664}- No, it's nothing.|- No, tell me.
{21673}{21768}I get the feeling that your friends|don't like having me around.
{21784}{21888}- Lucius just give them a chance to get to know you.|- I just hope I get that chance.
{21889}{21928}Oh, you will, I promise.
{21929}{22043}In fact, I'm sure Dr. Weir will want to negotiate|an alliance between your people and ours.
{22046}{22084}- Really?|- Really.
{22090}{22130}Oh, that'd be great.
{22247}{22269}Oh, hello.
{22270}{22353}I was going to go get something to eat, because|they forgot to bring me something, so...
{22359}{22387}are you guys not allowed to talk?
{22388}{22455}Guests are not permitted to move|about the City unescorted.
{22456}{22508}Well, what do you say you escort me then?
{22518}{22550}You don't like me yet, do you?
{22551}{22581}- Yet?|- I'm sorry.
{22583}{22682}My manners just fail when I am in the presence|of a beautiful woman.
{22683}{22720}Isn't she something?
{22721}{22741}Yeah.
{22742}{22804}- We will have something sent to you.|- Oh, no, no. Come on. Come on.
{22805}{22877}- Don't make me sit in there all alone. Come on, please?|- Very well. We will both take you.
{22878}{22963}Oh, both. Both is good.|Yeah, we'll get to know each other then, okay.
{22964}{23015}Like how do you get your hair to go like that?
{23048}{23107}Just listen to what he has to say.
{23122}{23161}Thank you.|Fine.
{23167}{23253}I must say, I'm starting to get concerned about|your interest in this man. It seems...
{23262}{23293}excessive.
{23294}{23383}And I find it puzzling why you've chosen|to greet Lucius with such hostility.
{23384}{23433}Perhaps it's because you broke protocol,
{23434}{23484}- endangering...|- and for that I am sorry,
{23485}{23545}but can we please move on past that one mistake
{23546}{23629}and not further alienate a potential ally?
{23669}{23697}Fine.
{23715}{23762}Have him come up to my office.
{23838}{23880}Hello, Dr. Weir.
{23995}{24043}Hello, Dr. Weir.
{24046}{24068}Yeah.
{24569}{24599}Hello, Dr. Weir.
{24603}{24646}Thank you for granting me this audience.
{24647}{24710}- It's hardly that, Mr. Luvin.|- No, please.
{24728}{24755}Lucius.
{24816}{24933}May this be the first of many gifts|that our people exchange.
{24964}{24989}Thank you.
{24996}{25030}I made it myself.
{25043}{25110}The gourd is from the marshes of my homeworld,
{25111}{25231}topped with a candle that's made|from the congealed tallow of an animal
{25232}{25301}that I killed with my bare hands.
{25378}{25410}How nice.
{25411}{25437}It's nothing.
{25451}{25495}Please, have a seat.
{25496}{25518}{Y:i}After you.
{25727}{25764}What are you doing?
{25842}{25950}I've been told that you would like to negotiate|a possible alliance between our two peoples.
{25951}{25987}An alliance?
{25993}{26016}Okay.
{26024}{26045}Sure.
{26046}{26103}I mean, that's why I'm here, is to talk about that.
{26113}{26137}Well, then...
{26151}{26239}why don't you start|by telling me what you have to offer us.
{26309}{26369}Besides candles.
{26407}{26428}Right.
{26455}{26528}{Y:i}One tiny settlement on the entire planet.
{26529}{26590}{Y:i}Look, all we'd have to do is relocate them.
{26591}{26679}We're not evacuating an entire planet|so we can take their Gate.
{26695}{26716}Hey.
{26723}{26748}Welcome back.
{26762}{26789}Where's Zelenka?
{26817}{26849}Well, he's not here.
{26874}{26908}No, no one's here.
{26934}{26971}Where is everyone?
{27029}{27074}{Y:i}I'm standing outside. I don't know what to do.
{27085}{27145}{Y:i}I ran. I ran!
{27146}{27228}{Y:i}I ran and I'm the guy who's holding the weapon, okay?
{27229}{27302}So here's what I do, okay. Here's what I do.|Okay, I'm standing there,
{27303}{27332}and I'm running,
{27333}{27373}and I see the beast, just coming towards me,
{27374}{27418}so I just stepped to my left, I turn around,
{27419}{27459}and just as he's coming to me,
{27466}{27494}I take my sword,
{27497}{27521}I draw it,
{27522}{27564}{Y:i}and I lop off its head.
{27565}{27621}{Y:i}Yeah, and I bend over,|I pick it up,
{27622}{27666}and I walk in triumph...
{27676}{27705}back to the village.
{27706}{27742}- Amazing.|- You didn't.
{27743}{27797}Oh, yes, my dear, oh my giant friend,
{27798}{27854}{Y:i}I did, and let me tell you this...
{27856}{27954}I had no trouble finding female|companionship that night,
{27955}{27988}if you know what I mean.
{27989}{28039}"He's such a dandy!"
{28067}{28101}Repeatedly.
{28154}{28181}{Y:i}Yeah.
{28196}{28221}{Y:i}Yeah.
{28495}{28548}{Y:i}What the hell is going on here?
{28572}{28600}What do you mean?
{28615}{28646}What do I mean?
{28647}{28694}We leave for a few hours,
{28695}{28763}and Lucius turns you all into stepford wives.
{28764}{28803}What did he do to you?
{28805}{28842}Absolutely nothing.
{28853}{28903}Carson was right about him.
{28904}{28931}I agree.
{28940}{28984}He has much to offer us.
{28985}{29042}- Herbs and gourds?|{Y:i}- Please,
{29044}{29108}the medicines alone are worth whatever he asks.
{29109}{29160}You're really telling me|the ointment is worth something?
{29161}{29225}- I haven't actually tested it.|- Oh, you're just taking his word for it?
{29226}{29260}You got a problem with that?
{29266}{29283}Me?
{29284}{29306}No.
{29307}{29330}He might.
{29344}{29364}{Y:i}Teyla...
{29376}{29459}this is the man who asked you to be his seventh wife.
{29470}{29497}I know.
{29520}{29553}I hope I didn't upset him.
{29554}{29618}You just haven't taken the time to get to know Lucius.
{29619}{29647}Carson is right.
{29648}{29676}Again.
{29681}{29742}{Y:i}Look, I think he could be a great asset to us.
{29743}{29807}He has traveled extensively throughout this galaxy,
{29808}{29883}and gathered a tremendous amount of intelligence.
{29884}{29951}Has he shared any of this intelligence?
{29952}{29989}Not yet, but...
{30009}{30048}he did give me this.
{30138}{30205}A very wise and kind man.
{30255}{30291}This is creeping me out.
{30292}{30363}Yeah, reminds me of an old Batman episode, actually.
{30367}{30476}This Catwoman used a drug to put a spell on Batman,|make him fall in love with her.
{30477}{30544}Ended up doing all sorts of evil things for her.
{30567}{30604}Kind of a turn-on, actually.
{30605}{30675}- Julie Newmar in the cat outfit...|- Eartha Kitt was Catwoman.
{30676}{30706}- Not till season three.|- Really?
{30707}{30740}Yeah. You didn't know that?
{30813}{30902}Oh, so anyway, I did a little investigating,
{30906}{30928}and...
{30943}{30994}{Y:i}surveillance footage from his quarters.
{31164}{31189}{Y:i}What's this?
{31207}{31265}I took the liberty of searching his room.
{31286}{31340}There's some residue from the liquid still in the vial.
{31341}{31384}It'll take some time to break it down.
{31398}{31513}- I could have used Carson's help on this, but...|- He's off picking daffodils for his new friend.
{31514}{31530}Right.
{31616}{31650}That's brilliant.
{31658}{31713}This is actually how we found your planet.
{31714}{31787}So you just fly to a planet,|you take the Gate, you fly away.
{31788}{31875}Well, we try to take Stargates|that are in fixed orbit around a planet,
{31876}{31935}and then only if the planet is uninhabited.
{31936}{32031}Obviously, it wouldn't be right to take a Gate|from a world that depended on it for trade.
{32047}{32070}Wait a minute.
{32091}{32134}I think I've heard of this planet.
{32139}{32164}You have?
{32170}{32197}Yeah, I have.
{32198}{32295}And I heard that this planet is|completely uninhabited. It's what I heard.
{32299}{32392}I don't know about you guys,|but I've got a good feeling about this planet.
{32396}{32479}Well, then we could retrofit|the Gate for space deployment.
{32515}{32574}Beautiful and brilliant.
{32600}{32648}The two Bs.
{32660}{32691}Dr. Weir.
{32692}{32793}Oh, hi, John. We were just|discussing the Gate harvesting program.
{32794}{32822}Yeah, I heard.
{32823}{32923}And Lucius knows of an excellent|planet we should investigate.
{32924}{32962}I heard that, too.
{32972}{33105}We got intel that the Wraith recently set up|a major outpost there. An alliance of three hives.
{33107}{33131}No.
{33137}{33196}- Really?|- Has your intel been verified?
{33197}{33316}We haven't put boots on the ground, no,|but our contacts are trustworthy.
{33327}{33424}I'm not going to send a team down there,|not when there's still plenty of Gates to scout.
{33438}{33529}John, you are way behind Rodney's quota.
{33530}{33589}Forget Rodney's quota.
{33590}{33668}I am not sending a team into harm's way.
{33669}{33703}You know what?
{33704}{33730}Colonel Sheppard is right.
{33736}{33763}{Y:i}Don't get me wrong...
{33764}{33846}with all your advanced weapons,|you could easily dispose of a tiny wraith outpost,
{33847}{33893}if there even is an outpost,
{33894}{33928}{Y:i}but ultimately,
{33932}{33979}is it worth the risk?
{33980}{34045}No matter how small that risk may be.|I mean, sure,
{34046}{34122}- people may label you a coward...|- Will you knock it off?
{34124}{34152}Colonel.
{34175}{34217}I think it's worth investigating.
{34218}{34243}No.
{34249}{34283}I won't allow it.
{34287}{34315}John...
{34316}{34365}are you questioning my authority?
{34366}{34429}When it comes to the security of this base,
{34430}{34476}you're damn right I am.
{34487}{34519}From now on,
{34520}{34576}no one goes through that Gate
{34578}{34642}without my authorization.
{34760}{34826}What a terrible cold he must have.
{34832}{34901}This is not like him, Lucius.
{34917}{34959}I apologize.
{34974}{35030}He makes me uncomfortable.
{35051}{35142}- He's really a good man.|- I don't see it.
{35197}{35284}If he doesn't come around,|you're gonna have to do something.
{35500}{35526}Elizabeth
{35527}{35561}wants to send a team
{35562}{35633}to check out a Gate|at a suspected Wraith outpost.
{35634}{35682}- What is she, nuts?|- Everybody's nuts, Rodney.
{35683}{35727}- Haven't you noticed?|- Right.
{35730}{35777}You need to figure out why|without drawing too much attention.
{35778}{35859}I am working on it, but there's not enough|of the liquid to work with. I need more.
{35860}{35946}I'll go back to Lucius's village.|I'm sure he keeps a stash there. I'll just grab some.
{35947}{35979}You're leaving me here alone?
{35980}{36060}- You said you need the liquid.|- Yeah, but the place is turning into a nuthouse.
{36061}{36121}Somebody's got to stay.|Just keep away from the nuts.
{36122}{36230}And you've got to disable the DHD as soon a|I'm gone to prevent anybody from dialing out, okay?
{36620}{36641}Willa.
{36679}{36702}Sheppard.
{36710}{36735}Sheppard!
{36780}{36808}Are you all right?
{36809}{36839}Where is he?
{36845}{36869}Lucius?
{36870}{36903}Did you take him?
{36904}{36959}Of course, if you did, we're not angry.
{36960}{37015}He came to my planet on his own.
{37016}{37051}Please send him back.
{37052}{37118}It hurts us to be away from him for so long.
{37129}{37200}Have you always felt this way about him?
{37201}{37227}No,
{37228}{37257}but one day,
{37258}{37338}as he returned from trading|his wares with a distant people,
{37339}{37371}{Y:i}he told me a story,
{37372}{37433}a wonderful, wise, sweet story
{37434}{37495}about something he accidentally stepped in.
{37496}{37534}{Y:i}And from that day forward,
{37535}{37609}we saw him for the wonderful man he truly is.
{37610}{37662}And before that?
{37668}{37765}I am ashamed to admit that|I refused to share his bed more than once,
{37788}{37856}and since he has gone, everyone is growing sick.
{37857}{37921}- It has only gotten worse.|- Take it easy.
{37938}{37986}Have you ever seen him drink a...
{37996}{38057}a liquid from a small vial?
{38058}{38109}- His daily medicine.|- Does he need more?
{38110}{38142}I could bring it to him.
{38143}{38168}We both can.
{38169}{38196}I can handle it.
{38197}{38236}If we get you some...
{38249}{38287}will you bring him home?
{38288}{38320}Sure.
{38412}{38448}{Y:i}Incoming wormhole.
{38449}{38486}{Y:i}Colonel Sheppard's IDC.
{38845}{38931}And the next day she became my wife,
{38932}{39016}my fifth wife, and now I have six.
{39017}{39075}You are a scoundrel, you know that's what you are.
{39080}{39121}{Y:i}Sheppard, come here.|You've got to hear this.
{39122}{39170}Lucius was just telling the most hysterical story.
{39171}{39214}Do you know that they have marmots on his planet?
{39215}{39294}Well, they're not marmots, exactly,|but it's a rodent very similar to...
{39295}{39340}I thought you said|you were gonna stay away from the nuts.
{39341}{39426}Yes, well, I tried to keep to myself, but Lucius here
{39427}{39483}was concerned for me, so he just came down,
{39484}{39518}{Y:i}Ronon held me against the wall,
{39519}{39564}and Lucius and I had a nice, long talk.
{39565}{39591}Oh, you did.
{39592}{39621}And let me tell you,
{39622}{39663}we have nothing to worry about with this guy.
{39664}{39732}This guy's just a big knucklehead.|Aren't you, you big knucklehead?
{39779}{39810}Where's Elizabeth?
{39813}{39863}She's out making me something to eat.
{39865}{39926}- What?|- I don't know. She said it was a surprise.
{39927}{40036}So Rodney and I were waiting here for|the team to return. We thought that you were them.
{40037}{40064}Teyla, Ronon, and Beckett.
{40065}{40112}They volunteered to check out M6H-491.
{40113}{40196}- I told you...|- To disable the DHD. I know. I'm sorry. I didn't.
{40197}{40222}But come on.
{40223}{40295}- Ronon and Teyla. I mean, they can handle themselves.|- What about Beckett?
{40296}{40348}Well, he... now,|he can walk on his hands. Did you know that?
{40349}{40392}He was showing Lucius before he left.
{40393}{40436}You should have seen it. He was down on his hands...
{40452}{40476}McKay!
{40568}{40643}We don't know for sure that|there are even Wraith on the planet.
{40649}{40688}We'll find out soon enough, though, won't we?
{40689}{40725}We sure will.
{40885}{40948}{Y:i}Atlantis, this is Beckett! We're coming in hot!
{41272}{41335}- You all right?|- It was a little rough, but we're good.
{41336}{41375}It was all terribly exciting.
{41376}{41475}Well, I guess we can assume|there are Wraith on that planet.
{41476}{41524}Yes. Many.
{41527}{41570}{Y:i}Now, don't overreact, John.
{41574}{41607}Are you kidding me?
{41608}{41684}You send a team led by Beckett
{41685}{41765}to a planet full of Wraith.|How do you expect me to react?
{41766}{41839}- Well, firstly, they volunteered.|- And secondly...
{41840}{41882}we got the herb.
{41938}{41963}Carson,
{41964}{42029}I will tell people of the tale of your bravery
{42030}{42084}for many years to come.
{42094}{42111}You will?
{42112}{42142}Yes, I will.
{42195}{42272}- You sent them to get an herb?|- We wanted to go.
{42273}{42300}Okay.
{42314}{42360}I've just about had enough.
{42406}{42442}Don't touch it.
{42582}{42636}What on Earth is wrong with you, John?
{42658}{42716}We were just helping a friend...
{42736}{42788}and there's nothing wrong with that.
{42820}{42890}I think there's something wrong with him.
{42992}{43020}You know what?
{43045}{43123}I'm just tired. It's this damn cold.
{43170}{43206}I apologize.
{43246}{43288}Maybe you should get some rest.
{43289}{43348}You're probably right.|I just need a good night's sleep.
{43795}{43820}{Y:i}So, what does this do?
{43821}{43869}That engages the HUD. Stands for "heads up display".
{43870}{43893}Heads up...
{43894}{43924}I love that.
{43933}{43999}It gives me whatever information|I need when flying the Jumper.
{44000}{44032}{Y:i}Navigation, weapons...
{44033}{44078}- You can fly this?|- I can fly it, too.
{44081}{44156}Yes, now that you received|the A.T.A. Therapy, which I invented.
{44157}{44197}I was actually born with the gene,
{44198}{44258}which makes me much more proficient|at operating ancient technology.
{44259}{44306}It does not.|He doesn't fly this thing any better than I do.
{44308}{44334}Don't you lie to Lucius...
{44335}{44370}All right... boys,
{44371}{44404}stop fighting.
{44415}{44444}A gene, you say?
{44450}{44499}It's a genetic fingerprint, if you will,
{44500}{44580}which allows someone such as me|to operate any technology on Atlantis.
{44581}{44621}{Y:i}I developed an inoculation
{44622}{44700}which allows those who don't|naturally possess the gene, such as Dr. McKay,
{44701}{44739}to be able to use some of it as well.
{44740}{44787}Really? A gene, huh?
{44788}{44855}You said an inoculation, huh? That's great.
{44856}{44920}You know what's really interesting...|if you look at this down here...
{45045}{45076}Doc?
{45100}{45139}Could I speak with you for a sec?
{45140}{45173}Excuse me.
{45320}{45347}I...
{45358}{45438}think there might be something wrong with me.
{45495}{45532}It's all right, son.
{45535}{45591}Admitting it is the first step.
{45747}{45800}So you finally came around, did you?
{45801}{45895}You see, once you get a chance|to know Lucius, he's really a very wise and kind...
{45896}{45922}Oh, crap.
{46017}{46074}Why is the Jumper bay roof opening?
{46082}{46134}Jumper three is starting up. Who's in it?
{46144}{46167}I don't know.
{46175}{46224}Jumper three, please identify.
{46237}{46346}Jumper three, this is flight. Identify yourself.|Look, close the door.
{46349}{46379}It's too late.
{46382}{46417}It's left the bay.
{46632}{46694}Hey, Carson. Sorry about that.
{46701}{46722}What...
{46728}{46746}Why...
{46747}{46842}I'm taking you to the mainland.|It's for your own good. Trust me.
{46892}{46941}- How often does that happen?|- This has never happened before.
{46942}{47014}- You know, we have very, very strict flight protocol...|- He'd have to have a key or something...
{47015}{47106}A security officer saw Colonel Sheppard|carrying Dr. Beckett toward the Jumper bay
{47107}{47143}moments before the Jumper took off.
{47144}{47185}So it was them in the flying machine?
{47186}{47220}My computer's missing.
{47221}{47274}A tablet, two drives, all of my research.
{47275}{47314}I told you that man was dangerous.
{47315}{47427}- I have to say, Liz, I am very disappointed right now.|- I am so very sorry, Lucius.
{47441}{47471}Mobilize Jumper teams.
{47472}{47515}- I want them found.|- Yes.
{47555}{47620}They're very good. They will find them.
{47730}{47765}I need to get back.
{47767}{47800}{Y:i}No, you don't.
{47801}{47876}Lucius needs me.|You have no right to abduct me like this.
{47877}{47919}Call it an intervention.
{47945}{48032}You probably don't realize it right now,|but what you're going through is
{48038}{48070}kind of like a...
{48075}{48104}a detox.
{48125}{48147}Now,
{48162}{48260}according to the research Rodney was able|to do before joining the Lucius fan club,
{48270}{48362}that liquid he's been drinking|contains some kind of a chemical.
{48372}{48469}It interacts with the body and|causes a secretion of a pheromone,
{48470}{48582}and then there's something about|gamma activity in the prefrontral cortrex.
{48583}{48613}Prefrontal cortex.
{48614}{48691}The part of the brain responsible|for positive emotions.
{48692}{48734}See, that's why I need you.
{48735}{48853}It seems that when people are exposed|to this pheromone, in close proximity, it makes them...
{48869}{48925}easy to influence,
{48938}{49016}and the longer they're exposed,|the worse the addiction gets.
{49017}{49079}You mean literally an addictive personality?
{49080}{49113}That's what it looks like.
{49149}{49183}It's rubbish!
{49188}{49230}Check for yourself.
{49232}{49308}I will bet you a year's pay|that the liquid in that vial is
{49309}{49402}some kind of extract made from|the herb that you collected for him.
{49403}{49454}He made you his mule.
{49473}{49523}If this is true, why weren't you affected?
{49524}{49576}My cold. I can hardly breathe.
{49577}{49595}Plus...
{49605}{49645}I haven't been around him much.
{49646}{49676}Look...
{49682}{49801}I would just kidnap him and take him away|somewhere until the pheromone wore off,
{49802}{49888}but the people back on his home|planet are starting to get sick,
{49889}{49933}and it looks like they're going|to get worse before they get better.
{49934}{49983}I don't want to put our people through that.
{49984}{50030}You're doing it to me right now!
{50070}{50113}Buck up, Carson.
{50117}{50151}You haven't been exposed that long.
{50152}{50265}Look, I need you to figure out a way|how to counteract this thing.
{50269}{50318}There's got to be an antidote of some kind.
{50403}{50430}I can't.
{50439}{50500}Yes, you can.
{50509}{50539}You can beat it.
{50603}{50651}But he needs me.
{50793}{50822}{Y:i}We should head back.
{50823}{50857}We've been searching for hours.
{50858}{50896}We just left, McKay.
{50900}{50972}I don't like being this far away from Atlantis.|Lucius is probably worried.
{50973}{51000}You think he's worried?
{51001}{51038}{Y:i}Jumper two, report.
{51045}{51096}We're reading several life signs, but
{51097}{51161}they might be Athosian hunting|parties, we're going to go check them out.
{51162}{51212}- Is Lucius worried about us?|{Y:i}- Lucius?
{51220}{51247}{Y:i}He's fine.
{51248}{51279}{Y:i}Just keep looking.
{51289}{51331}I should have stayed with him.
{51509}{51545}Wait just a minute.
{51553}{51580}What is it?
{51586}{51638}Don't move.
{51739}{51794}That thing is set to stun, right?
{51795}{51816}Yeah.
{51838}{51861}Good.
{51921}{51951}Carson are you all right?
{51952}{52030}I will be once I get back to Lucius.
{52090}{52133}What did you shoot him for?
{52185}{52276}Now we're gonna have to carry him|all the way back to the Jumper.
{52540}{52575}Good morning, Colonel.
{52576}{52632}I want to apologize for this harsh treatment.
{52638}{52686}I hate that Elizabeth had to do this.
{52687}{52721}Cut the crap.
{52752}{52777}So...
{52797}{52836}that herb of yours...
{52837}{52887}One of my greatest discoveries.
{52896}{52973}Well, it's my only great discover but you got to admit,
{52978}{53018}it's pretty great.
{53033}{53078}How did you get by before that?
{53079}{53115}I was a baker.
{53122}{53158}Bread, mostly.
{53159}{53223}The occasional muffin at festival time.
{53233}{53291}So that herb pretty much changed everything.
{53322}{53352}Yeah.
{53375}{53435}Yeah, I baked it into my own bread...
{53440}{53468}I like to experiment...
{53469}{53526}and I noticed that people started to like me.
{53527}{53566}Well, hate me less but
{53568}{53614}pretty soon it became "like".
{53624}{53708}{Y:i}So I perfected a potion.|It worked great for years.
{53717}{53819}Then the Wraith set up an outpost|on the only planet where I could get the herb.
{53833}{53888}I knew I could never go back there.
{53892}{53929}Until we showed up.
{53956}{54007}I'm telling you, it was fate...
{54014}{54078}and everybody wanted to help,|so I let them.
{54084}{54155}See, that's the great thing about this herb.
{54156}{54195}Nobody gets hurt.
{54207}{54283}They just want to help me all the time.|What's wrong with that?
{54308}{54351}I'm a nice guy.
{54358}{54409}I never make them do anything they didn't want to do.
{54410}{54451}Six wives?
{54459}{54502}Sometimes all at once.
{54535}{54608}You know, when you get over this cold,|you and I are going to have a long chat,
{54609}{54650}face to face,
{54663}{54744}and I've got a feeling we're going|to become the best of friends,
{54754}{54822}and you're going to want to help me, too all the time,
{54831}{54874}and you'll love it.
{54884}{54931}Just a warning, Lucius...
{54933}{55012}you get too close to me,|it'll be the last thing you do.
{55013}{55055}{Y:i}That's all right, Colonel.
{55060}{55098}I'm in no rush.
{55099}{55129}{Y:i}Lucius?
{55159}{55187}Yeah, go ahead, Carson.
{55188}{55235}{Y:i}I've finished preparing the inoculation.
{55236}{55286}All right, I'll be right down.
{55297}{55380}I've got to go get an inoculation.|We'll talk after.
{55385}{55426}He's giving you the A.T.A. therapy?
{55427}{55453}Yeah.
{55475}{55521}Isn't that great?
{55694}{55752}There. All done.
{55755}{55778}Now, remember,
{55779}{55899}- it's only effective in 47% of those who receive it.|- Well, I'm a naturally lucky fella.
{55900}{55982}The only way to know for sure is to have|you try to operate something.
{55983}{56006}Okay.
{56024}{56069}It takes about an hour to be effective.
{56070}{56099}In the meantime,
{56100}{56160}just rest easy, dear friend.
{56182}{56229}Are you feeling okay?|Can I get you anything?
{56230}{56262}No, Rodney.
{56284}{56301}I'm fine.
{56302}{56334}- You sure?|- Absolutely.
{56335}{56391}- Because it would be no trouble.|- Mess hall.
{56392}{56425}Blue jello.
{56426}{56462}Just a little bit of whipped cream.
{56463}{56493}Right away.
{56609}{56691}We really should talk about marriage.
{56736}{56785}{Y:i}Jumper one,|this is flight.
{56786}{56833}The bay doors are open.
{56858}{56898}You are go for launch.
{56912}{56931}"Go for launch".
{56932}{56994}{Y:i}That's so exciting.|Thanks Rodney.
{56996}{57040}All right, here goes.
{57042}{57077}{Y:i}I'll take it from here.
{57158}{57192}You're supposed to be in jail.
{57205}{57222}Carson.
{57223}{57284}Save your breath, your charm|no longer has any effect on me.
{57285}{57323}No... no, but...
{57325}{57349}Carson...
{57436}{57474}we're supposed to be best of friends.
{57475}{57528}Carson didn't give you the A.T.A. gene.
{57529}{57550}What?
{57551}{57648}I'm afraid it's a serum that effectively|neutralizes the chemical in that herb of yours.
{57649}{57684}Took some myself.
{57763}{57796}I don't know what that means.
{57797}{57900}It means we can have that face to face|conversation you always wanted us to have.
{57901}{57985}{Y:i}The only thing|that will happen is you'll catch my cold.
{58052}{58092}What is taking him so long?
{58093}{58132}I should go up there.
{58136}{58178}Wait.|Wait!
{58186}{58225}They're taking off.
{58331}{58363}It worked!
{58473}{58510}{Y:i}He's flying it.
{58511}{58574}"He flies. He flies so beautifully!"
{58619}{58699}Fly, Lucius, fly.
{58870}{58899}Where are you taking me?
{58900}{58939}Little vacation.
{58949}{59068}Just enough time to let Dr. Beckett give the serum|to the rest of my people without you interfering.
{59087}{59120}And then what?
{59136}{59181}Then maybe i'll take you back home.
{59186}{59244}I'm sure your people will be thrilled to see you again.
{59271}{59313}You would do that for me?
{59324}{59388}Without even being under the effect of the herb?
{59429}{59503}- After all I did?|- Well, I'm a nice guy.
{59524}{59573}Oh, Colonel, I can't thank you enough.
{59574}{59664}- Thank you so much...|- After I give them the serum.
{60091}{60161}So how was Lucius' homecoming?
{60162}{60182}Well...
{60183}{60205}they didn't kill him,
{60206}{60262}although I do see a string of divorces in his future.
{60263}{60307}That's if they haven't strung him up first.
{60308}{60391}Well, the townspeople are over their withdrawal|and on the mend, so I doubt that will happen.
{60392}{60503}That is, unless we discover he's revealed|the location of Atlantis to anyone.
{60504}{60554}In which case I said I would track him down,
{60555}{60654}- hang him by his feet and cut off his...|- Thank you. We get the idea.
{60671}{60714}So everyone here...
{60724}{60758}back to normal?
{60799}{60841}We're still fine, John.
{60850}{60915}No lingering desires?
{60922}{60986}Secret longings for his touch?
{60987}{61089}It's embarrassing enough without|you constantly reminding us thank you.
{61097}{61135}All right, all right.
{61145}{61229}Hey, buddy, I'd better get back and clean|your quarters before the next scout.
{61252}{61277}Right.
{61304}{61338}Rodney.
{61373}{61445}It was one teeny, tiny taste, for research purposes.
{61446}{61475}- Burn it.|- All of it.
{61476}{61497}Right now.
{61516}{61544}Fine.
{61547}{61590}Story of my life.
