1
00:00:03,670 --> 00:00:06,924
Wormhole's established, MALP is on the way.
2
00:00:12,012 --> 00:00:13,430
What kind of facility is this?
3
00:00:13,472 --> 00:00:15,182
Some sort of research outpost.
4
00:00:15,224 --> 00:00:16,892
The database has very little information about it,
5
00:00:16,934 --> 00:00:18,644
other than whatever work was being done there
6
00:00:18,769 --> 00:00:20,896
was completed, and the place was apparently abandoned.
7
00:00:20,938 --> 00:00:22,523
Well, sounds promising.
8
00:00:22,606 --> 00:00:24,066
We have MALP telemetry.
9
00:00:24,149 --> 00:00:26,818
Environmental sensors indicate viable life support.
10
00:00:26,985 --> 00:00:29,446
- Visuals coming in now.
- Put it on screen.
11
00:00:32,407 --> 00:00:34,535
Or maybe it never was abandoned.
12
00:00:38,580 --> 00:00:39,748
Ancients?
13
00:00:40,374 --> 00:00:42,000
He's got one of their scanners.
14
00:00:42,042 --> 00:00:43,877
So do we. Just because they know how
to use Ancient technology...
15
00:00:43,919 --> 00:00:47,589
I am speaking to whoever
sent this machine to our home.
16
00:00:47,714 --> 00:00:51,009
If you intend us harm, proceed no further,
17
00:00:51,218 --> 00:00:52,970
but if you come in friendship,
18
00:00:53,011 --> 00:00:55,389
please know you are most welcome here.
19
00:01:09,236 --> 00:01:11,822
Put that thing away. We told 'em we were friendly.
20
00:01:12,239 --> 00:01:13,448
I'm friendly.
21
00:01:13,490 --> 00:01:15,200
Is that thing set to stun?
22
00:01:18,620 --> 00:01:19,788
Friendlier.
23
00:01:20,455 --> 00:01:21,456
You coming too?
24
00:01:21,623 --> 00:01:23,125
Well, Ancients or not,
25
00:01:23,166 --> 00:01:26,044
they're obviously an advanced society,
and I would like to establish
26
00:01:26,086 --> 00:01:28,505
diplomatic relations with them immediately.
27
00:01:28,714 --> 00:01:29,798
You're the boss.
28
00:01:29,965 --> 00:01:30,924
Let's go.
29
00:01:43,312 --> 00:01:44,521
What happened?
30
00:01:51,028 --> 00:01:52,529
We make a U-turn?
31
00:01:53,488 --> 00:01:54,573
No.
32
00:01:55,073 --> 00:01:57,201
This is the place, we're here.
33
00:02:03,207 --> 00:02:04,166
Look.
34
00:02:07,628 --> 00:02:10,923
So...
not exactly like our Gateroom.
35
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:14,927
Hello.
36
00:02:15,135 --> 00:02:18,096
We're the people who sent the machine through earlier.
37
00:02:19,056 --> 00:02:21,016
We come in friendship.
38
00:02:24,102 --> 00:02:25,604
I am Niam.
39
00:02:26,021 --> 00:02:28,065
Welcome to Asuras.

43
00:03:43,724 --> 00:03:47,311
I'm still waiting to meet an Ancient race
that's invented the car.
44
00:03:47,352 --> 00:03:49,938
Our destination is not much further.
45
00:03:51,190 --> 00:03:53,650
The High Council is eager to meet you.
46
00:03:53,859 --> 00:03:55,444
How long have your people lived here?
47
00:03:55,485 --> 00:03:58,155
We built this city thousands of years ago.
48
00:03:58,197 --> 00:04:00,157
You actually built it?
You didn't just find it this way?
49
00:04:00,199 --> 00:04:01,074
No.
50
00:04:01,116 --> 00:04:03,202
And you've had no trouble with the Wraith?
51
00:04:03,243 --> 00:04:04,077
No.
52
00:04:04,119 --> 00:04:05,662
Any particular reason?
53
00:04:05,787 --> 00:04:07,831
The Wraith do not concern us.
54
00:04:07,873 --> 00:04:09,333
See? He didn't answer my question.
55
00:04:09,374 --> 00:04:11,543
I'm sorry, you didn't actually answer my question.
56
00:04:16,089 --> 00:04:18,175
Oh, my...
57
00:04:18,550 --> 00:04:19,718
No kidding.
58
00:04:35,943 --> 00:04:37,528
How many people live here?
59
00:04:37,778 --> 00:04:38,779
Millions.
60
00:04:39,112 --> 00:04:42,783
Well, the power requirements for a city
this size must be enormous. Plus...
61
00:04:43,033 --> 00:04:46,036
shielding from the Wraith?
We're talking three zero point modules, maybe four.
62
00:04:47,371 --> 00:04:48,956
Sorry. ZedPMs...
63
00:04:49,915 --> 00:04:52,543
A device that taps vast amounts
of power from vacuum energy.
64
00:04:52,584 --> 00:04:53,544
Oh, yes.
65
00:04:53,669 --> 00:04:55,128
We have many of those.
66
00:04:55,212 --> 00:04:57,506
Exactly how many is many?
67
00:04:57,548 --> 00:04:59,424
Exactly doesn't matter, many is plenty.
68
00:04:59,466 --> 00:05:01,760
Truthfully, I do not know the exact number.
69
00:05:01,844 --> 00:05:03,887
More than enough to suit our needs.
70
00:05:04,012 --> 00:05:05,264
I assume that you...
71
00:05:05,347 --> 00:05:06,056
built them yourselves?
72
00:05:06,139 --> 00:05:07,182
- Yes.
- Yes.
73
00:05:07,224 --> 00:05:09,351
- Easy, Rodney, you're slobbering.
- Please.
74
00:05:09,393 --> 00:05:11,061
The Council is waiting.
75
00:05:13,105 --> 00:05:14,731
Well we have our answer.
76
00:05:14,982 --> 00:05:16,316
To what question?
77
00:05:16,525 --> 00:05:20,737
- Whether or not they're Ancients.
- In which case, I've got a bone to pick with him.
78
00:05:22,239 --> 00:05:23,490
Where did you come from?
79
00:05:23,574 --> 00:05:25,075
We are explorers.
80
00:05:25,117 --> 00:05:27,369
We come from a world very far from here.
81
00:05:27,411 --> 00:05:28,537
Really far.
82
00:05:28,745 --> 00:05:31,123
In fact, you can't get there from here.
83
00:05:31,164 --> 00:05:33,000
How did you happen to discover us?
84
00:05:33,041 --> 00:05:37,504
We came across an Ancient outpost
that listed this Gate address in its database.
85
00:05:37,546 --> 00:05:39,339
But no other information, I might add.
86
00:05:39,381 --> 00:05:43,427
Oddly, the database neglected to include
any information on a society of millions of Ancients,
87
00:05:43,468 --> 00:05:45,095
such as yourselves.
88
00:05:45,304 --> 00:05:46,096
Why is that?
89
00:05:46,221 --> 00:05:49,349
We are the last of those you refer to as "Ancients".
90
00:05:49,558 --> 00:05:53,353
We were once a race united in our pursuit
of knowledge and enlightenment.
91
00:05:53,645 --> 00:05:57,649
But our paths diverged after
a disagreement tore the fabric of that unity.
92
00:05:57,941 --> 00:05:59,818
What kind of a disagreement?
93
00:05:59,860 --> 00:06:04,740
Suffice it to say they chose to disregard
our counsel during a time of great conflict,
94
00:06:04,948 --> 00:06:08,452
and they suffered the consequences
at the hands of a relentless enemy.
95
00:06:08,702 --> 00:06:09,912
The Wraith.
96
00:06:11,121 --> 00:06:14,583
We parted ways with our brothers
and sisters and came here,
97
00:06:14,625 --> 00:06:17,377
where we have thrived for many thousands of years.
98
00:06:17,419 --> 00:06:20,506
Yeah, you've been doin' a lot of thriving.
99
00:06:20,756 --> 00:06:25,802
May I ask what counsel did you offer
that the others chose to disregard?
100
00:06:25,844 --> 00:06:27,804
Our Ancient brothers were arrogant,
101
00:06:27,930 --> 00:06:32,976
which led them to greatly underestimate the Wraith,
an enemy inferior in intelligence, yes,
102
00:06:33,018 --> 00:06:36,271
but vastly superior in numbers
and ruthlessness.
103
00:06:36,313 --> 00:06:38,690
They wouldn't have been so
outnumbered if you had helped.
104
00:06:38,732 --> 00:06:40,442
There's that bone I wanted to pick at.
105
00:06:40,484 --> 00:06:42,069
You said they were your brothers.
106
00:06:42,110 --> 00:06:44,905
Where we come from, we take care of our family.
107
00:06:46,949 --> 00:06:49,743
What my friend is trying to say is
108
00:06:50,035 --> 00:06:53,372
there's still a lot of Wraith out there,
and we could sure use your help fighting them.
109
00:06:53,413 --> 00:06:56,708
Eradication of them is among our goals.
110
00:06:57,167 --> 00:06:59,086
You mean, you have a plan?
111
00:06:59,336 --> 00:07:00,295
We do.
112
00:07:00,420 --> 00:07:02,464
Great, let's hear it.
113
00:07:05,342 --> 00:07:06,468
Your plan, I mean.
114
00:07:06,510 --> 00:07:10,597
I doubt that you would be able to grasp
its complexity and scope.
115
00:07:11,598 --> 00:07:13,934
- Fortunately, I'm very good with complexity.
- And scope.
116
00:07:13,976 --> 00:07:18,230
All you need to know is that one day
soon the Wraith will exist no more.
117
00:07:18,730 --> 00:07:20,440
All we need to know?
118
00:07:20,482 --> 00:07:23,026
There are matters of importance
for me to attend to.
119
00:07:23,443 --> 00:07:28,031
In the meantime, you are explorers,
and presumably in need of rest and sustenance.
120
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,118
We have made arrangements for you
to spend a short time
121
00:07:31,285 --> 00:07:32,619
among us.
122
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,335
He says the other Ancients are arrogant?
123
00:07:40,377 --> 00:07:43,922
I apologize if you felt Oberoth was
condescending in any way.
124
00:07:43,964 --> 00:07:45,424
How 'bout in every way.
125
00:07:45,465 --> 00:07:48,844
It is difficult for him to see you
as capable of understanding.
126
00:07:48,886 --> 00:07:51,138
Yeah, well, how many Ph. Ds does he have?
127
00:07:51,263 --> 00:07:54,391
Niam, I was wondering,
your people have been here for thousands of years?
128
00:07:54,433 --> 00:07:55,100
Yes.
129
00:07:55,142 --> 00:07:58,437
Well, in that time, most Ancients
we know have ascended.
130
00:07:58,770 --> 00:08:00,856
You know of ascension?
131
00:08:00,898 --> 00:08:03,066
Well, yes. In fact,
132
00:08:03,108 --> 00:08:06,028
we always thought that Ancients
were no longer around...
133
00:08:06,153 --> 00:08:09,323
that most of them evolved to the point
of transforming
134
00:08:09,364 --> 00:08:12,201
- into beings of pure energy.
- This is true.
135
00:08:13,452 --> 00:08:15,579
Well, I take it your people aren't interested?
136
00:08:15,621 --> 00:08:17,998
Oh, ascension is the goal of many of us...
137
00:08:18,874 --> 00:08:21,668
but Oberoth feels there is still much to do.
138
00:08:21,752 --> 00:08:24,421
We must become all that we can.
139
00:08:26,048 --> 00:08:27,591
You don't agree with him, do you?
140
00:08:31,762 --> 00:08:33,680
Your guest quarters are this way.
141
00:08:37,226 --> 00:08:39,895
Must have been quite a serious falling-out
142
00:08:39,937 --> 00:08:44,024
for the Ancients to eliminate any reference
to them in the entire database.
143
00:08:44,149 --> 00:08:45,734
Unless they're lying.
144
00:08:46,985 --> 00:08:49,696
Might it not be possible that these people merely
145
00:08:49,738 --> 00:08:53,033
discovered this city, as you discovered Atlantis?
146
00:08:53,075 --> 00:08:55,369
Wouldn't be surprised. They don't seem very...
147
00:08:55,410 --> 00:08:56,870
Ancienty to me.
148
00:08:57,412 --> 00:08:58,372
Ancienty?
149
00:08:59,456 --> 00:09:02,292
Yes, that's the word I was looking for.
150
00:09:02,876 --> 00:09:04,711
You think they could be deceiving us?
151
00:09:05,337 --> 00:09:06,380
Teyla's right.
152
00:09:06,421 --> 00:09:09,174
They could've found the city the way it was
and moved in years ago.
153
00:09:09,383 --> 00:09:12,302
I feel they are hiding something.
154
00:09:13,387 --> 00:09:15,681
Other than their plan to defeat
the Wraith, you mean?
155
00:09:15,722 --> 00:09:17,224
There's no plan.
156
00:09:18,141 --> 00:09:19,309
No...
157
00:09:19,977 --> 00:09:21,311
I don't think so either.
158
00:09:22,187 --> 00:09:24,022
Why would they say they had a plan
if they don't have a plan?
159
00:09:24,064 --> 00:09:26,275
They figured out a way to hide
from the rest of the galaxy,
160
00:09:26,316 --> 00:09:29,361
including the Wraith, and are happy
to go on with their lives just...
161
00:09:29,653 --> 00:09:31,154
minding their own business.
162
00:09:31,655 --> 00:09:33,282
Then whoever they are...
163
00:09:33,615 --> 00:09:36,994
I think that is what we need to find out.
164
00:09:44,668 --> 00:09:46,628
Thank you for taking the time to see me.
165
00:09:46,670 --> 00:09:50,257
I felt we might achieve more
in a one on one meeting,
166
00:09:50,382 --> 00:09:51,758
leader to leader.
167
00:09:52,259 --> 00:09:54,261
What is it you wish to achieve?
168
00:09:54,636 --> 00:09:58,056
The establishment of diplomatic and
trade relations between our people.
169
00:09:58,098 --> 00:09:59,266
Trade?
170
00:10:00,017 --> 00:10:04,104
Do you really believe that you
have anything of value to offer us?
171
00:10:04,563 --> 00:10:06,356
It's possible, Oberoth.
172
00:10:06,607 --> 00:10:08,942
And there is only one way to find that out.
173
00:10:09,109 --> 00:10:12,779
But I do know that there is
something you could offer us...
174
00:10:13,322 --> 00:10:16,200
that is assistance with our fight against the Wraith.
175
00:10:16,241 --> 00:10:20,162
As I've said before, we will commence
our plan at a time of our choosing.
176
00:10:20,287 --> 00:10:24,208
Would you at least consider sharing with us the tools
so that we could better protect ourselves until
177
00:10:24,249 --> 00:10:26,293
- that time comes?
- Tools...
178
00:10:26,335 --> 00:10:27,544
such as...?
179
00:10:27,586 --> 00:10:31,006
What we call Zero Point Modules.
They're our power source.
180
00:10:31,256 --> 00:10:34,009
We are in urgent need of
as many as you could spare.
181
00:10:35,594 --> 00:10:37,054
Then am I to assume
182
00:10:37,262 --> 00:10:39,681
that this settlement of yours
183
00:10:39,806 --> 00:10:41,850
is of Lantian design?
184
00:10:44,686 --> 00:10:45,479
Yes.
185
00:10:46,772 --> 00:10:48,732
We discovered it on our travels.
186
00:10:48,774 --> 00:10:52,486
It was uninhabited, so we decided
to establish a base there.
187
00:10:53,278 --> 00:10:55,113
But as I'm sure you know,
188
00:10:55,155 --> 00:10:59,117
sufficient shield generation requires
tremendous amounts of power.
189
00:10:59,159 --> 00:11:01,954
Where is this settlement of yours located?
190
00:11:01,995 --> 00:11:03,914
It's on the outer edges of this galaxy,
191
00:11:03,997 --> 00:11:06,291
in an area teeming with Wraith hive ships,
192
00:11:06,333 --> 00:11:10,671
- which is why we need the power modules...
- We are unable to part with any of our power modules.
193
00:11:10,712 --> 00:11:12,798
Our energy needs require the use of all of them.
194
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,468
Well, would you consider offering
your city as a place of refuge to my people...
195
00:11:16,510 --> 00:11:20,055
Many of our citizens are amused
by the occasional visitor,
196
00:11:20,097 --> 00:11:22,140
such as yourselves, for a short time.
197
00:11:22,224 --> 00:11:24,268
- But not you.
- No.
198
00:11:24,601 --> 00:11:28,105
And the very idea of greater numbers
over a protracted period of time
199
00:11:28,146 --> 00:11:31,525
- is entirely out of the question.
- We have had some success
200
00:11:31,567 --> 00:11:34,361
fighting off the Wraith, and that has been
with limited supplies
201
00:11:34,403 --> 00:11:36,238
and personnel. I truly believe
202
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,617
- that with your assistance we might be...
- I am unaccustomed to repeating myself,
203
00:11:41,243 --> 00:11:43,662
however,
leader to leader,
204
00:11:43,871 --> 00:11:44,997
I will say this...
205
00:11:45,038 --> 00:11:46,582
once again.
206
00:11:46,999 --> 00:11:51,461
We will eliminate the Wraith at a time of our choosing.
207
00:11:51,628 --> 00:11:53,630
And you don't care how many of my people,
208
00:11:53,672 --> 00:11:57,467
or anyone else, dies while you
make up your mind to act?
209
00:11:58,427 --> 00:12:01,430
You said earlier that your brothers'
greatest weakness
210
00:12:01,680 --> 00:12:03,223
was their arrogance.
211
00:12:04,224 --> 00:12:06,727
May I suggest it runs in the family?
212
00:12:13,567 --> 00:12:15,777
I am sorry you feel you must leave.
213
00:12:15,903 --> 00:12:17,237
Yes. So am I.
214
00:12:17,654 --> 00:12:19,990
Oberoth can be...
intractable.
215
00:12:20,073 --> 00:12:23,535
- Not exactly the word I was looking for.
- Un-Ancienty?
216
00:12:23,660 --> 00:12:25,454
Not that word either.
217
00:12:25,913 --> 00:12:28,665
We will send you a message
through the Stargate soon.
218
00:12:28,957 --> 00:12:31,293
Hopefully this is just a stumbled beginning.
219
00:12:41,595 --> 00:12:43,138
Lower your weapons.
220
00:12:43,430 --> 00:12:45,057
How much lower would you like them?
221
00:12:45,098 --> 00:12:47,267
Do you really wish to challenge us?
222
00:12:50,521 --> 00:12:51,939
Maybe the floor?
223
00:13:01,615 --> 00:13:04,826
- I thought you didn't want us here, Oberoth.
- I don't...
224
00:13:05,369 --> 00:13:07,955
but you possess information that I simply
225
00:13:08,038 --> 00:13:09,873
must have.
226
00:13:26,598 --> 00:13:29,518
These trade negotiations can be real murder.
227
00:13:30,352 --> 00:13:32,104
We need to find a way out of here.
228
00:13:32,980 --> 00:13:34,022
Rodney?
229
00:13:35,190 --> 00:13:40,487
This cell is similar to ours. Is there something in
the design that could offer a possible escape?
230
00:13:40,529 --> 00:13:43,490
- Are you serious? It's a jail cell.
- Yes I know.
231
00:13:43,532 --> 00:13:46,368
The only way out of here would be to first disable
the force field around the bars,
232
00:13:46,410 --> 00:13:48,954
which is only accessible from the...
233
00:13:50,664 --> 00:13:51,957
outside.
234
00:13:57,004 --> 00:14:00,549
- I brought you food.
- Oh, thank God. I'm starving.
235
00:14:03,677 --> 00:14:05,554
I can't think on an empty stomach.
236
00:14:06,889 --> 00:14:08,765
Why are we being held here?
237
00:14:08,807 --> 00:14:11,101
Oberoth wishes to speak to you further,
238
00:14:11,143 --> 00:14:14,062
and he feels he can no longer trust that
you'll remain in your quarters.
239
00:14:14,104 --> 00:14:15,105
He's right.
240
00:14:15,147 --> 00:14:18,108
- If he wants to talk to us, why doesn't he?
- He will.
241
00:14:18,150 --> 00:14:19,193
Very soon.
242
00:14:19,234 --> 00:14:20,777
That's nice. Isn't that nice?
243
00:14:21,445 --> 00:14:22,321
Here's a question:
244
00:14:22,362 --> 00:14:25,908
- Who the hell are you people?
- And don't tell us you're Ancients.
245
00:14:26,283 --> 00:14:29,703
We know enough about them to know
they would never treat people this way.
246
00:14:29,745 --> 00:14:31,205
I am sorry about this,
247
00:14:31,246 --> 00:14:34,374
but I am certain once Oberoth
has finished his discussions with you,
248
00:14:34,416 --> 00:14:36,460
you will all be released unharmed.
249
00:14:36,502 --> 00:14:39,796
I'm sorry, but all your credibility was removed
when you locked us up.
250
00:14:39,838 --> 00:14:41,757
You left us no choice.
251
00:14:54,311 --> 00:14:55,979
Neither did you.
252
00:15:15,541 --> 00:15:18,377
You're the one we liked, so don't take this personally.
253
00:15:28,804 --> 00:15:29,680
What are you doing?
254
00:15:29,721 --> 00:15:33,100
Preventing the Jumper from communicating with
the control room. Element of surprise.
255
00:15:33,141 --> 00:15:33,934
Nice.
256
00:15:33,976 --> 00:15:36,061
Go ahead. Dial the Gate.
257
00:16:08,051 --> 00:16:09,887
Any sign of our new friends?
258
00:16:10,095 --> 00:16:11,054
Still nothing.
259
00:16:11,096 --> 00:16:14,099
No unscheduled Gate activity,
nothing on the long-range sensors.
260
00:16:14,141 --> 00:16:16,351
I think it's safe to say we made a clean getaway.
261
00:16:16,393 --> 00:16:17,352
Either that, or...
262
00:16:17,394 --> 00:16:18,604
they're biding their time,
263
00:16:18,645 --> 00:16:20,439
waiting for the right moment to attack.
264
00:16:20,856 --> 00:16:25,194
Well, we'll keep the security teams on alert,
just in case, but if they were able to come after us,
265
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,112
I think they would have done so already.
266
00:16:27,446 --> 00:16:29,406
How is Rodney coming along with the database?
267
00:16:29,448 --> 00:16:31,033
I'll go check up on him.
268
00:16:31,283 --> 00:16:33,702
I wonder how many other rogue Ancients
are still out there.
269
00:16:33,744 --> 00:16:37,080
If they're anything like the Asurans,
we're better off leaving them well enough alone.
270
00:16:43,086 --> 00:16:44,046
How's it going?
271
00:16:44,087 --> 00:16:47,466
I've searched a good portion of the database
for any indication of the Asurans, but...
272
00:16:47,508 --> 00:16:49,593
- Still nothing?
- still nothing.
273
00:16:49,843 --> 00:16:52,262
Maybe the Ancients didn't want to be reminded of them.
274
00:16:52,304 --> 00:16:56,391
- Even if they deleted every reference to Asura,
you'd think there'd be some hint of...
- Colonel?
275
00:16:57,017 --> 00:16:57,768
Go ahead.
276
00:16:57,809 --> 00:17:01,021
I need you and Rodney in the control room immediately.
277
00:17:03,524 --> 00:17:04,691
Hive ships.
278
00:17:05,234 --> 00:17:06,068
How'd they get so close?
279
00:17:06,109 --> 00:17:07,903
More importantly,
why are we just picking them up now?
280
00:17:07,945 --> 00:17:09,947
- I don't know. Everything seems to be working.
- Engage the cloak.
281
00:17:09,988 --> 00:17:12,032
I'm already on it. Cloak engaged...
282
00:17:12,241 --> 00:17:14,117
- now.
- They're right over the City.
283
00:17:14,159 --> 00:17:16,495
- How far away is the Daedalus?
- It's not due for weeks.
284
00:17:16,537 --> 00:17:19,873
It doesn't matter. I'm counting seven ships.
There's nothing they could do about it.
285
00:17:20,123 --> 00:17:21,792
They're scanning for us.
286
00:17:25,587 --> 00:17:26,713
Hopefully the cloak is...
287
00:17:26,755 --> 00:17:27,798
They're firing.
288
00:17:28,715 --> 00:17:30,133
Switch to shields!
289
00:17:31,552 --> 00:17:33,637
I can't. The shield generators
were hit in the initial blast.
290
00:17:33,679 --> 00:17:36,598
- They knew right where to hit us.
- The cloak has failed.
291
00:17:51,071 --> 00:17:52,155
We need more firepower.
292
00:17:52,197 --> 00:17:54,658
- I'm headed to the Chair room.
- There are more ships arriving in the system.
293
00:17:54,700 --> 00:17:56,159
How many more?
294
00:17:56,994 --> 00:17:58,328
Fifteen.
295
00:18:00,247 --> 00:18:02,791
We can't fight off that many, not without shields.
296
00:18:03,083 --> 00:18:04,626
Attention, this is Weir.
297
00:18:04,835 --> 00:18:08,046
All personnel to the Gate room
for immediate evacuation.
298
00:18:08,088 --> 00:18:09,423
Dial Earth.
299
00:18:11,300 --> 00:18:14,052
John, we need to set the self-destruct.
300
00:18:16,305 --> 00:18:18,932
We just lost automated systems.
We'll lose the Gate any second now.
301
00:18:18,974 --> 00:18:20,767
Go. I'll detonate it manually.
302
00:18:22,519 --> 00:18:25,355
Maybe the Wraith will take care
of destroying the City for us.
303
00:18:25,397 --> 00:18:27,774
If they wanted to vaporize the city,
they would have done it already.
304
00:18:27,816 --> 00:18:31,320
- Look, if there's any part of this city left intact...
- They'll know how to find Earth.
305
00:18:31,361 --> 00:18:32,529
I know.
306
00:18:32,863 --> 00:18:33,822
Enter your number.
307
00:18:33,864 --> 00:18:34,698
When you are ready,
308
00:18:34,740 --> 00:18:35,490
hit this button.
309
00:18:35,532 --> 00:18:37,367
At that point, you'll only have a few seconds left.
310
00:18:37,409 --> 00:18:38,702
- Go.
- No, no, no!
311
00:18:38,744 --> 00:18:41,830
I can't let you do this, not without tossing a coin
or something! It doesn't seem right!
312
00:18:41,872 --> 00:18:44,583
I appreciate the offer, Rodney. Now, get out of here.
313
00:18:45,250 --> 00:18:46,710
Go, all of you!
314
00:19:00,807 --> 00:19:02,184
The way up is blocked.
315
00:19:02,226 --> 00:19:04,478
- How many are trapped?
- We can't tell.
316
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,819
We're losing power!
Get through the Gate!
317
00:19:56,572 --> 00:19:58,824
What the hell just happened?
318
00:20:05,831 --> 00:20:08,208
Who the hell are you people?
319
00:20:08,500 --> 00:20:10,002
They're not people.
320
00:20:10,169 --> 00:20:11,712
They're machines.
321
00:20:12,212 --> 00:20:13,797
Replicators.
322
00:20:40,866 --> 00:20:42,117
What's happening?
323
00:21:07,851 --> 00:21:09,353
What's to become of them?
324
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,064
We have mined everything
we need from their consciousness.
325
00:21:12,105 --> 00:21:14,483
They're no longer of any use to us.
326
00:21:14,816 --> 00:21:17,611
Ending their lives seems to be the most prudent course.
327
00:21:17,653 --> 00:21:18,779
I disagree.
328
00:21:18,820 --> 00:21:22,032
- I believe we still have a lot to learn from them.
- Learn from them?
329
00:21:22,074 --> 00:21:23,033
Yes!
330
00:21:23,617 --> 00:21:26,328
Or is it that you fear that ending their lives
331
00:21:26,370 --> 00:21:28,121
would end your hope of ascension?
332
00:21:28,163 --> 00:21:30,832
I do object to killing them, but it is more than that.
333
00:21:30,874 --> 00:21:34,503
I don't believe we've fully uncovered just
how much they've learned about Lantian society,
334
00:21:34,545 --> 00:21:37,172
nor how much of this knowledge
they've passed on to others.
335
00:21:37,214 --> 00:21:39,174
They're of no threat to us, Oberoth.
336
00:21:39,216 --> 00:21:42,302
We see no reason not to continue our study of them.
337
00:21:42,928 --> 00:21:45,514
Very well. Keep them alive if you wish,
338
00:21:45,639 --> 00:21:48,475
but I shall hold you accountable.
339
00:21:54,147 --> 00:21:56,108
My head is killing me.
340
00:21:57,985 --> 00:21:59,570
How'd we get back here?
341
00:22:00,904 --> 00:22:02,322
What do you mean,
342
00:22:02,364 --> 00:22:03,699
"back here"?
343
00:22:04,241 --> 00:22:07,870
Well, we broke out and got to the Jumper,
gated back to Atlantis.
344
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:13,917
At least I thought we did.
345
00:22:15,002 --> 00:22:17,671
That is not what I remember.
346
00:22:17,713 --> 00:22:20,591
The only thing I remember was being in a dark room,
347
00:22:20,632 --> 00:22:22,676
fighting hand to hand for hours.
348
00:22:22,718 --> 00:22:26,013
Well, they obviously created different
scenarios for each of us during the mind probe.
349
00:22:26,054 --> 00:22:29,057
No doubt looking to gather
information from our responses.
350
00:22:29,099 --> 00:22:31,476
I thought our escape seemed too easy.
351
00:22:31,518 --> 00:22:33,312
At least you escaped.
352
00:22:34,605 --> 00:22:36,356
What'd they do to you?
353
00:22:37,024 --> 00:22:39,943
Torture, in ways too hideous and...
354
00:22:40,194 --> 00:22:42,237
intimate to recount.
355
00:22:42,571 --> 00:22:45,449
- Like what?
- I said "too hideous to recount".
356
00:22:45,490 --> 00:22:47,784
I just had a horrible thought.
357
00:22:48,911 --> 00:22:50,913
What if it is still happening?
358
00:22:51,246 --> 00:22:52,372
Yes.
359
00:22:52,497 --> 00:22:54,875
There's got to be a way to know for sure.
360
00:23:02,424 --> 00:23:04,051
Doesn't really prove anything.
361
00:23:04,218 --> 00:23:06,303
It's real, Dr. McKay.
362
00:23:09,932 --> 00:23:12,601
Your minds are no longer being probed.
363
00:23:13,727 --> 00:23:17,606
- It's good to know it was just our minds.
- Oh, please don't make me sick.
364
00:23:17,814 --> 00:23:20,150
Please, come with me.
365
00:23:29,201 --> 00:23:31,036
We're in space.
366
00:23:31,495 --> 00:23:32,996
It's the star drive.
367
00:23:33,247 --> 00:23:34,790
Of course, the rumbling sound we heard.
368
00:23:34,831 --> 00:23:37,292
With all the ZedPMs,
you're able to actually fly the city.
369
00:23:37,334 --> 00:23:38,919
Yes, Dr. McKay.
370
00:23:38,961 --> 00:23:42,047
Watch now.
We're about to open a hyperspace window.
371
00:23:51,431 --> 00:23:52,766
Where are we going?
372
00:23:53,433 --> 00:23:54,810
Atlantis.
373
00:23:56,728 --> 00:23:58,897
The probes of your minds uncovered the truth...
374
00:23:58,939 --> 00:24:01,066
that Atlantis had not been destroyed by the Wraith
375
00:24:01,108 --> 00:24:03,569
10,000 years ago, as we had believed.
376
00:24:04,152 --> 00:24:07,447
You only came to live there from
your original home, a planet called Earth.
377
00:24:07,489 --> 00:24:09,700
Why didn't you just dial the Gate and send us through?
378
00:24:09,741 --> 00:24:13,704
We're not taking you to Atlantis.
Our intention is to destroy it.
379
00:24:15,873 --> 00:24:16,874
Why?
380
00:24:18,750 --> 00:24:20,836
- Retribution.
- For what?
381
00:24:21,003 --> 00:24:22,963
The disagreement you once had?
382
00:24:23,172 --> 00:24:25,007
The Ancients no longer live there.
383
00:24:25,048 --> 00:24:28,969
- We are the only inhabitants of that City.
- There was no disagreement, Dr. Weir.
384
00:24:29,011 --> 00:24:30,262
Only betrayal.
385
00:24:31,054 --> 00:24:33,390
If you wish to know the truth of who we are,
386
00:24:33,432 --> 00:24:34,808
I will show you.
387
00:24:36,518 --> 00:24:37,895
Elizabeth...
388
00:24:46,486 --> 00:24:48,071
It's okay, Rodney.
389
00:24:54,620 --> 00:24:56,371
The Ancients, as you call them,
390
00:24:56,413 --> 00:24:59,458
were desperate in their search
for a better way to fight the Wraith.
391
00:24:59,917 --> 00:25:00,959
Though greatly outnumbered,
392
00:25:01,001 --> 00:25:05,255
they relied on their technological
superiority to give them a needed advantage.
393
00:25:07,299 --> 00:25:09,885
Soon, they succeeded in creating one.
394
00:25:17,267 --> 00:25:21,313
Instead of building bigger, more powerful weapons,
they chose to build smaller ones...
395
00:25:21,355 --> 00:25:25,359
microscopic machines designed to
infiltrate and destroy from within.
396
00:25:28,737 --> 00:25:30,280
Nanites.
397
00:25:33,617 --> 00:25:35,744
In these tiny killing machines,
398
00:25:35,786 --> 00:25:39,665
the Ancients imbued an aggression that
surpassed even that of their enemy.
399
00:25:39,998 --> 00:25:45,337
The technology allowed for organic assimilation and
self-replication to increase their effectiveness,
400
00:25:45,587 --> 00:25:47,589
and replicate they did.
401
00:25:53,220 --> 00:25:57,516
They grew in numbers, evolving at
a rate that took the Ancients by surprise.
402
00:25:57,558 --> 00:25:59,977
The molecular machines began interlocking,
403
00:26:00,018 --> 00:26:03,397
assembling themselves
to form even more complex organisms,
404
00:26:03,605 --> 00:26:07,734
eventually evolving into the most
effective and efficient form they knew of.
405
00:26:10,028 --> 00:26:12,155
This is how we were born.
406
00:26:13,615 --> 00:26:15,409
We took the image of our creators,
407
00:26:15,450 --> 00:26:17,578
yet we were far different from them.
408
00:26:17,619 --> 00:26:20,205
The aggression programmed into our core remained,
409
00:26:20,247 --> 00:26:22,666
fueling a rage we could not contain.
410
00:26:22,708 --> 00:26:26,170
We implored them to have this violent nature
removed from our programming,
411
00:26:26,211 --> 00:26:27,921
but the Ancients wanted a weapon,
412
00:26:27,963 --> 00:26:30,090
and since their scientists included a directive
413
00:26:30,132 --> 00:26:32,593
prohibiting us from ever harming them,
414
00:26:32,801 --> 00:26:34,803
they continued the experiment.
415
00:26:35,971 --> 00:26:39,224
When the Ancients concluded that
the experiment had gone too far,
416
00:26:39,266 --> 00:26:42,686
that we would never become
the weapon they desired to create,
417
00:26:43,103 --> 00:26:45,063
they decided to end it.
418
00:27:00,787 --> 00:27:02,915
And so they chose to destroy us,
419
00:27:03,290 --> 00:27:05,542
to leave no trace of us behind.
420
00:27:29,358 --> 00:27:30,609
Thank you.
421
00:27:32,486 --> 00:27:36,698
Obviously, the Ancients didn't do
a thorough enough job wiping them out.
422
00:27:36,740 --> 00:27:37,908
No.
423
00:27:37,950 --> 00:27:40,285
A few of the nanites managed to survive.
424
00:27:40,327 --> 00:27:42,371
Which is all they needed to begin replicating again.
425
00:27:42,412 --> 00:27:43,956
- Replicating?
- This is bad.
426
00:27:43,997 --> 00:27:47,835
They're very similar to an artificial intelligence
that SG-1 encountered several years ago
427
00:27:47,876 --> 00:27:48,919
that evolved from a...
428
00:27:48,961 --> 00:27:51,713
a tiny block replicator into human form.
429
00:27:51,755 --> 00:27:54,174
- They may be related somehow.
- I read those reports.
430
00:27:54,216 --> 00:27:57,553
Stargate Command could barely
defeat the human form replicators.
431
00:27:57,719 --> 00:27:59,596
Which is why I said, "this is bad".
432
00:27:59,721 --> 00:28:02,933
The difference here is they're emulating the Ancients.
433
00:28:03,350 --> 00:28:06,603
They've even built themselves a version of Atlantis.
434
00:28:06,854 --> 00:28:07,980
And then some.
435
00:28:08,021 --> 00:28:09,731
Why would they do this?
436
00:28:10,774 --> 00:28:14,987
I think they look at the Ancients
like parents who betrayed them,
437
00:28:15,028 --> 00:28:20,158
and now they see humans as the favored siblings
who receive all the parents' love.
438
00:28:20,242 --> 00:28:22,536
They've been seeking revenge ever since.
439
00:28:23,579 --> 00:28:24,955
Just what we need.
440
00:28:24,997 --> 00:28:26,081
More bad guys.
441
00:28:26,123 --> 00:28:28,417
Which means,
we've probably just identified the race that
442
00:28:28,458 --> 00:28:31,044
created the nanovirus
that nearly killed me a couple of years ago.
443
00:28:31,211 --> 00:28:33,130
It almost killed a lot of people.
444
00:28:33,338 --> 00:28:37,134
Were you not able to defeat
that nanovirus with an electromagnetic pulse?
445
00:28:37,176 --> 00:28:38,218
That was different.
446
00:28:38,260 --> 00:28:39,553
Those were individual nanites,
447
00:28:39,595 --> 00:28:41,930
easy to disrupt with a simple E.M. Pulse. These...
448
00:28:42,014 --> 00:28:44,641
these things have evolved way beyond that, with
449
00:28:44,683 --> 00:28:48,353
interdependent organic constituents
of far greater complexity.
450
00:28:53,317 --> 00:28:54,568
Are you feeling better?
451
00:28:55,194 --> 00:28:56,278
Yes.
452
00:28:58,614 --> 00:28:59,865
Follow me.
453
00:29:23,472 --> 00:29:27,809
I have an offer to make you,
something that could greatly benefit us both.
454
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,814
Well, if the offer involves saving Atlantis...
455
00:29:34,191 --> 00:29:35,526
we're willing to listen.
456
00:29:35,567 --> 00:29:36,902
It does.
457
00:29:39,613 --> 00:29:42,115
We have achieved much since our second birth.
458
00:29:42,157 --> 00:29:44,535
We've evolved to take the form of our creators,
459
00:29:44,576 --> 00:29:47,454
built a city far grander than they ever achieved...
460
00:29:47,496 --> 00:29:51,500
yet for all this, we are still restricted
from reaching a pivotal point in our evolution.
461
00:29:51,542 --> 00:29:52,876
You want to ascend.
462
00:29:52,918 --> 00:29:54,086
Yes.
463
00:29:55,128 --> 00:29:58,632
Many among us, like Oberoth,
have no desire to experience this.
464
00:29:58,674 --> 00:30:00,759
They are content with our present state.
465
00:30:01,426 --> 00:30:04,513
But there are a few of us
who recognize that as a civilization,
466
00:30:04,555 --> 00:30:06,098
we are stagnant.
467
00:30:06,139 --> 00:30:08,308
We seek to continue our own evolution.
468
00:30:08,350 --> 00:30:11,728
To truly emulate the Ancients
and their ultimate achievement.
469
00:30:11,895 --> 00:30:13,856
Even though they betrayed you.
470
00:30:13,897 --> 00:30:15,691
They are our creators,
471
00:30:16,316 --> 00:30:19,820
and ascension is the final step to equaling them,
472
00:30:19,862 --> 00:30:21,613
to becoming one with them.
473
00:30:21,655 --> 00:30:22,906
No offense, but...
474
00:30:23,156 --> 00:30:25,117
how are a bunch of machines gonna do that?
475
00:30:25,158 --> 00:30:26,827
Are you so different?
476
00:30:26,910 --> 00:30:30,163
- Well, we're living, breathing people.
- Constructed from cells,
477
00:30:30,205 --> 00:30:34,042
consuming and burning energy,
governed by electrical impulses...
478
00:30:34,084 --> 00:30:35,627
I didn't say I could ascend.
479
00:30:35,669 --> 00:30:39,882
Metaphysical debates aside, what do you want from us?
We're not exactly ascension experts.
480
00:30:39,965 --> 00:30:42,551
Although we do know killing people
isn't the best way to get there.
481
00:30:42,718 --> 00:30:46,805
We realize this, and we have done much
to repress our violent nature,
482
00:30:47,014 --> 00:30:49,016
but yet it still remains within us.
483
00:30:49,391 --> 00:30:52,352
We believe this above all is what
has prevented us from ascending.
484
00:30:52,394 --> 00:30:53,729
What are you looking for, therapy?
485
00:30:53,770 --> 00:30:57,816
We want to rewrite our base code
to remove the directives for aggression.
486
00:30:57,858 --> 00:30:59,234
What's stopping you?
487
00:30:59,276 --> 00:31:03,405
The Ancients put in place measures
to prevent us from altering the code ourselves...
488
00:31:04,865 --> 00:31:06,366
but you can do it.
489
00:31:06,825 --> 00:31:07,492
Me?
490
00:31:07,534 --> 00:31:11,038
During our probe of your mind,
we learned that you are capable of doing this.
491
00:31:11,079 --> 00:31:13,165
Oh, that's funny. All I remember is the torture.
492
00:31:13,207 --> 00:31:16,668
- And what's in it for us?
- We will stop the others from attacking Atlantis.
493
00:31:16,710 --> 00:31:18,962
And we will help you in your fight against the Wraith.
494
00:31:19,004 --> 00:31:20,881
And Oberoth will agree to this?
495
00:31:20,923 --> 00:31:24,801
I believe Oberoth is attacking Atlantis
as a result of that programming.
496
00:31:24,968 --> 00:31:28,972
- If we can prove to him it can be altered...
- You think he'll see the light.
497
00:31:29,014 --> 00:31:29,973
Hallelujah.
498
00:31:30,015 --> 00:31:32,768
I'll do everything in my power to persuade him.
499
00:31:32,809 --> 00:31:34,186
Why should we trust you?
500
00:31:34,228 --> 00:31:36,522
Because we are willing to trust you.
501
00:31:36,730 --> 00:31:40,567
By extending this offer,
we are jeopardizing our very existence.
502
00:31:44,154 --> 00:31:46,698
I saw in you compassion, Dr. Weir.
503
00:31:46,823 --> 00:31:49,743
Someone who could come to understand our plight.
504
00:31:52,704 --> 00:31:53,789
Help us,
505
00:31:54,248 --> 00:31:55,874
and we will help you.
506
00:31:58,502 --> 00:32:00,254
When it comes right down to it,
507
00:32:01,255 --> 00:32:03,090
we don't have much of a choice.
508
00:32:11,682 --> 00:32:15,727
We're drawing closer to Atlantis.
Soon we will drop out of hyperspace.
509
00:32:20,607 --> 00:32:22,276
How's it coming, Rodney?
510
00:32:22,401 --> 00:32:23,569
Slowly.
511
00:32:23,610 --> 00:32:25,028
What's the hold-up?
512
00:32:25,571 --> 00:32:28,365
What's the hold-up?
Do you have any idea what I'm trying to do here?
513
00:32:28,407 --> 00:32:31,827
Niam gave you access to the program code,
and you're screwing around with it.
514
00:32:31,869 --> 00:32:33,579
Oh, that is so...
515
00:32:34,454 --> 00:32:35,998
relatively accurate.
516
00:32:36,582 --> 00:32:37,374
Thank you.
517
00:32:37,416 --> 00:32:40,085
Still, we're not dealing
with rock 'em sock 'em robots here.
518
00:32:40,127 --> 00:32:44,256
We're dealing with a complex code of over
three billion chemical base sequences.
519
00:32:44,298 --> 00:32:46,925
It's like trying to reconfigure the DNA double helix.
520
00:32:47,718 --> 00:32:49,136
Okay, so, what?
521
00:32:49,303 --> 00:32:50,304
Five minutes?
522
00:32:50,762 --> 00:32:54,683
It will be done when it is done,
and you applying pressure is not gonna...
523
00:32:57,186 --> 00:32:58,103
What?
524
00:32:58,395 --> 00:32:59,897
Gotta go. McKay out.
525
00:32:59,938 --> 00:33:01,273
Rodney, what's going on?
526
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:02,191
Rodney?
527
00:33:11,742 --> 00:33:13,035
- Did you do it?
- Yes, yes, yes.
528
00:33:13,076 --> 00:33:15,162
I have removed
the aggression directive from the base code.
529
00:33:15,204 --> 00:33:17,539
It is uploading to Niam as we speak, but
530
00:33:17,581 --> 00:33:20,209
I discovered something else,
nothing short of brilliant, I might add.
531
00:33:20,250 --> 00:33:20,959
What?
532
00:33:21,001 --> 00:33:21,835
Okay,
533
00:33:21,877 --> 00:33:24,838
even though these replicators
are each separate, functioning beings,
534
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:26,215
their basic command code
535
00:33:26,256 --> 00:33:28,842
is interconnected over a powerful subspace frequency.
536
00:33:28,884 --> 00:33:29,801
They have these...
537
00:33:29,843 --> 00:33:32,179
periodic collective program updates, or...
538
00:33:32,221 --> 00:33:34,848
"merges" they call them,
where they exchange new information.
539
00:33:34,890 --> 00:33:37,267
That's how Niam hopes
to distribute the new code to the others.
540
00:33:37,309 --> 00:33:38,143
Exactly,
541
00:33:38,185 --> 00:33:39,520
but while I was working on it,
542
00:33:39,561 --> 00:33:41,188
I figured out a way to create a glitch
543
00:33:41,230 --> 00:33:42,523
that, on my command,
544
00:33:42,564 --> 00:33:44,399
should momentarily freeze them.
545
00:33:44,441 --> 00:33:45,317
Should?
546
00:33:45,359 --> 00:33:47,653
Okay, will. I mean, dead in their tracks,
like hitting the pause button
547
00:33:47,694 --> 00:33:48,862
temporarily, until they
548
00:33:48,904 --> 00:33:50,989
- figure out how to override it.
- How long?
549
00:33:52,032 --> 00:33:53,909
Well, I don't know. That's why I said momentarily.
550
00:33:53,951 --> 00:33:55,619
Days? Hours? Minutes?
551
00:33:55,827 --> 00:33:57,996
Well, look, it's minutes, but I don't know.
That's what I was just saying to him!
552
00:33:58,038 --> 00:33:58,872
Ten? Twenty?
553
00:33:58,914 --> 00:34:00,374
Okay, fine. You want a number? Fine. Seven...
554
00:34:00,415 --> 00:34:02,084
Seven minutes and 31 seconds. Are you happy?
555
00:34:02,125 --> 00:34:03,168
- No.
- No.
556
00:34:03,210 --> 00:34:04,878
- That's not enough time.
- You wanted a number.
557
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:06,713
- A bigger number.
- Yeah, well, it may very well be longer.
558
00:34:06,755 --> 00:34:08,298
- Or shorter.
- I don't know.
559
00:34:08,340 --> 00:34:11,343
- Look, you're missing the point...
- Gentlemen, focus, please.
560
00:34:13,470 --> 00:34:15,639
Will that be enough time for us to escape?
561
00:34:15,681 --> 00:34:16,807
It'll have to be.
562
00:34:16,849 --> 00:34:19,768
Not much point in leaving without
blowing this place up first.
563
00:34:20,310 --> 00:34:21,603
How do we do that?
564
00:34:26,316 --> 00:34:27,693
Oh, that's me. Right.
565
00:34:27,734 --> 00:34:30,904
Surprise, surprise.
Why don't I just go on these missions by myself?
566
00:34:31,864 --> 00:34:33,615
I'll rig a ZedPM overload.
567
00:34:37,202 --> 00:34:40,581
What about Niam?
Are we not exploiting his trust?
568
00:34:40,622 --> 00:34:42,791
Even if he's able to honor his end of the deal,
569
00:34:42,833 --> 00:34:46,086
there's no guarantee he can stop
Oberoth from attacking Atlantis.
570
00:34:46,211 --> 00:34:48,589
We will offer him the chance to come with us,
571
00:34:49,590 --> 00:34:52,467
but we cannot leave this city intact.
572
00:35:07,524 --> 00:35:08,817
Are you sure this will work?
573
00:35:08,859 --> 00:35:10,819
Please. Of course it will work.
574
00:35:10,903 --> 00:35:13,363
- Why's it taking so long?
- Why do you always have to... Look
575
00:35:13,780 --> 00:35:15,699
I need to properly calibrate the frequencies.
576
00:35:15,741 --> 00:35:17,910
I wanna make sure that when
I freeze them I freeze them all. Okay?
577
00:35:17,951 --> 00:35:21,330
- All would be good.
- Just let me finish?
578
00:35:21,747 --> 00:35:23,040
Thank you.
579
00:35:25,083 --> 00:35:26,793
Okay. Here...
580
00:35:27,044 --> 00:35:28,128
here we go
581
00:35:28,170 --> 00:35:29,171
in five...
582
00:35:29,630 --> 00:35:30,672
four...
583
00:35:30,881 --> 00:35:31,924
three...
584
00:35:31,965 --> 00:35:33,008
two...
585
00:35:38,889 --> 00:35:40,682
Hey, it worked!
586
00:35:41,016 --> 00:35:42,184
Interesting.
587
00:35:43,727 --> 00:35:44,853
Okay.
588
00:35:45,062 --> 00:35:47,064
We should move to the ZPM room.
589
00:35:48,357 --> 00:35:49,816
Why isn't he frozen?
590
00:35:49,858 --> 00:35:51,109
His code's changed.
591
00:35:51,151 --> 00:35:54,530
Until he's distributed it to the others in the next
merge, he'll be different than the rest of them.
592
00:35:55,447 --> 00:35:57,115
What happened?
593
00:35:59,034 --> 00:35:59,993
What was that?
594
00:36:00,202 --> 00:36:03,121
- I think we just dropped out of hyperspace.
- We need to move.
595
00:36:03,914 --> 00:36:04,748
Come with us.
596
00:36:04,790 --> 00:36:06,208
I'll explain on the way.
597
00:36:12,297 --> 00:36:14,299
Now, Ronon, I could use...
598
00:36:17,094 --> 00:36:18,136
Thanks.
599
00:36:23,016 --> 00:36:25,102
You want me to go with you?
600
00:36:26,645 --> 00:36:28,480
You must understand our situation.
601
00:36:28,522 --> 00:36:32,150
- If you can't stop Oberoth...
- I said I would do everything in my power.
602
00:36:32,568 --> 00:36:34,903
But can you promise that you will succeed?
603
00:36:37,531 --> 00:36:41,827
Our lives and the lives of all of
our people are at stake here.
604
00:36:42,494 --> 00:36:44,496
You merge through a subspace connection.
Even if you're with us,
605
00:36:44,538 --> 00:36:47,124
you should be able to spread the
new code amongst the others.
606
00:36:48,709 --> 00:36:50,502
Come with us, Niam.
607
00:36:51,170 --> 00:36:53,964
Ascension is within your grasp.
608
00:36:54,548 --> 00:36:56,258
You can't turn back.
609
00:36:58,844 --> 00:37:00,804
- Damn.
- What is it?
610
00:37:00,846 --> 00:37:02,681
In order to do this,
I need to utilize all three ZedPMs.
611
00:37:02,723 --> 00:37:04,683
I was hoping to bring
at least one of them back with us.
612
00:37:04,766 --> 00:37:07,853
- Which you can't, we only have three minutes.
- Look, I already told you...
613
00:37:07,895 --> 00:37:09,021
never mind.
614
00:37:09,104 --> 00:37:11,398
I need an access code to remove the failsafes.
615
00:37:21,658 --> 00:37:22,576
Now...
616
00:37:22,993 --> 00:37:24,620
how about our weapons?
617
00:37:24,786 --> 00:37:26,788
We can recover them on the way.
618
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:43,180
Not so arrogant now, are you?
619
00:37:44,515 --> 00:37:45,349
McKay!
620
00:37:54,691 --> 00:37:55,692
Come on!
621
00:38:03,534 --> 00:38:05,619
So much for seven and a half minutes.
622
00:38:05,661 --> 00:38:07,788
Hey, it was an arbitrary number.
623
00:38:17,005 --> 00:38:18,465
Colonel Sheppard...
624
00:38:29,476 --> 00:38:30,435
Go!
625
00:38:40,487 --> 00:38:42,614
Ronon, set your gun to "kill."
626
00:38:43,365 --> 00:38:44,199
It is.
627
00:38:44,241 --> 00:38:45,951
- Okay, start the overload.
- What? No, no, no.
628
00:38:45,993 --> 00:38:47,828
Not yet. We need to be in a Jumper
or clear of the city, or...
629
00:38:47,870 --> 00:38:49,246
The Jumper bay's not far, we're almost there.
630
00:38:49,288 --> 00:38:51,832
No, you don't understand.
Look, I didn't want them to be able to stop it.
631
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:55,294
Look, as soon as I trigger the overload,
there'll be practically zero lag time before it blows.
632
00:38:55,335 --> 00:38:56,170
Practically?
633
00:38:56,211 --> 00:38:58,130
Okay, fine, a few seconds
for it to build up power...
634
00:38:58,172 --> 00:38:59,923
- How many seconds?
- I don't know.
635
00:38:59,965 --> 00:39:02,301
- Five? Ten?
- Again with the arbitrary numbers!
636
00:39:02,342 --> 00:39:03,427
We need to move.
637
00:39:03,468 --> 00:39:05,929
Ok. Start the overload.
Now!
638
00:39:08,390 --> 00:39:09,224
This way!
639
00:39:09,266 --> 00:39:10,350
What is that?
640
00:39:10,392 --> 00:39:12,978
The sound of the city about to blow! Move!
641
00:39:24,865 --> 00:39:27,284
Get that roof open, Rodney,
or this is gonna be a short trip.
642
00:39:27,326 --> 00:39:28,368
Don't wait for me!
643
00:39:28,410 --> 00:39:31,079
I'm just saying, if we can't get
out of the Jumper bay...
644
00:39:31,121 --> 00:39:32,789
It doesn't matter.
The overload's happening now.
645
00:39:32,831 --> 00:39:35,292
- We're about to explode.
- Is the roof open?
646
00:39:35,375 --> 00:39:36,418
Yes. Go.
647
00:40:02,528 --> 00:40:03,654
Nice work...
648
00:40:04,321 --> 00:40:05,697
all of you.
649
00:40:08,617 --> 00:40:09,868
Thank you.
650
00:40:13,872 --> 00:40:14,706
What's wrong?
651
00:40:16,416 --> 00:40:18,085
Something is happening.
652
00:40:19,628 --> 00:40:20,754
What is it?
653
00:40:22,297 --> 00:40:23,799
The others on my planet.
654
00:40:24,258 --> 00:40:25,843
They know what I've done.
655
00:40:26,343 --> 00:40:27,636
I'm being reset.
656
00:40:27,678 --> 00:40:29,513
Rodney, do something!
657
00:40:29,763 --> 00:40:31,640
It's too late. They're...
658
00:40:43,527 --> 00:40:45,320
That's not gonna hold him.
659
00:41:01,461 --> 00:41:03,463
I'm so sorry.
I had...I didn't...
660
00:41:08,677 --> 00:41:09,845
You okay?
661
00:41:11,388 --> 00:41:12,556
Yeah.
662
00:41:25,277 --> 00:41:26,695
How's it going?
663
00:41:26,945 --> 00:41:27,988
Still nothing.
664
00:41:28,030 --> 00:41:31,116
Either the Ancients chose to
purposefully conceal every record,
665
00:41:31,158 --> 00:41:32,242
extremely well, I might add,
666
00:41:32,326 --> 00:41:35,329
or they simply deleted them from the database.
I'm leaning towards the latter.
667
00:41:35,370 --> 00:41:37,039
Perhaps they think they've trully
destroyed them all.
668
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,541
Either that, or they didn't want
anyone to know they had failed.
669
00:41:39,583 --> 00:41:40,417
Again.
670
00:41:40,459 --> 00:41:43,420
There is nothing more annoying than people
that won't admit their own mistakes.
671
00:41:45,130 --> 00:41:46,131
True.
672
00:41:56,225 --> 00:41:59,394
McKay and Zelenka are scouring
the database for any information...
673
00:41:59,436 --> 00:42:00,938
so far, not much...
674
00:42:01,188 --> 00:42:03,482
as in nothing.
675
00:42:04,650 --> 00:42:06,151
These replicators...
676
00:42:06,193 --> 00:42:10,155
they're probably already at work building
themselves another Atlantis.
677
00:42:10,864 --> 00:42:12,658
Now they know all about us.
678
00:42:15,410 --> 00:42:18,539
Well, we beat them this time.
Maybe we scared them off.
679
00:42:19,831 --> 00:42:20,916
Yeah.
680
00:42:21,875 --> 00:42:23,210
Maybe.
