{288}{374}(Carter) In the five weeks|since our return from PX7-941 ...
{378}{426}Known to its population as Madrona.
{430}{494}..we've processed|most of the data we collected.
{497}{591}We think we've corroborated|some startling first-hand observations.
{595}{649}- Which are?|- Well, sir,...
{653}{738}..the inhabitants can proactively|affect their own climate.
{742}{806}That's a bit of an understatement!
{810}{903}They can call it up...|just like... that.
{907}{956}(Daniel) You got a crop that needs water?
{960}{1008}Order some rain.
{1012}{1090}It needs sun, it's literally|a matter of dialling it up.
{1094}{1166}Are you sure you weren't|under the local voodoo?
{1170}{1242}Believe me, General,|no one was more sceptical than I.
{1246}{1338}But we may have stumbled on|the most important piece of technology...
{1342}{1398}..the SGC mission has discovered to date.
{1430}{1482}Even the Goa'uld|have no such technology.
{1486}{1529}You think you know how they do it?
{1533}{1620}Our best theory is that the planet|was terraformed about 900 years ago.
{1624}{1739}The Madronans are primitive, so it's likely|it was terraformed by another alien race.
{1743}{1807}The weather seems to be|regulated by this device.
{1811}{1872}(Daniel) The Madronans|call it the Touchstone.
{1876}{1980}It's an ancient artefact, probably|made by the other alien race.
{2008}{2084}It's right there. It's in the statue's hand.
{2088}{2154}The high priest turns|a series of calibrated rings,...
{2158}{2225}..which seem to determine|meteorological conditions.
{2229}{2288}Do we have any idea what makes it tick?
{2292}{2346}That's why we'd like to go back, sir.
{2350}{2480}Carter wants to get a closer look with|some of her specialised... doohickeys.
{2484}{2522}Doohickeys?!
{2526}{2599}I believe that's the technical term, sir!
{2625}{2705}My instruments will measure|the Touchstone's emissions...
{2709}{2751}..and give us an idea of how it works.
{2755}{2817}Any chance we could|borrow it for a few days,...
{2821}{2872}..do a little backward engineering?
{2876}{2952}The Touchstone maintains|the weather on this planet.
{2956}{3004}Right.
{3025}{3098}OK, then. Go see what you can figure out.
{3153}{3183}OK.
{3513}{3549}Greetings, Roham.
{3553}{3613}Princess La Moor.
{3651}{3748}- It's the visitors, Uncle.|- We demand you return the Touchstone!
{3777}{3819}What? I-It's missing?
{3823}{3897}Do not play games.|You must return it at once!
{3924}{3978}No games. We didn't take it.
{3982}{4073}It is gone! Come! See for yourselves!
{4077}{4125}(thunder)
{5118}{5171}This explains the storm clouds out there.
{5175}{5226}Without the Touchstone to shield us,...
{5230}{5299}..we shall soon be overtaken|by the elements.
{5303}{5406}It's only a matter of time before|we begin to die because of your theft.
{5410}{5449}(O'Neill) All right.
{5453}{5501}Here's a question for you.
{5505}{5580}If it was so important,|why wasn't it guarded?
{5584}{5667}It was guarded. We let down our guard|because of your people.
{5671}{5749}- We trusted you.|- We did not take it!
{5753}{5843}Had we taken the artefact,|there would have been no need to return.
{5847}{5893}There were witnesses.
{5897}{5943}What did these witnesses see?
{5947}{6015}People taking the Touchstone|in the dead of night.
{6019}{6106}They were dressed as you are|and carried weapons like yours.
{6132}{6224}- Did they see where these people went?|- They left by your Stargate.
{6267}{6345}As you know, none of our people|know how to use the portal.
{6455}{6505}Guards! Disarm the wrongdoers!
{6509}{6560}Hold it!
{6680}{6728}All right!
{6732}{6780}We came here in peace,...
{6807}{6884}..we expect to go in one... piece.
{6888}{6938}Explain yourself. But be warned.
{6942}{7019}If your answers are not satisfactory,...
{7023}{7100}..then we have no choice|but to seek retribution.
{7104}{7194}Taking revenge will not return|the Touchstone, for we did not take it.
{7198}{7252}Then it will lead us to those that did.
{7256}{7313}Only if they care what happens to us!
{7349}{7435}Look, let me give you|a little life lesson about thieves.
{7439}{7521}They're not really in touch|with their feminine side.
{7525}{7579}Caring would be on a low priority...
{7597}{7653}My uncle grows impatient.
{7688}{7746}If the thieves used the gate to escape,...
{7750}{7832}..the only hope to get it back|is to let us go back through the gate.
{7836}{7877}And if they did come from Earth,...
{7881}{7962}..our technology can help us|find out who the thieves were.
{7966}{8072}How do we know that you will not|use the gate to escape responsibility?
{8076}{8122}Trust us?
{8126}{8182}(La Moor)|We are a simple people, Colonel.
{8186}{8263}We have no means to protect|ourselves from this disaster.
{8267}{8393}If my uncle decides to trust you, our|entire future will depend on that decision.
{8439}{8510}OK, that's a little pressure!|But we can handle that.
{8514}{8542}(thunderclap)
{8832}{8874}Let them go.
{9099}{9165}Please... help us.
{9169}{9217}(thunderclap)
{10993}{11101}Why are you back so early? You were|supposed to study that weather device.
{11105}{11153}We would do, if it were still there.
{11157}{11191}What do you mean?
{11195}{11267}We should talk in your office, sir.
{11322}{11370}What's this about, Colonel?
{11498}{11546}The Touchstone was stolen, sir.
{11550}{11669}By people wearing SGC uniforms,|who came and went through the Stargate.
{11673}{11738}What?! Well, who was it?
{11819}{11893}Everyone involved here|would like to know that, sir.
{11950}{12021}I don't appreciate|your implication, Colonel.
{12025}{12122}Why would I send your team to study|the thing if I knew it wasn't there?
{12126}{12174}No implication intended, sir.
{12198}{12301}But circumstances do beg|the next logical question, which is...
{12305}{12405}..could another SG team|have gone through without your order?
{12443}{12491}Not without my knowing about it.
{12517}{12565}Yes, sir.
{12616}{12720}General, do you mind if I have Carter|recheck the dialling computer?
{12724}{12854}Just to see if there are any signs of|anyone sneaking through the gate...
{12858}{12902}..covertly.
{12930}{12980}Behind your back, as it were, sir.
{13015}{13116}Nothing happens regarding that Stargate|without my knowing about it.
{13120}{13180}If a person sneezes near it, I get a report.
{13245}{13288}I understand, sir.
{13395}{13428}Colonel.
{13511}{13575}Have Carter check it anyway.
{13676}{13724}Thank you... very much, sir.
{14080}{14150}- (O'Neill) Anything yet?|- Not on the Touchstone, sir.
{14154}{14204}Have you seen the Weather Channel?
{14208}{14258}I'm more of a C-SPAN guy.
{14262}{14319}Observe, O'Neill.
{14323}{14423}(woman) Chalk it up to a delayed|El Niņo effect orjust a run of bad luck,...
{14427}{14495}..but more storms|have stretched all over America,...
{14499}{14568}..even in Phoenix, Arizona,|causing widespread damage.
{14572}{14646}Reports of injuries are still trickling in.
{14650}{14698}We have flooding in Palm Springs...
{14702}{14755}(Daniel) And that's not all.
{14759}{14843}There's record rainfall in Albuquerque,|hail in the Panhandle...
{14847}{14895}..and three major rivers cresting.
{14899}{14998}Something is definitely|altering this planet's weather.
{15002}{15055}And you think it's this Touchstone?
{15092}{15185}- Kind of a reach, isn't it?|- Not really, if you think about it.
{15189}{15240}Whoever left that device on Madrona...
{15244}{15310}..probably keyed it to|its atmospheric conditions.
{15314}{15398}Somebody brings it back to Earth,|starts fiddling around with it...
{15402}{15454}..and... who knows?!
{15458}{15547}- We don't know it's on Earth.|- (Carter) I'm thinking it is.
{15551}{15618}There was a huge transitory glitch|three days ago,...
{15622}{15667}..when SG-2 returned from a mission.
{15671}{15726}The same hour|as the Touchstone was taken.
{15730}{15799}SG-2's point of origin|was galaxies away from Madrona.
{15803}{15872}Yeah, but this energy spike|is off the charts.
{15876}{15980}Remember what happened the last time|the gate's power supply was overloaded?
{15984}{16055}It jumped to the second gate|in the Antarctic.
{16059}{16095}Thanks for the memory!
{16099}{16207}Are you suggesting that SG-2 used|the second gate to steal the Touchstone?
{16211}{16295}No. Not SG-2. Their mission|went as planned, through our gate.
{16299}{16423}But someone might have used the second|gate a split second after SG-2 used ours...
{16427}{16486}..to try to hide the energy spike in ours.
{16490}{16563}Kind of like shooting off a gun|when a train's going by?
{16643}{16705}To hide the sound.
{16709}{16757}Yes, sir.
{16761}{16858}If I'm right, SG-2's log should have|the same electronic signature...
{16862}{16952}..as the last time the wormhole|jumped its tracks. Bear with me.
{16956}{16995}Bearing.
{17076}{17144}Damn! It should show up|on the primary meta-log.
{17148}{17220}- Try the backup log.|- Yeah. Possibly.
{17386}{17455}If someone did try to erase|all the relevant data,...
{17459}{17511}..they could've easily missed a backup.
{17587}{17637}Yes! There it is.
{17695}{17794}The second gate hadto have been used.|The energy signature's identical.
{17798}{17915}Who was authorised to use it? I thought|it had been officially decommissioned.
{17919}{17967}It was.
{17971}{18024}Officially.
{18193}{18241}- (tap on door)|- Come.
{18326}{18374}No. I need to talk to him now.
{18402}{18466}Son, do you know|what colour this phone is?
{18501}{18549}Yes. I'll hold.
{18560}{18603}Carter find anything?
{18639}{18717}Yes, sir. Apparently,|the second gate is being used.
{18721}{18827}What?! I was given top-level assurances|that gate was to be sealed.
{18831}{18932}A case of the left hand not knowing|what the right foot is doing, sir?
{18936}{18988}That's what I'm trying to find out.
{19040}{19088}No! It can't wait, son.
{19092}{19178}Well, make sure he gets the message|the second he comes out.
{19270}{19342}And, suddenly,|the President wasn't available!
{19346}{19394}Every time I call, he's tied up.
{19398}{19490}It's like someone is orchestrating|his schedule to keep us from speaking.
{19494}{19542}Got a someone in mind, sir?
{19585}{19644}This is gonna sound paranoid, Colonel.
{19648}{19704}Back when the SG programme began,...
{19708}{19785}..there was a philosophical skirmish|about its mandate.
{19789}{19891}Some people wanted to make sure that|all discoveries were brought back,...
{19895}{19986}..regardless of considerations|like interplanetary diplomacy.
{20040}{20119}Do you mind if I ask|who these "some people" were?
{20123}{20212}The truth is, I'm not sure|I ever fully knew who they were.
{20245}{20341}I had a feeling that someone chose|not to surface during the debate.
{20345}{20459}Not military - politicians|pulling strings behind the scenes.
{20481}{20529}No one said so exactly.
{20533}{20614}30 years in the service,|you develop an instinct about things.
{20644}{20703}General, is your gut telling you...
{20707}{20791}..that this "person" is responsible|for stealing the Touchstone?
{20795}{20862}I'm a long way|from drawing that conclusion.
{20866}{20994}But I'll be damned if I'll be blocked|by some sycophant in the White House.
{20997}{21081}I have other channels I can pursue,|markers I can call in.
{21099}{21135}General,...
{21139}{21195}..I know I don't have to tell you this.
{21199}{21260}But whoever these dark-side guys are,...
{21290}{21399}..they can do some pretty nasty damage|if they figure out how to work this thing.
{21428}{21520}I know, Colonel. I know.|Let me do some digging.
{21640}{21735}In an effort to determine whether|the Touchstone was being used,...
{21739}{21840}..I measured the Doppler shift for|gravitational and radiation emissions.
{21844}{21947}I used one of my monitoring instruments,|and tied it in to two NOAA satellites.
{21951}{22039}- What did you find?|- It's somewhere in the Nevada Desert.
{22043}{22113}- From the crude triangulation...|- Nevada?
{22139}{22188}Yes, sir. Something wrong?
{22223}{22307}The second gate ended up|in Nevada, didn't it, sir? Nellis?
{22311}{22341}Yes.
{22384}{22491}If the gate is there, it makes sense that|the Touchstone has at least been there.
{22561}{22609}You're going to love this, Colonel.
{22643}{22702}Guess who just got reassigned to Nellis.
{22736}{22774}Do tell.
{22778}{22844}Colonel Maybourne.
{22848}{22896}Oh, well, here's good news!
{22900}{23002}Nellis is where we send the technology|we bring back through the gate?
{23006}{23048}Yes. The Groom Lake facility.
{23052}{23099}Area 51 .
{23338}{23415}- What are we looking at?|- We sent the MALP back to Madrona.
{23419}{23512}It's basically a blizzard, sir -|winds gusting up to 80 miles an hour.
{23516}{23588}Any more intense,|the whole planet's a write-off.
{23618}{23676}How much time do they have remaining?
{23680}{23785}If my extrapolations are correct,|we're looking at 48 to 72 hours...
{23789}{23861}..before all the terraforming is kaput.
{23865}{24007}- Permission to take a trip to Nevada, sir.|- OK. I'll call Nellis and get you cleared.
{24044}{24092}Uh, General,...
{24118}{24222}..it's become pretty obvious that|our own people are involved here.
{24226}{24274}The government types, you know.
{24278}{24327}How do you know who to trust?
{24331}{24387}We have the necessary|clearance level, sir.
{24561}{24656}Colonel, I need some documents|delivered to the Groom Lake facility.
{24717}{24772}Are those documents sensitive enough...
{24776}{24842}..to warrant a three-man team|with a Jaffa escort?
{24846}{24880}Absolutely.
{25314}{25400}Colonel O'Neill. Major Reynolds, NlD.|Welcome to Area 51 .
{25404}{25513}Nice to meet you. This is Captain Carter,|Dr Jackson and Teal'c.
{25517}{25559}Gentlemen. Ma'am.
{25563}{25654}I can't tell you what an honour it is|to meet you. You guys are a legend.
{25678}{25786}Yeah, well... Thanks. We're hoping|to meet with Colonel Maybourne.
{25790}{25864}He's been paged, sir.|Come inside - he'll find you there.
{25868}{25914}(Daniel) You obviously know who we are.
{25918}{26012}If it wasn't for you and the other|SG teams, we'd be out of business here.
{26016}{26072}Follow me, please.
{26076}{26130}To your left is Medical Research.
{26134}{26246}They're focusing on the potential cure|for Alzheimer's that SG-5 brought back.
{26250}{26343}The other side is Geology,|Space Metallurgy, and Artefacts Study,...
{26347}{26448}..where they're poring over your notes|on that Heliopolis place, Dr Jackson.
{26452}{26520}"Meaning of life stuff" - I love that!
{26524}{26633}(Tannoy) Dr Dobson to room 483.|Dr Dobson.
{27176}{27291}Those are the two Goa'uld death gliders|you were in after you did your hero thing.
{27295}{27352}Nice work, by the way.
{27356}{27394}Yeah. Thanks.
{27458}{27516}This way.
{27722}{27770}This is the Bio-research Lab.
{27875}{27937}Is this where you keep|the little green men?
{27985}{28041}There are no alien life forms at Area 51 .
{28142}{28193}Present company excluded, of course.
{28300}{28334}Colonel O'Neill.
{28338}{28389}Hello, Maybourne.
{28423}{28471}Major, if you'll excuse us.
{28558}{28628}Teal'c! It's good to see you're well.
{28723}{28824}In my culture, I would be well within|my rights to dismember you.
{29022}{29097}Well... that's interesting.
{29140}{29186}Is there something I can do for you?
{29190}{29262}Yeah. We assume|the Touchstone was brought here.
{29266}{29309}Excuse me?
{29313}{29371}Maybe you have a different name for it?
{29375}{29472}The weather controller|from Madrona - PX7-941?
{29476}{29561}It seems that someone has sent you|on a fool's errand, Colonel.
{29565}{29629}There is nothing|even remotely like that here.
{29633}{29692}You are, however, aware of our mission?
{29720}{29768}I remember a reference to it.
{29790}{29889}But - correct me if I'm wrong -|nothing came back from that survey.
{29893}{29980}- Not by our team.|- Another SGC team?
{29984}{30022}You tell me.
{30055}{30170}If you're looking for specific answers,|be less cryptic with your questions.
{30174}{30247}Fine. Where's the damn Touchstone?
{30282}{30342}Has the second Stargate been activated?
{30346}{30419}It's been under complete lockdown|since its arrival here.
{30423}{30471}It hasn't even been powered up.
{30494}{30534}Mind if we have a look?
{30538}{30609}I guarantee it's been dormant|since you came through it.
{30613}{30704}Then there's no harm|in taking a look. Is there?
{31317}{31390}There it is. Happy now, Colonel?
{31394}{31442}(O'Neill) Carter.
{32182}{32257}- Satisfied?|- Not really.
{32292}{32379}Just proves it got packed up|real nice after it was used.
{32383}{32475}That gate has been in there since|it was brought here from the Antarctic.
{32506}{32559}Come on, Harry!
{32563}{32635}You and I have been through|this dance before.
{32639}{32672}Uh,...
{32676}{32724}..Colonel.
{32728}{32777}This gate is plastic.
{32781}{32826}What?!
{32864}{32912}Captain Carter is correct.
{32916}{32959}That's ridiculous!
{33240}{33319}That's the gate that was|brought back from the Antarctic.
{33323}{33389}It's been under lock and key|since it got here.
{33442}{33518}This gate's plastic. Where's the real one?
{33748}{33839}So... what the hell|happened to the Stargate?
{33843}{33877}It's obviously been moved.
{33881}{33937}So it can be fired up|without raising eyebrows?
{33941}{33980}That's highly speculative.
{34068}{34154}I don't know who's|giving you orders, Maybourne,...
{34158}{34252}..but they had better come from|where the air is real thin.
{34308}{34354}Is that a threat, Colonel?
{34358}{34433}You tell me the punishment|for losing a Stargate.
{34485}{34587}That presumes there was|no authorisation to move the Stargate.
{34626}{34700}- So who authorised it?|- That's classified.
{34704}{34799}- We have the highest clearance.|- Within the military, you do.
{34967}{35015}Are you telling me...
{35019}{35071}..this is a civilian operation?!
{35166}{35248}Colonel O'Neill and his people|need an escort back to their vehicle.
{35252}{35382}- Who's pulling the strings, Maybourne?|- Take a piece of advice, Jack. Let it drop.
{35386}{35434}Drop it?!
{35460}{35560}Please... don't make these gentlemen|have to get disrespectful.
{36387}{36452}We're operating under a virtual blackout.
{36456}{36508}No one will confirm or deny a thing.
{36512}{36640}The only other Stargate on the planet gets|spirited away, and it's business as usual?!
{36643}{36748}Not really. Somebody's clamped down|on the communications channels.
{36752}{36822}- What of the Touchstone?|- Sometime while we were gone,...
{36826}{36877}..my instrument readings dropped to zero.
{36881}{36951}They've stopped using it,|or are shielding it from detection.
{36955}{37019}(Carter) The weather anomalies|have abated on Earth.
{37022}{37135}They probably realised experimenting|with it was causing too many problems.
{37139}{37183}Exactly.
{37187}{37294}If we can't track the Touchstone, we may|be able to track the second gate on Earth.
{37298}{37421}Oh, sure! Let's just put out an APB for|a huge, honkin', two-storey metal ring...
{37425}{37513}..with 39 little pictures|all nicely engraved on it!
{37517}{37581}Actually, I had another thought.
{37585}{37643}Go ahead, Captain.
{37647}{37690}We use our gate to go to Madrona,...
{37694}{37775}..then do a 180 and return|through the second gate here on Earth.
{37779}{37870}If one input the Earth's coordinates|on the Madrona dialling device,...
{37874}{37938}..he would be sent back|to the gate on this facility.
{37941}{38036}You would. Unless you intentionally|overpower the gate.
{38040}{38132}The way the wormhole arced|to send the two of you to the other gate.
{38136}{38248}As you may recall, it was a minor miracle|that either of you survived that incident.
{38252}{38306}What if we used the MALP robot?
{38310}{38425}Perfect. The GPS could give us an exact|position once the MALP made it through.
{38429}{38499}Someone would have to|accompany you to Madrona,...
{38503}{38551}..to dial the correct address.
{38555}{38649}- Uh... I would be that person.|- I'll go, too.
{38653}{38736}Bring the necessary equipment|to modulate the power to the gate.
{38752}{38790}Let's do it!
{39219}{39284}They've arrived|through the Madrona gate, sir.
{39288}{39352}We're transporting our people|across the galaxy...
{39356}{39415}..to find something|we lost in our own back yard!
{39419}{39478}Incredible!
{39515}{39563}(thunderclaps)
{39742}{39790}They're back, Uncle Roham!
{39834}{39942}- Did you bring the Touchstone?|- Not yet. We're working on it.
{39946}{39994}Don't you understand?!
{39998}{40079}Look around you!|The rivers have turned to ice!
{40083}{40165}Before long, all our croplands|will be decimated!
{40169}{40207}Why did you return?
{40211}{40311}We have to set this machine from here|to track the Touchstone.
{40315}{40383}- You're lying!|- We're not lying!
{40387}{40434}We really are trying to help.
{40438}{40486}Come now!
{40940}{40988}(machine buzzes)
{41304}{41361}They should be inputting the last address.
{41507}{41555}(machine powers up)
{42025}{42086}Status, Captain?
{42090}{42173}- It's through, sir. It's on Earth.|- Where the hell is it?
{42177}{42236}I'm switching over to|terrestrial video signal.
{42240}{42333}- We have visual, but it's dark.|- Can you make out anything?
{42337}{42396}No, not much.
{42486}{42553}- There's somebody moving.|- What is its location?
{42557}{42645}I'm resetting the MALP global|positioning system to Telsat 1 3,...
{42649}{42703}..attempting to triangulate.
{42856}{42950}- What the hell happened?!|- They blew it away, sir.
{43201}{43249}(O'Neill) Carter?
{43253}{43310}The link is gone.|They destroyed the MALP.
{43314}{43412}- Did you get the coordinates?|- No time. But I've got it narrowed down.
{43416}{43456}How far down?
{43482}{43566}Well, as far as I can tell,|it's in Southern Utah.
{43596}{43656}Oh! Well... Southern Utah!
{43660}{43710}Well, at least that's a start.
{43714}{43796}I have one last marker to call.|Let me see what I can find out.
{44010}{44062}- Hello, General.|- Whitlow.
{44066}{44114}(Whitlow) Shall we walk?
{44118}{44231}As I told you on the phone, I don't have|time for all this cloak-and-dagger stuff.
{44235}{44291}- I need to know...|- Please... walk.
{44295}{44357}It makes it harder for the parabolics.
{44402}{44488}(Hammond) Glad to see the paranoia|quotient is as high as ever!
{44492}{44576}You never know who's listening.|What do you need to know?
{44580}{44680}Two things. Who's got the Stargate?|Who's got the weather device?
{44684}{44803}- I wish I had that info.|- I don't have time for games, Whitlow.
{44807}{44906}As much as I'd love to clear|our little IOU, I don't know anything.
{44910}{45008}I don't even know what you're talking|about with regards to a weather device.
{45012}{45067}But are you saying|the Stargate is missing?!
{45071}{45164}- The second one is, yes.|- That doesn't sound like a good thing!
{45168}{45239}Come on! You've got|your fingers in every agency.
{45243}{45340}You haven't heard anything?|Military intelligence? NSA? CIA?
{45344}{45437}If it were military, I'd know about it.|It's got to be civilian.
{45441}{45496}Anything strange going on at Nellis?
{45500}{45605}There's always something going on|at Nellis, and most of the time it's strange.
{45609}{45692}But nothing about a Stargate|or a... weather... thingy.
{45696}{45784}Does this have something to do|with all the weird weather lately?
{45824}{45895}How about Southern Utah?|Anything going on there?
{45899}{45947}Southern Utah?!
{45981}{46029}Yeah, as a matter of fact.
{46033}{46086}A requisition just crossed my desk...
{46090}{46209}..requesting a C-5 for a classified pick-up|at an NID landing site. It's in Utah.
{46213}{46266}Hm. No idea what it's for?
{46287}{46383}Not officially. But I don't have to|tell you, a C-5's a big airplane.
{46387}{46485}Big enough to hold a Stargate and|transport it anywhere in the world.
{46489}{46537}Where's the strip?
{46578}{46669}Just south of the Black Mountains.|About 40 clicks west of Parowan.
{46719}{46767}Thank you, Whitlow.
{46771}{46810}George?
{46879}{46923}Does this mean we're even?
{46950}{47010}If it pans out, it does.
{47112}{47160}OK, here's the deal.
{47164}{47238}This NID landing strip|doesn't officially exist,...
{47242}{47313}..so I don't think|there's a jurisdictional issue.
{47317}{47430}But even if there is, that C-5 is Air Force|property, and it is our jurisdiction.
{47434}{47499}- Can we go now, sir?|- There's a chopper waiting.
{47503}{47594}It will take you to Hill Air Force Base.|Then you're on your own.
{47598}{47631}Thank you.
{47635}{47683}One other thing, Colonel.
{47687}{47796}We don't know if the people who took|the gate and Touchstone are friend or foe.
{47800}{47904}Therefore, under no conditions|are you to fire on them. Understood?
{48013}{48072}Under no conditions... fire.
{48076}{48106}That's right.
{48163}{48216}What if they fire on us, sir?
{48220}{48350}Then you're to take cover. Do not return|fire unless it's the only option remaining...
{48354}{48415}- ..to defend yourselves.|- I don't think...
{48419}{48515}Those are my orders, Colonel. We're|already going way out on a limb on this.
{48519}{48615}I don't want you killing another American|who may just be following orders.
{48619}{48694}- Understood?|- Yes, sir.
{50604}{50668}(airplane approaches)
{52021}{52066}Stand to, gentlemen!
{52084}{52122}(guns click)
{52126}{52195}Keep those hands visible.
{52232}{52283}Who the hell are you?!
{52287}{52371}No one's damn business!|Step away from the crate.
{53112}{53160}(pulsing noise)
{53380}{53415}Stop!
{53732}{53764}Don't do it!
{53923}{53950}Agh!
{53954}{53991}What?
{54050}{54098}I missed the address.
{54327}{54375}At least we have this.
{54908}{54980}They've come back, Uncle Roham!|Just as I told you!
{54984}{55058}- Do they have the Touchstone?|- They do!
{57233}{57341}- Thank you.|- You're very welcome.
{57377}{57442}We hope your faith and trust in us|has been restored.
{57446}{57566}You have lived up to your promises.|Let there be peace between our worlds.
{57570}{57616}We must remain vigilant,...
{57620}{57688}..lest those that trespassed before|come back...
{57692}{57759}..to violate the sanctity|of the Holy Touchstone.
{57763}{57847}Just make sure your guards|are paying attention this time!
{57891}{57955}Blessings be upon you.
{58979}{59057}Everything should be back to normal|soon, here and on Madrona.
{59061}{59148}We think they'll let us return|to do the studies we'd hoped to do.
{59152}{59256}- Any idea what happened, sir?|- It's still something of a shell game.
{59260}{59333}- The investigation was taken from me.|- By whom?
{59337}{59399}I'm still trying to find that out.
{59403}{59482}So we may never know who those men|were who went through the gate.
{59486}{59538}Not unless you can tell me|where they went.
{59584}{59654}Until then, all SG units|are to be on watch...
{59658}{59730}..for four NID guys|wandering around another planet.
{59734}{59824}Great! So all this|could happen again, huh?
{59828}{59876}No, Colonel!
{59880}{59991}This time, I was able to ensure that|our Stargate will be the only one in use.
{59995}{60082}Sir... The second Stargate|is being retired?
{60086}{60183}Yes. Only this time, there will be|a permanent iris welded over it,...
{60187}{60265}..and it will be placed under|round-the-clock guard...
{60269}{60328}..under the command of the SGC -|my command.
{60332}{60394}No lying and deceit, smoke and mirrors?
{60398}{60531}You'll be there yourselves - all of you will|- when we put it away for good.
{61278}{61329}This put you out of a job, Maybourne?
{61352}{61450}Oh, you'd be surprised. Strange things|happen in high places, Colonel.
{61454}{61497}Don't I know it!
{61501}{61565}People get reassigned. So does property.
{61568}{61640}Artefacts get misplaced. Orders change.
{61644}{61692}Every day's a new day.
