{167}{233}Previously on "Stargate SG-1"...
{374}{444}- What is it?|- You tell me.
{469}{574}"Under no circumstances|go to P4C-970, Colonel Jack O'Neill."
{576}{668}- This looks like your handwriting.|- That is my handwriting.
{671}{780}- And it's my signature.|- That looks like blood, sir.
{783}{874}I want P4C-970 removed from|the dialling computer immediately.
{877}{939}I wonder why you sent it.
{943}{992}I wonder when.
{1246}{1296}Welcome back, SG-1 .
{1299}{1379}Break out the fishing gear, General!|Our job here is done.
{1401}{1481}- I take it your mission was successful?|- In a word, sir, yes.
{1484}{1558}In two words, yes, sir.
{1561}{1644}Your report said the Volians|were a simple agrarian society.
{1655}{1725}- That they are.|- They introduced us to another race.
{1727}{1824}Who, while lacking a sense of humour,|make up for it in advanced technology.
{1826}{1898}They just wanted to make sure|we were trustworthy first.
{1900}{1991}Long story short, I think we just|carried out our standing orders, sir.
{1994}{2072}Indeed. We may have found|a race both willing and capable
{2075}{2153}of defending this world|against the Goa'uld.
{2155}{2248}- If that outburst didn't convince you...|- I'm convinced.
{2251}{2334}We just wrapped up several hours|of talks with a guy named...
{2337}{2428}- Borren.|- Who really lacks a sense of humour.
{2431}{2516}But he wants the negotiations|to move up to the state level.
{2519}{2655}Well done. While I inform the president,|you prepare a mission briefing.
{2657}{2716}Yes, sir.
{2719}{2793}By the way,|what do our new friends call themselves?
{2796}{2864}The Aschen, sir.|They're called the Aschen.
{4435}{4529}So, out of security concerns,|the Aschen wish not to reveal the location
{4532}{4606}of their home world|until we have an agreement.
{4609}{4712}- They're a little paranoid.|- Appropriate, as they don't have an iris.
{4715}{4796}We do know they've created|a secondary star in the Volian system
{4799}{4890}by igniting a gas giant, thereby|doubling the Volians' growing season.
{4893}{4942}They made a star? How?
{4950}{5063}Well, theoretically, by increasing the|density of a sufficiently massive gas giant
{5066}{5124}until a thermonuclear reaction took place.
{5127}{5203}- In fact, Arthur C Clarke posited...|- Ambassador.
{5206}{5324}You gotta be careful about using the word|"how" unless you really wanna know.
{5334}{5385}My mistake, Colonel.
{5388}{5468}My point is, the achievement|itself goes a long way to prove
{5471}{5541}the Aschen are advanced|enough to take on the Goa'uld.
{5543}{5592}The Aschen could be formidable allies.
{5595}{5673}If they're Stargate capable,|why haven't we heard of 'em?
{5675}{5786}Good question. They only use their ships|to go to planets in their confederation.
{5789}{5839}Of which the Volian system is a part.
{5842}{5935}Yes. Borren said the Aschen and Volian|gates were discovered buried, like ours.
{5938}{5977}No DHD was ever recovered.
{5980}{6054}The Aschen tried dialling|numerous symbol combinations,
{6056}{6153}but without a DHD to compensate for|stellar drift, they were stuck, like us.
{6156}{6211}- We could only go to Abydos.|- Exactly.
{6214}{6282}Only after Daniel found|the cartouche on Abydos
{6285}{6382}could we make the drift calculations|to successfully dial other planets.
{6384}{6483}Add the database Colonel O'Neill|retrieved from the library of the Ancients...
{6485}{6605}We can offer access to a galaxy of worlds|and races the Aschen never knew existed.
{6608}{6670}The news must have|come as a shock to them.
{6673}{6726}Oh, not really.
{6729}{6813}Jack is saying that if they were surprised,|they'd never show it.
{6816}{6872}They don't get excited in general,|General.
{6875}{6936}It's like an entire planet of accountants.
{6959}{7011}Colonel O'Neill mistrusts the Aschen.
{7014}{7063}- I didn't say that.|- Indeed you did.
{7066}{7094}No, I didn't.
{7097}{7212}What I said was I didn't trust|people without a sense of humour.
{7215}{7264}- Especially that boring guy.|- Borren.
{7267}{7321}I know his name. He was boring.
{7324}{7452}The Aschen have agreed to meet|our representative on P3A-194 tomorrow.
{7475}{7526}Colonel O'Neill and Major Carter
{7529}{7610}are to be available|to the ambassador as consultants.
{7619}{7668}- Yes, sir.|- Dr Jackson,
{7671}{7741}I'd like you and Teal'c|to confer with the Volians.
{7744}{7804}Find out how they feel about the Aschen.
{7809}{7866}- I can tell you that now, sir.|- Dig deeper.
{7869}{7959}Find out from the Volians if the Aschen|are the good neighbours they seem to be.
{7962}{8017}You'll embark at 0700. Gentlemen?
{8150}{8245}Major Carter? Since we're trading|knowledge of the Stargate,
{8248}{8342}I could probably use a little more|of that knowledge myself.
{8345}{8399}After you, Ambassador.
{8541}{8638}- This place never ceases to amaze me.|- Anything yet?
{8640}{8731}The computer should have it down|to a handful of candidates by tomorrow.
{8734}{8783}- Candidates?|- Yeah.
{8786}{8874}We're trying to determine|the location of the Aschen home planet.
{8877}{8928}How can you, without the coordinates?
{8931}{8988}- How?|- Oh, I asked that question again.
{9022}{9115}In my early work with the Stargate|programme, I theorised that
{9118}{9239}the limit for a lock between two Stargates|without a DHD was 300 light years.
{9242}{9296}We are searching for viable coordinates
{9299}{9392}within that radius|of the Volian system, P3A-194.
{9395}{9506}- As the Aschen world is in this area?|- There's a 70 per cent probability.
{9509}{9561}Why don't the Aschen want us to know?
{9564}{9656}Until we share our database, they have|only our word of what's out there.
{9659}{9768}They're vulnerable. If we didn't have|an iris, I think we'd do the same.
{9785}{9884}You know what?|I have not eaten since, uh... oh, today.
{9937}{10030}The mess is this way.|If you'd like, we can talk more there.
{10033}{10085}I'd like that very much.
{10400}{10449}Chevron three, encoded.
{10692}{10741}Morning.
{10836}{10937}- This is what you're wearing?|- What's wrong with it?
{10939}{11025}- Nothing.|- Chevron four, encoded.
{11043}{11119}- You look fine.|- They said I didn't need a uniform.
{11122}{11216}- I just wanna make a good impression.|- Chevron five, encoded.
{11219}{11285}- You look great. Very sharp.|- Thank you.
{11299}{11355}Chevron six, encoded.
{11358}{11415}It's the shoes.
{11460}{11517}They're gonna get ruined.
{11533}{11588}It's a farm planet.
{11617}{11656}Chevron seven, locked.
{12039}{12128}Enjoy the ride, Ambassador.|We'll look forward to your return.
{12196}{12245}- After you.|- Thank you.
{13379}{13436}- It looks just like, uh...|- Oh, yeah.
{13445}{13542}Just when you think you're not|in Kansas any more, turns out you are.
{13597}{13669}- We'll see what we can dig up.|- Have fun.
{13744}{13847}You said the Volians and the Aschen|enjoy a long-standing trade relationship,
{13849}{13965}but there aren't any signs of trade|infrastructure around the Stargate.
{13968}{14034}- What is that sound?|- Have a look.
{14372}{14473}It's a harvester. The Aschen provided|hundreds of them all over the planet.
{14476}{14530}When a field is ready, it harvests the crop
{14533}{14642}and then brings it to the Stargate|for transport to the Aschen home world.
{14887}{14930}We're gonna want a few of those.
{14964}{15030}I'm sure that can be arranged, Colonel.
{15055}{15111}- Borren!|- Colonel.
{15155}{15247}I thought I made it clear|your weapons were unnecessary.
{15250}{15304}I thought you were jokin' around.
{15334}{15387}You know, like you always do.
{15453}{15536}Borren, may I introduce|our official representative,
{15539}{15603}Ambassador Joseph Faxon|of the United States.
{15605}{15671}- I bring greetings...|- I am not your counterpart.
{15673}{15778}The harvester possesses a suitable|compartment. This way, please.
{15878}{15927}Shoes.
{16007}{16069}- You have something?|- I'll show you on the star map.
{16072}{16142}We've calculated five|possible Stargate coordinates
{16145}{16246}within a 300 light year radius|of P3A-194, the Volian system.
{16249}{16313}And there's a good chance|one is the Aschen world?
{16315}{16393}These three were just calculated,|so they're unexplored.
{16395}{16485}This one was determined uninhabitable|by a MALP probe three years ago.
{16488}{16562}But, sir, this gate was locked out|of our dialling computer
{16565}{16623}by your order seven months ago.
{16626}{16675}So there's a one in four chance
{16678}{16761}that the Aschen home world|is a planet that I ordered off limits?
{16764}{16788}Yes, sir.
{16791}{16888}Have SG teams 3, 12 and 15 report to|the briefing room as soon as possible.
{16891}{16940}Yes, sir.
{17349}{17398}Keel.
{17406}{17459}It's Dan Jackson and Teal'c.
{17466}{17528}You said you'd not likely|be this way again.
{17531}{17607}We wanted to learn about|your relationship with the Aschen.
{17610}{17684}- What would you like to know?|- If they are honourable.
{17725}{17799}Yeah. I wouldn't have put it|quite that way, but...
{17801}{17871}They've been friends to us|since I remember.
{17873}{17962}I was raised by an Aschen family. Orphan.
{17989}{18119}They give medicine freely, machines|freely... Light and heat for our homes.
{18132}{18210}So they've never been|unreasonable with you in any way?
{18213}{18347}They just float around in their harvesters|mostly, what few of them there are.
{18356}{18494}- You maintain freedom from their world?|- If freedom is bein' left alone, we have it.
{18566}{18619}OK. Well, thank you.
{18660}{18798}Uh... when next you speak to one,|tell 'em I got iron root in my south field.
{18800}{18881}Can't dig it out myself.|Need one of their machines.
{18884}{18968}Iron root?|Well, maybe... maybe we can help.
{19128}{19177}Stand here.
{19657}{19741}Oh, yeah... we're gonna|want a few of these too.
{19993}{20082}Let me introduce your|counterpart from our confederation.
{20085}{20170}- Mollem.|- I offer greetings from our president,
{20173}{20259}in the hope we can forge a friendship|to enrich both our peoples.
{20262}{20369}This seating arrangement is suitable|for our negotiations. Please.
{20466}{20532}I assume there are facilities on board?
{20544}{20599}In the next compartment.
{20636}{20706}Just wanted to make sure|before we flew off somewhere.
{20708}{20846}The harvester will remain in the vicinity of|the Stargate throughout the negotiations.
{20870}{20921}Mind if I check out the view first?
{21479}{21576}Daniel, Teal'c, we're on board|one of their harvesters.
{21578}{21669}When you get back, report to Hammond.|Let him know proceedings have begun.
{21685}{21740}Copy that. And good luck.
{21926}{21975}Here it is.
{22071}{22125}It goes deep, I'll tell you that.
{22172}{22273}Keel, we can probably take care of this|for you with Teal'c's staff weapon.
{22275}{22357}General Hammond's request|was to gather information.
{22360}{22434}He also said we should dig a little deeper.
{22474}{22542}There's a jug|of my best sweetwater in it for you.
{22544}{22593}OK.
{22788}{22871}- Have you discovered something?|- Oh, God, I hope not.
{22898}{22954}Probably, though.
{22981}{23037}Our position is straightforward.
{23071}{23160}You discovered means of travel|between Stargates all over the galaxy.
{23163}{23243}- Several hundred worlds, I am told.|- Yes.
{23260}{23324}And you seek technologies|for purposes of defence
{23327}{23428}against hostile races you|have encountered on these travels.
{23431}{23472}Yes, we do.
{23475}{23599}We agree, in principle, to provide you|with these defence technologies,
{23602}{23754}and much more, in exchange for your full|disclosure of this Stargate network.
{23809}{23875}And we also agree, in principle.
{24290}{24351}An ancient city once stood here.
{24385}{24471}I don't know about ancient.|Certainly, extinct.
{24474}{24546}I don't wanna talk semantics,|but even if this was a city
{24549}{24607}just a few hundred years ago,
{24633}{24682}what happened?
{24882}{24950}What is the current population of Earth?
{24956}{25030}Well, forgive me.|I don't know the exact number.
{25051}{25125}Somewhere in|the neighbourhood of six billion?
{25136}{25195}Growing at a rate|of several million a year.
{25198}{25292}- That growth rate is unsustainable.|- We agree.
{25301}{25392}- You represent the dominant nation?|- That is a fair assessment.
{25395}{25484}And so are you taking military action|to curtail this growth rate?
{25487}{25578}No. We respect|the sovereignty of our neighbours.
{25605}{25659}We are pleased to hear that.
{25676}{25768}The worlds of the confederation|are a partnership of equals.
{25774}{25823}(clanking)
{25834}{25937}Do not be alarmed. The harvester|is continuing its normal operations.
{25974}{26056}While you may respect these neighbours,
{26085}{26186}you have not yet revealed to them|the existence of your Stargate.
{26188}{26238}Not to all.
{26241}{26340}Any treaty between the Aschen|Confederation and the people of Earth
{26342}{26395}must be with all the people of Earth.
{26547}{26611}I think we can agree to that.
{26690}{26804}The level of technology appears|to be similar to Earth, circa 1910.
{26870}{26965}There appears to be|no sign of battle, Daniel Jackson.
{26968}{27036}But I can tell you that,|barring a natural disaster,
{27039}{27109}it takes nature|several centuries to bury a city.
{27111}{27189}This place looks like|it was just ploughed over recently.
{27192}{27299}- Perhaps to create farmland.|- Or the Volians had a Luddite movement.
{27301}{27418}Whoever did this, they probably did it|long after the city was abandoned.
{27441}{27507}- There are no human remains.|- Exactly.
{27510}{27565}So the question is: why?
{27658}{27784}This looks like a public building of some|sort. I'm gonna go and take a look around.
{27925}{27979}It may be extremely dangerous.
{27982}{28031}Yes, it may.
{28086}{28164}I'm gonna go inside|and take a look around.
{28300}{28388}Several months ago we received|a message through the Stargate
{28391}{28533}that simply stated "Under no|circumstances go to P4C-970."
{28536}{28598}- The warning from the future.|- That's the theory.
{28601}{28662}We don't know|the circumstances it was written in,
{28665}{28793}only that the signature and the blood|found on the note match Colonel O'Neill's.
{28795}{28851}We've determined that the race of people
{28854}{28926}we're currently in trade|negotiations with, the Aschen,
{28928}{28992}may be from one of these four planets.
{29004}{29120}Then the only way to rule out 970 as the|Aschen world is to check the other three.
{29127}{29182}That's your mission.|Have your teams ready
{29185}{29243}once the MALPs|determine you're good to go.
{29270}{29336}Just out of curiosity,
{29338}{29439}what kind of defence technologies|are we talking about?
{29442}{29532}Space guns? Force fields? Motherships?
{29640}{29760}This is an example of a bioweapon|we can make available to you.
{29779}{29867}A living, radioactive|genetic material that may be designed
{29870}{29959}to attack and destroy|only the specific DNA of your enemy.
{30027}{30107}We have a number|of efficient delivery systems.
{30110}{30162}(clears throat)
{30165}{30210}We'd want certain assurances...
{30212}{30331}That we take military action only against|your enemies, and not your friends.
{30334}{30389}Of course.
{30392}{30474}The question arises,|why have these "friends" of Earth
{30477}{30586}not already provided you with the defence|technologies that you seek from us?
{30588}{30658}Most advanced races that|we've befriended hesitated
{30661}{30803}to share their technology with us for fear|that we could use it to destroy ourselves.
{30814}{30888}True friends would|endeavour to prevent that.
{30891}{30961}You have changed|the way in which we view the universe.
{30964}{31053}Do not underestimate|what we offer in return for that gift.
{31056}{31141}We can put an end to disease.|Double the human life span.
{31166}{31253}Provide the means to cross|entire continents in a single step.
{31256}{31368}Much more than simply a means to|defend yourselves against your enemies.
{31371}{31484}We offer Earth membership|within the Aschen Confederation.
{31756}{31834}- Chevron one, encoded.|- Sir? Pentagon, line one.
{31889}{31938}This is Hammond.
{31941}{32040}- Yes, sir, we were just about to de...|- Chevron two, encoded.
{32042}{32091}May I ask why?
{32121}{32172}Understood.
{32175}{32303}- Sergeant, abort the dialling sequence.|- Yes, sir. Aborting dialling sequence.
{32306}{32424}SG-15, your recon mission is scrubbed|until further notice. You may stand down.
{32427}{32508}- Sir, what's going on?|- That's what I aim to find out.
{32637}{32738}It would not be wise to attempt|that again, Daniel Jackson.
{32803}{32943}OK. Now, if I'm right,|these are newspapers.
{33261}{33310}There seems to be faint pictures.
{33313}{33393}Yes, and hopefully|they'll paint a thousand words.
{33441}{33548}It's similar to an ancient Celtic text I found|in Wales. I can make some of this out.
{33550}{33597}(falling masonry)
{33599}{33656}We need to look for big headlines first.
{33659}{33725}This cavern may be unstable.
{33727}{33791}It would be best|if we returned to the surface.
{33794}{33843}Oh, I don't think so.
{33846}{33929}If this doesn't help us,|we'll have to take another look around.
{33932}{33998}If the Aschen really|do have something to hide,
{34001}{34075}I don't think|we're gonna get a second chance.
{34119}{34206}Colonel, you seem pensive.
{34248}{34300}No, I was just thinking.
{34352}{34428}You're offering|a lot more than we asked for.
{34430}{34485}Our motives are not entirely selfless.
{34488}{34556}Perhaps you offer more|than you give yourself credit for.
{34559}{34666}- Access to the Stargate network.|- And the promise of much more, Major.
{34669}{34741}An introduction to advanced races|you have befriended,
{34744}{34822}just as the Volians introduced you to us.
{34825}{34901}Your ways and culture will enrich ours.
{34909}{35008}The Aschen are not the natural explorers|that you so obviously are.
{35020}{35145}Fortified by our technology,|you can continue your exploration,
{35148}{35224}share with us what you learn.
{35226}{35309}You understand I have|to present your offer to our leaders?
{35312}{35409}You'll find we are|a very patient people, Ambassador.
{35528}{35654}In the meantime, I will also confer with|my leadership, and recommend to them
{35657}{35750}the immediate commencement|of trade between our worlds.
{35906}{35964}I look forward to our future together.
{35988}{36037}As do l.
{36117}{36158}Well,
{36160}{36246}that was... easy.
{36258}{36307}This was just the first stage.
{36310}{36393}If you thought it was too easy,|you won't feel that when we're done.
{36396}{36488}So I'm the only one|that has a bad feeling about this.
{36536}{36571}Yes.
{36714}{36763}Just checking.
{36787}{36892}The headline says something|about a pandemic. Some sort of...
{36907}{36967}I can't translate that. Maybe "fever".
{36994}{37072}If the Aschen are the "newcomers"|in this article, they provided a...
{37075}{37158}Can't translate that, but it|appears to have been a sort of vaccine.
{37161}{37241}And the Volian people|were immensely grateful.
{37250}{37314}Which serves to prove|the Aschen are honourable.
{37317}{37457}All it proves is the city was abandoned|after they made contact with the Aschen.
{37459}{37540}Cities are usually abandoned|when civilisations fall.
{37543}{37615}Perhaps they relocated|in the Aschen Confederation.
{37617}{37722}I don't like the sound of that either.|Keel said he'd never been anywhere else.
{37724}{37796}This city has been|abandoned for many years.
{37798}{37915}Yes, but long enough ago for Keel to have|absolutely no idea it was ever here?
{37995}{38125}Welcome back. As per your instructions,|Ambassador, an air-force jet is waiting
{38128}{38213}to take you to Washington|as soon as you're cleared by our doctors.
{38216}{38329}Thank you, General. History will|remember your contribution to this.
{38338}{38404}O'Neill. Two Ls.
{38435}{38488}And, Major, next time I'm here,
{38491}{38561}I know a restaurant that|beats your mess, hands down.
{38564}{38619}I'd like that.
{38762}{38876}Well, General, it might be time|to reconsider this retirement thing.
{38879}{38951}Not yet, Colonel. Come with me.
{39069}{39155}The president doesn't want to risk|a potentially rewarding alliance
{39158}{39239}on the basis of a note that may or may not|be a warning from the future.
{39242}{39320}I knew that thing|was gonna come back to haunt me.
{39322}{39423}General, to confirm the Aschen are from|a world other than 970 is only prudent.
{39425}{39522}And if we encounter the Aschen|on one of those other worlds?
{39524}{39621}- They wouldn't be too happy about it.|- It could jeopardise the treaty.
{39624}{39675}- Send a probe.|- Maybe sending a probe
{39678}{39800}was what caused the problem you were|trying to avoid by sending your note.
{39803}{39857}Technically, I haven't sent it yet.
{39860}{39928}But if I get a chance again,|I'll add a lot more detail.
{39931}{40054}You were probably trying to limit the|causality violation by keeping it simple.
{40057}{40123}I wonder whose idea that was.
{40156}{40255}You know me. I wouldn't have sent|that note without a damn good reason.
{40258}{40328}- The president should know that.|- He's under pressure
{40331}{40434}to present a real benefit of the Stargate|programme before the next election.
{40436}{40520}- Oh, here we go.|- The bottom line is, he wants us out of it.
{40523}{40593}From now on, this treaty is a state matter.
{40614}{40719}- What did Daniel and Teal'c find out?|- They haven't returned yet.
{40767}{40899}The Aschen vaccine had a side effect.|I don't know what.
{40902}{40976}It might be an Aschen word,|but I know it was big news here.
{40979}{41053}- How would you know this?|- It's in big black letters.
{41056}{41124}"Aschen vaccine causes... " something.
{41126}{41178}I don't know what, but it's not good.
{41181}{41276}These pictures appear to be like|those we saw of people celebrating.
{41279}{41334}I don't think they're celebrating.
{41337}{41386}I think they're rioting.
{41404}{41463}(O'Neill overradio) Daniel? Teal'c?
{41533}{41626}We're in an underground cavern.|Do the Aschen know we're down here?
{41634}{41722}Negative. Keel said|you were digging a hole around here.
{41725}{41820}Yeah. Um, stay put. We'll come meet you.
{42010}{42059}Boy, when they dig a hole...
{42143}{42186}Daniel, where exactly are you?
{42188}{42279}We're in the buried ruins|of the Volian union's capital city.
{42282}{42334}By all accounts, a thriving metropolis.
{42337}{42434}That is, I think,|until the Aschen wiped them out.
{42632}{42679}(Daniel) OK, here's what we know.
{42701}{42785}200 years ago, the Volians|were a thriving urban civilisation,
{42788}{42882}approximating turn-of-the-century|North America in terms of technology.
{42885}{42941}- That wasn't very long ago.|- No, it wasn't.
{42944}{43024}- What happened to them?|- We know there was a flu pandemic,
{43026}{43096}Iike the one on Earth in 1918|that killed over 20 million.
{43099}{43177}- Now that is when the Aschen came.|- Through the Stargate?
{43179}{43265}In ships. The Volian gate|wasn't discovered until years later.
{43268}{43367}They befriended the Volians, offered|them a vaccine and saved their world.
{43370}{43471}So the Aschen were heroes to the Volians|and their friendship lasted years.
{43473}{43522}But then something happened.
{43555}{43602}- What?|- I don't know.
{43605}{43681}- We found no evidence of battle.|- I found one clue.
{43698}{43836}Here. This word loosely translates|as "medicine", "vaccine", "drug",
{43838}{43895}Followed by "from the newcomers",
{43898}{44012}Followed by "causes", followed by|some word I can't translate.
{44026}{44108}This was the latest issue we found,|which most likely indicates
{44111}{44185}the paper shut down|or was shut down the very next day.
{44187}{44239}Vaccine causes what?
{44242}{44291}I don't know. But it caused something.
{44294}{44375}In 200 years, they went|from an urban civilisation of millions
{44378}{44485}to an agrarian one of thousands,|after they were "saved" by the Aschen.
{44598}{44678}- You have to speak to the president.|- I just tried.
{44681}{44775}He's being briefed by|the ambassador and won't take my call.
{44778}{44890}General, I never did cash in on that|open invitation to visit the White House.
{44974}{45036}Remember?|Last time we saved the world?
{45345}{45403}Driver.
{45415}{45464}Pennsylvania Avenue is that way.
{45471}{45527}We're picking up another passenger, sir.
{45530}{45579}I beg your pardon?
{45862}{45914}Colonel Starsky.
{45960}{46040}Or is it Hutch?|I can never remember which one you are.
{46042}{46104}Kinsey.
{46107}{46175}What the hell are you doing here?
{46178}{46233}I know it's more upscale|than you're used to,
{46236}{46298}but I wanted a comfortable place to talk.
{46571}{46622}Drink?
{46625}{46676}I have an appointment.
{46679}{46728}No, you don't.
{46805}{46902}You shoulda heard the president when|he heard you want to change his mind.
{46905}{46977}- He can be cruel.|- The treaty's a mistake.
{46992}{47079}- You recommended it in the first place.|- I was wrong.
{47095}{47161}Hell, this was worth it just to hear that.
{47163}{47218}Let me tell you what it comes down to.
{47221}{47346}Those of us who actually have been voted|into office would like the opportunity
{47349}{47446}to make the damn decisions about|the governments we make treaties with.
{47449}{47539}- You don't have all the information.|- I know all about the note.
{47542}{47661}- That's why you should take it seriously.|- We have experts who know these things.
{47664}{47742}They tell me that the ink on your note was
{47744}{47880}a new biodegradable something-or-other|that hasn't quite been invented yet.
{47882}{47989}- What's your point?|- What's the future like? You can tell me.
{47992}{48091}- As far as I know, it hasn't happened yet.|- It has, for you.
{48094}{48203}Hell, you've been back in time,|forward in time, you've seen it all.
{48221}{48295}I just wonder how things turn out.
{48297}{48394}You know, without you|being a hero any more.
{48399}{48442}This has nothing to do with me.
{48445}{48565}I wonder how far you'd go to stop me|becoming president of the United States.
{48619}{48685}You think this is about you?
{48721}{48795}- Of all the self-centred, egotistical...|- Egotistical?
{48798}{48895}You're the one who can't stop|playing God with our future.
{48897}{48971}The minute we try to make|a deal for alien technology,
{48974}{49044}you decide that they're|the wrong kind of aliens!
{49052}{49142}Even our current president's|begun to see the pattern.
{49145}{49206}And, boy, he used to love you.
{49221}{49324}We know all about the 70 per cent|probabilities, the one-in-four chances.
{49327}{49407}Kinsey... you're in way over your head.
{49414}{49463}Am l?
{49490}{49626}This is really a political matter, Colonel,|which will require bilateral approval.
{49628}{49764}And that's why the president put me in|charge of the next stage of negotiations.
{49890}{49956}Driver, stop at the athletic club, please.
{50003}{50102}Oh, you'll get your invitation|to the White House soon enough, Colonel.
{50104}{50153}Just not tonight.
{50220}{50294}Jonathan, when we get|to the athletic club, I'll step out.
{50297}{50404}You go on and take|our guest back to Andrews.
{50950}{51051}Apparently, we have agreed to make|a token gesture of our good faith.
{51053}{51103}Ambassador Faxon will deliver it
{51106}{51213}and return with an Aschen delegation|to meet Senator Kinsey.
{51219}{51268}We're actually going ahead with this?
{51271}{51356}- I'm told we're proceeding with caution.|- What are we offering?
{51359}{51429}- Gate coordinates.|- There goes the neighbourhood.
{51432}{51491}Ambassador Faxon has asked that
{51494}{51601}Colonel O'Neill and Major Carter|accompany him again.
{51603}{51692}- I thought we were out of it.|- Apparently, he's insisted.
{51695}{51755}Senator Kinsey agreed,|but only to Major Carter,
{51758}{51834}which presents us|with a window of opportunity.
{51836}{51904}- What can I do?|- Force their hand somehow.
{51958}{52032}If we accuse them directly,|they may simply lie.
{52035}{52107}Maybe we don't have to.|I have an idea.
{52229}{52307}Major, I can't order you to do this.
{52334}{52400}I know, sir. When do we leave?
{52708}{52790}- Chevron one, encoded.|- Historic day, General.
{52800}{52901}- Let's hope so, Senator.|- I was referring to your retirement.
{53102}{53153}Chevron two, encoded.
{53156}{53236}- Ambassador.|- Major. Is that what you're wearing?
{53324}{53385}Sir, I have a lot to tell you,|and not a lot of time.
{53388}{53485}- So, please, listen carefully.|- All right.
{53773}{53845}- Mollem, Borren.|- Ambassador, Major Carter.
{53847}{53925}- Colonel O'Neill is not here?|- Duties require him elsewhere.
{53928}{54033}- Of course.|- It is my pleasure to offer a gesture.
{54049}{54158}Coordinates and Stargate symbols|to several new worlds.
{54161}{54222}It is our honour to receive such a gift.
{54387}{54461}The coordinates are|on the hard drive in the laptop.
{54464}{54519}It'll just take a moment to display.
{54675}{54805}Our leaders would also like to extend an|invitation to Earth to formalise our treaty.
{54807}{54866}All in time.
{54891}{55009}By the way, Borren.|Would you read this aloud for me?
{55012}{55080}- I couldn't quite translate it.|- Of course.
{55115}{55176}"Sterility."
{55320}{55427}We knew what you were planning,|Mollem. This just confirms it.
{55480}{55529}What are you talking about?
{55532}{55627}"Vaccine Causes Sterility."|That was the headline.
{55630}{55760}You wiped out most of the Volians and|turned their entire world into farmland.
{55771}{55841}You'd do the same to Earth.
{55896}{55955}Lock them in here.|We have a treaty to conclude.
{55958}{56014}If we don't come back alive,|the treaty is off.
{56017}{56085}That'll be your loss.|We have what we wanted.
{56315}{56375}I'm sorry.
{56424}{56504}- What do you think they'll do?|- I don't know.
{56528}{56611}O'Neill sent the note|to prevent this from happening.
{56711}{56760}We were so sure.
{56763}{56812}Listen.
{56829}{56885}They're dialling the Stargate.
{57158}{57215}They're dialling Earth.
{57233}{57274}(whoosh)
{57277}{57355}- What is that?|- I don't know, but we gotta find out.
{57541}{57615}OK, when I get to the bottom,|follow me down.
{57617}{57678}We'll only have|a few seconds over the gate.
{57681}{57732}What?
{57793}{57900}Just do what I tell you,|when I tell you. Trust me.
{57908}{57957}OK.
{58595}{58620}Where's Major Carter?
{58851}{58900}Ambassador! Now!
{59240}{59301}Go!
{59976}{60025}Close the iris!
{60344}{60436}- What in God's name is going on here?|- When they knew we were on to them,
{60439}{60488}- they launched a bioweapon.|- Colonel.
{60491}{60561}I had to warn you.|I couldn't wait for the ambassador.
{60563}{60647}- Colonel, I asked you a question.|- You did good, Major.
{60650}{60724}- Thank you, sir.|- Let's get her to the infirmary, now!
{60726}{60782}Colonel!
{60785}{60896}I swear, O'Neill, there's gonna be|an investigation into this.
{60917}{61022}Well, that'd be fine. O'Neill! Two Ls.
{61174}{61215}I guess we dodged a bullet there.
{61218}{61286}Senator Kinsey appears most displeased.
{61293}{61357}Yeah, that's a crying shame, isn't it?
{61381}{61478}- Will we regret giving the addresses?|- I don't think we will.
{61481}{61551}First one being a black hole, and all.
{61554}{61620}They get progressively darker after that.
{61666}{61715}Carter, you all right?
