{1}{1}23.976 {77}{126}Once you walk through that|door there's no turning back. {127}{200}Oh, I understand, Brian. I'm not having any doubts. {202}{265}Alec, it is not just your credibility at stake here. {266}{296}You're right there. {299}{383}It's the leaders of the democratic|free world who should be worried. {384}{470}Think about the people who work for this company;|the shareholders. {478}{600}I am, Brian. They have a right to know|the truth, as does everybody else. {700}{781}Trust me... we're doing the right thing. {1160}{1219}Thank you all for coming. {1288}{1419}As you all know, about five months ago|our planet suffered a horrible tragedy. {1421}{1538}Over two thousand American|servicemen and women were killed {1539}{1610}when a meteor shower disrupted global communications {1612}{1727}and hit a United States naval carrier|group on manoeuvres in the Pacific Ocean. {1767}{1954}I'm here today to challenge the facts of that incident|as they've been conveyed to the general public. {2012}{2188}On the day in question,|none of our satellites detected a meteor shower. {2190}{2231}Hey, what's going on? {2245}{2332}Now I don't know how many governments|around the world are in on this, {2334}{2474}but I do know we are being lied to|and the truth is being covered up. {2534}{2659}Ladies and gentlemen, there is life beyond our world. {2679}{2792}There are aliens out there,|and they have a technology far beyond ours, {2795}{2902}and they have been intervening|in our existence for quite some time. {2954}{2999}I have proof... {3016}{3131}and I am giving the governments|of all the nations that are aware of this {3134}{3221}twenty-four hours to reveal the truth... {3305}{3396}or I'm gonna do it for them.|Thank you. {3464}{3540}Well... there we go. {3670}{3750}Season 8 - Episode 08|Covenant {3760}{3830}Transcript:|Callie Sullivan {3930}{3980}Team SG-66 {4130}{4200}Synchro:|frost666, greatouille, Laïkm6 {4220}{4270}www.seriestele.net {5100}{5180}For those of you living on another|planet for the past twenty years, {5183}{5301}Alec Colson, age forty-two,|net worth over sixty billion dollars, {5305}{5359}runs a global empire of companies, {5360}{5486}including communications, biotechnology,|aerospace and aviation. {5487}{5540}He's number eight on the Fortune Five Hundred. {5542}{5619}He personally holds over two|hundred proprietary patents... {5620}{5660}Shut it off! {5700}{5735}We know who he is... {5765}{5811}some of us better than others. {5818}{5868}We worked together briefly, sir. {5871}{5976}Colson Aviation developed the multi-engine|control systems for the F-302s. {5986}{6075}Colson didn't know what they were for,|of course, but he is a brilliant engineer. {6076}{6135}He's also a little nuts, isn't he? {6136}{6195}You've test-flown experimental aircraft. {6196}{6236}We all go through the Gate. {6245}{6295}This isn't about us. {6303}{6341}Well, in a way, it is. {6342}{6417}The point is, sir, he's not some loony cult leader. {6418}{6468}People are taking him seriously. {6492}{6547}So, what do we think he knows? {6561}{6631}He owns several Earth observer and weather satellites. {6633}{6677}It's possible they picked something up... {6685}{6768}pictures of Anubis' fleet in orbit,|or the battle over Antarctica. {6770}{6819}What I don't understand is how it could have come this far. {6835}{6922}He's gotten the National Security|speech from the Pentagon several times. {6928}{7005}Apparently the President has called him personally. {7007}{7062}Why not merely tell him the truth? {7064}{7160}His personality was profiled and|he was deemed a "security risk". {7174}{7214}For obvious reasons. {7217}{7307}Apparently his father was a newspaper reporter|who was jailed during the McCarthy era. {7309}{7410}He believes pretty strongly in the freedom|of speech and the rights for people to know|what their government is doing at all times. {7411}{7493}Leaking classified information could be considered treason. {7541}{7621}Alright... see if he can be convinced not to go public. {7652}{7703}Without actually telling him anything? {7707}{7740}Right! {7874}{7906}We've got all the major networks, {7908}{7991}over a dozen live radio broadcasts,|and reporters from newspapers... {7993}{8065}both legit and tabloids...|all waiting for the next shoe to drop. {8067}{8102}Brian, calm down. {8103}{8161}Our stock price is trading down twenty-five percent. {8162}{8235}We over-extended ourselves competing|for that last round of contracts. {8236}{8380}That stock price is the only thing covering our|debt and you are alienating our biggest client. {8380}{8425}We're gonna have to start selling off assets... {8426}{8530}What does that matter, Brian, given what we know? {8555}{8636}I don't know... I guess I'm just|trying to hold onto some shred of reality. {8637}{8705}Well, you... along with everyone else... {8706}{8805}are going to have to start dealing|with a whole new reality from now on. {8815}{8855}What if the world can't handle it? {8856}{8925}What if Washington's right and|we should just keep this thing in the bag? {8926}{8990}Trust me. The truth is always right. {9027}{9078}We've already caused mass hysteria. {9085}{9151}You have no idea how much chaos this could cause. {9159}{9214}Alec... they're here. {9216}{9248}Oh, show them in, would you? {9307}{9335}It'll be OK. {9387}{9418}Lieutenant Colonel. {9427}{9447}Alec. {9450}{9481}Radiant as ever. {9505}{9528}Daniel Jackson. {9532}{9566}Oh, Doc, I'm a big fan. {9569}{9589}Really? {9592}{9651}Yes... I've been following you since your early career. {9655}{9726}Pyramids as landing pads for alien ships? Fascinating. {9736}{9791}Er, yeah, that was a long time ago. {9795}{9880}Yeah, what have you been up to since?|It's like you just dropped off the map. {9883}{9917}I've been around. {9942}{10042}Oh, I beg your pardon... may I introduce Brian Vogler. {10052}{10092}Thank you for seeing us today. {10095}{10123}Well, shall we? {10142}{10237}Why don't we start with something|I'm sure we can all agree on, hmm? {10257}{10391}That meteor shower was a cover story,|and a surprisingly weak one at that... {10393}{10501}although under the circumstances|I'm not so sure I'd have come up with a better one. {10503}{10542}What makes you say that? {11015}{11081}Oh... I'm guessing that's one of ours? {11084}{11167}We lost contact with twelve communications|and weather mapping satellites {11169}{11221}for over six hours on the day in question. {11223}{11312}When we got them back on line, they were able|to transmit images stored in the buffers. {11332}{11379}Images like these can be faked. {11382}{11442}Or made to seem fake. {11545}{11608}I know why you're here, Sam. {11616}{11681}The Pentagon wants me to know that people like you {11683}{11739}are gonna be trying to make me look like a fraud. {11742}{11771}"People like me". {11773}{11875}Very smart people. Oh, we have more than this. {11887}{11938}Now, obviously I don't know everything but... {11941}{12030}I do have a right to, as does everyone else. {12060}{12108}Anything we can say to stop you? {12111}{12151}Believe me, I've tried. {12320}{12345}Carter. {12361}{12401}Sam, it's Julia Donovan. {12406}{12464}How did you get this number? {12480}{12520}I have my sources. {12523}{12595}Our camera track just caught|you and a nice-looking young man {12598}{12664}going into Colson Industries|'head office in Seattle an hour ago. {12665}{12704}I just saw the feed. {12707}{12730}And? {12732}{12787}Just wondering if you had an official comment. {12788}{12850}Yeah... I think your coverage is a little one-sided. {12851}{12924}Come on, Sam... Colson's gonna out the whole operation. {12927}{12994}You don't really think Washington can contain this. {12996}{13095}We'll see. Look, I don't have to remind you about|the non-disclosure agreement you signed, do I? {13101}{13152}It's the reporter from the Prometheus incident. {13171}{13235}Colson doesn't seem to be worried about going to jail. {13245}{13300}Yeah, well he hasn't done anything illegal yet. {13307}{13345}We had an agreement. {13348}{13422}You said that if something big was|gonna break, you would call me first. {13425}{13486}I will, OK? Bye-bye. {13506}{13570}I've got thirteen messages from Emmet Bregman. {13652}{13710}The switchboard's been jammed|ever since the press conference. {13713}{13754}Every crackpot in the world is calling. {13756}{13824}Yeah, I've arranged security|for all of you and your families. {13826}{13861}Do you really think we need to be worried? {13864}{13917}I'd be more worried about the things|we still don't know at this point. {13919}{13969}I'm trying to convince him it's not too late. {13972}{14021}It is too late, Brian! {14027}{14091}Too late for the world to know|there was a large-scale alien attack {14093}{14147}against our planet which was barely thwarted; {14149}{14198}too late for the general public|to realise they've been lied {14201}{14307}to by two different elected administrations|about the very nature of our existence! {14309}{14348}So we're going public with everything? {14349}{14390}I was really hoping the Feds would come clean. {14391}{14440}I can't believe Washington|hasn't done more to try and stop us... {14443}{14482}some sort of legal injunction. {14485}{14530}That would legitimise our claims. {14534}{14633}No, no, they're obviously gonna try to play|this as if we can't be taken seriously. {14636}{14680}We're one of the largest corporations in the world. {14682}{14713}And we're telling the truth. {14716}{14813}Alec! It doesn't matter who we are,|or how right we are. {14823}{14873}They can stop us if they really want to. {14876}{15025}Oh, come on, Brian, what are they gonna do, hmm?|Have me killed? {15115}{15139}{Y:i}Alec Colson, age forty-two... {15140}{15218}Well, he's gotta have something|more significant than pictures. {15225}{15309}I've been going over government contracts assigned|to Colson's companies over the last few years. {15310}{15366}I haven't got through them all yet but there's quite {15368}{15463}a few loosely related to R&D of alien technologies|that we procured offworld. {15517}{15566}{Y:i}We'll now head to Colson Industries. {15629}{15707}{Y:i}Welcome, and thank you for coming. {15708}{15747}Twenty-four hours to the minute. {15751}{15901}Yesterday I told you of our belief in the|existence of intelligent life beyond our planet. {15925}{16070}I also told you that we believe several governments,|including our own, have known about this {16071}{16155}and have been concealing|the information for quite some time now. {16174}{16323}Yesterday, I challenged those governments|to come clean... reveal the truth. {16388}{16435}We got only silence... {16485}{16691}Which gives me no choice|but to present to you what evidence I have. {16753}{16854}How do I know for sure|that alien life really does exist? {16910}{17016}Ladies and gentlemen, seeing is believing. {17709}{17757}Well I'd call that somethin'. {17927}{18009}{Y:i}The world is in a frenzy after|yesterday's startling revelation {18011}{18126}{Y:i}of what appeared to be a live alien|by billionaire industrialist Alec Colson. {18129}{18205}{Y:i}Thus far there's been no official|statement from the White House, {18208}{18325}{Y:i}and sources inside Colson Industries promise|that there is definitely more to come. {18325}{18365}OK, thank you, Sergant. {18395}{18467}Well, we just got a message back from Thor. {18472}{18549}As far as he knows,|there are no Asgard currently on Earth. {18553}{18603}Loki was here for years conducting experiments {18605}{18660}without the High Council knowing about it. {18677}{18828}OK... here's a possibility.|What if it wasn't really an Asgard? {18888}{18925}- Looked like one.|- Didn't sound like one. {18926}{18970}- Didn't say anything.|- That's my point {18975}{19044}Colson wrapped things up pretty|quickly without taking any questions. {19046}{19081}It was a perfect likeness. {19105}{19187}Imagery of little grey aliens has|been commonplace on Earth for years. {19189}{19244}For that matter, Colson could have a picture. {19247}{19276}So not a real Asgard? {19284}{19358}No Asgard we know would allow|himself to be used that way. {19369}{19406}Did look a little vacant. {19436}{19495}Still... as much as he wants the whole truth, {19496}{19562}I don't think Colson would perpetrate a hoax to get it. {19564}{19596}Then what was it? {19635}{19673}I don't know. {19686}{19725}The networks all want interviews. {19735}{19778}Too bad our friend can't talk. {19779}{19810}Well, we know he's capable. {19811}{19865}The MRI showed a larynx not too different from ours {19866}{19914}but he doesn't seem to have anything to say. {19916}{20001}They also want full access for independent|medical and scientific personnel {20002}{20057}to verify that it's really what we say it is. {20058}{20091}How are we supposed to convince the world {20092}{20156}of alien intelligence when this guy|doesn't seem to have any? {20158}{20209}We can't just trot this thing out on television {20211}{20270}with wild claims we aren't gonna be able to back up! {20275}{20333}Granted, it's an amazing genetic experiment {20334}{20398}but we don't even know that the thing is really alien. {20399}{20425}What else could it be? {20427}{20493}All we know is that the DNA came|from the Department of Defense. {20494}{20577}Look, we're trying to build a circumstantial case here. {20579}{20612}The more questions we can raise, {20613}{20683}the more the burden of proof|is gonna shift to Washington. {20684}{20751}Sooner or later, they're gonna have|to respond to the public pressure. {20752}{20866}Meanwhile, we stay quiet.|The media's going nuts over this whole thing, {20869}{20996}so let's just sit tight and see what happens. {21079}{21175}Well, Sam was right...|there's something different about Colson's Asgard. {21260}{21326}It seems that a Colson biotech research company {21327}{21398}was given a copy of Asgard DNA for sequencing. {21399}{21448}We were trying to help with their cloning problem. {21452}{21504}Colson grew a clone? {21523}{21569}They weren't told it was alien DNA... {21570}{21607}It was meant to be a blind study, {21609}{21683}but they obviously took their research|a little further than the contract specified. {21715}{21805}Asgard DNA is programmed to grow|a clone to maturity in just three months, {21808}{21908}but they're essentially an empty shell until an|existing consciousness can be transferred into them. {21910}{21963}It did not speak because it was not capable. {21966}{22061}Exactly. They probably spent what time|they had with it teaching it how to walk. {22102}{22216}Well... the Pentagon has lost all patience. {22222}{22251}What are they gonna do? {22252}{22290}They want us to put a stop to it. {22301}{22324}How? {22343}{22391}We're calling in a marker. {22640}{22702}Yep... We're calling in a marker. {22845}{22870}Greetings. {22964}{22981}Excuse me. {23016}{23038}It's gone. {23053}{23071}What do you mean? {23072}{23117}Just disappeared right out of the lab. {23125}{23185}The alien! Computers, everything. {23196}{23223}How? What about security...? {23226}{23307}Nobody took it... it disappeared.|We were standing right there, {23310}{23367}there was a bright flash of light|and it was all just... gone. {23370}{23412}Alright, have Ron send out the decoy car... {23414}{23468}and get the plane ready for a trip to Washington. {23470}{23514}Have it ready by the time I get to the hangar! {23598}{23623}You ready? {23628}{23653}Not really. {23654}{23704}Well, just try not to think about the camera.|Focus on me. {23733}{23789}It's not that. I respect Alec Colson. {23807}{23887}I don't like being asked to discredit a man|who has every right to want the truth. {23913}{23950}But you've been ordered to do this. {23952}{23965}Yeah. {23969}{24027}Well, if you wanna go against those orders, feel free. {24028}{24058}I'll go with it. {24125}{24219}In five, four, three, two... {24284}{24380}We're here with Lieutenant Colonel|Samantha Carter of the United States Air Force. {24382}{24425}- Welcome.|- Thank you. {24431}{24471}Your background is astrophysics, {24472}{24551}and you're one of the military's|leading scientific researchers. {24552}{24620}We're all very eager to finally hear some reaction {24621}{24703}from Washington regarding|the revelation made by Alec Colson. {24711}{24769}Well, first of all, I can assure people that, {24772}{24899}if aliens really existed and were visiting|the planet, we would know about it. {24910}{24979}So, are you saying his claims have no merit? {24981}{25059}We all saw an alien on live television. {25062}{25158}Yes, well, Hollywood's been helping|us see things on TV for a long time now. {25178}{25233}Are you saying that the alien wasn't real? {25248}{25294}It depends on what you mean by real. {25311}{25371}Notice she hasn't actually lied once. {25377}{25423}I can show you some advanced methods {25425}{25499}for creating realistic 3D images|that we've been working on. {25505}{25530}By all means. {25536}{25619}We've been experimenting with|technology that makes it possible {25621}{25711}for us to create anything you can imagine... virtually. {25876}{25961}Wow... that looks just like|the alien Alec Colson introduced to us. {25995}{26047}Greetings, people of Earth. {26080}{26134}That's amazing... he looks so real. {26135}{26275}Though I look real, I have been created through|the use of advanced holographic technology. {26363}{26398}That's just incredible. {26463}{26500}It's just a projection. {26506}{26589}You'll probably be seeing technology like|this in theme park rides in a few years. {26601}{26664}Oh... she's good. {26775}{26860}Not quite the exclusive I had in mind,|but it'll still do huge numbers. {26861}{26889}You're hilarious. {26890}{26950}After everything you've been through,|you still care about ratings. {26965}{27060}How did you do it? I've seen visual effects before Sam, {27061}{27101}and this was some sort of... {27132}{27200}this was some sort of alien technology, wasn't it? {27355}{27380}What is it? {27396}{27456}Ten minutes ago, Alec Colson's private plane was forced {27458}{27565}into an emergency landing after|almost crashing on take-off from Seatac. {27573}{27656}The plane suffered sudden depressurisation|and loss of engine power {27657}{27707}but was able to land without serious incident. {27712}{27768}Excuse me, Sam, I've gotta get on the air with this. {27773}{27824}I need something on Colson's wife and his daughter. {27825}{27876}They died in a plane crash when he was twenty-four. {27884}{27932}That's why he started Colson Aviation. {27943}{27968}Let's go! {28049}{28069}Carter. {28070}{28118}Sam? It's Alec Colson. {28205}{28224}Are you OK? {28232}{28312}News travels fast. It was close. {28334}{28374}Brian's still as white as a sheet. {28395}{28426}How did you get this number? {28426}{28483}Oh, I have my sources. {28484}{28574}You know, the ground crew here found evidence|the plane had been tampered with. {28574}{28605}Someone tried to kill you? {28605}{28675}Seems that way. Any ideas? {28695}{28730}You think I know? {28749}{28844}Why would I go on TV to publicly discredit you|if I knew you were about to be assassinated? {28844}{28915}To make sure it didn't look like|Washington had anything to do with it. {28921}{28980}And a fine job you did too, by the way. {28998}{29032}I'm sorry... I was following orders. {29033}{29060}Yeah, I know. {29072}{29099}Don't worry, Sam. {29099}{29155}I don't believe for a second you were in on it. {29166}{29235}If it was our government, I'm sure you were just a pawn. {29256}{29309}That doesn't make me feel any better. {29310}{29355}Look, Alec, I can assure you ... {29356}{29450}It's OK, it's OK. It wasn't|my first rough landing; I'm sure it won't be my last. {29470}{29521}I won't be stopped, Sam. {29521}{29640}I promise you, one way or another,|the world is gonna learn the truth. {29855}{29920}Umm ... how about a hyperdrive for the Prometheus? {29928}{30014}That is something I must discuss with the High Council. {30015}{30122}Thor, c'mon! You said you wanted|to get something nice for the President. {30237}{30271}Carter? {30293}{30356}Sir, anything on who might have tried to kill Colson? {30366}{30409}It wasn't us. {30409}{30511}We think that Colson may have fragments|of downed Goa'uld ships recovered from the Antarctic. {30511}{30583}A subsidiary of his was involved|in the salvage and the clean-up. {30584}{30645}Are we just gonna keep trying to discredit the man? {30664}{30770}I mean, aren't we the ones a little delusional|to think that we could cover up an attack of this scale? {30800}{30840}What's the alternative? {30848}{30885}How about tell the truth? {30960}{30994}I mean to Colson. {30995}{31118}I know he's been profiled and|deemed a security risk and obviously|that's an accurate assessment, but {31119}{31179}what have we got to lose at this point? {31180}{31300}He's already trying to go public...|let's show him why it's so important to keep the secret. {31316}{31410}Besides, think of the benefits of having|a man with his resources on our side. {31496}{31615}Well, Thor and I are meeting with|the President in five minutes. I'll bring it up. {31623}{31664}Five minutes? {31665}{31700}Oh yeah! {31829}{31850}Right! {31959}{32094}Two o'clock, we go live with the pictures,|pieces of the alien ship, everything we've got. {32095}{32170}Alec, they tried to kill us! {32187}{32253}You think that didn't work in our favour? {32253}{32340}Dying doesn't work in our favour! {32571}{32635}OK... what just happened? {32649}{32755}Well, in layman's terms,|we beamed you up... and then down again. {32755}{32784}Where am I? {32785}{32885}Cheyenne Mountain Complex, Colorado. {32886}{32924}You know Daniel, of course. {32925}{32983}Uh, yeah, hi. And this is Thor. {32984}{33022}Greetings. {33035}{33100}Oh, so this is a real one! {33100}{33129}Yep. {33129}{33169}What-what happened to the clone? {33169}{33322}It will become a host to an Asgard|consciousness whose physical body is failing. {33322}{33355}OK. {33370}{33495}Now I must take my leave.|General O'Neill said he will see you all tomorrow. {33672}{33704}I wanna show you something. {34072}{34110}We call it a Stargate. {34179}{34271}I'm OK, Brian. I promise you, I'm fine. {34271}{34385}I'll be back in a couple of days.|I've gotta go... Alright, bye. {34395}{34468}- Ready?|- Woh... look at you! {34469}{34539}Yeah... Soldier Sam. {34549}{34598}Ooh, I get a uniform too? {34597}{34620}Yep. {34662}{34703}Alright! {35267}{35337}So, uh, where are we going? {35338}{35415}P4X-650. We have an offworld base there. {35430}{35470}And how far away is that? {35480}{35540}Six hundred and forty light years. {35559}{35602}Really?! {35603}{35645}Let's go. {35983}{36021}Didn't feel a thing. {36021}{36070}You were demolecularised. {36125}{36169}Welcome to the Alpha site. {36172}{36220}Alec Colson, Captain Shefield. {36237}{36270}Hi. {36291}{36350}Well, it's-it's ... nice. {36361}{36430}Our last Alpha site was destroyed in an attack. {36430}{36500}We decided to build this one|inside a mountain like the SGC. {36515}{36585}This is all a bit spartan,|but it's our home away from home. {36608}{36750}I guess I was just expecting something|a little bit more, uh, I dunno ... other-worldly? {36979}{37096}Oh! Now that ... that's more like it. {37107}{37185}It's called the F-302... alien-human hybrid. {37246}{37310}So this is what the MECs were for. {37314}{37400}Yeah... thanks to you it's capable of|leaving the atmosphere and returning. {37421}{37485}We used a number of these|to defend the Earth five months ago. {37495}{37610}This is just one of the many|advancements we've made as a result of|technology procured through the Stargate. {37657}{37690}You wanna take a ride? {38086}{38110}Brian, what are you doing? {38125}{38250}Alec wants all the evidence|that we have about the alien cover-up|duplicated and secured off-premises. {38267}{38335}You can get started on whatever|we have left on the clone research. {38343}{38370}OK. {38700}{38729}Vogler. {38760}{38809}I told you, I don't know where he is. {38869}{38928}I have a meeting with the SEC this afternoon. {38955}{38992}I understand. {39023}{39068}Don't worry, {39090}{39131}it'll work. {39575}{39639}- Beautiful!|- Yeah. {39640}{39757}Must be hard, keeping all this secret.|I don't know how you do it. {39765}{39833}I think of all the fear it would cause,|the potential chaos. {39834}{39940}Ah, but what about all the greater|meaning you could bring to people's lives, {39941}{40018}just knowing that|all this is-is out here? {40018}{40111}What's out here is an enemy|so advanced, so evil, {40111}{40187}it's a miracle we haven't been|wiped out or enslaved yet. {40196}{40248}We've been very lucky so far. {40248}{40356}I think most people would have a hard time living|with the threat of constant impending doom. {40357}{40436}Oh, right, the old|"if you had cancer" argument. {40437}{40476}Would you want to know|you were gonna die, {40476}{40550}or would you rather live out your|final days in blissful ignorance? {40562}{40639}Yeah... I guess I don't really buy it either. {40639}{40705}Well, I'd rather know... try to cure it. {40705}{40843}If I couldn't do that, well, I'd try to make|my final days as meaningful as possible. {40876}{40920}You want a turn? {40953}{41008}I thought I was gonna have to ask! {41009}{41069}Switching to co-pilot control. {41075}{41116}Go ahead... she's all yours. {41305}{41350}So... what do you think? {41352}{41376}Amazing! {41378}{41499}She manoeuvres like an FA-22|and feels like a 747! {41500}{41549}Yeah, that's the inertial dampeners. {41550}{41603}Alright... let's try this. {41848}{41890}Alec! {41922}{41985}Alec, pull up! {42298}{42374}Flight, this is Alpha Command.|Is everything OK up there? {42376}{42450}It is now. We're fine. Bringing her back in. {42980}{43020}Well, that was reckless. {43024}{43120}Ah, the 302 can handle it. I know. {43121}{43219}I may not have known its name but|I helped you build it, remember? {43232}{43329}It was a joyride.|I took you up for a little fun. {43347}{43437}This isn't a game, Sam. |What you guys are doing up here, ... {43437}{43505}...this is life and death, for all of us. {43506}{43540}We know that. {43545}{43630}Wasn't much fun, feeling out|of control like that, was it? {43631}{43705}You have to make your point with my life. {43706}{43837}Oh, come on, we were never gonna crash,|unlike my plane back on Earth. {43837}{43915}I told you... we had nothing to do with it. {43916}{43965}Yeah, well, someone did. {43965}{44071}And if you think that,|or any of this... {44071}{44172}...is gonna prevent me from telling the world|what they have a right to know, {44180}{44238}... you're dead wrong. {44430}{44500}Alec, there's something else|I need to talk to you about. {44553}{44642}There's a clandestine group of private|businessmen like yourself who were informed... {44643}{44742}of the Stargate programme over six years|ago by rogue elements of the NID. {44743}{44843}We've tried to identify them and bring them|down but they are very highly connected. {44847}{44911}Former Vice President Kinsey's|been linked to them. {44928}{44978}Now, instead of going public like you, {44978}{45035}they've been funding various secret endeavours {45037}{45123}all aimed at controlling alien technology|for their own purposes. {45125}{45152}Which are? {45152}{45200}You'd have to ask them. {45212}{45334}Personal profit, or maybe they think they can do|a better job of defending the planet than we can. {45341}{45390}Why are you telling me all this? {45405}{45470}Because I'm guessing|that's who tried to kill you. {45507}{45590}They'll never get control of the Gate| if the world finds out. {45665}{45762}When I was young, all I ever|dreamed about was flying. {45763}{45887}I had every make of aeroplane ever|built hanging from my ceiling. {45887}{45994}And then ... well, I take it you know|about my wife and daughter. {46016}{46116}One of the downsides of celebrity|we really do have no secrets. {46139}{46262}Anyway, after the crash, I vowed|to make flying as safe as it possibly could be. {46262}{46334}I really thought that I could do it| better than anyone else. {46335}{46367}You have made a difference. {46403}{46454}But nothing's perfect, is it? {46465}{46506}No. {46519}{46569}Intergalactic travel; {46569}{46685}advanced alien civilisations;|humans living on other worlds. {46717}{46801}I do realise that there may| be bad guys out there too. {46802}{46860}You have no idea how bad. {46860}{46955}But in the end, we have|to believe in humanity. {46972}{47060}I mean, who knows, this might|bring us all together as a planet. {47080}{47150}If we knew it would play out that way, then ... {47180}{47280}You're afraid that knowing about the Stargate|would fracture the world more than it already is. {47283}{47395}Yeah. Not just stop us fighting the Goa'uld|but end things for good. {47395}{47461}We've seen it happen|on other planets like Earth. {47461}{47567}In one case, public revelation of the Stargate|caused an apocalyptic world war. {47567}{47634}Oh, that would be the ultimate irony,|wouldn't it?! {47634}{47734}You secretly save the world from|destruction at the hands of alien invaders, {47736}{47855}only for us to destroy ourselves out of fear,|after the fact. {47883}{47921}Change your mind? {47962}{48018}Not really. {48018}{48085}I don't think it would happen. {48108}{48211}And if a truth of this magnitude, {48211}{48350}about the very nature of human existence,|could lead us to destroy ourselves, {48371}{48440}then I'd say we would deserve it, wouldn't you? {48570}{48688}Investigators now believe that Alec Colson|created the alien hoax in order to divert attention {48689}{48751}from his real corporate financial problems. {48752}{48831}Colson, who has still made no public statement ... {48832}{48944}"Corporate financial problems." |What's she talking about? {48945}{49003}The story broke about an hour ago. {49003}{49068}The President's halted trading on the markets. {49068}{49113}Your company stock had fallen eighty percent; {49113}{49178}the Dow is down over five hundred|points on the whole. {49208}{49244}What's going on? {49245}{49340}The SEC is investigating|you for securities fraud. {49359}{49413}That's ridiculous! {49413}{49493}They're saying there are irregularities|in your company's last two financial statements. {49500}{49560}It's not true! {49590}{49637}Come on! {49653}{49704}The timing of this ... {49763}{49810}I'm being set up! {50174}{50220}What's she doing here? {50238}{50280}She wants to help, Brian. {50293}{50420}Oh good! Why... does she have a time machine|so we can go back and undo everything? {50428}{50510}Brian. Brian, what's going on? {50596}{50676}You wouldn't listen. You wouldn't stop. {50677}{50733}So you admit you did this? {50733}{50873}Oh! You go off on your adventures, you fly your planes, {50873}{50960}you drop by every now and then with a bright idea. {50992}{51058}Ever since we were kids. {51059}{51136}You're always biting off more than you can chew {51137}{51211}and I'm always having to bail you out. {51211}{51284}So you doctored the books?! {51284}{51389}I had to. I had to do something. I told you {51389}{51513}we were over-extended; the stock price|was the only thing keeping us afloat and ... {51513}{51568}you wouldn't listen. {51568}{51622}No, I don't believe this. {51624}{51710}Alec... who do you think told the SEC? {51713}{51830}Why? Why now? What difference could it make, Brian?|Once the truth came out ... {51831}{51900}Alec, I almost died in that plane too! {51930}{51980}I still have a family. {52002}{52043}- They tried to kill us!|- Who?! {52043}{52110}Did you really think that they were|gonna let you tell a secret like this? {52111}{52190}- Brian! What are you talking about?|- They call themselves the Trust. {52335}{52420}Look, all I know is, they're very powerful, {52450}{52615}and they think that Washington abdicated|its duty to protect the planet,|maybe even caused the problem in the first place. {52616}{52690}They see it as their responsibility to step in. {52766}{52800}We can fix this. {52824}{52915}It's too late... it's done. It can't be undone. {52915}{52983}Brian, we'll both go to jail. {52983}{53062}Yeah, but my family will be safe. {53063}{53184}What about the rest of the people that work|for this company? What about their families? {53184}{53250}Why weren't you thinking about them three days ago? {53334}{53370}How did they know? {53406}{53475}How did the people who threatened you|know that you'd cooked the books? {53476}{53560}How did they know that there would be|enough to indict both you and Alec? {53767}{53830}They got to you six months ago. {53862}{53910}Alec, they knew what you had. {53934}{53970}Don't ask me how. {54026}{54090}They had to make sure they could stop you. {54140}{54200}You're wrong, Alec... {54247}{54290}true or not, {54346}{54390}this shouldn't come out. {54510}{54570}World's not ready. {54625}{54682}There must be something we can do. {54682}{54724}You signed false financial statements. {54724}{54800}No, I mean about the people who tried to kill us. {54815}{54915}All I know is that they operate above the law and|that they've threatened people's lives before. {54931}{54968}Then we have to bring them down. {54968}{55020}We've tried, believe me. {55028}{55128}Well, we have to try again. {55242}{55352}So Colson's convinced Vogler to arrange|a meeting with his contact and wear a wire. {55352}{55450}Hopefully we'll get enough to connect them|to the rogue NID and then flip them for someone bigger. {55450}{55504}We're co-ordinating with Agent Barrett. {55504}{55567}At the very least it may restore Colson's public image. {55568}{55700}Well, yeah, especially if it turns out|that someone in direct corporate competition|with Colson Industries was pulling the strings. {55723}{55795}Unfortunately, without further evidence, {55795}{55924}Brian Vogler's word alone isn't gonna be enough|to undo all the damage already done to the company. {55924}{55969}What of Brian Vogler's safety? {55969}{56070}He's under close surveillance.|His family's been taken into protective custody. {56081}{56190}Well... I guess the secret is safe ... again. {56204}{56241}For now. {56312}{56332}O'Neill. {56333}{56410}You know, I wouldn't count Colson out just yet. {56410}{56480}He still feels really strongly that|the world should know the truth. {56504}{56531}Alright. {56543}{56580}Thank you. {56683}{56776}Surveillance just found|Brian Vogler dead in his bathroom. {56789}{56864}What? How? {56875}{56920}He hanged himself. {57556}{57580}Alec. {57885}{57930}I'm so sorry about Brian. {57931}{57970}I killed him. {57992}{58094}Might as well have put the gun against|his head and pulled the trigger myself. {58094}{58130}You couldn't have known. {58170}{58230}You saw how scared he was. {58250}{58300}I know what his family meant to him. {58325}{58400}He was never going to do anything|to put them in any danger. {58426}{58454}Alec ... {58454}{58520}He was my best friend. {58562}{58581}He betrayed you. {58582}{58670}No! I betrayed him. {58722}{58770}Why don't you put the gun down? {58914}{58950}My life's over, Sam. {58984}{59090}Everything I worked for, everything|I believed in, held to be true ... {59090}{59120}still exists. {59161}{59286}Apparently Congress is looking into providing relief.|The companies, the employees, will survive. {59286}{59360}While I go to jail for something I didn't do?! {59379}{59433}Back on the Alpha site you said, {59434}{59550}no matter what, you would rather make|whatever time you had left meaningful. {59579}{59622}I'm here to give you that chance. {59628}{59663}How? {59676}{59781}By making all the indictments|against me just ... disappear? {59781}{59850}I was thinking more along the lines|of making you disappear. {59878}{60016}Problem with a guy like me...|no place on Earth I can hide. {60016}{60060}Who's talking about Earth? {60158}{60238}Oh, no. No, I couldn't let you do that. {60238}{60340}Believe me, I wouldn't be here|without the approval of my superiors. {60350}{60409}Now, the President wasn't|responsible for what happened to you {60410}{60490}but he's also not sorry that|you were publicly discredited. {60558}{60680}Please, Alec, come with me.|You can still make a difference. {60728}{60780}He who fights and runs away... {61076}{61130}lives to fight another day. {61314}{61380}And no-one will ever know. {61416}{61480}Welcome to my world.
