{1}{1}23.976 {2}{66}{Y:i}Previously, on Stargate SG-1 {72}{175}Gerak emerged as spokesperson for the more|traditional ways of the Jaffa High Council. {187}{228}Which he could control. {235}{263}{Y:i}It's symbiote poison. {266}{399}{Y:i}The trust launched at least two poison attacks against|Goa'uld occupied worlds, after we took back the Gate. {410}{460}{Y:i}That means they had to leave|the relatively safe confines {466}{522}of the solar system and head out into the galaxy, {527}{589}{Y:i}where they ran the risk of being killed or... {601}{623}{Y:i}captured. {629}{684}You think they have been taken|as hosts then sent back to Earth? {690}{761}Any Goa'uld who got his hands on them|would have discovered pretty quickly, {763}{813}{Y:i}that they belong to a top secret organization {821}{933}{Y:i}with high level connections to some of the most|powerful Governments and institutions on this planet. {937}{998}By now, the entire Trust could have been taken over. {2031}{2086}Transcript by Scifigate. net|Subtitles by SG-66 - www.seriestele.net {2165}{2233}Season 9 - Episode 7|Ex Deus Machina {2270}{2345}He was discovered this morning on a|remote road of interstate 77 in Virginia. {2350}{2431}He was spotted by a passing motorist.|Local authorities say he's been dead about a day or so. {2436}{2478}Probably the victim of a hit and run driver. {2491}{2587}So what do we figure? This guy got lost|and he was hitching a ride back to Chu'lak? {2594}{2652}His presence on Earth is a mystery to me. {2656}{2691}He was found literally in the middle of nowhere {2694}{2770}about three miles north of a little|town called Edison. Population 3012. {2773}{2856}The symbol on his forehead indicates|that he was a servant of Lord Yu. {2865}{2909}Many of whom now follow Gerak. {2929}{2984}And Gerak might be able to shed some light on this. {3005}{3040}I will speak to him. {3043}{3063}Very well. {3069}{3112}Colonel Mitchell, you're with Teal'c. {3116}{3212}Dr Jackson, I want you to dig up all|the information you can on Edison, Virginia. {3218}{3277}Colonel Carter will join you|as soon as she's settled in. {3445}{3501}Sam! Hey! Come on. Let me,|let me give you a hand. {3505}{3526}Thank you. {3548}{3645}So, General Landry briefed me on the|circumstances surrounding our mystery Jaffa. {3646}{3682}Yeah, I think I got something on that. {3757}{3778}Farrow-Marshall? {3780}{3828}Yeah. You're familiar with them? {3832}{3925}They're an aeronautics firm headquartered in Bethesda.|The Department Of Defence is their biggest client. {3926}{3971}Yeah, it turns out that their plant|in Virginia employed about {3974}{4037}eight hundred residents at Edison, until|it closed down six months ago. {4048}{4095}Now, it's located just outside the town, and about a... {4100}{4169}a mile and a half from where our dead Jaffa turned up. {4178}{4200}Really? {4239}{4283}Pardon the mess, I'm still unpacking. {4337}{4386}Farrow-Marshall... {4410}{4445}Let's see what they've been up to lately. {4477}{4502}{Y:i}Here we go. {4524}{4590}Their Chief Financial Officer|went missing yesterday morning. {4591}{4616}Interesting timing. {4623}{4640}Yeah. {4642}{4744}According to his wife, he left for a business|meeting in Richmond, Virginia and never came back. {4888}{4925}Make no mistake, brothers. {4926}{4993}The Tok'ra only wish to meet|with us because they fear us. {5003}{5100}We defeated the Goa'uld and|took their motherships and strongholds. {5124}{5183}Now, we are our own masters. {5196}{5321}I needn't remind the Council that the Tok'ra did|battle with the Goa'uld for just as many years. {5331}{5401}Their efforts were instrumental|in securing our freedom. {5405}{5441}Let us all be clear. {5444}{5554}The only motivation that the Tok'ra have,|is their own selfish needs. {5556}{5594}{Y:i}Not to help any of us! {5606}{5656}Then what do you suggest, Gerak? {5712}{5797}That we use our new found strength|to take what we want? {5829}{5893}That we emulate our former oppressors? {5977}{6012}Brothers and sisters. {6028}{6089}We finally have the opportunity to govern {6093}{6146}with authority, and respect! {6175}{6229}Years ago, that seemed unthinkable. {6236}{6347}But now we are in a position to help others|who are in need of our support and guidance. {6354}{6381}Why should we help them? {6384}{6422}{Y:i}How about because, {6439}{6472}{Y:i}it's the right thing to do? {6496}{6610}Look, whatever your differences with|the Tok'ra in the past, it's time to move on. {6615}{6675}Teal'c is right, you kicked ass,|you're sitting pretty. {6679}{6709}Don't get hung up on... {6744}{6810}Outsiders are not permitted to address the Council. {7002}{7027}Never mind. {7073}{7107}I caution you. {7117}{7199}We have fought too long and too hard,|to entrust our future to the Tok'ra. {7234}{7271}Or the Tau'ri, for that matter. {7314}{7408}Brothers and sisters.|I suggest we bring this assembly to an end. {7411}{7460}Let us consider what we've discussed {7466}{7506}and reconvene in the morning. {7537}{7560}Very well. {7913}{7936}Gerak. {7956}{7983}A word. {8026}{8050}Teal'c, {8076}{8121}welcome back to Dakara. {8148}{8199}Your presence is sorely missed. {8213}{8238}What... {8254}{8326}draws you away from your Tau'ri home? {8341}{8419}A Jaffa was discovered on Earth, dead. {8423}{8467}Oh, strange. {8481}{8541}But, what has that got to do with me? {8546}{8639}He was a servant of Lord Yu's and|I assumed a follower of yours. {8648}{8699}Well that may be, but, {8707}{8752}I don't seem to recognise him. {8775}{8890}Nor do I know what he is doing on Earth. {9011}{9080}My obligation to the Council|requires my presence elsewhere. {9099}{9134}I'm sure you understand. {9462}{9507}He is lying to us. {9531}{9557}No kidding. {9908}{9975}It was about six months ago,|when he started acting strangely. {9988}{10019}What do you mean, strangely? {10039}{10076}Cold, distant. {10081}{10109}You've gotta understand. {10110}{10195}Alex has always been incredibly|focused when it comes to his job and {10197}{10252}at first I just assumed|he had a lot on his plate, {10267}{10345}but after a couple of weeks|it became clear that it was more than that. {10363}{10421}I started to suspect|he might be having an affair. {10485}{10559}So I hired a private investigator|and I had him followed. {10582}{10644}And what did the investigator find out? {10685}{10738}I'm not sure exactly, but {10752}{10809}a couple of days after accepting the job, he quit, {10811}{10894}returned all of my money and|strongly suggested that I drop the matter. {10913}{10953}He didn't offer you any kind of explanation? {10954}{11020}No.|But it was obvious he was scared. {11048}{11135}He did some surveillance in his first two days.|These are the photos that he took. {11161}{11224}He asked for them back after a couple of days, {11232}{11308}well after he dropped the case, but I refused. {11342}{11434}I offered them to the police, but they didn't think|that the photos were pertinent to their investigation. {11456}{11495}My husband wasn't having an affair, {11519}{11594}but he was clearly involved in something|that he wanted to keep secret. {11603}{11636}Do you mind if we hold onto these? {11648}{11680}No, go ahead. {12187}{12232}He still refuses to speak? {12248}{12282}The prisoner is strong. {12308}{12354}Then we must be stronger, Yat'yir. {12506}{12580}It was through instruments like this|we were oppressed. {12612}{12653}Then how appropriate would it be then, {12668}{12729}for it to be used to serve our cause. {12954}{13016}You will surrender your secrets. {13027}{13052}Of that, {13093}{13140}I am sure. {13530}{13558}Colonel Carter? {13566}{13627}Charlotte Mayfield. VP here at Farrow-Marshall. {13629}{13658}How can I help you? {13663}{13735}I wanted to ask you a few questions|about your plant in Virginia. {13755}{13796}It was shut down six months ago. {13800}{13827}Officially, yes. {13830}{13863}But we went by to check it out {13865}{13916}and it looked like it had been|cleaned out very recently. {13945}{13975}I'm not sure where you're getting at. {14001}{14057}Some of the residents of Edison|claim they saw trucks, {14059}{14114}travelling to and from the plant,|a couple of nights ago. {14130}{14156}They're mistaken. {14166}{14225}So you're saying,|no one's been in the area for several months? {14226}{14270}Well, I can't speak for the locals, {14275}{14347}but certainly, no one from Farrow-Marshall|would have any reason to go there. {14370}{14400}How about Richmond? {14457}{14508}Anyone from Farrow-Marshall have reason to go there? {14555}{14658}According to his wife, Alex Jameson was on his way|to Richmond, Virginia when he went missing. {14662}{14742}We've cooperated with the local authorities|on Mr Jameson's disappearance. {14755}{14781}You may want to consult with them. {14784}{14827}Who was Mr Jameson meeting with that day? {14830}{14849}I'm sorry. {14856}{14930}Company policy prevents me|from discussing that with you. {15009}{15048}Your CFO is missing. {15066}{15139}Now I would think that you would want to do|everything within your power to help find him. {15141}{15159}Oh, I do. {15166}{15233}As I said, we're cooperating with the authorities. {15269}{15322}Now if you'll excuse me, I think we're done here. {15432}{15475}These gentlemen will show you out. {15478}{15548}If you have any further questions,|feel free to fax them to the head office. {16055}{16096}You can be sure that's not the end of it. {16113}{16132}{Y:i}Of course not. {16181}{16211}We've only just... {16218}{16242}begun. {16384}{16471}With Kerry Johnson and the CIA's investigation|into the NID-Trust connection, {16481}{16522}we've done a little digging and managed to put names {16523}{16583}to some of the faces from the|photographs Sheila Jameson provided. {16592}{16651}Steven Ballard. Chairman of the Stark Consortium. {16663}{16731}This is Mesato Hiro, CEO of Far East Mercantile. {16744}{16849}James Lowry and Tony Trand, President and|Chief financial officer, Aleraf Pharmaceuticals. {16862}{16972}This one is Michael Northrup,|CEO founder of Hamill Technologies. {16976}{17022}Now all the individuals we've|managed to identify so far are major {17027}{17080}players in the areas of business and high finance. {17083}{17153}Very powerful, very influential|and in the case of these two, {17168}{17195}very missing. {17200}{17219}Missing? {17223}{17312}Terence Evans and William Blalock.|Founding partners of Persian Media Enterprises. {17314}{17354}They went missing about six months ago. {17360}{17425}Coincidentally, around the same time|we managed to destroy the Osiris ship. {17430}{17483}You see a possible Goa'uld connection here? {17485}{17555}Well, we already know that sometime last year,|the Goa'uld successfully infiltrated the Trust. {17562}{17630}And that the Trust has connections to|Government Agencies and Corporations worldwide. {17640}{17690}There's a good chance we didn't get them all.|If that's the case, {17700}{17727}Goa'uld are still on Earth {17737}{17764}and they're gaining strength. {18129}{18183}Let me guess. They didn't know anything either. {18202}{18299}As Gerak grows stronger, fewer Jaffa|risk defying him for fear of retribution. {18319}{18385}We must leave Dakara and seek our answers elsewhere. {18390}{18436}{Y:i}The answers you seek are on Earth. {18657}{18699}What do you know of the Jaffa we discovered? {18703}{18776}He lost his life trying to secure Gerak's prize. {18779}{18816}Of what prize do you speak? {18828}{18850}Ba'al. {18893}{18919}Ba'al is on Earth? {18934}{19043}That is where he sought refuge, immediately|following his defeat in the battle for Dakara. {19052}{19095}He has been there ever since. {19171}{19286}You're telling me a member of the Jaffa High Council|claims that Ba'al has been here on Earth {19290}{19334}for the better part of the last nine months? {19335}{19355}Yes Sir. {19360}{19398}Is there any chance she may be right? {19412}{19490}My information suggests that Ba'al|has been hiding in the Arkeba System. {19501}{19554}He has been sighted there as recently as a week ago. {19580}{19674}So the Council member is either lying|or she's a victim of bad intelligence. {19677}{19713}Not all bad, Sir. {19719}{19785}They knew enough, to look for|Ba'al at a Trust operated facility. {19802}{19852}If he were on Earth,|that would be the best place to start. {19854}{19938}If the Jaffa genuinely believe Ba'al to be on Earth,|they will continue to search for him. {19940}{19982}Well that's obviously unacceptable. {19990}{20085}Tell the Council we've begun our own|investigation and if he's here, we'll find him. {20091}{20162}It would not be in Gerak's best interests|to allow that to happen. {20166}{20185}Why? {20187}{20283}Ba'al's capture would be a big moral victory as well|as a huge political gain for whoever brings him in. {20289}{20381}Should Gerak be successful, he would win|the hearts of many undecided Jaffa. {20389}{20457}Thereby assuring undisputed influence over the Council. {20460}{20516}So all we have to do is find Ba'al before they do. {20519}{20560}Yeah, but Gerak has a head start. {20575}{20668}The fact that the company CFO went missing|around the same time that the Jaffa was killed. {20670}{20734}You think Jameson was at the plant|when they came looking for Ba'al? {20735}{20783}In which case, he may well have been captured. {21080}{21128}He has revealed Ba'al's location. {21129}{21193}And the locations of his various shelters on Earth. {21262}{21348}You should never have invented|such an effective means of torture. {21952}{21982}{Y:i}Come on, come on! {22071}{22093}Yes! {22290}{22345}Where is the false God, Ba'al? {22460}{22500}We've been compromised. {23298}{23338}They're five floors above us. {23339}{23383}I know. We're leaving. {23480}{23670}Hello? C'mon hurry.|There's people here!|They're shooting up the all place! {23795}{23810}So? {23811}{23887}Those offices were a war zone.|Staff weapons versus semi automatics. {23888}{23909}Who won? {23910}{23973}Hard to say. There was no bodies and|all the security footage was missing. {23974}{23995}Witnesses? {23996}{24095}One. Some guy who was working overtime.|Spent most of the firefight under his desk, {24096}{24155}but was able to provide a|description for three individuals. {24157}{24210}Big, tattooed, chainmail pants. {24211}{24290}So it's either our Jaffa, or Kiss is back on tour. {24300}{24375}I have something to show you.|We've just received this. {24465}{24600}Although it's a far cry from some of the|better world's I've conquered in my days,|this planet is not without it's charms. {24601}{24631}That's? {24632}{24673}{Y:i}In retrospect, I'm actually glad {24674}{24724}{Y:i}we never succeeded in destroying it. {24725}{24802}That said, Earth is not without it's drawbacks. {24814}{24894}The foremost being, an alarming lack of privacy. {24897}{24972}{Y:i}My ships have been seized, my armies vanquished. {24984}{25041}{Y:i}I no longer present a threat to this galaxy. {25045}{25114}All I ask is to be left alone,|without having to worry about you, {25115}{25218}the Jaffa, or any of|my former enemies coming after me. So, {25235}{25279}I'd like to offer the following deal. {25280}{25416}{Y:i}Allow me to live out the rest of my days|here on Earth in peace, without interference. {25430}{25553}In exchange for my freedom, I will follow your laws. {25554}{25610}{Y:i}You will never have cause to fear me again. {25649}{25706}{Y:i}I hope we can put the past behind us. {25711}{25816}{Y:i}I certainly have no desire to harm|you or anyone else on this world. {25830}{25976}That said, you should know that I've placed|a Naquadah bomb, somewhere in the United States. {25990}{26090}{Y:i}Consider it a precautionary measure. {26105}{26266}If another attempt is made to capture me,|I promise you the consequences, will me most dire. {26577}{26683}Of all the retirement destinations he could choose,|he has to pick our planet? {26705}{26847}We have teams outfitted with Naquadah detectors|in several major urban centers, but there's|no way we can cover the whole country. {26850}{26928}The Prometheus has instruments which can|detect Naquadah from orbit, does it not? {26931}{26984}Yes, but so far the scans have come up empty. {26985}{27011}So it could be a bluff? {27012}{27086}Or, Ba'al may have found a way to|shield the bomb from our sensors. {27087}{27122}{Y:i}Bluffing or not, he's still a threat. {27123}{27221}As defacto head of the Trust operations, he has|the resources and capabilities to do a lot of damage. {27222}{27245}Naquadah bomb or not. {27246}{27375}So, problem number one, how do we find him.|Problem number two, how do we take him|out without inflicting collateral damage? {27376}{27433}Good point. Ba'al is probably surrounded by security. {27434}{27505}No doubt, most of them human, with no knowledge|of his true identity. If we go after him, {27510}{27548}we risk injuring innocent people. {27551}{27611}Not if we use the symbiote poison|the Tok'ra developed. {27612}{27672}We already know it won't harm human physiology. {27673}{27757}And with the right delivery system,|nothing but that. Nice. {27758}{27808}I'll contact R and D, see what they can put together. {27811}{27866}Which leaves us with problem number one. {27867}{27955}The NID's running surveillance on the individuals|identified in the photograph's with Jameson. {27956}{28005}Hopefull, eventually,|one of them will lead us to Ba'al. {28006}{28062}Of equal concern, are Gerak's Jaffa. {28070}{28106}We have no control over them. {28107}{28210}If they decide to move on Ba'al,|Earth will face Ba'al's full reprisal. {28211}{28249}And I'm guessing, {28253}{28337}those Jaffa aren't exactly kicking|it back at the local Denny's. Plus, isn't it a {28344}{28405}long, stinky ride from Dakara, in a cargo ship? {28406}{28428}Indeed. {28447}{28534}It is more likely that Gerak has a|mothership, somewhere in the vicinity of Earth. {28560}{28659}Well if the Prometheus was going to detect the|naquedah from orbit, it would have done it by now. {28660}{28740}Alright.|I'll send them out to look for the mothership. {28742}{28799}Colonel Mitchell? I want you and Teal'c onboard. {28800}{28886}Colonel Carter, Dr Jackson,|you coordinate with the NID. {28890}{28975}In the event they locate Ba'al, I want you there. {29130}{29160}Hey! Wait up! {29755}{29825}Alright. That's better. {30165}{30200}Gentlemen, welcome aboard. {30201}{30245}Thank you Sir. Any word from NORAD? {30246}{30286}SSN came up empty. {30292}{30335}Could the ship we're looking for be cloaked? {30336}{30394}Motherships do not possess cloaking capabilities. {30407}{30457}Well then, could we be looking|for another type of craft? {30459}{30482}It is possible. {30507}{30575}Whatever the target ship.|If it's out there, we'll find it. {30780}{30836}Agent Barrett! Thanks for the lift. {30837}{30919}Well, I couldn't exactly have you guys catching|a cab to the stake-out now, could I? {30920}{30954}So what's the latest? {30955}{31006}{Y:i}Well, one of our agents following the Jameson lead, {31007}{31102}spotted an individual matching Ba'al's description|at the Gilroy Hotel on Fifth Street, {31103}{31130}about an hour ago. {31185}{31215}Looks like we got him. {31385}{31411}Picking up anything at all? {31412}{31476}Unusual variances?|Anomalous energy readings? {31477}{31497}No Sir. {31520}{31597}You know, it's possible what we're|looking for, isn't even out there. {31598}{31644}It is possible, but unlikely. {31645}{31690}If Gerak believed Ba'al to be on Earth, {31691}{31780}he would undoubtedly establish|a base of operations in planetary orbit. {31800}{31830}Great, so where is it? {31990}{32034}Hiding in plain sight. {32045}{32070}{Y:i}What was that? {32100}{32123}Right. {32140}{32250}Colonel Pendergast.|Plot a course for the far side of the moon. {32275}{32295}Do it. {32625}{32660}What's the situation? {32665}{32728}They're still inside. In 1602. {32729}{32785}All the exits are covered,|we're just waiting for the green light. {32786}{32823}Dr Jackson, you go with Williams. {33180}{33210}How've you been? {33230}{33260}Pretty good. You? {33261}{33316}Yeah, pretty good. Can't complain. {33400}{33420}What's new? {33470}{33555}Let's see. I was leading R and D for a while there. {33585}{33650}Well, I never figured you the type|to settle for a desk job. {33670}{33710}I needed something with more flexible hours. {33711}{33775}Janet's adopted daughter, Cassie,|was going through a hard time. {33776}{33796}Oh, I see. {33797}{33875}I spent some time on the Prometheus,|away on deep space reconnaissance. {33914}{33985}Helped stop a dangerous new enemy|from getting a foothold in the galaxy. {33986}{34037}Yes. Yeah, I heard about that. {34105}{34127}How's Pete? {34170}{34200}We broke up. {34250}{34270}Really? {34322}{34365}I mean sorry to hear that. {34367}{34415}Oh, it's the best thing for both of us. {34460}{34490}So you're single again? {34525}{34555}Not exactly. {34835}{34890}Sir, I'm picking up a large energy signature. {35025}{35075}- Lock on target.|- Target locked. {35085}{35145}Sir, we're receiving a communication|from the mothership. {35180}{35205}Let's see it. {35330}{35410}Withdraw! Or we will be forced to defend ourselves. {35411}{35470}Sorry, we're not going anywhere. {35835}{35871}Come on, where are they? {35875}{35924}{Y:i}Abort. All agents, abort! {35950}{35974}What's going on? {35975}{36070}{Y:i}He's not inside. If we move now,|we risk compromising the operation. {36485}{36535}Barrett, you'd better be damn sure about this. {36536}{36600}{Y:i}We're sure. Let them go and come to the van. {36785}{36805}Sam? {36810}{36835}It wasn't him. {36840}{36859}How do you know? {36861}{36915}Because he can't be in two places at once. {36916}{37010}Ba'al is across town right now, doing|a live television interview. {37015}{37040}What? {37041}{37080}{Y:i}Thank you. That's a very good question. {37081}{37212}My acquisition of Hammel Technologies and|it's subsidiaries is just a first step... {37213}{37315}{Y:i}in a long range venture that|will ultimately see a consolidation... {37316}{37424}and a streamlining of what is|presently a dissolute market. {37425}{37506}No doubts, most of you have never|heard of me before today. Well, {37508}{37623}I can assure you that over the next few months,|you will all get to know me very well... {37624}{37690}{Y:i}and I look forward to it. {37820}{37930}This is Colonel Pendergast of the Earth ship|Prometheus, asking you to stand down. {37935}{38058}We have no desire to engage in battle,|but we will not withdraw our forces. {38059}{38126}Look, we know why you're here. {38127}{38237}Then you also know that I have no choice,|but to maintain my present position. {38238}{38364}OK, FYI, we're not going to let you put|anymore men on the planet's surface. {38365}{38445}If you fire on our ship, we will defend ourselves. {38446}{38507}{Y:i}Yat'yir, hear me. {38520}{38579}You and your Jaffa are at a disadvantage. {38580}{38645}Knowing neither territory, nor it's inhabitants. {38660}{38715}Allow us to assist you in apprehending Ba'al. {38716}{38775}We can both lay claim to his capture. {38780}{38865}Then all Jaffa can declare freedom|and celebrate as one. {38866}{38975}I am afraid we are past the point where are|differences can be settled so readily. {39000}{39030}I am sorry Teal'c. {39155}{39220}Meanwhile, they've still got boots on the ground. {39221}{39256}Nothing we can do about that. {39300}{39325}Perhaps we can. {39365}{39391}Can how? {39392}{39442}By forcing Gerak's hand. {39650}{39675}Yes Sir. {39700}{39760}Our orders are to stay put for the time being. {39761}{39793}You've gotta be kidding me? {39794}{39835}Come on, we know where he is, we've got him. {39836}{39907}Yes, Ba'al has made it easier|for us to pinpoint his location, {39908}{40026}but unfortunately, by going public, he's made it more|difficult for us to take him down quickly and covertly. {40027}{40106}We make a move against him now|and we risk a media circus. {40115}{40195}Unless of course you feel like giving|the American people a Stargate primary. {40196}{40291}There's also the little matter of a Naquadah bomb|sitting somewhere in the continental United States. {40292}{40385}Yeah, OK. OK, we'll stay. {40390}{40472}The General's consulting with the Pentagon,|to determine what our next move should be. {40537}{40633}If there is one thing a Jaffa values|above all else, it is his pride. {40634}{40769}When the other Council members discover that|Gerak has not been completely forthcoming, they|will turn against him and force his hand. {40770}{40859}Gerak must be shamed into removing|his forces from Earth. It is the only way. {40863}{40915}Your turf, your rules, brother. {40936}{41056}No matter how far we must travel.|No matter how long it will take, {41092}{41244}our former enemies must pay for their crimes.|This I promise you and we will destroy them. {41261}{41436}Not only just in memory of those who have fallen, but|in honour of those who survived to enjoy their freedom. {41437}{41501}You speak of honour, Gerak. {41507}{41600}Yet you disrespect this Council|by dishonouring it with your lies. {41601}{41746}I have not lied to this Council.|It is you that I have purposely misled. {41747}{41843}For fear, that your commitment to the cause is suspect. {41844}{41948}Even as we speak, Gerak's followers|are hunting Ba'al, on Earth. {41949}{41987}Of this we are well aware. {42002}{42157}I had wished to inform the Council sooner, but I dared|not, for fear that elements sympathetic to the Tau'ri {42158}{42208}would learn about Ba'al's whereabouts. {42209}{42265}You dare question my loyalty! {42266}{42320}{Y:i}Your loyalty is not under question, Teal'c. {42332}{42459}You have done more than anyone to help secure our|freedom, and for that we are ever grateful. However, {42477}{42569}your allegiance to the Tau'ri|presents you with a difficult dilemma. {42571}{42699}Even as we speak, the Tau'ri ships|prevent us from pursuing the enemy. {42796}{42854}As you have said Ka'lel, {42877}{42967}I accomplished much in our long struggle|against our former oppressors. {42969}{43023}But only because of the|support of the Tau'ri. {43054}{43135}Their commitment was as unwavering as my own, {43136}{43217}and now you would repay them by|surreptisiously stealing upon their world. {43218}{43307}Putting their people, to say nothing|of the Stargate program, at risk! {43388}{43431}They are our allies. {43444}{43571}Rather than dishonour them by trespassing onto their|world, respect them enough to tell them the truth! {43587}{43686}Ask for their assistance in capturing Ba'al!|They will help us! {43687}{43747}But... will they? {43753}{43838}They are as determined to have Ba'al|answer for his crimes, as are we. {43840}{43895}But if they succeed... {43896}{43997}Then he will be brought before this Council,|where he will face his proper punishment! {43998}{44054}You have my word! {44206}{44292}What the hell are you thinking? There's no guarantee|that the US government is going to give them Ba'al. {44314}{44401}It was only to give Gerak pause before|his next attack against Ba'al on Earth. {44415}{44515}Even so, we may have only gained a brief respite. {44697}{44829}Satellite tracking has placed Ba'al on a remote|heavily guarded compound, west of the city. {44839}{44882}From the site of the press conference, {44883}{45039}directly to his present location, he took no evasive|maneuvers, made absolutely no attempt to|disguise his movements. {45073}{45200}Clearly, he is emboldened by the belief that you|would not dare attack him, now that he has made|himself a public figure. {45207}{45293}I've had Walter patch in|Colonel Carter and Doctor Jackson. {45294}{45345}Everybody up to date? {45346}{45444}We have a cruise missile prepped with symbiote|poison and ready to launch on your command. {45445}{45529}General, I recommend we launch now.|It may be the last chance we get. {45530}{45577}What if he isn't bluffing about the Naquadah bomb? {45578}{45640}Then we'll have stopped him before|he has a chance to plant any more. {45641}{45701}We'll have to come up with a cover story. {45712}{45750}Wouldn't be the first time. {45752}{45868}We must strike now, before Ba'al realises|his strategy has backfired. {45869}{45907}And the Council? {45924}{46005}I merely promised he would be delivered if captured. {46006}{46078}If he is killed, then there is no difficulty. {46400}{46440}Right, good work. {46493}{46523}What's the news? {46531}{46586}Stargate Command intends to attack. {46598}{46634}How can you be certain? {46635}{46832}The humans that set up the Trust were in a|position to infiltrate much of the secure|communications network employed by this government. {46833}{46911}How clever of them. {47025}{47058}Have you got something else for me, Walter? {47059}{47119}Yes Sir. We just got this sent to us. {47137}{47190}You have chosen not to heed my warning. {47191}{47229}Sort of forced my hand. {47246}{47326}There is a bomb in the Helsian tower|in downtown Seattle. {47327}{47422}It will detonate at exactly 1:30pm, local time. {47423}{47551}Call off your strike at my location|and I will diffuse the device. {47556}{47696}Defy me and this will be just the first|of many such demonstrations. {47739}{47775}45 minutes. {47776}{47876}The building's being evacuated.|Mobile units have been dispatched. {48000}{48076}Yes Sir. Understood, Sir. {48080}{48189}Agent Barrett, have your men tighten the|perimeter around the compound. No one in or out. {48190}{48269}Daniel, once the missile hits, you'll have to|go in and make sure we have a confirmed kill. {48270}{48305}Why, where are you going to be? {48306}{48336}Seattle. {48337}{48373}How the hell you gonna get there? {48467}{48489}Prometheus. {48490}{48526}Beats, flying coach. {49113}{49140}Colonel Carter. {49141}{49168}Have you located the bomb? {49178}{49226}We're unable to get a fix on it's location. {49254}{49319}Multiple signals. Is it possible|there's more than one device? {49335}{49362}Well, we're not sure. {49627}{49756}Wipe the hard drives|and destroy the equipment. I want nothing left. {49765}{49806}The Jaffa, they've found us. {49809}{49846}Time to go. {49976}{50060}Colonel Carter and her team are still searching.|No sign of the bomb, yet. {50106}{50243}Sir, Dr Jackson reports Jaffa at the target site.|They've engaged the compound guards. {50305}{50358}You must not hesitate General Landry. {50445}{50483}Launch the missile. {50499}{50530}Yes Sir. {50532}{50570}Launching Alpha Two. {50806}{50876}It doesn't make any sense.|It's like there's Naquadah everywhere. {50913}{50956}How old is this building? {50963}{51015}It's brand new. It just went up last month. {51016}{51086}Give me a secure line to Stargate Command, now. {51175}{51216}Sir, we've got Colonel Carter. {51217}{51255}Colonel, did you find the bomb? {51262}{51283}{Y:i}Sort of. {51285}{51312}What's that supposed to mean? {51313}{51399}Readings indicate, the entire superstructure|of the building is laced with Naquadah. {51404}{51471}It was built that way.|Ba'al's been planning this for a long time. {51472}{51522}I'm not sure I understand, Colonel. {51523}{51594}The bomb isn't in the building, Sir. {51607}{51667}The bomb is the building. {51898}{51939}Target is locked on. {51950}{52011}Sir, we have a confirmed hit on the location. {52012}{52104}Agent Barrett and his team|are moving in to secure the area. {52341}{52448}Sam! That Naquadah ain't gonna go off on it's own.|There's gotta be a detonator there. {52449}{52570}I agree, but it could be anywhere. Inside a|wall, under a floor. We'd never find it in time. {52571}{52625}How much progress have you made on the evacuation? {52626}{52739}We've cleared a five block radius, but when this thing|goes off, a five mile radius isn't gonna be enough. {52740}{52784}{Y:i}There's not much you can do about that now. {52785}{52864}I'll contact Prometheus, have them|beam you and your team outta there. {52865}{52940}Wait, that's it. Prometheus. Sergeant! {52941}{52970}Sir. {52971}{53043}Patch me through to Colonel Pendergast. {53109}{53149}Cam, what can I do for ya? {53151}{53205}I need a little help moving. {53956}{54035}{Y:i}It worked. The building detonated at a safe distance. {54036}{54086}Sir, I've got Doctor Jackson. {54089}{54103}{Y:i}General? {54104}{54134}What's happening out there, Doctor? {54138}{54226}{Y:i}I'm sorry to report Sir, it looks like Ba'al escaped. {54506}{54665}The old ways will no longer serve us.|Gerak's ways are not the ways of the future. {54866}{54906}How dare you? {54921}{54998}How dare you step foot in this Council chamber? {55020}{55095}Why should I pause to return?|Tell me Teal'c? {55096}{55145}Because you disregarded my warnings. {55156}{55269}Because your rash actions, not only allowed Ba'al|to escape, but cost the lives of many of our brothers! {55271}{55340}They did not die in vain. {55642}{55716}My rash actions were neccessary.|I'm sure you'll agree. {55717}{55821}Yes, you may muse about what might have been. {55824}{55903}But the fact remains, it was my men who captured Ba'al. {55951}{56023}Enjoy your shortlived taste of freedom. {56050}{56174}You were born slaves and slaves you will die! {56681}{56780}Ba'al did not escape.|He was captured by Gerak's forces. {56822}{56865}Well yes and no. {56866}{56976}He was dragged into the Council chamber and|executed before my very eyes. There is no doubt. {56977}{57071}Teal'c. We secured Ba'al's compound|and searched the premises. {57072}{57181}In the basement, we discovered a lab containing|equipment and data related to genetic replication. {57182}{57288}It's very possible the Ba'al you saw|die in Dakara, was just a clone. {57289}{57366}The real Ba'al could still be out there. {57485}{57516}Where you going? {57541}{57594}To take a much needed rest. {57595}{57654}Don't you think you should go back to Dakara? {57655}{57704}Let those Jaffa know the truth? {57725}{57753}No. {57762}{57916}To reveal this at this time would seem little more|than an attempt to tarnish Gerak's hard fought victory. {57917}{57945}Teal'c. {57975}{58002}It's the truth. {58010}{58070}Regardless. They will not listen. {58082}{58161}For the time being, their hearts belong to Gerak. {58467}{58568}{Y:i}At present, there are more questions|than answers in the events surrounding {58569}{58662}{Y:i}the gas line explosion that claimed|the Helsian Tower in downtown Seattle. {58667}{58867}{Y:i}What we do know so far is that at approximately|12:45 this afternoon, local fire and emergency|crews were dispatched to the scene. {58868}{58987}{Y:i}An evacuation order was given and|the building and surrounding areas were evacuated. {58988}{59147}{Y:i}Two hours later, when reporters|were permitted to return to the area,|all that remained was a heap of rubble. {59150}{59228}{Y:i}Surrounded as it was by taller highrises, {59229}{59303}there were no eyewitnesses|to the building's destruction. {59304}{59438}{Y:i}No one saw or heard the explosion and|as a result, conspiracy theories abound. {59439}{59547}{Y:i}Some have pointed out that the amount of|rubble at the site is significantly less than... {59560}{59656}Over six hundred channels and nothing to watch. {59797}{59842}Think I'll turn in. {59852}{59911}We have a big day ahead of us tomorrow.
