All language subtitles for Stargate.SG-1.S09E02.Avalon.Pt2.720p

Previously, on Stargate SG-1.

Who's that?
Lieutenant Colonel
Cameron Mitchell.

The individual I got
this from assured me

that the treasure
it describes is
here on Earth.

These bracelets
link us together.

The tablet is mine,
and I want my fair share
of what it leads to.

Merlin?

King Arthur and the Knights
of the Round Table Merlin?

Yes.
Was an Ancient?

Welcome, ye Knights
of the Round Table.

Prove ye worthy,
and all shall be revealed.

This has to be a test.

I think we're supposed
to arrange the stones
in some sort of order.

What? We're already trapped
in here.

How much worse can it get?

Do you ever get
a bad feeling
about something?

Think!
You are the expert
on all things Ancient.

You didn't care
about that two minutes ago.

"Let's try this pot.
How about this one?"

So think!
I'm thinking!

Sorry, could you possibly
think a little bit faster?

The universe is infinite.

No doubt it's
deliberately ironic

that we're in
an ever-decreasing space.

It's the second part
of an ancient proverb,

there is only one truth,
the universe is infinite.

How does that help us?
There's only one truth,

this pot says
the treasure is in this pot.

It's not in either of them.

I know. We did it wrong.

So we have to see
if we can do it again.

There is only one truth.
The universe is infinite.

Therefore the statement
about the treasure

being in this pot
has to be false.

So the treasure must be in...

Wow. Good thing you know
your Ancient proverbs,
otherwise we'd be...

Mitchell.
Teal'c.

You know, feel free
to jump in here anytime.

Teal'c!

Daniel Jackson!

Hey, we--we got
a little problem in here!

W-What's the puzzle?

There's eight stones
with symbols on them

and some Ancient writing.

I think it is...

Describe the writing!

Uh, "U"
with a square over it.

Chair with a square,
upside down backwards "L."

Call that seven.
Squares unevenly stacked,

that chair thing again,
big "N" and sad face.

Uh, re-reflect.
It means...
It means reflect.

Reflect?

Reflect on
the Eightfold Path.

Buddhism teaches
an Eightfold Path
to enlightenment.

Yeah, that tells me
exactly nothing!

I'm sorry I--I can't help

if I can't see the symbols
on the stones

you're supposed to put
in order.

Reflect on the Eightfold.

Reflect on the Eight...

Four.

Six.

Teal'c!

Look,
I didn't hear any screaming
or squishing sounds, so...

You did it.

Yeah. Thanks.

The, uh, symbols were actually
the numbers one through eight

and their mirror image.

All right.

We passed the test,
so this should work.

I should have known
it wouldn't be that easy.

Weird.

You... You done this before?

Uh, fight
a knight in armor?

- No, can't say that I have.
- Well, you're doing good.

Took a little fencing
in college.

Okay, I could use
a little help.

It appears to be
a hologram.

A hologram?

Jeez.

I don't think
it actually cut you.

Well, it hurt like hell.

Oh.

I don't know.

I don't think
he's actually that good.

Okay, so I flunked fencing.

Colonel Mitchell,
your sword.

Okay, that thing
is going to kill him.

Everybody,
get to the rings!

Okay, that's enough
for today.

No. I can do this.

Oh, come on.

That's gotta be it.

I don't understand.
We solved the riddles.

Well, he solved one

and he solved one
and he won the fight.

And what? Nothing?

But you're the only one
who defeated the knight.

That sword was obviously
designed to sense

whoever pulled it
from the stone.

What if there's sensors
detecting us?

Are you suggesting
that we should leave?

It's worth a try.

All right.

If nothing happens,
just join us.

What happened?

The whole place
is collapsing.

We must have done
something wrong.

What did you take?

What?
Truth of spirit.

I resent...
Truth of spirit.
What'd you take?

Worth it.

We are not going to let her
keep that, are we?

No.
Good.

Well, that figures.
A roomful of gold and jewels

and Dr. Daniel Jackson
finds the one book.

So, what's it about?

Oh, actually, it's a story.

It's, uh,
written like fiction.

Once upon a time...

"Once upon a time
there was a race of people

"that went on a great journey
through space.

"Across the universe.
They were called the Altera.

"After much time,"
and I think this means
thousands of years,

"they found
a great belt of stars."

And they lived
happily ever after.

Have you found something,
Daniel Jackson?

It says that the Alterans
named their new home Avalon

and that they built
many Astria Porta.

Stargates.
Yes.

The Ancients built
the stargates.

Well, it stands to reason
that they weren't always
called the Ancients.

What do you care?
You got your treasure.

Hmm. Let's see
what's of more value.

A few gold trinkets
that apparently
I won't be allowed to keep

or previously undiscovered
secrets

about the gate builders,

the most powerful race
to ever inhabit the galaxy.

And you realize
what this could mean?

Well, we've always presumed
that the Ancients

were the first evolution
of humans in this galaxy.

But--But this...

This is the first evidence
suggesting they came here

long ago from somewhere
far, far away.

Yes.

Colonel Mitchell.

One of these things
is not like the others.

It's much, much more
than that.

W-We know the Ancients left
their galaxy for Pegasus

and returned later
when they lost the war
to the Wraith.

But what happened to them?

I thought they ascended.

Some did that we know,
but what if the others
went home?

Even if they didn't,
the book I read suggested
that the Alterans

left a civilization behind.

And your point is?

My point is that
we haven't met
a single living Ancient

who was willing
to share their knowledge
freely with us

and there could be
an entire advanced
civilization of them out there

somewhere in another galaxy.

Isn't that why
we're doing this,
all of this?

The Stargate program,
the budget?

So we can go out
and meet new races,
gather advanced technology,

possibly learn
about ourselves
in the process?

Oh, come on.
You do it to meet women.

She has a point, sir.

I've been thinking
I need to get out

on an offworld mission
or two.

Yeah. Just to get
the feel for it.

"Always do everything you ask
of those you command."

Patton.

Very good.
Good movie.

Laugh if you want to,
but I believe
finding these Alterans

and where they came from
should be our top priority
from this point forward.

They are the gate builders.

Nobody's laughing,
Dr. Jackson.

The universe is
a big place.

Tell me where they are
and how to get there,

and I'll order you to go.

No, no, I'm-- I'm not saying
this is going to be easy.

I mean, i-if they're
from a distant galaxy,

our network of stargates
might not even connect.

And even if it does,

we know the massive
power requirements
necessary to dial Pegasus

and they're relatively close
in intergalactic terms.

But on the bright side, uh,

according to the text
we found in
the Glastonbury cavern,

the Ancient device
we discovered
may be capable

of intergalactic
communication.

Thank you, Dr. Jackson.

I'm sure
you'll keep me posted.

Colonel.
General.

He has no idea
what you just said.

Someone wanna tell me
why she's still on my base?

And, uh, yes, I did.

Well, I think
it's incredible.

The Jaffa of the Onac Ka
equal as many

as all the other
regional coalitions.

And they strongly support
Gerak.

Of this I am aware.

If we allow them
even one more vote

based on unconfirmed
military strength,

the Council will be
in Gerak's hands.

Until proper inspections...

Rak'nor!

I'm sorry.
We are all working very hard.

It just seems as though
Gerak is winning.

Bra'tac and Ryac
are negotiating
with coalitions

who have yet to declare
their allegiance.

I did not fight
for the freedom of all Jaffa

only to have it
corrupted by a few
power-hungry individuals.

Nor did I.

I just do not understand

why you've chosen to spend
so much time with the Tau'ri

at such a critical stage.

My friends from the Tau'ri
are largely responsible
for the Jaffa being free.

And as thanks,
they have been treated
with mistrust and disrespect.

Until all Jaffa see
that the old ways
are not the future,

I will do
whatever I need to do
to enlighten them.

And how does chasing
Ancient history do that?

Ancient knowledge
is what defeated

the Goa'uld
and the Replicators.

And I believe that one day
it will unite the Jaffa
in a nation of peace.

I will prove it.

I hope so.

I have been
around the galaxy
long enough to know

that knowledge is power.

And understanding
the technology

that was left behind
by the Ancients

is the most powerful
knowledge around.

And if you think I'm gonna
stay linked with you

for the rest of
my natural...

Focus.
Maybe we should focus

on the task at hand.

Yeah. Well,

the device obviously has
a power source

and, uh, I don't think
it's been depleted.

Okay, when I read this was
a communication device

I realized the shape
of these recess spaces
looked familiar.

These stones are actually
an Ancient form
of communication device

that links the users
psychically,

allowing them to see
through each other's eyes.

It appears that they're
actually meant to be used

in conjunction
with this terminal.

So what happens
when you attach the stones?

We're going to find out.

Uh, these stones
were originally set

for General O'Neill
and one Joe Spencer.

Barber from Indiana.

Yeah, weird guy.

I read the file.

W-Well, anyway,
after a lot of tedious,

although I must say
ultimately very
brilliant, uh, work

if I do say so myself,

I was able to reset
the stones.

Don't they have to be
activated by someone
with the Ancient gene?

Same file.

Well, that's what
we thought at first,

but no, like a lot
of Ancient technology

the stones actually
just need to be initialized.

By someone with the gene?
That's a guess.

No, you're right.

Uh, which these obviously
have been.

So any one of us
can take the pony ride.

Yeah, and I figured
that was gonna be me.

I mean, I did miss
the Daedalus for this, so...

You're gonna dine out
on that for a while?

Yeah, yeah.
Like you wouldn't believe.

Well, no one's gonna make
an argument against that.

You are the world's
"foremost" expert
on the Ancients.

But we got two stones.

Yes, and this one's mine.

Thank you.

Excuse me.
How do you figure that?

Well, Daniel and I
are linked.

I'll just point out
for the record,
we don't have to be.

He's only guessing
that this device is
for communication.

But what if it's
a transporter of some kind

and he gets whisked away
and can't get back?

Actually, we have done
a fair bit of research
on this device

and I can say
with absolute...

Relative certainty...

Look, we have studied
devices like this for years.

And at some point,
ultimately, you just
have to turn it on.

I'm gonna give it a try.
Where he goes, I go.

I'm not going anywhere.
So he thinks.

Communication device.

I'm going to watch
from the observation room.

All right. Good luck.

So, what do we do?

Well, I'm guessing,
we just put
these two stones

in any two of these spots.

Any two?

Well,
there aren't any markings
to indicate otherwise.

So, any two.

And...

Med Team to Science Lab One.

Hello.
Please don't be afraid.

My name is Daniel Jackson.

It's me. Vala.

Okay.

Not a transporter.

Where are we?

I don't know.

But I think we're in them.

Blood pressure
and heart rate
are normal.

Pupils are slightly dilated.

Now, we're sure
this is because
of the device?

They also passed out before
when they were separated
because of the bracelets.

The reaction was
virtually instantaneous

after the device
was activated.

Anyway, there's no
discernible energy rays

and no measurable radiation
being emitted, so...

And we've found
no contagions.
All right.

I wanna get an EEG going,

but my first impression here
is that they're in
some kind of sleep state.

Maybe we should
disconnect the stones.

Uh, for all we know,
this could be
perfectly normal.

I mean, this could be the way
the device actually works.

And could you give me
some time here

before we go messing around
with that thing anymore.

I wouldn't call
it messing around.

Look, for all we know,
disconnecting the stones

could put them
in further jeopardy.

So how are things
on Dakara?

About as well as here.

I don't understand.

This is an odd
communication device.

I mean, I can't talk
to this poor woman.

I have no access
to her--her mind,

her thoughts,
her memories.

I'm just inside of her,
looking out through her eyes.

Yeah. Jack and Joe Spencer
described the experience

as having visions
of what was happening
to the other.

Were they ever
in total control
of each other's bodies?

No. But they weren't
using the stones

in conjunction
with the Ancient
terminal either.

It's possible it was meant
to work this way

so that we can
communicate with others

without intruding
on the minds of those
we're connected to.

They're just
temporary transmitters.

Do you think we're actually
in another galaxy?

I don't know.

Why these people?

I don't know.

Well, maybe it's just me,
but this house,

these clothes...

We don't look
the way I'd expect
the Ancients to look.

No.

What do you suppose
their names are?

Harrid and Sallis.

How do you know that?

Well, because it...

It says so, uh, right here.

It says, "This is the home

"of Harrid
and Sallis Cicera."

Wait, I missed that.
You--You mumbled it.
No, I didn't.

Well, you said something
that I couldn't understand.

Well, I di-didn't say it
because I don't really know
what it means.

So I don't want
to say it out loud
'cause I know what it means.

Well, go on.
Nuptial. It means nuptial.

As in we're...
Married. Yeah.

Let's go look outside.

Not quite what I imagined

when I pictured a civilization
of gate builders.

No.

Something tells me
this is not the same people

who built a spaceship
capable of traveling
across the universe.

Above the sun.
Harrid, Sallis.

What?

Uh, I think that means
good morning.

Above the sun to you!

Above the sun?

Uh, I think
he's speaking Ancient.

I think the communicator
is translating for us.

I couldn't read the sign.

Maybe it only works
for spoken language.

See you at prostration.

Prostration it is!

Prostration it is.

So, what do you want
to do, Harrid?

Or is it Sallis?

People are starting
to stare.

Should we walk about
and try to play along?

Hmm?

Nope. Not what I was
expecting at all.

Me neither.

On the bright side,
I think he was looking at me
when he said Harrid.

Please.
He was staring at me
the whole time.

Hey. Come in.

Now, I can't decide if I--
if I like the desk here.

Where else are you
gonna put it?

Out in the hall?

Daniel and Vala are stable.

Based on rapid eye movements
and brainwave patterns,

I'm guessing it's actually
some kind of induced
dream-like condition.

Dr. Jackson believes
the device was used
for long-range communication.

Is it possible
that's what they're doing?

Talking to someone
somewhere out there?

I don't know.

I'm heading to the mess.

I'm good, thanks.

I should get back
to Daniel and Vala.

Of course.
Just keep me posted.

Mmm-hmm.

Carolyn?

You seem to be
settling in okay.

I don't know if I'll ever
get used to this place.
It's pretty, uh...

Yeah.
Yeah.

And, uh, working for you
makes this whole thing
just that much more bizarre.

Well, you didn't have
to take the job, you know.

Oh, are you kidding,
who could refuse it?

Besides, at the time,

General O'Neill
didn't tell me
you'd be my boss.

He's funny that way.

Hmm. Ha ha!

By the way, the desk
looks fine the way it is.

Hmm. Really?

You never were happy
with anything the way it was.

All hallow the Ori.

All hallow the Ori.

On their great power

we shall meditate
herein this day.

Prostration it is.

We must meet.

By the portico of light
at the hour of bly.

Speak not.

All greatness
that is the Ori.

You guide us and give meaning
to our daily lives.

We beseech you,
give us strength.

All hallow the Ori.

All hallow the Ori.

All hallow the Ori.

Well, that was fun.

Six hours of prostration.

Why don't we just tell
someone who we are

and what's going on?

I mean, isn't that
the whole point to this,
to communicate?

I don't think
these people are gonna
entirely understand.

Hey, did you hear
what the guy said

when we first came
to the service?

Something about meeting.

The portico of light
on the hour of bly.

What's that supposed
to mean?

I have no idea.

What are you looking for?

I don't know.

Some reason as to
why we're in these
particular people,

these specific bodies.

I mean, it can't be
totally random.

Well, I have a more
pressing question.

Do you have any idea
how we're supposed
to detach from them?

No. That's another thing
that's got me worried.

Have you tried?

Nothing.

I mean, it doesn't seem
to be something

I can just will
to make happen.

Maybe it's about
removing the stones
from the device on Earth.

Yeah, unfortunately,
we can't tell

the people on Earth
that we need them

to remove them.

I mean, we'll just
have to wait for them

to figure that out
for themselves.

Maybe they have already
and it had no effect.

I'm just gonna rule out
that possibility.

Do you think these people
are in our bodies?

I don't know.
I mean...

This can't be
how the technology
is supposed to work.

Hey.

Yeah. It's the book
that some of the villagers
were walking around with.

It says on the front, uh,

"The Book of Origins.
Blessed are the Ori."

I think you should
take a look at it.

Oh, I think
I've seen enough.

I mean,
prostration for six hours.

Give us strength.

You know,
it's all very clear.

I think you'd find it
really interesting.

Yeah? When did you start
being able to read Ancient?

I can't.

But this looked familiar.

Thank those full of value.

I was worried
when you did not meet me.

Yes. Sorry about that.

Why did you not meet me?

Why are you not
sharing leaves

with the Administrator's
wife?

I forgot.

We are already suspected.

We must not alter
our behavior.

Suspected of what?

Harrid, what ails you?

Did I not know better,
I'd fear you're trying
to entrap me.

No. I--I wouldn't dream
of trying to...

Entrap you? How?

Stop this. Please.

Okay, you know what?

Uh, please.
Would you...
Would you sit?

Go with me.

My name is Daniel Jackson
and I am inside the mind
of Harrid.

I am able to speak
through him

by use of a communication
technology

that we believe was first
constructed and used

by a race
known as the Alterans.

And I'm Vala Mal Doran.

How you doing?

By the stars.
Forgive me. I am Fannis.

Uh, nice to meet you.

We're from a--a place
called Earth.

Can I speak with Harrid?

No. Uh, his consciousness
appears to be suppressed

so long as we're connected.

Harrid always suspected
the stones were a means
of communication.

You know about the stones?

We are curators.
Investigators of the past.

The stones were discovered
some time ago
in what we believe

are the remains
of an ancestral burial ground
not far from here.

Why are you hiding them?

Such investigation
is sacrilege.

You're not allowed
to investigate
your own history?

Such a history contradicts
The Book of Origin.

You're heretics.

We have uncovered evidence

that we believe proves

a race of humans predates
our supposed creation
by the Ori.

Excuse me. Daniel.

What if these gods,
the--the Ori,

are the people left behind
by the Alterans?

You think they ascended?

It's possible.

The Alterans left
a long, long time ago.

And what we know
of the Ancients,

they learned to evolve
and ascend.

What if the people
who remained here did, too?

That would make
these people subsequent
evolution of humans,

which is apparently
what happened in our galaxy

after the Ancients
we know ascended.

And it would explain
why they're not as advanced

as we might expect.

No, but the religion
doesn't fit the profile.

The ascended beings I know
don't pose as gods.

I mean, that's
the one explicit rule
that they do follow

is that they don't
meddle in the affairs

of the lower planes
of existence.

The Ori are not posing.

We do not doubt their power.

Just their word
and intention.

The power is as real
as the strength and belief
in all followers.

You are late for leaves
with the Administrator's wife.

Sallis and she
are acquaintances.

So, what should I do?

Can you not disconnect
and allow Sallis to return?

No. Apparently,
we can't do that.

Then you must pose as Sallis,
or we will be discovered.

I can do that.

The Council has
already taken respite.

The vote was quick.

I delivered yours by proxy.

Gerak's motion was resolved
by a slim majority.

The Jaffa will be ruled
by High Council.

Votes will be attributed
to the various
coalition representatives

based on military assets.

Making Gerak...

The new leader
of the Jaffa Nation.

You said the Ori
may have ascended.
What does that mean?

Where we come from,

some people who used to look
a lot like us

evolved physically
and mentally so much

that they found a way
to shed their physical bodies

and live as energy
on another higher plane
of existence.

Some called it enlightenment

and came with it
a much greater understanding
of the universe

and all its knowledge.

Now, this happened
a long time ago.

And I believe
that those people

may have originally
come from here.

And those ascended beings,
as you call them,

do not guide you
and ask that you
worship them?

No. In fact, they believe
so strongly in free will

that they would not intervene
and use their knowledge

even if that meant
the destruction
of an entire galaxy

full of us regular,
old humans.

Such is not the case
with the Ori.

Yes. So they ask
that you worship them

and yet conceal the truth
of your existence from you.

That is not all.

What are you gonna do?

We're gathering
as much evidence as we can.

Our hope is that one day
we will have enough proof

to convince even
the most devout believers.

In the meantime,
we meet in secret

and share with those we trust
what we have learned.

We keep hidden
those artifacts
which prove our claims

in case one or more of us
are discovered.

How many of you are there?

A few.
Our numbers are growing.

Some believe the fact
that we have not yet
been discovered

is further proof
that the Ori are not
all-powerful and all-knowing.

Others wonder
if they are just giving us
the opportunity

to see the error of our ways
and repent.

Crowd gathers at the Ara.

It's an altar?

I cannot be seen with you.

Excuse me.

He spoke
to the sky and said,

"And the people shall
deliver unto you the wicked

"for your divine judgment

"where their sins
shall be weighed
in the balance

"of all that is just
and true."

Let go of me.
Get your hands off me!

Daniel.
What happened?

Didn't go so well.

Yeah,
I can see that.

Excuse me.

Harrid, stand back.

Sallis has been overcome.

No, she hasn't.

If you'll just let me
explain it.

Listen to me!

Fear not,
for the Ori see all.

Outside and within.

If your heart is pure
and your devotion unwavering

they will protect you.

They will cleanse
your being

and you will be taken
to be with them forever.

If not, may the fire
burn you down
to the ground

and lay you in the dust.

Fire?

Hallowed are the Ori.

Her heart rate is 140.
She's in distress.

Daniel's B.P. and heart rate
are increasing, too.

Pull the stones.

I can't.

What the hell
did you say?

I think at first it was
what I didn't say.

You see,
apparently there's
a blessing

you're supposed to recite
over the leaves

before you drink,
which nobody warned me about.

Then I think
it's what I did say.

I was trying
to politely explain
what was going on

and then his wife
started screaming

and accusing me
of being overcome,

at which point
I believe I suggested

she might want to think about
procreation with herself.

Oh! Oh!

Listen!
Please, listen to me.

You have to believe me!

This is not
what it looks like.

Sallis is not possessed,
okay?

Now, this is gonna
sound crazy,

but, uh, we're from
another galaxy.

That's right,
we're-- we're using
a communication technology

that allows us
to take over a body
from very far away

and then make us talk to you.

We just wanna talk to you.

Okay. This is getting worse.
I'm administering a sedative.

Hopefully,
it'll calm things down.

Daniel!
Okay, listen to me!

Listen to me!
You have to believe me!

You're killing
an innocent person!

Daniel!

Blessed are those
that deliver us from evil.

No!

- No!
- No!

She's in V-fib.
Code blue.

Charging to 200.

No! Don't-- Don't shoot.

You got a better idea?

You might--
You might cause a surge.
You could kill them both.

You might detonate
the power source.

Now--Now, come on.

Clear!

Charge to 360. Clear!

Still in V-fib.
Charging again. Clear!

I've got no pulse.
She's gone into asystole.

That's negative.

No change.
It's still rising.

I'm calling it.

She's dead?

I'm sorry.

His vitals have stabilized
for the moment.

You can't pry
the stones off?

No.

And you don't want me
to shoot it.

No.

Then how do we unplug
this thing?

I don't know.

Brilliant.

At the very least,
we need to find a way

to get that bracelet off
of Dr. Jackson.

They're still linked.

And without Vala, he'll...

She's got a heartbeat.

Daniel?

Are you okay?

I've got tingles all over.

And don't flatter yourself,

I'm pretty sure
it's not you.

Thank you.

Thank the Ori.

Stand.

You will come with me.

I think he wants us
to follow him.

Can you walk?

If it means
getting away from here.

Hallowed are the children
of the Ori.

Hallowed are we.

Hallowed are the Ori.

Hallowed are the Ori.
