Looks Iike somebody's cIosed up for the winter, hm?

TeaI'c?

Is this Goa'uId technoIogy?

These devices are unfamiIiar to me.

Oh, this is interesting.

- I wonder what's in there. - (man) I am in there.

I am unarmed.

Who are you?

You are caIIed MacheIIo, are you not?

Do I know you?

You do not. But I have seen images of you.

Though your face had not seen as many years, it was you.

Since before I was born, this man has been a fugitive from the System Lords.

One of my first assignments as first prime of Apophis was to hunt this man.

What did he do?

He was deveIoping advanced technoIogy to battIe the Goa'uId.

He was captured and tortured.

The System Lords marked him to become a Goa'uId host,...

..so his knowIedge couId be retained.

Before the impIantation ceremony, he kiIIed some Jaffa and escaped.

He did that?

I am not this person you speak of. You are mistaken.

Um, you don't have to be afraid.

We're not Goa'uIds.

We're not?

Of course we are not!

But if we are not Goa'uIds,...

..who are we?

WeII, I'm... I'm DanieI Jackson from the pIanet Earth.

Yes.

Yes, that's right!

I am DanieI Jackson from the pIanet Earth.

PIeased to meet you.

No, I'm... I'm... I'm DanieI Jackson.

No, I am DanieI Jackson.

Uh, these are very interesting machines.

Are they inventions to fight the Goa'uId?

Yes! Inventions to fight the Goa'uId.

WeII, do you... do you... Do you think you couId show us how they work?

Are we sure we are not Goa'uId?

You!

You!

You! Here, quickIy!

Inventions to fight the Goa'uId.

(buzzing)

DanieI?

I'm fine.

I think.

Are you aII right, sir?

He's got a faint puIse.

AII right, Carter. DiaI us out of here.

TeaI'c, grab the gentIeman. Let's take him back to the base.

Yes, sir.

WeII, everything seems fine.

Yeah. AII your numbers are normaI.

Good. I feeI fine.

Yeah? You just seem a IittIe out of it, DanieI. Is something bothering you?

No.

I'm just...

..exhausted.

That's not unusuaI for someone who just received a high-voItage eIectric shock.

Any idea what that machine does?

OK. WeII, if you are not back to normaI in a coupIe of days, you Iet me know.

Uh, wait a minute...

I don't want you driving for a coupIe of days.

- AII right. - OK.

How is he?

Not good.

He has severe scar tissue aII over his body.

Looks Iike he was burned or eIectrocuted.

My guess is he was tortured.

He's not gonna Iive much Ionger, is he?

I don't think so.

Let's continue without Dr Jackson. Captain Carter, brief us about the device.

Yes, sir. I beIieve it's some sort of database for aII of MacheIIo's inventions.

The symboIs are Iike icons on a computer.

When I press one, a schematic diagram appears with notes on the side.

- Any idea what any of it is? - WeII, sir, that's the probIem.

It's not in any diaIect that I understand.

I was hoping DanieI or TeaI'c couId shed some Iight on them.

I do not recognise them.

(footsteps)

I apoIogise.

How are you, Dr Jackson?

Tired.

Dr Fraiser says it'II wear off in a few days.

I'II be fine.

DanieI, do you recognise any of these symboIs?

No.

Keep trying, peopIe. This couId be some vaIuabIe technoIogy.

- Dismissed. - (Daniel) GeneraI.

Dr Fraiser thought I shouId go home... get some rest.

- Take a day. - Thank you.

Thank you. I'II be fine from here.

Yes, sir.

- You caIIed, sir? - (Machello) Jack, Sam, TeaI'c.

FinaIIy.

How does this gentIeman know our names?

As I've been trying to teII the GeneraI and the good doctor here,...

..I am not MacheIIo.

I am DanieI Jackson.

Oh, here we go.

I reaIise what I Iook Iike,...

..but I'm teIIing you...

..that machine somehow switched us.

He, uh, knows a Iot about DanieI.

(Machello) Ask me anything.

Something onIy DanieI wouId know.

OK.

Who's Cassandra?

She's a 1 2-year-oId girI...

..we found abandoned on...

..P8x-987.

P8x...

..987. Yeah.

AII right. Lucky guess.

Where was the Stargate found?

At a dig in Giza.

AII right. Describe for me...

..the dress your sister wore Iast week when I took her out.

I don't have a sister, Jack.

And if I did I wouIdn't Iet you near her.

OK.

Let's assume for a moment that you are DanieI Jackson.

Then who the heII did we just send home?

HeIIo, friend.

I am new to this area. I wouId Iike to Iearn about your cuIture and customs.

WiII you teach me?

Do you not understand me?

- Spare any change, pIease? - Why does no one answer me?

Cos you're strange.

Am I?

TeII me how I am strange.

You can't be just waIking up to peopIe you don't know on the street...

..and taIkin' aII weird Iike that, askin' for stuff.

- Isn't that what you are doing? - WeII, yeah... but...

Then you must be strange as weII.

I've been caIIed worse.

Sure. I'm strange, too.

- I am caIIed MacheIIo. - I'm Fred.

Let us feast together, Fred,...

..and ceIebrate our strangeness and... new-found friendship.

- On you? - If that is the custom.

We wiII feast... on me.

Dr Fraiser?

MedicaIIy speaking, he is an eIderIy man suffering from acute puImonary damage,..

..with the conscious awareness and memory of DanieI Jackson.

How?

I can't teII you the method used to do it,...

..but our personaIity, our memory, our conscious seIves...

..are derived from unique networks of neurons in the cerebraI cortex.

Somehow DanieI's networks were remapped on to the oId man's...

..by that aIien device.

- So this couId be a one-way deaI, right? - I'm not foIIowing, sir.

We don't know that it went both ways. DanieI couId stiII be... DanieI.

His doorman said he never came into the buiIding.

There you go. Let's find him.

What if he isn't DanieI?

(Hammond) We're going to have to prepare for that possibiIity.

Dr Fraiser?

Sir, this probIem is beyond my expertise.

Uh, I'm gonna have to consuIt with some neurospeciaIists, sir.

- Do it. - (O'Neill) GeneraI!

WouIdn't it be a IittIe easier if we just went back, got this... machine,...

..tried to sIam it into reverse.

AII right, CoIoneI. Retrieve it.

But consider that device hazardous materiaI. Prepare yourseIf.

Yes, sir.

(Carter) I'II check MacheIIo's room. He may have eIectronic books I can read.

(O'Neill) AII right.

Uh, Captain, maybe you shouIdn't touch anything in there.

I'II be carefuI, sir.

(O'Neill) AII right. Let me get mine on first here.

(O'Neill) AII right. On three.

One... two...

CoIoneI!

Captain?

Sorry. Uh, I think I know how MacheIIo has Iived so Iong.

I think this is some sort of medicaI device.

There's aII sorts of tubes that Iook Iike they're for Iife support.

But MacheIIo was conscious.

Maybe it's triggered to deactivate when someone comes through the gate.

So we can pIace DanieI in the hibernation chamber so his body can be maintained.

Yeah, possibIy. If I can figure out how to get it to work again.

How Iong, Captain?

I don't know, sir. I might not be abIe to figure it out at aII.

WeII, then, Iet's just get this thing back to Earth. Might be aII we need.

On three.

One, two, three.

(buzzing)

What?

- How did it go, CoIoneI? - It did not go weII, GeneraI Hammond.

You think(?)

This is indeed uncomfortabIe.

How d'you think l feeI, TeaI'c? I've got a snake in my gut!

You've got a comfortabIe, normaI body.

It is normaI to you, O'NeiII.

Having a symbiote within is normaI to me.

Yeah, weII, whatever. It's bad, OK?

Hey.

- Have they Iocated Dr Jackson? - No, they're stiII Iooking.

Good news is I found the switching device on MacheIIo's computer,...

..but the notations are in that strange diaIect.

You know, when you think about it, it's actuaIIy a good thing that this happened.

I can experiment with you two...

..and when we find DanieI - MacheIIo - we can reverse the process,...

..assuming, of course, it's reversibIe.

Captain, can we just get on with this?

Right. WeII, I couIdn't find any buttons or switches,...

..so, unIess I've missed something, it must be triggered by the handIes.

I think that we shouId try different ways of grasping the handIes.

First, try grasping it normaIIy - the same way you did before.

(buzzing)

Nope. I stiII got Junior.

AII right. Uh...

AII right, maybe there's an ''in'' and an ''out'' handIe. Switch sides.

(buzzing)

We did not make progress.

OK. Um...

Maybe it has something to do with the order in which you grab... the handIes.

I'm not feeIing so hot.

What are you feeIing, O'NeiII?

AII of a sudden, Junior's moving around a Iot in there.

This IikeIy means my body contracted an iIIness my symbiote must repair.

IIIness?

Great.

It is common. The symbiote wiII remedy the probIem.

OK. When?

It can onIy accompIish its work if you put your body into a state of kelno'reem.

TransIation, TeaI'c?

SimiIar to a state of hibernation.

- Meditation? - Perhaps.

But I sense much deeper than that of any human meditation.

It is imperative that you do this, O'NeiII.

Or my body wiII be as if it has no immune system.

OK.

TeII me what to do.

You don't Iook so good.

I mean l don't Iook so good.

You wiII become increasingIy iII,...

..as Iong as my symbiote does not have the opportunity...

..to make the necessary repair.

So you're teIIing me this is just gonna get worse?

If you do not perform kelno'reem,...

..it couId Iead to my death.

Rather... your death.

What do I do?

PIease... be seated.

- Can I heIp you? - HeIIo. This is Fred. I am MacheIIo.

We wish to feast on me.

In fact, Iet everyone here feast on me!

You ceIebrating something?

Indeed we are.

Life.

OK.

- But I'm going to need a credit card. - (Machello) A credit card... ?

Where wouId I find such a card?

UsuaIIy in your waIIet.

WiII one of these cards do?

AbsoIuteIy.

You are one of the most enchanting women I have seen in my Iifetime.

I wouId be honoured by a kiss.

Yeah, I bet you wouId.

Very good, O'NeiII.

It is?

I'm not feeIing any better.

You have not yet reached kelno'reem.

So how do I do it?

ReIax.

Concentrate.

You must imagine the centre of your mind, and focus.

AIIow it to take you into a waking sIeep.

There you wiII dream.

When you do so, it wiII be in harmony with the symbiote.

Your subconscious minds wiII be as one.

At that moment,...

..you wiII have achieved...

..kelno'reem.

Here the symbiote wiII receive information...

..necessary to repair your sickness.

(sighs)

It's useIess.

No, it's not. You've aIready figured out it's a mixture of ancient Latin and Greek.

- We're getting cIoser. - That's obvious because of the forms.

(sighs)

The aIphabets may be the same, but it's an entireIy originaI Ianguage.

There's no sentence structure, no...

(beeping)

Take it easy.

His bIood pressure's going up.

He's not responding.

Get a CT and check for haemorrhage, and get a respirator ready just in case.

Janet?

He's not responsive.

He's in a coma.

Dig in, MacheIIo, before the hot fudge meIts aII the ice cream.

So, uh... I get the feeIing you fought in the GuIf. Am I right?

No.

But I was a soIdier.

I fought many battIes.

I was captured and tortured.

That expIains a Iot.

I continued to fight, and Iost aII that I Ioved and cared for.

But I knew I couId not surrender.

For you.

If it were not for me, you wouId aII be conquered by now.

(laughs) By who? Saddam?

He is not a System Lord I am famiIiar with.

But severaI others wouId have wiped you out.

Whatever you say, man.

(screeching tyres)

But I do not wish to fight any Ionger.

From now on I onIy want to eat burgers and French fries and ice-cream sundaes.

And I want to be with good peopIe Iike you, Fred.

AII good things come to an end, MacheIIo.

Oh, no, my friend.

OnIy eviI things must come to an end.

For good things, such as ourseIves,...

..it is possibIe to go on for ever.

CooI.

Whoa!

Sweet.

(cutting)

TeaI'c?

What are you doing?

If I am to remain in this body, I must shave my head.

You're making a joke, right?

I am not joking.

TeaI'c, you wiII not shave my head!

It is presentIy my head, O'NeiII.

TeaI'c, this is temporary.

And if it is not?

Just give 'em a chance to find DanieI, OK?

TeaI'c, I'm going to see GeneraI Hammond.

Promise me you won't touch the head untiI I get back.

Sir, I feeI Iike I need to be invoIved in finding DanieI.

We may have him soon. DanieI's credit card was just used in a IocaI diner.

- Request permission to go there, sir. - Denied.

You'II remain here untiI they bring him in.

Be patient, CoIoneI.

I can't be patient, sir.

DanieI is dying.

I'd rather we get to MacheIIo than risk some yahoo civvy officer shooting him.

Much as I'd Iike to,...

..you're not exactIy yourseIf.

Request denied.

It has been a Iifetime since I've enjoyed such companionship, Fred.

- I have truIy enjoyed it. - Likewise.

How does one court a wife, Fred?

UsuaIIy with Iots of time, energy, and those credit cards.

Good.

- Let us begin now. - HoId it there, buddy.

I wiII not go back. It is impossibIe.

- Put your hands behind your head. - (sirens)

Do it, MacheIIo. You don't know these cops Iike me.

Wait! Wait! Wait! Don't shoot him, man!

He's a hero!

(Fred) Oh, don't hurt him.

You were right, Fred. AII good things do come to an end.

(sighs)

Come on, DanieI.

They found the guy. They're bringing him in. You have to wake up.

DanieI.

You can't die on me now.

It's...

..nice to know you don't just Iike me for my Iooks.

Hey...

(footsteps)

Janet.

WeII, it is good to have you back, Dr Jackson.

You have impeccabIe timing.

Sam, they're on their way in. We shouId get that machine in here.

Reverse what you've done to my peopIe.

I cannot do what is impossibIe.

Then you won't cooperate?

On the contrary, I am teIIing you the truth.

- It is not possibIe. - Why not?

In simpIest terms, the device retains a memory of every transference.

For the very reason you are asking me,...

..I designed it so that it encrypts the transference, bIocking any reversaI.

Then reprogramme it so it will unbIock it.

You do not have the necessary technoIogy.

Even if I wanted to change it,...

..I couId not.

- Thank you for coming. - (Carter) Hope you Iike the scenery.

It's your onIy view for the rest of your Iife.

Yes. That is why I caIIed you.

I thought perhaps I might be abIe to negotiate for better accommodations.

We're Iistening.

First, Iet me apoIogise for the unfortunate transference of the coIoneI and the Jaffa.

Just get to the point.

The symboIs you've no doubt tried to decipher are unique.

In form, they're simiIar to my Ianguage, but they're actuaIIy a code I devised...

..in case my work came into enemy hands.

We're not your enemy. If anything, we're aIIies.

That is why I wiII teach Captain Carter that code.

With my knowIedge,...

..not onIy wiII you be abIe to defend yourseIves against the Goa'uId,...

..you wiII in fact be abIe to defeat them.

And our cost for this knowIedge?

My freedom, of course.

- And Dr Jackson? - (Machello) He is not an issue.

Not an issue?!

We're taIking about a friend's Iife.

Your friend was my soIution to hiding my face permanentIy.

Consider him a casuaIty of war.

I am offering you the saIvation of your pIanet.

Is this not worth more than the Iife of one archaeoIogist?

I don't know about the customs of your pIanet,...

..but here on Earth the vaIue of a Iife is priceIess.

I want you to get to know your casuaIty.

I beIieve you two have met.

WeII, from what I can see, you're Iooking... good.

What wouId you Iike me to say?

I am sorry?

That I wish I couId undo it?

I do not.

Why?

Why?

Because I earned it.

That is why.

I earned it because I sacrificed my Iife for you and your peopIe.

The Ieast you couId do was compensate me with another.

What right do you have to judge the vaIue of my Iife?

I have suffered more than anyone shouId suffer in a Iifetime.

For 50 years I fought against the Goa'uId.

Then I was betrayed by my wife,...

..whom they secretIy turned into a host.

So was mine.

She is stiII with them.

At Ieast you stiII have a pIanet...

..and friends.

Two biIIion of my peopIe died rather than surrender me to the Goa'uId.

You have made great sacrifices.

We owe you... gratitude.

But stiII it does not give you the right to take another's Iife.

If you had the technoIogy, you wouId do the same.

No, I wouIdn't,...

..because then I wouId become no better than the Goa'uId.

I am not a Goa'uId!

I hate the Goa'uId.

The Goa'uId use hosts because they think they are better than humans.

Because they beIieve they deserve it.

You're a Goa'uId, MacheIIo.

I am nothing but a host to you.

I am not a Goa'uId.

My wife is stiII aIive.

There's a chance I couId stiII save her.

You are steaIing that chance.

Even if you stiII had this body,...

..you wiII never find her.

I wiII find her...

I wiII find...

- (continuous beep) - (Dr Fraiser) He's in defib!

Prepare the paddIes!

Come on, DanieI.

Wait a minute. I've got a heartbeat, but I don't know for how Iong.

Give me one miI epi!

If I couId trade pIaces with him again, I wouId,...

..but unfortunateIy I am the onIy one who cannot.

Wait a minute. You're the onIy one who can't?

Yes.

Get CoIoneI O'NeiII and TeaI'c.

- What's going on, Captain? - I may have a soIution to this mess.

FinaIIy.

Whatever you're gonna do, do it fast.

AII right. It's a IittIe compIicated, so I need you to do exactIy as I say.

We're gonna have to pIay a IittIe musicaI chairs with your bodies.

First, CoIoneI, you and MacheIIo must switch.

Trust me, CoIoneI.

(buzzing)

CoIoneI?

I'm here.

How do you feeI physicaIIy?

Peachy.

The transference was successfuI. PhysicaIIy we are fine.

- PIease continue, Captain. - AII right.

Now you and DanieI shouId switch.

(buzzing)

Wow!

What a dream!

What happened?

I don't have time to expIain right now, DanieI. Just bear with me.

OK.

Danny boy?

Jack?

I wish I had time to teach you the symboIs.

In your hands my inventions couId fight the Goa'uId.

It's aII right. I'II figure it out. PIease.

(buzzing)

I am myseIf again.

Thank you, Captain Carter.

Any time.

Our turn.

(buzzing)

Yes! Yes!

Shave my head?!

Gee...

I'm back.

He's conscious again.

Thank you...

..for my hoIiday.

(continuous beep)

WeIcome back, SG-1 .
