1
00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:03,715
SHEPPARD: Previously
on Stargate Atlantis.
2
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:07,072
BECKETT: You have some Wraith DNA.
3
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:09,196
TEYLA: My father told people
that it was a gift.
4
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:11,591
TODD: They picked up my signal.
5
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:13,079
SHEPPARD: Subspace tracking device.
6
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:14,991
TODD: l had it implanted.
7
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:16,754
The hives are firing on each other.
8
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:18,193
-Are you sure?
-McKAY: Definitely.
9
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:20,191
McKA Y: They're not pulling
any punches, either.
10
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,237
So all it took was the destruction
of my ship for you to finally trust me.
11
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:27,356
No, not true, l still don't trust you.
12
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,751
l've refined the retrovirus
to create the perfect balance,
13
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:35,118
ability well beyond any normal human,
but without the one weakness
14
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,112
that will be the downfall of the Wraith.
15
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,078
The need to feed.
16
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:57,552
l still say we should've brought backup.
17
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,915
Another Jumper,
or a marine unit, something.
18
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,911
This is intended to be
a diplomatic mission, Rodney.
19
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,992
-What kind of message would that send?
-A strong one, hopefully.
20
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,833
Everybody's going to be fine
if they don't panic.
21
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:09,911
Easier said than done.
22
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:12,199
There they are.
23
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,038
My God, how big is that thing?
24
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,156
Never seen a hive in space, huh?
25
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,476
l've never seen one period.
26
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,709
l've seen video logs, but never in person.
27
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,360
Well, you never forget your first.
28
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,510
-They know we're here.
-Apparently.
29
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,114
We're receiving a transmission.
30
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:37,879
Docking instructions.
31
00:01:37,960 --> 00:01:39,916
What? No ''Hello.
Greetings, weary travelers''?
32
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,560
Guess not. So much for the red carpet.
33
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,798
-So, what happens now?
-lf history has taught us anything,
34
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,269
this is the part where we get
double-crossed and taken prisoner.
35
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,920
That will not happen this time, Rodney.
36
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,275
-We were invited, remember?
-And that makes a difference?
37
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,157
(THUDDlNG ON DOOR)
38
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,358
Right on cue.
39
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,190
This looks a little familiar.
40
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:29,712
TODD: Lower your weapons.
41
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,756
My apologies. You understand.
You can't be too careful.
42
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,278
Welcome to my ship.
43
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,350
This is my second-in-command.
44
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,000
l've asked him
to be a part of these discussions.
45
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,469
Please, sit.
46
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:01,592
SHEPPARD: Fruit bowl, nice touch.
47
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,035
Well, we picked them up on our travels.
48
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,477
l thought it would make our discussions
more comfortable.
49
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,109
l hope they prove as delicious
as the farmers who grew them.
50
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,389
All right, let's just get this over with.
51
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,837
So, l understand you have a proposal,
a breakthrough of some kind?
52
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,434
This is Dr. Keller.
She's our chief medical officer,
53
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,590
and she's gonna explain everything to you.
54
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:25,829
Well,
55
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,797
as you may already know,
56
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,475
we recently stumbled across a lab
belonging to Michael,
57
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,154
-the Wraith that we...
-l know who he is.
58
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:39,348
Of course you do.
59
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,353
Word of your success against him
spread rapidly among my kind.
60
00:04:44,840 --> 00:04:46,239
We are very grateful.
61
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,675
Trust me, we didn't do it for you.
62
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,669
Anyway, we recovered a database
from his lab that allowed us
63
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,877
-to continue his research into...
-For what purpose?
64
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,348
We've come up with a gene therapy
that alters Wraith DNA,
65
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,951
in a small but significant way.
66
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,271
ln a nutshell,
we think we can make it so that you,
67
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,113
and any other Wraith we treat,
68
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,913
will never need to feed on humans again.
69
00:05:18,280 --> 00:05:19,759
This is absurd.
70
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,793
Well, actually, it's not as big of a change
as you might think.
71
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:28,519
Your bodies already contain
all the organs necessary to digest food.
72
00:05:28,840 --> 00:05:30,796
Here. Try this.
73
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,837
lf l consume this,
it may give me a moment's pleasure,
74
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:41,551
but it will not sustain me.
75
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,916
But that can change, at least in theory.
76
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,549
Why would we want this?
Of what benefit is it?
77
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:49,868
Well, think about it.
78
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:54,112
lf you put yourself on regular food, you
could give up all those tiresome cullings.
79
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,317
lt would give you a significant advantage
over other hives.
80
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,915
Not to mention l could stop waiting
for the chance to kill you,
81
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:01,989
in theory.
82
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,992
Our current feeding process
gives us strength,
83
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,550
our ability to heal, our longevity.
84
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:14,875
Well, we're not entirely sure
how this change would affect your gifts.
85
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,838
They may continue,
although possibly in a diminished form.
86
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,390
-Possibly?
-lt's difficult to know from lab tests.
87
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,314
We can't be sure until we administer it
88
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,473
to live subjects.
89
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,509
Let's not forget that Michael
spread the modified Hoffan drug
90
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,115
to dozens of worlds, possibly more.
No one knows for sure, right?
91
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,078
Which means that every time you feed,
you're taking a risk.
92
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,232
Bottom line is,
there's not enough food to go around.
93
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,596
That's why you Wraith
are at each other's throats.
94
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,117
So, here's your chance.
95
00:07:01,280 --> 00:07:04,078
This is wrong. We shouldn't be here.
96
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,512
l don't know, from where l was sitting,
things seemed to go pretty well.
97
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:08,635
Yeah.
98
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:11,438
You don't seem too happy about it.
99
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,956
l was just expecting
a little more resistance.
100
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,598
Well, he hasn't said yes yet.
101
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,671
Yeah, but something makes me think
he wants to.
102
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,716
And why not? lt is a reasonable offer.
103
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,552
Why are we thinking of ways to fix them
104
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,278
when we should be
thinking of ways to kill them?
105
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,715
We've been trying to do that
for four years. They're still here.
106
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,836
The Wraith may not
deserve our consideration,
107
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,480
but as John pointed out,
we're not doing this for them.
108
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,994
There's something going on here,
something he's not telling us.
109
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,593
What a surprise.
110
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,039
(RONON POWERS WEAPON)
111
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,033
l'm sorry. Am l disturbing you?
112
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:41,669
Come in.
113
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,271
l have considered your offer.
114
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,273
That was fast.
115
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,957
l believe your idea has merit,
if you can make the treatment work.
116
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:54,109
lt'll work.
117
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,112
Of course, converting a single hive
would be pointless.
118
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,430
lt would make little difference
to the humans of this galaxy
119
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,670
and it would make us pariahs
amongst our own kind.
120
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,751
Wait a minute, l thought you worked
with a whole group of hives.
121
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:08,960
l do, but l may have exaggerated
my position within the alliance.
122
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,396
-He doesn't have the clout.
-Then he's no good to us.
123
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,679
There's only one you need to convince.
124
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,594
Among all the queens in the alliance,
one sits above the rest.
125
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,152
We call her the Primary.
126
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:26,079
The �ber-queen?
127
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,800
Convince her,
and the rest will fall into line.
128
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:29,995
Then, convince her.
129
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,958
She will only speak with another queen.
130
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,032
And your queen was killed last year
in the skies above Atlantis.
131
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:40,318
Regrettably, yes,
but the Primary does not know this.
132
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,588
You bluffed your way into the alliance
133
00:08:45,680 --> 00:08:48,433
and convinced them
you still have a queen?
134
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,317
They would not have
accepted me otherwise.
135
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,676
Up to now, l've been able
to maintain this subterfuge,
136
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,069
but a face-to-face meeting,
137
00:08:58,120 --> 00:08:59,997
that would be difficult.
138
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,912
ln fact, there is only one person
who could help me.
139
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,193
SHEPPARD: This is crazy.
140
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,555
TEYLA: Believe me,
this is not a decision l am taking lightly.
141
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,631
Do you realize what he's asking you to do?
142
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,792
Dr. Keller assures me that the procedure
is completely reversible
143
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:27,271
-and will have no lasting ill-effects.
-l'm not talking about the procedure.
144
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:28,909
l know.
145
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,073
Look, even if this works,
even if all the Wraith stop feeding,
146
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,913
you think they're gonna become
nice and friendly overnight? No.
147
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,117
They're gonna have
a massive technological advantage.
148
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,191
You're suggesting they will enslave
the people of this galaxy
149
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:41,315
rather than feed on them.
150
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,789
We've seen the same thing happen
in our galaxy.
151
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,871
You didn't voice this objection before.
152
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,713
Nobody was asking you to risk your life.
153
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,597
My Wraith DNA makes me
the only possible candidate.
154
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,272
Anyone else would be detected
by the queen immediately.
155
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,352
Well, that's fine,
but my question is, why now?
156
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,910
The Wraiths are busy killing each other.
Why don't we just sit back and watch?
157
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,036
Eventually,
one faction will emerge victorious,
158
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,873
and then everything will go back
to the way it was.
159
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,554
But maybe not for a while,
so we can afford to wait.
160
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,790
And if Todd's alliance is destroyed?
161
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,872
We may never have another opportunity
like this again.
162
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,952
l admit, this may not solve
the Wraith problem once and for all,
163
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:21,871
but there are people alive today
164
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,428
who will be culled
in the coming weeks and months,
165
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:28,638
and if l can save even some of them,
l have to try.
166
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,469
lf not for myself, then for my son.
167
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,836
WOMAN ON RADlO:
Colonel Sheppard, come in.
168
00:10:35,560 --> 00:10:37,471
This is Sheppard, go ahead.
169
00:10:37,560 --> 00:10:40,757
Mr. Woolsey wanted me
to inform you, sir, he's here.
170
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,630
You sure you're ready for this?
171
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,631
As ready as l'll ever be.

00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:53,473
l'm sorry. l...
173
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,873
l feel like you're being pressured
into this because of my research.
174
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,315
l am not being pressured into anything,
175
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:04,349
and your research may save thousands,
even millions of lives. Remember that.
176
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:06,035
Right.
177
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:08,589
(lNHALES DEEPLY)
178
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:17,639
Can l help you?
179
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:19,873
Just remember,
180
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,949
if anything happens to her,
181
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,316
there won't be anywhere in the galaxy
you can hide.
182
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:31,479
ls that all?
183
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:36,588
Right.
184
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,352
How is my patient?
185
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,119
KELLER: She's fine.
186
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,599
Very well, let's get started.
187
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,310
KELLER: Don't worry,
he's just here as a technical advisor.
188
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,834
l'm gonna be performing the surgery.
189
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,637
All right, we're ready.
190
00:12:46,560 --> 00:12:49,154
-When are we gonna get to see her?
-Give it some time, just relax.
191
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,276
l can't. l had, like, three cups of coffee.
l'm completely wired.
192
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,271
Really? l hadn't noticed.
193
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,275
All right, you can see her now.
194
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:12,273
TEYLA: How do l look?
195
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,591
TODD: Now, assume your throne.
196
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,638
Are you trying to get us both killed?
197
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,072
-l do not understand.
-At the first sign of deception,
198
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,958
the Primary will not hesitate
to slit our throats!
199
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,156
You said she would sense my Wraith DNA.
200
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,879
lt is not your DNA that concerns me.
201
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,314
lt is your manner, your bearing.
202
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,357
You project apprehension!
203
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:55,509
Given the circumstances...
204
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,717
lt may be understandable,
but it is not acceptable!
205
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,353
Above all,
206
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,991
you must never show weakness.
207
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,476
Now, again!
208
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:13,756
(SlGHlNG) How long
is this gonna take, anyway?
209
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,877
Until Todd's satisfied
she can pass as a Wraith queen.
210
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,110
You know, personally,
l'm not inclined to rush this thing.
211
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,191
She's already too convincing,
if you ask me.
212
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:25,398
-Creeps me out.
-She's still Teyla, underneath all that.
213
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,311
Maybe that's the problem.
214
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,789
Look, l'm not any crazier about this
than you guys,
215
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,394
but the fact is,
Todd's putting his life on the line, too.
216
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:36,871
l don't think he'd go in there with her
if he didn't think she could pull this off.
217
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,876
-Where's Teyla?
-Resting.
218
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,198
You'll be pleased to know we've received
word back from the Primary's hive.
219
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,430
We've been instructed to meet them
at their current location.
220
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:49,238
So, what's the plan?
221
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,676
Once we arrive, we make contact
with the ship and make our way over.
222
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:54,796
Then Teyla will put forward my proposal.
223
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,440
-Oh, your proposal?
-Believe me, the less the Primary knows
224
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,080
about my dealings with
the humans of Atlantis, the better.
225
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,152
lf she doesn't know it's coming from us,
what are the chances she's gonna buy it?
226
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,471
Our alliance has recently been dealt
a number of setbacks.
227
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,835
You're getting your asses kicked.
228
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:10,155
lndeed.
229
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,717
Although the Primary would never
admit it out loud,
230
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:17,236
but the one thing stronger than her pride
231
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:23,277
is her instinct for survival.
232
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:38,918
Don't be nervous.
233
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:40,554
l am not.
234
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:53,949
So.. .
235
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,875
At long last, we meet.
236
00:15:58,120 --> 00:15:59,439
lndeed.
237
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:04,358
Many among my crew were beginning
to think you didn't exist.
238
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:11,910
You must point them out to me,
239
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,834
so that l may remove all doubt
from their minds.
240
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,880
That will no longer be necessary.
241
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,476
Make your way to my ship,
242
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,150
and do not keep me waiting again.
243
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,312
She likes you.
244
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:33,399
You think so?
245
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,677
lt was as warm a reception
as we could expect.
246
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,558
-SHEPPARD: How'd it go?
-Apparently, quite well.
247
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,791
They're preparing a shuttle
to take me over to the other hive.
248
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,348
You know, we can pull the plug anytime
you want, you just give us the word.
249
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:53,589
No.
250
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,716
We've come this far.
l intend to go through with this.
251
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,678
Well, we'll be right here.
Anything goes wrong, we'll get you out.
252
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,716
-But nothing's going to.
-No, of course not, but l'm just saying,
253
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:02,711
-if it does...
-Rodney!
254
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,279
Which it won't.
255
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,997
Hey, just be careful over there.
256
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,272
Welcome to my ship.
257
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,236
-Where is your queen?
-You will meet her in time.
258
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:48,478
lnform the bridge they're onboard.
Take us to hyperspace.
259
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,228
This was not part of the agreement.
260
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,358
You did not expect us
to conduct this meeting here,
261
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,749
within weapons range of your hive?
262
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:00,558
We are part of the same alliance.
263
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:03,871
Unless you do not trust us?
264
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:10,315
l make it a practice to trust no one
l do not know.
265
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,234
lt is how the queen wishes it.
266
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,560
Follow me. Please.
267
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:37,749
SHEPPARD: What's going on?
268
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,638

just went into hyperspace.
269
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:42,392
-What?
-That wasn't part of the deal.
270
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:43,674
No, it was not.
271
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,955
-Where'd they go?
-l do not know.
272
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,958
-There is no way to track them.
-He's lying.
273
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:51,759
Ronon?
274
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,039
l assure you, l know nothing of this.
275
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:57,234
Ronon.
276
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,950
lt appears we have no choice
but to trust each other.
277
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,994
The queen shall see you shortly.
278
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:22,479
What have you done?
279
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,120
l swear l did not expect this to happen.
280
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:26,553
We're in no danger.
281
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,676
lf the queen did not believe us,
we'd be dead already.
282
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:32,196
And if she begins to suspect?
We are trapped on this ship.
283
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:35,317
Everything will be fine,
provided you continue to play your part.
284
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,470
We must proceed as planned.
285
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,790
What is he doing here?
286
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,716
l thought his presence would be useful,
287
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,155

dealing with up until now.

who took your ship to hyperspace

00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,628
You should have informed me
of your intention
343
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,597
to make me queen of this hive.
344
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:54,829
Perhaps.
345
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,916
But l doubt you would have gone through
with it had you known.
346
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,390
You're right.
lt was a foolish, reckless plan.
347
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,438
Most Wraith seek to be ruled.
They fear being without a queen.
348
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,752
l knew that if you presented yourself
as a viable substitute,
349
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,594
-most of them would just fall in line.
-Most of them?
350
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:18,878
The point is, we have achieved
what we set out to do.
351
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,319
You are now effectively in control
of the alliance.
352
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,279
We may now implement Dr. Keller's plan
without hindrance.
353
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:30,115
Then there is no further need
for us to continue this charade.
354
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,511
Take me back to your ship.
355
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,195
Soon, but first, you must allow some time
356
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:40,319
for order to be restored,
for things to return to normal.
357
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,073
Once they do, you may take your leave,
358
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,718
and no one on this crew will be the wiser.
359
00:23:51,360 --> 00:23:52,998
l still say this was a setup.
360
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,992
l don't know, Kenny seemed pretty
surprised when that ship disappeared.
361
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,355
-Who?
-Kenny, the second-in-command.
362
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,193
-When did we start calling him that?
-Maybe he wasn't in on it.
363
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:02,872
l don't know.
lf Todd wanted to kidnap Teyla,
364
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,269
he would've done it the second we arrived.
lt doesn't add up.
365
00:24:05,360 --> 00:24:09,194
Seriously, the next time we have to name
one of these guys, we should take a vote.
366
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,111
-So what are we gonna do?
-McKAY: We can't stay here.
367
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:12,792
We're stuck on a hive
surrounded by Wraith.
368
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,279
Not exactly our strongest position.
369
00:24:14,360 --> 00:24:16,430
All l've got is a Jumper.
Where do you want to go?
370
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,511
We get to a gate, we gate back to Atlantis,
371
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:19,999
and then we figure out
where they took Teyla.
372
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:21,559
How, exactly?
373
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,189
Okay, so l haven't quite worked out
the details yet, but...
374
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,398
We have something.
375
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,160
The Primary's hive
has dropped out of hyperspace.
376
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,993
-How do you know?
-We're receiving a signal.
377
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,272
lt's Todd's subspace transmitter.
378
00:24:40,360 --> 00:24:42,635
They're in empty space,
on the edge of a large nebula.
379
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,995
-What are they doing out there?
-Who cares? This is our chance.
380
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,640
-Let's go after them.
-l've already plotted the course,
381
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,917
but you should know that it will arouse
suspicion for us to arrive unannounced.
382
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,116
Well, let's worry about that later.
383
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:57,193
For now, this is the closest thing
they've got to a distress signal.
384
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,076
l'm sorry to disturb you, my queen.
385
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,151
We've received an urgent report.
386
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,390
You intend to make her read it?
387
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,037
A hive belonging to another alliance
has been detected
388
00:25:18,120 --> 00:25:20,315
above one of our feeding grounds
not far from here.
389
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:24,075
-Have you tried to contact them?
-They are not responding.
390
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,355
Dispatch the closest hive to investigate.
391
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:30,035
We are the closest hive.
lt falls upon us to intercept.
392
00:25:30,120 --> 00:25:31,792
We must remain here.
393
00:25:36,120 --> 00:25:40,033
My queen, perhaps we should
discuss this in private.
394
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:43,629
(SlGHS )
395
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:46,714
Leave us.
396
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,872
We must respond to this.
To do otherwise will read as weakness.
397
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,676
-The crew will not understand.
-Then let them be confused.
398
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:10,671
Spoken like a true queen,
399
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,710
but you risk breeding suspicion.
400
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:18,316
For the moment, they believe you
and are prepared to serve you,
401
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,949
but if you break that trust
by making irrational decisions,
402
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,793
they will quickly fall away from you.
403
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:26,957
What about your ship?
404
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:28,996
lt is probably already on its way.
405
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,755
They will pick up on our new location
as soon as they arrive.
406
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,434
lnform the bridge to set a course.
407
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,634
Now, Kenny's right about one thing.
408
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,957
The second we drop out of hyperspace,
409
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:44,917
the Primary's hive ship is
going to know something's up.
410
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,639
We drop out early,
go the rest of the way by Jumper.
411
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,156
That's going to take too long.
We need a diversion.
412
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,835
-So, what kind of a diversion?
-You thinking what l'm thinking?
413
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,390
Yeah, but l don't think we can rely
on Kenny to give the order, though.
414
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:00,118
We don't give him a choice.
415
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,509
What are you talking about? What order?
416
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,034
No, wait a minute. You're not thinking
about attacking the other ship?
417
00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:07,236
Look, it's the only way
to keep them occupied long enough,
418
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:08,912
get on board, get Teyla and get back.
419
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,673
But it's also incredibly risky.
Either of the ships could be destroyed.
420
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:15,912
Well, we'll just make sure we get her
out of there before that happens.
421
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:20,275
Look, l realize the odds
aren't exactly in our favor, Rodney,
422
00:27:20,360 --> 00:27:23,636
but the longer we wait to get Teyla,
the more likely it is we never will.
423
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,518
We just have to keep
all of our options open.
424
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,954
TODD: We have reached
the feeding ground.
425
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,988
They will attempt
to negotiate a concession,
426
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,150
but you must stand firm.
427
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,754
They may even threaten to attack,
428
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,355
but they will not want to fight
any more than we do.
429
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:55,911
The other hive is trying to contact us.
430
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,036
lgnore them. Charge weapons.
431
00:27:59,120 --> 00:28:01,270
You wish to attack unprovoked?
432
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,515
We were provoked.
They have encroached upon our territory.
433
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,077
l want them destroyed. Now!
434
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:26,799
What are you doing?
435
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,440
-What does it look like?
-l told you to talk to them.
436
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,954
You also told me to show no weakness.
437
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:33,234
(EXPLODlNG)
438
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,197
They're returning fire.
439
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,919
-We're taking hull damage.
-Deploy the Darts.
440
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,274
Under these conditions,
they will suffer heavy losses.
441
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,148
l'm fully aware of the costs,
442
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,994
but we must take a firm stance
against intrusions such as this.
443
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:53,199
You're doing this on purpose,
to kill Wraith.
444
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,353
Half the first wave has been destroyed.
445
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,473
But the survivors are now too close
to be affected by the ship's weapons,
446
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,596
and they can attack at will.
447
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,354
Until the enemy
launches their own Darts to intercept.
448
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,112
That will take time.
449
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,598
With any luck,
we've caught them off guard.
450
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,198
-KENNY: They're not here.
-Where the hell are they?
451
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:40,554
They've moved,
452
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,756
to one of our more populated
feeding grounds.
453
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,196
-What for?
-l do not know. l'm not on the ship.
454
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:50,317
But if l had to guess,
l would say they've gone to cull.
455
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,437
-What now?
-What else can we do? We go after them.
456
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,160
lf they jump into hyperspace,
we're gonna lose them again, right?
457
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,390
Pretty much. Todd's locator beacon
doesn't work in hyperspace.
458
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,517
We gotta stop playing catch-up.
ls there a stargate on that planet?
459
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:02,669
Of course.
460
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:06,070
Then drop us off.
We can get there faster in the Jumper.
461
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:07,673
How do you intend
to get on board their ship?
462
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,991
Don't worry about it.
Just get us to the nearest stargate.
463
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,996
My queen, our Darts
are outnumbered two to one.
464
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,117
lf we do not recall them now,
they will be wiped out.
465
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,272
And their sacrifice will be remembered
when this alliance rules the galaxy.
466
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:36,588
(RUMBLlNG)
467
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,032
What was that?
468
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:42,394
We just lost the medial weapons array.
469
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:45,798
Keep firing all other batteries.
470
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,592
All right, so we should be
coming up on them now.
471
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,958
-Wait a minute, there's two of them.
-What?
472
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,759
And they're fighting.
They're not pulling any punches, either.
473
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,434
-You still picking up that signal?
-Yeah.

00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,596
All right, it's that one.
475
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:09,193
They're not doing so good.
476
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,555
-What do you mean?
-They must've lost some of their weapons.
477
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,870
-And they're seriously outgunned.
-We gotta do something.
478
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:15,837
You know, just last week
l was talking to Zelenka
479
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,229
about reverse-engineering a Daedalus
beaming system for the Jumpers.
480
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,278
-And?
-Well, no, we're nowhere near close.
481
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:22,952
The Asgard technology's
incredibly complicated...
482
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:24,598
What the hell
are you bringing this up for now?
483
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,911
l'm just saying this would be
the perfect situation for something...
484
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:29,877
All right, everybody hold on.
We're going in.
485
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:31,951
-What are you doing?
-Trying to tip the scales a little.
486

Are you nuts? They can see us!
487
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,233
-Think that did it?
-We're about to find out.
488
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:06,632
That's impossible.

Well done, my queen.
491

Perhaps next time, you will not be
so quick to question my tactics.
492
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,038

493
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,430
Darts are heading back.

-What do you mean you don't know?
-lt's hard to tell.
497
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,072
l think we're on the wrong level.
Plus, the signal keeps moving around.
498
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,116
That's a good sign, Todd's alive.
499
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,192
-Still doesn't tell us anything about Teyla.
-All right.
500
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,111

all over again?

-So, what are we gonna do?

-Which way?
507
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:39,356
l guess that answers that.

lnform the queen. We have intruders.

-Now what?
-Well, if l had to guess,
510
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,674
l'd say we'll be taken in front of the queen,
who will demand answers
511
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,194
and threaten to feed on us. At which time,
512
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:26,114
-l hope to have a plan to get us out of here.
-Very reassuring.

-lt's Teyla. She's alive.
-Rodney, quiet.
515
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:36,348
Leave us.
516
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:48,718
John, Ronon, Rodney,
it is good to see you,
517
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,313
but you should not have come for me.
518
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,517
-Why? What's going on?
-l'll explain later,
519
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:57,434
but you must not attempt to escape.
You're in no danger.
520
00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:59,511
l'm now queen of this hive.
521
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:01,439
Wait, what?
522
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:03,752
lt is a long story.
523
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:05,993
We got a Jumper here,
we can leave right now.
524
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,719
No, l must solidify my position first.
525
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,429
lt is the only chance we have to ensure
the alliance will accept the treatment.
526
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,432
Otherwise, this will all have been
for nothing.
527
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:20,074
All right.
528
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,755
We'll let it play out. For now.
529
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:44,479
My queen.
530
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,197
What are you doing here? Who authorized
you to wait in my quarters?
531
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,875
l let myself in.
l needed to see you in private.
532
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:54,832
l do not wish to speak right now.
Come back later.
533
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:56,717
l'm afraid l can't do that.
534
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,473
-l am your queen. l command you...
-You are not my queen.
535
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:01,915
How dare you speak to me like this?
536
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:03,558
Remove yourself of my sight immediately.
537
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,791
l saw you talking
with the prisoners from Atlantis.
538
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:10,475
And? l may not interrogate prisoners
on my own ship?
539
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:14,473
Oh, you may, though it is odd
that you refer to them as prisoners.
540
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,556
l overheard what you said to them.
541
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,871
You knew them, and they knew you,
542
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:22,632
and l asked myself,
543
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,795
''How is such a thing possible?''
544
00:36:26,720 --> 00:36:31,430
l suspected you right from the moment
you set foot upon my ship,
545
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:35,911
and against my better judgment,
l allowed you to remain onboard
546
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,512
while you committed
treachery after treachery.
547
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:43,355
lt was my duty to defend the ship,
and l failed.

Thank you.

l've arranged for Colonel Sheppard,

-to be transferred there immediately.
-Good. When do l join them?
557
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,356
As soon as this is all over.

And thus, l will be taking my leave of you,
and returning to my former hive.
559
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,832
l am leaving behind
my trusted commander.
560
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:49,038
Let me be clear,
you will still fall under my protection,
561
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:50,439
but in my absence,
562
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,318
you will heed his every order
as if it were my own.
563
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,119
When he speaks, it is as though
l am speaking through him.

-Yes, my queen.

Good. Then it is time.

Escort me to my transport.
567
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:08,718
The queen departs.
568
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,074
Well done.
569
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,435
l believe you've managed
to allay all suspicions.
570
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:24,431
Just remember why we did this,
571
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,751
to disseminate Dr. Keller's treatment
to as many Wraith as possible.
572
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:28,829
Of course.
573
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:32,230
Although l think it might be wise
to let matters settle for a time first.
574
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,311
How much time?
575
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:35,594
Not long.
576
00:38:36,240 --> 00:38:38,549
You're not planning on going back
on our agreement, are you?
577
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,837
No, no. l'm just saying that
to press such a radical agenda
578
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,559
so soon after the change in leadership,
579
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:48,918
well, it may invite unwelcome questions.

00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:52,393
-Fine.
-Very well.
581
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,597

that as far as this crew is concerned,
582
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:57,830
l am still their queen.
583
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,639
-Oh, yes.
-l will be watching you,
584
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,317
and should you step out of line,
l will not hesitate to make a reappearance
585
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:07,678

by Dr. Keller are not very satisfying.

l haven't had the chance to tell you
that what you did took,

from Todd?

Not really. We're supposed to meet
with him in a few weeks

that as a result of all of this,

Todd now personally has control
of that entire alliance?
