Original subtitles

This has happened.

He is bright-armed.

As I have understood it,

the virus appears like a meningitis.

The symbiote, Kanan, is someone I know well.

I have no doubt that he is willing to � meddle with O'Neill, cure him

and then leave him again if he finds another suitable host.

The symbiote's host died while they were on assignment.

The Tok'ra have good reason to � believe that the symbiote

has important information, and this may give him the opportunity.

Be so kind.

It's too far.

I can't do it.

Hide here until the chaapa'ai is activated.

Come on again.

The host lives, my lord.

INCOMING SIGNAL

ANALYZING SIGNAL

RECOGNIZED: TOK'RA

It's the tok'ra.

It was about time.

Take rest!

General Hammond.

Councilor Thoran, my patience in this matter is almost over.

You promised Colonel O'Neill safely back for days.

Where is he?

I'm afraid I have bad news.

He just strolled out from your base.

No one noticed he was gone before it was too late.

After the attack on Revanna,

our forces are drastically reduced.

We had no reason to expect this. No reason to blame anyone.

Colonel O'Neill put his life in your hands.

� receive a symbiote var only chance to survive.

He could have refused.

In that case, you would never have been able to extract

the knowledge in Kanan's brain.

A more than reasonable exchange.

Colonel O'Neill would never agree a mix with a symbiote

if there wasn't more at stake than his life.

Maybe it was the reluctance against � mixing with another mind

which got O'Neill to behave irrationally.

General, I cannot speculate of Colonel O'Neill's state of mind,

but even if a symbiote can take control over the host body

when it wants to, it doesn't work both ways.

I can confirm that.

It is impossible that O'Neill could have made his way on his own.

Then he was forced to, against its will, by the symbiote.

You accuse an honorable tokra to behave like a Goa'uld.

- Councilor... - Kanan has fought the Goa'uld

longer than any of you have lived,

but you pronounce the word symbiote as if you were talking about pests.

Whatever you think of us, Kanan was like a brother to me.

The Tok'ra council accepts that Kanan may be gone.

That's the big difference between us, council member.

We will not be left in the lurch.

Who are you?

You first.

Do you think you don't know me?

no harm meant, Skippy,

you must be a very important goa'uld.

I have always been a bit ignorant about those snake things.

I am Baal.

Is that all? Just balls?

As in bocce?

Don't you know what pain you will suffer for this tactlessness?

I don't know what that means.

"Tactlessness", what does it really mean?

I'm going to start over. Who are you?

Colonel Jack O'Neill, US Air Force. With two L's.

You might have been once, tok'ra.

I can be very strange, but I'm no tok'ra.

It's true that we just made it � capture the host.

your symbiote left your body out of cowardice.

But the Tok'ra share too� body and mind alike.

You want to know everything it knew.

I think I know less than you think.

Why did you come to this outpost?

A perfect example. I have no idea.

You've been here before.

First time.

You know the way to and from our most secret outpost.

- Of course you've been here. - What?

Did you think that you could escape my guards?

- What? - Why did you abduct my slave?

Here here.

This is the last thing I remember. I swear.

I was sick. I let the tok'ra put one snake in my head, otherwise I would die.

Right now I wish I had it.

That wish is easy to fulfill.

- What was your mission here? - No mission.

Why did you come back?

I have never been here.

- What did you want with the woman? - Which woman?

Death provides only a temporary escape.

I can revive you a thousand times if I have to.

Not until you've told me everything I ask,

will you be allowed to do that.

One last time.

Where was his last assignment?

As a special worker on a mother ship in Zipacna's fleet.

He escaped during the fight against Yu's forces, but only barely.

Did he have any motive for going back?

Like what?

Something unsettled. An unfinished task.

according to his report, the mission was accomplished.

We are willing to contact be people on these worlds

here, here and here.

His previous mission.

If Kanan returned to some of these worlds,

Maybe the people know something about it.

- When will we hear anything? - It can take many months.

- You mentioned Kanan's reports. - Yes?

We would like to see them.

Is Jonas' instinct correct?

and Kanan had something unsettled, there may be clues.

The content is irrelevant.

O'Neill's life is in danger. I think it is relevant.

What you are asking is impossible.

Yeah?

Is that you?

Hello, Jack.

Daniel?

I'm leaving and look at the chaos you're getting yourself into.

Good to see you.

Yes.

In the same way.

Too bad you're delusional.

No, I'm here. I'm really here.

Certainly.

Here in that sense that my consciousness is here,

if not here in the full physical sense,

which is neither here nor there.

This is not something you imagine.

I threw my shoe through you.

Yes. It is because I am exalted to another level of existence�.

Do you remember Oma Desala, the happy things. You helped me.

I could never manage alone. Do you remember that?

Yes.

- I am energy now. - How is it for you?

- Good, actually very... - Good.

Very good. But you...

You know how it is � return from the dead.

Takes a while to get color in the cheeks again.

Yes.

S...

- No delusion? - No.

Okay, show me what you can do. Get me out of here.

- I can't. - Why not?

- I am not allowed to interfere. - You do it now.

- No. - Yes, you do.

I don't do that. I comfort a friend.

What are you going to do with power? to control wind and lightning

if you can't get a friend out of jail?

- I would if I could. - Can't you do sin?

I can. I just... I can't.

Thanks for the visit, then.

Ba'al tortures you, and I didn't want to sit and watch.

He just wants to know why you came to this planet.

- You really don't know? - Do you?

All I know is that you or to be more precise,

the Tok'ra symbiote tucked inside you,

congratulations, by the way,

ran away undetected in the middle of the night and came here.

I can't believe I let them sit a snake in my head. My head.

I agreed to this.

It never mentioned why it wanted to go alone

into a fortified Goa'uld outpost?

There was no communication! I was sick.

I know that.

They implanted, a word I don't want to use again, and I woke up here.

That's my week, so far.

So you really know nothing?

Something to do with one of Baal's slaves.

I see her in my mind, but I've never met her before.

Nobody knows you're here.

Either way, they would never manage a rescue,

for this is a fortress.

Ba'al will continue to torture you to death

and revive you until he finds out what he wants,

something that is impossible because you know nothing,

or until you are worthless � revive longer.

But you will cease to be the Jack O'Neill we know long before that.

It seems so that I have a big day tomorrow.

No, I won't let that happen. He shall not be allowed to depose you.

You said you couldn't help.

I cannot prevent Baal's torture,

more than Oma could heal my radiation sickness,

but I can help you move on.

Your subordinates will not let me go.

My officers and conscripts my direct orders.

This Jaffa threatened my life.

I was just informing you about further research

p� � activate the stargate would cause physical harm.

Am I a prisoner?

I prefer that you see yourself as a guest.

You are free to leave as soon as you give us

the reports we have requested,

in accordance with clause nine of the agreement.

Such a request to the council must be done in person.

Why that? This control facility can convey a request

on a range of frequencies, also� those used by the Tok'ra.

If you don't want to use it of this opportunity,

We are happy to provide for comfortable accommodation

until you change your mind.

You are a threat to the good relationship

between our two peoples, General Hammond.

If the relationship develops as it is now, councillor,

so I give the hitch.

Right. I will ask for that the reports are sent here immediately.

Thanks.

So you want to be my Oma?

I wouldn't say it like that,

but maybe that's just me.

- And so�? - And so�? I don't know that.

You don't know that.

No, exaltation does not make one omniscient.

I really don't know.

If I'm going to come on a higher level of existence,

you must give me something.

It's your journey.

Only you can choose what you become or the path you take.

I can only promise that it will be a wonderful journey.

When you let go of your burden.

If you start talking like Oma...

- I don't speak like Desala. - Be heard soon.

No. Oma Desala would say something like:

"The light is fire,

"and the meal was prepared a long time ago," or something similar.

- Why that? - To open your mind.

Although there is light in my house, there is no one at home.

Let's take one step at a time.

This must be something you want. I can't do it for you.

- One step at a time. - One step at a time.

There must be another way away from here.

Jack...

How about you do some scouting for me,

- that would be ok, wouldn't it? - No.

I'm just asking you for a little scouting.

Ba'al just wants to torture you again…

Get me a zat gun.

Next time it will be worse.

We'll see to it the next time they come to pick me up.

- You can't win this. - So help me!

Not so.

They are coming.

They can see you. We can use it.

- I'll be back. - Just a diversion.

I promise.

Daniel?

The motif must be personal.

For what reason?

The Tok'ra insist that all of Kanan's spy missions were successful.

He didn't have to go back to some of the planets.

If we can believe them, we can rule out any logical reason.

No, Kanan had to be motivated of something that was important enough

to not only risk his own life, but also the host's life.

The Tal'vak acid will need some time p� � etch completely through.

Although the meat is cauterized,

often comes a small amount into the bloodstream and begins to spread.

- Why did you come back here, tok'ra? - I am a human being.

- Betrayed by your symbiote. - It took advantage of me.

- For what? - I don't know! And I hitch a ride!

- What did the symbiote call itself? - I don't remember.

Tok'ra may have the identity to both host and symbiote.

You are O'Neill. What was the name of the symbiote?

I have said it.

What tok'ra secrets Can one name reveal?

I don't know!

Why protect the one who betrayed you, left you to this?

If I knew the name, I would have said it!

I blow to protect the tok'ra!

They have been a nuisance for centuries.

Don't...

Even when we thought they were extinct,

they became even more insidious.

Like acid that eats holes in our empires.

Cannon!

That's the name.

Kanan.

- I just said that. - Yes, you did.

This neutralizes the acid and relieves the pain.

It pays to tell the truth.

I know nothing else.

There could be a lot more of this Kanan in your memory than you realize.

It will come to you.

With time.

Is that you?

- How about that? - You shouldn't have come back.

I don't remember it.

If I go with you, he wants to know.

Who are you talking to?

The woman.

There is no one there.

You say so.

Does it still hurt?

No.

I said I would come back.

If the Daniel Jackson I knew, really was here…

- I am. - Do something, then.

Look at me.

I don't want to go through that again.

If you were really my friend and could stop it, would you!

The hardest thing about being who or what I am,

is to have the power to change something, but know that I can't.

Even when I'm sure, when it is completely clear to me,

even when it concerns those I care about.

Because even with all I can do,

Am I not more suitable to play God than the Goa'uld are.

- Ba'al will continue with this. - Yes, he wants to.

So we don't have unlimited time.

- Are you going somewhere? - No.

There must be another reason that Kanan came back here.

Was it for the woman? The girl you just talked to?

She must have something to do with all this.

Forget it. It doesn't matter.

Carter and Teal'c come up with something.

Although they can find out where you are…

And Jonas is at least as smart as you.

There is not always a way out.

If it was true, I would have been dead a long time ago.

How many times can you go�

into that sarcophagus before it starts to change you?

How many times have you done that?

It can regenerate the body,

make you strong enough to make it again,

but all the time it reveals who you are.

And when that happens,

you will not be able to ascend any further.

Hello. I understand what you're trying to do.

I think you can do it.

- It's me we're talking about! - Yes, it is.

Try to have a nice mind.

Can you hold up?

Do you think the Asgard named a ship after you

because they thought it was a cool name?

Don't play stupid. You are much smarter than that.

They see the potential in you because of who you are and what you have done.

Human potential. It's the same as Oma saw in me.

I'm not you.

And when has it stopped you from doing something?

Imagine we switched places...

- You would stand up for me. - It must be certain!

I wanted to get you out blow this heel to shreds

and made sure the pig suffered!

The others would stop you.

Then they would have had quite a fight.

- You wouldn't... - Ba'al would have died...

- Jack... - I wouldn't give up there!

- You are a better man than that. - You are wrong there!

I can't imagine

to do or be something other than what I am.

I understand things in a way I couldn't before.

But I chose this.

Even when Jacob tried to heal me, I chose this.

But where you are now, you have no other choice.

It's not your life we're talking about, Jack!

It's your soul!

This is all. What I offer you is the only way out.

You are also wrong there.

I have another choice.

What are you talking about?

No.

They can come at any time. Ba'al will kill me again.

- You can do it for the last time. - Don't ask me to.

- You can put an end to it. - I don't do it.

I would do it for you, you know that.

I don't want to see this cell again, Daniel.

CHEYENNE MOUNTAIN FACILITY

I don't know about you,

but I have the feeling that there is absolutely nothing here.

Wait.

Look at this.

What is it?

The mission where Kanan scouted like a goa'uld

in the service of Baal, when was it?

Several months ago.

Ba'al has kept the outpost a secret for the other system masters.

The outpost was a test facility

for weapons technology and gravity generators.

Over the course of several months he could map

the entire facility, the defense works...

That's what Kanan reported to the tok'ra council.

But I just realized something.

He used Ba'al's lo'taur, his slave, to get hold of much of that information.

The Lo'taur gave him access to Baal's room when he was gone.

Do you think Kanan held back information in the report?

No. But think about it. A lo'taur is a Goa'uld's most trusted servant.

Why so carelessly betray his master?

The slave was a woman.

Access to Ba'al's own room?

Do you think Kanan had an affair with this slave

to gain access to her master's room?

There must have been something between them,

why else would she take the risk?

A tok'ra would stretch far to carry out an assignment.

Maybe he was just taking advantage of her.

But who knows? I mean, the tok'ra are very passionate.

They see casualties as a function of war.

I don't think the slave was enough of a motive for Kanan to � return.

Enough motive for Kanan.

The decision came after � having interfered with Colonel O'Neill.

And then he must have been confronted with every thought and perception

which makes the colonel who he is

and had to see for himself in light of the same �rescodex.

Not least what Hammond mentioned

like the difference between us and the Tok'ra.

We will not be left in the lurch.

Is that you?

You shouldn't be here.

You look so different. How can you be Kanan?

I'm not that.

If I go with you, he wants to know.

He took advantage of both of us.

He took advantage of both of us.

How long did you host Kanan before he made you come here?

- Days or just hours? - I don't remember.

What did Kanan tell about his previous mission here?

Nothing.

- What did he want with my slave? - I don't know.

- Why did he come back? - I don't know.

I believe you.

You are a victim of this tok'ra, just like me.

Kanan took over the host's body, your body,

just like me and any other Goa'uld would have done.

He took advantage of you to come here, but why?

I think the answers are in your head.

Even if you only hosted for a few hours,

he must have left something of himself behind.

An unfortunate legacy for you.

Because I will find it,

if I have to dig it out.

You say Kanan was forced

to save a slave he met several months before.

As a direct result of the mixture with Colonel O'Neill. Yes.

Based on the arrogant thought

that the colonel would never leave her in the lurch.

I know from my own experience

how deep feelings can be shared of a tok'ra symbiote and its host.

Me too, Major Carter.

But your theory just seems be based on intuition.

Fair enough, but not entirely without reasoning.

I know Colonel O'Neill is there.

I do the same.

- We agree. - It doesn't matter.

If Colonel O'Neill is in Ba'al's hands, we can't do anything.

We have drawings of the outpost.

Then you know it's a fortress. A whole army could not take it.

Kanan obviously thought it was possible.

If we go in with a small force, maybe two SG teams…

Sorry, but I agree with the councillor.

I have reviewed the reports we have about this outpost.

A successful attack is completely impossible for us.

Come in.

- General Hammond. - Teal'c. What is it?

I have meditated on the possibility to � save Colonel O'Neill.

I have looked at the drawings of the outpost itself.

I don't understand how it is possible to succeed

against such a well-protected fortress, no matter how great the strength.

Agreed.

I believe one of the Goa'uld's motherships can handle it.

Unfortunately, we have none of them.

Maybe not, but many system masters have it.

What was it called?

Kanan.

You remember the name. What mission did he have?

No mission.

- Was it to steal the slave from me? - I don't know.

Kanan believed that a slave could know my secrets?

There is something else you are hiding from me.

I sense it. I feel it.

When are you going to end this?

If you say what I want to hear, shall I end this.

Daniel?

Your psyche begins to fail. It's time for the sarcophagus.

But when you regain your strength, you must think about this:

It will be much worse next time.

Daniel.

Thoran threatens to � quit the diplomatic relations.

What did he say?

Among other things, that this is the reason why

that they have been reluctant to share information.

Right.

That's about what I said.

The Tok'ra need us more than we need them right now.

Are we expecting a response from Yu?

No. We know he received the drawings over Baal's outpost

and the accompanying message,

but it is impossible to know if he wants to do something.

I think he will.

Ba'al has kept the outpost a secret for the other system masters.

I don't understand that it has to be deleted

the power units first can help the colonel.

It will give O'Neill a chance, nothing more.

- Daniel? - I'm here.

You were gone.

I know, sorry. It was something I had to do,

but i'm back now and I'll stay until this is over.

- It never ends. - Yes, it does.

Daniel, you have to stop this.

Jack, you just have to hold on a little longer.

I can't go back in.

do i do it

I will give Baal what he wants. I say it.

What?

That he loved her.

Cannon?

He came to get her. He wanted to save her.

Ba'al does not know this.

If he finds out, will he treat her just like me.

Daniel, until you stop this,

I say so.

It is not needed. It's almost over, Jack.

- How then? - You were right.

There is always a way out. Anyway, there is always a chance.

Your journey is not over yet.

- What have you done? - I haven't done anything.

It was Sam and Teal'c and Jonas.

What?

They figured something out.

What?

Now it applies.

All you wanted was a chance, Jack. Now you have it.

If anyone can get out of here, is that you

Yu attacks!

Daniel?

- Come with me. - No, he wants to stop us.

Come on again.

Dr. Fraiser says he will probably have withdrawal symptoms

after so long in the sarcophagus, but otherwise he should be perfectly fine.

What happened to the woman he went to fetch?

Her name is Shallan. She stayed with the tok'ra.

So she can continue Kanan's fight in his name.

I'm trying to sleep here.

Excuse me. Glad you are doing well.

Here here,

that was a good idea you had.

Everyone contributed.

Do you need anything, or...

- Water. - Yes, of course.

I guess I always say goodbye to you.

Yes, I have noticed that.

Can't you stay a while?

I can't do that.

- You have done it. - Special occasion.

- Christmas? - No.

- Groundhog Day? - No.

I have my journey, you have yours?

Something sweet, yes.

I know you don't believe it right now.

I know you have your doubts, but…

You've been through something no one should go through.

What I'm trying to say is that it will work out.

- How do you know that? - You just have to trust me.

I can handle that.

- Are you okay? - Yes, then.

Be so good.

Thanks.

Good night.

Thanks.
