Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:13,840
We've been over this, Mr Ambassador.
2
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:15,840
Your submarine. Yes, yes.
3
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:20,560
The missile sub Rostov was less than
75km from the impact of the meteor.
4
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:22,720
You insist on maintaining this story?
5
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,440
The shock wave caused
severe damage and she sank.
6
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:30,720
ln the spirit of international cooperation, a
rescue vessel was sent from Pearl Harbor.
7
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:35,800
Unfortunately the Rostov's reactor went
critical before she arrived on the scene.
8
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:40,320
l have heard your government
repeat this story time and time again.
9
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,440
Yet, according to our intelligence,
on the day in question
10
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:49,760
the submarine in question was still taking
on supplies in the harbour at Vladivostok.
11
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,640
What can l say, Ambassador?
12
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,640
Your intelligence is wrong.
And not for the first time, l might add.
13
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,920
The Americans are hiding something,
and have been for years.
14
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,000
That Russia seems to have no objection
is all the more confusing.
15
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,640
- ln the spirit of cooperation...
- Please.
16
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:11,440
What you call a new spirit of cooperation
between your two countries, Colonel,
17
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:15,160
makes the People's Republic of China
uncomfortable.
18
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:19,200
- We couldn't help but overhear.
- Yes. l was trying to explain...
19
00:01:19,320 --> 00:01:23,680
My dear Colonel, if we can agree
on anything, it's that your lost submarine
20
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,200
is merely the latest in a long list
of extremely unlikely events
21
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,320
the Americans have attempted
to foist upon us as the truth.
22
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:35,760
- Yes. The Americans are up to something.
- They did summon us here for a reason.
23
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:42,080
To hear more stories of falling meteors
and exploding hot-air balloons.
24
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,080
Mr Ambassador, l am sure we can provide
you with the necessary evidence...
25
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,680
That won't be necessary, Colonel.
26
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,520
(speaks Russian)
27
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,480
(both speaking Russian)
28
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,360
General?
29
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,120
Gentlemen, please be seated.
30
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,880
Thank you.
31
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,840
Welcome to the Pentagon.
32
00:02:32,920 --> 00:02:36,400
Please forgive any security measures
you had to undergo to get here.
33
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:41,120
ln America we try never to underestimate
the competence or curiosity of our media.
34
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,640
We asked you here to inform you
of a secret operation
35
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:48,000
that the US Air Force is operating
out of Cheyenne Mountain in Colorado.
36
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,520
lt's called the Stargate programme.
37
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,880
Gentlemen, the Stargate.
38
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,840
The device itself
was discovered in Egypt in 1928,
39
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,360
where it lay buried
for several thousand years.
40
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:23,440
ln 1945 a team of scientists looking
for a military application for the device
41
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,000
established a stable wormhole
by a process of random dialling.
42
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:31,680
For all intents and purposes a lucky
accident, which they could not repeat.
43
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,280
The gate remained inactive
until eight years ago,
44
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,200
when this man, Dr Daniel Jackson,
joined the programme.
45
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,080
Dr Jackson deciphered
the symbols on the gate,
46
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,960
allowing us to begin
exploration of alien worlds.
47
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:49,720
Since that time, Mr Ambassadors, we
have visited literally hundreds of planets.
48
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,200
Thousands more remain to be explored.
49
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,840
What?
50
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,640
This is absurd.
51
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,840
l know it's a lot to process, gentlemen.
52
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:05,520
The first time l saw the gate activated,
l could hardly believe my eyes.
53
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,560
- lt is true.
- You know about this?
54
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,480
The Russian government has been
aware of the Stargate for some time.
55
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,560
Are you quite serious?
56
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:20,400
Did your president not recently call
Great Britain ''America's closest ally''?
57
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,720
One of our people illegally
sold the Russians information
58
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,360
which allowed them to temporarily
operate their own programme.
59
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:31,360
- You had one of these Stargates?
- For a short time.
60
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,160
How many of these
bloody things are there?
61
00:05:34,280 --> 00:05:40,080
Another Stargate was recovered from
the bottom of the ocean two years ago.
62
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,800
l don't understand.
63
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,600
SG-1 was trapped
aboard an Asgard vessel.
64
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,720
They beamed aboard our Stargate
as their means of escape.
65
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:25,040
So the gate the Russians recovered from
the Pacific was the gate found in Egypt.
66
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,480
We replaced it with a gate we
discovered in Antarctica five years ago.
67
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,960
That Stargate has since been destroyed.
68
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:36,720
The original gate is back in Colorado,
leased from the Russian government.
69
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,760
The explosion of your nuclear submarine
was a cover story for these events?
70
00:06:43,840 --> 00:06:49,760
Actually the Rostov explosion covered up
the explosion of a crashed Goa'uld ship.
71
00:06:49,840 --> 00:06:54,160
Whereas the Stargate
was aboard an Asgard... ship.
72
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,560
The Asgard...
73
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,160
Obviously this is very confusing
at first glance.
74
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,120
Oh, no, no, no. What could be more clear?
75
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,760
There were two different sorts
of alien ships. l follow completely.
76
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:11,680
This is much more believable than the
accidental loss of a Russian submarine.
77
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:17,760
Although l am dubious that not one but
two reported meteors in the last few years
78
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,320
were in fact alien ships.
79
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,960
Actually, there were three.
80
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:30,960
Gentlemen. Sorry l'm late. l had a meeting
on the hill that couldn't be postponed.
81
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:32,560
Senator.
82
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,280
General. What have l missed?
83
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:40,960
Your officers have been telling us
several tall tales, as you might say.
84
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,440
(chuckles)
85
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:49,200
So you've been at this God knows how
long and they don't even believe you?
86
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,360
lf that doesn't take the cake...
87
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:57,200
l don't know what they've told you,
but it's true. The Stargate exists.
88
00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,880
And they go through
the damn thing on a daily basis.
89
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,240
Does everyone in your government
know about this?
90
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:08,720
As chair of the Appropriations Committee,
Senator Kinsey was given a full briefing.
91
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,600
l demanded to know
where all the money was going.
92
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,920
And believe you me,
we're talking about a lot of money.
93
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:22,400
l'm sure what you find hard to believe
is why we would come forward with this.
94
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,280
The Chinese government
has threatened to go public
95
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,880
with information that contradicts
one of our cover stories.
96
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,920
But that isn't the only reason.
97
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:34,400
The fact is,
98
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:40,640
due in no small part to the actions of
the Stargate programme's flagship team,
99
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,120
SG-1 ,
100
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,920
our planet is facing imminent danger.
101
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:57,080
So, assuming this is not
some sort of elaborate hoax,
102
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:01,200
and there are no television cameras
ready to pop out at any moment,
103
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:05,480
these aliens who threaten
to destroy Earth even as we speak...
104
00:09:05,560 --> 00:09:07,840
- The Goa'uld.
- Mm-hm.
105
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,560
- They built the Stargate?
- No, sir.
106
00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:14,000
The gate system was built by
an older race, long since disappeared.
107
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,000
The Goa'uld regularly use the gates,
108
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:21,360
but they subjugate humans with powerful
ships capable of interstellar travel.
109
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,160
Such as the one
that crashed in the Pacific Ocean.
110
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:29,360
And the Goa'uld have dozens,
if not hundreds, of these vessels.
111
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,520
This is a single Ha'tak-class vessel.
112
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,840
Each Goa'uld system lord
operates entire fleets of these.
113
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,640
(Davis) Typically a Goa'uld flagship
is several times this size.
114
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,120
They also have bombers called Al-Kesh
115
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,840
and small fighters
known as Death Gliders.
116
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,000
Pull up, Teal'c. Teal'c, pull up
117
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,800
The Goa'uld are
more advanced than us in every way.
118
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,400
There can be no doubt that
they have hostile intentions.
119
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:27,920
- Can we negotiate with them?
- The Goa'uld are a predatory species, sir.
120
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:32,360
They will enslave a planet or, in the face
of resistance, wipe out its inhabitants.
121
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:37,200
They don't negotiate. We have witnessed
Goa'uld attacks on several worlds.
122
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,160
They begin with a long-range assault
launched from orbit,
123
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:44,400
designed to take out planetary defences
and instil fear in the population.
124
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,720
(echoing voice) l am Svarog.
125
00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:01,680
From this day forth, you will serve me.
126
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:08,000
After their orbital assault, they'll move in
to strike any remaining ground positions.
127
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,160
After that, they'll put
their troops on the ground.
128
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,800
Each mothership carries hundreds
if not thousands of warriors.
129
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,200
They appear to be amassing a few troops.
130
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:51,200
lt was high time you were all briefed
on what we're up against.
131
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,160
lf what you are saying is true,
132
00:11:54,280 --> 00:12:00,600
then the US has unilaterally taken actions
which have placed the world in jeopardy.
133
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:04,240
Mr Ambassador, l know how you feel.
When this was brought to my attention,
134
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:09,520
l insisted that the gate was
too dangerous to remain in operation.
135
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,880
Unfortunately l was overruled.
136
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,600
With due respect, the president
took your recommendation.
137
00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:21,680
And it nearly resulted in disaster.
lt was only because of the efforts of SG-1 ,
138
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,840
who violated your order to shut down
the gate, that we managed to survive.
139
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:30,000
Oh, and they've done a great job since,
under your tenure, haven't they, General?
140
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:34,000
You managed to defeat
the Goa'uld known as Apophis,
141
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:38,560
only to see him replaced
by another more dangerous one.
142
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,840
lsn't that a fair assessment?
143
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,000
(deep Goa'uld voice)
You are the one they call Thor.
144
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,480
l am Anubis.
145
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:07,920
As l have told your lieutenant,
l will reveal nothing to you.
146
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:12,800
This device will be
implanted into your brain.
147
00:13:14,560 --> 00:13:19,560
lt will form a link between
your mind and the ship's computer.
148
00:13:19,680 --> 00:13:24,520
Your knowledge will simply be
downloaded into our memory banks.
149
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,440
You will no doubt resist.
150
00:13:27,560 --> 00:13:29,920
And you will no doubt fail.
151
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,800
The Goa'uld possess no such technology.
152
00:13:42,560 --> 00:13:47,280
l think you'll find many things
have changed since my return.
153
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:52,640
Admittedly, Anubis has technology
that is far superior to any other Goa'uld.
154
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:57,440
But we could not have foreseen his return
to power among the other system lords.
155
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:03,520
The point is, he's already tried
to destroy the Earth on two occasions.
156
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,880
l'm sure you were getting to that.
157
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:17,200
Yes, sir. A year ago, we discovered an
asteroid on a collision course with Earth.
158
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,560
When you say ''asteroid''
l assume you mean ''spaceship''.
159
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:26,000
No, sir. Not this time.
We were fortunate to detect it at all.
160
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:30,640
There'd have been no need for a cover
story. lt would have wiped out all life.
161
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:39,120
The asteroid had been deliberately set on
a collision course with Earth by Anubis.
162
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:43,800
Fortunately we managed
to divert it in time.
163
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,240
Carter, l can see my house.
164
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,200
Engaging hyperdrive... now.
165
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:13,840
l should point out once again,
gentlemen, that it was SG-1 who saved us.
166
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,920
Are we expecting another attack?
167
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,120
Anubis is consolidating his
position amongst the system lords,
168
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,680
but in time he will
turn his attention back to Earth.
169
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:27,360
The nations represented here make up
the bulk of this planet's military capacity.
170
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:34,080
Our chances for successful resistance
would be improved if we work together.
171
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:38,160
This would require an unprecedented
level of military cooperation,
172
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:43,160
as well as a commitment from all of you
to maintain absolute secrecy.
173
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,560
l'm afraid that may be impossible.
174
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:51,280
lf we are facing invasion then we must
warn our people so they can prepare.
175
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:56,280
Ambassador, we feel that coming forward
now would result in widespread panic.
176
00:15:56,400 --> 00:16:01,120
As opposed to the panic that will result
when aliens march through our streets?
177
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:06,640
The government of China does not believe
in keeping secrets from its people.
178
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:11,200
We may have no choice
but to release this information.
179
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,160
We're talking about
a full-scale attack from space.
180
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,720
l'm afraid people are going to notice.
181
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:32,800
We're hoping it won't come to that.
182
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:37,600
As you now know, Stargate Command has
dealt with several threats to this planet
183
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,160
without divulging
information to the public.
184
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,280
You've been lucky and you know it.
185
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:47,280
We also have damn good people.
We've given as good as we've got.
186
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,520
On one occasion we managed
to wipe out an entire fleet of motherships.
187
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:55,280
- This SG-1 , l assume?
- That's right.
188
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,640
Engaging force field.
189
00:17:04,360 --> 00:17:05,800
(exhales)
190
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,160
- Something wrong?
- No.
191
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,320
l've just never blown up a star before.
192
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:20,320
Well, they say
the first one's always the hardest.
193
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,400
They say that.
194
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,400
Opening cargo bay doors.
195
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:33,600
Releasing the clamps.
196
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,360
And the gate is away.
197
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,520
A significant achievement,
198
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,560
but the circumstances
would be difficult to duplicate.
199
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:22,240
For all their advanced technology,
the Goa'uld have a fatal flaw. Arrogance.
200
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:26,080
We've taken advantage of the fact
that they don't perceive us to be a threat.
201
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,040
Clearly that's no longer the case.
202
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,240
The point is, they're not invincible.
203
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:36,680
Our technology may be inferior,
but it is effective.
204
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,800
- Target Sierra One has been acquired.
- Missile away.
205
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,680
Sierra One has been destroyed.
206
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:12,920
Very impressive. But nothing on Earth
could go up against these motherships.
207
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,440
Mr Ambassador, our primary mission
208
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:19,120
has been to obtain technology
capable of defending this planet.
209
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,520
And we've made significant progress.
210
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:26,440
We've made progress.
The jury's still out on ''significant''.
211
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,320
Since the Stargate has been in operation
212
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,200
we've acquired knowledge
of alien technologies.
213
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,840
We've tried to adapt them to our uses.
214
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:40,920
Towards that end, two years ago we
developed a fighter-interceptor, the X-301 .
215
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:47,360
lt combined human technology and
parts from two salvaged Death Gliders.
216
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,400
The prototype failed
to live up to expectation.
217
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,200
Beginning attack run now.
218
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,360
(whooping)
219
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,640
- l am no longer in control, O'Neill.
- Excuse me?
220
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:12,920
The craft is not accepting input from
the controls. The drive is at full power.
221
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,480
- This is an emergency.
- The ejection system has malfunctioned.
222
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:23,440
We are no longer in control. l repeat,
we have lost control and cannot eject.
223
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,560
After the failure of the X-301
224
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:33,120
we concentrated on creating an entirely
man-made craft with similar abilities.
225
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,800
The result was the X-302.
226
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,680
- Navigation?
- Check.
227
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:53,320
- Oxygen, pressure, temperature control?
- All check.
228
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,240
lnertial dampeners?
229
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,120
Cool... and check.
230
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,360
- Engines?
- All check.
231
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,240
- Phasers?
- Sorry, sir.
232
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:13,520
Systems operational. Mission Command,
all systems go from Abydos One.
233
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,600
Do you mean to tell me
that the United States Air Force
234
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:35,440
is flying a fighter-interceptor capable
of both aerial combat and space flight?
235
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,240
That's correct.
236
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,760
This... is unacceptable
237
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,040
Mr Ambassador,
l understand how you feel...
238
00:21:43,120 --> 00:21:47,120
With all due respect, General,
l don't think you do.
239
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,160
Your government has operated
this Stargate for six years,
240
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,680
supposedly for the benefit of all mankind.
241
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,200
Yet now we find out you've been
taking advantage of the situation
242
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:02,320
to create military hardware that radically
alters the balance of power on this planet.
243
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,200
The X-302 was designed
to defend against the Goa'uld.
244
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,640
We have no intention
of using it against our neighbours.
245
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,880
And for that we have only your word.
246
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,480
The United States has had
such capabilities for some time,
247
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,560
but have not used them on other nations.
248
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:21,520
Are there any other new technologies
that we need to know about?
249
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:27,440
Might as well tell them, General.
They're gonna find out sooner or later.
250
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:35,520
Since we encountered a mothership we
have been working on a countermeasure.
251
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:12,000
Prometheus was designed to carry
a complement of eight X-302 fighters,
252
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,080
and is one of several planned.
253
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,200
l must contact my government
immediately.
254
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:22,800
Mr Ambassador, we volunteered this
information in a spirit of cooperation.
255
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:26,800
We're trying to create a coalition
to defend the entire world.
256
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,080
- Under your leadership.
- We have the experience.
257
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:34,320
l'm sorry, General, but it may be
impossible to achieve an agreement
258
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,840
as long as the Stargate
and any resultant technologies
259
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:42,400
remain solely under the control
of the United States military.
260
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,640
- What do you suggest?
- Move the gate to a neutral location
261
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,560
and create a permanent staff
drawn from all five nations.
262
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:55,600
- l'm afraid we can't agree to that.
- The choice may finally not be up to you.
263
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,400
Once the rest of the world learns
of the Stargate, they may well demand it.
264
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,520
We support the United States.
265
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,480
And what are you getting
in exchange for this support?
266
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:09,120
Gentlemen, please. Perhaps
l can offer a compromise. Please?
267
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:23,120
l sympathise
with the ambassador's position.
268
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:29,840
A device as powerful as the Stargate
in the hands of a military organisation...
269
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:35,600
lt's a recipe for abuse,
despite everyone's best intentions.
270
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:44,480
- What are you suggesting?
- We have a civilian agency called the NlD.
271
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:50,880
lts mandate has been to keep an eye
on top-secret projects like the Stargate,
272
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,760
and has done so from the beginning.
273
00:24:53,840 --> 00:25:00,320
l propose that we give this organisation
direct control of the gate,
274
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,680
effective immediately.
275
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,800
You can't be serious.
276
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:10,240
l'm completely serious. The NlD is the
only organisation besides the air force
277
00:25:10,360 --> 00:25:15,280
that has the knowledge, experience
and skill to run the Stargate.
278
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,080
- They tried to kill you, Senator.
- Now, now, Major.
279
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,000
Those were rogue agents
working for outside interests.
280
00:25:22,120 --> 00:25:26,640
Under the NlD, l'm sure we can determine
a suitable level of participation
281
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,960
for all the great nations
represented here at this table.
282
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,200
Senator, could we speak in private?
283
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:38,800
l find your reluctance to relinquish
military control of the gate disturbing.
284
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:43,440
You'd do a lot better to trust the US
Air Force than the NlD, Mr Ambassador.
285
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:48,080
The General has an understandable
personal prejudice against the NlD.
286
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,600
Personal prejudice? Senator,
their record speaks for itself.
287
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,360
l've never met anyone who liked
doing what they do more than you.
288
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,800
You were good at it. Great.
289
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:03,800
You'll never convince me
you just got fed up. l'll never buy that.
290
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,000
You don't understand.
291
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:09,280
And l won't unless you explain it to me.
292
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:15,680
Two weeks ago l was contacted
by a representative of the NlD.
293
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:19,600
He suggested l should become
more aggressive in my policies.
294
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,280
They've no jurisdiction.
295
00:26:21,360 --> 00:26:24,480
They wanted me to help them
access off-world technology,
296
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,160
which they're unable to do since we shut
down their side operation.
297
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,880
- You told him to go to hell.
- Of course.
298
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:35,680
Then he told me that if l didn't cooperate
there would be consequences.
299
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:41,520
The next day two men in plain clothes,
driving a black unmarked car,
300
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,640
picked up my granddaughters at school.
301
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,200
- l don't believe it.
- They took them for a ride,
302
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:51,680
then brought them home.
The girls were fine, but l got the message.
303
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,400
We're talking about
a borderline-criminal organisation
304
00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:01,040
whose true mandate has always been
to acquire alien technology at any cost.
305
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:06,560
lf the threat posed by this Anubis
is as serious as you say,
306
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:10,000
acquiring alien technology
should be our first priority.
307
00:27:10,120 --> 00:27:13,840
Tell that to the Madronans. The NlD
stole a weather device from their planet,
308
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,000
destabilising their atmosphere.
309
00:27:16,120 --> 00:27:19,920
They'd have died if SG-1 hadn't found
the culprits and retrieved the device.
310
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,080
- Stand to, gentlemen
- (guns click)
311
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,960
Keep those hands visible.
312
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,760
- Who the hell are you?
- No one's damn business.
313
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,480
Step away from the crate.
314
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,280
(chevrons locking)
315
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,240
Stop
316
00:28:26,360 --> 00:28:28,160
Don't do it
317
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:35,200
Ah
318
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:37,760
What?
319
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,560
l missed the address.
320
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,920
At least we have this.
321
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:59,040
After we shut down their operation they
continued to steal from an off-world base.
322
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,640
But they stole from the wrong aliens.
323
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,640
What are they doing?
324
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,920
Taking back
what's rightfully theirs, l guess.
325
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,520
Listen up, all of you.
You've got two choices here.
326
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,960
As soon as they stop taking stuff,
they'll start taking people.
327
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,600
Now, you can go with the Asgard,
328
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,560
or you can follow me. lt's your choice.
329
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:29,680
l'll be holding the door open
so you can't go anywhere else.
330
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:55,560
Granted, the NlD employed some
questionable methods in the past.
331
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,120
But we're all agreed
the status quo won't do.
332
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,680
And l would hesitate to point fingers,
General Hammond.
333
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:09,200
That you and Jack O'Neill are still
in charge of the Stargate programme...
334
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:13,760
- lf you're questioning our record...
- l'm questioning your competence.
335
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:19,760
But, if you want to look at your records
in the company of these fine gentlemen...
336
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,440
that's just fine.
337
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:27,440
These reports detail incidents in which
the operation of the Stargate programme
338
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:33,280
has brought this planet to the brink
of destruction. For example...
339
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:40,400
four years ago, despite indications of
extreme danger, you opened a wormhole
340
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:44,560
to a planet that was in the process
of being destroyed by a black hole.
341
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,240
That was unforeseeable.
342
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:49,920
Gravitational and time distortions
were translated through the gate,
343
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,880
which you had been unable to disengage.
344
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:57,760
And the Earth came within
a hair's breadth of being torn apart.
345
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:03,840
We did shut down the gate by directing an
explosive device through the wormhole.
346
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:08,400
And l believe it was Jack O'Neill
who risked his life to pull it off.
347
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,200
Teal'c, pull him up
348
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,760
(Kinsey) What else
do we have here? Ah, yes.
349
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,000
lsn't it true that
while under your command
350
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:58,800
the Stargate facility has been
completely overrun by alien life forms?
351
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,000
Get out of there
352
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:41,680
We've set the self-destruct. You have less
than five minutes to tell us to override.
353
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:43,920
Roger that
354
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:01,520
Now.
355
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,840
Close that iris.
356
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,240
lt's overridden.
l'm shutting down the gate.
357
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,880
The situation was successfully contained.
358
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:34,160
The situation should never have arisen.
359
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,120
Not if you had been doing your job.
360
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:44,320
And these incidents
are just the tip of the iceberg.
361
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,080
Face it, General. Under your command,
362
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:52,320
the Stargate programme
has lurched from one crisis to the next,
363
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:57,560
never averting disaster by
anything more than the skin of its teeth.
364
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:02,880
We can't afford
to let you roll the dice any longer.
365
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,480
Would you excuse us, please?
366
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:21,360
Made a few calls. Kinsey's moving from
Appropriations to lntelligence Oversight.
367
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,120
Which would give him
direct power over the NlD.
368
00:34:24,240 --> 00:34:29,040
He's manipulated this whole situation
to gain control of the Stargate.
369
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,040
l may have my own ace up my sleeve.
370
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,920
l understand your feelings,
Mr Ambassador, believe me.
371
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:42,560
We're junior partners in the Stargate,
following the lead of the Americans.
372
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:46,720
The Chinese government will not accept
a secondary position so graciously.
373
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:52,360
There are advantages. The programme
costs them seven billion dollars a year.
374
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,760
- They reap the benefits.
- The X-303?
375
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:59,920
Research and development of the
hyperdrive alone has cost two billion.
376
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,080
And it still doesn't function properly.
377
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:08,120
They will spend more money and risk the
lives of their people perfecting the design.
378
00:35:08,240 --> 00:35:13,640
Then we'll get the blueprints and build
our own ship in less time for half the cost.
379
00:35:13,720 --> 00:35:20,320
Once again, l apologise, gentlemen. lt
seems a politician's work is never done.
380
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:25,040
You could have the same deal.
(speaks Russian)
381
00:35:35,240 --> 00:35:38,240
Now, where were we?
382
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,800
Gentlemen, l realise we're in
no position to make demands here.
383
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,200
We're trying to reach a consensus.
384
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,480
But before you go to your leaders
and make recommendations,
385
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,720
l want you to consider something.
386
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:56,480
Whoever runs the Stargate will represent
this planet throughout the galaxy.
387
00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:02,880
They will be ambassadors, meeting other
races, establishing ties with other worlds.
388
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:08,720
lt is true that in the six years we've
run the Stargate we've made enemies.
389
00:36:09,720 --> 00:36:12,640
But we've also made friends.
390
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:16,520
l believe we've
acquitted ourselves with honour.
391
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:20,000
On that score, l stand by the record.
392
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,480
(whispering)
393
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,560
This is the Asgard planet Othala
in the galaxy of lda.
394
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:42,960
Why did l come here?
395
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:48,240
The ancients moved on
from our region of space long ago.
396
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,600
But your subconscious mind
used their knowledge to find us here,
397
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,920
where you could get help.
398
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:58,640
- Very impressive.
- Well, you know...
399
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:02,800
We did not think your brains
had advanced even that far.
400
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:08,080
How is it you know
so much about our brains?
401
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,640
We have studied your race closely.
402
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:14,400
Ah.
403
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:24,120
- What did you learn?
- That your species has great potential.
404
00:37:25,720 --> 00:37:27,680
Great potential.
405
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,120
That's good.
406
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,800
(all Asgard whispering)
407
00:37:49,720 --> 00:37:52,000
You make an interesting case, General.
408
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:55,280
However, l'm afraid l must
take this matter to my government
409
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,640
and recommend
full disclosure to our people.
410
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:04,880
l must do the same, though l will admit
Senator Kinsey's proposal is interesting.
411
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,120
Thank you, Mr Ambassador.
412
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:25,520
Hello...?
413
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:31,200
Hello. l am Thor,
Supreme Commander of the Asgard fleet.
414
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:35,120
- Thank you for coming, Thor.
- lt is my pleasure, General Hammond.
415
00:38:35,240 --> 00:38:38,000
The Asgard are in your debt.
416
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:39,200
''Your debt''?
417
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:42,480
SG-1 , under the command
of General Hammond,
418
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:46,480
has saved my people and yours
on many occasions.
419
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:51,040
We are not only allies against the Goa'uld,
we are true friends.
420
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,560
Commander Thor, my name is...
421
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:56,960
Senator Kinsey.
422
00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:01,880
O'Neill suggested l send you
to a distant planet for your actions here.
423
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,040
But l am reasonably certain
his statement was in jest.
424
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:09,880
- l'm sure it was, Commander...
- Supreme Commander.
425
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,840
lt is the opinion of the Asgard High
Council that Stargate Command
426
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:19,360
should be left in the very capable hands
of General Hammond and his team.
427
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:23,360
And while our continued friendship
with Earth is not contingent on that,
428
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,920
it is preferred.
429
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:33,360
You came all this way just to tell us that?
430
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:39,200
And to install Asgard-designed
shields and weapons on Prometheus.
431
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:42,480
A small token of thanks
for SG-1's recent efforts
432
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:47,360
in securing our galaxy and yours
from certain destruction.
433
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:48,240
l see.
434
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:51,360
l hope l have been successful
in convincing you.
435
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:55,680
- Good day, General Hammond.
- Always a pleasure, Thor.
436
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,400
Please drop in any time.
437
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:03,200
Well...
438
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:08,240
that settles it, then.
You have our support, General.
439
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:12,120
- Thank you, Ambassador.
- Ours as well.
440
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,120
And the continued support of Russia.
441
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,360
lt's much appreciated, sir.
442
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,600
While l still have my reservations,
443
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:28,480
l believe my government will agree
that, for the time being,
444
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:31,520
the Stargate is in the right hands.
445
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,360
Senator?
446
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:40,000
l'll say this, General.
447
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:43,920
Well played.
