The nikkei dropped 8%
last night,

and the yen
continued its free fall.

Also, the president of Togo
was deposed about six hours ago.

He managed to get a plane
to Nigeria.

Now he's calling for American
troops to help restore order.

This is my first day.

Yes, Mr. President.

The New York times is about
to launch an investigation

into voting irregularities
in six southern states.

I've got Teddy
on it.

Stan, who are these
people following me?

They work for you,
Mr. President.

Also, there's a storm
in the Atlantic

about to hit
the coast of Maine.

They're expecting
Gale force winds

and 20 inches
of snow.

Shouldn't know
who they are?

Yes, Mr. President.

Emergency management
teams are standing by,

but we've scheduled a
call to the governor for 1000

so you can pledge
your support.

They're not going to follow
me around all the time, are they?

No, Mr. President.

Good.

Hello.

Holly.

The chairman
of the joint chiefs

is waiting for you
in your office.

He knows
it's my first day, right?

Yes, Mr. President.

Good.

Francis.

Mr. President.

We need to talk, sir.

It's important.

Guys...

Let me enjoy
the moment.

Moment's over, sir.

Right.

Stan, thank you.

Thank you.

Mr. President,

I'm here to bring you
up to speed

on a program
we've been running

out of Cheyenne
mountain

for the past
seven years.

I've already had my
top-secret briefing.

Yes, Mr. President,
but not this.

Mr. President, for
the past seven years,

the United States
air force

has been sending teams
to other planets

by means of an alien device
known as the "Stargate."

That's funny.

That's very funny.

My first day.

This is a joke, right?

I have a great
sense of humor.

I didn't know that you
had one, but this is good,

because we're finding out
about each other.

Now I have to call
the ex-president of Togo,

and when I'm done,
apparently,

the rest of the world
is coming to an end.

The ex-president
of Togo

will have
to wait, sir.

This is not a joke.

The United States air force

has been sending people
to other planets...

Yes, sir.

Forthe last seven
years... That's correct.

By means of
an alien device?

Known as the "Stargate."

Senator mcknight
is requesting

we move your meeting
to next week.

He's trying to duck me.

He doesn't want to commit
on the crime bill.

What should I tell
them? Forget it.

The son of a bitch
came in on our coattails.

Now it's time
to pay the Piper.

What the hell
were you thinking?

Mr. President.

Why didn't you tell me?

Sara, would...

Would you excuse us
for a moment, please?

I take it
you've just been briefed

by the chairman
of the joint chiefs

on our new reality.

Not only do I find out

that the air force is engaged
in interstellar travel,

but I also find out that my
running mate knows all about it.

I was under a special
executive gag order.

Since when?

A little over
sixyears now.

That's unbelievable!

Mr. President,
I realize

this is a little
overwhelming right now,

but what you
really need to know

is that the Stargate is
being seriously mismanaged.

It's urgent
that we act now.

What are you
talking about?

I am desperately
trying

to maintain some proper
control and accountability,

but the oversight in place
is completely inadequate,

the military
specifically.

The personnel directly
involved in the SGC

need to be
replaced immediately.

Now...

I have several
recommendations regarding...

Whoa, Bob,
hold on here.

Mr. President,

why do you think I was
ordered to keep quiet?

This was
a deliberate attempt

by the military and the
previous administration

to drive a wedge
between us,

because they knew I was
going to come after them.

We need to stick
together on this.

For god's sake, Bob, think
of the magnitude of this!

"For god's sake"...
Is right.

Oh, come on, Bob.

If you want me
to buy into

your "holier than thou"
position,

you've got to convince me
you're right.

"Hosted alien dignitaries."

"Acquired alien technology."

"Traveled back in time"?

Did they really
blow up a sun?

As I understand it, sir,
yes, they did.

It's got to look awfully good
on the old resume, hey?

Yes, sir.

They've done
some pretty amazing things.

You sound
like a fan, Francis.

Well, I can't help
but appreciate

the number of times
they've saved this world.

Some people think this world
wouldn't have needed saving

had we left
well enough alone.

Well, you can't deny
what's out there, sir.

The enemy would have
come for us anyway.

We need to be prepared,

and no matter what anyone
says, the people at the SGC

have done the best anyone
could under the circumstances.

You don't trust
the vice president.

He obviously has
his own agenda.

I know he tried
to shut them down

when he was
at appropriations.

Well, frankly,
I think the vice president

knows as well as anyone else
it's too late for that.

If he didn't sixyears ago,
he certainly does now.

What does that mean?

He clearly doesn't want
to shut the gate down anymore.

He wants to control it.

We have a civilian agency
known as the N.I.D.

Now, its mandate

has been to
keep an eye

on top secret projects
like the Stargate program,

and has done so
from the beginning.

I propose

that we give this organization
direct control of the gate

effective
immediately.

There's only
one reason

he wanted them to
give control to the N.I.D...

Because he was about
to become chairman

of the intelligence
oversight committee.

Which would have put
the N.I.D. And the Stargate

in his back pocket.

He had the ambassadors
eating out of his hand.

It was only because of some
extraordinary intervention

that it didn't work.

Hello?

Hello.

I am Thor, supreme
commander of the asgard fleet.

Commander Thor,
my name is...

Senator Kinsey.

O'Neill suggested I send
you to a distant planet

for your actions here,

but I am reasonably certain
his statement was in jest.

I'm sure it was,
commander.

Supreme commander.

It Is the opinion of
the asgard high council

that Stargate command
should be left

in the very capable hands of
general Hammond and his team,

and while our continued
friendship with earth

is not contingent
on that,

it is preferred.

Iwonder why
he wants it so badly,

I mean, besides his belief
in his divine right.

I don't know, sir.

Not that that's
not enough,

but...
I get this feeling

that there's something
more to it.

Yes, sir.

That rogue element
at N.I.D.

That he took credit
for taking down last year...

We've never had
any proof

connecting senator Kinsey
to anything nefarious.

I'm starting to get
a bad feeling

about where some of that
campaign financing came from.

Mr. President.

Did I say that
out loud?

Mr. Woolsey.

I hope my confidence in you
has not been misplaced.

You have my word, sir.

Once I finish
presenting the evidence,

the president
will have no choice

but to follow
your recommendation

and clean house
at Stargate command.

I'm sorry to keep you
waiting, Mr. President,

but I was just wrapping up a
meeting with the joint chiefs

when I got your message.

Francis, I thought you'd
want to sit in on this one.

Thank you, sir.

General, I don't believe
you know Richard woolsey.

For the past
several months,

he has been working
with the N.I.D.

Conducting a thorough
investigation

of all Stargate personnel.

I've asked him here to kindly
present us with his findings.

If this is
a discussion

about the confidence
of those running the SGC,

shouldn't George Hammond
be included?

Unfortunately, sir,

general Hammond
is part of the problem.

George Hammond is a
highly decorated officer,

a 30-year veteran with
the United States air force,

and while that may not carry a
lot of weight over at the N.I.D.,

it still means something to
certain people in this town.

This isn't
atrial, general...

Although it certainly wouldn't
surprise me if it came to that.

Let's stick
to specifics here.

If these people need to be
replaced, I want to see evidence.

Thank you, Mr. President.

The most recent incident
was less than a month ago.

General Hammond ordered
an off-world rescue operation

despite ample indication

that he was sending
his people into an ambush.

As a result,

a very valuable member of
Stargate command was killed...

Dr. Janet fraiser.

Sending your people into
potentially dangerous situations

is a natural consequence
of military command.

Maybe so, but ignoring
evidence of an enemy trap

is at best foolish and at
worst criminally negligent.

General Hammond admits
his responsibility.

His own report
is essentially a confession.

All that proves is the man had
the guts to own up to his mistakes.

Unfortunately, in this
case, mistakes can lead

to compromising
the entire planet.

I have uncovered
a mountain of evidence

implicating
not only general Hammond,

but his first-line
team as well.

Those people
are heroes.

We have no
intention of minimizing

the accomplishments
of either the general or SG-1.

Their respective
achievements

speak for themselves,

but intermittent successes

cannot excuse
ongoing misconduct.

Over the past
seven years,

SG-1 has shown a disregard
for military authority.

They have compromised
national security

and exercised
extremely poor judgment

in the performance
of their duties.

You should be
on my speech-writing team.

Come on,
cut the crap, will you?

As crazy
as it sounds,

we're sitting around here, talking
about people who are fighting aliens,

right?

Could we please
be specific?

Yes, sir.

Let's start
with insubordination.

Approximately five
and a half years ago,

the gate
was shut down.

The SGC was
under orders

to suspend
all off-world travel

pending a full review.

SG-I chose to ignore
those orders.

And in the process, they
managed to head off an invasion.

Nonetheless,
they were guilty,

and it was by no means
an isolated incident.

Let's go.

O'Neill.

Not this time, Teal'c.

They sabotaged
a mothership

the Goa'uld would have
eventually used to attack earth.

They used
the Stargate

against a direct order
of a superior officer.

You can't hold them
accountable for that.

Read the damn
mission report.

They were under the
influence of an alien device.

Yes, of course,

which brings us
to the alarming frequency

with which members of SG-1
have fallen under alien influence.

Major Samantha Carter...

Implanted
with a Goa'uld symbiote.

Then, two years ago, her body
became host to an alien virus.

Daniel Jackson...

Fell under the influence of alien
technology on numerous occasions,

had his body play host
to not one,

but 12 alien psyches
simultaneously.

Most interestingly
of all,

apparently died,

and according to the report,
"evolved into a higher being."

Teal'c...

An alien, former
soldier of the Goa'uld,

now possesses
full security clearance

at our most
secret facility.

He earned that trust.

Yes. That trust
almost cost SG-1 dearly

when he rejoined
the ranks

of the system lord
apophis.

Buddy.

What you got going here, Teal'c?

Well done, Teal'c.

Finally, you have resumed your
rightful position as my first prime.

He'd been brainwashed
by the enemy.

Yes,

like his fellow
team members,

he too has shown a
vulnerability to alien influence,

which finally brings us
to the team leader,

Jack O'Neill.

Infected by alien contagions
a half-dozen times,

experimented upon
by extraterrestrials

another half-dozen times,

had his memories manipulated
on numerous occasions...

Had the entire repository
of an ancient alien database

effectively downloaded
into his head.

Colonel.

Not long after this incident,

the colonel began exhibiting
strange behavior,

speaking an alien language,

demonstrating
superhuman intellect.

As it turns out,
he was undergoing

some sort
of transformation

as a result of the
knowledge he had absorbed.

Were it not for the
timely intervention

of another alien race,

he would have been
lost to us.

How these people maintain
their sanity is beyond me.

I'm having trouble just
sitting here listening to it.

That, Mr.
President, is exactly my point.

How can we trust
these individuals

to protect our planet

after everything
they've been through?

Well, they seem to
be handling it very well.

But who's to say they
are completely free

of these influences?

They're routinely checked and
cleared by medical professionals.

We can no longer allow the
Pentagon to look the other way.

The number of times
the members of SG-1

have been
compromised

should have warranted
at least a reconsideration

of their off-world status,

transfers
to less decisive positions,

a couple of sick days,
for god's sake.

The first time
I heard about this,

I couldn't believe
what I was hearing.

I tried to
imagine myself

doing what these people have
been doing for the last seven years,

and quite frankly,

I don't think
any of us

can really understand what
they've been going through,

no matter
how many files we read.

All the more reason
for intensive scrutiny.

If new protocols and standards
of conduct need to be established,

this is where
it has to start.

What do you say
we take a break?

Yes, sir.

You can't possibly
be taking their side.

I need time to
absorb this, Bob.

We may not have much time.
The longer those people...

Relax.

All I'm saying
is at the moment,

I'm going to give them
the benefit of the doubt.

I need to know more.

I think you know
all you need to know,

and that includes
why you're here.

I'm here, Bob,

because the people
of this nation

elected me to run their country,
not the whole damn galaxy...

And this is my
office, Bob, not yours,

not matter what you may think
you did to make this happen,

and don't you ever,

for one second,
forget that.

Yes, Mr. President.

Let's take a break.

According to
the military,

Stargate command
is our first

and best line
of defense

against potential alien
threats to this planet.

If that's true,

we should be very,
very concerned.

Time and again, general
Hammond and SG-1

have demonstrated
shockingly poor judgment,

placing themselves,
the base, this very planet,

in jeopardy.

The decision to bring back
suspect technology

through the gate

has precipitated a
number of crisis situations.

Forthe most part,
they've been dealt with

within the confines
of SGC.

However,
last year,

the effect of an alien
device broke containment

and found its way
into the civilian population.

Son of a...

Sir, have
reason to believe

an individual
I came in contact with

has breached
the quarantine.

The situation
was taken care of.

A cover story
was created,

and the civilian population
was none the wiser.

Well, I, for one,
would like to know

how many more times
we're going to have

to clean up
after these people.

They have a mandate to
acquire off-world technology,

and that entails
necessary risks.

And how would you
define "necessary"?

Only a few months ago,
general Hammond

allowed the testing

of an unproven
computer virus

that infected
and shut down

our entire
gate network,

leaving us open to a
potential planetary assault.

You can't hold Hammond
responsible for that.

It was a Goa'uld
modification of the virus

that caused the problem.

In other words,

general Hammond
effectively gave the Goa'uld

a weapon to use
against us.

Like the president said,

you can't even begin
to understand

what their jobs
demand of them.

Maybe not,

but I would like to think that
it includes common sense

and the willingness to
set aside personal feelings

in the heat of battle.

What are you referring
to, Mr. Woolsey?

An incident,
three years ago,

when general Hammond

allowed emotion to override
established gate room protocol.

Evacuate the gate room.

Colonel O'Neill,
we're taking fire.

Report.

Colonel O'Neill.

Sir.

Give them some more time.

General Hammond's decision to
wait for SG-1 worked out in the end,

but I can't help but
wonder if he'll be so lucky

the next time.

The members of SG-I have
similarly suspect priorities,

and no wonder...

Not one, but two people
that Dr. Jackson

had close personal
relationships with

were taken
as Goa'uld hosts.

Teal'c's family

and associates amongst
the ranks of the enemy Jaffa

make him an easy target for
Goa'uld retaliation and manipulation.

And both colonel
O'Neill and major Carter

have demonstrated
an alarming tendency

to let interpersonal
relationships

cloud their decision-
making process.

They have a right
to their feelings...

Unless, of course,
you're suggesting

some kind of...

Inappropriate
relationship here?

Inappropriate, yes.

That is exactly
what he's suggesting.

It's difficult to come
away from these reports

without
the distinct impression

that there's a lot more going
on between colonel O'Neill

and major Carter

than simple
friendship and respect.

For example, there
was an incident last year

in which colonel O'Neill
went missing.

Based on a report filed
by one of the scientists

on the mission
in question,

major Carter's behavior
was erratic at best.

Major, this technology is unlike
anything we've come across before.

I know.

We have no reference,
no way to interface.

I'm working on it,
doctor...

As you should be.

Right.

Excuse me.

Where's colonel O'Neill?

I don't see him. Do you?

Did you guys find him
while I was gone?

I say when
we're done here.

That's it?

That's your evidence?

I believe there's a lot more
to this than we've been told,

but, of course, I
hardly expect them

to incriminate
themselves

with their own
reports...

But we can all read
between the lines.

All right,
I've heard enough.

Thank you, gentlemen.

Thank you, Mr. Woolsey.

Mr. President.

Mr. Woolsey is here
to seeyou, sir.

Send him in.

Would you like a drink?

No, thank you.

That was nice work today,
Richard.

Really?

I got the distinct feeling
it didn't go so well.

Oh, well...
Doesn't matter.

It doesn't?

Nah.

The president
is going to come around.

I didn't get that impression,
Mr. Vice president.

In fact, I clearly sensed
that he was siding

with the chairman
of the joint chiefs.

Today was a formality.

Don't get me wrong.

The job you did
was vital.

The president has to appear
to be hearing both sides,

considering his position,

but... he'll see things
my way eventually.

And if he doesn't?

Things happen.

What is that
supposed to mean?

It means you chose
the right side, Richard.

One way or another,

I promise you...

I'm going to win
this one.

Mr. President.

General.

I take it
you're here

to present a case
for the defense?

I'm not going to get
into a point-counterpoint.

Look, it may very well be

that Hammond and SG-1
have done their very best

under difficult
circumstances,

but there's a political aspect
to the vice president's position

that makes
a lot of sense.

Sir?

A lot of people
know about Stargate.

We can't keep it
a secret forever.

When it finally
comes out,

we're going to be
in the fight of our lives.

We'll need
the public's confidence.

And you think cleaning
house at the SGC now

shows you're in control.

You disagree?

I think there's time
for that still, sir,

but for
the immediate future,

I'm here to let you know
what you're up against,

and why we need Hammond
and SG-1 right now more than ever.

Have a seat
and fire away.

The system lords

have proven themselves
to be formidable adversaries,

and yet, despite our
obvious disadvantage,

we've managed
to hold our own,

maybe even take them
down a notch or two.

We've been good,
and we've been lucky,

but I'm afraid
that could change.

There's a new Goa'uld
in the mix.

I take it you're referring to the
one who calls himself Anubis.

He's more powerful
than any of his predecessors.

He came to our attention
a little over a year ago

when he tried to take
out earth with an asteroid

and then used
our own Stargate

as aweapon
against us.

We thwarted him both times.

Since then, he's redirected
his attention to his rivals,

waging a year-long war
against the Goa'uld.

Yourtime is up.

Well, it's good
for us.

Let them fight
amongst themselves.

The problem is

when he's through with them,
and it's only a matter of time,

he'll come
gunning for us,

and when he does,

we'll be facing
a whole new threat.

Fire in the hole!

A super soldier.

Not just one...
He's got a whole army.

Hail, Anubis. Hail, Anubis.

If that's true,

I can't imagine how
having SG-1 on the front lines

is going to make one
damn bit of difference

when the time comes.

Anubis may be
incredibly powerful,

but he's not invincible.

There is a way
to take him out.

And how's that?

By finding the lost city.

You'll have to forgive me,
Francis. I'm not up to speed.

I've only gone through
about a third of those files.

The gate system
was built

by a highly advanced race of
aliens known as the "ancients."

They died off
millions of years ago,

but it seems they haven't
disappeared completely.

They've evolved
into higher life forms.

Well, will they help us?
No, sir.

Why the hell not?

Its beneath them.

They won't involve
themselves in our affairs.

So where are you
going with this?

Last year,

SG-I made an amazing discovery
on a planet called abydos.

You're going to find the
lost city of the ancients.

Lost city?

Didn't tell him
about that either, huh?

Daniel found
a tablet

talking about
a lost city.

With our powerful
ancient weapons

capable of giving you
a big advantage over Anubis.

You know where it is?

No, but I'll help
you find it.

Hammond and SG-1

are close to finding
the lost city.

Let them do
their job, sir.

Let them save this planet
one more time.

I wish it were
that simple.

I'm not sure
what you mean, sir.

The vice president
may be a pain in the ass,

but I can't just
ignore him.

You're the commander
in chief. It's your decision.

True...

But if cross him
on this one...

Well, let's just say

that I haven't viewed
all the angles yet.

Is there anything
you haven't told me?

No, sir.

Then as far as
I can tell,

Hammond and SG-I have
done an extraordinary job

under very difficult
circumstances,

but in doing so,

they've made
some mistakes.

They've made
some enemies,

and frankly, I don't know
if I can protect them.

General.

Mr. Woolsey.

Thank you
for meeting me.

I take it
the vice president

doesn't know
about this.

No, and I'd like
to keep it that way.

What do you want?

I want to warn you.

I think the vice
president may be involved

with people capable of...
Well, anything.

I believe they may have even attempted
assassination at least once before

as a means
to get what they wanted.

Do you realize the seriousness
of what you just said?

Yes, sir.

Look, no matter
what you might think of me,

I consider myself to be
a man of integrity.

I took the job
with the N.I.D.

Because
I strongly believe

in civilian oversight of top
secret military operations...

Mr. Woolsey.

I don't have
any proof, sir,

but I'm starting
to question

whether those to whom I've
dedicated my allegiance...

Are as honorable
as I'd hoped.

You're a resourceful man,
Mr. Woolsey.

If you think
there's proof out there,

find it.

Hammond.

Show him in.

General.

This must be important for
you to have come all this way.

I know you have no reason
to trust me, general.

That's why I felt
I had to come here in person.

Sit down.

I take great pride
in my work, general.

My job demands
meticulous research

and above all else,
impartiality in its execution.

My aim is to present
an air-tight argument,

a point of view for
consideration by those I serve

with no personal agenda
whatsoever.

Get to the point.

I stand by my case against
you and your personnel,

despite what I'm about
to say to you.

I hope you don't expect
that to gain my respect.

You recall
the assassination attempt

on then senator Kinsey?

The senator's been
hit. He's been hit.

And later
gained notoriety

from bringing
those responsible to justice?

I can only assume you're
going somewhere with this.

Let's just say I've
recently come to believe

that those behind the
rogue element of the N.I.D.

Have not entirely been
eliminated.

In fact, they may be
stronger than ever,

and vice president Kinsey
may still be tied to them.

They tried
to have him killed,

and then he tried
to take them down.

That seems unlikely.

At the time,

something must have
made Kinsey a liability,

but after the assassination
attempt failed,

the opportunity
presented itself

to propel Kinsey
onto the presidential ticket.

That could have been enough
to motivate a reconciliation.

Either way, I'm not surprised
by any of this, Mr. Woolsey.

Well, I'm sorry to say
that I am,

and I want to do
something about it if I can.

Like what?

Like present
evidence,

if there is any,

connecting Kinsey
to illegal activity

involving those
behind the rogue N.I.D.

What makes you think
evidence like that exists?

Because you're sitting
right there.

I'm sorry?

Three years ago, you left
SGC, supposedly retired.

I'm guessing
you were blackmailed.

And?

And then you came back.

Nothing about that
ever made any sense to me.

I want to know why, how.

You've got something on Kinsey,

something
I can use.

That's it, we're in.

I'm dowloading now.

Kinsey's on-line activities
connect him to N.I.D. Actions

over the last year
and a half...

Including a secret
operation I ran out of area 51,

the involvement
with the Russians...

And the threats
to Hammond.

You're a piece
of work, Kinsey...

You try to shut down
the SGC,

you make this big speech about how
much you hate secret organizations,

then you jump in bed with
the N.L.D. What is that?

I'm done.

What are you
going to do?

Take down the whole N.I.D.?

No.

Here's the deal...

Get them to
reinstate Hammond,

orthis disk
goes to the press.

You've got
connections, general.

You must know
what's going down.

That's not
the only copy.

Why haven't you given
this to someone before now?

I didn't know
who to trust.

I still don't.

Yes, sir,
right away.

The president
will see you now.

Thank you.

Thank you for seeing
me, Mr. President.

Is there something you
wanted to add to your report,

Mr. Woolsey?

Yes, sir.

As I'm sure you're aware,

the N.I.D. Does not exactly
have a spotless record.

For several years,

a group of rogue agents
operated inside of its ranks.

They were acting
on behalf

of a cabal of international
business interests

intent on acquiring alien
technology for their own profit.

One could only hope.

Mr. President?

I know they're out there,
Mr. Woolsey.

What I'm saying
is one could only hope

that money was
their chief motivation.

However, I doubt the type
of person who is behind this

is shortsighted
enough for that

given what
he must know.

In light of the new reality
that Stargate presents,

there are aspirations
beyond mere financial greed

that could be
much worse.

I agree.

You're here to tell me that the vice
president is still in league with them?

If these people are as
powerful as we both think,

it does make one wonder

what the vice president could
have possibly offered them

in exchange for the
price on his head.

Obviously, the full control
of the Stargate program

that the white house
affords.

The vice president brought key
financing to your campaign victory.

I just hope it didn't come
at too high a cost.

I also hope history
one day shows that...

I tried to do
the right thing.

Whose version of
history, Mr. Woolsey?
