Previously, on
Stargate Atlantis.

What do we know
about the wraith?

They are the enemy
that defeated the ancients.

A few hundred years
pass before they awaken.

We have visited many worlds.

I know of none
untouched by the wraith.

You are doomed, as are any
humans that stand in our way.

The ancients
researched ascension.

What is ascension?

Where they rid themselves
of their physical bodies

and rise to a higher plane
of existence

where they live as pure energy.

I count two. How about you?

Yes, sir.
I recommend shooting back.

That hit must've caused
some damage. McKay?

I'm on it.

Where did they come from?

The darts are
short-range fighters.

There's probably
a hive ship somewhere.

Then we need to get out of here.

Yes, we do.

The Stargate is the other way.

This is the scenic route. McKay!

I'm almost there.

There's one on our tail!

Keep your eye on the other one.

You should have weapons.

Sure? Negafive.

Positive!

I'm pretty sure I fixed it.

Well, obviously you didn't!

We could lose them
in the atmosphere.

Two more darts
on our two o'clock.

I see 'em. McKay!

It's not like
I'm holding back on you.

Hang on!

The wraith darts
have been destroyed.

That's a good thing.

I thought for sure we were dead.

Didn't you think we were dead?

What was that?

Some sort of energy weapon.

What do you say we find out?

Yeah.

So, just to confirm, we're
all still definitely not dead.

I feel very much alive.

Good. Same here.

Wish I knew what that was.

Lightning?

Space lightning?

It's some sort of
an energy weapon.

One that destroys wraith darts.

But why them and not us?

Assuming that we're still alive,

and there doesn't appear to be
any damage, we can conclude that...

.Um...

I got nothing to conclude. I'm
just talking for the sake of talking.

Are you sure you're ok?

I hate certain death.

You're alive.

Could it be naturally occurring?

My money's on non-naturally.

A weapon the ancients left?

A weapon that impressive
would be powered by...

A zero-point module.
We need to get down there.

I've got to put down and check for
damage anyway before we head back.

If there is a weapon somewhere down
here, sir, these folks didn't build it.

Not these kids.
Picking up anything?

Everything, just nothing
worth mentioning.

These folks look familiar?

The Stargate is in orbit.

My people could never
have ventured here.

Right. What say we venture?

It's ok. We're friendly.

It is likely they have never seen
anyone from outside their village.

Welcome.

I am zarah, one of
the abbots of proculis.

I'm John. John Sheppard.

This is Teyla, lieutenant
Ford and dr McKay.

Please, come.

This is the first time,
at least in my own lifetime,

that people from another
land have come to us.

Well, we came by ship.

A flying thing that allows us to
move from one world to another.

Another world?

From among the stars
in the night sky.

We are peaceful explorers.

Then glory to athar
for bringing you here safely.

Athar?

The provider
and protector of all.

Surely you know.

Athar is known by many names
among the stars.

Is athar around?

We'd love to talk to him.
We're friends.

Athar is friend to all,
and with us always.

Even now.

Of course. Hi, athar.

What dr McKay means is
that we wish to offer our thanks.

We were attacked by the
wraith and would have been killed

were it not for athar.

Wraith?

Pale skin, sunken eyes, suck
the life out of you with their hands.

We have never
encountered such beings.

Never?

And there is no mention
of them in your history?

None. I can assure you that
for many thousands of years

we have lived here in peace.

Could you excuse us
for a moment?

Of course. Please, I must tell
the other abbots of your arrival

before we go to meet with Chaya.

Chaya is...

The high priestess of athar.

This is a great day
for our people.

Ours too.

I'm not kidding.
This could really work.

I agree, major.

Every inhabited world
I have encountered

has been ravaged by the wraith.

It's protected
by an ancient weapon.

This confirms it. Does it?

The power requirements
must be astronomical.

Only a zpm could generate that.

They do not appear to be
technologically advanced.

Unless that guy was lying. He
doesn't seem like the lying type.

So, automated defenses?

Imagine a world where displaced
refugees could come and live in peace

without fear of being
culled by the wraith.

We can negotiate a treaty.

We need access
to the weapon or zpm.

Not that we'd steal it.

Let's try to stay
on our best behavior.

I'm always on my best behavior.

How much farther?

Not very.

Oh, good.

We could have taken the jumper.

Exercise is good.

Chaya does live pretty far
from your people.

It is not uncommon, major, for
clerics to live apart from the community.

Glory to athar.

Welcome, and rest.

Thank you, sister.

You are new to proculis.

Yes. We're brand-new, in fact.

Major John Sheppard.

I am called Chaya sar.

And you are Teyla,
lieutenant Ford and dr McKay.

How did she know that?

One of the abbots ran ahead.

It's a pleasure
to meet you, Chaya.

You must be tired after your long
journey. Shall I prepare some tea?

Well, I was hoping you
were gonna say just that.

Where do they come from?

They're everywhere
in this galaxy.

They've been on top of the
food chain for a long time.

It's terrifying.
Truly terrifying.

My heart goes out
to your people, Teyla.

It is not only
my people who suffer.

The wraith have awakened
from a long sleep

and this entire world is safe from
the culling that has already begun.

Even Atlantis,
with all its wonder,

may not survive the onslaught.

It is our hope that athar could
Grant sanctuary here on proculis.

Sanctuary?

For so many?

We're not talking about
everybody in the galaxy showing up.

This planet is pretty big.

And largely uninhabited.

More importantly, it is
protected by your weapon.

Weapon? I am aware of
no such thing on proculis.

Are you sure about that?

Yes.

Oh, please.

Rodney, best behavior.

This is as good as it gets.

Chaya, we're alive because
of a powerful energy weapon

that emanated from this planet.

It destroyed the enemy ships. That
weapon is keeping the wraith away.

No, dr McKay. It was
athar who protected you.

Athar?

Yes. Athar saw you were in need.

Chaya, there are
a lot of people just like

you and me who are in
need because of the wraith.

What you have here,
what athar has provided you,

is a very rare thing,

but we have a lot to offer too.

That's what friends do.
They share.

I think we could
help each other.

I understand.

I shall consult with her now.

Please stay here. I don't
know how long this will take.

Thank you.

"What athar provides for you?"

Are you buying into this?

Rodney, what religious people
don't take their religion seriously?

We didn't imagine that weapon.

We saw what it was capable of.

Yes, we did.

Perhaps Chaya is simply
unaware of the weapon's existence.

Or she knows and wants
to keep it a secret from us.

She doesn't strike me
as the lying type, either.

All right, let's just see
what athar has to say.

So, pay no attention to the
man behind the curtain, hmm?

Exactly.

Major. We have conveyed
your request to our divine mother.

She does not doubt the
righteousness of your mission,

but she cannot countenance any
other people but hers settling here.

You had to chant all that
time to come up with that?

McKay.

Is there any way
athar can reconsider?

Athar understands
and sympathizes.

These wraith are a scourge
among our stars.

But she has to place the
lives of her people first.

We both knew what you were
gonna say before you even went in.

We prayed for athar's guidance.

And what did athar say?

You're hiding behind your
religion to justify your selfishness.

Rodney...

If athar existed,
she would be ashamed.

We ask only to be
left alone and in peace.

So thousands will die when
they could have been saved,

all in the name of athar.

How peaceful of you.

You should be grateful to athar.

This is a waste of time.

Athar regrets
that she cannot help.

I'm sure those were
her exact words.

That's enough!

Head back to the jumper.
I'll be there in a minute.

Why? 'Cause you're not helping.

Yes, sir.

I apologize.

He acts only in accordance
to his beliefs, as do we.

But Rodney
is right about one thing.

This really is about lives,
human lives.

The wraith will show up
in Atlantis. When they do...

You're a warrior.

Well, I don't know
about "warrior".

It is your vocation, major.
You will fight.

I'll try, but knowing what
we're up against, and the odds...

Look, I'd appreciate it
if you would ask athar

to consider
that we are her people.

Even though we come from very far
away, we're the same, we're human,

which means we're not
strangers, we're family.

Whoa.

Evening breeze.

I was hoping it was
a sign from athar.

Your words are most
compelling, major Sheppard.

Thank you. I was
going for compelling.

Do you truly believe
we are family?

We are. I can prove it to you.

How?

Come back to Atlantis.

See who we really are. Once
athar learns more about us...

This is acceptable.

It is?

Chaya, please, you cannot leave.

Athar is with us always, no
matter where we are, zarah.

I understand.

I am ready.

Welcome to Atlantis. Thank you.

Our doctors do require
a medical exam

of all off-planet team
members and our visitors.

Then perhaps you'd like a tour.

I would.

Major Sheppard has
already promised to do so.

Of course he has.

Of course I have.

If you'll follow me
to the infirmary.

Maybe I should tag along...

I think I got a handle.

There are a lot
of systems you know...

Got it covered.

Fine.

Hold still. Just a minute more.

Well, it seems
you're just as lovely

on the inside
as you are on the out,

if health is synonymous
with beauty.

You can get up now.

How does this device
do what you say it does?

It creates images of the
tissues inside your body.

They are picture perfect.

Are these machines
from your world?

Some. Others are
atlantean technology

that we've
figured out how to use,

and a few, well, I haven't the
vaguest idea of what they do.

Hopefully one day
I'll meet one and ask them.

Do you know what
happened to them?

Some returned to earth
after the war.

That much we know.
But some of them ascended.

Ascended?

To a higher plane, where
they exist only as energy.

Are all the people of your
world as healthy as you?

Yes.

No disease, ailments?
No one ever breaks a leg?

Such things are rare, but
my people heal quite rapidly.

Really?

Are we done?

Are we?

Healthiest patient I've
ever had. Off you go, love.

Where are we?

Either she knows
where the weapon is,

or she has no idea
and we are wasting our time.

What do you suggest?

Scan the planet
for energy signatures.

They won't know what we're doing

unless they're advanced
and pretending not to be,

which has happened before.

Did you find something that would
suggest they are more advanced?

No. They're pathetically
pretechnological

or brilliantly
post-technological.

There's no way
this could be natural?

A timed energy burst that
only affected wraith ships?

That's a no? That's a no.

Dr Weir, I have those results.

Thank you, Carson.
We're on our way.

How many of you are there?

Counting the athosians on the
mainland, a couple of hundred,

which leaves a very large,
empty city.

We're living in one section

because we don't have
the power to spread out.

What do you think so far?

I think it's wondrous.

But ultimately the decision
is up to athar.

You're not a believer, are you?

Look, Chaya,
I respect that you believe.

Look, I can't talk to athar.
I can only talk to you,

so let me ask you this.

What if the shoe
was on the other foot?

What if your people
were in trouble?

Would you just
take no for an answer?

It must have been very hard to
live under the shadow of the wraith.

Teyla and her people have
known the wraith forever,

but when I say we're new,
I mean we just got here.

We're from
a planet called earth.

Eaflh?

It's very far away.

Those clusters of stars
in the night sky,

some of 'em are called galaxies.

They're even further
away than the stars.

Earth is in one
of those galaxies.

You came through the Stargate?

That's right.

And can you not simply return?

Well, not simply.

We knew that it was probably
going to be a one-way trip,

but we thought what we would
find here would be worth the risk.

And is it?

So far.

Ask me again when
the wraith show up.

Blood work shows no viral,
bacterial or parasitic infections.

Mri reveals
no tumors or cancers,

no heart defects of any kind.

Blood pressure 130 over 70.
Total cholesterol 107.

She's in perfect health.

I'm happy for her.
Why did we need to see this?

She's too healthy.

What does that mean?

There's no trace
of congenital conditions

that you typically find in
pretechnological societies.

No rickets, no fungi, stds...

Perfect health? Aye.

From what she told me, this may
be the norm among her people.

But she is human?

Without a doubt.

How is that possible?

I can't say for certain.

But if this data is accurate, people
on proculis live in optimal health

for a very, very long time.

You make it sound
like some sort of a...

Paradise? Because it is.

And that's a problem because...

Because human life,
quite simply, dr Weir,

is more fragile than that.

I don't care what galaxy
we're in, it's unnatural.

The ocean air
is so invigorating.

Plenty of that here.
Most of the planet's ocean.

There's enough land
to resettle the refugees.

Well, there is. We just
can't guarantee their safety.

Even though you
control all of this?

I'd be lying if I said
we controlled it all.

This place is so far
beyond us in so many ways.

We have a shield
that can withstand

anything the wraith
could throw at us,

but we have no way
of powering it up.

We can't risk taking in any more
refugees than we already have.

Come with me.

Major Sheppard...

I'd prefer you to call me John.

John. How did you make
enemies of the wraith?

That was my fault.

Yours?

Iwoke them up trying
to rescue some people.

They didn't take
too kindly to that.

But you saved your people?

Most of 'em.

You know for sure
they're coming back?

Yeah, we just don't know when.

Main control console,

environmental support systems,

communications.

And this... this is, uh...

Sorry, major. We haven't
the faintest idea what...

This is a new piece of
equipment we found in the city.

It hadn't been initialized.

She has...

She has the gene.

Did I do this?
What does the machine do?

We don't know. Not yet, anyway.

The atlanteans were good
at lots of things.

Writing instruction manuals
wasn't one of 'em.

We should probably
wrap this tour up.

I know dr Weir
is anxious to talk to you.

Will I see you afterwards?

And during.

We are proposing
a kind of land lease

in which refugees rendered
homeless by the wraith

could resettle on proculis.

In return, we can offer you
services and knowledge.

Such as?

You've seen
the technology we possess.

We could help you down a
path to an industrialized society

while maintaining your
planet's ecological balance.

Your scientific knowledge
is impressive, dr Weir,

but we have no need of it.

Athar provides us
with everything we require.

Well, food just doesn't
show up on the dinner table.

You plant all your own crops?

Of course we do.

We can help increase
your crop yields.

We grow all the food
we need to live.

Anything else would be gluttony.

Building materials, then.

We have abundant timber
and iron ore.

Athar is kind.

There must be something.

What my people value most
is spiritual knowledge.

What can your culture
provide in that regard?

Earth's people don't share
a single spiritual belief.

We embrace a number of
different religions and philosophies.

Christianity, buddhism,
judaism, islam...

Hinduism, kwanzaa...

Interesting. Tell me about them.

All of them?

Yes. They sound fascinating.

I am hardly competent
to discuss all religions,

but I can offer you resources.

You could have access
to our historical database.

That would be wonderful.

You got it working?

Yeah.

Well, do we know what it does?

It's an internal-external
biometric sensor array.

See, now, sadly,
I understood that.

Where did all those
Saturday nights go?

These are biosignatures
of everyone in Atlantis.

How can you tell?

I've been deciphering
the ancient logarithms.

I suspect this was
an early-warning system

to signal any alien
presence in the city.

And it activated when
our visitor touched it?

So she has the ancient gene.

Or it only activated
because it was detecting her.

She could be an alien and this thing
knows more about her than we do.

We should be
keeping an eye on her.

Major Sheppard is.

I'm sure.

Not entirely for
the reasons you think.

Dr Weir asked him to.

I'm sure she did.

Weir wanted Chaya
to see everything.

Everything?

Not everything. Chaya wanted to
see the best view of the city at night,

which I think is atop
the south-west pier,

and since it's such a long walk,

I thought I'd bring along
a few provisions.

Continuing our efforts
to secure a treaty.

Exactly.

As our ambassador.

I am an ambassador
and she is a diplomat.

On a late-night... picnic?

Yes.

I know that as ranking
military officer here in Atlantis,

you feel a heavy burden
of responsibility,

but you are allowed
to have feelings for others.

No, this is an ambassadorial,
diplomatic picnic outing... thing.

Without having
to justify them to anyone.

Goodnight, major.

Goodnight, Teyla.

Send her back?

She's not who
she's pretending to be.

You know this because...

I can't have intuition?

No. I asked major Sheppard
to keep an eye on her.

Which is like asking the fox
to guard the hen-house.

What?

The biometric differential is
not insignificant, Elizabeth.

What I'm saying is the
woman set off an alien alarm.

You don't know that for certain.

You are nowhere close to
understanding the nature of that device.

There are too many unknown
variables: The weapon,

they claim never to have
seen the wraith, she's healthy.

Very mysterious,
but what does it prove?

We should give her
a one-way ticket back home.

There is something
different about her,

but that doesn't necessarily
make her a threat.

Itdoesnt rule it out, either.

Then what we could gain by securing a
treaty is worth the risk of her being here.

Fine.

Mmm.

This is delicious.

Well, enjoy it while you can.

That's the last of what we have.

Then I am honored.

When McKay finds out,
he's gonna kill me.

Athar will save you.

Oh, good.

Such wondrous things.

I can't imagine
wanting to do anything

but eat with such
variety of foods.

We manage to pull
ourselves away somehow.

I've been learning
much about earth.

Dr Weir has got me
on your information machines.

Elizabeth's got you
on a computer already, huh?

I'm fascinated
by your many religions.

So many beliefs,
so many philosophies.

Yeah, we got a few of those.

So many contradictory faiths.

Yeah, it's a bit of a mess.

More?

Yes, please.

We traded for grapes.

The athosians, Teyla's people,

they make this on the mainland.

I wasn't completely truthful
with you about something.

On proculis, when I told you
I did not feel lonely...

Coming here and
being with you...

It reminded me what it
was like not to be alone.

What?

Well, I mean, nothing.

It's just that
this is the first time

I've been in
a romantic situation

with a woman
from another planet.

It just strikes me
as really, um...

Wrong? No! God, no.

Just... funny.

I'm sorry. I just
thought that I would, uh...

You said it yourself,
we're both human.

Yes, we are.

And I'm really glad you didn't say
"family", otherwise I'd have to leave.

I'm not going anywhere.

Major.

Rodney. What are
you doing up so late?

I couldn't sleep.

I was going to do
a little research. You?

No, thanks.

What were you doing up so late?

I'm always up late, Rodney.

A word of caution. The whole
captain kirk routine is problematic,

let alone morally dubious.

Routine?

Romancing the alien priestess.

Very 1967 of you.
I'm surprised...

If and when anything I do
becomes your business...

An alien woman who is
clearly not who she claims to be

has you wrapped around
her little finger.

Don't go there, McKay.

I know I'm not normally
mr sensitive.

But there is
something about her.

It's intangible,
but I can feel it.

I said don't go there!

It's just a matter of time
before I prove it, major.

I recommend that in the
meantime, you keep your...

Did you sleep last night? No.

This is the data
from the biometric sensors.

I can't tell you what all these
signatures mean, but look at this.

These are ours and this is hers.

There's a distinct difference.

She was born on another
planet in another galaxy.

They're different from Teyla's.

It doesn't mean...

She's not what she seems to be.

I sense an honest
and spiritual person.

All right. There may be
a way to find out.

You're opening negotiations
with her? Let me sit in.

I'll pretend to take notes
on the laptop and scan her.

Radiation, em scans,
energy signatures...

That way, if I am crazy,

you and I are the only ones
who need to know.

What's the harm?

All right.

But be discreet.

I'm mr discreet.

I'm impressed by most of
what I've read of earth religions.

The torah, the koran,
the talmud, the Bible...

Most reveal a diverse and
deep desire to grasp the divine.

So we have something
to offer you.

I've also read
about your history.

Even now, somewhere on
your planet, you are at war.

Well, yeah, that's true.

I made no attempt
to hide that fact from you.

We are definitely not perfect.

There's a lot about you
as a people I find disturbing.

Can that not be
said of any people?

Every soul in proculis
is free from the hatred

people from earth seem
to feel for each other.

We're not all that bad.
You know that.

I do.

I'm talking about every member of
my expedition team here in Atlantis

and the friends we've met since
coming here, like Teyla's people.

There are some among you,
yourself included, dr Weir,

that I know athar would
welcome with open arms.

But there are others.

I hand-picked every
member of this expedition,

and I know Teyla feels as
confident about her own people.

I'm sure.

This is a matter of trust.

Yes. It is, dr Weir.

Have your scans found
anything yet, dr McKay?

Actually...

No.

What the hell is this?

I'm sorry, major.

There was cause for
legitimate concern as to...

Whether I was or not
who I claimed to be.

I'm sorry, Chaya.
I felt it would do no harm.

Stop apologizing, Elizabeth.

How did she know? McKay.

She's an ancient, major.

She's what?

I'm right, aren't I?
The perfect health,

the energy weapon,
she has the gene.

It's the only
logical explanation.

What the hell
are you talking about?

I just don't understand the act.

You must know we'd give anything

to talk to you,
to learn from you.

What is it?
Are you checking us out?

In my desire to come to
Atlantis, I have revealed too much.

He's right? I'm right?

I am what you call an ancient,

and it is also true that I can
never offer your people sanctuary.

But you are wrong
as to why I came here.

Why did you come here?

You, John.

I have lived
in solitude for so long

that when
you asked me to come...

Oh, my god, he is kirk.

So this was never about...

Could we just have a moment
to ourselves here?

No.

That's all right.
I've stayed here long enough.

Come on.

You and your people were the
reason we came here in the first place.

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

What the hell was that?

They're coming for them.

I should have never left them.

What's going on?

I'm sorry, John.

I'm taking a jumper
back to proculis.

What just happened?

There's only
one way to find out.

Sure you know
what you're flying into?

The wraith are attacking
Chaya's people.

You can't hope to
defend them with one ship!

I don't think I'll have to.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to help you.

Help me?

To defend your people.

Leave. I will take care of this.

Is it Chaya or athar?
I'm just curious.

When I was a mortal, I lived
here. This was my home.

When those of us you call
the ancients ascended,

we were supposed to leave
behind us all human ties.

Some of us found that difficult.

You couldn't watch your people
get wiped out by the wraith.

When their fleet approached,
I lashed out

with my mind
and destroyed them all.

The others of my kind did not
approve of such interference.

And so I was exiled.

My punishment was the
unending protection of this world.

Why pretend to be human at all?

So that, time to time,
I may walk among the people,

know them as the good
and kind souls they are.

For thousands of years, I have
come and gone to the villages,

never staying too long
to get attached to anyone...

Until I met you.

I have never regretted the choice
I've made all of these years...

Until now.

I am permitted
to safeguard my people only.

But this is my punishment.

This is what
makes it punishment.

If your people came here for my
protection, the others would stop me.

Do you understand?
I can never help your people.

I'm not sure I'm willing
to walk away that easily,

and I'm not just
talking personally,

although that's

There is so much more
we can learn from you.

Icant, John.
The others won't allow it.

Thafs_.

It's their highest law
to never interfere.

I am bound by those laws,

We're more different
than you think.

I can show you.

Show me?

By sharing each other.

We will know each other
as well as anyone ever can.

Ok. I gotta get the car
back by midnight, though.

This will only
take a few moments.

Just close your eyes.

This is cool.
