Chris Judge: Previously, on Stargate SG-1 Marty’s arrival through the ‘Gate. Marty: I’m afraid he’s been captured by Sokar Sam: Oh, my God Marty: If Selmak is still alive, he has been sent to hell Hallway Jack: So we’re talking about a rescue mission Marty: No one has ever escaped from Netu. No one except for Jolinar Briefing Room Sam: I’ve never had anything more than scattered flashes of her memories Marty: the Tok’ra have technology that aids the recall of memories Teltak Rosha being tortured and Sam experiencing the pain Sam: Shut it off! Shut it off! Jack: Do it! Sam: She was tortured... so badly Teltak Jack: It’s her father, she knows the stakes Marty: But if Samantha cannot recall... Jack: It’s been done before. It can be done again FX shot of Teltak in orbit of Netu Marty: The atmosphere around the moon is impenetrable by ship. The only way to reach the surface is in the descent pods FX shot of the group on the surface of Netu Big cavern shot overlooking the city scape Jack: It’s certainly not Emerald City Cavern Sam: We’ve come to see Bynarr. Jack gets hit by the blast from the hand device Bynarr: (distorted) Who asks for me by name? Sam: I do! Bynarr: Throw them in the pit The pit Dad: Sam... Sam: Dad? Dad: Are you crazy? Jack: Uh, apparently Dad: Sokar’s fleet is ten times larger than we thought Sokar’s palace Sokar: (distorted) Find out what they want... then kill them Bynarr’s quarters Bynarr starts to use the hand device on Sam Sam: No. Wait Bynarr gets hit by the staff blast The pit Sam: There are transportation rings in Bynarr’s quarters FX shot of the Teltak being attacked The pit Marty jumping the big guy Daniel: Teal’c, do you copy? Teltak Teal’c is avoiding the gliders The pit Jack: We gotta go Bynarr’s quarters The door is blasted open Some Guy: Kneel before Na’onack! Na’onack: You shall call me Na’onack no longer. From this day forth, I will reclaim my real name: Apophis Chris Judge: And now, the conclusion Bynarr’s quarters Apophis’ eyes flash Jack: You do understand we’re not too happy to see you? Apophis: (distorted) Your insolence is music to my ears. When I first saw you here I knew I had found the path out of damnation. You will be the means by which I reclaim the power and position that is rightfully mine Daniel: Your mate Amaunet is dead. Apophis looks almost unhappy Daniel: Sorry to ruin your day. Actually, no, I’m wrong about that. I’m not sorry Apophis: Sokar sent word to me of Amaunet’s death. I did not believe it Daniel: Well, believe it. It’s true Apophis: Then it must also be true that Teal’c is the murderer Jack: Oh, that’s wrap things up real nice for you, wouldn’t it? Apophis: Why is the shol’va not with you? The Other Guy looks down at Daniel, then grabs him. Other Guy: This one conceals something He pulls out the communication device and hands it to Apophis Apophis: A communication device. Teal’c, this is your god, Apophis. Risen from the fires of Netu. The fate of your friends will be pleasant compared to what I have planned for you. Return them to the pit. Kintac [who I have been calling Other Guy throughout both transcripts] You will be my first prime Kintac: It is my honour Apophis: Search them, and do whatever is necessary to ensure that they do not escape again. But do not kill them. When they are done serving us, I will have that pleasure for myself The pit The trapdoor is shut, Jen tries not to sing the theme tune... Marty: I warned you when you sent Apophis through the ‘Gate that he could be revived using a sarcophagus. Sokar would rather see his victims suffering than dead Jack: He doesn’t seem to be suffering much Dad is unconscious in Sam’s arms. She puts a hand on his forehead Sam: He’s burning up Daniel: What is Apophis thinking? He can’t hope to defend himself from Sokar Jack: He seemed pretty confident to me Marty: Apophis has one chance. He must convince Sokar not to kill him. If the reason is good enough, he may even be able to buy his freedom Jack: With us? Marty: The information we hold. The secrets of Earth, and the Tok’ra On everyone’s “oh joy” look, we go into the OPENING CREDITS Starring Richard Dean Anderson as Jack O’Neill Michael Shanks as Daniel Jackson Amanda Tapping as Sam Carter Christopher Judge as Teal’c Don S. Davis as General Hammond Carmen Argenziano as Jacob/Selmak J.R. Bourne as Martouf/Lantesh William deVry as Aldwin Bob Dawson as Bynarr Peter Williams as Apophis Dion Johnstone as Na’onack Peter H Kent as Kintac David Palffy as Sokar Daniel Bacon as Technician Eli Gabay as Jumar Tanya Reid as Rosha/Jolinar Christine Kennedy as Young Sam Carter Dillon Moen as Charlie Supervising Producer: Robert C. Cooper Producer: N John Smith Written by: Robert C. Cooper Directed by: Peter DeLuise The cavern/cityscape Kintac: Silence, dogs! Apophis stands on the platform Kintac: Apophis speaks The pit Everyone looks up as they hear Kintac The cavern Apophis: Bynarr is dead. Sokar will come. The Denizens are a little shocked Apophis: You fear he will bring his wrath down upon us. But he cannot make out existence any worse Denizen: He could come in a ship and wipe us out from space! Apophis: I can deliver us from this place. I have killed the Devil’s servant! I will destroy Sokar! The Denizens start cheering The pit The guys look a little shocked to be hearing this Apophis: (v.o.) Those that follow and serve me will be led to freedom... The cavern Apophis: ...to a dominion! One in which the god Apophis, risen from the depths of the underworld will rule over all that was once shared by the Goa’uld The pit Jack: Well, this experience doesn’t seem to have humbled him much Apophis: (v.o.) The dawn of our deliverance is upon us! The cavern Apophis: Have no fear! Kintac: Bow to Apophis, the deliverer! Everyone bows their heads Apophis: Yes. Sokar will come The crowd cheers Apophis: I say let him come! Delmak FX shot of ships flying about the place, city scape Sokar’s palace A guard walks in Guard: My lord, a cargo ship was spotted in orbit around Netu. Two gliders gave chase but the cargo ship entered hyperspace and escaped Sokar: We must assume that the ship contained spies. The attack on the System Lords will begin sooner than planned. You will have the fleet ready in two days. Guard: My lord, the very best we can do… He is silenced by a look from Sokar. Sokar raises a hand, and the Other Guard almost smiles. The Guard knows not to fight Guard: The fleet will be ready, my lord FX shot of Netu’s surface Bynarr’s quarters Apophis is studying his reflection. Kintac walks in Apophis: How many follow me? Kintac: Three hundred. The rest have been banished to the surface. They will change their minds or die Apophis: Did you find anything when you searched the intruders? Kintac pulls out the device that switches on the memory recall thingy Kintac: Just this He hands it to Apophis Kintac: Even if all the Denizens decide to serve you, what good will it do? You cannot fight Sokar with crude weapons Apophis: Bynarr said he had one day to determine the identity of the intruders and report back Kintac: Then we have one day before Sokar sends his ship to destroy us Apophis: Not if I have something he wants Kintac: You will discover the identity of the intruders [huh? Who does Kintac think the people he just searched are?] Apophis: I already know their identity. By the time Sokar arrives I will know much more. Bring me the woman The pit The door is opened, and Kintac plus Jen’s Big Strong Men™ come in Kintac: The woman will come with me Jack: Umm... I don’t think so Kintac fires his staff weapon, hitting Jack in the knee. Jen not happy. Sam rushes to his side as he bites off what Jen assumes to be lots of naughty words Sam: OK, OK She leaves with them. When they’ve gone, Daniel and Marty go to Jack’s aid Marty: The wound appears cauterised but there may be bleeding beneath the surface Jack: (so in pain) Oh... God... Daniel makes a tourniquet out of something and ties it round the wound Jack: Easy! Daniel tightens the makeshift bandage Jack: Oh, you...! [no naughty words, Jack!] FX shot of the Teltak in hyperspace then internal shot of Teal’c in Stoic Mode Bynarr’s quarters Sam is hauled before Apophis. He nods to the guards then searches her for the recall device. Apophis: You used this device to access the memories Jolinar left in your mind. That is the only way you could have known how to escape. I will use it to get you to tell me everything I want to know. Sam: It doesn’t work that way. Apophis: I know how it works. When it is fully activated it makes your memories easily accessible to your conscious mind. He switches it on Flashback We see a photo of Dad and Young Sam, then a photo of Mama Sam. Young Sam then looks at herself in the mirror Bynarr’s quarters Sam: I won’t tell you anything Apophis nods to the guard who pours some red juice into a cup. He then grabs Sam’s face Apophis: The Blood of Sokar will cloud your mind Sam is forced to drink Apophis: Once under its spell you will tell me everything Sam gags and coughs Dad: Sam? Flashback Young Sam looks away from the mirror then back. In true Quantum Leap style she sees herself as she is now Dad: Are you almost ready? Bynarr’s quarters Sam isn’t happy Flashback Dad: Can we talk? Sam ignores him Dad: Sam, you haven’t said two words since… since the accident. Your brother’s made it pretty clear how he feels. Sam: He blames you Dad: I blame myself Sam: your work has always been more important than us Dad: You know that’s not true. I don’t want you to forgive me. I don’t know if I could accept that yet. I just want you to understand Sam: (turning to face him) You were supposed to pick Mom up. You were late. She took a cab. There was an accident. I understand. Dad: I couldn’t have known it would happen Sam: But Mom is dead Dad: Nothing I say or do can change that. All I can do is make sure the things she loved the most don’t die with her. Sam, without you and your brother, my life is over. Nothing else means more to me. Don’t forgive me. Just tell me that one day we’re gonna be OK. Bynarr’s quarters Still not happy Flashback Sam: He blames you Dad: I blame myself Sam: But Mom is dead Dad: Just tell me that one day we’re gonna be OK Bynarr’s quarters She’s still there... Flashback Dad: Just tell me that one day we’re gonna be OK Sam looks to Dad, confused Sam: No. I forgave you long ago. Why am I stuck in this? The same memory over and over. I guess if we never had this conversation neither one of us would be in this mess, would we? I would have gone on hating you and the military, I never would have got involved in the Stargate programme. You would have died of cancer Dad: Sam, I am dying Sam: What? Dad: I’m dying right now... (flash)... dying right now. Only you can save me (echoes) Tell me how to get home Sam: What? Dad: Tell me the way home, to Earth Sam: No. wait She gets up Sam: This is not right Dad: You’ll lose me forever if you don’t tell me the iris codes (echoes) Sam: This is not real Dad: Tell me Cut to Sam, and when we go back Apophis is there Apophis: (in Dad’s voice) Tell me The scene fades into Bynarr’s quarters Apophis: (yelling) Tell me! Sam: No! Apophis: tell me how to penetrate the Earth’s Stargate. Tell me how... or I will kill your father Sam shakes her head and we fade out in a white light Tok’ra base planet Apophis: (recording) Teal’c, this is your god, Apophis. Risen from the fires of Netu. The fates of your friends will be pleasant compared to what I have planned for you Teal’c switches it off Teal’c: It was then that I realised they would not be able to execute the escape plan. I entered hyperspace to avoid the gliders that had detected my presence Aldwin: You must have run the hyperspace engines at full power in order to make the journey so quickly Teal’c: The situation was urgent Aldwin: I understand your desire to report the information concerning Sokar’s planned attack against the System Lords as soon as possible. It may prove invaluable Teal’c: I have come seeking you assistance in order to rescue my friends and your fellow Tok’ra. I believe it to be only a matter of time before Sokar learns that Apophis has eliminated Bynarr and therefore takes action to restore control Aldwin: Wait here. I will consult the High Council and return shortly with a course of action He and the other Tok’ra leave Bynarr’s quarters A limping Jack [(((hugs)))] is brought before Apophis. He is forced to kneel Jack: Ow! God...! Apophis: Major Carter was most forthcoming Jack: She didn’t tell you squat. Oh, and by the way, I won’t either Apophis: You are not here to provide information. You are here for my amusement The recall device is put on his temple Jack: Oh! God, no! All right, all right, all right... It is switched on Flashback We’re in what we assume is Jack’s back yard. He has a baseball glove in his hand Jack: Charlie! Bynarr’s quarters Jack is reeling from the memory Apophis: You must be dying to quench your thirst Kintac brings over the Blood of Sokar. One of Jen’s Big Strong Men™ punches Jack on his bad leg so he cries out, allowing Kintac to pour the liquid down his throat. Jack closes his eyes The pit Sam wakes up Sam: Dad? Daniel: He’s, uh... not so good, but he’s still with us Sam: Apophis said he was gonna kill him Daniel: No. He, uh... he brought you back and took Jack Sam isn’t happy at the news Marty: Are you OK? Sam: They gave me something called the Blood of Sokar Marty: It is legendary. A strong narcotic that can cause very realistic hallucinations. I’m pretty sure I didn’t give anything up Dad: Sam? She crawls over to him Sam: I’m here. I’m here Dad: Sam, I hate to sound negative here Sam: Shh… Save your strength Dad: I don’t think I’m gonna make it Sam: No. That is unacceptable. Think about seeing your grandchildren again. Don’t make me have to explain this to them Dad nods then closes his eyes Sam: Martouf... If they come for you... Marty: I have endured torture before Sam: This is not like anything you could imagine. Everything seems real. Feelings, sensations. It’s like you’re actually there in your own past. And then suddenly everything seems wrong. Your mind gets all twisted. Just don’t let Apophis use Jolinar against you Marty: How could he? Sam: You must be angry about what Jolinar had to do in order to escape from here. Martouf... she loved you. Marty nods Jack’s flashback Jack: Charlie! Sorry I’m late. I stopped to get you somethin’ Shot of some playhouse thingy Jack: You in there? Charlie runs out from behind one of those plastic slide sets, brandishing a green plastic gun Charlie: You’re dead! You’re dead! When he play acts the firing of the gun, we hear real gun shot sounds Bynarr’s quarters Not a happy camper is Jack Flashback Jack: Where’d you get that? Charlie: Jeff Eisen gave it to me. It’s just a water gun Jack takes it from him Jack: It doesn’t matter Charlie: You have a gun (echoes) There’s a flash and the scene changes slightly Jack: That’s different Charlie: Why? Jack: Charlie... Charlie! Charlie walks away from Jack Jack: Where you goin’? Charlie: Inside Jack: Well, wait a minute. I got you somethin’. Come on, we’ll play some catch Charlie: This is not what happened, Dad. You’re changing everything just to make it better There’s a flash again Jack: I know. Can’t we just play catch? Charlie: What really happened is that you got mad at me and I went into the house. Two weeks from now I shot myself with your gun (echoes) your gun. We never played catch today and we never will Jack: Why? Why can’t we just play catch? Flash Charlie: I’ll play... if you tell me... (flash)... if you tell me Bynarr’s quarters Still not happy Flashback Jack: What? What do you want to know? I’ll tell you anything Hands Charlie the glove Charlie: Tell me how you made contact with the Asgard (echoes) Jack stops. Another flash Charlie: (echoing) the Asgard Jack: What? Charlie: You represented Earth in the negotiations between the Asgard and the System Lords Jack: How’d you know that? (echoes) Charlie: It’s OK, Dad. You can tell me. Tell me the address of the Asgard homeworld Jack: I don’t know it Charlie starts to walk towards Jack, but there’s another flash and then he’s right in front of him Charlie: Tell me the address of the world where you had ancients’ knowledge downloaded into your brain. That was cool, wasn’t it? [OK, how the hell does Apophis know all this? He’s not reading their minds, just bringing certain memories to the front and changing them!] Jack: You can’t know that. [but he can know that Jack’s changing things, and that in two weeks he’ll be dead?] This isn’t you Charlie: Sure it is. Come on, Dad. We’ll have a catch. Just like you want Jack: No. No. And we’re out in another white flash Tok’ra homeworld The rings on the Teltak drop Aldwin and a box inside. Teal’c comes through to the back and eyes it suspiciously. Well, OK, stoically. Aldwin: I have been instructed to return to Netu Teal’c: What is inside the container? Aldwin: A weapon Teal’c: For what purpose? Aldwin: The Tok’ra High Council believes that the uprising of Apophis presents a key opportunity He opens the box Aldwin: Sokar will take his mother ship into orbit around Netu to restore order there Teal’c: This weapon is intended for Sokar Aldwin: Yes, but unfortunately we have no weapons capable of penetrating the shields of a Goa’uld mothership Teal’c: How then will this weapon prove effective? Aldwin: I aim to launch it through the atmosphere of the moon into one of the holes of its surface and down into the core. There it will force the base elements into a cataclysmic chain reaction. The entire moon will explode, taking Sokar’s ship with it Teal’c: Along with everything else on that moon [bye, bye Emerald City...] Aldwin: The Tok’ra would not do such a thing unless there was no other alternative. Sokar cannot be permitted to rise to a dominant power. It would end our chances of ever overthrowing the Goa'uld Teal’c: What of rescuing my friends and the Tok’ra still trapped on that world? Aldwin: I am charged with my mission. If you intend to stand in my way, I will insist that you remain here on Vorash Teal’c: I will accompany you Aldwin: Then we must leave immediately The pit Jack is practically unconscious on the floor Daniel: Jack? Jack: No... I don’t wanna go to school Daniel turns him over and he wakes up fully Jack: Ow... Daniel: You OK? Jack: No Daniel: They, uh... they took Martouf Jack: They put that damn memory thing on me. And then they gave me something... that reminded me of the 70s Daniel: The Blood of Sokar Jack: Daniel... Daniel: Yeah? Jack: I’m gonna pass out again And he does FX shot of the Teltak in hyperspace Teltak Teal’c: If Sokar has not entered orbit around Netu when we arrive, a rescue could still be attempted Aldwin: Yes. But if he is already in orbit, we must act swiftly and launch the weapon. I don’t like this any more than you do. But essentially, this is war. If Sokar ascends to ultimate power the consequences will be far greater than losing a few good people Teal’c: I understand Aldwin: Timing will be critical. Once the weapon has been launched it will take approximately twelve minutes for the reaction in the moon’s core to reach critical mass. If Sokar has enough advanced warning he will have time to escape the range of the explosion Another FX shot of the Teltak in hyperspace Bynarr’s quarters Marty: No, please The memory device is removed by Apophis. He looks up as Sam is brought into the room. Marty in his half-drugged state sees Rosha being forced to kneel before him. The shot changes mid-flow so we see Sam Apophis: Jolinar was your mate Marty smiles weakly at Rosha Apophis: Tell me the location of the Tok’ra resistance or she dies Sam: Don’t do it, Martouf Apophis: Silence Marty can only see Rosha Marty: Please... Apophis: Tell me now Rosha: I’m not Jolinar. Don’t tell him anything (echoes) Apophis aims the staff weapon at the back of Sam’s neck, and opens it Apophis: Tell me Marty: I cannot let him kill you Rosha: No, Martouf. (softly) No, Martouf Marty starts to cry Marty: Entac Sam does the Closed Eye Thing Marty: The Tok’ra resistance is based on the planet Entac Apophis removes the staff Apophis: Return them to the pit. Bring me Daniel Jackson Marty and Sam are hauled off, leaving Apophis looking pretty pleased with himself Sokar’s palace The Guard walks in Sokar: Speak Guard: Your fleet is ready, my lord Sokar: You have done well Guard: Bynarr has not yet reported as you wished Sokar: I will take my ship, and cleanse the underworld so that its fires may be reborn. Then I will launch the attack on the System Lords. Soon the entire realm of the Goa’uld will serve me... or suffer the fate of the damned Cavern Daniel is marched through The pit Jack is trying to sleep, Marty is recovering, Sam is cradling Dad Marty: I knew it was you Sam: You shouldn’t have done it, Martouf Marty: I could not watch him kill you, Samantha Sam: You lied Marty: Entac is a primitive planet. There are no Tok’ra there Sam: You were very convincing. I believed you Marty: If Apophis believes he knows the location of the Tok’ra, what does he want from Dr Jackson? Flashback We’re in Daniel’s lab. He’s looking through his collection of rocks... I mean, artefacts. The whole thing is tinged with light, and there’s an echoey quality. Think the ascended scenes from Meridian in a tunnel. Jack walks in. [I think this is supposed to be set after Forever In A Day] Jack: Hey! I just wanted to see how you were doin’ Daniel: Good. OK. Kasuf sent me some of Sha’re’s things after the funeral. He said that, um... Well, he said that she would have wanted me to have them. There’s a flash, then a close up of the bowl he has in his hands, then another flash and we’re back to Daniel’s face Daniel: We both drank from this cup at our wedding. I know I shouldn’t have had any real hope, but um... Jack: Hey. You can never give up Daniel: How about now? Jack: Especially not now. Sha’re didn’t want you to just give up, did she? As I recall, she wants you to find the boy (echoes) Daniel: I thought you said that you didn’t believe me about Sha’re sending me the message through the hand device Jack: I’ve been wrong about a lot of things. And I know I don’t always sound like I believe you, but I do believe in you. What’d you say she called the boy? (echoes) Daniel: A Harsesis Jack: I mean, the kid holds all the knowledge of the Goa'uld who fathered him, right? Daniel: Yeah Jack: So, he could be the key to us finally kickin’ those slimy snakeheads out of the galaxy Daniel: Yeah, that’s... that’s what Sha’re said Jack: All you have to do is figure out where Amaunet sent him Flash, then close up on Jack Jack: The name? Flash, then back to Daniel Jack: Name of the place Amaunet sent the boy Daniel: No Jack: What? Daniel: No... I’m not telling you Jack: Come on. You know me. I just can’t remember... (flash, then close up)... can’t remember Wide shot of Daniel, then flash and close up Daniel: No Flash, then onto Jack Jack: You told me before Daniel: (puts his hands over his ears) No! Flash once, no change, flash again, and Daniel’s still in Bynarr’s quarters in the exact same position (just minus the glasses) Daniel: This is not real Bynarr’s communication device lights up Sokar: Hear me, Bynarr. Why do you defy your lord, Sokar? Apophis looks from the communication device to Daniel, then hits him. He then turns to the communicator Apophis: Bynarr is dead by my hand. I am Apophis, and the Denizens of Netu follow me Kintac removes the device from Daniel Sokar: I will bring the full force of my weapons down upon you. You will die in burning hell fire Apophis: First you will hear me Teltak They have arrived and are in orbit. However, so is Sokar’s mothership. Aldwin presses some buttons and most of the power cuts out Aldwin: We must hold our position in the shadow of the moon so we are not detected [how do Goa’uld sensors work? Is it just a bunch of Jaffa looking out of windows?] Bynarr’s quarters Apophis: Before you fire upon us, know this: I have tortured the intruders. Three from the Tauri and a Tok’ra. I have learnt much, including the location of the Tok’ra resistance. Bynarr was weak. He was incompetent. A Goa’uld of your superior power deserves more. I wish to serve you. I offer this information I have gathered as proof. Grant me an audience and allow me to show my reverence to you by bowing at your feet Sokar: I will grant you this request Apophis: I am forever in your service The communicator shuts off Apophis: Take him away A Jaffa(?) hauls Daniel to his knees. Looking up, Daniel sees his communicator on the table Kintac: Be quick! Standing up, Daniel punches the Jaffa in the stomach. It’s like punching a bag of flour. The Jaffa then takes a swing at Daniel who flies across to and onto the table, grabbing the communicator as he does so. The table then collapses from underneath him. The Jaffa picks him up off the floor, and hauls him out. Kintac send Jen’s Big Strong Men™ with him Apophis: Sokar will die by my hand and I will command his domain Kintac: Surely he will not let you enter his ship with weapons Apophis takes off the hand device Apophis: Do you think I am a fool? [Do you want me to answer that?] I have been planning this since the moment I was sent here. I will convince Sokar to make me the new lord of Netu. He will come down off his throne to brand me with his seal, and when he gets close enough... Apophis holds up his arm. Out of the sleeve shoots a blade which then retracts. Kintac smiles. Apophis removes the key for the rings from his neck Apophis: On my command, replace this... here Kintac takes it, and Apophis stands under the rings. He nods and Kintac activates the rings. Apophis is taken onto the ship... Teltak ...and is witnessed by Teal’c Teal’c: Someone has transported from the surface of Netu to Sokar’s vessel Aldwin presses a couple of pads on the console which then flash Aldwin: The weapon is ready for launch. Sokar’s ship is almost in position The pit Daniel is brought back in. Jack sits up. Marty goes over to Daniel Daniel: Sokar’s ship is in orbit. Apophis went up to meet him. I managed to get this He holds up the communicator. He hands it to Sam Jack: Nice Sam: Can Sokar’s ship pick up the transmission? Marty: The signal is coded She clicks it on Teltak Aldwin is preparing the weapon Sam: Teal’c, can you hear me? Teal’c: (to Aldwin) Wait! (Into Comm) Major Carter, it is I Sam: Thank God Aldwin finishes the prepping of the missile Teal’c: Wait! Aldwin gets out a Zat and aims it at Teal’c. The display is flashing- it’s ready to launch. He hesitates for a second, then pushes the button FX shot of the missile being launched Teltak Aldwin is resolute, Teal’c looks ready to kill him FX shot of the missile striking Netu The pit The room shakes. Dad wakes up. Distant cries in the background Jack: What the hell is that? Man: Sokar is attacking! The room shakes again. The gas vent near the trapdoor starts venting fire Sam: Teal’c, what’s going on? Teltak Aldwin lowers the Zat. Teal’c *so* wants to kill him Teal’c: You have twelve minutes until Netu is destroyed Sam: What? Why? Teal’c: I am here with the Tok’ra Aldwin. He has launched a weapon into the moon’s core which will explode, destroying Sokar’s ship which is in its orbit The pit Marty: The Tok’ra High Council must believe it is the only choice, otherwise they would not sacrifice us in this way Jack: We’re not dead yet The room shakes again. Lots of cries in the background. The gas vent shoots fire again Sam: I have an idea She, Marty and Jack go over to the vent Sam: Help me pack this. Fill in this vent. As many rocks as you can. Wedge them in real tight. They start to fill it Sokar’s ship Apophis is prostrated on the floor, and lifts his head, but stays kneeling Apophis: My time of suffering has taught me the strength of your power, my lord Sokar: Tell me the information you extracted from the intruders Apophis: I beg you to grant me the privilege of ruling Netu. Bynarr was not worthy of such honour Sokar: Tell me the location of the Tok’ra rebellion Apophis: That is only one of the many valuable things I have learnt Sokar lowers his hood, and leans forward Sokar: Why do you try my patience? Tell me, and I will grant you your wish and brand you Lord of the Underworld Apophis: The Tok’ra are based on the planet Entac Sokar sits back on his throne. He looks to the Other Guard who grabs Apophis by the shoulders Apophis: What is the meaning of this? Sokar: I recently conquered Entac. There are no Tok’ra there. Kill him. Slowly. Teltak Aldwin: We have less than nine minutes. If we stay here much longer, we risk being caught in the explosion ourselves Teal’c: I will take that risk Aldwin: Even if Martouf and your friends somehow make it to the transporter rings on Netu, Sokar’s ship is in the direct path of the matter stream Teal’c starts to walk towards Aldwin Aldwin: There is no way we can intercept them Teal’c is getting up close and personal, so Aldwin tries to raise the Zat, but Teal’c bats it away, then forces Aldwin into the back of the Teltak Aldwin: Teal’c, unhand me! Teal’c! Teal’c throws him in the back... Aldwin: Teal’c, this is suicide ...and closes the door. Aldwin goes to the door Aldwin: Teal’c! [don’t those things open from the inside too?] The pit They’ve just about filled in the hole now. The room starts to shake again Sam: Go! The vent explodes, sending everything upwards and taking out the trapdoor. My, isn’t that lucky. Sokar’s ship The Other Guard is using the cattle prod on Apophis The pit Dad is carried out as they climb out of the pit. Daniel: We’re on our way Teltak Teal’c: Timing is critical, Daniel Jackson. You must tell me precisely when you are ready Cavern They crawl their way long as the fire shoots up out of every available hole. People are screaming in the background Teltak Aldwin: Teal’c, listen carefully! In order to intercept the matter stream you must fly the cargo ship between Sokar’s ship and the planet. If we do not come to a complete stop we could miss part of the matter stream. Your friends would die. And that’s only if Sokar doesn’t blow us out of the sky Teal’c switches the power back on Bynarr’s quarters Jack: get in position! Daniel: Almost there, Teal’c Sokar’s ship Apophis is still being prodded. The Guard runs in Guard: Forgive me! The hellfires of Netu are erupting, my lord Sokar: What? Guard: The ship’s sensors indicate that the moon’s core ahs become unstable Sokar: That is impossible. I control Netu! Guard: We must move the ship Apophis takes his chance and stabs the Other Guard with the blade. The Guard tries to attack him, but Apophis blocks it, spins round, and slits his throat. Sokar stands up, and holds out his hand device. He activates his personal shield just as Apophis grabs the Guard’s staff and fires it. Apophis then runs out of the room. Sokar, ever the unhappy loser, roars [yes, roars. That’s what the CC on my DVD says] Teltak We’re getting mightily close to the mothership now Bynarr’s quarters The room is still 'shaking it all about' Jack: Marty? Marty finishes hot-wiring the rings Marty: Now! He runs to join the others Daniel: We’re ready, Teal’c The rings activate, and everyone looks up Teltak Teal’c is moving underneath the ship as the light beam activates.
