Move!
Yes, sir.
Set it up.
Go, go, go!
Possible c4 fracture.
Immobilize with a cervical collar
and letthe symbiote heal the damage.
Pressure dressing stat!
Airway's partially compromised.
Corpsman, priority one. Let's move!
Hey, hey!
What's that?
We were told we could bring equipment essential to our security.
That wasn't the question. Open it up
a zatarc detector.
See, that's all you had to say.
Move out.
Pierce?
Colonel.
Sg—I 2 was wiped out in the first wave, sir.
The Goa'uld knew exactly where to h it,
took us completely by surprise.
Where's my father?
He insisted on disabling the dhd at the tok'ra base
and ordered us to leave.
See to your men.
Jacob!
Is the gate secure?
If the chappa—ai is soon reactivated,
we will have the answer.
I set a charge equivalent to a tactical nuke
to detonate 10 seconds after we left.
No one's following us. No one saw the address.
You're sure about that?
I'm positive.
Stand down. Help the wounded.
What happened?
Anubis's forces have overrun our position in the risa system.
We tried dialing the sgc gate,
but the gate must have already been active.
Jonas and sg—2 were returning from p36 231
with arti facts th ey'd gathered.
I know you wanted to keep the Alpha site location secret,
but we had no alternative. We couldn't wait.
You dialed the coordinates yourself, right?
Yeah. I was careful. Nobody saw.
To whom do I owe thanks for this refuge?
Colonel Jack O'Neill, this is malek,
commander of the tok'ra base we just evacuated,
and ocker, chief of security.
Your people were most brave in aiding us.
How many made it?
Less than a quarter of our number.
I'm sorry.
This is the base of the tauri.
Why are there Jaffa?
Rebel warriors.
Jaffa who have turned against the Goa'uld.
I did not realize their ranks had grown to such a number.
Hundreds more are operating
as a fifth column among the Goa'uld.
Just like you.
Many of these Jaffa had to evacuate their rebel base several months ago.
I see.
Is that going to be a problem?
Not for us.
Good.
Arik tree—ac te kek.
"We do not surrender, even in death."
Tak mal ariktiak.
"You will not be forgotten."
(Shouting)
Nemeth kree!
Hey.
H ey!
What the hell is going on here?
This is a funeral, for crying out loud.
I asked a question of this tok'ra.
No one may speak during the ritual.
For this you guys are fighting?
I'm sure he's sorry.
I am not.
On the inside.
It does not matter.
Look, it does not matter.
Come on. A lot of people lost their lives.
Show a little respect.
They are no different than the Goa'uld.
Jaffa!
All right, come on, break it up.
Go on home. There's nothing to see here.
Go on.
There's no need to apologize on their behalf, colonel.
Apologize?
We understand the Jaffa.
Actually, I was going to remind you
that without bra'tac and Teal'c and other Jaffa,
all your little tok'ra folks would be pushing up daisies right now.
And I need not remind you
that the rebel Jaffa and the tau ri
are equally indebted to us.
How so?
We have been fighting the Goa'uld for millennia.
Yeah,
just when should we expect some progress on that?
It's been a bad day.
Let's move on.
Sir...
Several of the tok'ra have expressed concern
about the temporary quarters they've been assigned.
Explain to them the meaning of the word "temporary".
If they don't like it, they can leave.
You really want me to tell them that?
Yes.
No.
I'll do it.
Hey. How's the leg?
It's better.
One of the perks of being atok'ra.
If you say so.
Hey, what was all that crap at the funeral?
Iwouldn't read too much into it.
Why do you guys have to be so dang...
Arrogant?
Yeah, okay.
It's complicated, symbiote and host.
The blending of two personalities
does sometimes have its drawbacks.
Tell me about it.
Jack, there's no denying you had a bad experience...
But if you hadn't had a symbiote implanted—...
Please don't use thatterm, huh?
If you hadn't been blended with kanan,
you'd be dead right now.
By the way, if I hadn't become atok'ra,
I'd be dead, too.
Kanan broke one of our highest laws.
He used you.
I can tell you that even selmak was sickened by it,
andthere's no way he could have hidden those feelings from me,
but kanan did something terribly wrong
while trying to do the right thing.
You can't forgive him for that?
No.
It's a shame atrue blending never really occurred.
You might be able to understand the tok'ra a little better.
Oh, ithinki understand them just fine.
You don't like us much anymore, do you?
I like you.
I see the Jaffa differently.
Most of the tok'ra hosts come from worlds
conquered by the Goa'uld,
born into a feudal system
where their only choices were forced labor or death.
So it's the host's fault?
It's history.
For 2,000 years, every time atok'ra died at the end of a staff weapon,
a Jaffa was holding it.
We just got our asses kicked
by an army of Jaffa loyal to Anubis.
You think that helps?
No.
There's talk among the tok'ra ran ks
thatthe end is closer than we think,
and I don't mean the end of the Goa'uld,
I mean the end of us,
all of us.
The Jaffa rebellion isn't exactly rolling along
as well as could be expected, either, itake it.
No, it's not.
Then at least we have that much in common.
At first, it seemed like a routine power fluctuation
in the cycle output of the naquadah reactor,
but on closer inspection,
I discovered that both the absorption port
and its redundancy had been tampered with.
Carter, I haven't had coffee.
Sir, no one would have noticed it
if they didn't know what to look for.
The reactor would have overloaded.
Any chance this was an accident?
Not a chance.
Would not an explosion caused by such an overload
destroy an area several miles in circumference?
Yeah, it would.
Who knows about this?
Except for the guards I posted, just us.
How long would it have taken
for this overload to result in explosion?
An hour, maybe less.
Pierce, O'Neill.
No one goes within 20 yards of the gate till I'm there.
Yes, sir.
What are you considering, O'Neill?
Well, if you'd rigged a reactor to blow,
wouldn't you want to get off world before it blew?
Indeed.
I could send reinforcements.
N egative, sir.
We've got enough people here as it is.
At least let me rejoin the team.
For you, it will be an incoming wormhole from earth.
What risk could there be?
You're going to have to sitthis one out.
In fact, until we know what's going on, general,
I recommend no gate travel either way.
Understood, colonel.
I'll have sg—3 standing by just in case.
We'll report back in 24 hours.
O'Neill out.
Pierce, I wantthe guard doubled.
Yes, sir.
What is happening?
Yeah, looks like we're going to be stuck here for a while.
It is imperative that we be allowed to seek another location for our base.
Yeah, you might want to putthat on hold.
We have a situation.
There is a saboteur among us.
Our naquadah reactor almost went critical this morning.
I discovered it just in time.
And if you hadn't?
We wouldn't be having this chat.
I see.
See, this planet was chosen as our Alpha site
because its address is unknown to the Goa'uld.
And it is imperative that this base remains secret.
We will be questioning everybody.
Of course.
Starting with the tok'ra.
For what reason?
Everything was fine until you showed up.
If what you say is true, we would have perished with you.
It'd only take one.
Selmak?
We have no choice.
The zatarc detector will reveal any lie or deception.
Yeah, but a spy within either the Jaffa or tok'ra ranks
wouldn't have to be a zatarc to attempt something like this.
Any deception will be detected,
whether we are dealing with a zatarc or not.
That is when I requested to leave
and you informed me of the sabotage.
Do you know why the tok'ra base fell?
Exactly how Anubis was able to defeat our defense system
remains a mystery.
Okay, we're done.
Thank you.
No...
Thank you.
(Jacob): I'll screen the wounded,
buti doubt they could have made it from the infirmary undetected.
After that, if we still have nothing,
base personnel will have to be screened.
Okay.
And the Jaffa.
Bra'tac?
I had hoped it would not come to that.
Look, if the Jaffa won't submitto the screening
after the tok'ra already have,
we're just asking for trouble.
The very purpose of this device questions one's honor.
Or you could say confirms one's honor.
It is also of tok'ra design.
Oh, come on.
I have learned much in my 137 years.
Can you look me in the eye
and tell me you trust the tok'ra entirely?
No,
not entirely,
but enough to allow myself to be screened
along with everybody else.
I will convince the Jaffa to submit.
You have my word.
Perhaps once the tok'ra see
how big Jaffa hearts can be,
they will finally look upon us as equals.
Colonel O'Neill!
You killed ocker.
I would have, if he challenged me again.
Are you not responsible for this?
I only wish iwas.
Answer him directly.
I will not explain myself to him.
Then explain it to me.
Please.
I was across the compound.
I insistthat he be screened immediately.
Yeah.
I will not!
Carter, I want you in there.
Yes, sir.
I need to know the cause of death.
I'll get on it, sir.
You both know this, but I'm going to say it out loud anyway.
We need every bit of influence you two have
or this whole thing's going to blow up
I was alone outside the compound
eating my ration in private.
Do you know who killed ocker?
No.
Did you kill him?
No, I did not kill him.
We're finished.
Holding cell.
Yes, sir.
Master bra'tac, I did not kill him.
Go with them.
Do not attempt escape.
Deception.
He is guilty.
All we know is that he's lying about something.
What more proof do you need?
This device is not infallible.
It can give false positives.
We've seen it before.
A short while ago,
you were all willing to stake the security of the base on it.
Artok's obvious hostility towards the tok'ra
could be throwing off the readings.
His hostility is the reason ocker is dead.
What if we verify his alibi?
The colonel's right.
Maybe someone saw him where he said he was.
Both tok'ra and Jaffa
deliberately ate apart from each other.
I will not accept the word of a Jaffa in his defense.
Of course you won't,
so why don't we see what the autopsy says?
Why?
Because we don't convict people
just because some damn lightturns red.
How long will the autopsy take?
It's hard to say.
The report may offer tangible evidence
proving or disproving his guilt.
Look, he's not going anywhere.
You've got my word.
And mine as well.
Many tok'ra have died in recent days.
To lose another of our number
in a place that we had thought was refuge...
It is difficult.
I'm sure it is.
There was some bruising around the right side of his mouth,
which could be a sign
that the killer prevented him from calling out
by covering his mouth with his left hand from behind.
The trauma to the back of the neck
was done with a bladed weapon of fairly exotic design.
The blade was used to sever the spinal column of the host
between the first and second cervical vertebrae,
while simultaneously severing
the spinal column of the symbiote
between the 33rd and 34th precloacal vertebrae.
Death would have been instantaneous.
No Jaffa did this.
How do you know?
Jaffa do not kill in this fashion.
Are you suggesting that Jaffa could not be trained to do this?
I am telling you that a Jaffa would not.
Vengeance is exacted face to face, not from behind.
Face to face a Jaffa may not survive.
It is more likely a tok'ra or Goa'uld
who has committed this act.
I disagree.
(Alarm sounding)
This is different.
This was a frontal attack.
Aboutthe only similarthing
is that it was done by a bladed weapon.
The same one? Could be.
I won't know for sure until I inspectthe trauma to the internal organs.
Was the door locked?
Yes, sir.
Did you hear anything?
No, sir.
Well, it's pretty unlikely
that someone defeated the lock on the cell door,
stabbed him without a fight,
and then relocked the door as they left.
What if they attacked through the bars,
and the force of the blow
pushed him back to where he is now.
It was a frontal attack, so why are there no defensive wounds?
He'd have to be standing in front of the bars.
A Jaffa would never expose himself
to such a vulnerable position.
Unless he knew his killer
and did not fear him.
Artok is dead.
Only yesterday he helped to carry your wounded,
andthen you killed him.
Now is not the time, brother.
You know the truth, Teal'c. I do not.
Atok'ra did not kill him,
of this I am certain.
You carry a blade on your belt.
To defend myself
when the tok'ra finally come for me.
He was defenseless!
Malek!
Somebody want to...
Tell me what's going on here?
Anybody?
Why don't we put the weapons down?
Teal'c!
O'Neill!
Should we go check this out,
let these folks talk among themselves?
Footprints...
Recently made and alone.
Whoever did this fled quickly in that direction.
The footprints,
Jaffa or tok'ra?
They could be either one.
All right, let's do a head count.
All right, listen up, folks.
The good news is we can stop pointing fingers at each other,
everyone's been accounted for,
however,
that does mean that someone,
or dare I say it, something
is still floating around trying to do us in.
We will search in groups of three—...
Atok'ra, Jaffa, and tauri in each.
This thing was trying to turn us against each other.
The factthat we're onto him makes him more dangerous,
keep that in mind.
Let's move out.
O'Neill?
Go ahead, Teal'c.
We have located captain grier's search team.
They are dead.
Any tracks?
Each team member appears to have been killed separately
and dragged to this location.
Okay, what's your position?
East of the creek near the base of north cliff.
Stand by. I've got something here.
Carter,
hook up with Teal'c at his position.
Secure the area.
Yes, sir.
What happened?
I could not defend against it.
I had no choice.
Where's bra'tac?
He is dead.
Tell me why I should not kill you here.
H e was swept away.
There was nothing I could have done.
You could have pursued him.
Master bra'tac could have been saved.
I believed it more important to report what I saw.
How can we ever trust the tok'ra
if they would abandon a Jaffa in the midst of a battle?
If I had not,
iwould be dead.
Jack, a little help
Teal'c, stop.
Teal'c,
don't do this.
Bra'tac would want us to stick togeth er.
He's right, Teal'c.
Bra'tac pushed me out of the way just before the attack.
Somehow he knew
whoever it was had a personal cloaking device.
He was invisible.
Invisible?
Nirrti possesses stealth technology.
She could have come through the gate
with the tok'ra UN detected.
That would explain why there were no defensive wounds
and how Anubis was able
to defeatthe defenses of the tok'ra base.
An invisible spy could operate with impunity.
That woman continues to get on my nerves.
I doubt nirrti would be in league with Anubis.
She's a renegade.
Well, whoever it is, we're dealing with an enemy we can't see.
Without ters to counter that technology, we're helpless.
Do you have the means to generate a high frequency electromagnetic field?
I could modify the wave output of the naquadah reactor.
Within a range of 400 to 700 nanometers?
That mightjust excite the phase particles enough
to bring them into our visible light spectrum.
Carter?
Sir, the invisibility field must operate—...
Are you about to tell me that you can make the invisible guy—...
Yes, sir. That's all I need.
If you can see it, you can shoot it.
Right.
I will assist you.
Fine. Let's move out.
We'll need to bring the reactor out in the open.
Do it. I want everybody else guarding the gate.
All right, listen up
our enemy has a device
that can render himself or herself invisible.
He or she may have come through the gate
with the wounded tok'ra.
Whatever it is, they're trying to play us against each another,
and that's not going to work anymore,
because now we know it is among us.
Bra'tac is gone.
His death will have been in vain unless we trust each other
and work together to defeatthis enemy.
Do what you have to do, butthat son of a bitch
does not get through that gate.
Yes, sir.
If this creature's allowed to leave,
this base will have to be abandoned.
Yeah, I know.
It checks out. The same bladed weapon killed both of them,
probably the others, too.
A single thrust up through the symbiote,
continuing up, piercing the Jaffa's heart.
He was dead before he hitthe ground.
Nirrti's been working out.
Not nirrti,
an ashrak.
A highly trained Goa'uld assassin
of great strength and power,
most likely in the service of Anubis.
Wasn't it an ashrak
who was able penetrate security andtried to kill major Carter?
Indeed.
The ashrak succeeded in killing jolinar,
to whom major Carter was host.
That guy wasn't invisible.
While in the service of apophis,
many Jaffa were killed
in the manner Dr. Fraiser has described
while working in the naquadah mines of kawawn.
Apophis ordered the mines sealed,
and when the tunnels were opened days later,
a single ashrak was found.
Only one had killed so many.
Well, if he's that powerful,
then why didn't he just go on a killing spree?
Divide and conquer.
I wish that bra'tac were here.
Yeah, I know.
Carter...
Are we there yet?
Almost, sir.
The reactor wasn't designed
for a sustained output atthis frequency range.
Medics, we've got wounded out here.
Go to work. You okay?
Colonel. I'm sorry, sir.
Somehow it got my gdo during the firefight.
What? It was moving in and around us, sir.
At least one casualty was hit by friendly fire.
All right, re—establish a perimeter around the gate.
I'd like to take a team after it, sir.
N egative. That's what it wants.
You hold that gate. Make sure everyone has a clear line of fire. Go.
Yes, sir.
We should leave before he attempts another attack.
It took a gdo.
Nobody's going anywhere.
Colonel, you saw what he was capable—...
Yes, I did.
That's why I want all available personnel guarding that gate.
That includes tok'ra and Jaffa.
Colon el—— go help Carter.
Atrue warrior would show himself.
Patience, rak'nor.
As bra'tac would have said,
a Jaffa has many senses with which to fight.
Okay, Sam?
Malek, how close are we?
200 nanometers.
That's still ultraviolet.
We need to reach at least 400 to be in visual range.
If we all perish,
there'll be no one left to carry on the fight.
The Jaffa will fight side—by—side with the tok'ra,
and if need be, die side—by—side.
Malek, what's that read?
420 nanometers.
Sir, we're there.
Powering up 50%.
Anybody else feel that?
The tingling sensation is caused by the energy field.
It's not causing any physical damage,
so there's nothing to worry about, sir.
No, I like it. It's good.
The power setting may be insufficient
to counteract the cloaking device,
but increasing it will substantially reduce
our ability to sustain the field.
Crank it up
yes, sir. Powering up 100%.
Hold your positions!
Carter, are we still in business?
Yes, sir. I just need to bring it back on—line.
Watch those gaps.
Rak'nor!
Everybody down!
Master bra'tac!
Pierce, stand down. We've got him.
Yes, sir.
You're very lucky to be alive.
Indeed.
This ashrak left me for dead.
I was unable to move
and do not know how long iwas unconscious.
My symbiote sustained me
and I returned as soon as I could.
Not bad.
I owe you my life twice over.
I on ly hope that one day I'm given the chance to repay that debt.
Forgive me.
This single blade did what we could not.
It has brought us together.
This blade has spilled the blood of Jaffa...
Of the tok'ra,
and of the tauri.
By the hand of our common enemy,
it has made us brothers.
Together we have ensured
it will never spill our blood again.
