Previously on Stargate sg—1
We have a time machine.
We can go back and getthe zpm.
We don't know where it is now,
but we do know where it was—...
Giza, 3000 bc.
That's katep, and his brother, salatis.
Nice.
All right, we got a little problem here.
We alter this timeline
and the future is already different.
We brought you here
because of what has been recorded
upon the tape inside that camera.
I'm part of a team called sg—I
and we have just traveled back in time
5,000 years.
Look at this as a way to change everything.
We're supposed to be ateam.
We save the world.
It was exactly where you said it would be.
If anybody should be going, it's us.
Look, the only reason
you have this Stargate is because of us.
I'm aware of that.
I'm a linguist.
By all accounts, your team may need one.
And what if something goes wrong
with the gate on the other end?
Neither of you have had any military training whatsoever.
Have either one of you even ever fired a weapon of any kind?
Unless you count launching a rocket...
Look, I'm sorry.
Your expertise may be needed
some time in the future, but for now—...
Well, can I ask who is going?
I don't understand.
What made you change you mind?
Hi, Jack.
That's colonel, major.
You're retired.
I was.
I take it you two know each other.
Yeah, we served together a long time ago.
Oh, it wasn't that long ago.
Major kawalski has been assigned to assemble the team
that will go th rough the Stargate.
And you knew I couldn't say no if he was involved.
Oh, come on, colonel.
You don't owe me anything.
Admit it, you've gotto be a little curious—...
Traveling to a different planet through a wormhole.
I know I am.
Sir, with all due respect,
what are they still doing here?
I'm not sure.
Airman, please escort—...
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait.
We were all on thattape.
That tape had nothing to do with it.
Jack O'Neill is one of the best
I've ever served with.
You may not care thatthis timeline is a direct result
of tampering with the past,
but you have to acknowledge that the tape said
the planet you're going to is enemy territory—...
An enemythat is way more advanced
than us, technologically.
What's your point?
You're literally walking into
a totally alien situation,
outmanned and outgunned.
Do we have a choice?
We've only been able to activate the interior lights
and the dialing computer,
but, according to the tape,
you have the gene that can make this ship fly.
And travel through time.
Well, presumably, you don't have to do that
if you don't want to.
Hmm.
What do I do?
Sit down.
Now what?
You're supposed to have the ability to fly this thing.
With your mind.
Try notto think about the past.
Or the future.
Oh, you so have to let us go with you.
Please.
Putthose on.
How come we have to wear these and you don't?
Okay, people,
let me remindyou—...
This mission is recon only.
Do not engage the enemy.
I'm allowing the use of this ship
because of the obvious
tactical advantage it provides you.
Under no circumstances
is itto be used to travel through time.
Understood?
Yes, sir.
Never in my life
would I have imagined giving that order.
Are you absolutely certain about them, colonel?
No, sir.
Good luck and godspeed.
All aboard.
Hey.
Watch this.
By the way, you do have the address to get us
back home, correct?
Yeah.
Good. Dial it up.
I give this no more than a 50—50 chance of working.
According to the tape,
it worked for eight years.
Wow.
Well, I'm certainly glad it's not me
going through that, uh, thing.
Any idea what to expect?
Not really.
According to the tape, we're going to be demolecularized,
transmitted over 2,000 light years through subspace,
and then, uh, rematerialized on the other side.
I did not need to know that.
Okay.
Gateship one,
you're go for launch.
"Gateship?"
Well, it's a ship that goes through the gate, so...
What?
It's a ship that goes through the gate. It's a gateship
well, I thought it was clever.
Well, that was cool.
I didn't feel anything.
Doesn't even feel like we're pulling any gs.
This thing must have inertial dampeners.
See any enemy troops when we came through?
No, butthat doesn't mean we weren't detected.
Is that a city?
I'm going to set her down in those trees.
Wait a minute.
I thought the reason why we broughtthe ship
was so we didn't have to walk.
You can't just fly into an alien city.
The mission is stealth recon,
meaning undetected.
Meaning "shut up."
Sorry.
Donner, Mansfield, guard the ship.
Bosworth, you're with us.
Come on. Move out.
Why did we have to park so far away?
Seriously, why did we bring them?
Oh, I don't know.
I guess I had a gut feeling.
Like Peru?
All right, that didn't work out so well.
Or Sierra Leone? Uganda?
All right, look.
Maybe the better question here is,
why'd you invite me on this dog and pony?
Well, let's just say
I prefer my gut instinct over yours.
Yeah.
What's with the...
Aw, sh...
Hello? Anybody there?
We're all here.
Where are we?
It looks like a prison cell.
Anybody seen my glasses?
Ithinkthey must have taken them.
Why would they do that?
Teal'c.
From the tape?
If you know my name,
then you know enough to fear me.
Look, I know this might sound a little crazy, but—...
Who are you?
Hi. Uh—...
Uh...
We're—— we're from the tau ri.
We call it earth.
See, we foundthis tape, um, from the past.
You see, apparently, we're part of a team.
Um, the four of us, not the two of them.
We're called sg—I.
Now, we used this time device
to go back in the past,
and we screwed up the past and changed the future.
See, you're not supposed to be
still apophis' first prime.
The Jaffa are supposed to be free,
and we know that you think the Goa'uld are false gods.
That wasn't n ecessary.
Speak of such blasphemy again
and I will kill you where you stand.
Look, I know this is a lot
to th row at you all at one time,
and you gotto put up a little show for the boys here,
but the fact is...
We know th e truth.
See, it's all on the tape.
You have to see it.
It's in the camera
that, um, you took from the bag that you took from me.
If you bring itto me, I can show you how it works, and we can—...
Or we could—...
We could go and see it over at, uh...
Wherever you want to go.
Kneel before your god.
Kneeling, huh?
Who are you?
My name's Daniel Jackson.
If you give me back my eyeglasses,
I could actually see y—...
He claims he is of the tauri.
You weren't supposed to tell him that.
The tauri have no chapp'ai.
Oh, sorry. I guess I was wrong.
I'm sure your information is correct,
and, in fact, I'm usually ouite wrong,
ouite unreliable, actually.
To be honest with you, I'm insane.
Speak!
Bring him.
Ooh. Aah!
Ithinkthere is much you can tell me.
Well, if you want to know
about the early settlers of mesopotamia,
I am somewhat of an expert.
It's been over an hour.
Maybe you shouldn't have said anything.
All I said was,
"this is going to sound a little crazy..."
While there are obvious similarities,
our timeline is different
from the one in which Teal'c came to believe
that the Goa'uld were false gods.
Are you saying this guy might notturn?
It's possible.
And you're telling me this now?
This one is strong.
Leave us.
You will tell me all that you know.
Aah!
What's going on?
Show me.
Um, Teal'c, you should say something.
The Jaffa are free.
False god that he is, apophis is long dead.
A new medicine, tretonin, has liberated us
from our dependence upon symbiotes.
The Jaffa have risen up
as brothers and sisters
and defeated the Goa'uld.
Whattrickery is this?
It's not a trick.
You have a son,
rya'c,
who is now married and a strong leader
among the newly formed Jaffa nation.
If all these things have not come to pass,
you must believe thatthe present in which you now live
exists only because the past has been mistakenly altered.
It must be restored.
Please,
you have to help us.
The reason we came here was to get you
so we could go back in time and fixthings.
That's not true.
We just want to get out of here,
but if you can help us,
we'll do our best to help you.
I cannot free you.
What about our weapons, our vests,
can you get us those?
Easy. Easy!
Get outta here.
Pissants.
Hey. I didn't tell them anything.
Good for you. How are you feeling?
Not so good, really.
Sorry.
Maybe this will make you feel better.
Ah, ah, ah.
How'd you...
Teal'c.
He brought us the camera. I showed him the tape.
I don'tthink he can be trusted.
He gave us our weapons back. That's a good start.
He's going to meet us on the way back to the ship.
Safety off, point and shoot.
Not at me.
I don't really like guns.
Neither do I.
How do you feel about explosives?
Those I like a little better.
Cover.
Let's go.
Airman, this is O'Neill.
We were starting to get worried.
We're on our way. E.T.A., 10 minutes.
We've got to get going here.
We've got a whole battalion on our ass.
What the hell was that?
Shoot him, Jack.
Let's shoot him and getthe hell out of here.
Why'd you do that?
He was a Goa'uld.
Apophis implanted him with a symbiote
in order to gain access to the knowledge in his mind.
How do you know?
I could sense it.
Your friend did not give in to torture.
He's lying.
Why would he lie, kawalski?
If he wanted us all dead,
why aren't we surrounded by Jaffa right now?
We will be in a few seconds
if we don't getthe hell out of here now,
and I'm not taking him with us.
Apophis has ordered a fleet of hatak vessels to the tauri.
He's sending ships to earth?
The symbiote implanted within Daniel Jackson
was a spy intended to accompany you.
Apophis now knows what Daniel Jackson knew.
He knows that you came in a ship
he knows that the tau ri is athreat.
Howthe hell do we know you're not a spy?
His eyes glowed.
He's dead.
Go, go!
Kawalski!
Go! Start it up
Oh!
Kawalski's been hit!
Go.
Are you injured?
No.
I—I've just never seen anyone killed before.
Daniel and kawalski...
Oh, my god. You've been shot.
It will heal.
All right, we've got some problems here.
Gliders.
I can't shake them, either.
The gate will be well guarded.
You know something?
I don'tthink we're going to make it to the gate.
There is a way out.
Was there a Stargate on this planet 5,000 years ago?
I believe so.
Ithinkyou did it.
What has he done?
Ithinkwe just traveled back in time.
Check it out. Dial earth.
Well, this is definitely ancient Egypt.
Those hatak vessels bore the Mark of ra.
He ruled on earth during this period.
It is likely we were detected exiting the chappa'ai.
Well, no ships on our tail...
But I think we'll skedaddle anyway.
You saying you're on board
with trying to fix the past?
Well, we did kind of screw up our timeline, didn'twe?
Well, the only way to stop the invasion on earth
is to make sure that it never happens.
Yeah.
Remind me how we do that again.
All right. Here's the plan.
We make contact with the locals.
And then?
That's all I've got so far.
Any idea what time it is exactly?
3:00.
Sorry, I kind of meant what year.
Well, you and Daniel said
there was some kind of a failed rebellion.
In 2995 bc.
B.c.?
Colonel. Kidding,
and call me Jack, will you?
Hey.
It's all right. Folks, we come in peace.
Nothing to be afraid of.
I doubt they speak English.
Hello.
He does.
Yes. I am katep.
I am jack—— O'Neill.
Colonel Carter, and Teal'c.
How'd you know—— Please come with me.
Ra's patrols come through here often.
They must not see you. Especially you.
Please, come.
Please.
How do you know who we are?
This is notthe firsttime we have met.
You knew the other sg—I team.
Five years ago, you came.
You were witness to the death of my brother
at the hands of ra.
After you were trapped here,
we planned an uprising together.
So much for causality.
Ra is still here.
We have seen his ship
our first attempt at gathering forces for the rebellion
did not go well.
We had to expose ourselves
to those who proved still loyal to ra.
You were captured and executed
long before the plan could be finished.
Really?
All of us?
All but one.
Well, this can't be a good sign.
Why's that?
Where am I?
Ancient Egypt.
No, I mean the me from yourtimeline.
I killed you.
Why?
You were a Goa'uld spy.
A good reason.
It was horrible. Yeah, I'm sure.
Why are you here?
Yes, excellent question.
You don't know?
Well, ithoughti did there, for a while,
and then I realized I didn't.
Well, I know why I'm here.
Good. Let's start there.
We came back in time to get a zpm.
Right.
It was buried with the tape.
Why is it so important?
Ithinkyou were about to explain it,
but the batteries on the camera ran out.
Long story. Why don't you take a seat?
Basically, we gottrapped here
because you didn't want to affect the timeline,
but, ultimately, you and you
couldn't stand the idea of living out the rest of your lives
under ra's rule without doing anything.
We remembered there was a rebellion here on earth.
That's how the gate got buried in the first place.
So, we figured,
what difference does it make if we're involved or not.
Unfortunately, we never got a chance to execute the plan.
We heard.
Yes, we tried to do too much too fast.
Since then, katep and I have been
slowly building up an underground movement.
I can only assume things don't go well,
because, if you're here,
you saw the tape, and the future still needs fixing.
Something like that.
Only we didn't just see the tape,
we saw the tablet.
What tablet?
Oh, the one you haven't written yet
and put where the Stargate was supposed to be buried.
Supposed to be?
In ourtimeline,
the rebellion that you've planned actually works.
Ra ends up leaving, and earth is freed,
but ra takes the Stargate with him.
Okay, that's a problem.
Yes, the gate is never found at giza,
and none of us join the Stargate program,
but you left a tablet
in an obscure Egyptian dialect
telling us the date of the rebellion
and where to find the second Stargate—...
In Antarctica.
Good for me.
So you're here to make sure ra doesn't take this Stargate.
It's a plan.
Jaffa.
We must hide.
Where?
In here.
Sweet.
Kree, lok nel.
We've got secret stores of weapons like this
in several positions throughoutthe region.
How many troops?
Uh, a couple of thousand,
but that's not really the issue.
According to you, my own account of history says we win the revolt.
We just need to make sure that the gate stays here and gets buried.
Which means we have to steal it and hide it from ra.
But it's out in the open, close to his ship
holding such a position against a hatak
would be virtually impossible,
even for a short period of time.
Also, the gate is kind of heavy.
Well, we also have a ship.
Yes, but, you see,
the ship fits in the gate, notthe other way around.
There has to be a way that we can cable the gate to the ship,
fly it out.
Yeah, but we've still got to get close to it without being detected.
Well, that's easy.
The ship has a cloaking device.
Makes it invisible.
You're telling me this now?
I was sure I mentioned it on the tape.
If we were able to time our approach
to coordinate with the uprising,
we may yet have a chance.
We'll need to test the cloak.
We took an awful lot of damage coming out of chulak.
Because we didn't know about the damn cloak.
I was sure I mentioned it on the tape.
They are gone.
You ever wonder whatyour life is going to be like
in the future?
It won't really be my life, will it?
No, but still.
I mean, I've lived such a small
and unimportant existence.
I can't ever imagine being a hero who saves the planet.
Well, we do have atime machine.
We could go check it out.
No way. We have already screwed up enough.
Once we're done with the gate,
we need to destroy the ship.
Seriously? Absolutely.
You mean we have to stay here?
Iwonder if the future me has a boyfriend.
So what do I do?
Um...
Try thinking invisible.
Okay.
How do we know if it's working?
Nope!
Your strategy is good...
But it does not work well as a distraction
on our plan to steal the chappa'ai.
Wait a minute. We know this plan works.
If we alter it... we may fail.
With this plan, the uprising succeeds, and ra leaves.
And ra takes the chappa'ai.
If we are to be successful
in keeping ra from taking the chappa'ai,
we must focus the efforts of the rebellion
on distracting him from it.
Trust me.
How's it going?
I've never seen this kind of technology before.
Hey, you're supposed to be a genius.
That's why I brought you along.
I'm working on it.
Ithinkthe power relay was overloaded.
I may be able to reroute the circuit to the control interface.
What?
It's just a little weird hearing that kind of stuff come out of someone so...
So what?
H ot.
Really?
Yeah.
Wow. Um...
It's just, you...
You're notthe kind of guy that I usually attract.
No?
No.
God. Wow.
This is kind of awkward.
Yeah, it's getting there.
I'm kind of attracted to Daniel.
What?
Really?
Sorry.
No, that's okay. No—— no problem there.
It's just, you know,
first impressions, I kind of thought he was...
Never mind.
Carter.
How's it going in there?
I think I'm almostthere.
That's good.
We're about to have some company.
They have a patrol on its way here.
Try it.
Nothing's happening.
Hey, guys, we've got a little problem here.
Carter, forget it. I'm just going to take off.
God...
Now that's not working.
Oh, boy.
Try the cloak now.
Did it work?
Apparently.
What?
Go, go, go, go.
Get down.
Whoa.
This could be a problem.
You think?
If they penetrate the hull and hitthe engines,
the energy blasts could feed back into the power—...
Carter!
We could explode.
Daniel, Teal'c.
We're almost there.
Oh, boy.
This doesn't look good.
Indeed.
You know, it's quite ironic.
This whole thing started because Sam didn't want to
take the jumper back from the Jaffa patrol.
Look,
if we don't make it...
Wait a minute.
You said you liked Daniel.
I lied.
I just wanted to get to know you better.
See, I'm usually Avery cautious person,
and itendto thinkthings—...
Jaffa!
Hear me.
Ra is not a god.
You can live free.
Ka kek, sholva!
I don'tthink he bought it.
Relinouish your weapons and surrender.
Kal tek Trey lo tonak.
Yeah, I thought you'd say that.
Shal tek!
Sam, Jack, it's all clear.
You can come out now.
In a minute.
I can fix that.
Uh, Jack, you should say something.
Um, college football is played on Saturdays,
pro on sundays,
and there are no fish in my pond, at all,
where I fish.
I think that covers it for me.
Is that correct?
If it is, we don't do anything?
Apparently nothing we did
affected the timeline.
But we didn't do anything.
Not yet.
Apparently we were going to,
two weeks from now, but now we don't have to.
Excellent.
That's it. I like it.
Okay, I'm going to getthis up to the lab for analysis.
No!
I'll take it.
There's awhole room full of geeks up there
just dying to get their hands on this.
You've got packing to do.
This is great.
I told you.
I can't believe we didn't do it years ago.
Yes, well, let's not dwell.
Didn'tthattape say there were no fish in your pond?
Close enough.
