This is px7—455, their point of departure. 204 00:11:08,877 --> 00:11:11,588 And this is earth, their point of arrival. 205 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:13,190 The wormhole that brought them here 206 00:11:13,214 --> 00:11:16,551 crossed this section of space, bisecting this singularity. 207 00:11:16,843 --> 00:11:17,862 The black hole that was created 208 00:11:17,886 --> 00:11:19,929 when we destroyed the ori beachhead. 209 00:11:20,221 --> 00:11:20,680 Exactly. 210 00:11:21,014 --> 00:11:22,867 Now, I'm theorizing that as they bisected the singularity, 211 00:11:22,891 --> 00:11:27,228 subspace was ruptured, creating a rift in the space—time continuum 212 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,689 that brought that sg—I into this universe. 213 00:11:29,981 --> 00:11:31,125 But we've had teams gate in from locations 214 00:11:31,149 --> 00:11:34,319 on the other side of that black hole in our universe. 215 00:11:34,611 --> 00:11:36,362 Why weren't they affected? 216 00:11:36,654 --> 00:11:38,448 One more stupid question. 217 00:11:38,740 --> 00:11:41,618 Oh, sir, yours was fine. Mine is stupid. 218 00:11:41,910 --> 00:11:44,871 Why didn't we end up on alternate px7 when we gated through 219 00:11:45,163 --> 00:11:46,831 to check on bizarro sg—I's story? 220 00:11:47,123 --> 00:11:48,124 I can't answer that. 221 00:11:48,416 --> 00:11:50,376 As far as I know, the deviation was one—way 222 00:11:50,668 --> 00:11:52,837 and specific to that particular wormhole. 223 00:11:53,129 --> 00:11:54,631 However, just to be on the safe side, 224 00:11:54,923 --> 00:11:55,506 I would suggest that we reroute 225 00:11:55,798 --> 00:11:58,760 all gate travel around the singularity for the time being. 226 00:11:59,052 --> 00:12:02,388 Harriman: Unscheduled offworld activation. 227 00:12:07,185 --> 00:12:08,645 What do you have for me now, Walter? 228 00:12:08,937 --> 00:12:12,190 Sir, it's sg—I's idc again. 229 00:12:12,482 --> 00:12:13,918 Do you want me to send a confirmation? 230 00:12:13,942 --> 00:12:14,609 Ifanother team comes through, 231 00:12:14,901 --> 00:12:16,653 they'd just be stranded like the first one. 232 00:12:16,945 --> 00:12:19,072 Receiving radio transmission. Let's hear it. 233 00:12:19,364 --> 00:12:21,324 Mitchell: Stargate command, this is Mitchell. 234 00:12:21,616 --> 00:12:24,118 What's the holdup? We got a situation here. 235 00:12:24,410 --> 00:12:25,690 Sir, if we don't open the Iris... 236 00:12:25,954 --> 00:12:28,623 Stargate command. Do you read? 237 00:12:29,123 --> 00:12:30,708 Defense teams. 238 00:12:33,962 --> 00:12:36,089 Open the Iris. 239 00:12:52,021 --> 00:12:54,399 What the hell is going on? 240 00:13:06,869 --> 00:13:10,707 So much for this phenomenon being restricted to one worm hole. 241 00:13:10,999 --> 00:13:13,418 I may have underestimated its influence. 242 00:13:13,710 --> 00:13:14,895 It's possible the first spatial tear 243 00:13:14,919 --> 00:13:17,672 may have caused a ripple effect across several realities, 244 00:13:17,964 --> 00:13:20,717 transforming an area of their subspace into a kind of funnel 245 00:13:21,009 --> 00:13:23,720 that's redirecting their gate travel to this universe. 246 00:13:24,012 --> 00:13:26,306 Any wormhole passing close enough to the black hole 247 00:13:26,597 --> 00:13:29,934 is being drawn into the singularity and rerouted here. 248 00:13:30,226 --> 00:13:31,786 So you're telling me that we're the hub? 249 00:13:32,020 --> 00:13:33,688 A convergence point. Yes, sir. 250 00:13:33,980 --> 00:13:35,380 It might account for why gate travel 251 00:13:35,565 --> 00:13:36,845 in this universe wasn't affected. 252 00:13:37,025 --> 00:13:38,818 Might account? Colonel Mitchell. Sir. 253 00:13:39,110 --> 00:13:41,738 Inform all offworld teams to proceed to the Alpha site. 254 00:13:42,030 --> 00:13:45,742 Until further notice, gate travel to and from Stargate command 255 00:13:46,034 --> 00:13:47,274 will be suspended indefinitely. 256 00:13:47,493 --> 00:13:49,263 What if there're more teams coming in hot, sir? 257 00:13:49,287 --> 00:13:51,047 I'm willing to make the occasional exception, 258 00:13:51,122 --> 00:13:53,499 but I'm not about to turn this base 259 00:13:53,791 --> 00:13:56,794 into the grand central station of the multiverse. 260 00:13:57,086 --> 00:13:58,755 Dismissed. 261 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,262 Why is it that every team that's come through the gate so far 262 00:14:06,554 --> 00:14:08,681 has been exclusively an alternate sg—1? 263 00:14:08,973 --> 00:14:12,393 I mean, how come no alternate sg—25 or sg—3s? 264 00:14:12,685 --> 00:14:13,965 Well, sg—1 is the frontline team, 265 00:14:14,145 --> 00:14:16,040 the one most likely to get into trouble offworld, 266 00:14:16,064 --> 00:14:19,400 and, as a result, the team we'd be most likely to have to let through. 267 00:14:19,692 --> 00:14:22,070 Right. So far, we've turned back over 50 teams, 268 00:14:22,362 --> 00:14:24,155 and not all of them have been sg—1. 269 00:14:24,447 --> 00:14:27,325 Here's the really interesting part. Each team from each reality 270 00:14:27,617 --> 00:14:30,953 has dialed in from a different point of origin. No repeats. 271 00:14:31,245 --> 00:14:34,332 All originating from a corridor of space starting from earth 272 00:14:34,624 --> 00:14:36,918 and passing within a few degrees of the singularity. 273 00:14:37,210 --> 00:14:40,797 What about that superfluous energy signature? 274 00:14:41,089 --> 00:14:41,506 Has that happened again? 275 00:14:41,798 --> 00:14:44,759 No. Not since the first alternate team dialed in. 276 00:14:45,051 --> 00:14:46,803 Any idea what it was? 277 00:14:47,095 --> 00:14:47,762 I'm not sure, 278 00:14:48,054 --> 00:14:49,680 but it reminds me of the incident on... 279 00:14:49,972 --> 00:14:50,972 Carter 2: K'tau. 280 00:14:51,015 --> 00:14:54,894 In that case, we introduced an unstable, superheavy element 281 00:14:55,186 --> 00:14:56,562 into their sun's nuclear reaction. 282 00:14:56,854 --> 00:14:59,534 When the worm hole that brought us there passed directly through it. 283 00:14:59,732 --> 00:15:02,819 But in this case, the wormhole is passing through a black hole. 284 00:15:03,111 --> 00:15:06,447 So who knows what the effect would be? 285 00:15:06,739 --> 00:15:09,242 I thought we could use the help. 286 00:15:09,534 --> 00:15:10,534 (Laughing) 287 00:15:10,785 --> 00:15:13,871 Yeah.
