Stargate Sg-1 (S1E21) - Within the Serpent's Grasp
SG-1 escapes through the Stargate before it is shut down, and learns that Daniel's alternate reality vision is true: Apophis is moving to attack Earth from above. The team must stop Apophis and his son, Klorel, who inhabits the body of their friend Skaara
Transcript
00:00I never anticipated how much paperwork is involved in shutting down a company like this.
00:30Not exactly the last brave act I wanted to do before retiring.
00:34So you're still just going to throw it in, huh?
00:37Well, I was a month away from retirement before we started the SGC.
00:41The only thing that kept me here was...
00:44Well, let's face it, it was a pretty wild ride.
00:47Yes. Personally, I don't think we should be getting off that ride just yet.
00:51Colonel, we've been through this. I agree with you. But we have our orders.
00:55They're ill-conceived.
00:56I agree. But their order's just the same, and I, for one, follow orders.
01:00Even though we are the only line of defense protecting this planet?
01:06I know that.
01:08I know you know that, sir.
01:11You're still just going to chuck it, huh?
01:15You don't think I tried everything to prevent this shutdown?
01:18I went back to Senator Kinsey twice.
01:21The second time, he had me force-of-mortem him.
01:23I went back to Senator Kinsey twice.
01:25The second time, he had me forcibly removed from his office.
01:28I went to the Secretary of Defense, the Joint Chiefs.
01:31Hell, I finally called the President himself.
01:33What did he say?
01:35He said that to override the Senate Committee on this one would be political suicide for him.
01:42It's over, Jack.
01:44No extensions, no reversals, no new hearings.
01:47The Stargate will be buried, literally and figuratively.
01:54I'm sorry.
02:08Hammond's given up.
02:10They're going to bury the gate day after tomorrow.
02:17Then I must return through the Stargate as soon as possible.
02:20Yes, we all should go through the gate as soon as possible.
02:23To where?
02:24To the coordinates I got in the other reality.
02:25Daniel, damn it.
02:26Jack, it was real.
02:29Okay, even if it was, how do we know that that address correlates with this reality?
02:33Well, there's only one way to find out, isn't there?
02:35We should enter the coordinates and attempt to open the gate.
02:40Okay, hold on.
02:42Has anyone considered that we would be in gross violation of orders?
02:46Sir, we would be court-martialed the second we got back.
02:49If.
02:51If we got back.
02:52Jack, if we don't go through, what I saw in the other reality could happen here.
02:55This whole planet could be wiped out.
03:01Now, in the other reality, by the time I left, Sarah was dead.
03:04Carter, your whole family was dead.
03:06Hell, I was dead. Everyone was dead.
03:07Daniel, I got it.
03:09Okay, well, don't you think we should see if we can stop the same slaughter from happening here?
03:15Let me ask you something, Jack.
03:17If we don't go through now and the ghoul do attack later,
03:20how are you going to feel?
03:22How are just the four of us going to stop the attack anyway, even if we do go through?
03:26Well, we'd have a lot better chance now than we would trying to stop an overwhelming onslaught later.
03:30Trust me, I have seen it.
03:32If the coordinates are for a Goa'uld world which is not on the Abydos cartouche,
03:36the Goa'uld will most likely not expect us.
03:39I believe a medical attack could be successful.
03:42Surgical attack, Teal'c.
03:44It's called a surgical attack and I'd feel like an idiot.
03:47Sir?
03:49I was answering Daniel's question.
03:52If we don't do something now and they do attack later, I'd feel like an idiot.
04:06We go.
04:10I too will go.
04:18It's not an order, Captain.
04:20I understand that, Colonel. Thank you.
04:23I'm going.
04:27Attention all personnel.
04:29Unauthorized Stargate activation.
04:31Carter, close the blast doors and corridors. Alpha and Charlie, disable.
04:35I need an authorized officer's security card to disable.
04:38Here you go.
04:48Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
05:03It's on security lockout, sir.
05:05Get it open, Major. Now.
05:07Try going around through corridor C.
05:09Yes, sir.
05:11Move up. Corridor C.
05:13All right. Malk's on its way.
05:14Should reach its destination in three, two, one.
05:23What happened? Lose signal?
05:25No, sir. We are receiving video.
05:27Point of arrival is dark. Switching to infrared.
05:35Looks ancient Egyptian.
05:37Possibly. Go hold.
05:40No signs of life in the immediate vicinity of the probe.
05:42Security breached.
05:44They just got corridor C9 open.
05:46All right. Let's go.
06:12All right.
06:42All right.
07:12All right.
07:42Dead.
07:44Send back the mail.
07:47Doesn't look like there are any doors or windows.
07:50Many Goa'uld facilities disguise doorways within their structure.
08:01Teal, what are these things?
08:04Transport containers. Much like your shipping crates.
08:07So they're shipping something through the gate?
08:09Or receiving.
08:11Let's have a look inside, shall we?
08:35Cool.
08:37What are these things?
08:41This is a Goa'uld zatnyakatel.
08:44A weapon using a different form of energy.
08:46Less powerful than that of a staff weapon.
08:48Less destructive, but still quite deadly.
08:51Sweet. Pass him on.
08:55What did you call it?
08:57Zatnyakatel.
08:59Right.
09:01Let's call it a zat gun, huh?
09:04How do you fire it?
09:06One need only squeeze it here to fire.
09:08The Goa'uld will take great pleasure in discharging the weapon only once on a subject,
09:12causing him great pain.
09:14Disabling it, but not killing him.
09:16A second shot will kill most subjects.
09:19Nice.
09:22What the hell's that?
09:24What's happening, Teal?
09:26I am unsure.
09:28Everybody okay?
09:30Yeah, what was that?
09:33It was like some kind of weird planetary shift.
09:36We should dive home immediately.
09:38Do it, Daniel.
09:43What the hell was that?
09:45I don't know.
09:47I don't know.
09:49I don't know.
09:51I don't know.
09:53I don't know.
09:55I don't know.
09:58I don't know.
10:06Daniel?
10:08What? I dialed home just like I did a minute ago,
10:10just like I've done a million times before.
10:12Well, do it again.
10:20Uh-oh.
10:27Uh-oh.
10:58Uh-oh.
11:00Uh-oh.
11:02Uh-oh.
11:04Uh-oh.
11:06Uh-oh.
11:08Uh-oh.
11:10Uh-oh.
11:12Uh-oh.
11:14Uh-oh.
11:16Uh-oh.
11:18Uh-oh.
11:20Uh-oh.
11:22Uh-oh.
11:24Uh-oh.
11:25Uh-oh.
11:27Uh-oh.
11:29Uh-oh.
11:31Uh-oh.
11:33Uh-oh.
11:35Uh-oh.
11:37Uh-oh.
11:38Uh-oh.
11:40Uh-oh.
11:41Uh-oh.
11:44Uh-oh.
11:46I always get a happy, tingly feeling when I see those guys.
11:55Chilk, what is this?
12:11It is a Goa'uld long-range visual communication device.
12:15Somewhat like your television, only much further advanced.
12:19Think you'd get showtime?
12:25Can you open that door?
12:26Now that I know its location, I believe I can.
13:05Sir, we've confirmed that it was SG-1.
13:30It went to the coordinates that Dr. Jackson brought back with him from that other place.
13:35What he saw was indeed real.
13:36That's the origination point of the Goa'uld military attack on Earth.
13:38Pretty hostile place to go, wouldn't it, sir?
13:40You want SG-2 to go get them, bring them back, sir?
13:44You'd only be bringing them back for courts, Marshal.
13:48Permission to speak freely, sir?
13:49Go ahead.
13:50Sir, Colonel O'Neill saved my butt more than once.
13:52I'd like to go in and back him up.
13:53I can't send your unit in.
13:55My men and I are willing to take the risk, sir.
13:59I'll take that under advisement, Major.
14:29Sarcophagus.
14:35Oh, great.
14:46More snakes.
14:57Oh, great. More snake heads.
15:01Teal'c, any idea which one's in here?
15:06Teal'c?
15:09We're not on a planet, are we?
15:11That is correct.
15:14It appears we were aboard a Goa'uld transport vessel.
15:18And that jolt was...?
15:20Hyper-launch.
15:27Oh, my God.
15:39You'll proceed much like SG-1 did.
15:41We'll send them out through first. If it's clear, you'll go through immediately.
15:44Yes, sir.
15:45I'd like to re-emphasize, Major, that officially your primary mission is to bring back SG-1 for court-martial.
15:50Yes, sir.
15:52Major, bring them back alive and well.
15:55That's my plan, sir.
15:57Captain?
16:03We'll not lock.
16:05What happened, Sergeant?
16:07I'm sorry, sir. I don't know.
16:09Well, find out.
16:17Teal'c, why didn't you tell us we were on a ship?
16:22I was not sure. I have never been aboard a Goa'uld vessel such as this.
16:26Most accelerate very differently.
16:29Most do not contain stargates.
16:35Teal'c!
16:37Hey!
16:39How you doing?
16:45Seen a bathroom around here?
16:56I'm sorry.
17:09Okay.
17:11One shot hurts him. Two shots kill him. The third shot...
17:14Disintegrates him.
17:16Oh, great.
17:18You didn't feel this was worthy of mention, I take it.
17:21The blast spread across this area like there was glass here.
17:25This is a force field of some sort.
17:27That is correct.
17:28There is no transparent material capable of withstanding this velocity.
17:31Or temporal displacement.
17:33We're traveling faster than light, right?
17:35That is correct.
17:37So the ship must have been in orbit around a planet when we gated here.
17:40Then it launched or left orbit, which would explain why we can't gate home.
17:44The point of origin isn't valid anymore.
17:46Right.
17:48The point of origin isn't valid anymore.
17:50Right.
17:51I suggest the two of you figure out how to get us back home.
17:54Sir, the only way to do that would be to turn this thing around and go back to where we started.
17:57Right. I'll just go tell the pilot.
18:00Teal'c.
18:02You know how to fly one of these things?
18:04Of this I am unsure.
18:06It appears to be of a new technology.
18:08So, you couldn't turn this tub around, I take it.
18:10I am qualified only to pilot the Goa'uld death gliders.
18:18I suggest we relocate to another chamber as soon as possible.
18:21The Royal Sarcophagi are already left unattended for long.
18:48Goa'uld death gliders
18:52Goa'uld death gliders
19:16Jack?
19:19What's happening?
19:22Goa'uld death gliders
19:27We're on an attack ship headed to Earth.
19:30Okay.
19:32Well, we've got some problems, then.
19:34Teal'c, how fast can the ship go?
19:36A Goa'uld Hothok vessel could travel at ten times the speed of light.
19:40Okay. So, if we are heading to Earth, then we have a long time.
19:44Based on what?
19:45Based on the coordinates of the planet we gated to.
19:47We didn't gate to a planet. We gated to a ship.
19:49That ship had to have been in orbit around or on the surface of a planet
19:52in order for those gate coordinates to work.
19:55So, based on the location of those coordinates,
19:57even if we were traveling at ten times the speed of light,
19:59it would take at least a year to get to Earth.
20:01Probably more.
20:10They're being summoned to some sort of gathering.
20:20Okay. Let's go.
20:23Wait a minute.
20:25Go where?
20:26Wherever they're going.
21:19Jaffa.
21:24Jell'Hol, Jaffa.
21:29The end of a dark moment in Goa'uld history approaches.
21:33Soon we will wipe out the scourge that plagues us.
21:38I will rejoin you as we come out of the shadows.
21:43Until then, you are to follow all orders of my son,
21:47as if they were my own.
21:49Jaffa.
21:55Bow down now.
21:57And show your reverence for my son.
22:04The mighty warrior,
22:06Corell.
22:08Jell'Hol, Jaffa.
22:19Kill
22:21Apophis.
22:23Renek.
22:26Corell.
22:29Renek Corell.
22:49He called him his son.
22:51That's sick.
22:52Not exactly a chip off the old block.
22:54The Goa'uld inside Skara is probably the son of the one inside Apophis.
22:57Well, thank you, Daniel. That's encouraging.
22:59I'm just trying to help.
23:01O'Neil, what is our plan of attack?
23:03We're going to split up.
23:04Carter, you and Daniel start planting C4 all over this ship.
23:07And what are you and Teal going to do?
23:10We're going to try and grab Skara.
23:12Sir, are you sure?
23:14It would be like trying to take a plane.
23:17Sir, are you sure?
23:18It would be like trying to take Apophis.
23:20They do not know we are aboard.
23:22There would be little reason to keep them under heavy guard.
23:24Okay, but with respect, sir, I think you're making an emotional decision here.
23:28Maybe.
23:30But it's also the best strategic decision.
23:32Is it?
23:33Jack has a point.
23:34If we can capture, maybe we can get through to the old Skara.
23:37Kendra said that she could fight past her Goa'uld when it was still inside of her.
23:42Let's go.
23:43Sir.
23:44Contingency plan.
23:46C4.
24:17Move!
24:20Move!
24:24Move!
24:26Move!
24:28Move!
24:30Move!
24:43Turn off the port.
24:44We're not.
24:47Okay.
24:49You dare to do this to Glorau?
24:52You will die a painful death.
24:54Yeah, yeah, whatever.
24:56There's a raised hieroglyphic on the wall next to the door.
24:58It resembles a coiled serpent.
25:00Push it and burn it.
25:07Stand aside.
25:17We will not be able to access this room for some time.
25:24Hey, Skara.
25:27Long time no see.
25:28We will not be able to access this room for some time.
25:35Hey, Skara.
25:38Long time no see.
25:58All right.
26:00Those things have to be fueled by something, and fuel is usually combustible, so...
26:05So if we blow up one, we'll probably start a chain reaction.
26:10Right.
26:28Okay.
26:42Come on, Skara.
26:44Think.
26:46Try to remember me. I'm Jack O'Neil. This is Teal'c.
26:50Ah, Teal'c, the traitor.
26:52I take great pleasure in delivering his head to my father.
26:54He's not your father.
26:56He is my father.
26:58He succeeded the Queen Mother.
27:00He chose the host in which I will live out eternity.
27:03Apophis gave me life.
27:05Alright, I'm not talking to that thing in your head.
27:09I'm talking to Skara.
27:12Nothing of the host survives.
27:14That's bullshit.
27:18Now let him talk to me.
27:21Your friend had a feeble mind.
27:24It suffered greatly and gave in easily.
27:28Ha, ha, ha.
27:40Come on, Skara. Look at me.
27:43Try.
27:47Perhaps I will not kill you.
27:50Perhaps you will make a good host yourself.
27:54Alright, promise me this thing won't kill him.
27:56Two shots will. One shot will only cause him great pain.
27:59So here's the deal.
28:01Let him out, let him talk to me, or you get the whole load.
28:05You will only hurt your friend.
28:09He's a tough kid.
28:11Your friend is too afraid to come forward.
28:14He enjoys my protection.
28:16He really does not wish to speak with you.
28:19Is that right?
28:22Let him go, Teal'c.
28:25Let him go.
28:33Skara! Daniel!
28:37Skara.
28:40Are you there?
28:42Vanir!
28:46I know, kid. I'm sorry.
28:50Vanir, are you still my friend?
28:55Yes, I am.
28:58Can you forgive me for what we are about to do?
29:05What are you about to do?
29:07Skara. Skara, what are you about to do?
29:11Please forgive us.
29:13Hang in there, kid. Come on, hang on.
29:15What are you about to do?
29:17Drop a knock, Klingon!
29:19Help!
29:23Don't do it!
29:27Release Klorel. Now.
29:39Come on, Skara. Help us.
29:43Release him.
29:45Or we will kill the human.
29:48If you kill the human, I will kill Klorel.
29:51And the host in which he resides.
30:12I will kill him.
30:25Let's open up.
30:29The traitor and his recruiter.
30:34My father will be pleased.
30:38An aqueduct on the gate will magnify the explosion.
30:42I'm just hoping they can't see us through this thing.
31:08Shintel, Klorel.
31:12Father, I wish to present you with a great gift.
31:17The traitor, Tirk.
31:21And I present the human that recruited him.
31:29Hey, Pops.
31:30Silence!
31:32Hey, Pops.
31:33Silence!
31:36Klorel, where did they come from?
31:38If you don't know, we found them after departure.
31:41How many more came with you?
31:43Thousands. We brought a whole army.
31:47I assure you, father, there could be no more.
31:51You have made me proud, my son.
31:55Do you wish that I keep them until our rejoining?
31:58No.
32:00Tirk must suffer the most painful death a Jaffa can know.
32:05Removal of his printer.
32:08Let his new master watch him suffer and die.
32:11What about the human?
32:13You may choose his method of death.
32:15But do it soon.
32:17It is almost time for Remarque.
32:19Yes, father.
32:21I look forward to seeing you at our destination.
32:25Let's go.
32:30Let's go.
32:49Asgard.
32:51Don't let this happen.
33:01Don't let him do this.
33:07Nenne.
33:12Take them to the Peltak.
33:31Peltak.
33:40Okay, Damien. We're going to go after them.
33:43Wait a minute. When are we going to blow this ship?
33:45We'll detonate only as a last resort.
33:49Listen, I want to save them as much as you do,
33:51but if we get captured or killed, there's going to be nobody left to blow this ship before it gets to Earth.
33:55That's why I'm setting a timer.
33:57If we don't deactivate it in 24 hours, it'll go automatically.
34:00Okay?
34:08Okay.
34:10Okay.
34:27You wish to go home to your planet?
34:31Of course.
34:41O'Neal, prepare yourself for...
34:45extreme deceleration.
34:48Thanks, Steel.
34:58Oh, my God.
35:06You will get to see your home one last time.
35:10Before you...
35:12and everyone on your planet...
35:14are destroyed.
35:17And your kind will disturb the gold no more.
35:35Sir, I think we have another situation.
35:37We just spoke with Cairn Deep Space Radar,
35:40and they picked up two large blips passing Saturn.
35:42They're heading towards Earth.
35:44Any identification yet?
35:46Not yet, sir. NASA's just repositioning Hubble right now.
35:48Then we should be able to get a closer look.
35:52I guess Dr. Jackson is lucky.
35:55How so, sir?
35:56Well, he won't have to be around to watch his nightmare come true for a second time.
36:01This is Major General Hammond.
36:03Let me speak to the President.
37:01The President is mobilizing every branch,
37:03including the Guard and Reserve.
37:05The Air Force efforts will be coordinated through this facility.
37:08I need this room converted to a Command and Control Center, ASAP.
37:13Now, make sure we have a link to AFSATCOM,
37:16or Encrypted Satellite,
37:18to get a better understanding of what's going on.
37:20Yes, sir.
37:21We'll be in touch.
37:23Thank you, sir.
37:25Command and Control Center, ASAP.
37:27Now, make sure we have a link to AFSATCOM,
37:30or Encrypted Communications,
37:32to all Air Force bases and to NASA.
37:34Any more details on what we're facing?
37:36Not yet, sir.
37:55Let's go.
38:55Scatter!
39:03Scatter, dude!
39:08O'Neil, you must take action!
39:15Scatter!
