Show: Stargate SG-1 - 2x18
Shouldn't they be here by now?
Yes.
I do not believe the Tok'ra would mislead us.
Assuming it was the Tok'ra who sent the message to meet them here.
I mean, all we really received was a set of coordinates.
On our radio frequency.
Who else would send us a signal like that?
Y'know, I'm not real crazy about this...
..."Don't call us, we'll call you" policy.
There!
Cover up!
Holy...
buckets!
Help me.
Well!
Whoa!
Is that who I think it is?
Tauri, please.
Teal'c!
Apophis is much more valuable to us alive than dead.
Sir, we've got incoming!
Oy!
All right, dial us up.
Get us outta here.
What are they doing?
They wish to take Apophis alive.
Agh!
Colonel?
General Hammond, Apophis.
Apophis!
General Hammond.
We've met.
I demand Kal mah!
I'm not really sure, but I think he's asking for...
Sanctuary.
Right.
Why?
I think some rival Goa'uld just kicked his ass.
There were several other death gliders in pursuit, sir.
I demand Kal mah!
You're not in a position to demand anything, sir.
Lock him up.
Sir, with respect, he is badly injured.
We need to get him into the OR right now.
Do what you need to keep him alive, Doctor.
We've got a lot of questions.
Yes, sir.
OK, let's move him.
I'm gonna start him on two IVs.
Let's go!
I want four SFs posted at all times.
If he tries to escape, you're authorised to do whatever is necessary to stop him.
We'll debrief at 1100 hours.
Yes, sir.
Both femurs were smashed and there was internal bleeding.
Surgery and transfusions have stabilised him.
His Goa'uld symbiote will repair those injuries.
It's kept him alive so far, Teal'c, but...
take a look at this.
What you're looking at is the symbiote attached to the host's brainstem.
D'you see all these lesions?
There's dozens.
I can treat the human part...
...but as for the symbiote itself...
There is no treatment.
He's been tortured.
Sam?
I...
I just had a memory of...
of Jolinar.
Pain...
When she was killed by the Ashrak.
The Ashrak had this device.
He used it on us.
It was meant to cause incredible pain.
Apophis was tortured by the same thing.
So he's dying?
Yes.
You're sure about that?
As sure as I can be, sir, considering what we know of Goa'uld physiology.
Good!
When?
Without access to a sarcophagus, the Goa'uld body will continue to deteriorate.
So we're looking at days...
weeks, certainly.
This torture wasn't designed to extract information.
It's a method of execution.
So what does he really want?
You heard him yourself.
He wants sanctuary.
I'm not buying that.
He gambled we would show compassion even to our worst enemy.
He was right.
You think he orchestrated this?
Let me tell you something.
The only compassion I showed was by not blowing his head off.
I have witnessed...
...once powerful Goa'uld enter the service of their conquerors in exchange for life.
When Apophis was the conqueror, he enjoyed seeing his enemies so weakened.
We're a long way from being his conquerors.
But we are greatly responsible for his downfall.
He lost an army when you destroyed those two ships in orbit.
Bra'tac said that weakened his place among the Goa'uld System Lords.
His blood is in the water and the sharks have a feeding frenzy.
And he has come here seeking refuge.
Well, that's tough!
I say we beat whatever information we can out of old snake- boy...
...and toss him back to the sharks.
Not so fast, Colonel.
He's essentially a prisoner of war.
That gives him certain rights.
Rights, General?
We also have to consider the host.
I'm sorry, sir, but we are dealing with two beings within one body.
The symbiote may be an enemy, but the host is innocent.
Oh, come on!
How much of the host do you think is still around?
Apophis will have that knowledge.
We also need to consider military intelligence.
I informed my superiors of our situation.
My orders are to extract whatever information we can...
...in the short time we may have.
He will tell you nothing, General.
If he believes it's in his own interest, he might.
We are the only thing between him and whatever Goa'uld was after him.
We need answers.
Let me know when he's conscious.
I'll tell you when he's ready for questioning, sir.
Dismissed.
Sir?
I should've shot him.
Doctor Fraiser, he's awake.
Not so close, doc!
He's not strong enough to hurt me, Colonel.
He wants to talk to you.
He asked to speak to you by name.
O'Neill.
I am dying.
My heart bleeds for you.
You lie poorly.
It is you who have done this.
You rejoice.
Not really.
What do you want?
To live.
Can't help you there.
That's between you and your god.
Oh, wait a minute!
You are your god!
That's a problem.
I am worth far more to you than you will admit.
You tell me, what are you worth?
Your people...
...they are still primitive.
You will be destroyed.
You're not up to it.
Not me.
There is another.
Yeah?
Who?
There is much you would learn from me, Tauri.
But for that knowledge there is a price.
A new host.
A host?
So that I may live.
In exchange for all the knowledge of the Goa'uld.
The secrets of star travel...
...our weapons...
...our power.
All that?
In time, more.
Go to hell.
A single human life is worth so much you would risk a world?
That's right.
That's why they call us the good guys.
Doc...
...let me know when he dies.
Sokar!
What?
An ancient and powerful Goa'uld.
You have helped him to become strong.
The last of my loyal Jaffa died stealing me from his grasp.
He will not rest until I am found.
That is why I chose to come here.
So that, in death, I would be assured you will die with me.
Sokar is a Goa'uld of ancient times.
He was ruler of the System Lords, but was defeated by an alliance of Goa'uld.
Apophis and Ra were his conquerors.
Where did he go?
Apophis himself believed him destroyed.
Obviously, he was mistaken.
Well, if he was almost wiped out, how bad could he be now?
It's rhetorical, Teal'c.
His name's very old in Earth mythology.
He was the most feared deity in ancient Egypt- the original god of death.
Got anything a little more up to date?
I don't know what he's been up to lately, but...
there was a time he ruled Earth.
His lands near Memphis were covered by darkness...
...and inhabited by...
serpents.
Unas.
The first hosts of the Goa'uld.
Well, that makes sense.
If the Unas were the first ones...
...there had to have been a time when both forms of Goa'uld host coexisted.
Kind of like Neanderthal...
Which is he?
I don't know.
But his portion of Tuat, or the Otherworld, was filled with lakes of fire.
The wicked were thrown in as punishment, after torture and mutilation.
Hell.
Yeah.
Basically, he was the original Satan.
Well!
Isn't that special!
Incoming traveller.
Speak of the devil!
Lieutenant Simmons!
There are no units offworld.
Close the iris.
Yes, sir.
Go, go, go!
Move it!
Let's go!
On the alert!
Is there any way to determine what that was?
We can get a radiation team to check the decay signature on the iris.
I'm on it, Captain.
Radiation team to gate room.
Sir, I'd like to get back to the interrogation, if I might.
OK.
Sir, I'm...
...the expert on Sokar around here.
I'd like a shot at the interrogation.
Yeah.
Go ahead.
Is he conscious?
Come, Daniel.
You know my name?
Because of what we hold in common.
Amaunet, my queen.
Her name is Sha're.
She is my wife.
They are one and the same.
Amaunet possesses her.
Sha're is a prisoner.
But she is somewhere.
I want you to tell me where.
Amaunet...
I loved her.
You do not believe me?
No.
No, I...
I don't think that's possible.
How could you?
Our minds...
...our knowledge...
...our very being is so much greater...
...so much more.
I know where your child is.
My son?
Yes.
I brought him into the world with my own hands...
...on Abydos.
He was taken by Heru-ur.
No.
By me.
I have no use for the child now.
Amaunet...
I knew the moment I laid eyes on her she was the vessel for a queen.
If you don't tell me where she is...
...I'll kill you right here.
You have neither the strength...
nor the will.
Daniel.
We...
We think that thud we heard hitting the iris was a Sagan box.
Its radioactive signature matches the one we gave the Tok'ra.
They're coming here.
Incoming traveller.
Decision time, sir.
Captain Carter, are you 100%/% certain?
That the signature matches the one we gave the Tok'ra?
Yes, sir.
That it came from them?
No.
What if one or more of the Tok'ra have been captured by Sokar and tortured?
I don't think that they would give us up.
I'm with Carter, General.
I say we keep the door open.
Very well.
Samantha.
Martouf.
Defence team, you may stand down.
I offer you greetings from the High Council of the Tok'ra.
Why didn't my father come?
He's dealing with more urgent matters.
We come to offer you a word of warning.
Which is?
We know you have Apophis as your prisoner.
You must return him to the planet you retrieved him from immediately.
Since Jacob has joined the Tok'ra, I have come to a deeper understanding...
...of your people, your purpose, and your extraordinary gifts.
Thank you.
You have shown skill and cunning in taking Apophis from the hands of Sokar.
However...
You know, as much as I love where you're going with this, we...
...didn't exactly do that.
Our operatives aboard Sokar's vessel...
...witnessed you leave the crash site and enter the Stargate.
We received a signal.
A set of coordinates.
We thought it was from you.
We sent no such signal.
We know that now.
Then who?
We're going to assume it was Apophis.
Why would he take refuge among the Tauri?
He despises you.
And you have nothing of use to him.
He's goin' down.
And he wants to take us with him.
He has taken advantage of your weakness.
We don't consider what we did a sign of weakness.
Then you are fools.
Turn him over to Sokar now and he may spare you.
I'm afraid we can't do that just yet.
If he remains here, you will all die.
If not by the hand of Sokar...
...then by the many Goa'uld who wish to destroy Apophis themselves.
You do not see what you have done.
You have entered a battle you are ill- equipped to fight...
...tipped the balance of power among the Goa'uld...
...and worsened the fortune of your race.
We must know...
...what would happen to him if we turned him over.
I am certain he would be executed.
Eventually.
I see.
Surely you welcome this.
His guilt is clear.
He cannot be allowed to escape punishment.
He won't.
He's dying.
You are certain of this?
Yes.
His body has begun to age at an increasing rate.
Without a sarcophagus to rejuvenate him, of course.
In the short time he has remaining...
...we may yet learn information that could help us to defend ourselves.
Your knowledge is too primitive for such information to be of any use.
Don't you comprehend the danger you are in?
We cannot defend you from the Goa'uld.
You cannot expect us to.
We don't.
Overconfidence was theirfailing, O'Neill.
I hope it has not also become yours.
Forgive Lantash.
He is sometimes passionate in his opinions.
We cannot and would not force you to do anything.
But since we have not convinced you of the danger you face...
...may we see him?
What is that you're injecting into him?
Morphine sulphate.
To ease the pain.
You said he had been tortured.
He's also experiencing withdrawal symptoms from the sarcophagus.
But he is your enemy.
He is my patient.
Amaunet!
Apophis, hear me.
Amaunet!
I would speak with you.
Amaunet!
My love!
Where are you?
See- mu- we!
See- mu- we!
That's ancient Egyptian.
This...
must be the host.
Talk to him.
I don't know what to say!
Thousands of years, trapped inside your own body...
It's unimaginable.
He won't be conscious again for a while.
Then we will take our leave of him.
I will tell you the coordinates to send us.
We can question him together.
We can share any information we get.
Incoming traveller.
Expecting someone?
No.
Defence teams, stand by.
Keep that iris closed.
Yes, sir.
Sokar has found you.
How?
His pilots saw you flee through the Chaapa- ai.
The symbols of the Tauri are well known by the Goa'uld.
That iris will hold.
It's a trinium titanium alloy.
Just a few microns from the event horizon.
It won't let matter reintegrate.
Something is appearing.
How is this possible?
The space between your metal barrier and the wormhole...
...may be enough for particles of high energy to reintegrate.
Subatomic particles?
Yes.
He's firing a particle accelerator at the wormhole?
Captain?
Sir, we may be seeing the decay of subatomic particles...
...as they bombard the iris.
Small enough to reintegrate, but moving at near light velocities.
If Sokar can modulate the particle stream enough...
People of the Tauri.
You have taken what is mine.
For this you will be destroyed.
The iris is beginning to heat up, sir.
How long can they maintain this?
The longest Goa'uld attack against an iris was 38 minutes.
We think that's the maximum a wormhole can be maintained.
They'll dial us up and do this all over again.
This changes things.
I'd better get on the phone with the President.
Can you help us?
I know of no way.
In the meantime, Carter, why don't you see what you can get out of Apophis?
His neck's on the line here now, too.
Yes, sir.
I will accompany you.
I will not speak to the Shol'va.
Just answer this.
Sokar is firing a particle beam at the barrier we have within our Stargate.
How do we defend against it?
There is no defence.
He lies.
Shol'va, kree!
How can you be sure?
Because he used the weapon against me.
The pain returns!
We're not gonna get anything out of him in this state.
I'll get Dr Fraiser.
I have waited many years for this moment.
Do you think you have won, Teal'c?
You are about to die.
Perhaps that is so.
But my people have won freedom.
The Jaffa will never be free.
They are free even now.
As am I.
Hear me, Apophis.
This day will become a holy day on Chulak.
The day of your death.
The larval Goa'uld you carry within you...
...is your master even now.
All of you!
And when the time comes for those children to take a host, you will die!
Then we will find other symbiotes, then discard them when they mature.
We will use your kind as you used mine.
No!
The people of Chulak no longer worship you.
They no longer fear you.
The time of Apophis has finally come to an end.
Then kill me now!
Tell us how to defend ourselves.
I will die with a smile on my lips, knowing that you will die along with me, Shol'va.
Come no further.
Let him suffer.
And when he can stand the pain no more...
...he will tell us how to defend ourselves against Sokar.
Teal'c...
please move.
There was a time when you would die for me, Teal'c.
That time is no more.
Easy!
Easy...
All right.
These shields of yours...
They obviously absorb different forms of energy.
Maybe we...
I sense a presence within you.
Could your shields help us or not?
You were once possessed by a Goa'uld.
I'm sure you will make an excellent host...
...for Sokar's new queen.
Airman!
Pour it on, Sergeant!
It's getting damn hot in here!
Better than nothing, sir.
But not by much!
General, Daniel just came up with an idea that might buy us some time.
Sir, if we can dial out, we can prevent them from dialling in.
Good thinking, Doctor.
If we can keep our gate open...
Coming up on 38 minutes, sir.
Stand by.
Go ahead.
Dial it up.
Chevron one, encoded.
Chevron two...
Encoded.
The thing is...
Incoming wormhole established.
Sokar can dial in faster than we can dial out.
Dammit!
Next window's 38 minutes away.
That may be our last chance to dial out.
It's gonna get hot, sir.
Temperature in the gate room now reads 130o Fahrenheit...
...which means the iris must be six or eight times that.
Even if he fails to breach the gate, he will come by ship.
Martouf is right.
What we really need to be concerned with is another assault.
That's what we're inviting by refusing to hand Apophis over.
We couldn't now, even if we wanted to.
Not with Beelzebub banging at the door, no.
I've informed the President.
Our new orders are to cease medical intervention.
That will effectively end his life, General.
I'm aware of that, Doctor.
The President and Joint Chiefs have decided that...
...the risks are too great not to heed the Tok'ra's warning.
Our orders are to send...
...Apophis's body back through the gate to the coordinates...
...where you found him.
Will that make Sokar cease his attack, Martouf?
Sokar is at war with Heru-ur.
He wants no part of the Tauri for the moment.
But you may have come to your senses too late.
He will soon burn through your iris.
I've thought of a way to dial out faster.
If we open our gate in the next window, we can send Apophis through.
When is that?
17 minutes.
Colonel, make arrangements to send Apophis back through the Stargate.
Apophis.
We're sending you back.
See- mu- we.
See- mu- we.
Get Doctor Jackson down here.
I can't keep those men in there much longer.
They've gotta stay until the next window, sir.
He says he's been in an unending dream.
He hoped to awaken from it to see his wife and his children.
He was a scribe in the Temple of Amon at Karnak.
But...
that was another lifetime ago, before the...
before the nightmare.
And now he awakens only to die again.
I said I will speak the words of power and do the rites.
You will be returned to Egypt and buried with honour.
You will pass through the Seven Gates and see your wife and children again...
...and...
rejoice with them for ever.
I'll be back.
Sir, we're gonna lose the computers.
The heat...
Captain?
We need them, sir.
One more minute until the window.
Help me.
No.
A host...
No.
I am...
...afraid.
Colonel.
The Goa'uld is dead.
But the host...
He's still alive.
That's it.
Initiate the dialling program.
The program is running.
I told him this funerary statue would take his last breath...
...and carry his soul back to Egypt.
Chevron seven locked.
Wormhole established.
Open the iris.
Captain Carter has created an outgoing wormhole.
Sokar cannot attack during this time.
That's good.
What now?
We wait.
If Sokar wanted him alive, he'll just start up the attack again.
No, I don't believe he will.
Sokar has a sarcophagus in his possession.
He can revive Apophis, even from death, and torture him as long as he pleases.
Surely a fate he justly deserves.
These are the coordinates we would like you to send us.
But not to anywhere we'll be able to find you again.
To contact us...
...you may use this.
That's Tollen.
They use it to contact the Nox.
Yes.
We are friends of the Tollen.
And of the Tauri.
Thank you.
Well, if we're gonna be friends...
...you're gonna need one of these.
It's called a GDO.
It sends out a signal that lets us know who you are and if it's OK to open the iris.
Otherwise, you could end up splattered against the...
well...
I understand.
Come on, I'll show you how it works.
All right.
Let's send them home, people.
Subtitles times repaired by wEnC
Yes.
I do not believe the Tok'ra would mislead us.
Assuming it was the Tok'ra who sent the message to meet them here.
I mean, all we really received was a set of coordinates.

Is that who I think it is?
Tauri, please.
Teal'c!
Apophis is much more valuable to us alive than dead.
Sir, we've got incoming!
Oy!
All right, dial us up.
Get us outta here.
What are they doing?
They wish to take Apophis alive.
Agh!
Colonel?
General Hammond, Apophis.
Apophis!
General Hammond.
We've met.

...the expert on Sokar around here.
I'd like a shot at the interrogation.
Yeah.
Go ahead.
Is he conscious?
Come, Daniel.
You know my name?
Because of what we hold in common.
Amaunet, my queen.
Her name is Sha're.
She is my wife.
They are one and the same.
Amaunet possesses her.
Sha're is a prisoner.
But she is somewhere.
I want you to tell me where.
Amaunet...
I loved her.
You do not believe me?
No.
No, I...
I don't think that's possible.
How could you?
Our minds...
...our knowledge...
...our very being is so much greater...
...so much more.
I know where your child is.
My son?
Yes.
I brought him into the world with my own hands...
...on Abydos.
He was taken by Heru-ur.
No.
By me.
I have no use for the child now.
Amaunet...
I knew the moment I laid eyes on her she was the vessel for a queen.
If you don't tell me where she is...
...I'll kill you right here.
You have neither the strength...
nor the will.
Daniel.
We...
We think that thud we heard hitting the iris was a Sagan box.
Its radioactive signature matches the one we gave the Tok'ra.
They're coming here.
Incoming traveller.
Decision time, sir.
Captain Carter, are you 100%/% certain?
That the signature matches the one we gave the Tok'ra?
Yes, sir.
That it came from them?
No.
What if one or more of the Tok'ra have been captured by Sokar and tortured?
I don't think that they would give us up.
I'm with Carter, General.
I say we keep the door open.
Very well.
Samantha.
Martouf.
Defence team, you may stand down.
I offer you greetings from the High Council of the Tok'ra.
Why didn't my father come?
He's dealing with more urgent matters.
We come to offer you a word of warning.
Which is?
We know you have Apophis as your prisoner.
You must return him to the planet you retrieved him from immediately.
Since Jacob has joined the Tok'ra, I have come to a deeper understanding...
...of your people, your purpose, and your extraordinary gifts.
Thank you.
You have shown skill and cunning in taking Apophis from the hands of Sokar.
However...
You know, as much as I love where you're going with this, we...
...didn't exactly do that.
Our operatives aboard Sokar's vessel...
...witnessed you leave the crash site and enter the Stargate.
We received a signal.
A set of coordinates.
We thought it was from you.
We sent no such signal.
We know that now.
Then who?
We're going to assume it was Apophis.
Why would he take refuge among the Tauri?
He despises you.
And you have nothing of use to him.
He's goin' down.
And he wants to take us with him.
He has taken advantage of your weakness.
We don't consider what we did a sign of weakness.
Then you are fools.
Turn him over to Sokar now and he may spare you.
I'm afraid we can't do that just yet.
If he remains here, you will all die.
If not by the hand of Sokar...
...then by the many Goa'uld who wish to destroy Apophis themselves.
You do not see what you have done.
You have entered a battle you are ill- equipped to fight...
...tipped the balance of power among the Goa'uld...
...and worsened the fortune of your race.
We must know...
...what would happen to him if we turned him over.
I am certain he would be executed.
Eventually.
I see.
Surely you welcome this.
His guilt is clear.
He cannot be allowed to escape punishment.
He won't.
He's dying.
You are certain of this?
Yes.
His body has begun to age at an increasing rate.
Without a sarcophagus to rejuvenate him, of course.
In the short time he has remaining...
...we may yet learn information that could help us to defend ourselves.
Your knowledge is too primitive for such information to be of any use.
Don't you comprehend the danger you are in?
We cannot defend you from the Goa'uld.
You cannot expect us to.
We don't.
Overconfidence was theirfailing, O'Neill.
I hope it has not also become yours.
Forgive Lantash.
He is sometimes passionate in his opinions.
We cannot and would not force you to do anything.
But since we have not convinced you of the danger you face...
...may we see him?
What is that you're injecting into him?
Morphine sulphate.
To ease the pain.
You said he had been tortured.
He's also experiencing withdrawal symptoms from the sarcophagus.
But he is your enemy.
He is my patient.
Amaunet!
Apophis, hear me.
Amaunet!
I would speak with you.
Amaunet!
My love!
Where are you?
See- mu- we!
See- mu- we!
That's ancient Egyptian.
This...
must be the host.
Talk to him.
I don't know what to say!
Thousands of years, trapped inside your own body...
It's unimaginable.
He won't be conscious again for a while.
Then we will take our leave of him.
I will tell you the coordinates to send us.
We can question him together.
We can share any information we get.
Incoming traveller.
Expecting someone?
No.
Defence teams, stand by.
Keep that iris closed.
Yes, sir.
Sokar has found you.
How?
His pilots saw you flee through the Chaapa- ai.
The symbols of the Tauri are well known by the Goa'uld.
That iris will hold.
It's a trinium titanium alloy.
Just a few microns from the event horizon.
It won't let matter reintegrate.
Something is appearing.
How is this possible?
The space between your metal barrier and the wormhole...
...may be enough for particles of high energy to reintegrate.
Subatomic particles?
Yes.
He's firing a particle accelerator at the wormhole?
Captain?
Sir, we may be seeing the decay of subatomic particles...
...as they bombard the iris.
Small enough to reintegrate, but moving at near light velocities.
If Sokar can modulate the particle stream enough...
People of the Tauri.
You have taken what is mine.
For this you will be destroyed.
The iris is beginning to heat up, sir.
How long can they maintain this?
The longest Goa'uld attack against an iris was 38 minutes.
We think that's the maximum a wormhole can be maintained.
They'll dial us up and do this all over again.
This changes things.
I'd better get on the phone with the President.
Can you help us?
I know of no way.
In the meantime, Carter, why don't you see what you can get out of Apophis?
His neck's on the line here now, too.
Yes, sir.
I will accompany you.
I will not speak to the Shol'va.
Just answer this.
Sokar is firing a particle beam at the barrier we have within our Stargate.
How do we defend against it?
There is no defence.
He lies.
Shol'va, kree!
How can you be sure?
Because he used the weapon against me.
The pain returns!
We're not gonna get anything out of him in this state.
I'll get Dr Fraiser.
I have waited many years for this moment.
Do you think you have won, Teal'c?
You are about to die.
Perhaps that is so.
But my people have won freedom.
The Jaffa will never be free.
They are free even now.
As am I.
Hear me, Apophis.
This day will become a holy day on Chulak.
The day of your death.
The larval Goa'uld you carry within you...
...is your master even now.
All of you!
And when the time comes for those children to take a host, you will die!
Then we will find other symbiotes, then discard them when they mature.
We will use your kind as you used mine.
No!
The people of Chulak no longer worship you.
They no longer fear you.
The time of Apophis has finally come to an end.
Then kill me now!
Tell us how to defend ourselves.
I will die with a smile on my lips, knowing that you will die along with me, Shol'va.
Come no further.
Let him suffer.
And when he can stand the pain no more...
...he will tell us how to defend ourselves against Sokar.
Teal'c...
please move.
There was a time when you would die for me, Teal'c.
That time is no more.
Easy!
Easy...
All right.
These shields of yours...
They obviously absorb different forms of energy.
Maybe we...
I sense a presence within you.
Could your shields help us or not?
You were once possessed by a Goa'uld.
I'm sure you will make an excellent host...
...for Sokar's new queen.
Airman!
Pour it on, Sergeant!
It's getting damn hot in here!
Better than nothing, sir.
But not by much!
General, Daniel just came up with an idea that might buy us some time.
Sir, if we can dial out, we can prevent them from dialling in.
Good thinking, Doctor.
If we can keep our gate open...
Coming up on 38 minutes, sir.
Stand by.
Go ahead.
Dial it up.
Chevron one, encoded.
Chevron two...
Encoded.
The thing is...
Incoming wormhole established.
Sokar can dial in faster than we can dial out.
Dammit!
Next window's 38 minutes away.
That may be our last chance to dial out.
It's gonna get hot, sir.
Temperature in the gate room now reads 130o Fahrenheit...
...which means the iris must be six or eight times that.
Even if he fails to breach the gate, he will come by ship.
Martouf is right.
What we really need to be concerned with is another assault.
That's what we're inviting by refusing to hand Apophis over.
We couldn't now, even if we wanted to.
Not with Beelzebub banging at the door, no.
I've informed the President.
Our new orders are to cease medical intervention.
That will effectively end his life, General.
I'm aware of that, Doctor.
The President and Joint Chiefs have decided that...
...the risks are too great not to heed the Tok'ra's warning.
Our orders are to send...
...Apophis's body back through the gate to the coordinates...
...where you found him.
Will that make Sokar cease his attack, Martouf?
Sokar is at war with Heru-ur.
He wants no part of the Tauri for the moment.
But you may have come to your senses too late.
He will soon burn through your iris.
I've thought of a way to dial out faster.
If we open our gate in the next window, we can send Apophis through.
When is that?
17 minutes.
Colonel, make arrangements to send Apophis back through the Stargate.
Apophis.
We're sending you back.
See- mu- we.
See- mu- we.
Get Doctor Jackson down here.
I can't keep those men in there much longer.
They've gotta stay until the next window, sir.
He says he's been in an unending dream.
He hoped to awaken from it to see his wife and his children.
He was a scribe in the Temple of Amon at Karnak.
But...
that was another lifetime ago, before the...
before the nightmare.
And now he awakens only to die again.
I said I will speak the words of power and do the rites.
You will be returned to Egypt and buried with honour.
You will pass through the Seven Gates and see your wife and children again...
...and...
rejoice with them for ever.
I'll be back.
Sir, we're gonna lose the computers.
The heat...
Captain?
We need them, sir.
One more minute until the window.
Help me.
No.
A host...
No.
I am...
...afraid.
Colonel.
The Goa'uld is dead.
But the host...
He's still alive.
That's it.
Initiate the dialling program.
The program is running.
I told him this funerary statue would take his last breath...
...and carry his soul back to Egypt.
Chevron seven locked.
Wormhole established.
Open the iris.
Captain Carter has created an outgoing wormhole.
Sokar cannot attack during this time.
That's good.
What now?
We wait.
If Sokar wanted him alive, he'll just start up the attack again.
No, I don't believe he will.
Sokar has a sarcophagus in his possession.
He can revive Apophis, even from death, and torture him as long as he pleases.
Surely a fate he justly deserves.
These are the coordinates we would like you to send us.
But not to anywhere we'll be able to find you again.
To contact us...
...you may use this.
That's Tollen.
They use it to contact the Nox.
Yes.
We are friends of the Tollen.
And of the Tauri.
Thank you.
Well, if we're gonna be friends...
...you're gonna need one of these.
It's called a GDO.
It sends out a signal that lets us know who you are and if it's OK to open the iris.
Otherwise, you could end up splattered against the...
well...
I understand.
Come on, I'll show you how it works.
All right.
Let's send them home, people.
