1 00:00:13,872 --> 00:00:16,511 - How we doing? - I got it lined up pretty close. 2 00:00:16,672 --> 00:00:19,550 No such thing as close. Thread the needle or we're dead. 3 00:00:19,712 --> 00:00:21,862 You can do it. Nice and easy. 4 00:00:22,032 --> 00:00:26,423 - OK. We're close enough to dial the gate. - Yes! Hurry up and get us back! 5 00:00:33,592 --> 00:00:36,060 - Get this damn thing off me. - We can't. 6 00:00:38,152 --> 00:00:42,668 - Cut it off. - Radio back that we've got an emergency. 7 00:00:42,832 --> 00:00:44,788 There must be something we can do. 8 00:00:44,952 --> 00:00:48,945 There's an emergency first-aid kit behind the pilot seat. Get it. 9 00:00:50,072 --> 00:00:53,985 Everything we do to try to remove it makes the pain worse. Try and be still. 10 00:00:55,872 --> 00:01:00,263 - Is there no way to go faster? - He's trying to get us back in one piece. 11 00:01:07,152 --> 00:01:09,507 Atlantis Base, this is Ford. 12 00:01:09,672 --> 00:01:13,187 Jumper One is inbound with a medical emergency. Please respond. 13 00:01:22,792 --> 00:01:26,182 - What's going on? - The team has a medical emergency. 14 00:01:26,352 --> 00:01:29,628 - Dr Beckett is on his way. - Put on Major Sheppard. 15 00:01:29,792 --> 00:01:32,181 He's the one who's injured. 16 00:01:36,512 --> 00:01:39,743 - What am I expecting to find? - Something for the pain. 17 00:01:39,912 --> 00:01:43,348 - He needs a doctor. How much longer? - Almost there. 18 00:01:43,512 --> 00:01:46,151 Flight, Jumper One on final approach. 19 00:01:47,072 --> 00:01:49,825 This is Weir. What's Major Sheppard's injury? 20 00:01:49,992 --> 00:01:54,508 Some sort of alien bug attached itself to his neck. He's completely immobile. 21 00:01:54,672 --> 00:01:59,666 - What's it doing to him? - We don't know, but we can't get it off. 22 00:01:59,832 --> 00:02:02,790 You understand the risk of bringing it back to Atlantis? 23 00:02:02,952 --> 00:02:05,022 Yes, ma'am, but we don't have a choice. 24 00:02:05,192 --> 00:02:08,070 Understood, Lieutenant. Good luck. 25 00:02:10,032 --> 00:02:12,421 Quarantine the jumper bay. 26 00:02:21,592 --> 00:02:23,901 It's all automatic from here. 27 00:02:24,072 --> 00:02:26,063 Here we go! 28 00:04:04,432 --> 00:04:06,707 - Where are they? - I don't know. 29 00:04:06,872 --> 00:04:10,069 The gate's still active. They should be through by now. 30 00:04:33,912 --> 00:04:36,824 - Oh, no. - What happened? 31 00:04:36,992 --> 00:04:42,385 The drive pod... The wing things that stick out must have failed to retract. 32 00:04:42,552 --> 00:04:45,385 That or the Stargate shrank, which I highly doubt. 33 00:04:45,552 --> 00:04:47,383 This is a big problem. 34 00:04:47,552 --> 00:04:50,146 - What can we do? - I don't see anything we can do. 35 00:04:50,312 --> 00:04:53,941 This is a... a very, very big problem. 36 00:04:57,272 --> 00:04:59,661 Give me a hand. 37 00:05:02,072 --> 00:05:04,870 What the hell was that? 38 00:05:05,032 --> 00:05:08,263 - That's strange. - Yes, it is. 39 00:05:08,432 --> 00:05:11,708 - That is the...? - Yes, it is. 40 00:05:11,872 --> 00:05:14,261 That scraping sound... We're stuck. 41 00:05:14,432 --> 00:05:17,708 Yes, we are. The engine pods failed to retract in time. 42 00:05:17,872 --> 00:05:20,306 It's a square peg, round hole. 43 00:05:20,472 --> 00:05:24,147 - Can we pull the others out? - Our hands would dematerialise. 44 00:05:24,312 --> 00:05:27,384 It's... There's no way to reach for them. 45 00:05:30,472 --> 00:05:32,030 The major. 46 00:05:32,192 --> 00:05:34,831 He must have been knocked unconscious by the impact. 47 00:05:34,992 --> 00:05:36,823 This is Weir. What's your status? 48 00:05:36,992 --> 00:05:39,870 This is Ford. The four of us are still here, 49 00:05:40,032 --> 00:05:44,628 but Markham and Stackhouse are inside the event horizon. 50 00:05:44,792 --> 00:05:47,625 - Say again? - Ma'am... 51 00:05:47,792 --> 00:05:50,386 Jumper One is lodged in the Stargate. 52 00:05:50,552 --> 00:05:54,022 Teyla, Dr McKay and I are in the rear compartment with the major. 53 00:05:54,192 --> 00:05:56,183 He's in bad shape. 54 00:05:56,352 --> 00:05:58,912 Markham and Stackhouse are in the forward section. 55 00:05:59,072 --> 00:06:01,540 - How did that happen? - Engine pods. 56 00:06:01,712 --> 00:06:04,988 We think it was one of the engine pods. 57 00:06:05,152 --> 00:06:07,871 - There's no way to be sure. - It is the only possibility. 58 00:06:08,032 --> 00:06:11,502 You won't be able to access the flight controls. 59 00:06:11,672 --> 00:06:15,426 An intriguing conundrum, one I would love to discuss in detail 60 00:06:15,592 --> 00:06:17,662 until this ship is cut in two! 61 00:06:17,832 --> 00:06:20,141 Rodney, calm down. Rodney! 62 00:06:20,312 --> 00:06:23,190 If I'm gonna be any help, I need to catch up. 63 00:06:23,352 --> 00:06:27,391 Lieutenant Ford, back it up for me. 64 00:06:28,912 --> 00:06:32,825 We couldn't ID the Wraith base of operations from space like last time, 65 00:06:32,992 --> 00:06:37,907 so we went to the same landing coordinates as before to get a closer look. 66 00:06:58,232 --> 00:07:00,348 - It's gone. - What? 67 00:07:00,512 --> 00:07:04,744 - I thought it was in a mountainside. - It was. We were inside it. 68 00:07:07,752 --> 00:07:10,664 Let's move. 69 00:07:27,392 --> 00:07:31,067 - This was the spot. - It's more a hole than a mountain, really. 70 00:07:31,232 --> 00:07:34,622 - Could it have been destroyed? - This is not a blast crater. 71 00:07:34,792 --> 00:07:39,343 No. It's like they just picked up and left. So, ship? 72 00:07:39,512 --> 00:07:42,231 The mountainside was covered in trees. 73 00:07:42,392 --> 00:07:45,145 But the Wraith hibernate for centuries, right? 74 00:07:45,312 --> 00:07:47,621 So a lot of trees could have overgrown. 75 00:07:47,792 --> 00:07:52,229 Then we were held prisoner inside one of the great ships in the drawings. 76 00:07:52,392 --> 00:07:54,952 They've left to begin culling worlds. 77 00:07:58,832 --> 00:08:01,551 There's movement down there. 78 00:08:02,432 --> 00:08:04,104 Go! 79 00:08:12,392 --> 00:08:15,987 - She hardly meant begin at the beginning. - She needs to know. 80 00:08:16,152 --> 00:08:19,383 - We have less than 38 minutes. - Why 38 minutes? 81 00:08:19,552 --> 00:08:23,101 That's the maximum amount of time a Stargate can remain open. 82 00:08:23,272 --> 00:08:26,469 It's one of the more immutable laws of wormhole physics. 83 00:08:26,632 --> 00:08:29,271 Look at the time. It's now more like 35 minutes! 84 00:08:29,432 --> 00:08:32,663 - I get it. What do you need? - Help. 85 00:08:32,832 --> 00:08:37,189 Let me put Kavanagh, Grodin and Simpson in a room, see what they come up with. 86 00:08:37,352 --> 00:08:39,229 And the Czech whose name I never remember. 87 00:08:39,392 --> 00:08:42,190 - Dr Zelenka? - That's him. We'll work it at our end. 88 00:08:42,352 --> 00:08:44,741 We'll call you. Thank you. 89 00:08:46,832 --> 00:08:49,744 - Where's my patient? - There's been a problem. 90 00:08:49,912 --> 00:08:52,870 Keep a channel open. And turn that damn alarm off. 91 00:09:06,952 --> 00:09:08,943 Hi, Teyla. 92 00:09:12,952 --> 00:09:15,546 - Are you all right? - I'm fine. 93 00:09:17,232 --> 00:09:20,224 Something tells me we haven't made it to Atlantis yet. 94 00:09:20,392 --> 00:09:22,383 No. 95 00:09:29,152 --> 00:09:31,143 Ford? 96 00:09:34,552 --> 00:09:37,020 - What is that? - We're stuck, sir. 97 00:09:37,192 --> 00:09:40,389 - We're what? - In the gate. 98 00:09:40,552 --> 00:09:44,147 You mean my day just got worse? 99 00:09:47,232 --> 00:09:50,986 We're going with the assumption it was one of the drive pods. 100 00:09:51,152 --> 00:09:53,746 It was damaged as we tried to take off. 101 00:09:58,272 --> 00:10:00,263 We're taking fire. 102 00:10:01,592 --> 00:10:04,425 - Let's get some altitude! - I'm trying, sir! 103 00:10:07,272 --> 00:10:12,392 There's no way of knowing, but if you know a way of retracting the mechanism... 104 00:10:12,552 --> 00:10:17,262 - Cockpit on the left. - The cockpit is demolecularised. 105 00:10:17,432 --> 00:10:20,504 How about somewhere back here? 106 00:10:20,672 --> 00:10:22,469 - No. - I didn't think so. 107 00:10:22,632 --> 00:10:25,704 I'll be a foot and a half over there taking some readings. 108 00:10:25,872 --> 00:10:29,421 Feel free to talk amongst yourselves. 109 00:10:39,352 --> 00:10:42,230 You've been briefed. We have less than half an hour. 110 00:10:42,392 --> 00:10:45,941 - Where's Dr Zelenka? - He's working up a simulation. 111 00:10:46,112 --> 00:10:48,387 - That's good. - If there was time it would be. 112 00:10:48,552 --> 00:10:51,669 Let's not admit defeat yet. There are six people on that ship. 113 00:10:51,832 --> 00:10:54,949 Forgive me if this is a stupid question. 114 00:10:55,112 --> 00:10:59,549 If they step through the event horizon, won't they come through the front part? 115 00:10:59,712 --> 00:11:04,467 - The front half won't rematerialise here. - The Stargate transmits in discrete units. 116 00:11:04,632 --> 00:11:09,581 The front half cannot rematerialise until the whole ship crosses the event horizon. 117 00:11:09,752 --> 00:11:14,064 The Stargate is essentially waiting for the jumper and everyone inside 118 00:11:14,232 --> 00:11:18,350 to enter completely before it can transport them. 119 00:11:18,512 --> 00:11:20,628 The gate sends things through in one piece. 120 00:11:20,792 --> 00:11:22,430 Sorry. 121 00:11:22,592 --> 00:11:27,143 The Stargate won't transmit the matter until the demolecularisation is complete. 122 00:11:27,312 --> 00:11:32,340 When it shuts down, the forward section and the men inside will cease to exist. 123 00:11:32,512 --> 00:11:36,744 - And what about the others? - The ship will be severed instantaneously. 124 00:11:36,912 --> 00:11:40,905 They'll be exposed to hard vacuum... in 29 minutes. 125 00:11:43,872 --> 00:11:46,511 What if they close the bulkhead door? 126 00:11:46,672 --> 00:11:49,266 The rear of the ship would remain pressurised. 127 00:11:49,432 --> 00:11:51,343 It would leak atmosphere like a sieve. 128 00:11:51,512 --> 00:11:53,787 - We could send a second jumper. - And do what? 129 00:11:53,952 --> 00:11:59,345 Figure it out. Contact Jumper One and make the recommendation. 130 00:12:15,832 --> 00:12:18,665 - What are you doing? - Sorry. Here. 131 00:12:18,832 --> 00:12:21,949 - Jumper One, this is Atlantis. - Still here. 132 00:12:22,112 --> 00:12:24,421 We recommend closing the bulkhead door. 133 00:12:24,592 --> 00:12:28,904 - Good thinking. What else? - We're still working on the problem. 134 00:12:29,072 --> 00:12:33,463 - We'll get back to you. Atlantis Base out. - Thanks for calling 135 00:12:35,432 --> 00:12:38,230 - Anybody else claustrophobic? - Why'd you close the door? 136 00:12:38,392 --> 00:12:42,385 So when the Stargate shuts down, we're not directly exposed to space. 137 00:12:42,552 --> 00:12:46,181 - Will it hold? - I just prefer hypoxia to decompression. 138 00:12:46,352 --> 00:12:50,027 - It's a personal thing. - The air's gonna get thin. Calm down. 139 00:12:50,192 --> 00:12:53,343 Wait till you see how thin it gets in 27 minutes. Vacuum! 140 00:12:53,512 --> 00:12:57,505 - Knock it off. - I truly comprehend how screwed we are! 141 00:12:57,672 --> 00:13:00,140 Don't talk to me about screwed! 142 00:13:07,952 --> 00:13:11,991 And let's not give up on Markham and Stackhouse either. 143 00:13:12,152 --> 00:13:14,461 There's plenty of time to solve this thing. 144 00:13:14,632 --> 00:13:18,022 Stop using your mouth and start using your brain. 145 00:13:20,632 --> 00:13:25,023 I'm sorry. I'm just... I react to certain doom a certain way. 146 00:13:25,192 --> 00:13:27,626 It's a bad habit and... 147 00:13:27,792 --> 00:13:31,626 - Maybe we can manually retract it. - Yeah, maybe. 148 00:13:37,072 --> 00:13:39,063 Here. 149 00:13:41,872 --> 00:13:45,182 - You seem stronger. - It's just the pain's not so bad now. 150 00:13:45,352 --> 00:13:47,741 - That's good. - No, it isn't. 151 00:13:47,912 --> 00:13:50,631 I can't feel my legs. 152 00:13:50,792 --> 00:13:54,102 Hands and arms are numb. I can barely move 'em. 153 00:13:54,272 --> 00:13:57,230 The feeling's creeping up. Look, Lieutenant... 154 00:13:57,392 --> 00:14:02,910 What I'm trying to say is if you don't get this damn thing off me... 155 00:14:03,072 --> 00:14:06,064 I have even less time than you do. 156 00:14:23,592 --> 00:14:25,742 Dr Zelenka. 157 00:14:25,912 --> 00:14:28,631 Apologies for not attending your briefing. 158 00:14:28,792 --> 00:14:32,910 I need to know what you're working on so I can communicate it to Jumper One. 159 00:14:33,072 --> 00:14:36,348 We are attempting to retract the, um, uh... 160 00:14:36,512 --> 00:14:40,551 the drive pod back into the fuselage from inside the rear compartment. 161 00:14:40,712 --> 00:14:42,111 Anything yet? 162 00:14:42,272 --> 00:14:47,062 Ancient technology makes it dangerous for them to experiment in this way. 163 00:14:47,232 --> 00:14:51,669 They might accidentally open the rear hatch or shut life support off entirely. 164 00:14:51,832 --> 00:14:55,620 Which is why we are attempting to isolate the correct control pathway. 165 00:14:55,792 --> 00:14:59,785 - Understood. What could I do to help? - Stop talking, please. 166 00:15:07,632 --> 00:15:11,102 Lieutenant, get your knife out and cut this damn thing off. 167 00:15:11,272 --> 00:15:15,026 - It can't hurt as much as it did last time. - We almost lost you. 168 00:15:15,192 --> 00:15:20,664 - You're gonna lose me anyway. - We tried when we were on the planet. 169 00:15:20,832 --> 00:15:22,743 We tried everything. 170 00:15:22,912 --> 00:15:24,903 You ready, sir? 171 00:15:25,992 --> 00:15:27,983 Here we go. 172 00:15:35,632 --> 00:15:39,910 Everything we did just hurt you more. The thing just heals itself. 173 00:15:40,072 --> 00:15:44,145 - It feeds on your strength... like a Wraith. - You had to say that. 174 00:15:44,312 --> 00:15:47,543 My father often told stories of a creature such as this. 175 00:15:47,712 --> 00:15:51,785 I thought he was just trying to keep the children from straying from our camp. 176 00:15:51,952 --> 00:15:54,671 Great. Did he tell you how to kill it? 177 00:15:54,832 --> 00:15:58,427 - I'm not sure we can. - Well, I could use a second opinion. 178 00:15:58,592 --> 00:16:01,390 Get Beckett on the radio. 179 00:16:02,832 --> 00:16:04,982 Affirmative. Over here, sir. 180 00:16:05,152 --> 00:16:07,712 This mike is open. 181 00:16:07,872 --> 00:16:09,669 How's our patient? 182 00:16:09,832 --> 00:16:13,108 He's conscious, but the creature's still latched onto him. 183 00:16:13,272 --> 00:16:16,662 - How d'you feel about house calls, doc? - Would if I could. 184 00:16:16,832 --> 00:16:22,111 You'll have to settle for long distance. I'm told you have something of a cling-on. 185 00:16:24,392 --> 00:16:28,988 That's funny. It's like the ugliest damn tick you've ever seen. 186 00:16:29,152 --> 00:16:33,270 - How did it attach itself? - We were on our way back to the jumper... 187 00:16:34,592 --> 00:16:36,981 with the Wraith shooting at us. 188 00:16:37,832 --> 00:16:41,268 - Go tell Markham to get ready for take-off. - What about you? 189 00:16:41,432 --> 00:16:43,821 I'll be there in a minute. Go! 190 00:17:12,792 --> 00:17:15,431 Major, we're cut off from the jumper. 191 00:17:15,592 --> 00:17:19,062 There's one at your three o'clock. I drew the other two this way. 192 00:17:19,232 --> 00:17:21,223 They're all around us. 193 00:17:21,392 --> 00:17:23,667 They make you see things that aren't there. 194 00:17:23,832 --> 00:17:26,824 The path in front of you is clear. Now move! 195 00:17:33,432 --> 00:17:35,787 - Can you describe it to me? - Yes, sir. 196 00:17:35,952 --> 00:17:39,740 Two feet in length, including the tail. That's wrapped under his armpit. 197 00:17:39,912 --> 00:17:43,302 It's got two sharp spiny things in his neck. 198 00:17:43,472 --> 00:17:45,702 I'll need more than that, son. 199 00:17:45,872 --> 00:17:51,071 Four legs. I guess you could call them that. They're... wrapped around his throat. 200 00:17:51,232 --> 00:17:53,223 I can't see any eyes. 201 00:17:53,392 --> 00:17:56,782 It's got a hard shell, but there's a soft leechy part underneath. 202 00:17:56,952 --> 00:17:59,341 Major, what are your physical symptoms? 203 00:17:59,512 --> 00:18:02,026 At first it felt like a knife in the eye. 204 00:18:02,192 --> 00:18:06,788 Since then I've lost all the feelings in my extremities. Can't move. 205 00:18:06,952 --> 00:18:10,911 So it incapacitates first with pain, then paralysis. 206 00:18:11,072 --> 00:18:14,030 I need to be able to move around to help McKay. 207 00:18:14,192 --> 00:18:17,264 Markham and Stackhouse are dead if I don't. 208 00:18:17,432 --> 00:18:20,469 - What have you tried? - To cut it off, burn it off. 209 00:18:20,632 --> 00:18:23,863 I even tried to shoot it off. Nine mil, point-blank. 210 00:18:24,032 --> 00:18:26,910 Not much worse I can do without killing the major. 211 00:18:27,072 --> 00:18:29,791 I believe the creature is related to the Wraith. 212 00:18:29,952 --> 00:18:31,544 - Really? - How so? 213 00:18:31,712 --> 00:18:35,500 It healed itself by sapping life from Major Sheppard, 214 00:18:35,672 --> 00:18:38,345 just as a Wraith would. 215 00:18:38,512 --> 00:18:43,028 The Wraith evolved from something. It's probably some sort of prehistoric cousin. 216 00:18:45,512 --> 00:18:49,471 The major's getting worse. We gotta do something right now. 217 00:18:49,632 --> 00:18:53,830 You said the creature had an underside of exposed soft tissue like a leech. 218 00:18:53,992 --> 00:18:56,950 I tried to cut into it. It practically strangled him. 219 00:18:57,112 --> 00:19:02,061 Son, you don't cut leeches off. You pour salt on them. 220 00:19:02,232 --> 00:19:05,702 - If you activate the field, they'll die. - They may fix the problem. 221 00:19:05,872 --> 00:19:08,830 - They may not have time. - We could destroy this facility. 222 00:19:08,992 --> 00:19:12,667 You're supposed to be working on solutions. 223 00:19:14,192 --> 00:19:17,901 We think the jumper must be damaged for this to have happened. 224 00:19:18,072 --> 00:19:20,905 Ancient systems are too advanced for pilot error. 225 00:19:21,072 --> 00:19:26,100 So we can't rule out a catastrophic power feedback in the drive manifold. 226 00:19:26,272 --> 00:19:27,830 Without the technobabble. 227 00:19:27,992 --> 00:19:29,983 There's a very slim chance 228 00:19:30,152 --> 00:19:33,110 that when the control is interrupted and the pod damaged, 229 00:19:33,272 --> 00:19:35,069 the main drive could overload. 230 00:19:35,232 --> 00:19:37,746 She means to say explode. 231 00:19:37,912 --> 00:19:42,588 Especially if McKay starts nosing around inside the control conduits. 232 00:19:42,752 --> 00:19:44,663 And he will. I know I would. 233 00:19:44,832 --> 00:19:47,300 And Zelenka is working on simulations. 234 00:19:47,472 --> 00:19:49,747 If there is a catastrophic overload, 235 00:19:49,912 --> 00:19:52,551 the explosion will break up the jumper, 236 00:19:52,712 --> 00:19:55,749 follow the burning fragments through the Stargate like a bomb. 237 00:19:59,392 --> 00:20:02,828 You think the risk of this happening is minimal? 238 00:20:02,992 --> 00:20:05,984 In my opinion... yes. 239 00:20:08,392 --> 00:20:10,781 You all agree? 240 00:20:11,672 --> 00:20:14,232 Then we take the chance. 241 00:20:15,872 --> 00:20:19,990 - It was important to point out the risk. - Fine. You did. 242 00:20:20,152 --> 00:20:25,146 Now, please, worry a little bit more about their lives and less about your own ass. 243 00:20:28,752 --> 00:20:30,743 23 minutes. 244 00:20:35,352 --> 00:20:37,343 - Dr Weir. - I don't have time. 245 00:20:37,512 --> 00:20:40,185 Neither do those people trapped aboard the ship. 246 00:20:40,352 --> 00:20:42,149 News travels fast. 247 00:20:42,312 --> 00:20:45,145 I was speaking with someone who was called to help. 248 00:20:45,312 --> 00:20:47,746 Then you are aware we are very short on time. 249 00:20:47,912 --> 00:20:52,190 I am. Still... this is important. 250 00:20:54,312 --> 00:20:55,711 OK. 251 00:20:55,872 --> 00:20:58,306 You do not know this, but among our people 252 00:20:58,472 --> 00:21:02,181 there is a ritual prayer said when one knows death is upon them. 253 00:21:02,352 --> 00:21:05,071 - We don't know it is. - I am told it is inevitable. 254 00:21:05,232 --> 00:21:08,030 - By whom? - It is not important. 255 00:21:08,192 --> 00:21:11,741 What is important is that Teyla be allowed to prepare for death. 256 00:21:11,912 --> 00:21:17,191 Knowing the time and place of one's end is a very rare thing among our people. 257 00:21:17,352 --> 00:21:19,741 It will not take more than a few moments... 258 00:21:19,912 --> 00:21:24,747 Halling... We need to concentrate all of our efforts on saving them. 259 00:21:24,912 --> 00:21:27,346 At the risk of forsaking Teyla's beliefs? 260 00:21:27,512 --> 00:21:30,584 It is important that we use what little time we have... 261 00:21:30,752 --> 00:21:33,949 I would ask you not to tell me what is important. 262 00:21:34,112 --> 00:21:36,831 - I can't have this conversation. - Why not? 263 00:21:36,992 --> 00:21:39,870 - We are wasting time. - Time Teyla could use to prepare. 264 00:21:40,032 --> 00:21:43,183 You perceive death a certain way. I accept that. 265 00:21:43,352 --> 00:21:47,027 In fact, I respect that. But we do not prepare for death. 266 00:21:47,192 --> 00:21:50,821 We do everything we can to stave it off. That is who we are. 267 00:21:50,992 --> 00:21:53,381 I am not asking you to suspend your efforts. 268 00:21:53,552 --> 00:21:57,989 You want me to tell everyone on that ship that they should expect to die? 269 00:21:58,152 --> 00:22:00,143 I will not send them that message. 270 00:22:00,312 --> 00:22:03,588 And if you feel that that violates Teyla's personal rights, 271 00:22:03,752 --> 00:22:05,868 I apologise, I truly do. 272 00:22:06,032 --> 00:22:10,025 But there's nothing I can do about that right now. I have to go. 273 00:22:21,512 --> 00:22:25,425 We've got everything from the jumper manifest laid out here. 274 00:22:25,592 --> 00:22:30,712 - What's your personal inventory? - OK, we got a Swiss Army knife. 275 00:22:31,632 --> 00:22:36,786 Some chocolate, some water, matches, emergency kit. 276 00:22:36,952 --> 00:22:40,865 We have alcohol, iodine, painkillers. 277 00:22:41,032 --> 00:22:42,829 What is this? 278 00:22:42,992 --> 00:22:45,301 Teyla found a portable defibrillator. 279 00:22:45,472 --> 00:22:49,545 The major would receive the same electric shock. It would likely kill him. 280 00:22:49,712 --> 00:22:52,704 Try everything, one item at a time. 281 00:22:58,632 --> 00:23:01,510 - Dr Weir. - I hope you've got something to tell me. 282 00:23:01,672 --> 00:23:03,663 Yes, I do. 283 00:23:03,832 --> 00:23:06,665 - What the hell was that? - Excuse me? 284 00:23:06,832 --> 00:23:10,871 I left the SGC because I had had it up to here with the military. 285 00:23:11,032 --> 00:23:15,822 - You just busted me like a private. - The air force doesn't have privates. 286 00:23:15,992 --> 00:23:21,020 Neither do I.
