1
00:00:06,048 --> 00:00:09,176
Reliable power generation is one
of our greatest concerns.

2
00:00:09,218 --> 00:00:12,095
With this project, we hope, soon, to be able to convert

3
00:00:12,137 --> 00:00:15,641
and utilize the intense heat trapped
beneath the surface of our planet.

4
00:00:15,682 --> 00:00:17,392
Geothermal energy.

5
00:00:18,143 --> 00:00:19,603
What, using this?!

6
00:00:20,020 --> 00:00:22,523
Do you have any idea how complex geo-thermal...

7
00:00:22,564 --> 00:00:23,565
McKay...

8
00:00:25,025 --> 00:00:26,860
It's gonna work like a charm.

9
00:00:26,902 --> 00:00:29,863
Looks like you're accomplishing
great things here, Chancellor.

10
00:00:30,447 --> 00:00:31,949
Since the last Wraith culling

11
00:00:32,032 --> 00:00:34,368
we have worked diligently to rebuild our society.

12
00:00:34,535 --> 00:00:37,829
Are you not concerned that your efforts
will attract the attention of the Wraith?

13
00:00:37,913 --> 00:00:38,539
Yes...

14
00:00:38,747 --> 00:00:42,417
but we refuse to let that stop us
from striving to reach our potential.

15
00:00:42,459 --> 00:00:45,379
To do otherwise would simply mean victory for them.

16
00:00:45,546 --> 00:00:49,216
However, we currently are working on a viable defence.

17
00:00:50,050 --> 00:00:51,718
Defence?

18
00:00:52,553 --> 00:00:54,221
Really?

19
00:00:54,972 --> 00:00:58,100
We've been here for two days before you mention that?

20
00:00:58,183 --> 00:01:00,936
I had to learn that you could be trusted.

21
00:01:01,103 --> 00:01:03,480
You're talking about some sort of defensive weapon?

22
00:01:03,605 --> 00:01:05,065
You could call it that.

23
00:01:05,107 --> 00:01:08,318
Something that we hope will protect us
from the next Wraith culling.

24
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:09,695
So you are expecting it to happen again?

25
00:01:10,028 --> 00:01:10,863
Of course.

26
00:01:11,321 --> 00:01:13,657
But if the Wraith return as they have historically,

27
00:01:13,699 --> 00:01:16,159
they won't be here for at least another fifty years.

28
00:01:16,285 --> 00:01:18,328
Fifty years, you say.

29
00:01:20,497 --> 00:01:21,874
How about that weapon?

30
00:01:21,915 --> 00:01:24,001
Yes, yes if you'll just come this way.

31
00:01:25,252 --> 00:01:28,297
You haven't told them that we practically
woke the Wraith from hibernation, have you?

32
00:01:28,380 --> 00:01:31,049
Well... I really haven't had the chance

33
00:01:31,175 --> 00:01:32,384
We've been here two days!

34
00:01:32,467 --> 00:01:34,011
One and a half, really.

35
00:01:34,094 --> 00:01:37,347
Major, they're not expecting
the Wraith for another fifty years.

36
00:01:37,806 --> 00:01:39,683
We have to let them know
they could show up at any time now.

37
00:01:39,725 --> 00:01:42,019
If you're so eager, why don't you tell them!

38
00:01:45,314 --> 00:01:47,524
Reminds you of Area 51, doesn't it?

39
00:01:47,566 --> 00:01:49,109
Circa 1918.

40
00:01:49,151 --> 00:01:51,570
I don't think Area 51 was around in 1918, sir.

41
00:01:51,612 --> 00:01:53,447
- Well, the area was.
- True!

42
00:01:53,655 --> 00:01:55,949
I don't think there's a hope in hell
these people could have a weapon that...

43
00:01:55,991 --> 00:01:59,328
Weapons come in all shapes and sizes, Lieutenant.

44
00:02:02,664 --> 00:02:05,792
Major Sheppard, I think you'll find this intriguing.

45
00:02:09,213 --> 00:02:12,341
OK, I'm intrigued.

46
00:02:13,592 --> 00:02:14,718
What is it?

47
00:02:14,927 --> 00:02:19,556
Something that we hope will one day make
us completely immune to the Wraith.

Season 1: Episode 7
Poisoning the well

50
00:03:30,419 --> 00:03:32,171
According to Chancellor Druhin the drug is still

51
00:03:32,212 --> 00:03:33,839
several years away from being finished.

52
00:03:33,964 --> 00:03:36,466
I'd say, given their current level
of technology, that, er,

53
00:03:36,508 --> 00:03:37,885
could be an under-statement.

54
00:03:37,926 --> 00:03:40,846
Just because they believe they're close to
a breakthrough, it doesn't mean that they are.

55
00:03:41,054 --> 00:03:43,849
You saw for yourself their entire civilisation is

56
00:03:43,891 --> 00:03:46,185
based upon the completion of that goal, Doctor McKay.

57
00:03:46,727 --> 00:03:48,645
I would not under estimate them.

58
00:03:48,729 --> 00:03:52,149
Do we even know for certain that
the Wraith are an immediate threat?

59
00:03:52,399 --> 00:03:55,110
We can probably bet they don't have fifty years.

60
00:03:55,194 --> 00:03:58,989
Hence Major Sheppard has generously
offered our help to the Hoffans.

61
00:03:59,823 --> 00:04:00,866
Has he?

62
00:04:02,326 --> 00:04:03,118
Look,

63
00:04:04,119 --> 00:04:06,455
the fact is, if they're onto something,

64
00:04:06,455 --> 00:04:09,166
maybe we can speed up the process.

65
00:04:10,459 --> 00:04:11,835
OK, Major, you have a go.

66
00:04:12,377 --> 00:04:14,588
But if the drug really is just a pipe dream...

67
00:04:14,755 --> 00:04:17,049
Our Doctor Beckett's already volunteered
to help us find that out.

68
00:04:17,090 --> 00:04:18,592
Oh, he has, huh?

69
00:04:19,718 --> 00:04:21,345
He will.

70
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,517
It's not that I mind lending people a hand...

71
00:04:26,642 --> 00:04:29,061
- No, of course not.
- You're a generous man, Carson.

72
00:04:29,102 --> 00:04:30,812
but it's the principle of the thing, isn't it?

73
00:04:30,896 --> 00:04:34,316
You can't go volunteering someone
for something without consulting them first.

74
00:04:34,608 --> 00:04:36,026
That's not even volunteering, is it?

75
00:04:36,068 --> 00:04:38,403
It's being pressed into service.

76
00:04:38,612 --> 00:04:40,280
Not to mention the fact that I'm not...

77
00:04:40,322 --> 00:04:41,406
not military, I can't give you orders.

78
00:04:41,448 --> 00:04:42,282
I know.

79
00:04:42,324 --> 00:04:44,576
Nonononono, he just doesn't like
going through the Stargate.

80
00:04:44,660 --> 00:04:46,328
He's worse than Doctor McCoy.

81
00:04:46,495 --> 00:04:47,496
Who?

82
00:04:47,538 --> 00:04:50,833
The TV character that
Doctor Beckett plays in real life.

83
00:04:50,916 --> 00:04:52,626
Converting a human body into energy

84
00:04:52,751 --> 00:04:56,004
and sending it millions of light years
through a wormhole bloody insanity.

85
00:04:56,129 --> 00:04:58,423
C'mon, how often do you get
to travel to an alien planet?

86
00:04:58,465 --> 00:05:00,384
I was already on an alien planet!

87
00:05:06,723 --> 00:05:08,475
Should you be messing with that stuff?

88
00:05:08,517 --> 00:05:10,352
I know what I'm doing, Major, thank you.

89
00:05:10,435 --> 00:05:13,939
From the looks of things they've mastered
a few basics biochemistry, physiology,

90
00:05:14,022 --> 00:05:16,441
perhaps even some form of molecular biology.

91
00:05:16,525 --> 00:05:19,486
- Fairly impressive considering...
- It is our people's legacy.

92
00:05:19,736 --> 00:05:23,031
This room represents hundreds
of years of medical knowledge.

93
00:05:23,156 --> 00:05:26,702
I am Perna, chief scientist for the project.

94
00:05:26,743 --> 00:05:27,578
John Sheppard.

95
00:05:28,370 --> 00:05:31,665
Uh, and this is Teyla, and Lieutenant Ford...

96
00:05:31,707 --> 00:05:32,291
Carson.

97
00:05:32,624 --> 00:05:33,667
Beckett.

98
00:05:34,126 --> 00:05:34,376
Doctor.

99
00:05:34,418 --> 00:05:36,420
I mean, call me Carson.

100
00:05:36,837 --> 00:05:39,339
I'm, uh, Doctor McKay, Doctor Rodney McKay.

101
00:05:44,052 --> 00:05:46,305
I hope you will find our facilities suitable.

102
00:05:46,346 --> 00:05:47,723
Oh, they're charming!

103
00:05:48,015 --> 00:05:50,017
Perfectly charming!

104
00:05:52,102 --> 00:05:55,397
Long ago, this city was once
a testament to our imagination,

105
00:05:55,564 --> 00:05:58,775
our creative spirit, to endless possibility.

106
00:05:58,859 --> 00:06:00,152
How long ago was that?

107
00:06:00,235 --> 00:06:01,945
It is true that we have been forced

108
00:06:01,987 --> 00:06:03,071
to rebuild many times and

109
00:06:03,113 --> 00:06:04,281
never to our potential.

110
00:06:04,323 --> 00:06:07,075
That is why perfecting the drug is so important.

111
00:06:07,284 --> 00:06:10,829
It is more than just a defence
against the Wraith it is our future.

112
00:06:11,205 --> 00:06:15,417
With respect, Chancellor, you cannot
prevent the culling it is a fact of existence.

113
00:06:15,459 --> 00:06:16,793
A fact we challenge.

114
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,506
We will always search for a way
to end the cycle of destruction.

115
00:06:20,631 --> 00:06:23,884
The Wraith will always prevent
any race from advancing too far.

116
00:06:23,967 --> 00:06:26,094
You figure you can beat 'em?

117
00:06:26,136 --> 00:06:28,263
Yes, through knowledge.

118
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,785
A number of archives like this one
are hidden throughout the city.

119
00:06:49,826 --> 00:06:51,995
Their existence is known only to a few.

120
00:06:52,704 --> 00:06:53,288
This is...

121
00:06:54,248 --> 00:06:54,998
very...

122
00:06:55,374 --> 00:06:56,500
impressive.

123
00:06:56,834 --> 00:07:00,337
We meticulously preserve
the accomplishments of each generation

124
00:07:00,462 --> 00:07:02,631
before they are wiped out by the Wraith.

125
00:07:03,215 --> 00:07:05,509
So everything your people ever learned is in here?

126
00:07:05,634 --> 00:07:08,136
And in other archives identical to this one.

127
00:07:08,220 --> 00:07:09,263
In case they destroy one.

128
00:07:10,138 --> 00:07:11,723
You guys are serious about this.

129
00:07:11,974 --> 00:07:14,601
Standing on the shoulders of our forefathers.

130
00:07:14,685 --> 00:07:17,229
How long have you been working on this Wraith drug?

131
00:07:17,271 --> 00:07:18,772
One hundred and fifty years ago,

132
00:07:18,772 --> 00:07:22,192
our scientists were close to
creating a viable prototype,

133
00:07:22,276 --> 00:07:24,486
only to die before seeing its fruition.

134
00:07:24,611 --> 00:07:26,613
So you're hoping that, if this world's no good to them,

135
00:07:26,613 --> 00:07:28,323
they're just gonna move on?

136
00:07:28,490 --> 00:07:31,493
The Wraith cannot possibly perceive us as a threat.

137
00:07:31,577 --> 00:07:35,122
Y'know, to tell you the truth,
I don't know how they would react.

138
00:07:35,205 --> 00:07:39,710
If they choose to wipe you
out of existence, you will be helpless.

139
00:07:39,793 --> 00:07:41,962
We cannot hope to control their actions.

140
00:07:42,045 --> 00:07:43,297
We can only do what we can

141
00:07:43,297 --> 00:07:47,176
to end the cycle that has gone on for far too long.

142
00:07:49,219 --> 00:07:51,930
His name was Ferrel Mylan.

143
00:07:51,972 --> 00:07:53,932
Before he died in the last culling,

144
00:07:53,932 --> 00:07:57,060
he was one of our most celebrated medical researchers.

145
00:07:57,144 --> 00:07:58,979
He was the one who found it.

146
00:07:59,062 --> 00:08:00,147
Found what?

147
00:08:00,230 --> 00:08:01,023
The key.

148
00:08:01,690 --> 00:08:05,903
His journals tell of one man who
survived an encounter with the Wraith.

149
00:08:06,195 --> 00:08:10,073
Ferrel Mylan's team discovered that
this man possessed a unique protein,

150
00:08:10,407 --> 00:08:13,410
one that enabled him to resist the
chemical released by the Wraith

151
00:08:13,410 --> 00:08:15,495
to precipitate draining of life from their victims

152
00:08:15,579 --> 00:08:18,832
After painstaking trial and error...

153
00:08:18,916 --> 00:08:20,626
Ferrel made a copy of the protein.

154
00:08:21,543 --> 00:08:25,130
He was eventually able to create a prototype of a drug

155
00:08:25,130 --> 00:08:27,716
designed to interfere with the Wraith feeding process.

156
00:08:27,841 --> 00:08:29,051
And it worked?

157
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,347
Ferrel was killed before
the drug could be used to defend Hoff.

158
00:08:33,597 --> 00:08:34,640
And it's been your job

159
00:08:35,516 --> 00:08:37,976
to make certain his work wasn't in vain.

160
00:08:38,227 --> 00:08:40,062
Quite the responsibility.

161
00:08:40,187 --> 00:08:41,855
It is a great honour.

162
00:08:43,941 --> 00:08:49,446
How do you know for certain that this
Ferrel wasn't just embellishing his results,

163
00:08:49,571 --> 00:08:50,781
or for that matter making them up?

164
00:08:50,781 --> 00:08:52,574
I mean, all you have to go on are his notes.

165
00:08:52,699 --> 00:08:55,744
He and his team worked until the last possible moment.

166
00:08:55,827 --> 00:08:57,704
They knew the Wraith ships were overhead

167
00:08:57,704 --> 00:08:59,915
and still they worked through the night,

168
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,251
hoping to provide one more insight,

169
00:09:02,292 --> 00:09:05,337
one last thread of knowledge not for themselves

170
00:09:05,420 --> 00:09:08,841
but for the generation that would survive.

171
00:09:13,303 --> 00:09:17,474
Ten thousand soldiers gave their lives
to give them those last few hours.

172
00:09:18,350 --> 00:09:22,104
The last words of Ferrel's journal
are known to all Hoffans.

173
00:09:23,772 --> 00:09:26,233
I meant no disrespect, Perna.

174
00:09:27,901 --> 00:09:29,111
It's alright.

175
00:09:30,571 --> 00:09:33,073
More than just his journals survived the culling.

176
00:09:33,407 --> 00:09:36,785
His research materials were safeguarded as well,

177
00:09:38,370 --> 00:09:43,375
including carefully preserved Wraith cell samples

178
00:09:43,375 --> 00:09:46,086
which we still use in our work today.

179
00:09:46,879 --> 00:09:47,588
Please.

180
00:09:52,301 --> 00:09:53,510
See for yourself.

181
00:10:03,604 --> 00:10:04,479
Oh!

182
00:10:06,982 --> 00:10:08,275
That's incredible!

183
00:10:16,241 --> 00:10:18,160
I saw it with my own eyes, Doctor Weir.

184
00:10:18,243 --> 00:10:19,203
Yes, in a Petri dish,

185
00:10:19,203 --> 00:10:22,456
and we are talking about
a hundred and fifty year old Wraith cells.

186
00:10:22,664 --> 00:10:24,666
I mean, for all we know, they could be immune to
the drug by now,

187
00:10:24,666 --> 00:10:26,084
or come up with defences against it.

188
00:10:26,168 --> 00:10:27,503
Well, I don't think so, Doctor.

189
00:10:27,628 --> 00:10:29,755
I took the liberty of running a few tests of my own

190
00:10:29,796 --> 00:10:30,547
using cells taken

191
00:10:30,672 --> 00:10:33,800
from the Wraith arm
Major Sheppard brought back from Athos.

192
00:10:34,051 --> 00:10:34,885
The results were the same...

193
00:10:34,885 --> 00:10:37,221
near complete resistance.

194
00:10:37,930 --> 00:10:39,389
They've definitely got something.

195
00:10:39,431 --> 00:10:41,016
Believe me, I'm more surprised than anyone.

196
00:10:41,058 --> 00:10:42,184
So what do you recommend?

197
00:10:43,560 --> 00:10:45,938
That we take their work to the next level.

198
00:10:46,021 --> 00:10:49,107
I've informed the Hoffans of our guest in the brig.

199
00:10:49,858 --> 00:10:51,902
You realise what you're asking for?

200
00:10:52,277 --> 00:10:53,654
I do.

201
00:11:01,912 --> 00:11:03,789
Anything I should know about, Sergeant?

202
00:11:03,831 --> 00:11:05,374
No, sir, he's been quiet.

203
00:11:05,958 --> 00:11:07,584
Still trying to make you see things?

204
00:11:07,626 --> 00:11:09,044
He's given up on that.

205
00:11:10,087 --> 00:11:11,964
I didn't think he'd last this long.

206
00:11:23,058 --> 00:11:25,519
Hello again, Major Sheppard.

207
00:11:29,898 --> 00:11:32,109
Sorry if I woke you.

208
00:11:32,401 --> 00:11:34,945
Just came by to see if there's anything you needed.

209
00:11:35,487 --> 00:11:37,364
Magazine, fresh towels.

210
00:11:38,198 --> 00:11:41,410
You hide your fear poorly, Major.

211
00:11:41,952 --> 00:11:44,788
Y'know, we've been having these conversations
for a couple of weeks now,

212
00:11:44,788 --> 00:11:47,166
and I don't even know your name.

213
00:11:47,791 --> 00:11:49,126
You guys do have names, right?

214
00:11:50,210 --> 00:11:51,128
Let me guess...

215
00:11:52,588 --> 00:11:53,589
Steve?

216
00:11:53,839 --> 00:11:55,090
I am your death.

217
00:11:55,674 --> 00:11:58,135
That is all you need to know.

218
00:11:58,635 --> 00:12:00,554
I prefer Steve.

219
00:12:06,143 --> 00:12:07,978
What do you hope to gain from this?

220
00:12:08,187 --> 00:12:12,816
Just trying to bridge the gap between
our two cultures; get to know you better.

221
00:12:13,650 --> 00:12:15,527
That and try to figure out how to keep your kind

222
00:12:15,527 --> 00:12:18,655
from sucking the life
out of millions of innocent people.

223
00:12:18,697 --> 00:12:21,283
Even if I told you what you want to know,

224
00:12:21,575 --> 00:12:24,286
it would change nothing.

225
00:12:24,369 --> 00:12:29,625
You are doomed as are any humans that stand in our way.

226
00:12:29,750 --> 00:12:31,960
Can't be a nice way to die?

227
00:12:32,544 --> 00:12:33,337
Hungry,

228
00:12:33,837 --> 00:12:34,838
slow,

229
00:12:36,048 --> 00:12:39,676
knowing your food source is just...

230
00:12:39,885 --> 00:12:41,803
out of reach.

231
00:12:43,055 --> 00:12:44,473
Why do you keep me here?

232
00:12:44,556 --> 00:12:46,683
I need to know what we're up against.

233
00:12:46,808 --> 00:12:47,726
For example,

234
00:12:48,393 --> 00:12:51,647
how many of those big hive ships
have you got and where are they?

235
00:12:51,772 --> 00:12:54,191
You have nothing to offer me in return.

236
00:12:56,568 --> 00:13:00,697
We could talk about easing your hunger...

237
00:13:01,323 --> 00:13:03,242
Steve.

238
00:13:03,700 --> 00:13:06,745
You would never sacrifice one of your own kind.

239
00:13:07,913 --> 00:13:10,999
And yet, it is all that stands between

240
00:13:11,041 --> 00:13:14,461
you and the information you seek.

241
00:13:25,764 --> 00:13:29,351
Using living Wraith cells
is our only recourse at this juncture.

242
00:13:29,601 --> 00:13:33,355
Without them we have no way of knowing
for certain if the drug is actually viable.

243
00:13:33,438 --> 00:13:35,607
You said it worked effectively on the cells

244
00:13:35,607 --> 00:13:37,484
of the severed Wraith arm we brought back.

245
00:13:37,568 --> 00:13:37,943
It did.

246
00:13:38,652 --> 00:13:41,864
But those were already in a partially decayed state.

247
00:13:42,322 --> 00:13:44,199
We need live samples.

248
00:13:44,324 --> 00:13:45,701
And with new samples

249
00:13:45,701 --> 00:13:47,995
you think it's possible to create a prototype?

250
00:13:48,537 --> 00:13:50,289
Given enough time, yes I do.

251
00:13:50,330 --> 00:13:52,583
He's got a good point
the Hoffans are practically obsessed.

252
00:13:52,624 --> 00:13:53,584
Thank you, Rodney.

253
00:13:53,625 --> 00:13:54,376
I agree, Doctor.

254
00:13:54,710 --> 00:13:57,462
But their obsession may become their undoing.

255
00:13:57,671 --> 00:14:00,883
Well, even if they do... undo, it'd be good for us.

256
00:14:01,008 --> 00:14:03,051
I mean, given the choice, wouldn't you want to be immune?

257
00:14:03,218 --> 00:14:06,180
Not if it meant the lives
the Wraith might otherwise spare.

258
00:14:07,055 --> 00:14:11,226
This drug would only be of value if everyone,

259
00:14:11,226 --> 00:14:13,729
everywhere, possessed the same immunity.

260
00:14:14,062 --> 00:14:16,565
There's a thought worth pursuing.

261
00:14:16,940 --> 00:14:17,482
I agree.

262
00:14:18,442 --> 00:14:21,570
Major, have you made any progress with your prisoner?

263
00:14:21,695 --> 00:14:24,031
Well, not yet, but he just blinked.

264
00:14:24,698 --> 00:14:25,490
He blinked?

265
00:14:25,616 --> 00:14:26,909
What does that mean?

266
00:14:27,367 --> 00:14:29,161
It means he's still holding on

267
00:14:29,161 --> 00:14:31,705
but he's indicated to me that he may break soon.

268
00:14:31,830 --> 00:14:33,123
And he indicated this to you by...

269
00:14:33,123 --> 00:14:34,374
blinking?

270
00:14:34,541 --> 00:14:35,542
Yes.

271
00:14:36,335 --> 00:14:39,421
No offence, Major,
but so far he hasn't told you a thing.

272
00:14:39,463 --> 00:14:40,881
For all we know he could linger

273
00:14:40,923 --> 00:14:42,716
this way for months and ultimately

274
00:14:42,966 --> 00:14:44,843
we'll learn nothing.

275
00:14:44,885 --> 00:14:47,554
The Wraith could be on their way to Hoff as we speak.

276
00:14:47,596 --> 00:14:51,308
If your prisoner holds the key
to the creation of this drug,

277
00:14:52,226 --> 00:14:54,394
should we not take advantage of this?

278
00:14:54,436 --> 00:14:57,189
How can we get the sample off him safely?

279
00:14:57,231 --> 00:14:59,733
We still possess the weapons used in his capture.

280
00:14:59,775 --> 00:15:03,028
It would be a simple matter of incapacitating him again.

281
00:15:03,362 --> 00:15:04,279
So, then, it's possible?

282
00:15:04,571 --> 00:15:06,114
It's possible.

283
00:15:15,249 --> 00:15:16,542
Hi, Steve.

284
00:15:18,001 --> 00:15:19,419
Bye, Steve.

285
00:15:32,182 --> 00:15:33,517
Doctor.

286
00:15:34,685 --> 00:15:35,811
Is he...

287
00:15:36,770 --> 00:15:37,980
I mean, you're certain he's...

288
00:15:38,063 --> 00:15:38,897
He's down, Doc.

289
00:15:39,398 --> 00:15:40,566
Do your thing.

290
00:15:47,990 --> 00:15:49,575
Almost looks peaceful, doesn't he?

291
00:15:49,700 --> 00:15:50,325
Peaceful?!

292
00:15:50,701 --> 00:15:52,828
You're out of your bloody mind!

293
00:16:05,424 --> 00:16:08,093
I have never seen devices such as these!

294
00:16:08,552 --> 00:16:09,803
The work you've done refining

295
00:16:09,803 --> 00:16:11,638
the drug has been good up til now.

296
00:16:11,763 --> 00:16:15,184
With all this we can make it better.

297
00:16:17,019 --> 00:16:17,978
From what I can tell,

298
00:16:17,978 --> 00:16:20,731
your biggest problem is that the test inoculations

299
00:16:20,856 --> 00:16:22,107
failed to show enough of a presence

300
00:16:22,107 --> 00:16:24,318
in human cells to be effective.

301
00:16:24,401 --> 00:16:26,195
What we need is a better delivery system.

302
00:16:26,236 --> 00:16:26,945
Exactly.

303
00:16:26,945 --> 00:16:29,823
And the best place to start
is to recreate the key protein

304
00:16:29,907 --> 00:16:32,075
in the serum and work our way up from there.

305
00:16:32,159 --> 00:16:32,826
If we can avoid having

306
00:16:32,826 --> 00:16:34,661
to re-engineer it from a natural source,

307
00:16:34,745 --> 00:16:37,456
and make an entirely synthetic version,

308
00:16:37,456 --> 00:16:40,000
it should ultimately increase the efficiency.

309
00:16:40,167 --> 00:16:41,502
Such a thing is possible?

310
00:16:41,627 --> 00:16:44,838
Anything's possible if you're willing to give it a go.

311
00:16:46,006 --> 00:16:48,717
C'mon then, a bald head is soon shaved.

312
00:16:50,260 --> 00:16:52,429
You speak differently than the others.

313
00:16:53,805 --> 00:16:55,807
Noticed that, did you?!

314
00:16:56,225 --> 00:16:57,559
Sorry if I confuse you.

315
00:16:57,559 --> 00:17:01,522
Trust me, where I come from,
it all makes perfect sense.

316
00:17:01,647 --> 00:17:02,773
What is it like?

317
00:17:02,898 --> 00:17:05,317
Scotland? Oh, I think it's beautiful.

318
00:17:05,901 --> 00:17:08,320
But I'm told it's something of an acquired taste.

319
00:17:08,445 --> 00:17:09,363
I meant your world.

320
00:17:10,072 --> 00:17:11,782
It must be so peaceful there,

321
00:17:11,823 --> 00:17:13,408
knowing that the Wraith will not come.

322
00:17:13,534 --> 00:17:16,203
Oh, you'd be surprised how not peaceful it is.

323
00:17:18,288 --> 00:17:21,124
We're spoiled rotten, now that I think of it.

324
00:17:22,459 --> 00:17:23,085
You miss it.

325
00:17:23,126 --> 00:17:25,003
I'm sorry for enquiring.

326
00:17:25,087 --> 00:17:27,130
Oh, no, no. Don't be, love.

327
00:19:00,891 --> 00:19:01,934
Perna!

328
00:19:18,325 --> 00:19:20,035
One hundred percent cellular penetration

329
00:19:20,077 --> 00:19:21,787
in all five test inoculations.

330
00:19:21,829 --> 00:19:22,663
Incredible!

331
00:19:22,788 --> 00:19:24,414
There's still a lot of data to be analysed

332
00:19:24,414 --> 00:19:27,125
but the initial results are very promising, I agree.

333
00:19:27,251 --> 00:19:30,963
Doctor Beckett's efforts
have advanced the project by decades.

334
00:19:31,171 --> 00:19:33,173
Perna's formula was right on track.

335
00:19:33,298 --> 00:19:35,801
It was just a matter of changing its molecular design

336
00:19:35,801 --> 00:19:38,053
so it could be better absorbed by the body.

337
00:19:38,428 --> 00:19:40,973
This is an enormous victory for our people, Doctor.

338
00:19:41,056 --> 00:19:42,432
I don't know how to thank you.

339
00:19:42,558 --> 00:19:43,225
No need.

340
00:19:43,267 --> 00:19:45,894
Of course, it's only a preliminary.

341
00:19:46,436 --> 00:19:49,106
How soon until you can set up the next stage of testing?

342
00:19:49,231 --> 00:19:51,733
You'll have a schedule later today, Chancellor.

343
00:19:52,985 --> 00:19:54,945
I'm sorry next stage?

344
00:19:55,070 --> 00:19:56,572
Your report makes it abundantly clear that

345
00:19:56,572 --> 00:19:59,616
the project is ready to proceed to its next phase.

346
00:19:59,783 --> 00:20:03,120
We want to test the serum's
effectiveness against your prisoner.

347
00:20:11,503 --> 00:20:13,172
And you support this?

348
00:20:13,297 --> 00:20:14,965
Well, I know for certain he's gonna die

349
00:20:15,007 --> 00:20:16,508
so we might as well make good use of him

350
00:20:16,550 --> 00:20:18,051
while he's still alive.

351
00:20:18,177 --> 00:20:20,304
You do understand the Geneva Convention

352
00:20:20,304 --> 00:20:24,141
prohibits using prisoners for scientific experiments?

353
00:20:24,183 --> 00:20:25,934
No offence, Doc, but had the Wraith

354
00:20:25,976 --> 00:20:28,103
attended the Geneva Convention,

355
00:20:28,228 --> 00:20:30,731
they would have tried to feed on everyone there.

356
00:20:32,316 --> 00:20:35,110
Beckett's report indicates that we have no idea

357
00:20:35,194 --> 00:20:37,654
what the long-term effect
of this drug on humans might be.

358
00:20:37,696 --> 00:20:39,031
Well, we know damn well what

359
00:20:39,072 --> 00:20:41,283
the long-term effects of Wraith culling are, don't we?

360
00:20:41,408 --> 00:20:42,826
We're talking about putting a human being

361
00:20:42,826 --> 00:20:45,537
in the same room as a starving Wraith.

362
00:20:46,163 --> 00:20:47,789
Now once we start down that road...

363
00:20:47,915 --> 00:20:50,250
Which road did you think we were headed down?

364
00:20:50,292 --> 00:20:51,210
Not this one.

365
00:20:52,294 --> 00:20:54,379
At least not this fast.

366
00:20:55,255 --> 00:20:59,384
Having spent time with the prisoner, I don't pity him.

367
00:20:59,551 --> 00:21:01,678
He's gonna die anyway.

368
00:21:04,598 --> 00:21:06,892
This drug could be useful some day.

369
00:21:07,017 --> 00:21:08,393
Some day.

370
00:21:08,685 --> 00:21:12,272
The point is, we don't get
a lot of opportunities like this.

371
00:21:12,523 --> 00:21:14,608
Do you know how obsessed with this the Hoffans are

372
00:21:14,608 --> 00:21:17,528
when they found out we had a live Wraith prisoner?

373
00:21:18,570 --> 00:21:21,073
He's going to die.

374
00:21:21,573 --> 00:21:23,075
I've tried to feed him all sorts of life stuff

375
00:21:23,075 --> 00:21:25,702
but apparently there's only one item on his menu.

376
00:21:26,537 --> 00:21:27,454
What about the test subject?

377
00:21:28,205 --> 00:21:29,540
If the drug fails...

378
00:21:29,665 --> 00:21:31,792
We're not just grabbing anybody off the street.

379
00:21:31,959 --> 00:21:34,419
The test subject is a terminally ill

380
00:21:34,461 --> 00:21:36,505
patient who has volunteered himself.

381
00:21:38,215 --> 00:21:40,425
These are not exactly the type of decisions

382
00:21:40,425 --> 00:21:43,387
I was expecting to make on this expedition.

383
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:56,608
Do it.

384
00:22:09,830 --> 00:22:10,998
Hi, Steve.

385
00:22:11,915 --> 00:22:13,834
More samples?

386
00:22:13,917 --> 00:22:16,712
I was thinking more along the lines of a field trip.

387
00:22:17,004 --> 00:22:18,088
You want sustenance?

388
00:22:18,839 --> 00:22:20,674
I want information.

389
00:22:23,177 --> 00:22:26,763
You are incapable of offering such a trade.

390
00:22:27,514 --> 00:22:32,144
You tell me something of value, I let you eat.

391
00:22:32,352 --> 00:22:33,312
That's the deal.

392
00:22:33,437 --> 00:22:35,856
Take it or leave it.

393
00:22:39,943 --> 00:22:41,486
Very well.

394
00:22:51,246 --> 00:22:52,706
Are they ready?

395
00:22:53,123 --> 00:22:56,793
Major Sheppard and Lieutenant Ford
are loading the prisoner into Jumper Two.

396
00:22:56,793 --> 00:22:58,795
Sergeant bates is already on the ground

397
00:22:58,837 --> 00:23:02,883
and standing by for their arrival
at the rendezvous site.

398
00:23:20,984 --> 00:23:22,152
Jumper Two, this is Weir.

399
00:23:22,236 --> 00:23:23,278
What's your status?

400
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:24,071
Nice and cosy in here.

401
00:23:24,112 --> 00:23:25,948
We're ready to depart.

402
00:23:25,989 --> 00:23:27,199
Be safe, Major.

403
00:23:27,574 --> 00:23:28,909
That's the plan.

404
00:23:29,201 --> 00:23:31,119
Jumper Two, you are go for launch.

405
00:23:31,161 --> 00:23:32,329
Roger that.

406
00:23:33,664 --> 00:23:35,082
Dial it up.

407
00:23:41,296 --> 00:23:43,590
Hey, man, this isn't supposed to be fun.

408
00:24:04,194 --> 00:24:06,738
Perna explained to me about your illness.

409
00:24:07,531 --> 00:24:09,867
I want you to know how sorry I am.

410
00:24:10,742 --> 00:24:12,995
I wish there was something I could do for you.

411
00:24:13,662 --> 00:24:14,955
It's my time, Doctor Beckett.

412
00:24:15,914 --> 00:24:18,083
I'm at peace with my fate.

413
00:24:19,168 --> 00:24:21,086
I think it's important you know

414
00:24:21,253 --> 00:24:24,840
that we may be talking about a
less than peaceful ending here.

415
00:24:24,965 --> 00:24:28,719
I have explained to Merell in
great detail what may befall him.

416
00:24:30,554 --> 00:24:33,640
You should also understand
that this drug has never worked

417
00:24:33,724 --> 00:24:36,351
in anything other than a laboratory simulation.

418
00:24:36,935 --> 00:24:39,104
We don't know for certain what will happen.

419
00:24:40,189 --> 00:24:41,648
Even if it doesn't work,

420
00:24:42,608 --> 00:24:43,859
you'll learn something of value

421
00:24:46,028 --> 00:24:48,071
how to perfect it in the future?

422
00:24:48,947 --> 00:24:53,577
Possibly, but that's no reason
for you to face that creature.

423
00:24:55,204 --> 00:24:57,539
Doctor Beckett, I'm not afraid.

424
00:24:58,707 --> 00:25:01,585
No matter what happens, my death will have meaning.

425
00:25:03,378 --> 00:25:05,214
Is that not something we all strive for,

426
00:25:05,339 --> 00:25:07,341
to die knowing we made a difference?

427
00:25:09,134 --> 00:25:10,802
I want to do this.

428
00:25:11,845 --> 00:25:14,765
Please don't deny me the chance to help my people.

429
00:25:24,566 --> 00:25:25,817
What do you think?

430
00:25:26,068 --> 00:25:27,986
That it goes against everything I believe in.

431
00:25:28,153 --> 00:25:31,323
There's an oath among medical people where I come from.

432
00:25:31,448 --> 00:25:33,408
It begins, First, do no harm.

433
00:25:34,076 --> 00:25:37,371
- Important words to you.
- More than words, Perna.

434
00:25:38,539 --> 00:25:41,750
The battle rages at the very
threshold of our laboratory now.

435
00:25:42,251 --> 00:25:44,253
Those of us working to the last know

436
00:25:44,294 --> 00:25:46,797
that these few final hours have been dearly purchased,

437
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,675
yet our concentration has not waned.

438
00:25:50,300 --> 00:25:52,219
We cannot hope to save ourselves

439
00:25:52,261 --> 00:25:55,097
but we can hope that one last insight,

440
00:25:55,180 --> 00:25:58,308
one last revelation before we take our dying breaths,

441
00:25:58,433 --> 00:26:02,437
may prevent this terrible day from happening again.

442
00:26:02,729 --> 00:26:04,898
Ferrel's last journal entry.

443
00:26:05,524 --> 00:26:07,609
More than words, Carson.

444
00:26:07,860 --> 00:26:08,694
I understand that.

445
00:26:09,069 --> 00:26:09,611
I do.

446
00:26:09,778 --> 00:26:11,238
But there are too many unknowns.

447
00:26:11,321 --> 00:26:12,781
We need time to determine the possible side-effects...

448
00:26:12,865 --> 00:26:13,949
There is no time!

449
00:26:14,741 --> 00:26:16,785
Are you so afraid of making a mistake

450
00:26:16,869 --> 00:26:19,454
that you can no longer see what we're up against?

451
00:26:19,580 --> 00:26:22,207
This isn't about making mistakes Perna,

452
00:26:22,249 --> 00:26:24,710
it's about the end justifying the means,

453
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,796
and in our profession that's a very slippery slope.

454
00:26:29,548 --> 00:26:31,633
We have no idea if this'll work.

455
00:26:32,134 --> 00:26:35,053
We could be sacrificing that man to a monster.

456
00:26:35,679 --> 00:26:37,973
There will be another to take his place.

457
00:26:39,850 --> 00:26:41,727
That's just what I'm afraid of.

458
00:26:48,692 --> 00:26:49,943
They are ready.

459
00:26:54,573 --> 00:26:56,033
Careful, sir.

460
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,797
This is the sustenance you promised?

461
00:27:10,839 --> 00:27:13,425
Little change in plans.

462
00:27:14,092 --> 00:27:18,847
You tell me something right now,
or the damned party's cancelled.

463
00:27:19,056 --> 00:27:20,516
What do you want to know?

464
00:27:20,849 --> 00:27:22,893
How many hive ships have become operational

465
00:27:22,935 --> 00:27:24,978
since we awakened the first one?

466
00:27:25,145 --> 00:27:27,272
All of them, Major Sheppard.

467
00:27:27,564 --> 00:27:32,569
First, they will travel to their own
feeding grounds and gather strength.

468
00:27:33,195 --> 00:27:35,447
We are a patient race, Major.

469
00:27:36,281 --> 00:27:39,785
When we have taken our fill and gathered our strength,

470
00:27:40,118 --> 00:27:43,789
we will join force and come for you.

471
00:27:43,872 --> 00:27:45,666
D'you have any idea when that'll be?

472
00:27:45,916 --> 00:27:46,500
Morning?

473
00:27:46,542 --> 00:27:48,126
Afternoon?

474
00:27:51,755 --> 00:27:52,881
Open it up.

475
00:28:05,269 --> 00:28:07,020
You don't have to do this.

476
00:28:08,438 --> 00:28:08,939
I know.

477
00:28:11,817 --> 00:28:13,110
I'm ready.

478
00:28:40,804 --> 00:28:42,556
He is weak.

479
00:29:30,646 --> 00:29:33,148
You are both heroes of the Hoffan people.

480
00:29:33,649 --> 00:29:35,484
I'll admit, it was amazing.

481
00:29:36,068 --> 00:29:37,694
I hope your friends will join us for

482
00:29:37,736 --> 00:29:39,571
a celebratory banquet to honour your work.

483
00:29:39,947 --> 00:29:41,114
We'll be glad to attend, but don't you

484
00:29:41,156 --> 00:29:43,325
think celebrations are a bit premature?

485
00:29:43,534 --> 00:29:45,619
The results speak for themselves.

486
00:29:45,869 --> 00:29:47,788
I intend to ask the Council to approve

487
00:29:47,830 --> 00:29:50,082
mass production of the serum, effective immediately.

488
00:29:50,165 --> 00:29:53,210
After what happened today,
I doubt they will offer any resistance.

489
00:29:53,293 --> 00:29:55,087
That is wonderful news, Chancellor.

490
00:29:55,170 --> 00:29:56,797
With all due respect, no it isn't.

491
00:29:57,214 --> 00:29:59,174
We're talking about one test here.

492
00:29:59,675 --> 00:30:02,094
Now I'm as pleased as anyone with the results

493
00:30:02,302 --> 00:30:03,679
but we still have a lot of work to do

494
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:05,347
before we can start using it.

495
00:30:05,556 --> 00:30:09,017
Doctor Beckett wishes to run a full series of tests

496
00:30:09,142 --> 00:30:12,020
on Merell prior to issuing his final report.

497
00:30:12,145 --> 00:30:13,355
There may have been mitigating circumstances

498
00:30:13,397 --> 00:30:15,315
the man was dying, for one.

499
00:30:17,109 --> 00:30:17,651
Of course.

500
00:30:18,068 --> 00:30:19,403
I'll bring it up with Council.

501
00:30:20,404 --> 00:30:22,114
To success.

502
00:30:25,951 --> 00:30:26,743
What is it?

503
00:30:26,869 --> 00:30:28,829
It's Steve he doesn't look so good.

504
00:30:31,790 --> 00:30:33,417
How long has he been like this?

505
00:30:33,876 --> 00:30:34,960
Since the test.

506
00:30:35,002 --> 00:30:36,253
Think it's a ruse?

507
00:30:36,420 --> 00:30:37,963
It is not their way.

508
00:30:44,011 --> 00:30:44,636
Hey.

509
00:30:46,847 --> 00:30:48,432
What have you done to me?

510
00:31:05,699 --> 00:31:07,117
We need Beckett in here.

511
00:31:07,159 --> 00:31:08,202
Go.

512
00:31:15,334 --> 00:31:16,793
We're gonna help you.

513
00:31:19,671 --> 00:31:21,590
Don't feel pity for me.

514
00:31:23,217 --> 00:31:26,762
You will suffer far worse when the others come for you.

515
00:31:50,327 --> 00:31:50,953
Major.

516
00:31:51,787 --> 00:31:53,664
I was just about to cut him open.

517
00:31:54,122 --> 00:31:56,208
Then, I was just leaving.

518
00:31:56,542 --> 00:32:00,045
I've already done a series of tests
you might like to know the results of.

519
00:32:00,546 --> 00:32:01,839
You know what killed him?

520
00:32:01,964 --> 00:32:03,632
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say

521
00:32:03,757 --> 00:32:07,302
that it was all of his vital organs
shutting down almost simultaneously.

522
00:32:07,553 --> 00:32:08,887
Did he starve to death?

523
00:32:09,012 --> 00:32:09,638
No.

524
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,557
Based on the condition his body's in,

525
00:32:11,682 --> 00:32:13,642
I don't think he died from a lack of nourishment.

526
00:32:13,684 --> 00:32:14,852
Well, then, what was it?

527
00:32:14,893 --> 00:32:16,854
Initial tests revealed a significant amount

528
00:32:16,895 --> 00:32:18,689
of Hoffan serum in his bloodstream.

529
00:32:18,897 --> 00:32:21,358
I'm guessing we'll find similar trace amounts

530
00:32:21,483 --> 00:32:23,819
in each of his organs once we analyse those as well.

531
00:32:23,902 --> 00:32:26,613
Why did the Hoffan drug end up in his blood?

532
00:32:26,822 --> 00:32:28,407
From the Hoffans' research,

533
00:32:28,448 --> 00:32:30,200
we know that when the Wraith feed,

534
00:32:30,284 --> 00:32:32,828
they release a chemical into their victims' bodies.

535
00:32:32,995 --> 00:32:35,581
What it actually does, we don't yet understand,

536
00:32:35,914 --> 00:32:38,542
but I can only assume that it prepares the human body

537
00:32:38,625 --> 00:32:41,086
in some way to be drained of life.

538
00:32:41,128 --> 00:32:42,796
The serum is designed

539
00:32:42,838 --> 00:32:46,049
to shield the victim from that
initial chemical release, blocking it.

540
00:32:46,341 --> 00:32:47,301
OK.

541
00:32:48,135 --> 00:32:50,512
I think the serum protein may have mutated

542
00:32:50,554 --> 00:32:51,930
when it was exposed to the Wraith chemical,

543
00:32:51,972 --> 00:32:54,266
triggering some sort of toxic reaction.

544
00:32:54,266 --> 00:32:55,767
So instead of feeding off of him...

545
00:32:55,851 --> 00:32:57,728
...he was poisoned.

546
00:32:58,854 --> 00:33:00,731
So if the serum did this,

547
00:33:00,772 --> 00:33:03,650
then it's more than just a defence against the Wraith.

548
00:33:04,568 --> 00:33:06,153
It kills 'em.

549
00:33:07,613 --> 00:33:09,698
I fail to see cause for alarm, Major.

550
00:33:09,740 --> 00:33:13,410
If anything, this development dramatically
increases the value of the serum.

551
00:33:13,535 --> 00:33:15,287
No it just takes away any doubt

552
00:33:15,370 --> 00:33:17,956
about what the Wraith'll do
when they eventually come here.

553
00:33:18,665 --> 00:33:20,250
I fail to see the difference.

554
00:33:20,417 --> 00:33:22,586
Once they learn you possess a weapon such as this,

555
00:33:22,669 --> 00:33:27,216
the Wraith will wipe your people from
existence in retaliation for the Wraith deaths.

556
00:33:27,341 --> 00:33:30,886
Or they may simply leave us
alone once they learn we are...

557
00:33:31,386 --> 00:33:32,554
unpalatable.

558
00:33:32,638 --> 00:33:36,099
Cos they're such an easy-going
live-and-let-live kind of race.

559
00:33:36,391 --> 00:33:37,684
Y'know, maybe there was half a chance

560
00:33:37,726 --> 00:33:38,810
of that when you were talking

561
00:33:38,852 --> 00:33:40,437
about this being defensive, but now...

562
00:33:40,479 --> 00:33:42,648
You fail to see the larger picture, Major.

563
00:33:42,689 --> 00:33:44,233
For the first time we have a way to not

564
00:33:44,274 --> 00:33:46,735
just defend ourselves but to strike back.

565
00:33:46,777 --> 00:33:49,321
Is this about revenge, or saving your people?

566
00:33:51,573 --> 00:33:54,660
You can't hope to understand
the generations of suffering...

567
00:33:54,743 --> 00:33:57,704
I've been in one of their hives and
I've fought against their ships and,

568
00:33:57,788 --> 00:34:01,208
trust me, when the first Wraith
dies because of this drug,

569
00:34:01,291 --> 00:34:02,876
they're not gonna simply move on.

570
00:34:03,001 --> 00:34:05,087
They're gonna make their problem go away.

571
00:34:05,212 --> 00:34:06,839
Once your world has been destroyed,

572
00:34:06,964 --> 00:34:09,424
they will seek out any who have had contact with you.

573
00:34:09,508 --> 00:34:11,009
They will spare no-one.

574
00:34:11,134 --> 00:34:12,845
Listen, I know how passionate you are about this

575
00:34:12,886 --> 00:34:15,138
this drug is sort of your Holy Grail, but...

576
00:34:15,597 --> 00:34:18,809
You're gonna have to shelve it
till we get a better idea...

577
00:34:18,934 --> 00:34:19,852
No, no.

578
00:34:19,977 --> 00:34:24,439
I'm serious otherwise we can't help you any more.

579
00:34:24,606 --> 00:34:27,359
You don't understand, Major, it's too late.

580
00:34:28,151 --> 00:34:31,363
I have made my recommendation
to the Council and they've agreed.

581
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:35,367
We have already begun inoculating our people.

582
00:34:54,094 --> 00:34:55,429
You are leaving?

583
00:34:56,972 --> 00:34:58,599
Unless you're willing to go back to formal work

584
00:34:58,682 --> 00:35:00,350
on the serum there's no point my staying, is there?

585
00:35:00,392 --> 00:35:02,769
- Carson
- Perna, you need to re-open the project.

586
00:35:02,936 --> 00:35:03,562
With more work,

587
00:35:03,604 --> 00:35:05,272
maybe you could prevent the mutation

588
00:35:05,355 --> 00:35:07,232
maintain it as a defensive drug only.

589
00:35:07,357 --> 00:35:08,108
Merell is dead.

590
00:35:10,027 --> 00:35:11,278
They found him this morning.

591
00:35:11,361 --> 00:35:13,322
The cause of death is still to be determined.

592
00:35:13,363 --> 00:35:15,365
There's still time they need to stop the inoculations.

593
00:35:15,407 --> 00:35:17,075
- They won't.
- A man is dead.

594
00:35:17,117 --> 00:35:19,620
Which doesn't necessarily mean more will follow.

595
00:35:21,830 --> 00:35:26,543
Even if I wanted to, I couldn't make
them stop, not without more proof.

596
00:35:28,337 --> 00:35:32,591
Perna you're one of the brightest people I've ever met.

597
00:35:33,008 --> 00:35:36,220
For your own sake, I beg you,

598
00:35:37,012 --> 00:35:38,680
have no more part in this,

599
00:35:39,515 --> 00:35:41,517
at least until we know more.

600
00:35:44,144 --> 00:35:45,687
I can't do that.

601
00:35:45,729 --> 00:35:46,772
Why not?

602
00:35:46,813 --> 00:35:49,650
Because I was among the first to be inoculated.

603
00:35:56,657 --> 00:35:58,700
I appreciate your sense of urgency, Doctor,

604
00:35:58,826 --> 00:36:02,120
but at this point it would be
unwise to rush to any conclusions.

605
00:36:02,204 --> 00:36:03,956
Now you wanna exercise caution?

606
00:36:03,997 --> 00:36:04,998
Are you serious?!

607
00:36:05,332 --> 00:36:09,336
Major, you yourself have told us the Wraith
could be on their way here right now.

608
00:36:09,419 --> 00:36:11,296
We have no choice but to move forward.

609
00:36:11,338 --> 00:36:14,091
You're speaking on behalf
of a lot of people, Chancellor.

610
00:36:14,174 --> 00:36:16,844
You think I would force this choice upon my own people?

611
00:36:17,427 --> 00:36:20,138
No, sir, our people are in complete agreement.

612
00:36:20,305 --> 00:36:24,518
Your people may be dead before the Wraith
even get here for all you know.

613
00:36:24,726 --> 00:36:27,229
Chancellor, please, it's not too late.

614
00:36:27,312 --> 00:36:30,232
Suspend the inoculations at least
until we know what killed Merell.

615
00:36:30,357 --> 00:36:31,066
He was terminal.

616
00:36:31,108 --> 00:36:33,902
We don't know for certain
the serum played any part in his death.

617
00:36:33,986 --> 00:36:36,780
He suffered a sudden and
complete respiratory breakdown.

618
00:36:36,989 --> 00:36:38,907
Which could well have been due to his condition.

619
00:36:38,991 --> 00:36:41,160
His sickness had spread through most of his body.

620
00:36:41,326 --> 00:36:43,412
Are you willing to risk thousands of people's lives

621
00:36:43,453 --> 00:36:45,956
based on that assumption, because I'm not!

622
00:36:47,416 --> 00:36:48,250
Major Sheppard?

623
00:36:48,375 --> 00:36:49,751
Go ahead, Teyla.

624
00:36:50,002 --> 00:36:51,128
We're in the medical centre.

625
00:36:51,170 --> 00:36:52,254
We need help.

626
00:37:06,018 --> 00:37:07,144
My God!

627
00:37:10,689 --> 00:37:11,315
Major Sheppard.

628
00:37:12,357 --> 00:37:14,234
The doctors say they began arriving last night,

629
00:37:14,359 --> 00:37:15,944
and their numbers have been increasing by the hour.

630
00:37:16,028 --> 00:37:16,528
Major.

631
00:37:16,653 --> 00:37:17,738
I'm on it go.

632
00:37:17,946 --> 00:37:19,656
Lieutenant, radio Weir, tell 'em we need

633
00:37:19,698 --> 00:37:22,659
a full medical support team
on a Jumper and inbound ASAP.

634
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,345
I need help here!

635
00:37:41,386 --> 00:37:42,304
Oxygen!

636
00:37:43,597 --> 00:37:44,848
Take it easy.

637
00:38:00,322 --> 00:38:01,406
Leave us.

638
00:38:03,909 --> 00:38:05,994
D'you have any idea what's going on out there?

639
00:38:06,036 --> 00:38:07,162
I do, Major.

640
00:38:07,204 --> 00:38:09,498
Half the people you gave that drug to are dying.

641
00:38:09,540 --> 00:38:11,291
Half of them, Major, half.

642
00:38:12,417 --> 00:38:13,752
The statistics are clear

643
00:38:13,877 --> 00:38:16,380
and the numbers are holding at
that level, it's just been confirmed,

644
00:38:16,505 --> 00:38:20,050
which means the other fifty percen
of those we inoculated will live,

645
00:38:20,217 --> 00:38:22,761
and destroy any Wraith who try to feed on them.

646
00:38:23,387 --> 00:38:24,847
I don't believe this!

647
00:38:24,888 --> 00:38:28,225
Now the Wraith will know the full
conviction of the Hoffan people.

648
00:38:28,350 --> 00:38:29,560
Conviction?!

649
00:38:29,768 --> 00:38:31,478
Do you realise that if we could spread

650
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:33,730
this drug to every human in the galaxy,

651
00:38:33,814 --> 00:38:35,357
future generations would never

652
00:38:35,399 --> 00:38:36,900
know the horror of a culling.

653
00:38:37,943 --> 00:38:41,363
You're deliberately sacrificing millions of lives.

654
00:38:41,488 --> 00:38:42,948
An end to the Wraith!

655
00:38:44,908 --> 00:38:47,244
You can't comprehend the bargain in that?

656
00:38:47,327 --> 00:38:50,455
You can't make a bargain lik
that for your entire people!

657
00:38:50,539 --> 00:38:52,374
Do you think I'm alone in this conviction?

658
00:38:52,416 --> 00:38:54,126
I think you're delusional!

659
00:38:54,251 --> 00:38:54,877
You shall see.

660
00:38:55,294 --> 00:38:57,838
We are putting it to a vote as we speak.

661
00:38:58,130 --> 00:39:01,508
I will stand by the decision of the majority.

662
00:39:02,342 --> 00:39:04,219
Does that satisfy you?

663
00:39:04,261 --> 00:39:06,930
Do they have any idea what they're voting on?

664
00:39:08,140 --> 00:39:09,516
Yes.

665
00:39:09,683 --> 00:39:11,226
I promise you.

666
00:39:11,476 --> 00:39:13,812
And you'll back off if it doesn't go your way?

667
00:39:13,896 --> 00:39:15,522
You have my word.

668
00:39:23,405 --> 00:39:25,240
Use whatever rooms you need for overflow.

669
00:39:25,365 --> 00:39:27,659
We need to keep this area clear for triage.

670
00:39:33,290 --> 00:39:34,875
Teyla, there you are.

671
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,961
Make sure that our oxygen is properly
deployed throughout the hospital.

672
00:39:38,045 --> 00:39:38,629
Doctor.

673
00:39:38,754 --> 00:39:40,756
Have non-critical patients use it in turns

674
00:39:40,797 --> 00:39:43,008
just long enough to stabilise their breathing.

675
00:39:44,009 --> 00:39:45,093
Teyla, what are you doing here?

676
00:39:45,135 --> 00:39:46,053
You're not listening to me.

677
00:39:46,094 --> 00:39:47,930
Now where's Perna?
I need her here.

678
00:39:47,971 --> 00:39:48,972
Carson.

679
00:40:11,370 --> 00:40:13,997
I would... like to have seen Atlantis.

680
00:40:16,792 --> 00:40:17,543
Perna.

681
00:40:18,043 --> 00:40:19,795
I'm so sorry.

682
00:40:22,381 --> 00:40:23,549
Don't be.

683
00:40:25,926 --> 00:40:28,220
I am at peace with what
I have done,

684
00:40:29,388 --> 00:40:31,515
as you should be.

685
00:40:32,599 --> 00:40:34,810
I wish I'd had no part in this.

686
00:40:35,644 --> 00:40:37,855
You gave us hope.

687
00:40:40,148 --> 00:40:44,111
For... years, our people have been working...

688
00:40:44,153 --> 00:40:44,945
towards this...

689
00:40:46,238 --> 00:40:47,656
very moment.

690
00:40:52,035 --> 00:40:55,706
We didn't betray the forefathers.

691
00:40:55,914 --> 00:41:01,003
We have fulfilled their destiny, their promise.

692
00:41:02,004 --> 00:41:03,046
Aye.

693
00:41:10,012 --> 00:41:11,138
Stay.

694
00:41:11,722 --> 00:41:12,890
Stay.

695
00:41:35,662 --> 00:41:37,331
- You OK?
- Aye.

696
00:41:42,711 --> 00:41:44,129
I am told you are leaving.

697
00:41:44,630 --> 00:41:45,756
Yes, we are.

698
00:41:45,923 --> 00:41:48,425
Not that it hasn't been... lovely.

699
00:41:49,051 --> 00:41:52,221
I wanted you to see the results
of the vote before you left.

700
00:41:59,478 --> 00:42:01,522
Ninety-six percent in favour.

701
00:42:02,272 --> 00:42:03,982
Does the vote include all your people?

702
00:42:04,066 --> 00:42:05,442
Every one.

703
00:42:05,442 --> 00:42:09,988
So you see, Major, we speak with one voice,
and we are resolute.

704
00:42:10,030 --> 00:42:10,697
Yeah.

705
00:42:10,864 --> 00:42:11,907
I can see that.

706
00:42:12,991 --> 00:42:15,202
When next we meet, I would like to discuss the best way

707
00:42:15,327 --> 00:42:17,913
to disseminate the drug on as many worlds as possible.

708
00:42:18,121 --> 00:42:20,415
We won't be doing that any time soon.

709
00:42:20,624 --> 00:42:22,960
Perhaps our victory will change your mind.

710
00:42:23,001 --> 00:42:27,172
If and when we ever return,
I don't imagine you'll be here.

711
00:42:28,173 --> 00:42:31,093
I don't imagine anybody else will be, either.

712
00:42:41,353 --> 00:42:42,813
Good luck.

713
00:42:49,027 --> 00:42:50,571
"Victory at all costs".

714
00:42:50,612 --> 00:42:52,573
That sound familiar, Major?

715
00:42:53,240 --> 00:42:54,116
Churchill.

716
00:42:54,241 --> 00:42:54,658
Aye.

717
00:42:54,700 --> 00:42:57,494
Never thought I'd disagree.



9999
00:00:0,500 --> 00:00:2,00
