00:00So, what exactly are we going to see after this eclipse begins?
00:13I mean, it is black and it is a hole.
00:16Well, it might be a black hole.
00:19Okay, let me put that a different way.
00:22No, Daniel, you're right.
00:23You can't actually see it.
00:24Not the singularity itself.
00:26It's so massive, not even light can escape it.
00:28But during the totality phase of the eclipse, we should be able to see matter spiraling
00:32towards it.
00:33Actually, it's called the accretion disk.
00:36Well, I guess it's easy to understand why the local population would be afraid of something
00:40like it.
00:41What did you just say?
00:42It's just an astronomical term.
00:45You didn't think the colonel had a telescope on his roof just to look at the neighbors,
00:51did you?
00:57Not initially.
01:23Someone from SG-7 should have been here to greet us.
01:27They should be prepping the telescope for the big show.
01:31Oh, God.
01:35All right, mop floor.
01:43All right, Daniel?
01:53You and Teal, check the village.
01:58See why no one's missed this guy.
02:03Where everyone else is.
02:06We've got the observatory.
02:09All right, move out.
02:12All right, move out.
02:15Where everyone else is.
02:17We've got the observatory.
02:19All right, move out.
02:45Where is everyone?
03:03Found them.
03:04My God.
03:08Dad!
03:10Dad!
03:13They're all dead.
03:15Everyone.
03:44Dad!
03:46Dad!
03:47Dad!
03:48Dad!
03:49Dad!

04:08Dad!
04:09Dad!
04:10Dad!
04:11Dad!
04:12Dad!
04:29This complex has been totally decontaminated.
04:37How many dead?
04:38We estimate about a thousand.
04:40Why didn't they send a message some morning this was happening?
04:43We don't know. Looks like all this happened very quickly.
04:46Now, there may still be survivors out there. Shouldn't we be looking for them?
04:49No. Not until I examine you. We'll use the barracks room.
04:52Colonel, you said you touched one of the victims before putting on gloves?
04:55Yeah, but I washed my hands right away.
04:57No. You were first.
05:10Allergies, right? Right?
05:14Right.
05:22We're supposed to tag the bodies we find with these.
05:26They knew this would happen.
05:28The indigenous people?
05:30They told me when we came here three months ago that with the darkness would come the apocalypse.
05:34It was part of their mythology.
05:36And what did we tell them? It's just an eclipse and there's nothing to worry about.
05:40Come on.
06:04Hello?
06:07It looks okay. You can come out.
06:09I know I must look pretty scary in this mask, but I'm not going to hurt you. It's okay.
06:16Colonel, there's someone in the bushes and they won't come out.
06:22Show them your face.
06:25Try to look friendly.
06:37Come on.
06:46We will not hurt you.
06:49Please come out.
06:56Take my hand.
06:58It's okay.
07:04It is okay.
07:21It's okay. Don't worry. Everything's going to be fine.
07:25Can you hear me?
07:28You're very brave.
07:31Can I take this mask off?
07:33I think it'll be okay. Looks like we're dealing with a bacteria infection. Just don't get too close.
07:41There. That's better, huh?
07:44You feel like telling me your name now?
07:48That's okay. You remember my name?
07:52Samantha Carter. But you can call me Sam.
08:02Oh, no, no, no, honey.
08:06You're not going to die.
08:09Why don't you just lay down and rest for a while, okay?
08:21Okay.
08:25This can't be.
08:28She's infected, isn't she?
08:30No, she's not.
08:31Well, what's wrong then?
08:33There are traces of the element the Stargate is made of in her blood.
08:36Naquida?
08:37Yeah. Now, it's possible that's the reason she was able to resist the infection.
08:42Thank you. You take a look.
08:45Let's see. Okay.
08:49Well, I have some bad news.
08:51The samples my team collected show the entire area to be contaminated.
08:54It's in the water and the ground.
08:56Now, the bacteria doesn't seem to be airborne,
08:58but it has a unique ability to survive in a variety of environments.
09:02Listen, um, I hate to sound self-centered here, but...
09:04Your tests are fine.
09:06What of the ghoul?
09:07No sign of infection, and as a precaution,
09:09I did an ultrasound to make sure she wasn't parasitically infested with the ghoul.
09:13So, she goes back with us.
09:15Doctor, would it be safe for someone to stay a little while longer?
09:18I mean, we're safe right now, aren't we?
09:21Captain?
09:23Sir, the eclipse happens in less than one day.
09:25This is our only opportunity to use this window of darkness
09:28to photograph the black hole with this telescope.
09:30It could change the course of human history.
09:33I don't want to belittle what's happened here,
09:35but if we just pack up and leave, SG-7 and all these people will have died for nothing.
09:40Well, you won't be staying.
09:45I will remain.
09:46I am not at risk.
09:48Yeah, I'll stay, too.
10:10Hey, you okay?
10:13Don't be afraid. I'll be holding your hand the whole way, all right?
10:16I know it looks kind of scary, but it's really a lot of fun.
10:28On three.
10:29One...
10:30Two...
10:31Three...
10:32Four...
10:33Five...
10:34Six...
10:35Seven...
10:36Eight...
10:37Nine...
10:38Ten...
10:39Eleven...
10:40Twelve...
10:41Thirteen...
10:42Fourteen...
10:43Fifteen...
10:44Sixteen...
10:45Seventeen...
10:46Eighteen...
10:47Nineteen...
10:48Twelve...
10:49Thirteen...
10:50One...
10:51Two...
10:52Three!
11:09Hey, it's okay. It's okay.
11:12It wasn't so bad, was it?
11:20Well, here we are.
11:26This is where you're going to stay for a little while, okay?
11:29I know it's nothing fancy, but we'll fix it up.
11:39I have to go somewhere for a little while.
11:41But I promise you I won't be gone long, okay?
11:48No, I have to go.
11:51But I'll be able to see you the whole time through that camera up there, see?
12:09All right. I'll stay for a little while.
12:29She seems to have bonded with Captain Carter.
12:32I can't blame her for being terrified.
12:34Believe me, it was not pretty over there.
12:36What happened?
12:38We counted 1,432 dead.
12:41I believe we may be indirectly responsible.
12:45How?
12:46It's possible someone from Earth brought a normally harmless bacteria to that planet.
12:50It learned some new traits from a local organism
12:52and mutated into the most deadly infectious strain I've ever encountered.
12:56Are you absolutely positive you haven't brought any of this disease back here with you?
12:59Yes, sir. In fact, I think we may have brought back the cure.
13:02Doctor?
13:05Doctor?
13:06Sir, somehow this little girl survived against all odds on a completely contaminated planet.
13:11I'm hoping she has some sort of natural immunity
13:13that we might use in fighting other serious infections already here on Earth.
13:17Why didn't the telescope team report that this outbreak was going on?
13:23We don't know.
13:35Let me see.
13:38Don't you want this?
13:40See, uh, we usually put some stuff on it like this.
13:49See?
13:54Mmm.
14:05Mmm.
14:31It's me, okay?
14:34You're not alone anymore.
14:47This is fun.
14:53Only eight hours to go.
14:55Sweet.
14:57I still do not understand this black hole.
15:02Well, a black hole is this really big thing.
15:07It's, uh...
15:09Basically, it's a massive hole out there.
15:23I see.
15:25Yeah, and what happens is everything gets sucked into it,
15:30even light.
15:32That's why we can't see it.
15:36It just gets sucked in.
15:43Thank you.
15:47Sure.
16:01Hey.
16:04How are you feeling?
16:07Listen, I have to go somewhere for a little while,
16:10but you're not gonna be alone.
16:12Daniel's gonna be here the whole time.
16:14Remember Daniel?
16:21You're very brave, remember?
16:24I'll be right back.
16:30I'll be back before you know it.
16:35Please don't go.
16:44You feel like telling me your name?
16:47Cassandra.
16:49Hi, Cassandra.
16:52I heard.
16:55Where?
17:01Sounds good. No fluid in her lungs?
17:04She described it more like a sharp, stabbing pain.
17:16I have no idea what to say or do.
17:18Her latest blood work shows a marked potassium deficiency.
17:21I have no idea what is causing it or how it could have gotten so low so quickly,
17:24but one of the effects can be arrhythmia.
17:26Now, you're sure she doesn't have the disease?
17:28Positive. These are not the symptoms of a bacterial infection.
17:35Okay. Thank you.
17:40All right. Let's go back to our room.
17:43Thank you. You're welcome.
17:48What? What? What is it?
17:50Get her on the table.
17:53What is it?
17:55She's got an irregular heartbeat. She's in a rest.
17:57Heartworms around! Heartworms around!
17:59What do I do?
18:06I've got a cardiac arousal, potassium deficiency.
18:08Get me a number 7 copped endotracheal tube now.
18:11Okay.
18:13Let's go.
18:15Dr. Hill, let's go.
18:17Okay. I'm going to set up a trip.
18:20Okay. I'm going to set up a trip.
18:24Give me a rope.
18:30Tube's ready.
18:32Tube's in.
18:34Defib. Stop CPR. Defib 60 joules.
18:36Come on. Come on.
18:38Check the monitor. Get the crash guard.
18:40Clear. Clear.
18:45Let me in. Let me in.
18:46Check the monitor. Check the monitor.
18:49I want you to notify the ICU.
18:51I want her potassium levels rechecked, stat.
18:53Get on it. Get on to the lab.
18:55Wait. Wait, wait, wait, wait.
18:57Oh, my God.
18:59What is it?
19:01Get me a chest x-ray, stat.
19:03I don't know. Listen.
19:20What is it?
19:22I don't know, but it wasn't there ten hours ago.
19:41I'm inserting the scope.
19:43Image up.
19:45I'm inserting the scope.
19:47Image up.
19:51Pulse normal.
19:53I'm advancing the scope.
20:07Pulse is rising.
20:12Adjusting view.
20:18Well, parts of it are definitely organic.
20:20I'm gonna move in closer and try to get a biopsy.
20:25Pulse is now 140.
20:32I'm scraping the harder surfaces for samples.
20:37We have to stop.
20:39Just a little more.
20:43Removing scope. Prepare the paddles.
20:48Charging.
20:52Clear.
20:54Wait, wait. Pulse is normal.
21:03Whatever this object is,
21:05it has the ability to stop her heart in an instant.
21:07Can you remove it?
21:09Doesn't look like it, not without killing her.
21:11Dr. Warner managed to get us some samples.
21:13I'm hoping the results of the analysis
21:15will tell us more about what this object is.
21:17Thank you, Doctor.
21:22Mom?
21:24Hey.
21:26You okay?
21:30I was dreaming about my mom.
21:38You miss your mom very much?
21:41I'm tired.
21:43Well, you should get some rest.
21:47Don't worry. Everything's gonna be just fine.
21:50And when you get better, I promise you,
21:52I am gonna show you all kinds of really wonderful things
21:54about this planet.
21:56Promise?
21:58You bet.
22:11How is she?
22:13She's fine. Sleeping.
22:15Um, if you want,
22:17I can sit with her tomorrow for a few hours.
22:19No, we're okay.
22:21Okay.
22:23I just...
22:26want to do this.
22:28Okay. But I guess what I'm saying is
22:30that you don't have to do this alone.
22:32I don't have to do this alone.
22:34I don't have to do this alone.
22:36I don't have to do this alone.
22:38I just want to say that you don't have to do this alone.
22:41Thanks.
22:54It's showtime.
23:00The systems are online.
23:09The Eclipse has reached its totality.
23:11Wow.
23:17The layer of fatty tissue
23:19between the two sides of the object is decaying.
23:21Very slowly, mind you, but still.
23:23What's the significance?
23:25I'm about to do an experiment to find out.
23:27One side of the object is made up
23:29of a combination of iron and potassium.
23:31The other side is made up of the element
23:33that makes up the Eclipse.
23:35Potassium.
23:37The other side is made up of the element
23:39that makes up the Stargate.
23:41What?
23:43I'm assuming it's the Naquada that was in her blood.
23:45Somehow the object is collecting it.
23:47Potassium can be one of the most
23:49volatile alkali metals on Earth,
23:51combined with even a small concentration of Naquada.
23:53That doesn't sound very good.
23:55The room you're looking at
23:57is in the sub-basement floor of this complex.
23:59It's lead-sealed.
24:01Let's see what happens when we put the two objects together.
24:03I'm only using a microscopic particle of each.
24:13The reading's off the scale.
24:15Gamma and particle radiation.
24:17Are we safe?
24:19Yeah, but we have a big problem.
24:21Well, if two microscopic particles could cause that...
24:23Then the object inside Cassandra
24:25could cause a nuclear reaction a million times bigger.
24:33What is that?
24:35A star, perhaps.
24:37Hit the zoom.
24:43That's way too close to be a star.
24:45Pull back.
24:47What is that?
24:49A star.
24:51Pull back.
24:53What is that?
24:55A star.
24:57Pull back.
24:59What is that?
25:01Pull back.
25:09What the hell is that?
25:13It is a Goa'uld attack vessel.
25:17It's a set-up.
25:19It has to be.
25:21The Goulds wiped out every last living person
25:23on that planet except Cassandra.
25:25And then they made us think that it was our fault
25:27because they knew we wouldn't leave her there.
25:29They knew we would bring her back here.
25:31And they used their technology
25:33to put that thing inside of her.
25:35It's like they designed a way for us to help them
25:37create the device after she came through the Stargate
25:39so we wouldn't detect it until it was too late.
25:41We gave her iron supplements.
25:43We may even have turned the device on
25:45with a jolt of electricity when we resuscitated her.
25:47You're saying it's meant to destroy us?
25:49At least this complex.
25:51The threat to the Goa'ulds, the Stargate.
25:53They used that little girl like a Trojan horse.
25:55How long do we have?
25:57An hour and 52 minutes.
25:59You can predict it that accurately?
26:01The cellular decay of the tissue
26:03Dr. Warner sampled
26:05appears to be happening like clockwork.
26:27How could they do this?
26:29Well, to a Goa'uld,
26:31she's not as we see her.
26:33She's a tool.
26:35Her death is a very cheap way
26:37to get rid of us.
26:39I know I am supposed to be detached.
26:43Who said that?
26:47Sometimes I forget
26:49you're not military.
26:51I'm not.
26:53Sometimes I forget
26:55you're not military.
26:59It's the ship of the Goa'uld, Newty.
27:01An enemy of Apophis.
27:07Now what the hell is that?
27:09We must go.
27:15Look, sir,
27:17I know this decision isn't easy for you.
27:19In fact, the decision is quite easy.
27:21The consequences are what's difficult.
27:23There has to be another way.
27:25I've been assured
27:27there's absolutely no way
27:29to remove the object from the girl
27:31without killing her.
27:33Therefore, we have no choice.
27:35According to Dr. Fraser's measurements
27:37of the device's atomic decay,
27:39we have one hour and 20 minutes left.
27:41The girl should be prepared
27:43to go back through the Stargate.
27:45I'll take her, sir.
27:47Along with SG-4.
27:49Sir, I want O'Neill and Till to return with you.
28:11We must get to the Stargate.
28:13No argument from me.
28:15This Goa'uld, Newty,
28:17he once sent an emissary of peace
28:19to negotiate a treaty concerning a Stargate
28:21Apophis had taken control of.
28:23The negotiation was a ploy.
28:25The Stargate was destroyed.
28:29How?
28:31As soon as he entered the Stargate,
28:33there was a massive explosion.
28:39Get down!
28:47It's okay.
29:03Chevron 3, encode it!
29:11Chevron 4, encode it!
29:13Sir?
29:17Ah!
29:23Take your time, don't worry.
29:25Chevron 5, encode it!
29:27What is it?
29:29She slipped into a coma.
29:31What?
29:33Chevron 60!
29:35What the hell?
29:39Close the app.
29:41No need, sir. We're getting an SG-1 remote signal.
29:47Open it!
29:57Get the girl away from the gate!
30:01So the Goa'ulds kept SG-7
30:03from coming back through to warn us.
30:05All part of the plan.
30:07So what are we going to do now?
30:09Tilk,
30:11Dr. Frazer says this device inside the girl
30:13is on some sort of timer.
30:15You're sure it will go off
30:17if we send the girl through the Stargate?
30:19We should not attempt it.
30:21The Earthgate is what the Goa'uld wants to destroy.
30:23Cassandra's condition deteriorated
30:25when she got near the Stargate.
30:27Well, I can't risk the security of this mountain.
30:29We'll have to take her somewhere else.
30:31What about the abandoned nuclear facility?
30:33Right.
30:35It's just 20 minutes away from here.
30:39This is Major General Hammond.
30:41Get me the Secretary of Defense immediately.
30:43Tell him it's a matter of life and death.
31:13Okay.
31:37I can take her from here now, Captain.
31:39No, sir. It's okay.
31:43This elevator goes down 30 floors through solid rock.
31:45Takes about three minutes to get to the bottom.
31:47That gives you four minutes to start back up.
32:13Where are we going?
32:17Please.
32:19Go back to sleep.
32:21I'm not tired anymore.
32:23Come here.
32:33Are you crying?
32:35I'm not crying.
32:37I'm not crying.
32:39I'm not crying.
32:41Are you crying?
33:11I'm not crying.
33:31Sit down here and rest for a while, okay?
33:41I have to go.
33:45You promised you'd never leave me alone.
33:53I'll come back, okay?
33:55I'll be back.
34:01You're very brave, remember?
34:05I'm very brave.
34:11Close the door.
34:31Sam?
34:37Sam?
34:41Sam?
35:11Sam?
35:27Jack, she's going back down.
35:29The hell she is.
35:33Captain Carter?
35:35Captain Carter?
35:37Sam, do you read me?
35:41Colonel, I'm staying.
35:43Negative.
35:45Colonel, she's awake.
35:47Oh, God.
35:53Captain Carter,
35:55I'm ordering you to get back up here right now.
36:01Right now.
36:03Right now.
36:07Are we going to die?
36:09No, we are not going to die.
36:19All right, why don't you guys clear out?
36:29All right.
36:33All right.
36:39I was very brave.
36:41I love you.
36:43I love you, too.
36:55All right, here we go.
37:03All right.
37:23I don't feel anything.
37:25We could have been wrong about the time.
37:27We could have been wrong about what would happen.
37:33Can you hear me?
37:39Sam?
37:41Can you hear me?
37:45We're okay.
37:47Nothing happened.
37:49Cassandra's fine. I'm fine.
37:51It didn't happen.
37:53I just...
37:55I couldn't leave her, sir.
37:59How did you know, Captain?
38:03It occurred to me that she first slipped into the coma
38:05when we brought her close to the Stargate.
38:07As soon as we got her far enough away from the Stargate,
38:09she woke up.
38:11And I knew.
38:15You knew?
38:33Get a little heavy for this.
38:37Cassandra!
38:39Hey, there he is.
38:49What's that?
38:51We have a rule here on Earth.
38:55Every kid has got to have a dog.
38:57This is a dog.
38:59And he's yours.
39:13So, how sure were you, really?
39:17I can't explain it, Daniel.
39:19I just knew.
39:21A mother's instinct, perhaps.
39:23Subtle, but no.
39:25Dr. Frasier's going to take her
39:27until we can find qualified parents.
39:29By qualified, you mean ones with the right security clearance.
39:31Yeah.
39:33I wouldn't be surprised if Dr. Frasier
39:35wants to keep her for herself.
39:37As long as Cassandra's happy.
39:39She appears to be.
39:41I wasn't completely at ease
39:43until I knew that the object was shrinking
39:45and being reabsorbed into her system.
39:47Hey!
39:49Hey, Samantha.
39:51See my new dog?
39:53Wow.
39:55Your new dog?
39:57It's an Earth rule.
39:59Every kid has to have one.
40:01But I don't mind.
40:07Why don't I take the dog
40:09for a little walk?
40:13Here.
40:15Yep.
40:17Yep.
40:19Know anything about dogs?
40:21Nothing.
40:27When you find me a new home,
40:29will you come and visit me?
40:31You betcha. All the time.
40:33That is, when you're on Earth.
40:35Right.
40:37Now, about that, Cassandra.
40:39I know. Stargate is a secret.
40:41And I was born
40:43in a place called
40:45Toronto?
40:47Right.
40:49What are those?
40:53Ah.
40:55Those are swings.
40:57Never had any of those
40:59in Toronto.
41:01They look like fun.
41:03They are. Come on.
