We don't know where it is now. But we do know where it was... Giza, 3000 B.C.
[shaking her head] You can't be serious.
What?
It's the only way.
What?
No, we agreed.
If I have to say "what" one more time, heads are gonna roll!
We have a time machine. We can go back and get the ZPM.
She wouldn't let me go back and watch the Cubs win the World Series.
[Teal'c has disguised himself as one of Ra's Jaffa in order to steal the ZPM from Ra's treasure room]
Do you really think they're just going to let him waltz in and take it?
Like I said, they don't even know what a ZPM is. To them it's like any number of dozens of ritualistic objects they pull out for any number of occasions. Besides, he's wearing the shiny suit.
A general is only as good as the people he commands.
General O'NeillWho said that?
I just did.
[O'Neill looks at Landry doubtfully]
I mean, Douglas MacArthur may have said something similar.
General O'NeillSorry you missed the Daedalus.
No, you're not.
General O'NeillYou're right, I'm not.
General O'NeillNow, see, that's one of the great things about being a general. You pretty much get to do whatever you want.
I suppose after you've saved the world seven or eight times…
General O'Neill[amused] Who's counting, huh?
Teal'c.
[Cut to a locker room with a shower running- after a pause, Carter cautiously looks out from over the top of the shower curtain]
Sir? Are you there?
[Long pause]
Nope.
[Cut to a corridor. Teal'c is walking along next to a coffee mug apparently floating in mid-air (obviously being held by O'Neill)]
Col. O'NeillThe bottom line is, I can do more for this planet invisible than I ever could as my own sweet salient self.
[Pause, Teal'c looks steadily in the direction of where we presume O'Neill to be standing]
I assume I am staring at you stoically.
Col. O'NeillNot buying it, eh?
No. You are most transparent, O'Neill.
Col. O'NeillOhh! I get it. Good one.
I can see right through you.
Col. O'NeillDonnnnnn't push it...
I'm talking about ...a twist; something nobody's expecting!
[walks in the door] You mean something like this?
Wow, I don't think anybody will see that coming.
Nope, there'll be spoilers.
Are you kidding? It'll be in the commercial.
[Carter was correct; the scene in which O'Neill appears was part of the commercial for "200"]
[O'Neill and Jackson are waiting at an altar, O'Neill as the groom and Jackson as the best man]
You know, if she doesn't show, people are going to think that…you and I are…
What?
[A possible reference to slash shippers.]
[O'Neill takes a moment to look over Prior-Daniel]
[brightly] This is new.
[casual] Yeah, it's always something, isn't it?
I gotta tell you though, not your look.
Jack, you have to believe me.
Why?
"Why." Well because, oh I don't know, the fate of the galaxy hangs in the balance?
You know, that old chestnut is getting a little... old.
No, no, that part never gets old. Now, you have to shut down that Supergate, and you have to let me go!
[jokingly] You know I hate being told what to do.
Jack, it's me!
[shouting] What, that's supposed to convince me?! Look at you!
Have I ever let you down? No, don't answer that, have I ever let you down when it really mattered?
You know, there's a bottom line here: Carter doesn't think it can be done.
Yes, it can. A Mk-9 beamed directly behind the gate in the Pegasus galaxy will destroy that gate, the wormhole connection will be broken.
How do you know that?
Hello!? Merlin!
[mockingly] Oh yes. [in "spooky" voice] Merlin!
[frustrated] Jack, I wish I had proof. I wish I had a way to convince you, but I don't. Now this was the only choice I had and I took it. It's a good plan, it-it just happens to hinge on you guys believing in me, having a little faith. Now, I thought you of all people might!
Why!? You of all people should know that, I don't believe anything anybody says, even if I understand what they're talking about!
Dr. Jackson was the one who suggested that we should kill Khalek.
General O'NeillHe was the demon-spawn of Anubis.
[after meeting with Woolsey]
How's it going sir?
Longing for the days when I actually carried a weapon. What do you got?
A crazy idea.
I'm down with crazy. I like crazy. Crazy and I are like... that.
Cam likes crazy too.
Listen, if what Jackson is saying is true, there is an Ori ship out there with a near-complete weapon on it that could prove useful against the Ori. I think we should go after it.
You're right. That's crazy!
[Daniel beams O'Neill onto Odyssey's bridge]
... Daniel?
Jack.
What's up?
Oh, I'm taking the ship.
[looking around] Oh I see that.
Yeah I, I beamed the crew safely to the surface.
Nice for them.
But as you probably figured out by now, I'm going to need you.
You know, I was just thinking how much I missed being needed.
