[Vala is nearly in tears after Daniel claims she uses sex as a weapon. He starts to apologize when he suddenly comes to a realization.]
Are you messing with me?
ValaIs it working?
Vala! You cowardly, backstabbing sorry excuse for a woman. How've you been?
ValaInago. You filthy, double talking slug. Nice to see you too.
Obviously they used to date.
[Vala is found by Dr. Jackson in his bed claiming to have gone into the wrong room]
ValaAnyhow, since I'm here shall we make the best of it?
No we shalln't.
I can do it. Just uh, do me a favor. I need some help.
ValaOkay, what?
Go to the panel by the rear exit.
ValaOkay, now what?
Stay there, shut up, and let me finish.
ValaLook, I never killed anyone, I never tortured them, I was a wonderful god. Just ask them!
I think we will.
ValaWhy? You don't believe me?
That, and I'm not totally convinced they are ultimately going to follow your command, nor should that be the only reason they don't follow the Priors.
ValaI am still supposed to be their god, I can't very well go out there and ask them if they are going to listen to me.
I wasn't expecting you to.
ValaWhat makes you think they're going to tell you the truth; you're supposed to be my faithful servant.
Then I'll sort of explain that we're not as faithful as you might like to believe, and if necessary I'll also tell them we're plotting to kill you.
ValaI have heard better plans!
I kinda like it.
ValaShut up!
After Mitchell has persuaded the villagers to put Vala on trial.
ValaThank you! I apologize for ever questioning your masterful skills at negotiation!
He's doing the best he can.
ValaThat's what terrifies me!
Okay. We have a very limited window of opportunity here. If you expose yourself as a false god, if you tell these people how you fooled them and why, we might be able to make them skeptical about the Prior.
ValaOr, it could push them towards believing in the Ori as true gods even more.
No, the only chance these people have, the only chance any of us have against the Priors is to show them that we will not accept the Ori as gods. No matter what happens, we must reject them. True enlightenment must begin with the truth.
[pulling Vala's scarf off her neck] Vala, this is a military vessel.
ValaI know, darling. I've stolen it before.
Well, just try to be, uh…
ValaMy charming self?
Just a little less talk; a little more shut the hell up.
The next idea we come up with has to be outside the box.
Okay, the gate is composed of individual units. The—There must be some sort of energy linkage between them, like a—like a chain.
ValaExactly, so we—
So we need a big ol' set of bolt cutters.
Oooh. Too far outside the box. Get closer to the box.
[Vala has taken over Daniel Jackson's body]
ValaIt's funny, isn't it? Daniel always wanted to get in my pants, and now I'm in his.
Oh, that's not funny.
ValaHmm?
He can't defend himself.
ValaThe village was run by this complete bear of a man named Seevis, who was both barkeep and administrator which seemed the oddest contradiction. He claimed to be the most pious man in the village. If anyone strayed from the path of righteousness, it was Seevis who made sure you were severely punished for it. But seems to be a lot more leeway for sin in the religion of Origin than one would presume from all the preaching.
So it’s just like my grandma used to say. No point going to confession if you ain’t got nothing to confess.
ValaExactly.
You stated you had information of great importance.
ValaI do, I do. And I'm getting there.
We get the back story. Tomin is a nice guy, Seevis is a butthead. How about you skip ahead a little?
ValaOkay. Tomin and I got married—
Whoa, married?
ValaStay with me. I had no choice. I told you, he was very devout, and there's no way he would have slept with me out of wedlock.
[awkward pause]
Okay, maybe we skipped ahead a little too far.
ValaWell, I tried to lay it out in order...Ooh, that's a bad choice of words.
You have been impregnated, without copulation.
ValaYes! And I'm absolutely terrified - have any of you ever heard anything like it?
W-Well.. there is one.
Darth Vader.
ValaReally? How did that turn out?
Well, actually, I was thinking about King Arthur.
ValaSo, this girl in the bar. Her name was Denya, and we struck up a bit of a friendship. By the looks on your faces, I can see you're not surprised I had more in common with the village harlot than I did with any of the ladies from the local knitting circle.
Don't know what you're talking about.
ValaAt least she was honest.
ValaIsn't there a part of you that's from me?
Of course. You are my mother.
ValaAnd as your mother, you will listen to me, young lady. There will be no leading of these ships and armies on a mass-murdering crusade! Or else!
[Adria remains unmoved]
ValaEh, it was worth a try.
