[O'Neill enters the control room in civilian clothing]
George. [He hands Gen. Hammond a sheet of paper, pulls up his sleeve and examines his wristwatch]
Colonel, what are you doing out of uniform?
Handing you my resignation.
[shocked] Resigning? What for?
[looking at his watch and obviously measuring his words to coincide with the end of the time loop] So I can do...this. [He kisses Carter deeply just before the loop repeats]
In all seriousness, if that's all right with you, Colonel? How effective can a single fighter be against a potential fleet of Goa'uld warships?
That is what these tests endeavour to determine.
Let's find out. What's next?
I take second seat for an air-to-air live fire test.
Our SGC control room will serve as Mission Control, Sir.
Light that candle, boys.
Yes, Sir.
[Teal'c and O'Neill head back to the glider.]
Does General Vidrine wish to perform some sort of candle-burning ritual?
Yes, that's it, exactly.
Just so we're clear on this, sir, it's gonna be me, Teal'c and the great outdoors. That means no cellphones, fax machines, not another living soul for miles. We'll be unavailable, inaccessible.
Incommunicado.
Minnesota, sir.
I stand corrected.
If there's an emergency at the base, better plan ahead and tell me now. If Thor needs me, he's gonna have to beam me up. If it's the Tok'ra... forget it!
[Daniel Jackson introduces Gen. Hammond to Shifu, the Harcesis child]
Welcome to Earth.
A spark lights a flame, but the candle will only burn as long as the wick.
If I may, sir. I think what he means is the wick is the centre of the candle, and ostensibly a great leader, like yourself, is essential to the... whole ball of wax. Basically, what it means is that it's always better to have a big, long wick. Right?
Don't look at me.
It's right, though? Right?
The General Ryan?
I've read a lot about you Colonel.
[tentatively] Yes, Sir?
Thus far, we like your work.
Thank you Sir! I like yours. Your Air Force. The Air Force. I love the Air Force...
Anything else, Colonel?
No, sir. Well, actually, I'd like to know how Daniel and Carter got out of this...very important mission.
What's it doing? [About the MALP]
Flying, sir.
MALPs can't fly.
Apparently they can.
Shouldn't there be a memo on this stuff?
Any idea what that was?
None, Sir. The secondary systems are up and running but that was one hell of an EM spike. I'd like to run a full systems diagnostic on the main computer.
Yeah, after I treat this hand.
As soon as I get the systems up…
It is a very bad burn, Sam.
Five minutes.
Now!
Do as the Doctor says.
Yes, Sir.
Thank you Colonel. You, Daniel and Teal'c are next.
What? We're…I'm fine.
Yeah well I would like to be the judge of that. Some form of energy came through the Stargate. I think it's only prudent to make sure there are no physiological effects to those exposed. ASAP.
Who put her in charge?
The US Air Force.
In medical matters, Dr. Fraiser may overrule those of any rank.
I'm not getting all my memos.
Teal'c, do you recognize any of this?
I do not, General Hammond.
Daniel?
I don't recognize it either.
Nope, neither do I. [Everyone looks at him] I'm just sayin'.
[Hammond walks in and sees the Entity's construction]
What in God's name?!
Well, General, whatever got into our computers apparently has built a nest.
Colonel O'Neill, it was my understanding that the robots agreed to bury their Stargate and never leave their planet.
Yes sir.
Then it would seem your robot counterpart is equally as good at following orders as you.
(in a female voice) The Tok'ra are officially considering Selmac a fallen war hero.
You'll forgive me for holding out hope a little longer. SG-1 has a surprisingly good habit of beating the odds.
Please explain to me what it is you hope to achieve by depriving Teal'c of his symbiote?
I hope to save him.
By killing him?
If necessary.
See, I think we disagree on the meaning of the word "save".
[referring to Carter's plan] I thought the odds of success in this scenario were one in a million, Major.
Yes, sir. But I now think that we can increase that estimate to one percent.
It's your call, General. I only understand only one percent of what she says half the time.
What you're sensing as trouble could be simple internal political wrangling.
I understand that.
Or we could be walking into a minefield.
[O'Neill stares at Hammond for a moment]
Thank you, Sir. These little chats of ours always bring me...great joy and serve to ease my mind.
As far as what you told me, there seems to be an evil conspiracy among the Tollan Curia, whose apparent goal is to give us everything we ever wanted. That makes no sense.
That's what I said.
