[Col. O'Neill has been turned into a teenager]
Daniel! Will you tell them who I am? Please?
Okay. Love to. Who are you?
This boy claims he's Colonel O'Neill.
This is a joke right?
Daniel!
Sounds like him, at least the loud grating part.
You want proof? Carter, you once carried a Tokra named Jolinar who gave her life to save you. Daniel, until recently you were an ascended being. Ya broke the rules, ya got yourself kicked out of the Oma Desala fan club and had your memory erased... (Teal'c enters the room)... and you and Bra'tac both just lost your snakes in a Goa'uld ambush. Had your tretonin yet this morning?
Are you saying Colonel O'Neill has, somehow, regressed more than 30 years overnight?
Stranger things have happened.
Name but one.
Well, there was the time he got really old, the time he became a caveman, the time we all swapped bodies...
[Teal'c is looking through Col. O'Neill's fridge]
Are you conducting some sort of scientific experiment, O'Neill?
Hey, come on, that salsa's still good.
There's no easy way to tell you this, so... Sam's just gonna come right out and say it.
What's going on?
[referring to Loki] We're pretty sure this Asgard kidnapped you and attempted to replace you with a clone.
How long was I asleep?!
Seven days.
That's a record.
No, no, no, this is all wrong.
Hey! I'll tell you what's wrong. I just woke up, haven't had coffee, let alone a pee in seven days, and I find out you stole my ass and made a -- mini-me! Carter, I should be irked currently, yes?
Yes, I—I would be.
I am a scientist. A former geneticist with the Asgard Ruling Council.
Former?
I was stripped of my stature when I was caught performing unsanctioned experiments on humans.
What, you've got sanctioned ones?
Why risk coming back here after nineteen years?
I thought he was the one.
Me?
I believed his genetic code contained the key.
Mine?
[To the clone] Will you stop that?
He was physiologically advanced enough to carry and utilize all the data from the Ancient repository of knowledge. That would not be possible for any human one generation ago. He is a significant step forward on your evolutionary path.
You just found this out recently?
I learned about it when all the Asgard did. O'Neill is legendary. [Col. O'Neill adopts a smug look]
Look, I know you don't think I am who I am, but, as far as I'm concerned, I am.. who.. I am.
Uh, what do we do if Thor doesn't show up? [Thor beams aboard the ship] Never mind.
Well, it's about time!
I apologize for not coming sooner. [angrily] Loki, what have you done?
Yeah, it seems he's been playing Dr. Moreau behind your back
Yes. Dr. Moreau.
