“Prometheus Unbound” · Season 8, Episode 12

In this episode: Daniel Jackson (6), Vala Mal Doran (3), Jack O'Neill (2), George Hammond (1)

Come on, Jack!

GOGen. O'Neill

Still no, Daniel.

But it doesn't have to be on a permanent basis!

GOGen. O'Neill

I didn't let you go in the first place. What makes you think I'm gonna change my mind?

Because.

GOGen. O'Neill

Can you try to do better than that?

Because they're going to need somebody who can translate Ancient. I'm the most qualified person left on the planet for the mission.

GOGen. O'Neill

Which is exactly why you're gonna stay right here.

[desperately] Because I'll quit!

GOGen. O'Neill

Why don't you just hold your breath? You haven't done that in a while.

[Jack and Daniel are arguing over Daniel going to Atlantis and find General Hammond in Jack's chair in his office.]

GOGen. O'Neill

General!

MGMajor General George S. Hammond

Jack. I let myself in, hope you don't mind.

GOGen. O'Neill

Absolutely not! Welcome.

MGMajor General George S. Hammond

Thank you.

GOGen. O'Neill

Miss the chair?

MGMajor General George S. Hammond

Actually I do.

GOGen. O'Neill

Want it back?

MGMajor General George S. Hammond

As a matter of fact I do. My new one just isn't the same.

GOGen. O'Neill

That's not exactly what I meant...

MGMajor General George S. Hammond

Doctor Jackson. Nice to see you again.

Likewise. We miss you around here, sir. [Jack gives him an angry stare] So, to what do we owe this pleasure?

MGMajor General George S. Hammond

I came to see if you were interested in joining the mission to Atlantis.

Gen. O'Neill & Daniel Jackson: You did?

MGMajor General George S. Hammond

He's the most qualified person on this planet, and the mission commander needs someone who can translate Ancient.

Really?

GOGen. O'Neill

With all due respect, sir, I think you should tell the mission commander that I need Daniel right here.

MGMajor General George S. Hammond

You just did.

GOGen. O'Neill

I did. I did? [pauses] You, sir?

MGMajor General George S. Hammond

Yes. Request denied. Doctor Jackson, you're with me. I'll have this chair shipped to Washington. You can requisition a new one.

GOGen. O'Neill

I'll do that, sir.

MGMajor General George S. Hammond

We leave tomorrow. Oh, and I'll be taking Walter, too.

[Hammond leaves, while O'Neill wears the expression of one who has no idea what just happened]

[A Kull warrior has taken over the Prometheus, and has Jackson tied to the captain's chair.]

Where's everybody else?

KWKull Warrior

I transported them onto the al'kesh.

Well, you kept the wrong guy, 'cause I don't know anything about the ship.

KWKull Warrior

But you are very attractive.

[coughs in shock] What?

[The warrior moves in front of Daniel and straddles his legs]

[trying to squirm away] Hey, you know, big guy, I'm flattered, really I am, it's just that, uh, you're not my type. And I'm more than a little disturbed that I might be yours.

[Vala wakes up in the Prometheus holding cell, dressed in SGC fatigues instead of her zat-resistant bodysuit]

Did you have fun taking off my clothes?

It was your idea.

No, I meant while I was conscious. You know, so I could distract you and kick you in the head.

Come on, you've seen me naked. The least you could do is cook me dinner.
