Colonel Carter, I've read your proposal.
And?
And I'm not exactly sure what an aneurysm feels like, but I suspect I'm pretty close.
I'm glad I'm not the only one.

Colonel Carter, I've read your proposal.
And?
And I'm not exactly sure what an aneurysm feels like, but I suspect I'm pretty close.
I'm glad I'm not the only one.
Why didn't you just tell him we'd come up with a viable method for cold fusion while you were at it?!
I admit it's a pretty sound theory. Pardon the pun. [chuckles] Ultra-sonic waves. [laughs] Uhh, that's good. Anyway...
Well, trying to achieve something as specific as isolating one small part of the brain is like...it's like... trying to...do something...that's impossible.
Good analogy.
According to the mission report on your first encounter with Orlin, you two had an... "intimate" relationship?
Uh, well, we did. But, uh, he didn't look like that. He was…
Taller?
He was a grown man.
[regarding the Anti-Prior device]
So how does it work, assuming it actually does work?
You know, I keep telling myself that one of these days I'm going to do something that gets me a little respect.
We're all waiting for that day, Bill.
Well while we're at it, why don't we just assume I can fly?
Oh, actually, I have been working on a theory...
It makes no difference what you do to me. But know this: The Ori are all-seeing! They are already aware of this... affront to their eminence and shall strike down those who defy them.
[shrugs] Nothing yet, you?
Drawing a blank. [pause] A little thirsty.
That doesn't count.
No, it doesn't.
Their movements are not so easily divined. Their ways are unseen and veiled in mystery.
Right, right, they have a "plan". (Mitchell makes the "air quotes" sign.) Don't suppose you want to tell us what that plan is? For example, why did they send you to this galaxy in the first place?
We are beacons on the road to enlightenment.
No, you are dark-side intergalactic encyclopedia salesmen, but unfortunately, the home office hasn't been quite upfront with you.
Nice work on the metaphor.
Thank You.
For starters: Did you know, the Ori need people to worship them to gain their power?
[Prior looks surprised for a moment, but then collects himself]
He didn't know...
No, he didn't know that. [to Prior] No, it's true.
[Lt. Colonel Mitchell has just completed a lengthy dissertation on how to make an avocado omelette as General Landry arrives]
General, we were just exchanging recipes.
Has the prisoner offered anything?
No sir, the man doesn't even have a decent pie crust.
I'm telling you, I'm fine! [to his daughter] Carolyn, can you tell those people I'm fine?
You're not fine.
How will we know when the device is working?
Well, we'll know when he's no longer able to use his powers.
How will we know the Prior is no longer able to use his powers?
Well, someone is just gonna have to test it and find out.
[Jackson and the Sodan Jaffa look as though they're preparing themselves for bad news]
No worries, fellas, that someone is me.
[Jackson looks pleased, nods vigorously, points to Mitchell]
[Gerak enters the quarantine room]
What's going on?
Gerak has arrived to assist us.
[Gerak pauses]
Why do you hesitate, Gerak?
If I help you, I will die. But I will die free!
[Gerak slams the end of his staff to the floor; it begins to glow, the light eventually infusing the entire base. Gerak bursts into flames and disappears.]
Okay, say for example we accept the possibility that this is an alternate SG-1 from a… parallel universe. How did they get here?
I got nothing.
[Everyone looks at Carter in surprise]
...yet.
[Mitchell walks into the room where Alternate Daniel is being held, and hands him a cup of coffee]
Sumatra Mandheling. Two creams, one sugar.
[Alternate Daniel raises his eyebrows]
Lucky guess.
As we discussed the situation, we realized we could pinpoint the source of the phenomenon to a precise window, specifically, the interim journey between the two gates.
Did she just say "we?"
Pardon me?
She said "we." You said "we?"
Ah. Uh, me and...myself, I suppose. The other Samantha Carter.
Right. Finally someone who can keep up with you, huh?
[Happily] Yup.
