- Take the trail to the right! - Are you sure?
Good call.
[BOTH GASP]
[BOTH GRUNTING]
Just drive!
[GRUNTS]
HARRISON: Now what? - They said "Don't stop for anything."
But if we go left, we'll crash in the gully...
...and if we go right, we'll flip.
If we just sit here, we'll--
[BOTH GASP]
[BUZZING]
Get nailed.
SERGEANT: What is there no time for in the field, cadets?
- Indecision, sir. - But both choices looked bad, sergeant.
- How could we know which would work? SERGEANT: You couldn't, Mr. Harrison.
That's the point.
Sometimes you just have to make a choice and deal with it.
Ah.
So, Harrison, how'd your MORV drill go?
Ah, don't ask.
I am told that no cadet completes the course on his first attempt.
This is where I get off.
Stacey?
It's her uncle's trial, Seattle. Wanna sneak in with us?
We are needed in the laboratory, but we wish Major Bonner luck.
HARRISON: Yeah, I can't believe Gus Bonner disobeyed orders.
STONEMAN: Play Major Bonner's helmet-cam video for the court.
BONNER: Take your men, recon beyond that ridge to the south.
I'll secure the camp perimeter.
LIEUTENANT: Our pre-mission briefing...
...said we were just supposed to establish a base camp.
SG Command--
BONNER: I give the orders here, lieutenant, not Stargate Command.
Yes, sir. Jones, Pickens, saddle up. We're moving out.
STONEMAN: This was our first encounter...
...with the alien race we have come to know as the Tlak'kahn.
Major Bonner sent his troops into an ambush...
...in clear violation of his orders.
STONEMAN: Will the defendant rise?
Maybe somebody messed with the video to make your uncle look bad.
It's been checked.
SOLDIER: Look out! Look out!
[ALL SHOUTING]
[GROWLS]
I may be new to command here, Major Bonner...
...but I respect the challenges of off-planet duty.
Is there anything you would like to add in your defense?
Being an officer, a soldier, just being an adult for that matter...
...means making decisions and living with the consequences.
A decision was made and an order was given on PR6-308...
...that cost us a lot of good men and women.
Someone gave the order to send that patrol out...
...but it wasn't me.
I'm sorry to see that you're still evading responsibility for your actions, major.
The court has no choice but to find you guilty...
...of disobeying orders and gross dereliction of duty.
[GAVEL ECHOING]
- No. - That's it. He did it.
However, the court appreciates Major Bonner's years of service...
...to Stargate Command, and it commends his heroism...
...in rescuing the survivors of his team.
For this reason, the court will deliberate further...
...to determine a fitting punishment.
Until then, Major Bonner is confined to Stargate Command...
...without duties or authority.
What a shame.
This was uncovered in an Egyptian tomb near where the first stargate was found.
The sarcophagus is made of naquadah.
The same alien mineral as the stargate.
Exactly, Mr. Ec'co.
Sorry I'm late, Dr. Mason. It won't happen again.
That's all right, Captain Grimes.
It takes a while to settle into new duties.
Stargate Command believes the sarcophagus may contain...
...physical evidence left behind by the Ancients who built the stargates.
I've broken the seal. Let's see what's inside.
Oh, it's just a mummy.
Let's be sure.
[SCANNER BUZZING]
That's no mummy, science officer.
It looks like a statue. Why would someone bury a statue?
Wait, the chest is hollow...
...with some kind of organic mass inside.
Could it be a Canopic jar to hold a mummy's internal organs?
I've never seen one this big before.
Dr. Mason, it moved.
No, it must be a glitch in the machine.
This artifact is 5000 years old.
[BEEPING]
[GASPS]
It's growing.
[STATUE CRACKING]
[ALL GASP]
[ALL SHOUT]
Aah!
[GROWLING]
[YELPS]
[CRIES]
[MASON GASPS]
[WOMEN SHOUT]
[GRUNTS]
[GASPS]
[ALL GASP]
Don't let it get away!
[GRUNTS AND CRIES]
MASON: Ooh! Unh!
GRIMES: Ow! EC'CO: Unh!
Wait. It's just scared.
Everyone, take it easy.
[ALIEN GRUNTING]
That's it.
I sense it understands that we're friends.
[SEATTLE YELPS]
[ALIEN CRIES]
Got it.
STONEMAN: Take good care of it, doctor.
That creature could be the key to learning the identity of the Ancients...
...and finding their home planet.
[SIGHS]
How's our patient doing, Miss Montoya?
Dr. Mason, the creature, it's changed.
Amazing. It's developing so quickly.
There's no way of knowing with an alien life form...
...but it could reach maturity very soon.
GRIMES: And if it is the Ancient...
...it's time to stop being Captain Grimes.
[GROANING]
[GRUNTING]
NEPHESTIS: And while I can't betray Stargate Command...
...in my normal form as the shape-shifting Nephestis...
...perhaps I would have better luck in the form of an accused traitor.
Someone like Gus Bonner.
You know, uh, as soon as I graduate from the academy...
...and finish my stargate training, I'll be going to the stars.
Actually, you'll be going to planets orbiting stars.
If you went to a star, you'd be vaporized by the heat.
[MUTTERS] Uh, no danger of that here.
[DOOR OPENS]
Carry on, cadet.
HARRISON: Sorry about the court-martial verdict, major.
I know you'll clear yourself with Stargate Command.
I'll settle for revenge.
Huh?
[GASPS]
[BOTH GASP]
[BOTH GROANING]
When the stun wears off, be sure to tell Stargate Command I said that.
NEPHESTIS: To operate a stargate, become a stargate operator.
Being the girl should do nicely.
[DOOR OPENS]
This is a restricted area, major.
At ease, Cadet Bonner.
You no longer have authority to give orders, sir.
If you don't leave the area, I'll have to place you under arrest.
I'm already under arrest.
I just wanna look at the stargate one last time.
It's been 20 years since I went through the first time.
I've been through dozens of stargates since...
...to dozens of different worlds.
Sometimes at night, I look at the sky, at the stars...
...and wonder which ones I've been to.
I was never any good at astronomy.
Stacey, you wanna know what the best world is?
The next one.
Who opened the Iris?
[STARGATE BEEPING]
[STACEY GASPS]
[BOTH GASP]
[GROWLING]
[ALL GROWLING]
STACEY: What are you--? BONNER: Get down!
[GRUNTS]
[GROANS]
- We gotta get to the armory. - But you're under--
Just go!
Establish a defensive perimeter. I will secure the Ancient.
Yes, Commander Da'kyll.
STONEMAN: Stargate Command is under attack.
All personnel, report to emergency stations.
This is not a drill.
[ALARM BEEPING]
[GROANING]
I wish somebody would turn off that alarm. Wha--?
Gee, thanks.
Blast the human!
[SHOT FIRED]
HARRISON: Come on!
The Tlak'kahn have taken the stargate chamber!
They can't fight all of us. They must be after something.
The creature.
[GRUNTS]
[MOANS]
My apologizes, Dr. Mason...
...but some friends of mine have need of your discovery.
Don't fire. Take me to Da'kyll.
So this is an Ancient. Not much to look at.
- Take it to the stargate. - I'm staying, Da'kyll.
The humans will know someone told us about the Ancient...
...and opened the Iris on the stargate.
They won't rest until they've found the spy.
Let them look. I've arranged things just like I did on PR6-308.
NEPHESTIS: I stole Bonner's helmet to make a recording of his crime.
Then, I changed into his image so no one would question his orders.
Then, I sent the patrol into an ambush.
Now I've made it look like Bonner has betrayed Stargate Command...
...to get revenge for being court-martialed.
Very clever, Nephestis. Almost worthy of a Tlak'kahn.
Now, hit me with a stun blast so it'll look like I tried to stop you.
You were born to be a spy.
[GROANING]
HARRISON: Huh? TLAK'KAHN: Huh?
[GRUNTS]
Cadet Bonner to Dr. Mason. We're on our way to secure the lab.
Come in, Dr. Mason. She's not responding.
Let's hope we're not too late.
Hold it right there.
I wanted to believe you just made a mistake on 308...
...but you're a traitor, major, and you know what happens to traitors.
- What are you talking about, Harrison? HARRISON: Ask your uncle.
He opened the Iris on the stargate so the Tlak'kahn could come.
You been reading comic books again?
I was in the control center when you came in...
...talking about getting revenge on Stargate Command.
Then you hit me with a stun blast.
[GASPS]
- Take his weapons, Harrison. - Stacey!
Not your day, huh, major?
We're wasting time. We have to get to the lab to protect that creature.
[SEATTLE GROANING]
Seattle, what's wrong?
I-- I was thinking about the alien in the lab...
...and suddenly I felt like I was moving, like I was going down a corridor.
The Tlak'kahn may have already reached the lab and taken the creature.
- What do we do now? - Head them off at the pass.
Okay, forget it. They used to say that in Westerns.
Cowboy movies? Eh, it's before your time.
If the Tlak'kahn have the creature, they'll take it back to the stargate.
Let's go.
After you.
Yeah. Okay, then. Um, let's go.
Prepare the stargate for return.
Activate the stargate.
[STARGATE BEEPING]
Get the Ancient through the stargate.
[SHOUTS]
[GROANS]
Get that thing out of here!
[MOANING]
They need our help in there.
Just stay where you are, sir-- Unh!
Guess not.
[GRUNTS]
Kid, get down!
- Thanks. - Thank me later. They've got us cut off.
Let's get with the others.
[GRUNTS]
You can't escape, humans.
Surrender the Ancient and I'll let you go free.
As soon as they move away from the creature...
...blast them.
What about the stargate?
They'll have the stargate set to take them to their base.
Yeah, but they won't be expecting us.
- What about what you said, about him? - I don't know.
This could be the guy who shot me...
...or it could be the guy who's been helping us fight the bad guys.
Somebody's gotta make a choice, right or wrong, and deal with it.
Let's do it.
[TIRES SQUEALING]
Harrison, the ceiling.
[MOANS]
I think I've got gate lag. Ooh, nobody warned me.
What are you doing, major?
Setting a new destination on the stargate, a planet I know.
- What sort of planet, sir? - A better one than this.
Huh?
- They'll follow us through the stargate. - No, they won't.
Harrison?
HARRISON: Sometimes there's no way to be sure.
You just have to go for it.
