Stargate SG-1

Another one.

Perhaps the ancestors used it

For astronomical calculation.

The settlement must be nearby.

Chevron 4 locked. Report.

Sir, we've just got Our first hit

With the cold address program...

P2X-416.

Prepare the M.A.L.P.

We must leave, Nyan.

Nyan, you'll drown.

It doesn't feel like water.

What's up?

Cold dialing program Made a positive hit on P2X-416.

Wonder why.

Looks like the locals Have unburied the Stargate

Since the computer last dialed.

Now, see, that's what I don't understand.

How does the computer Know how to do that?

It doesn't, sir.

I created The cold dialing software

To periodically redial Cartouche Stargate addresses

That hadn't connected The first time.

This is our first hit.

Oh.

Receiving M.A.L.P. Telemetry

Now.

Woman: Nyan, what is it?

I don't know.

Can you, uh,

Can you follow him?

Hello, Nyan.

Jackson: don't be afraid.

My name is Daniel Jackson.

Are you a mechanical life form?

No. I'm... I'm communicating With you through that device.

From where?

From another planet.

This is a trick.

We must report this, Nyan.

No. Not yet.

Why?

Sir, request permission To visit P2X-416.

Wait a minute.

Jack, they're Obviously intelligent.

Judging from their Clothes and tools,

They appear to be close To our level of technology.

And has anyone seen a D.H.D. In this transmission?

He's right.

Maybe you'd better take A naquada reactor with you

So you can power up the Gate and dial out manually.

Right.

Mallin, I think We found the gateway.

There is no gateway.

That is Optrician legend.

Well, then how Do you explain this?

This could be very Dangerous, Nyan.

Do you realize what This would mean?

It would mean we were wrong

And the Optricians were right.

Jackson: Nyan, is it All right if we visit you?

No. Yes.

Ok. Well, we'll be With you shortly.

Try to stay close To that mechanical device

iv speaking through,

And, uh, try to avoid that big Splash that you saw before.

It's... It's kind of dangerous.

We will be waiting here To welcome you, Daniel.

Mallin, come back!

If you tell them, they might Kill whoever comes through.

Mallin!

Hello, Nyan.

You're human.

Yes.

Jackson: I'm Daniel Jackson,

The person you were Talking to before.

This is major Carter,

Colonel Jack O'Neill, And Teal'c.

We're from a planet Called Earth.

You all right?

Then the legend is true.

What, uh, what legend is that?

Um...

The Optricians believe That humans

Were brought to this planet

By aliens who traveled Through a gateway,

But during the Upheaval, The gateway was buried,

And the beings could No longer come through.

What was the Upheaval?

A period of violent Earthquakes

And volcanic eruptions Covering most of this continent

About 2,000 years ago.

So if the Stargate's Been buried for that long,

How did you know Where to look for it?

Well, I was not looking for it.

I was hoping to find A primitive settlement

That was here Before the Upheaval.

I was hoping to prove The Bedrosian theory.

What's that?

That human life was Created on Bedrosia

Without a gateway.

Ah.

So this country Is called Bedrosia?

This continent.

And then who are the Optricians?

A rival continent.

Rival as in... what?

We believe that we were Created on this continent,

And the Optricians believe that

Their holy gateway is On this continent.

Therefore, we've been At war for decades.

Ok. Carter, you want to make Sure the reactor's all hooked up

Just in case?

Mind if I ask

How close to the Front lines we might be?

A great distance. There's No need for concern.

Mm-hmm.

O'Neill!

Oh, no. No!

Come with me. We have to hide.

I thought you said they Weren't around here.

Nyan: those are not Optrician.

They're my people, Bedrosian.

Good guys?

Good is not the first word

That I would use To describe the ones

That approach. - Aha.

We must run now.

Ok. Carter,

Dial it up.

I need 5 minutes before I can be operational, sir.

This way. Quickly.

Screw it. Let's go. Come on.

Do you believe we come in peace?

Got a commanding Officer around here?

Wow. Tough crowd.

What happened to Nyan?

I'd imagine he's saving his Own butt right about now.

Unh!

Ooh. Aah!

Mallin.

You said there were aliens here.

Yes, sir.

Those people came Through the gateway.

No, they didn't.

Man: it's a trick,

A contrivance.

Perhaps, but one of those Aliens named Daniel,

He talked to Nyan Through that machine

That came through the circle.

The shuttle craft will Take you to my base.

We will question you On this matter further.

Either this Nyan fired At my craft,

Or another Optrician Is out there.

Either way, I want them found.

Yes, sir.

Ok. That's a needle.

Unh!

Ow!

Jackson: unh!

Which of you is Daniel?

I'm in command.

Colonel Jack O'Neill here.

I'm unfamiliar with that Optrician designation.

We're not Optrician. We're Explorers from another planet.

We traveled Through the Stargate.

This type of Psychological warfare,

Simulating the Optrician Gateway fallacy

To undermine our Most basic beliefs,

Will not work.

Yeah.

I know that could be Hard to believe,

So why don't you let us show you

How the Stargate works,

And if you're still Not convinced,

We'll just take Our stuff and go.

Fair enough?

Erect a quarantine field.

Hey!

Unh!

State your purpose.

Nyan.

Grr.

We have to get away from here.

Where are my friends?

Captured.

I will not leave my friends.

We can't get to them.

Rigar's set up A quarantine field,

And as soon as he finds The soldier you killed...

You're blind.

They were starting to dig here.

Finish for them.

I want to know what's in there.

I have the results From the blood analysis.

There's a 98% correspondence.

They are definitely human,

But none of them are Showing a particle match

For the Bedrosian Central registry.

And that proves They are Optrician.
