 * TEASER
 * FADE IN
 * INT&mdash;GATE ROOM

Five airmen are sitting on duty around a table at the bottom of the ramp, playing poker.

She gets up from her seat and makes towards the covered item.

''The female airman approaches the tarp and starts up the ramp. It starts shaking suddenly, they hear a rumbling sound, and she backs away down the ramp as it shakes along with the table where the other airmen are seated. The four airmen jump to their feet, hands to their guns.''

The tarp flies from the device and reveals the Stargate spinning and active.

''Airman 2 goes to the red phone on the wall as the other stand ready at the base of the ramp. The Stargate activates&mdash;the kawhoosh expands outwards and, he drops the phone. The others fall to the ground as the event horizon billows out towards them. Airman 1 passes out guns, and they ready them, standing and waiting in front of the Stargate. The female airman starts up the ramp.''

''As she reaches the Stargate, a ball drops through it to her feet, glows, and seems to scan her bodily. It falls still, and she bends down to touch it.''

''She picks it up, looking back to them in confusion. Then a serpent guard steps through the wormhole right on top of her, taking a hold of her round the neck and taking her gun. The other airmen aim their guns.''

More serpent guards come through the Stargate.

''The last figure steps through the Stargate, his armour made of gold. He stands in front of his seven guards and reveals his face&mdash;a human face.''

The guard holding the female airman reveals his face, and Apophis turns to him.

Teal'c studies the female airman's gun, then drops it and passes the woman roughly to Apophis.

Apophis brings his hand up and a device emits a glow that latches on to her face, she becomes calm.

''One of the serpent guards fires with his staff weapon, and a fire fight ensues. Teal'c covers the female airman with his body as the bullets bounce off the Goa'uld armour. Apophis sees one of his guards go down. One of the airmen is hit, and he crashes on the card table.''

He waves them back.

''He is hit by a staff blast and goes down. Airmen 1 continues firing until he too is finally struck. The base alarms have started sounding.''

He looks towards the Stargate.

Airmen are running to the gate room.

The Mountain doors close.

INT&mdash;GATE ROOM

''General Hammond and the airmen stream in and take position. All but Apophis, the female airman and two of his guards are gone. One picks up the scanning device. The airmen cock their guns.''

''Apophis's eyes glow, his helmet goes up, and they retreat through the Stargate. The wormhole dissipates. Hammond starts up the ramp and stays in front of the Stargate, shocked.''

WORMHOLE EFFECT

INT—ABYDOS STARGATE ROOM

''O'Neill emerges through the 'gate, and it dissipates behind him. His team are there getting ready. He approaches Carter, who is hunched over.''

''They all move out into the apparently empty room when suddenly natives emerge from the shadows and point guns at them. They cock their own guns—at a stand off. Then Daniel pops up.''

The natives lower their weapons and relax.

''O'Neill walks towards him and then barges past to get to Skaara who stands behind him. Skaara salutes, and O'Neill returns it with a smile, then they hug with a laugh.''

He hands Daniel a pocket pack of tissues.

''Sha're emerges slightly at the side of the room. Daniel beckons to her.''

She joins him, and they stand together.

INT—ABYDOS STARGATE ROOM

''The Abydonians are talking and laughing with the team and Ferretti. They watch Sha're walk past them.''

They turn as the Stargate starts to dial in.

''They scatter to the edges of the room, hiding behind the pillars, holding their guns ready as the Stargate opens. Goa'uld guards walk through and start firing immediately, hitting a few Abyodonians. They fire back, as do the SG team. The Goa'uld have the upper hand quickly and Apophis looks on as they shoot the SG team down. Skaara sees Sha're and fires at the Goa'uld.''

''They seize her. She screams, and Skaara steps forward but finds his gun jammed. He tries to fight but is grabbed by Teal'c.''

''Teal'c's helmet opens to reveal his face to Skaara as he holds him. Meanwhile Sha're still fights with another guard.''

''Skaara spits in his face. Teal'c brings him to Apophis, who lowers his helmet.''

Apophis raises his hand device and knocks Skaara out with it.

''She is taken to Apophis. He studies her face.''

''He knocks her out with the hand device. A guard dials the Stargate. Ferretti, injured and barely conscious, watches the dialling. They leave through the 'gate with Sha're and Skaara. The wormhole deactivates. Abydonians emerge as Daniel and the other return.''

Bolaa's eyes close slowly, and he dies.

She holds up her camcorder.

Daniel looks around to his friends, some dying, some grieving.

''His voice breaks, and they all hug him, saying goodbye. Then he beaks free and starts to dial out on the DHD.''

The Stargate spins.

''The blast doors close and soldiers gather at the ramp base as the wormhole forms. The team bursts through, O'Neill and Carter dragging Ferretti, and others dragging another wounded team member. Samuels and Hammond enter.''

The metal iris closes on the Stargate, and O'Neill spins round in surprise, his gun ready.

His guards rush forward and pull her up.

INT—IMPLANTATION CHAMBER

Teal'c and the guards drag the female airman into the room.

Apophis enters the room.

''She is subdued, and they remove her clothes. Apophis looks her over.''

They lay her out on the slab in the centre of the room and Apophis calls into the side of the room, behind a curtain.

''A female Jaffa comes over and stands over the airman. From the Jaffa priestess's pouch. a symbiote reaches out, as if looking over the airman.''

''The symbiote retreats inside its pouch, and the priestess leaves. Apophis walks over, disappointed.''

INT—BRIEFING ROOM

''Hammond enters the already half-full room. Samuels announces him.''

They all sit.

Kawalsky looks over at O'Neill, who shrugs.

INT—IMPLANTATION CHAMBER

Sha're is brought in, fighting the guards.

She bites one of the guards.

''He subdues her with the hand device, and they remove her clothes, placing her on the slab. The priestess comes out, and her symbiote appears from the pouch.''

''The symbiote comes out and lays on Sha're's stomach. The guards turn her over, and it enters her though the neck. She screams. Teal'c watches it all stoically.''

EXT—CHULAK, DAY

The FRED leads the way as SG-1 and SG-2 look for a place to set up base camp.

They stop.

He salutes O'Neill, who returns the salute with a smile.

SG-1 take off.

He motions for them to get to cover, and they observe a troupe of figures heading their way dressed in robes and holding staffs.

Daniel breaks cover and jumps out in front of the figures.

All the aliens kneel down in reverence.

He pushes O'Neill and Carter's weapons to one side, then looks back at the aliens and they bow their heads.

He lifts the leader up to his feet.

He leads the way.

They all follow the aliens to a rise where they overlook a town.

''They walk on towards the village, entering a courtyard and then into a room where people are eating and celebrating. The room falls silent as the alien announces them.''

''They are led to seats around the table on the floor. All the people are staring at them.''

''Someone blows an instrument emitting a low pitched note and all the people bow down low. Daniel bows down too, looking to the others.''

''Heavy footsteps approach. SG-1 bows their heads and observe a troupe of Jaffa enter the room, then Teal'c, then Apophis and Sha're at his side.''

He unveils Sha're.

He darts out towards them.

Daniel stops short.

''Daniel begins to walk slowly towards his wife. Sha're's eyes glow, and Apophis lifts his hand device, using it to throw Daniel across the room against a far wall. Daniel crumples, unconscious. O'Neill raises his gun to shoot Apophis, but Sha're steps in the way. O'Neill holds fire in shock. A guard hits O'Neill over the head, knocking him out.''
