1
00:01:05,764 --> 00:01:07,755
Come on!
2
00:01:15,142 --> 00:01:17,133
It's right on top of us!
3
00:01:17,309 --> 00:01:19,929
Dial home, Captain!
That's an order!
4
00:01:38,857 --> 00:01:41,809
We're not gonna make it, sir!
5
00:01:41,983 --> 00:01:45,017
We'll make it! Dial now!
6
00:01:57,529 --> 00:02:02,946
Look, I know I should know this by now.
I swear, it'll be the last time I ask.
7
00:02:04,281 --> 00:02:06,687
But these wormholes we go through,...
8
00:02:06,865 --> 00:02:09,152
...they're not always there, right?
9
00:02:09,324 --> 00:02:12,940
No, sir. They can only form
between two open gates.
10
00:02:13,117 --> 00:02:15,606
What's with the worm part?
11
00:02:15,785 --> 00:02:17,941
The worm thing - I don't get that.
12
00:02:18,119 --> 00:02:21,320
Uh... That's just a metaphor.
13
00:02:21,495 --> 00:02:24,066
Right. I knew that.
14
00:02:28,038 --> 00:02:30,492
Imagine the galaxy is an apple.
15
00:02:30,664 --> 00:02:33,616
We burrow our way
through the apple like a worm,...
16
00:02:33,790 --> 00:02:38,247
...crossing from one side to the other,
instead of going around the outside.
17
00:02:40,292 --> 00:02:41,454
OK.
18
00:02:42,793 --> 00:02:47,498
Now, the diameter of the apple is just
a 2-D representation of space-time.
19
00:02:47,669 --> 00:02:50,241
Well, the hole isn't really a hole, per se,...
20
00:02:50,420 --> 00:02:52,541
...but an inter-dimensionaI conduit...
21
00:02:52,712 --> 00:02:53,660
Colonel?
22
00:02:54,754 --> 00:02:56,331
OK.
23
00:02:59,464 --> 00:03:01,041
I'll be all right.
24
00:03:01,215 --> 00:03:03,040
OK.
25
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,289
We've got an unscheduled
incoming traveller.
26
00:03:12,968 --> 00:03:14,545
Closing iris.
27
00:03:19,887 --> 00:03:21,878
We're getting a signal.
28
00:03:23,179 --> 00:03:26,712
- Who've we got out there?
- SG teams four, six and ten...
29
00:03:26,889 --> 00:03:29,674
...are the only units presently off world, sir.
30
00:03:29,848 --> 00:03:34,092
- Daniel's with six, isn't he?
- Yeah, he's on a dig on PX3-808.
31
00:03:34,266 --> 00:03:38,095
The computer can't identify the signal.
It's not a GDO transmission.
32
00:03:38,267 --> 00:03:40,009
Let me hear it, Lieutenant.
33
00:03:47,478 --> 00:03:50,761
Intermittent RF pulses, low frequency.
34
00:03:51,979 --> 00:03:56,555
- What have we got?
- Don't know, sir. Some kind of signal.
35
00:03:56,731 --> 00:04:01,769
There's a repeating pattern. Play it
through the computer again, a lot faster.
36
00:04:01,941 --> 00:04:03,766
I'm trying 200%.
37
00:04:07,692 --> 00:04:09,399
Go six.
38
00:04:13,527 --> 00:04:17,854
The computer now recognises the signal.
It's SG-10's iris code.
39
00:04:18,029 --> 00:04:19,985
That's Henry Boyd's team.
40
00:04:22,155 --> 00:04:24,774
Why would their code
be coming through so slowly?
41
00:04:24,947 --> 00:04:27,899
I have no idea, sir,
but if we don't open the iris...
42
00:04:28,073 --> 00:04:31,736
The next thud we hear...
will be Henry Boyd's team.
43
00:04:31,908 --> 00:04:33,449
Do it.
44
00:04:47,246 --> 00:04:49,652
Come on, Hank, the door's open.
45
00:04:57,832 --> 00:04:59,539
What happened?
46
00:04:59,708 --> 00:05:01,699
I don't know, sir.
47
00:05:01,875 --> 00:05:05,324
General, SG-1 would like
the rescue mission.
48
00:05:05,501 --> 00:05:08,583
- Not yet, Colonel.
- Hank would do the same for us.
49
00:05:08,752 --> 00:05:11,206
I know he would -
if and when I gave the order.
50
00:05:11,378 --> 00:05:15,242
In the meantime, I want a probe
on the ramp and ready to go ASAP
51
00:05:15,421 --> 00:05:19,285
Colonel, have units SG-1 and 3
geared up and standing by.
52
00:06:35,736 --> 00:06:39,398
SG-10 was on a routine
exploratory mission of P3W-451.
53
00:06:39,570 --> 00:06:42,522
It's a binary system.
We just discovered it.
54
00:06:42,696 --> 00:06:45,481
- Any indications of enemy attack?
- None.
55
00:06:45,655 --> 00:06:47,777
The one thing Boyd reported was that...
56
00:06:47,948 --> 00:06:52,488
...whatever indigenous life there may have
been on 451 recently became extinct.
57
00:06:52,657 --> 00:06:55,147
They were trying to determine the cause.
58
00:06:55,325 --> 00:06:57,944
In the event I authorise this mission,...
59
00:06:58,117 --> 00:07:00,108
...SG-3 will back you up.
60
00:07:02,243 --> 00:07:05,444
- In the event, sir?
- Chevron three encoded.
61
00:07:05,619 --> 00:07:08,453
Let's see what pictures
the probe sends back.
62
00:07:08,620 --> 00:07:12,911
Make a proper threat determination.
You could gate into an ambush...
63
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:17,739
I recommended Major Boyd for this.
If he's in trouble, I want to go in.
64
00:07:17,915 --> 00:07:19,657
I'm aware of that, Colonel.
65
00:07:19,832 --> 00:07:21,823
Chevron four encoded.
66
00:07:21,999 --> 00:07:23,706
Yes, sir.
67
00:07:29,293 --> 00:07:30,621
Chevron five encoded.
68
00:07:30,794 --> 00:07:34,788
Major Boyd is a capable warrior, O'Neill.
You trained him well.
69
00:07:37,545 --> 00:07:38,920
Yeah.
70
00:07:42,297 --> 00:07:44,288
Chevron six encoded.
71
00:07:51,383 --> 00:07:53,504
Chevron seven locked.
72
00:07:58,051 --> 00:08:00,043
OK for MALP transports.
73
00:08:10,847 --> 00:08:14,260
Probe should reach
the Stargate of P3W-451...
74
00:08:14,431 --> 00:08:17,798
...in five seconds... four... three,...
75
00:08:17,974 --> 00:08:19,254
...two,...
76
00:08:19,433 --> 00:08:20,595
.. now.
77
00:08:25,726 --> 00:08:27,801
I don't understand. It's just...
78
00:08:28,894 --> 00:08:30,387
Red, sir.
79
00:08:30,561 --> 00:08:32,552
Are we receiving telemetry?
80
00:08:32,645 --> 00:08:36,058
Yes, sir, but
at an even slower rate than before.
81
00:08:36,229 --> 00:08:37,806
There is an image here.
82
00:08:37,938 --> 00:08:40,143
Input the video feed into the computer but
83
00:08:40,314 --> 00:08:42,637
compensate for a
longer light wavelength.
84
00:08:42,815 --> 00:08:45,979
- Step it up in 20 millimicron increments.
- Captain?
85
00:08:46,149 --> 00:08:50,096
Sir, it's possible that the image
from the probe has red shifted,...
86
00:08:50,275 --> 00:08:53,227
...distorted toward
the infrared end of the spectrum.
87
00:08:53,401 --> 00:08:54,681
Why?
88
00:08:54,860 --> 00:08:57,230
The same reason
their codes were so slow.
89
00:08:57,402 --> 00:08:59,144
Yeah.
90
00:08:59,319 --> 00:09:00,861
Whatever that is.
91
00:09:02,737 --> 00:09:04,360
It's working.
92
00:09:15,574 --> 00:09:17,565
What the hell's goin' on, Hank?
93
00:09:19,325 --> 00:09:23,735
- Is something pursuing them?
- Try playing back the video in real time.
94
00:09:23,910 --> 00:09:27,656
- We need to find out...
- This is all we've received so far, sir.
95
00:09:27,828 --> 00:09:31,159
Eleven frames of digitaI picture
in the last six minutes.
96
00:09:31,329 --> 00:09:35,573
- That represents a fraction of a second.
- Perhaps a malfunction.
97
00:09:35,747 --> 00:09:39,445
No, the picture tells us
everything we need to know.
98
00:09:39,623 --> 00:09:42,990
That team is in trouble.
Probably under attack.
99
00:09:43,166 --> 00:09:45,406
- Permission to go in, sir?
- Negative, sir.
100
00:09:46,417 --> 00:09:48,123
What do you mean, negative?
101
00:09:50,209 --> 00:09:54,915
I'm sorry, Colonel. With all due respect.
But if I'm right, we can't help them.
102
00:09:56,253 --> 00:10:01,125
The camera may respond to commands.
See if you can tilt up for a wider image.
103
00:10:01,296 --> 00:10:04,912
I think I know what
Major Boyd seems so afraid of.
104
00:10:13,091 --> 00:10:16,173
There! Isolate that area
and digitally enhance.
105
00:10:25,470 --> 00:10:28,883
- What am I looking at?
- That's a black hole, sir.
106
00:10:29,054 --> 00:10:31,674
A newly formed one,
by the looks of it.
107
00:10:31,847 --> 00:10:37,050
P3W-451 was orbiting its companion star.
The orbit's probably pulling them closer.
108
00:10:37,223 --> 00:10:40,092
Why don't they just gate out of there?
109
00:10:40,266 --> 00:10:43,181
They're trying to,
but the closer you get to a black hole...
110
00:10:43,350 --> 00:10:45,258
Time slows down.
111
00:10:47,726 --> 00:10:49,883
It almost appears to stand still.
112
00:10:50,060 --> 00:10:51,719
From our perspective, yes.
113
00:10:51,894 --> 00:10:55,225
But time is relative.
As far as SG-10 is concerned...
114
00:10:55,395 --> 00:10:59,390
...only a few seconds have passed.
They're still trying to save themselves.
115
00:10:59,563 --> 00:11:01,270
What will happen to them?
116
00:11:01,439 --> 00:11:06,097
Time dilation is a result of the intense
gravity, which is directly proportionaI...
117
00:11:06,273 --> 00:11:08,264
Captain!
118
00:11:09,566 --> 00:11:10,810
Sorry, sir.
119
00:11:14,276 --> 00:11:17,689
Their bodies will be pulled apart
by increasing tidaI forces.
120
00:11:21,111 --> 00:11:24,229
They did manage
to activate the Stargate once.
121
00:11:24,404 --> 00:11:27,651
But to them, it can't have been open
for more than a second.
122
00:11:27,821 --> 00:11:30,737
There's nothing we can do to save them?
123
00:11:30,905 --> 00:11:32,861
They've had it, sir.
124
00:11:33,031 --> 00:11:36,480
- You know that for a fact, Colonel?
- No, sir, I don't.
125
00:11:36,657 --> 00:11:39,905
But look at Major Boyd's face.
What does that say to you?
126
00:11:45,576 --> 00:11:48,741
Very well. Disengage the Stargate.
127
00:11:48,911 --> 00:11:50,819
Sir...
128
00:11:50,995 --> 00:11:52,986
By some fluke of technology,...
129
00:11:53,162 --> 00:11:57,074
...we are witnessing something
that the laws of physics say we can't.
130
00:11:57,247 --> 00:12:01,158
We are witnessing good men
dying in slow motion, Captain.
131
00:12:05,666 --> 00:12:07,159
You're right, sir.
132
00:12:09,583 --> 00:12:10,958
Shut it down.
133
00:12:19,461 --> 00:12:20,623
Sir,...
134
00:12:20,795 --> 00:12:22,786
...it won't disengage.
135
00:12:22,962 --> 00:12:24,835
- Try again.
- I already have, sir.
136
00:12:25,005 --> 00:12:26,166
Twice.
137
00:12:26,338 --> 00:12:28,211
It won't shut down.
138
00:12:40,634 --> 00:12:43,384
Let's go! Let's go! Move! Move!
139
00:12:58,264 --> 00:13:01,845
Sergeant, how long have you been
out of contact with this facility?
140
00:13:02,015 --> 00:13:04,386
Coming up four hours ago, sir.
141
00:13:04,558 --> 00:13:07,012
But it was funky for a while before that.
142
00:13:07,184 --> 00:13:11,428
Is that proper military terminology?
What does "funky" mean, Sergeant?
143
00:13:11,602 --> 00:13:16,640
Everyone was talkin' real slow, like when
the battery's down on your Walkman.
144
00:13:16,811 --> 00:13:18,554
Uh-huh.
145
00:13:19,604 --> 00:13:22,768
Will that shaft take me
directly to sub-level 28?
146
00:13:22,938 --> 00:13:25,723
Yes, sir, but I don't know
how you're gonna get down.
147
00:13:25,897 --> 00:13:27,439
Not to worry.
148
00:13:27,606 --> 00:13:31,187
We brought our own transportation.
Gentlemen, hook 'em up!
149
00:13:36,984 --> 00:13:38,561
Rig it!
150
00:13:39,985 --> 00:13:41,561
Clear!
151
00:13:45,653 --> 00:13:47,644
This is Major General Hammond.
152
00:13:47,821 --> 00:13:51,234
I have an urgent matter
to discuss with the president.
153
00:14:00,699 --> 00:14:04,031
Sergeant, try disconnecting
the superconductive interface.
154
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,606
Already tried that, Captain. It's stuck.
155
00:14:06,784 --> 00:14:09,819
- Teal'c, Siler could use a hand.
- I will assist.
156
00:14:17,246 --> 00:14:20,577
- Captain Carter.
- I was just on my way to report, sir.
157
00:14:20,747 --> 00:14:25,322
The capacitor should have discharged,
but the gate is drawing power directly.
158
00:14:25,498 --> 00:14:29,445
Isn't there a time limit to how long
a wormhole can be maintained?
159
00:14:29,624 --> 00:14:31,616
Yes, sir, we just passed it.
160
00:14:31,792 --> 00:14:33,783
Then how is this possible?
161
00:14:33,959 --> 00:14:38,783
I'd guess that since time is passing more
slowly on P3W-451 relative to Earth,...
162
00:14:38,961 --> 00:14:43,500
...we're experiencing a paradox
the Stargate was never designed for.
163
00:14:48,255 --> 00:14:50,661
Why in God's name is it doing that?
164
00:14:52,756 --> 00:14:54,831
I've no idea, sir.
165
00:14:55,007 --> 00:14:58,124
It started after you got on line
with the president, sir.
166
00:14:58,300 --> 00:15:01,713
- I never got through to him.
- Beg your pardon, sir.
167
00:15:01,884 --> 00:15:05,132
It seems we've lost communication
below sub-level 24.
168
00:15:05,302 --> 00:15:08,549
- Nearest secure phone above that?
- NORAD, sir. Main level.
169
00:15:08,719 --> 00:15:12,417
- I won't be long. Meantime, Colonel...
- Understood, sir.
170
00:15:15,221 --> 00:15:16,798
Carter...
171
00:15:17,930 --> 00:15:21,095
What would happen
if we just... pulled the plug?
172
00:15:31,976 --> 00:15:35,177
OK, Carter. We've reached
the main power vault.
173
00:15:35,352 --> 00:15:37,676
We'll isolate the capacitors first.
174
00:15:38,811 --> 00:15:40,269
Panel six.
175
00:15:40,437 --> 00:15:44,514
Colonel, pull breakers
90 through 94 on panel 6.
176
00:15:45,730 --> 00:15:47,935
Roger that. Stand by.
177
00:15:52,149 --> 00:15:53,725
Stand clear, people.
178
00:15:53,899 --> 00:15:56,104
I have no idea what this is gonna do.
179
00:15:57,233 --> 00:15:59,639
We must vacate this area.
180
00:16:04,902 --> 00:16:06,977
We're kinda shortin' out up here.
181
00:16:07,153 --> 00:16:09,191
- Main breaker?
- It'll overload.
182
00:16:09,362 --> 00:16:10,440
We gotta do it.
183
00:16:10,612 --> 00:16:12,604
Colonel, pull the main breaker.
184
00:16:16,114 --> 00:16:17,276
On...
185
00:16:17,448 --> 00:16:19,190
...three, two, one!
186
00:16:36,620 --> 00:16:38,825
Colonel, are you all right?
187
00:16:38,996 --> 00:16:40,987
Medical emergency in the gate room!
188
00:16:42,872 --> 00:16:45,195
Colonel, are you all right?
189
00:16:51,583 --> 00:16:54,368
Siler's hurt. Did it work?
190
00:16:54,542 --> 00:16:57,245
No. Even with the power cut,
it won't shut down.
191
00:16:57,418 --> 00:16:59,741
How's that possible?
192
00:16:59,918 --> 00:17:02,621
It must be deriving its energy
from the black hole.
193
00:17:02,794 --> 00:17:07,998
- Get a med team to the main power vault.
- Med team to the main power vault!
194
00:17:08,171 --> 00:17:10,956
The MALP is now
on emergency internal power.
195
00:17:17,424 --> 00:17:19,415
Help's on the way.
196
00:17:21,758 --> 00:17:24,212
Do not concern yourself with my injury.
197
00:17:24,384 --> 00:17:27,383
You're badly burned, Teal'c. Even for you.
198
00:17:32,636 --> 00:17:34,260
The Stargate...
199
00:17:52,517 --> 00:17:54,508
Lieutenant, close the iris!
200
00:17:54,685 --> 00:17:57,849
It's an outgoing wormhole.
Nothing can come through.
201
00:17:58,019 --> 00:18:01,053
Except for the black hole's gravity!
Now, close it!
202
00:18:01,228 --> 00:18:03,385
Close the iris.
203
00:18:16,649 --> 00:18:19,767
- Hold fire! It's the general!
- What's going on? Who are you?
204
00:18:19,942 --> 00:18:22,894
Major Davis, sir.
Office of the Joint Chiefs. Come with me.
205
00:18:23,068 --> 00:18:26,269
- Why are these men here?
- We were under the impression...
206
00:18:26,444 --> 00:18:28,435
...there had been an alien incursion.
207
00:18:28,611 --> 00:18:31,776
Special Forces were sent
before we knew what was going on.
208
00:18:31,945 --> 00:18:35,526
I'll brief you on the way to your aircraft.
Time is of the essence.
209
00:18:35,697 --> 00:18:40,154
We've got an emergency situation!
I'm not leaving until I talk to the president.
210
00:18:40,323 --> 00:18:42,693
He wants to see you personally, sir.
211
00:18:42,865 --> 00:18:47,571
Your aircraft is standing by on the tarmac.
It is urgent that we leave immediately.
212
00:18:47,742 --> 00:18:49,982
Lead the way.
213
00:18:57,870 --> 00:19:00,406
Freeze! Up against the wall! Move! Move!
214
00:19:01,788 --> 00:19:03,364
Tags!
215
00:19:06,706 --> 00:19:09,740
- Dr. Fraiser.
- Who the hell are you? Put that down!
216
00:19:09,915 --> 00:19:12,867
Colonel Frank Cromwell -
Air Force Special Operations.
217
00:19:13,041 --> 00:19:17,664
Five hours ago, all contact was lost with
this facility. I am here to find out why.
218
00:19:17,834 --> 00:19:18,782
Colonel,...
219
00:19:18,959 --> 00:19:20,950
...there's a medical emergency!
220
00:19:21,127 --> 00:19:24,493
My superiors believe the SGC
has been overrun by alien hostiles.
221
00:19:24,669 --> 00:19:26,874
Well, they've been misinformed.
222
00:19:27,045 --> 00:19:31,953
From what I have read about this place,
Dr. Fraiser, hell, you could be one of 'em!
223
00:19:32,130 --> 00:19:34,086
Move out!
224
00:19:34,255 --> 00:19:35,832
Sector six!
225
00:19:46,842 --> 00:19:50,174
We hoped that someone like you
would confirm our hypothesis.
226
00:19:50,343 --> 00:19:52,749
- Which is?
- We now know...
227
00:19:52,927 --> 00:19:56,128
...the SGC is experiencing
what is called "time dilation".
228
00:19:56,303 --> 00:20:00,133
Time is literally passing slower
within the facility than it is topside.
229
00:20:00,305 --> 00:20:02,758
Hence the communications problems.
230
00:20:02,930 --> 00:20:06,676
Yes, sir. We also know that
only two things could cause this effect.
231
00:20:06,848 --> 00:20:10,131
Velocities near the speed of light,
or extreme gravity.
232
00:20:10,308 --> 00:20:15,511
Approximately ten minutes ago
we established a wormhole to a planet...
233
00:20:15,684 --> 00:20:18,849
...at or very near
the event horizon of a black hole.
234
00:20:19,018 --> 00:20:22,432
Since time is nearly at a standstill
on the other side,...
235
00:20:22,603 --> 00:20:25,471
...you've been unable
to disengage the Stargate.
236
00:20:25,645 --> 00:20:30,932
That was our hypothesis. Keep in mind
we've had more time to think about it.
237
00:20:31,105 --> 00:20:34,686
They'll be conferencing you
with the president on the aircraft.
238
00:20:34,856 --> 00:20:36,018
Thank you, Major.
239
00:20:36,190 --> 00:20:37,600
Good luck, sir.
240
00:21:01,823 --> 00:21:03,814
Siler took a pretty good hit.
241
00:21:03,990 --> 00:21:05,697
How're you doing, Teal'c?
242
00:21:05,866 --> 00:21:09,991
I suffered simple electrical burns,
O'Neill. Nothing more.
243
00:21:10,158 --> 00:21:13,490
He'll be out of commission for a few days.
244
00:21:16,577 --> 00:21:17,739
Carter?
245
00:21:17,911 --> 00:21:21,573
Gravity waves. I assumed
the wormhole would insulate us...
246
00:21:21,745 --> 00:21:24,661
...from the black hole's gravitationaI field.
247
00:21:24,829 --> 00:21:27,994
But our space-time has begun to warp,
just like on P3W-451.
248
00:21:28,164 --> 00:21:29,657
Will you stop that!
249
00:21:31,415 --> 00:21:34,532
- We're in trouble, sir.
- Thank you.
250
00:21:37,416 --> 00:21:39,657
Think of something.
251
00:21:40,626 --> 00:21:42,202
Yes, sir.
252
00:21:47,794 --> 00:21:49,786
Colonel!
253
00:21:49,962 --> 00:21:51,953
Clear!
254
00:21:55,213 --> 00:21:58,248
- Cromwell?
- You know this guy, sir?
255
00:21:58,423 --> 00:22:00,414
Oh, yeah.
256
00:22:00,590 --> 00:22:01,917
Go. Go on.
257
00:22:08,050 --> 00:22:09,840
Been a while.
258
00:22:10,009 --> 00:22:11,419
Yeah.
259
00:22:11,593 --> 00:22:12,967
Five hours.
260
00:22:13,135 --> 00:22:16,715
You've got everybody worried upstairs.
Where's the general?
261
00:22:16,886 --> 00:22:19,173
What's the five hours?
262
00:22:19,345 --> 00:22:22,510
That's how long this facility
has been out of contact.
263
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,134
The Pentagon suspects alien hostiles.
264
00:22:27,348 --> 00:22:29,054
And they sent you?
265
00:22:41,644 --> 00:22:43,967
So, this is the Stargate?
266
00:22:46,353 --> 00:22:49,269
- What's the problem?
- We gated to a planet...
267
00:22:49,438 --> 00:22:51,761
...that's being sucked up by a black hole.
268
00:22:54,064 --> 00:22:56,055
Very bad. Very dangerous.
269
00:22:56,231 --> 00:22:58,222
Why is that?
270
00:22:59,816 --> 00:23:01,807
Things tend to get sucked in.
271
00:23:05,401 --> 00:23:10,392
- I took the liberty of closing the iris, sir.
- Captain Carter, Colonel Cromwell.
272
00:23:11,361 --> 00:23:13,268
He's come to rescue us.
273
00:23:14,570 --> 00:23:16,146
But don't count on it.
274
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:20,018
The Pentagon thought you were
under alien attack when they lost contact.
275
00:23:20,197 --> 00:23:23,065
- How long ago?
- A little over five hours ago. Why?
276
00:23:24,239 --> 00:23:27,072
My watch reads 1330 hours.
What does yours say?
277
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,156
Running slow, Captain. It's almost 1900.
278
00:23:30,324 --> 00:23:32,446
Damn it! I have to get off this level.
279
00:23:32,617 --> 00:23:35,284
Captain Carter?
280
00:23:36,034 --> 00:23:38,156
What have you got, Lieutenant?
281
00:23:38,327 --> 00:23:41,444
The field is expanding.
282
00:23:43,537 --> 00:23:47,152
I'm reading
over seven G's at the iris.
283
00:23:47,329 --> 00:23:48,871
Keep your distance.
284
00:23:49,372 --> 00:23:50,746
Sir...
285
00:23:50,914 --> 00:23:55,703
The warping of our space-time seems to
be in advance of the gravitationaI field...
286
00:23:55,874 --> 00:23:57,865
...rather than as a result of it.
287
00:23:58,041 --> 00:24:01,490
It's probably a lensing effect
generated by the Stargate.
288
00:24:04,334 --> 00:24:08,661
- Don't even pretend you understood that.
- The point is, sirs,...
289
00:24:08,836 --> 00:24:11,788
...time is passing more slowly
down here than it is outside.
290
00:24:11,962 --> 00:24:14,996
- Time is time.
- No, sir, not according to relativity.
291
00:24:15,171 --> 00:24:18,952
With the intense gravity field
of a black hole, time slows down.
292
00:24:19,130 --> 00:24:22,793
- We are not in a black hole.
- Not yet.
293
00:24:22,965 --> 00:24:27,042
But we are connected to
its gravitationaI field through the Stargate.
294
00:24:27,216 --> 00:24:29,207
It's expanding in this direction...
295
00:24:29,383 --> 00:24:33,544
...like a bubble slowly extending outward.
That's why I have to leave, sir.
296
00:24:33,718 --> 00:24:38,839
I have to contact the Pentagon before the
gravity field extends past the gate room.
297
00:24:39,011 --> 00:24:43,421
I just came from there myself, Captain.
Colonel Cromwell, I believe.
298
00:24:43,596 --> 00:24:45,421
General Hammond.
299
00:24:45,597 --> 00:24:48,928
- You came from Washington, sir?
- There and back again.
300
00:24:49,098 --> 00:24:52,927
After someone upstairs managed
to explain what was going on to me...
301
00:24:53,099 --> 00:24:58,137
...we called an all-night session with the
president. I've been gone nearly 18 hours.
302
00:24:59,642 --> 00:25:02,132
I thought you were on the phone.
303
00:25:02,310 --> 00:25:05,262
The time dilation is getting worse
as the field expands.
304
00:25:05,436 --> 00:25:08,470
That's the consensus.
We've set up a command post...
305
00:25:08,645 --> 00:25:11,928
...right on top of the mountain
to monitor the expansion.
306
00:25:12,104 --> 00:25:16,229
- I have to get up there.
- The experts we consulted believe...
307
00:25:16,397 --> 00:25:19,977
...we have to begin an autodestruct
sequence to destroy the Stargate.
308
00:25:20,148 --> 00:25:21,890
Sweet.
309
00:25:22,066 --> 00:25:24,306
They assure me that the gravity field...
310
00:25:24,483 --> 00:25:28,608
...now present around the gate will contain
the blast within the mountain...
311
00:25:28,776 --> 00:25:31,691
...and pose no threat to civilians.
312
00:25:31,860 --> 00:25:35,061
- With respect, sir, I don't think so.
- If we don't try,...
313
00:25:35,236 --> 00:25:38,484
...we lose the planet, right through that.
314
00:25:38,654 --> 00:25:43,608
We may succeed in destroying the base,
but leave the gate and wormhole intact.
315
00:25:43,780 --> 00:25:45,771
What happens to the planet then?
316
00:25:45,948 --> 00:25:50,322
Orders have been given, Captain.
It is our duty to carry out those orders.
317
00:25:50,491 --> 00:25:52,861
- But, sir...
- The decision has been made.
318
00:25:53,033 --> 00:25:56,695
Those people up there have been working
on this longer than you have.
319
00:25:56,867 --> 00:25:59,617
- It's what they came up with.
- Yes, sir.
320
00:25:59,785 --> 00:26:03,401
I'm ordering the evacuation of the SGC,
effective as of right now.
321
00:26:03,578 --> 00:26:09,114
I'll need two volunteers to stay behind in
order to give our personnel a head start.
322
00:26:09,288 --> 00:26:11,955
- I'll stay, sir.
- Me too, sir.
323
00:26:15,039 --> 00:26:17,031
Anyone else?
324
00:26:19,457 --> 00:26:21,863
Looks like you're stuck with me, Jack.
325
00:26:22,792 --> 00:26:26,288
Done! It takes two officers
to initiate the countdown.
326
00:26:28,335 --> 00:26:30,659
Attention! This is General Hammond.
327
00:26:31,753 --> 00:26:36,162
All personnel are ordered to
evacuate this facility immediately.
328
00:26:36,337 --> 00:26:37,451
Repeat!
329
00:26:37,629 --> 00:26:41,162
All personnel report to
the main level immediately.
330
00:26:42,131 --> 00:26:44,122
That is all.
331
00:26:44,298 --> 00:26:46,289
Let's move it. On my count.
332
00:26:46,465 --> 00:26:48,622
Three, two, one.
333
00:26:48,799 --> 00:26:50,790
Easy. Watch his chest.
334
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:53,791
Move him out. Let's go.
335
00:26:57,260 --> 00:26:59,547
Wait five minutes,
then start the countdown.
336
00:26:59,719 --> 00:27:01,212
- Good luck.
- Thanks, sir.
337
00:27:01,386 --> 00:27:05,002
Make sure you give yourself
enough time to get out, sir.
338
00:27:05,179 --> 00:27:06,756
Time...
339
00:27:06,930 --> 00:27:08,043
Right.
340
00:27:28,144 --> 00:27:30,301
General, we were getting worried.
341
00:27:30,478 --> 00:27:32,932
- How long have I been gone?
- 22 hours, sir.
342
00:27:33,104 --> 00:27:36,268
- General Cohen's waiting for you.
- Thank you, Sergeant.
343
00:27:36,438 --> 00:27:41,512
- I reckon I was gone 20 minutes.
- Well, sir, accounting for travelling time...
344
00:27:41,690 --> 00:27:47,060
...I'd guess time within the SGC facility
has slowed to about 600% below normal.
345
00:27:47,233 --> 00:27:52,271
You ordered O'Neill to wait five minutes -
that's really six hours, maybe more.
346
00:27:52,443 --> 00:27:55,062
Captain, relativity gives me a headache.
347
00:28:03,404 --> 00:28:06,569
- Who's this?
- Henry Boyd.
348
00:28:06,739 --> 00:28:08,860
Good officer.
349
00:28:09,031 --> 00:28:10,608
Smart.
350
00:28:13,699 --> 00:28:16,235
And he reminds me of Carter a little bit.
351
00:28:18,659 --> 00:28:21,148
This was their first mission as a team.
352
00:28:21,326 --> 00:28:23,448
He looks scared to death.
353
00:28:23,619 --> 00:28:27,365
He's on a planet that's about to be
swallowed up by a black hole.
354
00:28:27,537 --> 00:28:29,528
And he knows it.
355
00:28:41,916 --> 00:28:43,492
Thank you.
356
00:28:47,667 --> 00:28:50,073
Uh... No. Thank you.
357
00:29:01,046 --> 00:29:03,500
Perhaps with rest the answers will come.
358
00:29:03,672 --> 00:29:05,462
Hey, Teal'c.
359
00:29:06,423 --> 00:29:09,042
You know anything
about quantum gravity?
360
00:29:12,716 --> 00:29:14,589
Nothing.
361
00:29:14,759 --> 00:29:16,750
Apparently, neither do I.
362
00:29:17,926 --> 00:29:21,708
- What do these equations represent?
- Probably a life's work.
363
00:29:23,345 --> 00:29:26,130
I don't have that much time,
unfortunately.
364
00:29:33,264 --> 00:29:35,255
How may I be of assistance?
365
00:29:38,099 --> 00:29:43,256
We're experiencing a time dilation,
in a radius wider than the gate room itself.
366
00:29:43,434 --> 00:29:45,888
Most of the SGC, in fact,
and it's expanding.
367
00:29:46,059 --> 00:29:49,971
But it's all happening in advance
of the gravity field that's causing it.
368
00:29:50,144 --> 00:29:54,637
According to everything I thought I knew
about relativity, that is not possible.
369
00:29:54,812 --> 00:29:56,554
- Yet it is so.
- Right.
370
00:29:56,729 --> 00:29:59,397
If it wasn't,
we'd all be pulled apart by now.
371
00:30:01,439 --> 00:30:05,849
They're proceeding with a plan
that makes assumptions about gravity...
372
00:30:06,024 --> 00:30:11,015
...and space-time, with no regard for the
fact that it contradicts our observations.
373
00:30:11,192 --> 00:30:13,397
I see.
374
00:30:13,568 --> 00:30:16,981
In other words, they don't know
what the hell is going on,...
375
00:30:17,152 --> 00:30:19,190
...so they're just gonna blow it up.
376
00:30:21,278 --> 00:30:23,981
There doesn't seem to be
a damn thing we can do.
377
00:30:32,823 --> 00:30:35,110
Let's get set up.
378
00:30:36,908 --> 00:30:42,195
The computer needs your code before it'll
accept the command. Go on and enter it.
379
00:30:55,163 --> 00:30:57,783
Maybe now you know how it feels.
380
00:30:57,956 --> 00:30:59,532
You done?
381
00:31:01,540 --> 00:31:02,914
Roger that.
382
00:31:03,082 --> 00:31:06,330
When the time comes,
hit the enter key on my mark...
383
00:31:08,709 --> 00:31:10,700
...and then run like hell.
384
00:31:12,418 --> 00:31:14,409
Got it.
385
00:31:19,795 --> 00:31:21,585
Two minutes.
386
00:31:34,550 --> 00:31:39,457
The gravity field reaches the blast doors
of the control room now. That's not good.
387
00:31:39,634 --> 00:31:42,503
I take it you still believe
our plan won't work.
388
00:31:44,344 --> 00:31:48,670
I'm afraid the gravity field
will dampen the effects of the explosion.
389
00:31:48,845 --> 00:31:51,761
We'll lose the SGC,
but the wormhole will be intact.
390
00:31:51,930 --> 00:31:55,877
The mountain will collapse into it.
Six months later, all of Colorado.
391
00:31:56,056 --> 00:31:57,430
Six months after that...
392
00:32:00,516 --> 00:32:02,756
At least Daniel will live out there.
393
00:32:02,933 --> 00:32:05,504
If you're wrong,
and for once I hope you are,...
394
00:32:05,684 --> 00:32:09,382
...we can restart the SGC with
the second Stargate at Nellis. In time...
395
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:10,804
Wait a minute.
396
00:32:10,977 --> 00:32:13,680
Sir, that's it.
397
00:32:13,853 --> 00:32:17,599
We do use a bomb, but we focus
the energy of the blast.
398
00:32:17,771 --> 00:32:20,686
Colonel O'Neill and I
were sent to the Antarctic gate...
399
00:32:20,855 --> 00:32:23,012
...because we were under enemy fire.
400
00:32:23,189 --> 00:32:25,014
It caused an energy surge.
401
00:32:25,189 --> 00:32:30,560
Yes, and that surge caused the wormhole
to jump from one destination to another.
402
00:32:30,733 --> 00:32:34,858
If we can channel enough energy
in the direction of our Stargate,...
403
00:32:35,026 --> 00:32:39,519
...it should cut us off from the black hole,
causing the matter stream to jump...
404
00:32:39,694 --> 00:32:43,440
- ...to another gate.
- Leaving ours linked to some other world.
405
00:32:43,611 --> 00:32:45,852
Yes, but all we have to do is shut it down.
406
00:32:46,029 --> 00:32:48,862
Sir, we have to stop Colonel O'Neill.
407
00:33:00,616 --> 00:33:02,193
One minute.
408
00:33:07,535 --> 00:33:09,526
Maybe the last one.
409
00:33:20,664 --> 00:33:22,454
We used to be friends, Jack.
410
00:33:24,665 --> 00:33:26,123
Yep.
411
00:33:26,291 --> 00:33:30,072
I was sick to my stomach
when I found out you were still alive.
412
00:33:30,250 --> 00:33:32,076
I wanted to go back for you.
413
00:33:34,543 --> 00:33:37,625
Why don't we just do this
and get the hell out of here?
414
00:33:37,794 --> 00:33:41,540
Somebody dropped a dime on us!
You got hit! You went down!
415
00:33:41,712 --> 00:33:44,283
I made a judgement call to save the team!
416
00:33:44,463 --> 00:33:46,916
And I saw you take off!
417
00:33:47,088 --> 00:33:51,166
And then I spent four months of my life
in some stinking Iraqi prison!
418
00:33:51,340 --> 00:33:54,208
- I thought you were dead!
- You thought wrong!
419
00:33:57,133 --> 00:34:01,258
What do you want? You want me
to forgive you? Is that it?
420
00:34:04,594 --> 00:34:06,170
Yeah.
421
00:34:06,844 --> 00:34:08,835
I guess I do.
422
00:34:09,011 --> 00:34:11,299
Well, that's tough.
423
00:34:11,471 --> 00:34:14,304
What happened to
"Nobody gets left behind"?
424
00:34:14,471 --> 00:34:15,929
Well, what about him?
425
00:34:17,722 --> 00:34:19,927
That is a totally different scenario.
426
00:34:20,098 --> 00:34:23,429
That is the same damn thing, Jack!
427
00:34:36,978 --> 00:34:40,012
Don't activate the autodestruct!
It won't work.
428
00:34:40,187 --> 00:34:42,178
I have another idea.
429
00:35:00,402 --> 00:35:04,776
The G-suits should help you withstand
the higher gravity on the way down.
430
00:35:04,945 --> 00:35:07,564
- What's this bomb?
- It's a shaped charge.
431
00:35:07,737 --> 00:35:11,435
To focus the explosive force
toward the wormhole so that it jumps.
432
00:35:11,613 --> 00:35:13,604
Like in Antarctica.
433
00:35:13,780 --> 00:35:15,155
Right.
434
00:35:15,323 --> 00:35:18,274
- Where is it?
- They're modifying the warhead yield.
435
00:35:18,448 --> 00:35:21,566
- It's being flown in from Travis.
- How long will it take?
436
00:35:21,741 --> 00:35:24,657
Well, sir, with any luck,
about five more minutes.
437
00:35:24,825 --> 00:35:27,908
- Relatively...
- Relatively speaking.
438
00:35:28,076 --> 00:35:29,653
...speaking.
439
00:35:32,619 --> 00:35:34,741
Any time you're ready, sirs.
440
00:35:34,912 --> 00:35:38,823
- I don't know how long that iris will hold.
- We have to wait for the bomb.
441
00:35:51,375 --> 00:35:55,370
- You got better quick.
- It has, in fact, been several days.
442
00:35:55,543 --> 00:35:57,534
Yeah, I knew that.
443
00:35:57,710 --> 00:36:00,413
Those who don't have to be here
should go topside.
444
00:36:02,753 --> 00:36:04,127
Cromwell.
445
00:36:10,881 --> 00:36:13,121
Cannot the bomb
be detonated by remote?
446
00:36:13,298 --> 00:36:16,996
It has to be set a certain distance
from the gate and at an exact angle.
447
00:36:17,174 --> 00:36:20,837
The timer can't be set in advance
due to the variance in time dilation.
448
00:36:21,008 --> 00:36:24,754
- Man, she is...
- Way smarter than we are. I know.
449
00:37:13,232 --> 00:37:15,519
Just like old times, huh, Jack?
450
00:37:15,691 --> 00:37:17,066
Oh, yeah.
451
00:37:17,233 --> 00:37:19,224
Black holes, wormholes,...
452
00:37:20,109 --> 00:37:21,686
...old times.
453
00:37:27,570 --> 00:37:29,395
Sir?
454
00:37:29,570 --> 00:37:31,645
Thank you, Lieutenant.
455
00:37:31,821 --> 00:37:35,069
Do you think they'll be able
to shut it down, sir?
456
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,443
We'll know sometime tomorrow.
457
00:38:04,831 --> 00:38:08,825
Oh, yeah, yeah.
We're pulling some G's now.
458
00:38:08,998 --> 00:38:11,950
I feel like I've put on
a coupla hundred pounds!
459
00:38:12,124 --> 00:38:14,199
I wasn't gonna say anything.
460
00:38:19,918 --> 00:38:22,324
They appear to be moving very slowly.
461
00:38:22,502 --> 00:38:25,039
Only from our perspective.
462
00:38:25,212 --> 00:38:27,203
Uh, Captain...
463
00:38:33,881 --> 00:38:36,086
Colonel, look out! Colonel!
464
00:38:37,215 --> 00:38:40,379
Colonel, look out! Colonel!
465
00:38:40,549 --> 00:38:42,541
Did you hear that?
466
00:38:45,092 --> 00:38:46,171
Look out!
467
00:38:54,428 --> 00:38:56,052
Are you all right?
468
00:38:56,221 --> 00:38:59,966
This is close enough!
Set the timer! 20 seconds!
469
00:39:00,138 --> 00:39:02,675
- You won't make it out.
- 20 seconds!
470
00:39:20,644 --> 00:39:23,216
- It's set!
- Do it!
471
00:39:39,108 --> 00:39:42,391
- I've got you!
- Get up there and arm that damn bomb!
472
00:39:42,567 --> 00:39:44,808
- I've got you! Climb!
- Arm the bomb!
473
00:39:44,985 --> 00:39:47,142
Climb!
474
00:40:45,628 --> 00:40:47,749
Teal'c, pull him up!
475
00:41:45,478 --> 00:41:47,470
Hey, Jack, did I miss anything?
476
00:41:49,813 --> 00:41:51,804
I made it.
477
00:41:51,980 --> 00:41:54,814
We all made it,
thanks to you and Captain Carter.
478
00:41:57,607 --> 00:41:58,981
How?
479
00:41:59,149 --> 00:42:03,724
Teal'c managed to pull you far enough
away from the bomb before it went off.
480
00:42:04,859 --> 00:42:06,352
Thanks.
481
00:42:06,526 --> 00:42:09,146
You are welcome.
482
00:42:09,319 --> 00:42:11,855
Most of the blast went
where it was meant to.
483
00:42:12,028 --> 00:42:16,900
The wormhole jumped to P2A-870
and, once it did that, we just shut it off.
484
00:42:17,071 --> 00:42:19,774
Good thinking, Captain.
485
00:42:19,947 --> 00:42:21,654
Thank you, sir.
486
00:42:21,822 --> 00:42:25,520
A new trinium-strengthened iris
is being installed right now.
487
00:42:25,699 --> 00:42:28,105
We should be back in business in no time.
488
00:42:29,116 --> 00:42:31,107
What day is it?
489
00:42:34,201 --> 00:42:39,571
This might be a little difficult to accept but
since you reported for duty yesterday...
490
00:42:39,744 --> 00:42:42,234
...two weeks have actually gone by.
491
00:42:43,204 --> 00:42:45,195
Two weeks?
492
00:42:49,372 --> 00:42:51,363
Think I'll sleep in.
493
00:42:52,706 --> 00:42:54,863
You do that.
