Narrator: Previously on Stargate Atlantis.
Now I know definitely that the jumper is somewhere in this area.
Friendly or are you hungry?
It must be broadcasting at a frequency you can hear.
Sheppard: Descending through 1,000.
Zelenka: Your sea monster.
It's still swimming around in circles in the same area, which means...
I have the jumper. The animal's circling around it.
Sheppard: All you have to do is open your door and walk to my jumper.
(Whales echoing)
(McKay groaning)
McKay: Hey, pal. Sorry you don't get to eat me today.
He's the reason we found you.
Really?
Sheppard: Well, how did the camping go?
Zelenka: Oh, splendid.
I was able to run several ground-penetrating radar tests,
you know, to test the dielectric permittivity of the region's subsurface.
Sweet.
What about you? How was the hunting?
If there was any game,
it was all scared off by the noises his stupid machines made.
I said I was sorry. It was necessary for the tests.
You're the one who volunteered to go.
Well, if I do something like that again, shoot me.
He was like this all night, you know, very agitated. Had me scared.
He'll be all right.
Get him home, get him a nice warm bath, hot meal...
Oh, no. What?
Where's Atlantis?
It should be right in front of us.
Well, why isn't it?
(Stuttering) I don't know. Is it cloaked?
No, no, no. They would have radioed us about it.
So what are you saying? We're lost?
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Adjust your heading 40 degrees south.
The navigation system is off.
Why? I don't know.
It could be any of a number of reasons, you know,
clock drift, the fluctuations in the magnetosphere from the sunspots...
There it is.
(Zelenka exclaiming in Czech)
See? No harm, no foul.
You might wanna take Teyla up on her offer for meditation lessons.
Looks like you could use a little unwinding.
Just land this thing.
Teyla: And then slowly exhale,
allowing each breath to cleanse you,
restoring your body and spirit.
Feel your mind clearing,
open to all that surrounds you.
Embrace the silence.
(Snoring)
Ronon?
(Speaking in distorted foreign language)
I'm sorry. I do not understand.
Elizabeth. Did you get my e-mail?
(Sighs)
Which e-mail?
One of the seven today or one of the 18 yesterday?
I know, I'm being unusually persistent about this,
but that should only underscore its importance, yes?
We cannot keep all three zpms from the replicator takeover, Rodney.
We get one.
Now, I don't know how to make it any clearer for you.
Well, I felt if I could just have outlined the reasons for keeping them,
you know, bullet point, very brief.
It was 26 pages.
Well, I know, but if we hope to persuade Stargate command...
Okay, so tell me.
Who would you deprive of the other zpms?
The antarctic outpost?
Well, no, because they need it to power the chair to protect earth.
Okay, how about the odyssey, then?
They're getting the other zpm to help in their fight against the ori.
Rodney, we have enough power now to raise the shield
and cloak the city and dial home.
Please, can you start seeing the glass as half full?
Well, you mean one-third full.
No more e-mails.
(Both grunting)
(Groaning)
I'm sorry. You weren't expecting that?
I was tired. It was a long day.
To be honest, I...
You don't care much for meditation.
Never could sit still long enough for it.
All the more reason for you to consider...
What is it?
(Speaking distorted foreign language)
That woman.
What woman?
(Groaning)
(Gasps)
Hey, hey, what's wrong?
What?
Hmm.
Hey, how long have you been standing there?
Hour or so.
What? Why didn't you say anything? I feel like a...
Oh. It's the kidding.
What did you wanna show me?
Right there.
Wow. All that water.
Just wait for it.
It's my friend. He's back.
The scan's clean. No sign of any physical abnormality.
We've seen devices that mess with people's minds,
cause them to hallucinate things.
Aye, but they've always had corresponding neural activity
to indicate a problem.
No, I'm afraid for the moment, anyway,
there doesn't appear to be any physiological reasons
for her hallucinations.
Then why did she see what she saw?
I don't quite know.
Many ancestors died here recently.
During the replicator invasion the crew of the tria were all murdered.
Perhaps they attempted to ascend but were prevented from fully doing so,
trapped between this plane of existence and the next.
You mean ghosts?
You ask me, it's too much meditation.
Is she gonna be okay? I don't know.
Hopefully she just needs some rest. We've all been through quite a lot...
There you are. Rodney, I told you...
Oh, no, notyou. Lrnean Sheppard. Thank you.
Oh, I mean, not that I don't wanna talk to you
or that you can't be a part of this conversation.
In fact, I think you'll probably find it every bit as...
What are you saying?
Check it out. Foundit in the ancient database.
They have a whole subsection on indigenous lantian animal life.
Did you know that there was a lobster-like crustacean down there
the size of a buick?
(Exclaims)
And what is that?
That's Rodney's whale friend.
Ah, but not actually a whale.
Whale-like, but not a mammal. It's a fish. It's a big, big fish.
Did the ancients have a name for it?
Yeah. Flagecallus.
I know, they were terrible with naming things. I've just, um...
I've just called it "whale" for now.
And why are you studying this?
Oh, 'cause he's out there right now, circling the city.
Sheppard and I saw him.
Probably the very same whale that saved me last year
when I was trapped in that submerged jumper.
I thought Zelenka and I saved you?
Well, you did, technically, but only after Sam led you to me.
It's the whale. Sam?
I named him after Samantha Carter. Personal reasons.
You named him after Samantha Carter?
Well, Sam's a boy's name, too.
And how do you know he's a he?
Oh, because I cross-referenced the renderings in the database
with the whale outside, and you'll see the males have a rather prominent...
Oh, it's okay, never mind. I'll take your word for it.
I trust this little diversion isn't actually cutting into your work time?
Oh, no, no. No, of course not. No, I'm just dabbling in my free time.
All right, then, boys. Dabble away.
So these whales. Did the ancients say they're good eating?
Oh, you wouldn't.
I would.
(Woman chattering in distorted foreign language)
Hello?
Wait.
(Groaning)
(Speaking distorted foreign language)
You don't understand what the woman is saying?
No. I believe she is speaking in the ancestral tongue.
You said she's afraid. Of the burned man?
No. It is my sense that she's trying to help him.
Whatever it is she fears, I do not know.
Did you try to talk to her?
Yes, but she seems unaware of me.
It is as if I'm not even there.
If these are apparitions, why do you think they're appearing to you?
Too much meditation.
Something ronon said to me. Oh.
Well, there are those who believe that
meditation is a way of opening a door to the spiritual world.
If these are ancestors trapped between planes of existence,
perhaps they're trying to communicate something to me.
Maybe they believe I can help them to move on.
Heightmeyer: I don't know why she's experiencing these visions,
but she's always been one to shoulder a lot of emotional responsibility.
She may be carrying some guilt
over what happened to the ancients here recently.
Well, why? It certainly wasn't her fault.
No. No, of course not.
But somewhere deep inside her she may somehow feel complicit
in the actions that led up to their murders.
Iwiconfinue working with her and see if I can sort things out.
Okay, I'll make sure she gets some rest,
even if it means taking her off the next mission.
Oh, she does seem tired.
She hasn't been sleeping well,
and the last few days she's been complaining of headaches.
Dr. Beckett gave her a clean bill of health.
Well, we'll just keep an eye on her. Hopefully it'll all pass.
Let's hope so. Thank you.
(Sighs)
(Groaning)
Heightmeyer: So now both of you are seeing them?
Why do you suppose that is?
Well, that's why we've come to you.
Perhaps they believe that appearing to two people
will increase the chance their message will be heard.
If, in fact, they are trying to communicate something to us...
Or maybe it's just the power of suggestion.
It's been documented that when one person sees a ghost,
it won't be long before others around them see it, too.
You said it yourself, you've all been through a lot recently.
When's the last time you took a day off?
Exactly.
Have you seen any more apparitions?
Not recently.
How are the headaches?
Still have them.
Have you been able to sleep?
Perhaps Dr. Beckett can prescribe something for you.
For both of you.
Ah, there you are. You are not gonna believe this.
I've been monitoring Sam on the underwater scanner...
Stop calling him that. Why?
It's creepy. No, it's not. Look.
Here he is, circling the city. He's been doing it for a while. Won't leave.
You didn't feed him, did you?
No. Look, now, if I widen the scan...
Another whale. Yeah. Probably the mother.
That guy's the size of a football field.
Yeah, like a Canadian football field.
So the first one was a baby. Yeah.
Hey, wanna take a closer look?
Oh, radek. Didn't know anyone was here.
Do you need to usethe. Hunper? Yeah.
Gonna check out some whales. Rodney's on his way.
He's just taking some dramamine,
but, yeah, we can take another jumper.
Oh, just be careful.
I'm not too sure if I've fixed the navigational glitch.
The other jumpers might be affected as well.
Well, we won't go far. We'll stay within sight of the city.
Plus, you'll be tracking us from the control room.
I will? Oh, yes. Yes, I will.
Did you say whales?
These should help,
but don't take them
until you can have at least eight hours of uninterrupted rest.
(Scoffs)
Around here? When does that ever happen?
Well, both Dr. Heightmeyer and I think
you should take the time to make it happen.
All right. Thank you, Carson.
Thank you.
(Groaning)
You all right? Yeah, I'm fine.
I just never feel safe in these things underwater.
In space you're okay?
Yeah, of course I am. Why wouldn't I be?
Zelenka, you there? I'm here. Hello!
The whales are deeper now, less than a kilometer from you
in your 2 o'clock position.
Oh, there they are.
Should have a visual on them any moment now.
(Whales echoing)
There's Sam and there's mama.
We need to get a closer look.
(Chattering in foreign language)
Ronon?
You saw them, too?
All right, not too close now, okay?
We still have no idea what these things eat.
What? What is it?
Nothing. Just got a headache all of a sudden.
Where'd they go?
I don't know.
Oh. They're right in front of you.
Yeah, well, we're aware of that!
What's wrong? Now my head's hurting, too.
That's not a coincidence. I don't think so.
I'm pulling back. Good idea.
Perhaps it's the whales' echolocation mechanism.
It's creating uncomfortable vibrations which are...
Yes, radek. We are moving away. Try to keep up, okay?
Oh, my.
Sheppard: "Oh, my," what?
I'm detecting several more whales.
How many more?
Uh, dozens more.
They're still several kilometers away from you,
but they're heading towards you.
Rodney. What?
Your nose is bleeding.
Now you're all seeing them?
I just got word
that other people in the city are starting to see them, too.
Some see the burned man, others see the ancient woman,
and a few such as ronon here see what appear to be scientists.
There's something definitely going on around here.
In every sighting, two things remain constant,
all the apparitions are ancients
and they all seem pretty worried.
It is as if they are trying to warn us about something.
Zelenka: Dr. Weir?
Yes, radek?
You'd better come to the control room right away.
Be right there.
Weir: What's their status?
They're moving away from the whales.
Hopefully that will alleviate their pain.
John, this is Elizabeth.
How are you holdin' up?
Other than feeling like my head's about to explode, I'm fine.
(Whales echoing)
I thought we were moving away from them?
I'm trying to, but they're cutting us off.
What happened?
The whales are getting way too close.
(Groaning)
Crap.
John, what's going on there?
Rodney's passed out.
His ears are bleeding. We gotta get out of the water.
Medical team to jumper bay.
John, are you all right?
John?
We're out of the water. Rodney's in trouble.
Have a medical team ready.
Already done.
Their eardrums have been perforated.
How?
The whales are emitting an intense low-frequency pulse, like a sonar,
as well as an em field.
The combination is very dangerous to humans,
particularly in such close proximity.
(Yelling) It's the whales.
Hearing's been impaired. It should heal soon.
It's their echolocation.
It's creating very powerful vibrations.
The closer we got, the worse it became.
Yes. Yes, Rodney, we know.
(Yelling) What?
They should rest.
Agreed.
I'll come back.
Zelenka: The whales are approaching from every direction.
It appears that they're converging on Atlantis.
We are their destination. Yes, it appears so.
The signals they emit are their way of communicating with each other.
Unfortunately, the closer they get to the city,
the more it may affect the people living here.
Even above the waterline?
Teyla: We are already being affected.
Several of us are experiencing headaches,
not as severe as Dr. McKay or colonel Sheppard,
but if these whales get any closer...
Turn on the shield.
These apparitions we've been seeing,
if they are indeed trying to warn us of something,
perhaps this is it.
I first saw the ancient woman at the same time Rodney saw the first whale.
(Speaking distorted foreign language)
Pain's going away.
Think my hearing's gettin' better, too.
What about you?
Rodney?
Canadian football league's a joke.
Celine Dion is overrated.
Zelenka is smarter than you are!
(Shouting) Hey! I found mention of a bio lab in the database.
Ancient scientists used it to study animal life.
We should check it out!
Okay,
Meredith.
How's it going?
More people are falling ill, headaches, nosebleeds.
I'm giving everyone painkillers. Hopefully buy some time
until we figure out how to stop this.
And how are you feeling?
My head's throbbing a wee bit, but I'll manage.
Pnifine. You?
Here, painkillers, just in case.
Thank you. I hope it doesn't get...
Weir: Hey, hey. What's this?
That's a damn good question.
Who said you could get out of bed?
We're feeling a lot better.
Well, I beg to differ. Back to bed, the pair of you.
We need to check out a lab.
What lab? It's a bio lab.
It turned up in my whale research.
It's in one of the flooded areas of the city.
Formerly flooded.
With the area finally repaired,
we're now able to access it.
According to the database,
the ancient biologists used it to study animal life on the planet.
Look, there may be some more information stored there.
Such as, uh, how to tell these whales
how to get the hell out of here.
But we won't know that for sure until I can have a look at it.
All right.
O p e rato r: Dr. Weir?
Go ahead.
Daedalus just arrived in orbit.
They're requesting permission to beam people down.
What do you mean, no?
Weir on intercom: I'm afraid things down here might get a lot worse
before they get any better.
It's probably safer for you to stay up there
until we can sort this problem out.
(Speaking distorted foreign language)
I'm sorry. I do not understand.
(Shrmlecho)
(Groaning)
(Speaking distorted foreign language)
(Groaning)
Come on. Got to get you to the infirmary.
This is it!
All right. Let's see.
Did you put up the shield?
Weir: Yes, but it only extends so far,
and the whales' signals seem to be able to penetrate it.
Well, we might be able to manage it
if there were only a few dozen whales,
but we're talking hundreds now.
And they're swimming closer as we speak.
Dr. McKay is checking out an ancient bio lab.
Hopefully there'll be some information there
that could lead us to a solution.
And if there isn't?
Well, we'll have to consider evacuating Atlantis until the whales leave.
Supposing they don't leave?
What are you suggesting, colonel?
You've got plenty of drones in your arsenal.
You're saying we should kill them?
Before they kill you.
They're not trying to kill us. It's quite the opposite.
I think they're trying to help us.
Weir: Help us?
Come on, you should see this.
I see your hearing has improved.
What?
McKay: What is he...
It's like a receiver calibrated to the specific frequencies
on which the whales communicate.
The ancients designed it to study whales
so they could learn about their songs.
They were studying the whales' language,
trying to assign frequencies to emotions and identify moods.
All sorts of tree-huggy stuff.
Tell them about the ghosts.
Not ghosts, image projections.
There appears to be a causal relationship with the whales.
They may very well be what's been projecting the images to us,
and this receiver should, from what I can tell so far,
be able to interpret them.
Seems like we've been going about this backwards.
The ghosts aren't warning us about the whales.
They're not? McKay: No.
No, it seems the whales may be using the images to warn us.
About what?
Well, that, uh, that I don't know yet.
But judging from the way this machine is freaking out,
it can't be good.
All right?
How are you faring?
(Groaning)
I keep seeing them.
Me, too.
I just spoke with colonel Caldwell.
The daedalus infirmary is ready to beam up the sickest of the patients.
Good.
Teyla should be amongst the first to go.
No. I'm staying.
Beckett: You're far too sick, dear.
He's a pilot.
The burned man.
I just noticed his uniform. He is an ancient pilot.
Carson.
Your nose.
Oh, bloody hell.
Excuse me.
How's he doing? I don't know.
He's taking a while. A lot longer than he usually takes.
He can hear you, you know.
Yeah, we know.
Okay, let's have a listen.
(Bleeps)
(Ancient speaking distorted foreign language)
Who's that?
The woman, the ancient woman.
That's her voice, I'm sure of it.
She's speaking ancient? No.
I mean, it doesn't sound hkethelanguage.
The phonetic rhythm is similar,
but I don't recognize any of the words.
That's because it's gibberish.
Well, to be more accurate, it's an attempt at mimicry.
Look, it turns out the receiver is also a transmitter.
The ancients weren't just trying to learn the whales' language,
they were attempting to teach them theirs
by sending them auditory and visual signals.
And while they were doing that,
they experienced a traumatic moment
which the whales then stored in their genetic memory.
And that's what the images we've been seeing are?
Exactly. Reruns.
Now, unfortunately, these whales are several generations
removed from the incident,
so they're finding thelanguage a bit of a tough go.
It's kind of like trying to sing the lyrics to the Macarena.
You can sound out the words, but you have no idea what you're singing.
Okay, so, this traumatic event,
I'm assuming it's the war against the wraith.
That would be my assumption as well, yes.
And what? The whales are trying to warn us that it might happen again?
I don't know. Possibly.
So what? The wraith might attack.
Tell us something we don't know.
Ah. Interesting thing is,
the ancients seemed to be aware
of the whales' deficient mimicry skills,
and so they incorporated
a kind of, um, acoustic-language filter into the receiver.
That's what's been taking me so long to figure out.
Well, did you figure it out?
Well, let's have a listen, shall we?
(Speaking in distorted foreign language)
Guess the answer's no.
Well, just hang on, hang on. If I... right.
(Woman speaking foreign language)
Hey, wait a minute. Play that back again.
(Audio clip playing)
This is ancient.
At least I can make out a few of the words now.
"Incursus," something was attacked or overtaken.
Meaning Atlantis.
No, I don't think so. "Adar/s"?
What's adar/s?
I don't know.
They've arrived, hundreds of them.
Caldwell: Dr. Weir.
Go ahead, colonel.
The sick patients have been beamed up. Our infirmary's filled.
Thank you.
Unfortunately, more people are falling ill down here,
so it's not really making much of a dent.
Listen, whether these creatures
are trying to communicate with you or not,
at some point you're gonna have to deal with them.
If they don't leave...
I'm sure there are options besides killing them.
What's wrong? We figured it out.
Well, actually, I did most of the figuring, but...
Adaris is a ship we found at the ancient database.
It's an ancient science vessel.
About 15,000 years ago, it ran into some trouble.
The entire crew was killed except for the pilot.
The burned man.
Teyla noticed the uniform. He was an ancient pilot.
Which would explain the burns.
What does?
The ship got hit by a blast of radiation from the sun.
It's a coronal mass ejection
on a scale that dwarfs anything our sun has ever emitted.
Apparently, the sun in this solar system goes through
an unusually turbulent sunspot cycle every 15,000 years or so.
The ancients have records of this class of cme occurring twice before.
The ship was very close to the sun when it happened.
McKay: It's a massive prominence.
It arced up and then collapsed when the magnetic field surrounding it weakened.
We're talking an intense proton stream
traveling at over 4,000 kilometers per second.
Most of the crew was killed instantly,
but the pilot managed to open up a hyperspace window
just as they were hit.
He flew the ship back here, jumping ahead of the radiation wave,
just in time to warn everyone.
The ancients were able to raise the shield and extend it far enough
to protect a large portion of the planet from the blast.
So what are you telling me? This is going to happen soon?
Not soon.
It's happening right now.
How are you doin'?
I have felt better.
You need any more pain medicine?
It does not seem to help anymore.
Well, just hang on. You're gonna be fine.
Teyla? Look at me. Look at me.
You gotta hold on.
You gotta teach me those, uh, meditation lessons.
You are hopeless.
Yeah, I know.
Teyla?
Nurse!
The magnetic field around it is already beginning to weaken.
When that prominence cohapses,
the coronal mass ejection will occur.
It'll erupt from a very small area.
A mere pinprick in comparison to the total sun's surface,
but it'll immediately begin to fan out.
Within a few million miles,
the blast wave will cut a swathe wide enough
to take out this entire planet.
How much time do we have?
Zelenka: The prominence will collapse any moment now.
After that, we have less than an hour
before the radiation wave hits us.
Why didn't we notice this before?
McKay: Because these things happen very quickly.
This kind of sunspot cycle is extremely chaotic, impossible to predict.
No doubt that's what caused the glitch in the jumper's navigational systems.
Not to mention our focus was on attack from the wraith, not the sun.
Yet the whales were aware this was happening.
Well, a lot of animals, whales, dolphins...
Pigeons.
Are affected by the tiniest anomalies in the magnetosphere.
It's as if their internal compasses are somehow...
Pigeons?
Yeah, homing pigeons, yes. I used to raise them before coming here.
We used to consult solar charts before our pigeon races.
Pigeon races? Rodney.
Well, it's still somewhat of a mystery
how they're able to sense this trouble,
but they do, often well before we do.
Whatever. What are our options?
Well, the ancients were able to raise the shield and stretch it wide enough
to protect a significant portion of the planet,
attenuated, to be sure, more of a thin bubble,
but it was able to block out enough of the radiation.
That's interesting, because we have found evidence of mass extinction
on other parts of the planet.
Wow! Well, now we know what caused it.
Okay, so our shield is already activated. What else?
Small problem.
The ancients had three zpms at their disposal.
We, as you know, only have one.
Maybe I was so insistent on keeping them,
because I, too, am able to sense trouble on the horizon.
Just like a pigeon.
So we just need to get the other two zpms back here temporarily...
Not enough time. Look, the odyssey's away from earth.
In the time it would take them to return,
the blast would have almost certainly have hit us.
How far can we extend the shield with one zpm?
Well, enough to cover the city
and perhaps a little bit of the ocean surrounding it, but...
We should evacuate just to make sure.
We can't gate to earth.
Look, we need the zpm's power for the shields.
What about the intergalactic bridge?
The midway station isn't completed yet.
We'd need to ferry people by jumper. Again, no time.
All right, we'll send everyone to the Alpha site
and pick them up when this is over.
I don't think you understand.
Look, the shield will protect the city from the initial blast, yes,
but the entire ecosystem of this planet
will be damaged beyond recovery for hundreds of years.
Look, we're talking no plant life, which means no breathable air...
Sheppard: Beckett.
Elizabeth?
Damn it.
Sergeant bell developed an aneurysm from the pressure.
First fatality.
How is she? Out of time.
Guess we all are.
Sheppard.
You got a plan?
Sure.
Zelenka: Look at them.
Seeking shelter underneath the umbrella of the city.
No, no, no, no. We don't have nearly enough power.
Look, we can extend the shield 20 kilometers beyond the city, maybe.
But it'll be dangerously thin and there's no way of knowing
whether we can sustain it,
especially in a radiation blast of 50,000 rem.
Colonel Caldwell? This is Sheppard.
Go ahead, colonel. I think we have a plan.
We do?
McKay: This is not a good plan.
Sheppard: Sure it is.
You realize just how close we'll have to get to the sun?
Pretty damn close, I'm thinking.
No, suicidally close. I mean, we'll be toast.
That's why we're taking the zpm
to give the daedalus' shield an extra boost.
Okay, you want to deflect
the coronal mass ejection away from the planet.
Like an umbrella. Okay, listen to me.
This, this is the sun, and this, this is us.
A bolt of energy unlike anything you could possibly comprehend
is gonna shoot out of the photosphere
at a tremendous velocity. Okay?
It is gonna immediately start fanning out, like so.
I know.
Which means that we will have to be really close to the surface of the sun
if we wanna intercept that stream and deflect it
before it can start spreading out.
I know, Rodney!
No, no, I don't think you do.
I don't think you fully grasp the reality of just how damn hot it gets
that close to the surface of the sun.
That's why we're taking a zpm to strengthen the shields...
From the blast wave, yes,
but even with the shields at that strength,
the buildup of residual heat behind it
could cause serious problems for the daedalus and everyone inside it.
Could. Could cause.
Okay, tell me,
if this is such a great plan, why didn't the ancients do it?
They were in the middle of a war.
They probably didn't have a ship available at the time.
And, like you said, they had three zpms.
Zelen ka: Rodney? What?
The prominence has begun collapsing.
Colonel Caldwell, we're ready.
Sheppard: How's it going, Rodney?
You know, this might look easy,
but it's actually a little more complicated
than just flipping a switch.
Hurry up, please. We're there.
What? We are already?
Didn't have far to go.
Position, doctor. The shields are up.
We need the extra power from that zpm now.
Yes, yes. I just need to...
Oh, no.
What?
The prominence is fully collapsing into the photosphere.
Brace yourselves.
Sheppard: Rodney?
Zpm is online.
How long will this last, doctor?
Anywhere from a few seconds to several hours.
Sheppard: Hours?
You never said anything about hours.
We're building up serious heat behind the shield.
I told you this wasn't a good plan.
Ronon: How are they doing?
Well, according to my calculations,
the blast wave should have hit us by now,
but I'm reading no discernable increase in radiation.
So they're doing good?
Yes. So far, anyway.
McKay: Temperature inside the shield's rising too fast.
And I'm already detecting several failed sensors on the bow.
If this thing keeps going, the heat buildup could damage the hull.
Not could, it's already damaging it.
(Alarm sounding) We have a breach in the 302 bay.
Seahtofi.
(Alarms sounding) Another breach,
deck 4, we're venting atmosphere.
Rodney.
It's over.
And we're not toast.
We're not toast.
Good plan, huh?
(Sighs)
Zelenka: Most of them are gone now.
They began dispersing almost immediately.
Without so much as a thank you.
(Shouting) No, thank you.
How are you feeling?
Much better.
Walked the whole way over here, didn't see one ghost.
Nor did I.
Mind if I join you...
If you fall asleep one more time...
Hit me with that.
They're gone, Rodney.
Not all of them. Look.
Let me guess. Your buddy Sam.
I like to think so. I like to think he's saying goodbye.
Makes sense. He saved your life, now you've saved his.
Now, you're even.
