-Where's Harrison? -He was right behind us.
Have no fear, Harrison's he-- He-- Aah!
Harrison fly well. Landing a problem.
EC'CO: You all right?
Yeah, except for being dissed by a dragon.
Ew! Smells like rotten eggs.
Sulfur. You get used to it.
Ow! Something just bit me!
Local insects. Try to keep your skin covered.
You can worry about your tan on the next planet.
Why are we even here? lt's filthy, it smells. . .
. . .it's crawling with bugs. Did l miss anything?
Hey, hey, hey!
BONNER: Cadets, please say hello to your hosts, the Mu'adash.
We remember Gus Bonner, and your language.
Excuse me, major? Something's up with Draga.
BONNER: That thing over there is called the Guide.
The Mu'adash think it's some kind of oracle.
-lt answers questions? -They say it used to.
Right. A giant talking brick.
BONNER: Things aren't always what they seem, cadet.
You were saying?
That mud's as thick as tar. The Guide goes in, we'll never get it out.
So? lt's just a piece of rock.
To you, it's a rock. To them, it's a shrine.
Yeah, Harrison, show some sensitivity.
HARRlSON: Hey, l'm sensitive. l've got feelings. l'm a--
Harrison!
BONNER: Come on, pull.
Whoa!
-What'd she say? -She said, you're hers now.
-Huh? BONNER: The Mu'adash believe. . .
. . .that if you save someone's life, that person belongs to you.
What? No. No, look, l--
-Everyone else helped save me too. -lt was her rope.
lt's like they taught us at Stargate Command, Harrison.
You have to respect the local customs.
EC'CO: Check out the bottom of this thing. lt's naquadah.
The same material used to build the stargates.
You think the Ancients put this Guide here when they left the gate?
Could be, Ec'co. But why?
Okay. Okay, l get the idea.
Draga, what did you learn about the Guide when you touched it?
Only l must touch it.
Felt hope. Felt yearning.
Let's grab the buggy and all the cable we can round up.
Our spy on Earth just provided the names of every planet. . .
. . .visited by Gus Bonner during his years with Stargate Command.
Send search teams to every planet on the list.
And, Pahk'kal, l'm putting you in charge.
Finding Gus Bonner is now your personal responsibility.
Every creature that opposes me will end up here.
Preserved, so that one day they may serve me.
l have a special tube for Major Gus Bonner.
BONNER: That's it, a couple more feet.
Ah!
-Better. -Thanks a lot.
That's it. Shut them down.
Gus Bonner, we have thanks to you.
Stay with us for a nighttime.
Gee, that sounds great, but we gotta get going. Don't we?
The Tlak'kahn don't know we're here. There's no reason to hurry to leave.
No? How about because the entire planet is a filthy slime pit?
And l say that with great respect.
Okay, okay.
ALL: Gus Bonner!
They treat you like a hero.
Well, l'm sure you'll straighten them out.
STACEY: Let's go unpack.
Well, now that they've got company at least they're trying to tidy up.
They're not cleaning. They're preparing us a welcome feast.
HARRlSON: They eat pond scum?
lt's very nutritious.
Well then, if they're serving slime, l guess l better go clean up.
What--? Hey, l'm just washing my hands.
The locals only wash when they're sad or grieving.
lt's a ritual.
l'm miserable. Does that qualify?
Ah! Hey, back off!
And l don't care what the local custom says. . .
. . .this mud hen doesn't own me.
Now, now, Harrison. No snacking. You'll spoil your supper.
DA'KYLL: Have you found Gus Bonner?
Yes, commander. We have his precise location.
Remember, do not hurt the Ancient.
Bonner, however, is another matter.
Seattle, do you still get feelings from Draga?
All the time.
She really got squirrelly when she touched that rock.
Well, if Draga is an Ancient, she could be telepathically attuned. . .
. . .to the power emanations from the naquadah in the monolith.
Or it could just be an alien thing.
STACEY: l gotta get some air.
How can you eat that stuff?
Tastes like my mother's creamed spinach.
But then, nobody else liked that either.
Guys? l'm trying to sleep here.
-Hello. -Ah, what now?
This place gets cold at night.
These people always sleep next to each other to stay warm.
Well, l don't care. She smells like a year-old, hard-boiled egg.
-Phew. -Phew.
Seems the feeling's mutual.
What l'm asking is, if that Guide. . .? Did it speak to you somehow?
That rock still bugging you?
STACEY: ls the Guide just part of some old legend. . .
. . .or some kind of a signpost?
A way to show lost travelers back to the Ancients' home planet?
lf l knew, l'd be chatting with it.
Well, whatever it is, we have to inform Stargate Command somehow.
No. Somebody at Stargate Command made me look like a traitor--
Harrison saw you.
Things aren't always what they seem.
Okay, then what happened in the command center?
lf you didn't do it, who did? Are there two Gus Bonners?
l didn't think identical twins ran in our family.
But traitors do?
Look, if l'm working for the Tlak'kahn. . .
. . .why am l trying to keep them from getting Draga?
STACEY: Hey, l saw your face when the Mu'adash welcomed you.
You like being the hero.
Maybe you saved Draga so you could look good to Stargate Command.
Stace, if l were that clever, l'd be a general by now.
You know, you remind me of your father.
We never got along when we were kids.
Silence. Tlak'kahn.
You two, get to the vehicles.
Now.
lncoming!
Do not worry, Ancient. l need you alive.
lt's Bonner.
Get in.
HARRlSON: l got her. Go, go, go!
Quit firing, you fool. They're beyond our range.
PAHK'KAL: What should we do, commander?
Wait for them to come back for their friends.
Ec'co, you're on recon. See if they're following us.
EC'CO: On my way.
BONNER: Where are Stacey and Draga?
We couldn't find them.
-Give me that. -What?
Wait, let us help.
EC'CO: Take cover.
"We have his precise location. We have him surrounded. "
Then how did Gus Bonner escape?!
Because he messed up?
Silence, meat sack.
BONNER: Hang on. STACEY: Unh!
Now we have all that we came for.
Aim for the discharge coils.
SEATTLE: All right, we got them. EC'CO: Well done.
-All done. -For now.
Major Bonner, do you read me? Not answering.
HARRlSON: Uh, is she okay?
l tell her you save from Tlak'kahn.
Great. l guess that makes us even.
We better find Gus and the others.
BOGWYN: Harrison!
Hey, look, uh, Bogwyn.
Thanks for the concern, but l gotta do this.
No. Harrison, listen now.
Bogwyn save Harrison. Harrison save Bogwyn. Done.
So you don't own me anymore?
Uh, don't worry.
Another guy'll come along and you can save him.
Empty.
The Tlak'kahn are gone. Same with Draga, Stacey and Gus.
They left behind the jetpack and the RATV.
They can't be going far.
Don't be too sure.
HARRlSON: The stargate. SEATTLE: The stargate.
Commander, should l set the stargate for Tlak'kahn?
l have another destination in mind.
Guess the others got away.
They were okay when l left them.
Wait, you got away too?
So you came back for Draga.
Draga isn't my niece. You are.
Huh?
PAHK'KAL: Are you hurt?
l-- l-- l've never been better.
Now tell your men to destroy the Guide.
Commander, the Nax'kan Council may wish to examine it.
-Perhaps we should-- -Perhaps nothing.
lt is enough that l know the location of the Ancients' home planet.
PAHK'KAL: Congratulations, Da'kyll.
You heard him. Get rid of it!
BONNER: Where do think you're going?
Don't fret, major. You're coming along too.
l would like you to watch as l uncover the secrets of the universe.
They're gone, and there's no way to know where.
Back home, to Tlak'kahn?
Or the home of the Ancients.
DA'KYLL: What is this?
PAHK'KAL: No creature could survive for long in a place like this.
Don't be so sure. l once spent a whole summer in Phoenix.
Perhaps the Ancients built the stargates. . .
. . .as a way to escape from their dying world.
BONNER: You don't get it, do you?
They put it there to keep jerks like you from finding their planet.
Anyone asks the wrong question, the Guide sends them here instead.
Didn't you notice? There are no controls on that stargate.
No way to make it take you anywhere else.
Look, maybe this guy can explain it better.
l believe you're right, major. We have been sent here to perish.
And you will be the first to do so.
-Hyah! -Unh!
Why are we fighting, major? We're all doomed to die here.
Well, see, when you said l was gonna be the first to go. . .
. . .l just got this urge to prove you wrong.
Listen, if we don't get out of this. . .
. . .l just wanna say l'm sorry l didn't believe you.
Hey, if l were you, l probably wouldn't believe me either.
You know what you said about me being like my dad?
When l was little, and l got on his nerves. . .
. . .Dad told me l reminded him of you.
Well, one of us should feel insulted.
DRAGA: We may leave now.
-How did you do that? -l do not know.
Right. On three.
Three!
Forward!
-You made it. EC'CO: Where were you?
We're not sure, exactly.
But if you think this planet is bad. . . .
-Whoa. -And the coolest part is. . .
. . .Draga activated the stargate with her mind.
She must be one of the Ancients.
Maybe. Right now, l bet she gets the Tlak'kahn's vote.
DA'KYLL: Well?
We might be able to salvage one of the onboard computers. . .
. . .and rig up controls to operate the stargate.
lf we survive long enough.
My hatred will keep me alive.
MUG'LOT: Why Gus Bonner go now?
lf we stay, the Tlak'kahn might come back.
l think Bogwyn's sad to see you go.
Well, that makes one of us. lf l never-- Huh?
She's. . .
. . .beautiful.
Most of these people are, under the mud.
-Didn't l mention that? -l thought that was their skin.
No, they just use the mud to keep the bugs off.
-lt's like l said-- HARRlSON: l know, l know:
Appearances, deceiving.
HARRlSON: l got it. BONNER: Do you really?
The next time life throws something your way, good or bad. . .
...are you gonna know enough to take a good look under the surface?
l sure hope so.
BONNER: l realize now that the Tlak'kahn. . .
. . .could have my stargate record.
Then they would know every planet you've visited.
-What will we do? -Stay off the beaten path.
l'm setting the stargate for a place l haven't been.
An unexplored world.
lt's gotta be better than this place.
Uh, hey. lt wasn't so bad.
Which was the best world again, Major Bonner?
The next one.
