- Sam Carter: [explaining the contents of the asteroid and how the bomb will affect it] The explosion will be enhanced by the Naquadah, probably to the force of a small nova. This close to Earth, it would be enough to set the atmosphere on fire and boil the oceans.
- Jack O'Neill: Okay, this was not in the movie.
- Jack O'Neill: [looking out the window of a Goa'uld cargo ship, approaching the Earth] Carter... I can see my house!
- Jack O'Neill: ...And after that, I kind of lost my temper.
- Major General George Hammond: What exactly does *that* mean?
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Let's just say Jack made a reference to Freyr's mother.
- Sam Carter: The asteroid has an irregular shape, but we've calculated its length from end to end to be approximately 137 kilometers.
- Jack O'Neill: I've seen this movie. It hits Paris.
- Sam Carter: Now find the wires leading from the timer to the detonator and cut the red one.
- Jack O'Neill: Carter, they're all yellow.
- Sam Carter: Say again?
- Jack O'Neill: There are five wires and they're all yellow.
- Sam Carter: Sir, the asteroid's core is composed almost entirely of Naquadah.
- Jack O'Neill: Of course it is.
- Sam Carter: It makes up about 45 percent of the total mass.
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Of course it does.
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Well, we have a couple of options. Number one, we give up. We use what's left of power and life support to make it to the nearest unoccupied gate world. There's a small chance we'd make it. From there we head to the Alpha site.
- Jack O'Neill: Number two?
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: We take off and hope that our radio signal can be picked up by the Asgard in time to inform them that this was a Goa'uld attack disguised as a natural disaster.
- Sam Carter: There isn't enough time for that.
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: I know.
- Jack O'Neill: Is... there a number three?
- Sam Carter: There's no three.
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Well, maybe there is. Teal'c, you said Naquadah wasn't native to our solar system.
- [Teal'c nods in acknowledgement]
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Which means that the Goa'uld must have towed it through hyperspace by ship.
- Teal'c: A mother ship.
- Sam Carter: Daniel, that's it!
- Jack O'Neill: What's it?
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: We don't have a mother ship.
- Sam Carter: But the effect only has to last a few seconds.
- Jack O'Neill: What only has to last a few seconds? What?
- Sam Carter: Choice three, sir. We expand the ship's hyperspace field to encompass the entire asteroid. We take it out of normal space long enough to avoid the collision with earth.
- Jack O'Neill: [Long pause] Is there a *four*?
- Jalen: I'm Jalen of the Tok'ra. We received your distress call, and came as fast as we could. Can we render assistance?
- Jack O'Neill: Well, you know, it's not like we don't have everything totally under control here, but... Sure, render away.
- Jack O'Neill: You know, I'd like to take this opportunity to say that this is a very poorly designed bomb, and I think we should say something to somebody when we get back.
- Sam Carter: I agree, sir.
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Well, one of our allies will surely help.
- Sam Carter: I hope you're right. Otherwise, in 11 days and 16 hours all life on earth will be wiped out.
