- [the elevator Jack's in has shut down and Daniel has appeared behind him]
- Daniel Jackson: Jack, Abydos is in trouble. Anubis is on his way. He's after the Eye of Ra. I have that replica Catherine gave me, it looks like this. Now, I'm pretty sure the real one is located in some secret chamber in Ra's pyramid on Abydos, but I'm not sure where exactly. According to legend, there were six eyes including those held by Apophis, Osiris, and Tiamat among others . Each is powerful on its own. Now if you use them in combination it increases that power tenfold. Recently, Anubis has managed to track down five of the six eyes, and only needs Ra's to complete the set. He's looked everywhere Ra used to hang out except Abydos, now he's on his way there.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: I was sure that was an Asprin I took this morning.
- Daniel Jackson: Jack it's really me. It's me. You have to help. You have to find the Eye of Ra before Anubis does. I mean keep it, hide it, destroy it, whatever. It doesn't matter. We don't have much time.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Hey, Daniel. How you doin'? Long time. How are things in the higher planes?
- Daniel Jackson: [turns his back on Jack, very aggravated, then turns back around] Hey, Jack. Long time, no see. How-how-how you doin'?
- Jonas Quinn: Did he tell you where we can find the Eye?
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Uh, he doesn't know.
- Major Samantha Carter: He doesn't know?
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: I know! Personally, I think this whole "ascension" thing is a bit overrated.
- Major Samantha Carter: The only thing we can assume is that Anubis didn't keep his deal with Daniel.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: That's a shock, eh?
- [Anubis raises his hand to activate the weapon]
- Daniel Jackson: Stop!
- [Her'ak fires his staff weapon at Daniel but the blast passes through him. Anubis rises from his throne]
- Anubis: Stop me, if you can.
- [Daniel raises his hands and they start to glow]
- Anubis: Strike me down! Do it now or I will destroy Abydos!
- [Daniel raises his hands higher and directs the energy at Anubis. It appears to be blown back as Anubis raises his hand to defend himself]
- Daniel Jackson: No! Don't do this!
- [Daniel is spirited away. Her'ak looks terrified]
- Her'ak: [to Anubis] You are indeed all-powerful, my lord.
- Anubis: What you just saw was not my doing.
- [Her'ak seems confused. Anubis once again sits down]
- Anubis: However, this is!
- [he activates the weapon; it focuses on Abydos; a beam of energy is directed at the pyramid]
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: So... you seeing anybody?
- Skaara: [laughs] Maybe.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Really? It serious?
- Skaara: [chuckles] We are betrothed.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Trust me, that's serious. Congratulations.
- Skaara: Thank you.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: I assume my invitation got lost in the mail, or...
- Skaara: I wanted to ask you to shal'oki.
- [sees that Jack is completely oblivious]
- Skaara: To stand beside me.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: [looks uncomfortable] Just... during the ceremony, right?
- Skaara: Yes, yes.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: I'd be honored.
- Skaara: Will you be coming to my wedding alone?
- [Major Carter approaches]
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Uhmmm... I assume Carter's invited, too?
- Skaara: Of course!
- [looks at both O'Neill and Carter]
- Skaara: Will you be coming together?
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: As in...?
- Major Samantha Carter: Friends, going to a wedding.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Ah! Yes. Sure!
- [pause]
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Jonas.
- [walks off, as Skaara and Carter grin]
- Her'ak: [Anubis's Jaffa have SG-1 cornered] Surrender or die.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: [leans his head out] What?
- Her'ak: [louder] Surrender or die!
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: I was just gonna say the exact same thing!
- Her'ak: O'Neill, of SG-1.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: [Carter looks at O'Neill, pause, O'Neill looks around and grins] Hey! How ya' doin? You'll have to forgive me. I'm terrible with names. What was-
- [Jaffa fires a staff weapon and hits the wall next to O'Neill]
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Geez!
- Her'ak: I am Her'ak.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Congratulations. Failing upwards I see.
- Her'ak: You have no choice!
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Actually, I do! I've got the Eye. And about a pound of very powerful explosive stuck to it! Give us clear access to the Gate, or I'll blow it up.
- Her'ak: Yourself along with it?
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: [Carter looks at O'Neill] What's your point?
- Yu-huang Shang Ti: I command the collective forces of the System Lords.
- Anubis: You've finally managed to rally them against me.
- Yu-huang Shang Ti: You hand over the Eye of Ra or face destruction.
- Anubis: I will consider your most generous offer.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: [Jonas is trying to interpret wall carvings to find the Eye of Ra] How're you doing there, son? We don't have all day.
- Jonas Quinn: I know. Believe me, though, there's nothing, just a lot of talk about the Power of Ra, the size of his domain.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Big domain?
- Teal'c: [to Abydonian soldier] I am not sure what you have been promised, but if you are not prepared to die, then you should not be here.
