On Juna, SG-1 gets a hostile welcome from the local warriors' leader Darian, who seems incredulous they even dared to return. They loyally deliver Sam and Teal'c to Cronus and told them to bury the Stargate. Cronus orders Darian to decapitate Daniel by staff weapon- to find his head is robotic. Cronus's obvious astonishment makes Darian doubt his divinity. At the SGC, Harlan urge them to go on a mission.

In order to prevent the Goa'uld gaining access to their duplicates' memories, SG-1 reluctantly go to Juna. Darian now joins them, but feels most of his people won't dare challenge Cronus.

Soon after, Daniel develops violent mood swings and is committed to a hospital with a neurotransmitter brain condition, presumed fatal after all the other SG-5 members die. Meanwhile, SG-3 has visited the planet, finding only the light installation Daniel reported as particularly fascinating and a human teenage boy, Loran, who hid from Daniel's expedition, but now tells Jack he was left there by his parents, scientific researchers. Back in SGC, Jack also develops symptoms. Sam and Dr. Fraiser conclude that it must be some addiction linked to the light, so when Daniel is nearly terminal Jack, who might not have been exposed too long himself, must bring him back. Jack insists they try turning off the light, and leans on Loran, who is looking for a father-figure; he even gives Teal'c an early "birthday present," but has a dark secret.

In 2010, Robert Kinsey is president of a brave new world since he concluded the alliance with the Aschen, a race discovered by SG-1 which lets humanity enjoy its far advanced science and technology, including a vaccine against aging. Sam is now a civilian scientist, married to ambassador Joe Faxon, whose only worry is failing to get pregnant. When she double-checks the Aschen doctor Mollem's computer with Dr. Fraiser, who felt superfluous given superior medicine, they discover human fertility is down 90% worldwide in three years. Sam, Daniel and Teal'c turn to retired General Jack, who always warned against handing over technological control, for a daring plan to turn the clock back like General Hammond did once, sending a message to their past with the exact time of a solar flare, which Sam can calculate using the Aschen computer. Only one ingredient is out of their reach: the GDO device to control the Stargate's iris, which is in the White House. Sam implores her husband Joe to steal it, but he has a secret as well as sincere objections.

Teal'c is on his home planet, Chulak, where there is rebellion among the Jaffa warriors. He is betrayed as a sacrilegious shol'va (traitor) by Rak'nor, son of a Jaffa friend of his father, and handed to Terok, the torturer of system lord Heru'ur. Ignorant of his fate, the other SG-1 members join Jacob in a risky attempt to take hold of a space mine using a Tok'ra ship piloted by Jacob. En route to Apophis' spaceship, the expedition finds out that Teal'c is being offered as a confidence-building present from Heru'ur to cement an alliance with Apophis against the other system lords, which would make the Goa'uld threat more dangerous than ever. They decide to save Teal'c, but their attempt fails. However, Teal'c's resistance to torture and clear conviction that Goa'uld are not gods finally convinces Rak'nor, who now bravely acts.

When one of Daniel's professors dies in a lab explosion which might be related to the Goa'uld, he comes back to Chicago to investigate what really happened.
