Resurrection is the nineteenth episode of the seventh season of Stargate SG-1.

[edit] Plot

SG-1 arrives at a warehouse in Los Angeles where a rogue element of the NID was previously operating. Nearly everyone involved has been killed in a wholesale massacre. The only survivors are a scientist known as Keffler, and a girl, named Anna, who is being held in a strange sort of containment cell. While Samantha Carter and Agent Barrett attempt to get information out of Keffler, Daniel Jackson talks with Anna, asking her what the NID wanted with her, and about the strange and disturbing charcoal drawings that decorate her cell. While searching the warehouse's labs, SG-1 discovers the nature of the experiment: Anna is a human-Goa'uld hybrid, created by Keffler and his team in an attempt to access the memories and knowledge of the Goa'uld. It was her Goa'uld personality, Sekhmet, taking control of her body, which brutally slaughtered the rogue cell.

Through analysing her drawings, Daniel Jackson discovers how to open an ark that had been discovered in the warehouse. However, on opening it, it was found to contain a Naquadah bomb. Dr. Lee and Teal'c set to trying to defuse it, while Daniel tries to encourage Anna to remember how to defuse it through meditation. Unfortunately this leads to her alternate personality emerging, who then sets fire to all the drawings in the cell.

Anna manages to escape her cell, as does Keffler when he hears about her escape. They encounter each other in a corridor, and gunshots are heard, after which Daniel discovers them both lying dead. During this time Daniel finds the drawing of the abort code to the bomb and Anna regains control of her body at some point and its Anna, not Sekhmet who kills Keffler which she does because of how evil he is.
