SynopsisEdit

SG-1 discovers that Apophis is a prisoner on Netu and is planning a revolt against Sokar. Meanwhile, Teal'c goes to Vorash to seek assistance from the Tok'ra, but they have plans other than rescuing the teams to stop Apophis.

PlotEdit

SG-1 once again meet Apophis. He throws them in the pit and brings Major Samantha Carter up for interrogation. Using the Tok'ra Memory recall device and a drug called "The Blood of Sokar", he plunges Sam into a dream made up of old memories. She sees herself on the day of her mother's funeral, with Jacob asking for her forgiveness. Confused, Sam remembers that she forgave her father years ago, and if she didn't, she wouldn't have joined the Stargate program. Out of the blue, Jacob Carter starts asking her how to get to Earth, and what her IDC is. Sam refuses to give in, and Apophis puts her back in the pit.

Meanwhile, Teal'c escapes the Death Gliders and returns to the Tok'ra. The Council decides to launch a device that would burrow to the center of Netu and destroy the moon within twelve minutes, while Sokar is in his ship and unable to escape the blast.

Back on Netu, Apophis interrogates Colonel Jack O'Neill as he did with Sam, plunging him into a dream-memory of his son. Charlie O'Neill accuses Jack of never playing with him, saying that if they'd played ball together, Charlie would never have shot himself. He refuses to play ball unless Jack tells him where the Asgard homeworld is. Jack manages to break out of the memory, and is thrown back into the pit. Afterwards Apophis has Martouf and Sam brought in together, threatening to kill Jolinar of Malkshur's last host if Martouf doesn't tell him where the Tok'ra are. Martouf lies convincingly, and Apophis uses the information to gain an audience with Sokar. Dr. Daniel Jackson is tortured next with a memory in which Jack asks him where the Harcesis child is.

The Tok'ra launches the device into Netu. Apophis is grabbed by Sokar's men. Sokar explains that he already conquered Entac, and his Jaffa starts to torture Apophis to death. At a moment of distraction, Apophis draws a concealed blade and kills Sokar's First Prime and another of his Jaffa. Taking the Jaffa's staff weapon, he fires it at Sokar, but Sokar activates his personal shield device. Apophis is forced to run.

Trapped on Netu, SG-1 and Martouf can only escape by using the Transportation rings, but these will take them to Sokar's ship, which is about to be destroyed. Teal'c solves this by flying the cargo ship into the path of the beam while it is being activated, intercepting them in the ship's own set of transport rings. They escape while Netu and Sokar are destroyed. Apophis escapes and seizes Sokar's power base, becoming the strongest Goa'uld among the System Lords.
