[edit] Plot

SG-1 goes to a planet, hoping to find the Tok'ra and form an alliance. Their proposal is denied and SG-1 hopes to gain their trust, by helping them to evacuate from an attack of the System Lords.

After SG-1s proposal for an alliance is denied by the Tok'ra, SG-1 and SG-3, who were sent to extract Carter because her father is dying in a hospital from cancer, are being held until the Tok'ra move to another base. Carter asks to see Garshaw, the leader of the Tok'ra, to offer her a host, she needs to save a fellow Tok'ra, Selmak. Jack and Carter are allowed to leave through the Stargate, to propose Jacob Carter blending with Selmak.

Carter talks to her father and tells him the truth about her job, and explains the situation. He agrees to help them gain the trust of the Tok'ra. Upon their return to the Tok'ra base, they discover, that everyone is evacuating and Daniel, Teal'c and SG-3 are helping. Daniel tells Jack and Sam, that the Goa'uld System Lords are poised to attack the planet. Jack goes off to help the evacuation and Sam and Jacob make their way to Selmak.

While Selmak and Jacob get to know each other, Jack does some digging on how the System Lords got wind of the bases location. He discovers, that Cordesh uses a long range communication device, which are not used by the Tok'ra, since the network is not secure. After Jack tells this to Garshaw, she and several other Tok'ra go to arrest Cordesh. They find him in one of the vanishing tunnels, claiming that he is not who he seems to be and commits suicide.

Jacob, after talking to Saroosh, Selmaks host, agrees to blend with her. Selmak decides that she likes him and also agrees to be blended. After the Larva switches over to Jacob, Saroosh dies and Selmak starts to heal his cancer. Meanwhile moving him would kill him, so they have to wait, until Selmak has healed Jacob. Jack discovers a young Tok'ra carrying a box, in which he previously found the long range communication device and stops her. She is revealed to be Cordesh, who has not died in the vanishing tunnel, only his previous host. Garshaw orders the execution of the Goa'uld but hoping to save the host.

SG-1, SG-3 and Garshaw go to Carter, Martouf and Jacob, who is still unconscious.Carter and Martouf are holding hands, and Carter jumps up at arrival of Garshaw. Carter and Martouf agree to wait until Jacob wakes up, the rest make their way to the Stargate. They barely make it through the Stargate, with Death Gliders approaching from the skies. After some waiting, Jacob awakens, fully healed (both of his cancer and his arthritis), and they too try to escape. At the Gate they see, that the Goa'uld are dialing to the planet and Sam tries to dial faster than they do. A Wormhole engages and they take the risk, that Sam was not faster, and go through. They, of course, go to Earth and the Tau'ri and the Tok'ra form an alliance because of Jacob, who agrees to function as liason between the two people. His last words, before he leaves through the Gate with Garshaw and Martouf, are "Don't call us, we call you.".
