STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 502.54.15 GROGAN (VO THRU SPEAKER FILTERED)-Negative. There are two Jaffaemplacements supported by a staff…all over, and there’s no way I can get outof the Stargate. Under fire! Grogan out!03.08.20 HAMMOND-Sergeant, shut it down.03.10.01 TECHNICIAN (OS)-Yes, sir.04.20.20 GRIEVES (VO FILTERED)-Okay, Marul, go ahead.04.26.03 MARUL (FILTERED)-Your friends will see me?04.28.09 GRIEVES (VO FILTERED)-Not right now. I’ll send your greeting back with my report.04.33.04 MARUL (FILTERED)-Well, what shall I say?04.35.11 GRIEVES (VO FILTERED)-Anything you like. (beat) (BREATHY CHUCKLE) How‘bout, “Hello.”04.44.1504.51.14MARUL (VO FILTERED)-Hello?MARUL (FILTERED CONT)-Hello.04.53.01 GRIEVES (VO FILTERED)-That’ll be fine.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 604.59.00 O’NEILL-The rat bastard.05.01.02 DANIEL-The guy came across as very nice.05.03.02 O’NEILL-The voice behind the camera.05.06.24 HAMMOND-Colonel Sean Grieves, formerly of the N.I.D.HAMMOND (OS CONT)-He led an off-world team for Colonel Maybourne, and wasone of the members…HAMMOND (CONT)-of that organization convicted of high treason for his actions.05.16.10 DANIEL-And what was Grieves’s team trying to steal?05.19.02 HAMMOND-The Latonans possess a planetary defense they called the Sentinel,which has apparently kept them safe from the Goa’uld for generations.05.26.15 CARTER-I can see why the N.I.D. would want to get their hands on it.05.29.09 O’NEILL-We put ‘em all away before they could.05.31.24 HAMMOND-Frankly, I’m afraid Colonel Grieves’s team may have done something tothe Sentinel device they haven’t admitted to.05.38.23 O’NEILL-Fiddling around with it, was he?

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 705.40.26 CARTER-Well, according to his report, the Latonans never granted Grieves’s teamaccess to the Sentinel device before they were recalled and arrested.05.49.04 DANIEL-You don’t think it’s possible for an N.I.D. operative to lie.05.53.03 TEAL’C-I believe it is, Daniel Jackson.05.57.02 DANIEL-Right. Ughmm. So if Grieves’s team disabled the Latonans’ only means ofdefense –06.03.07 CARTER-We’re responsible.06.04.23 O’NEILL-Grieves is responsible, thank you.06.07.10 HAMMOND-I doubt the Latonans will appreciate that distinction, Colonel.06.11.19 TEAL’C (OS)-Time will be of the…TEAL’C (CONT)-essence. The Goa’uld forces SG-9 encountered in Latona weremost likely sent through the Stargate as a test.06.19.04 CARTER-To determine if the Sentinel was operational –06.21.10 DANIEL-And by now, they’ll have reported back.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 806.23.24 TEAL’C-A Goa’uld Mothership, most likely, is not far off if the Goa’uld believe thatLatona may now be conquered.06.29.04 O’NEILL-Might be a good time to try out that new guidance system on the U.A.V., sir.06.32.14 HAMMOND-I think that can be arranged.06.34.17 CARTER-Sir, before we go anywhere, we need to talk to Grieves.06.38.13 O’NEILL-Why?06.39.20 CARTER (OS)-Well, whether we like it or not, sir, Colonel Grieves…CARTER (CONT)-and Lieutenant Kershaw may be the only people qualified to fix it.06.54.0807.07.05O’NEILL-I’ll go.O’NEILL (OS CONT)-You’re dismissed.07.11.05 GRIEVES-He’s worried I might try to kill you.07.14.1507.28.21O’NEILL-In that case, I insist.Had many visitors lately? Maybourne stop by to see how the old team’s doin’?07.34.15 GRIEVES-What d’you want, O’Neill?

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 907.36.22 O’NEILL-P2A 018. A device…O’NEILL (OS CONT)-called the Sentinel.07.41.01 GRIEVES-What about it?07.42.26 O’NEILL-I need to know what you did to screw it up, and what I need to do to fix it.07.46.13 GRIEVES-I’m more inclined to tell you where to shove it.07.52.03 O’NEILL-As we speak, SG-9 is either pinned down by the Goa’uld, or dead. So let’sjust cut the crap, okay?07.59.21 GRIEVES-How is this my problem?08.01.11 O’NEILL-You’re responsible. 018 is defenseless because of you.08.05.26 GRIEVES-Earth is defenseless because of you. You don’t seem to have a problemwith that.08.09.04 O’NEILL-You stole technology from our allies. If I hadn’t shut you down, they wouldhave.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 1008.14.21 GRIEVES-Do you really think the Asgard or the Tok’ra will really rush to our defensewhen the Goa’uld finally decide to stomp on us?GRIEVES (OS CONT)-That day is coming, Colonel.GRIEVES (CONT)-Don’t kid yourself.08.30.03 O’NEILL-Okay. I guess I should just go have a chat with Kershaw.08.39.29 GRIEVES-The Latonans didn’t want to show us the Sentinel. We found it ourselves,not far from the city. There was a force field guarding the device itself.Kershaw and I took almost two weeks to get in, take it apart, and put it backtogether good as new.08.55.16 O’NEILL-Not good as new. You did something wrong.08.58.06 GRIEVES-The only thing we did wrong was come back to base to meet our new C.O.It was funny, at the time, I was looking forward to meeting you.09.06.21 O’NEILL-I need you to write down exactly how you got in, and exactly what I need todo to fix this.09.13.03 GRIEVES-If I do anything…anything – I want my sentence commuted.09.18.15 O’NEILL-I think that’s understood going in.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 1109.20.16 GRIEVES-And you’ll need to take us with you. Kershaw and me.09.24.14 O’NEILL-SG-1 can handle it.09.25.26 GRIEVES (rants)-Who do you think you are?! We were good, Colonel, every bit asgood as you!GRIEVES (OS CONT)-We believed what we were doing was for the good of thecountry,…GRIEVES (CONT)-and if you hadn’t put me in here, we might’ve had our own Sentinelby now!09.37.03 O’NEILL-Are you done?09.38.11 GRIEVES-I don’t care how good Carter thinks she is, or how cocky you are. Thedevice is way too complicated for you to try to repair without us. (beat) Youalready know that, or you wouldn’t be here.10.02.03 TECHNICIAN-U.A.V. is away, sir, climbing into position.10.06.22 CARTER (OS)-Receiving telemetry. Confirm two Staff cannon emplacements,…CARTER (CONT)-concealed twenty meters or so from the gate.CARTER (OS CONT)-(to Hammond) We got lucky, sir.CARTER (CONT)-The cannons weren’t able to down the U.A.V. before it was out oftheir range.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 1210.18.14 HAMMOND-Begin painting the target as soon as the U.A.V. reaches altitude. Closethe blast doors. Prepare to launch.10.26.00 TECHNICIAN (FILTERED, ECHOED)-Prepare to launch.10.38.12 CARTER (OS)-Target Sierra-1 has been acquired.10.40.11 HAMMOND-Sergeant, launch when ready.10.48.02 TECHNICIAN-Missile away.11.10.16 CARTER-Sierra-1 has been destroyed,…CARTER (OS CONT)-attempting to acquire Sierra-2.11.13.22 GRIEVES-How do you know those are the only emplacements guarding the gate?11.18.03 O’NEILL-We don’t.11.19.00 CARTER-Sierra-2 has been acquired by U.A.V.11.21.21 HAMMOND-Launch when ready.11.27.14 WARRIOR-(SHOUTS)

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 1311.33.15 CARTER (OS)-Sierra-2 has been destroyed,…CARTER (CONT)-but I can’t confirm casualties. U.A.V. switching to recon mode for…CARTER (OS CONT)-stage two.11.41.10 O’NEILL-That’s us.11.42.23 HAMMOND-Colonel, SG-3 will take…HAMMOND (OS CONT)-point.11.53.13 GRIEVES-Kershaw.11.56.19 O’NEILL-Major Lawrence, make it a clean sweep.11.58.18 MAJOR LAWRENCE-Yes, sir.12.00.24 O’NEILL-Why don’t you go with them, keep ‘em out of trouble. We’ll be on your sixin…sixty seconds.12.06.01 MAJOR LAWRENCE (OS)-SG-3. Let’s go, let’s go, let’s…MAJOR LAWRENCE (CONT)-go!12.09.14 GRIEVES (OS)-I’ll…GRIEVES (CONT)-say it again, I don’t like the idea of going into this unarmed.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 1412.13.00 O’NEILL-And…I don’t care.12.15.26 KERSHAW-Mm, I feel better just knowing there’s an archaeologist watching ourbacks.12.19.09 DANIEL-Yeah, which end do the bullets go in again?12.22.00 GRIEVES-I’d be happy to show you.12.27.27 O’NEILL-Our mission objective is to fix whatever you screwed up. If you get any ideasother than that, I’ll shoot you. Understood?12.40.26 GRIEVES-Yeah.12.42.11 O’NEILL-Move out.13.18.21 CARTER-No sign of SG-3.13.21.16 O’NEILL (INTO RADIO)-SG-3, this…O’NEILL (INTO RADIO CONT)-is SG-1 niner, report.13.35.04 TEAL’C-Three Jaffa warriors survived the missile attack. SG-3 is in pursuit to preventthem from reporting our arrival. Major Lawrence suggests we continue on.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 1513.45.05 O’NEILL-Colonel?13.47.13 GRIEVES-You want me to take point without a weapon?13.50.11 O’NEILL-I want you to point Teal’c in the right direction.14.03.01 DANIEL-Just out of curiosity… How many years did you promise to take off theirsentence if they manage to fix this?14.07.26 O’NEILL-Actually, they’ll get a few more years out of this.14.10.18 DANIEL-More?14.12.15 O’NEILL-They were on death row.14.21.06 CARTER-So, how did you manage to find the Sentinel if the Latonans didn’t want toshow it to you?14.24.25 KERSHAW-Maybe we’re good.14.26.21 O’NEILL-Bribed the locals, eh?14.28.04 GRIEVES (OS)-I see you’ve done your homework.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 1614.29.13 DANIEL-Major Benton’s preliminary report said the Latonans were egalitarian. Theydon’t use currency of any kind.14.34.05 KERSHAW (OS)-They don’t care about material things.14.36.29 O’NEILL-Everybody’s got their price.15.01.01 GROGAN-Colonel…!15.02.16 O’NEILL (OS)-Grogan. Are you all right?15.10.05 GROGAN (OS)-There was a Jaffa patrol on my six most of the day.GROGAN (CONT)-I decided to stop running and fight it out.15.16.04 TEAL’C-How long ago?15.17.03 GROGAN (OS) (getting his bearings)-Last night. I guess I passed…GROGAN (CONT)-out and they went right by me. They’ll be long gone.15.23.16 O’NEILL-Where’s the rest of your team?15.25.00 GROGAN (OS)-Major Benton took a staff hit in the chest on our way back to the gate.GROGAN (CONT)-Tarkman and Winters got away with me at first, but I’m the onlyone left,…GROGAN (OS CONT)-sir.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 1715.32.00 CARTER-Here.15.35.03 GROGAN-This isn’t supposed to be happening, sir. The Latonans have this device –15.37.27 O’NEILL-We know, Lieutenant.15.39.08 CARTER-We’re here to fix it. (to O’Neill)-Sir, should I radio SG-3 and let them know…CARTER (OS CONT)-Grogan’s coming back to the gate?15.45.01 O’NEILL-Negative, Major. (to Teal’c)-Teal’c, how soon should we expect amothership here?15.50.22 TEAL’C-Of that I’m not sure, O’Neill. Could be hours, perhaps even days.15.55.09 O’NEILL-Grogan, can you get me into the city?15.57.15 GROGAN-There are Jaffa patrols all over the damn place making sure the Latonanskeep their curfew. (beat) But, yeah, I can take you straight to Marul if you want.16.06.21 KERSHAW-That’s a waste of time.16.08.20 CARTER-Why do you say that?16.10.02 KERSHAW-The Sentinel was built hundreds of years ago by Marul’s ancestors. Hehas no clue how to use it.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 1816.15.08 GRIEVES-None of ‘em do.16.18.07 O’NEILL-All right, look. We’re here to help these people.16.21.03 GRIEVES-What the hell d’you think you can do?16.22.17 O’NEILL-Maybe give them another option than being wiped out.O’NEILL (OS CONT)-Grogan, you good to go?16.28.07 GROGAN-Mm-hm.16.29.14 O’NEILL-Good. Carter, you’re in charge.16.33.04 CARTER-Yes, sir.16.34.24 O’NEILL-Fix it.16.36.13 CARTER-Yes, sir. Good luck, sir. (beat) Let’s go.17.06.06 GROGAN (OS)-That’s the main road leading in and out of the city.17.10.05 O’NEILL-You wouldn’t happen to know a back way in there, would you?17.14.00 GROGAN-Yes, sir, I think I do.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 1917.30.16 KERSHAW-This is it.17.32.07 DANIEL-What is?17.34.18 GRIEVES-You’ve got to know it’s there. We went right by it the first time.17.37.10 CARTER-All right. You’re on.17.49.24 TEAL’C (OS)-Major Carter, it would be wise if…TEAL’C (CONT)-we were to remain in concealed positions guarding the entrance.17.53.09 CARTER-Absolutely. At least, until the force field’s down.18.02.06 DANIEL-Now, how long will that take?18.03.13 KERSHAW-Last time, it took just over forty-eight hours.18.06.15 CARTER-Well, maybe Daniel can help you shave a couple of days off that estimate.18.19.21 JAFFA COMMANDER (OS)-You are not preparing for his arrival as I instructed.JAFFA COMMANDER (CONT)-Your people ignore the curfew.18.25.27 MARUL-Because they do not understand it.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 2018.27.17 JAFFA COMMANDER (OVERLAPPING)-It is a simple matter. Lord Svarog hasclaimed Latona as part of his domain. Your conquest will happen…JAFFA COMMANDER (OS CONT)-as sure as the sun will rise.JAFFA COMMANDER (CONT)-Accept that, and you may live to serve him.18.44.01 MARUL-My people have no desire to serve anyone.18.47.00 JAFFA COMMANDER-When Svarog rains fire from the sky, they will beg for hismercy, and offer him their devotion.18.52.23 MARUL-No. They will not!18.54.24 JAFFA COMMANDER-They will, when those around them begin to die. (beat) This ismy last warning.19.02.10 MARUL-Your Lord Svarog should not come. The Sentinel will send him away. Youwill all be sent away –19.07.20 JAFFA COMMANDER-So you have said, for three days. Yet here I stand. TheSentinel is nothing more than a legend.19.15.17 MARUL-It is very real!19.17.23 JAFFA COMMANDER-Then my patrols will find it. And destroy it.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 2119.38.25 GROGAN-It’s all right, Marul. He’s a friend.19.41.08 MARUL-From your world?19.42.09 GROGAN-That’s right. He’s come all the way from Earth just to see you.19.46.22 O’NEILL-I’m Colonel Jack O’Neill. We need to talk.20.17.22 KERSHAW-Please don’t do that.20.21.02 DANIEL-It doesn’t really look much like a weapon, does it?20.23.04 GRIEVES-Why don’t you make yourself useful, Doctor Jackson, and go watch thefront door with your friends.20.27.08 DANIEL-Well, I’d rather be trying to help you, but your approach looks completelyrandom.20.31.05 KERSHAW (OS)-The patterns…KERSHAW (CONT)-change randomly. We’re trying to keep ahead.20.35.24 DANIEL-Those sounds?

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 2220.36.20 KERSHAW (OS)-The code to…KERSHAW (CONT)-shut off the field is always changing, relative to the harmonicsbetween the tones in each pattern.20.43.08 DANIEL-And how many different patterns are there?20.46.04 KERSHAW-We’ve recorded over a hundred.20.48.09 DANIEL-Oh, so, I should probably –20.50.07 GRIEVES-Shut up.20.51.22 DANIEL (whispers)-Yeah. (whistles)21.00.03 MARUL (OS)-Your offer is kind, but not necessary.21.04.14 O’NEILL-I think it is.21.07.06 MARUL (OS)-The Sentinel has not…MARUL (CONT)-failed us in centuries. It will not fail us now.21.13.20 O’NEILL-What’s taking it so long?

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 2321.15.24 MARUL-I have sent a messenger to the Sentinel, to seek the answer to that question.(beat) Perhaps it is waiting. You will see. Our enemy will be sent away.21.28.14 O’NEILL-How, exactly?21.31.21 MARUL-One moment they are there, the next they are gone in white light.21.36.25 O’NEILL-Gone where?21.38.11 MARUL-To the place our ancestors divined. We are only grateful that our enemiesare gone.21.44.28 O’NEILL-And that’s it?21.46.29 GROGAN (OS)-Their civilation’s…GROGAN (CONT)-technologically regressed, sir. Nobody knows how anything works,just so long as it keeps working.21.55.05 O’NEILL-And you’ve seen this thing working?21.58.05 MARUL-Oh, yes. As a child. An enemy of our people came in a, in a great ship, but itwas sent away.22.06.21 GROGAN-That’s the story we get from just about everybody, sir.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 2422.09.09 O’NEILL-Marul, do you remember a team of guys who came here from Earth abouttwo years ago?22.14.06 MARUL-Oh. Colonel Grieves, of course. He asked that he might see the Sentinel,…MARUL (OS CONT)-to learn its mysteries, so that, one day, your people might…MARUL (CONT)-be protected, as we are. But to do that, that would be against ourhighest law. No one may see the Sentinel, except its Caretaker.22.34.17 O’NEILL-Yeah… Well, they did anyway. Uh, they worked at night so no one wouldknow. Somehow, they got in, they took it apart, put it…O’NEILL (OS CONT)-back together again…but something’s wrong.O’NEILL (CONT)-They’re there right now trying to fix it, but we might be running out oftime.22.51.13 MARUL-But…what you say cannot be so. This, this flame burns to tell us that theSentinel is watching over us and, in turn, is being watched over. As long as thisflame burns, we may rest assured that we are safe from harm.23.08.07 O’NEILL (OS)-There is a battalion…O’NEILL (CONT)-of Jaffa in your city right now, just waiting to harm you.23.13.23 MARUL-There is an impenetrable barrier to the chamber.23.16.06 O’NEILL-They got past it!

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 2523.17.20 MARUL-Colonel Grieves gave me his word.23.19.21 O’NEILL-He lied.23.22.23 MARUL-Yet you speak the truth?23.27.11 GROGAN-He does, Marul.23.57.28 CARTER (INTO RADIO)-Teal’c, come in.24.01.11 TEAL’C (INTO RADIO)-A Jaffa patrol.24.03.18 CARTER (INTO RADIO)-I count ten, maybe more. With luck, they’ll pass right by us.24.08.20 TEAL’C (INTO RADIO)-It is more likely they have followed our tracks to this location.24.26.26 GRIEVES-This is impossible.24.28.12 KERSHAW-Look, we haven’t been at it that long.24.30.04 DANIEL-Let me try.24.31.27 GRIEVES-D’you have any idea how complicated this code…GRIEVES (OS CONT)-is?

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 2624.33.24 DANIEL-Yes, I think so. Just let me try.24.38.01GRIEVES (OS)-It’s hit the fan already.GRIEVES (CONT)-Give me your Baretta. You think you can help in here? Well, I canhelp out there.25.21.01We have to take all of them out so they can’t report back.25.31.0825.38.04CARTER-A Jaffa patrol must have tracked us here!CARTER (OS CONT)-We can hold them off for now! But get that Force…CARTER (CONT)-Field down!25.45.10 KERSHAW-D’you know what you’re listening for?25.46.24 DANIEL-The mathematical progression of the harmonic in each given pattern, relativeto its spectral equivalent.26.16.10 MARUL-My people have depended on the Sentinel for three hundred years. It wascreated to be there always. So that we might feel free to pursue matters of themind and spirit without fear of what is happening now. (beat) If what you say istrue…26.37.09 O’NEILL-I didn’t come all this way to lie to you.26.39.12 MARUL-How many will die?

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 2726.41.00 O’NEILL-I don’t know. And I can’t undo what’s already been done. But we can stillsave hundreds of your people. Maybe all of ‘em.26.49.06 MARUL-How?26.50.18 O’NEILL-We’re prepared to evacuate as many people as possible,…O’NEILL (OS CONT)-and military support to get ‘em to the gate.26.57.01 MARUL-Leave our world?27.00.03 O’NEILL-I’m afraid so. As we speak, a Goa’uld Mothership could be on its way here.27.06.10 MARUL-What will I tell them? That the very people who doomed our world, now askus to trust our lives to them?27.25.08 SVAROG (VO FILTERED, ECHOES)-I AM SVAROG. FROM THIS DAY FORTH,YOU WILL SERVE ME.27.58.23 GRIEVES-That’s all of ‘em I can see.28.00.19 CARTER-What the hell are you doing out here?28.02.00 GRIEVES-Helping you out.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 2828.02.28 CARTER-A mothership just opened up on the city.28.04.26 GRIEVES-I saw –28.05.23 CARTER (OS)-You need to get that…CARTER (CONT)-Force Field down, that’s the reason you’re here.28.09.05 GRIEVES-Jackson wanted a try. I gave him a try. You were getting shot at, so Ibacked you up. Or is it you don’t like the idea of me with a gun? It’s empty.28.19.02 CARTER-Get back in there. (beat) (INTO RADIO)-Teal’c, I wanna see what’s takingso long. Keep an eye out.28.31.00 MARUL-That voice…28.34.20 O’NEILL-All part of the show.28.37.20 MARUL-The sky rained fire.28.39.15 O’NEILL-It’s from a ship in orbit. One with really big speakers.28.44.25 ASSISTANT-Marul..?ASSISTANT (OS CONT)-Marul!

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 2928.52.12 MARUL (OS)-Has the messenger returned with any news?28.56.08 GROGAN-There are Jaffa patrols all over the place. If Marul sent somebody, I doubtthey made it…GROGAN (OS CONT)-very far.29.00.20 MARUL (OS)-Go home. Tee h’eta.29.07.0129.16.21O’NEILL-Do you have any other way of defending yourself?(INTO RADIO)-Carter, come in.29.18.17 CARTER (INTO RADIO)-Yes, sir.29.19.20 O’NEILL (VO THRU RADIO FILTERED)-The Mothership’s here. Some guy named…O’NEILL (CONT INTO RADIO)-Svarog.29.24.21 CARTER (INTO RADIO)-He’s one of the System Lords, sir. You should get out ofthere.29.27.03 O’NEILL (INTO RADIO)-Yeah. Uh, what’s your progress?29.29.04 CARTER (INTO RADIO)-Still working on the Force Field, sir.29.30.21 O’NEILL (INTO RADIO)-Major, people are startin’ to die here.

STARGATE SG-1 – “The Sentinel” (#4971) Page 3029.33.04 CARTER (INTO RADIO)-Yes, sir. We’re doing our best.29.36.07 O’NEILL (INTO RADIO)-You tell Grieves if he doesn’t fix that thing, I’ll shoot himanyway. (beat) (to Marul)-Marul, you have to make an announcement.
