1 00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:06,490 Let me ask you a question. Say there's a runaway train. 2 00:00:06,525 --> 00:00:11,399 It's hurtling out of control towards ten people standing in the middle of the tracks. 3 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,796 The only way to save those people is to flip a switch, send the train down another set of tracks. 4 00:00:15,831 --> 00:00:20,402 The only problem is there is a baby in the middle of those tracks. 5 00:00:20,403 --> 00:00:23,108 Why would anyone leave a baby in harm's way like that? 6 00:00:23,143 --> 00:00:25,458 I don't know. That's not the point. Look, it's an ethical dilemma. 7 00:00:25,493 --> 00:00:28,051 Look, Katie Brown brought it up over dinner the other night. The question is: 8 00:00:28,052 --> 00:00:33,987 is it appropriate to divert the train and kill the one baby to save the ten people? 9 00:00:34,022 --> 00:00:38,127 - Wouldn't the people just see the train coming and move? - No. No, they wouldn't see it. 10 00:00:38,162 --> 00:00:41,947 - Why not? - Well... Look, I dunno say they're blind. 11 00:00:41,982 --> 00:00:43,738 - All of them? - Yes, all of them. 12 00:00:43,773 --> 00:00:46,083 - Then why don't you just call out and tell them to move out of the way? 13 00:00:46,118 --> 00:00:50,925 - Well, because they can't hear you. - What, they're deaf too? How fast is the train going? 14 00:00:50,926 --> 00:00:52,201 Look, the speed doesn't matter! 15 00:00:52,202 --> 00:00:56,651 Well, sure it does. If it's goin' slow enough, you could outrun it and shove everyone to the side. 16 00:00:56,686 --> 00:00:59,902 - Or better yet, go get the baby. - For God's sake! I was just trying to... 17 00:00:59,903 --> 00:01:00,641 - Rodney? - Yes. Go ahead. 18 00:01:00,642 --> 00:01:02,101 - Rodney? - Yes. Go ahead. 19 00:01:02,102 --> 00:01:07,321 Major Lorne just dialled in from M4D-058. He says he's got something you'll want to see. 20 00:01:08,669 --> 00:01:10,014 Work it out. 21 00:01:10,852 --> 00:01:13,502 We came through the space Gate and immediately noticed a bunch 22 00:01:13,503 --> 00:01:16,253 of small satellites in geosynchronous orbit above the planet. 23 00:01:16,254 --> 00:01:18,008 An advanced civilisation? 24 00:01:18,043 --> 00:01:22,152 That's what we thought, then we picked up life signs directly below so we flew down, 25 00:01:22,153 --> 00:01:26,153 saw several villages separated by a large river and decided to check one of them out, 26 00:01:26,154 --> 00:01:27,155 and as you can see... Sergeant? 27 00:01:28,653 --> 00:01:32,553 These people don't exactly look like they're ready to be launching any satellites... 28 00:01:32,554 --> 00:01:35,552 at least not for the next five hundred years or so. 29 00:01:35,553 --> 00:01:37,952 The Ancients probably put em up there. 30 00:01:37,953 --> 00:01:39,912 Send a science team to check it out. 31 00:01:39,947 --> 00:01:45,355 Uh, actually, I think Doctor McKay may wanna come check this one out for himself. 32 00:01:45,673 --> 00:01:48,604 - Why? - Take a look. 33 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:56,074 Watch Movies, Series & LiveTV www.flixify.app 34 00:02:15,505 --> 00:02:19,117 Stargate Atlantis - Saison 3 Episode 15 "The Game" 35 00:02:21,478 --> 00:02:26,479 Edition: Golgi, Linwelin, Malikay, Ricana. Transcript: Callie Sullivan. 36 00:02:28,366 --> 00:02:33,365 Synchronisation: Golgi, Malikay, Ricana. 37 00:02:35,584 --> 00:02:40,585 Relecture: Golgi, Niko. 38 00:03:00,640 --> 00:03:04,136 http://projet-sg. net 39 00:03:05,983 --> 00:03:08,319 How the hell did your face get on that flag? 40 00:03:08,354 --> 00:03:14,757 Uh, I don't know. Here's the thing, though: that flag's very similar to the one I designed in our game. 41 00:03:14,758 --> 00:03:18,057 - It's exactly like the one you designed in our game. - What game? 42 00:03:18,058 --> 00:03:20,657 - The game Rodney and I have been playing. - We didn't tell you about the game? 43 00:03:20,658 --> 00:03:23,157 - We've been playing for a while now. - Yeah, off and on in our spare time, 44 00:03:23,158 --> 00:03:26,408 you know – at night, between missions, uh... I could have sworn we told you about it? 45 00:03:26,409 --> 00:03:30,458 - What game? - Well, it started a while ago... 46 00:03:30,459 --> 00:03:31,758 a few months after we arrived here. 47 00:03:31,759 --> 00:03:36,608 We were exploring the city, checking out some labs on the east pier when we discovered a room. 48 00:03:36,609 --> 00:03:40,628 There were several Ancient consoles and screens... it was quite an impressive layout. 49 00:03:40,663 --> 00:03:44,358 As usual, everything sprang to life as soon as we entered. 50 00:03:49,377 --> 00:03:51,558 At first we thought it was some kind of a geological facility... 51 00:03:51,559 --> 00:03:55,576 There was a screen with a map that we assumed was of the Lantean mainland. 52 00:03:55,625 --> 00:03:59,082 - Yes, I remember you briefing me about that. - Right! There you go! We did tell you! 53 00:03:59,117 --> 00:04:02,605 - You mentioned nothing about a game, though. - Because at first we didn't know what it was... 54 00:04:02,606 --> 00:04:06,603 then Rodney studied it more closely. He realised it wasn't a geological lab at all. 55 00:04:06,638 --> 00:04:10,609 No, it turns out it was, in fact, a kind of, uh, Ancient game room. 56 00:04:10,610 --> 00:04:14,309 The map was of a fictional civilisation as part of a simulated world. 57 00:04:14,310 --> 00:04:16,050 Sweet! 58 00:04:16,051 --> 00:04:20,848 Yeah, what you do is, you'd take these countries that are already in the database and you'd assume control of them. 59 00:04:20,849 --> 00:04:23,460 Two societies separated by a river straight down the middle. 60 00:04:23,461 --> 00:04:24,460 Sheppard took one country; I took the other. 61 00:04:25,260 --> 00:04:30,177 First thing Rodney did was started by renaming his country and putting his face all over the flag. 62 00:04:32,910 --> 00:04:36,260 I think you need to check this planet out. 63 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:47,337 So the Ancestors created this game? 64 00:04:47,338 --> 00:04:49,260 So the Ancestors created this game? 65 00:04:49,261 --> 00:04:54,161 Yes, but this is no ordinary game. I mean, it is incredibly challenging, instructional... 66 00:04:54,162 --> 00:04:57,011 I mean, the sheer number of options built into it? Staggering. 67 00:04:57,012 --> 00:05:00,161 - How does one play it? - You have to figure out the best way to run your country. 68 00:05:00,162 --> 00:05:05,961 Yeah, you build roads, you establish laws moulded to your own specific ideology... 69 00:05:06,461 --> 00:05:11,462 - You can control everything: proper sanitation systems with water delivery... - transportation... 70 00:05:11,463 --> 00:05:17,462 I mean, every detail can be manipulated... I mean, right down to the women's hairstyles. 71 00:05:22,461 --> 00:05:23,862 Hello there! 72 00:05:23,863 --> 00:05:25,562 So how do you win this game? 73 00:05:25,563 --> 00:05:26,503 - It's not really about winning. - It's more about whose society outshines the other's. 74 00:05:26,504 --> 00:05:30,161 - It's not really about winning. - It's more about whose society outshines the other's. 75 00:05:30,162 --> 00:05:32,092 I mean, who creates a better infrastructure, who's better at trade. 76 00:05:32,093 --> 00:05:34,562 I mean, who creates a better infrastructure, who's better at trade. 77 00:05:35,712 --> 00:05:38,962 What? Hey, don't start. I tried to negotiate with you. 78 00:05:38,963 --> 00:05:43,062 Making a list of demands and not giving anything in return is not negotiating. 79 00:05:43,063 --> 00:05:45,262 I offered you an entire crop of beans. 80 00:05:45,263 --> 00:05:47,463 - I don't need beans. I need lumber. - Oh, right... 81 00:05:47,464 --> 00:05:52,862 to build defensive fortifications for your army, which he doubled in size, by the way. Surprise, surprise. 82 00:05:52,863 --> 00:05:55,463 - I only did that after you started cheating. - I did not cheat. 83 00:05:55,464 --> 00:05:59,163 He's giving his people way too much technology for their level of development. 84 00:05:59,164 --> 00:06:02,413 - I'm not the only one increasing my army, by the way. - I had to do something 85 00:06:02,414 --> 00:06:04,964 to protect the people of Geldar from you. 86 00:06:04,965 --> 00:06:08,063 - Geldar? - The name of Rodney's country. 87 00:06:08,064 --> 00:06:13,164 - He named it after a girl he stalked in college. - I did not stalk her. We dated twice. 88 00:06:13,165 --> 00:06:15,713 Teresa Geldar... a very cute blonde. 89 00:06:15,714 --> 00:06:22,214 I always used to think her name reminded me of some kind of a mythological land. The Kingdom of Geldar. 90 00:06:22,914 --> 00:06:24,664 What did you call your country? 91 00:06:24,665 --> 00:06:28,464 Well, I just kept the name it already had. 92 00:06:31,565 --> 00:06:34,739 - Well, there are the satellites. - Dozens of them. 93 00:06:34,774 --> 00:06:41,271 Positioned directly above the continent. A perfect grid... ten by ten. Should have a visual on one of them. 94 00:06:50,474 --> 00:06:52,815 - Definitely looks Ancient. - Huh. 95 00:06:52,816 --> 00:06:57,315 And active. It's transmitting a tremendous amount of data. 96 00:06:57,316 --> 00:06:59,965 Alright let's check it out. 97 00:07:24,566 --> 00:07:26,516 This is amazing! 98 00:07:26,517 --> 00:07:28,366 If you say so. 99 00:07:34,667 --> 00:07:39,117 Oh yeah! That's something you see in a medieval village! 100 00:07:39,118 --> 00:07:42,867 Yes, well, the Renaissance obviously came early to these folks. 101 00:07:42,868 --> 00:07:45,187 A couple of hundred years early? 102 00:07:50,551 --> 00:07:53,168 Um, Rodney? 103 00:08:14,902 --> 00:08:16,819 Say something. 104 00:08:16,820 --> 00:08:19,050 - Like what? - I don't know. 105 00:08:19,051 --> 00:08:23,364 Hello. I am Nola. 106 00:08:23,399 --> 00:08:27,768 Yes, well, uh, this is Lieutenant Colonel John Sheppard, Teyla Emmagan, 107 00:08:27,769 --> 00:08:34,269 Ronon Dex, and I'm McKay. Doctor Rodney McKay. 108 00:08:40,677 --> 00:08:43,586 The resemblance is uncanny. 109 00:08:48,269 --> 00:08:52,269 - You are the Oracle. - The Oracle? 110 00:09:02,519 --> 00:09:05,178 Welcome to Geldar. 111 00:09:11,375 --> 00:09:16,969 Please forgive my nervousness. I never thought you'd appear to us in the flesh. 112 00:09:16,970 --> 00:09:20,271 Why do you refer to him as the Oracle? 113 00:09:20,921 --> 00:09:23,170 The Oracle is a wise and omnipotent deity. 114 00:09:23,171 --> 00:09:25,195 Boy, she's in for a rude awakening. 115 00:09:25,230 --> 00:09:28,171 Thousands of years ago he gave our ancestors life. 116 00:09:28,172 --> 00:09:31,170 He instructed them how to build their society, how to live their lives. 117 00:09:31,171 --> 00:09:37,412 His guidance was revered by all. Then one day without warning, the Oracle ceased all communications. 118 00:09:37,447 --> 00:09:40,021 - War with the Wraith. - Our people were puzzled by this 119 00:09:40,022 --> 00:09:42,371 but they continued to adhere to his instructions 120 00:09:42,406 --> 00:09:47,921 living their lives according to his teachings which they passed down from generation to generation. 121 00:09:47,922 --> 00:09:51,272 Have you not had any trouble with the Wraith? 122 00:09:51,273 --> 00:09:56,771 Yes. They've come periodically... culled our people, destroyed our villages. 123 00:09:56,772 --> 00:10:01,922 Those who survived rebuilt, but only to the level at which the Oracle had instructed before he left. 124 00:10:01,923 --> 00:10:06,772 We found ourselves stalled in our development, unwilling to push forward without the Oracle's guidance, 125 00:10:06,773 --> 00:10:11,723 hoping one day he would return to us. And two years ago, he did. 126 00:10:11,724 --> 00:10:15,372 The Oracle resumed communicating with us, teaching us many new things. 127 00:10:15,373 --> 00:10:18,722 He challenged us to think, to push the limit of our scientific endeavours. 128 00:10:18,723 --> 00:10:21,873 He changed the name of our country and even revealed his likeness to us. 129 00:10:21,874 --> 00:10:24,373 Enough with the pictures! 130 00:10:24,374 --> 00:10:32,173 - Ah. And you communicate through that. - The portal, yes. 131 00:10:34,824 --> 00:10:37,273 It's through this that we receive our instructions. 132 00:10:37,274 --> 00:10:40,674 - And the Oracle knows when you have carried them out? - Yes. 133 00:10:40,675 --> 00:10:42,073 It's the satellites. 134 00:10:42,074 --> 00:10:44,474 They must be tracking everything that's going on and then relaying it 135 00:10:44,475 --> 00:10:46,524 via subspace back to Atlantis. It's remarkable. 136 00:10:46,525 --> 00:10:50,174 - So, not a game after all. - No, it's obviously some kind of... 137 00:10:50,175 --> 00:10:55,274 Ancient experiment... um, social development, try out different ways to create civilisations. 138 00:10:56,174 --> 00:11:00,274 - This country here. - Hallona. 139 00:11:01,024 --> 00:11:08,274 A persistent thorn in our side. Now that you've come to us, you can help us remove it. 140 00:11:15,025 --> 00:11:16,274 So this is it? 141 00:11:16,275 --> 00:11:19,925 Yes, yes. It is an amazing piece of technology. 142 00:11:19,926 --> 00:11:23,275 It appears to be a sociological experiment designed by the Ancients 143 00:11:23,276 --> 00:11:26,975 to help them as they were seeding various civilisations throughout Pegasus. 144 00:11:26,976 --> 00:11:29,475 I've had a chance to look at it further and it's interesting: 145 00:11:29,476 --> 00:11:32,326 there are many more civilisations in the game's database. 146 00:11:32,327 --> 00:11:35,525 Really? I thought Rodney said there were only two. 147 00:11:35,526 --> 00:11:36,626 That's what he thought. 148 00:11:36,627 --> 00:11:41,826 The actual countries that he and Colonel Sheppard are controlling are on this specific planet, 149 00:11:41,827 --> 00:11:49,626 but I've been able to access the codes to unlock additional levels to the game... I mean, to the experiment. 150 00:11:49,627 --> 00:11:54,176 I discovered countries on planets throughout the galaxy. 151 00:11:54,177 --> 00:11:58,626 Some have been idle for the past ten thousand years, I guess awaiting instructions from the Ancients... but, 152 00:11:58,627 --> 00:12:03,077 some have managed to develop on their own, even flourish. 153 00:12:03,078 --> 00:12:09,676 Some have been destroyed by war, and others have been completely wiped out. 154 00:12:09,677 --> 00:12:15,976 Not that Rodney's and Colonel Sheppard's societies are on this path. 155 00:12:17,876 --> 00:12:21,277 So much power at one's fingertips. 156 00:12:22,078 --> 00:12:27,377 It's amazing the attraction of this... game. 157 00:12:32,277 --> 00:12:35,578 We've managed to achieve propulsion through hand-powered propellers, 158 00:12:35,579 --> 00:12:39,078 but now we're undertaking tests of steam-powered propulsion. 159 00:12:39,079 --> 00:12:45,278 - Only this morning I completed a test that proved quite promising. - Really? That's great. 160 00:12:45,279 --> 00:12:50,679 - You're pleased? - Yes, yes. I mean, this is quite an achievement. 161 00:12:56,078 --> 00:12:58,128 What's he doing here? 162 00:12:58,129 --> 00:13:00,329 It wasn't my idea. 163 00:13:00,330 --> 00:13:04,479 Doctor Rodney McKay, meet Baden. 164 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,029 Oh. Your guy. 165 00:13:07,030 --> 00:13:09,679 - My guy. - Yeah, it figures. 166 00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:12,379 I should have you arrested for trespassing. 167 00:13:12,380 --> 00:13:14,879 - Go ahead and try. - Easy now. 168 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,629 I brought him here because we need to have a little discussion. 169 00:13:18,630 --> 00:13:20,979 I have nothing to say to him. 170 00:13:20,980 --> 00:13:24,029 - Fine with me. - Yeah, maybe not... 171 00:13:24,030 --> 00:13:27,580 but we definitely have something to say to you. 172 00:13:28,279 --> 00:13:31,930 So his story's pretty much the same as Nola's. 173 00:13:31,931 --> 00:13:35,580 His ancestors received instructions from their Oracle 174 00:13:35,581 --> 00:13:41,380 who disappeared for thousands of years, only to suddenly resume communicating a few years ago. 175 00:13:41,381 --> 00:13:45,880 - Let me guess: he told you to double the size of your army. - Yes, he has a capable army. 176 00:13:45,881 --> 00:13:50,680 And some nice villages. No people riding bicycles or hot air balloons, 177 00:13:50,681 --> 00:13:53,180 - because we weren't cheating. - I didn't cheat! 178 00:13:53,181 --> 00:14:00,281 - Have you come to agree to our trade proposals? - You mean demands? Never. 179 00:14:00,681 --> 00:14:06,081 - Then I refuse to sit at the same table... - Look, please, just... just sit. 180 00:14:07,431 --> 00:14:09,581 Thank you. 181 00:14:10,431 --> 00:14:17,032 This hostility between you, have your people lived like this for thousands of years? 182 00:14:17,033 --> 00:14:21,981 No. There was once peace between our lands. 183 00:14:22,982 --> 00:14:29,282 - Oh no. - So this hostility... um, did it start a few years ago? 184 00:14:29,283 --> 00:14:35,282 Yes... shortly after the Oracle resumed communicating with us. 185 00:14:41,332 --> 00:14:45,382 - So, what, they're starving? - Well, not as of yet, 186 00:14:45,383 --> 00:14:49,583 but if they don't change their approach to agriculture, it won't be too long before many of their people go hungry. 187 00:14:49,584 --> 00:14:53,633 The frustrating thing is that there is a large piece of fertile soil in the south of the country 188 00:14:53,634 --> 00:14:58,283 that would be ideal for tuber cultivation, you know? 189 00:14:58,284 --> 00:15:00,983 - Sorry, tuber? - Tuber, yeah, tuber. 190 00:15:00,984 --> 00:15:05,783 It is indigenous to the planet. It's a... it's like a potato. 191 00:15:06,584 --> 00:15:11,483 - So why didn't you say potato? - Because it's not a potato. It's... it's... it's 192 00:15:11,484 --> 00:15:19,283 larger. It has the same texture and nutrients as a potato but it's a... like a cantaloupe. 193 00:15:19,633 --> 00:15:23,333 - That's a pretty big potato. - Yeah, it is a big potato. 194 00:15:23,334 --> 00:15:25,084 So if they plant this thing there, it'll grow? 195 00:15:25,085 --> 00:15:29,884 Yeah, oh yes, whole fields of it. I mean, they could sustain an entire village but... 196 00:15:30,185 --> 00:15:33,509 they're oblivious to it. 197 00:15:33,544 --> 00:15:36,834 Tell em. Anonymously. 198 00:15:36,835 --> 00:15:43,185 Oh, c'mon, Doc, you can either stand here and let the people die, or you can help em out. 199 00:15:43,186 --> 00:15:46,384 Sounds like a no-brainer to me. 200 00:15:49,235 --> 00:15:50,148 As soon as we input the instructions into our console, they are relayed back to this device 201 00:15:50,149 --> 00:15:54,535 As soon as we input the instructions into our console, they are relayed back to this device 202 00:15:54,536 --> 00:15:57,035 by a number of satellites in orbit over your planet. 203 00:15:57,036 --> 00:15:59,035 Once you've carried out the instructions, 204 00:15:59,036 --> 00:16:04,286 the satellites transmit their real-time results back to us on our homeworld. 205 00:16:05,836 --> 00:16:09,686 So you're saying this is a game? 206 00:16:10,037 --> 00:16:18,736 - No, no... I mean, we thought it was a game, but, uh... - We didn't know there were real people on the other end. 207 00:16:18,737 --> 00:16:23,636 - You are the Oracle? - I'm your Oracle, yes. 208 00:16:23,637 --> 00:16:28,686 - That doesn't sound right. - I know this is difficult to absorb, but it is all true. 209 00:16:28,687 --> 00:16:31,386 You flew in the Puddle Jumper. You know they have the technology. 210 00:16:31,387 --> 00:16:35,236 - I'm not listening to this. - Just hold on here a sec. We can prove it to you. 211 00:16:35,237 --> 00:16:36,937 How? 212 00:16:36,938 --> 00:16:38,787 Let's go for a ride. 213 00:16:55,987 --> 00:16:59,588 Baden, Nola, this is Doctor Weir, leader of our expedition. 214 00:16:59,589 --> 00:17:01,688 Welcome to Atlantis. 215 00:17:01,689 --> 00:17:03,838 If these two gentlemen haven't done so already, 216 00:17:03,839 --> 00:17:09,088 let me please offer you our sincerest apologies for this intrusion into your lives. 217 00:17:09,089 --> 00:17:12,637 - Intrusion? - An imposition, maybe, and a benevolent one at that. 218 00:17:12,638 --> 00:17:17,288 - I mean, if you could have seen the villages now compared to the way they were when we started... - Rodney. 219 00:17:17,588 --> 00:17:24,088 - Now, why don't you take them to your game room... show them what you two have been up to? - Right. 220 00:17:24,589 --> 00:17:26,289 Shall we? 221 00:17:31,989 --> 00:17:35,989 So, this is Geldar and this is Hallona. Look, 222 00:17:35,990 --> 00:17:40,389 two weeks ago I instructed you to start digging a well for the new settlement on the eastern slope 223 00:17:40,390 --> 00:17:45,289 and on here... There. See? 224 00:17:48,289 --> 00:17:50,489 Construction's already begun. 225 00:17:50,889 --> 00:17:56,289 Yes. I gave the order myself. 226 00:17:58,289 --> 00:18:01,889 - Our lives are just a game. - Well, now, no. 227 00:18:01,890 --> 00:18:06,039 They're not games to you and, in our defence, 228 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,790 - we were trying to improve your lives. - It's like he said: 229 00:18:08,791 --> 00:18:12,790 everything we did, every instruction we gave was to better conditions for your people. 230 00:18:12,791 --> 00:18:16,290 - And if that meant cheating... - OK, you know, enough with that already! 231 00:18:21,390 --> 00:18:23,182 - Is the room OK? - It's fine. 232 00:18:23,183 --> 00:18:24,490 - Is the room OK? - It's fine. 233 00:18:24,491 --> 00:18:29,290 Well, then, if you need anything at all, don't hesitate to ask, OK? 234 00:18:30,041 --> 00:18:36,191 You hungry? Cause we could walk across to the Mess Hall. They've got, um, I think it's, uh, Salisbury steak today. 235 00:18:36,192 --> 00:18:41,291 It's very good. They have a gravy that they put on the... on the... steak part and, uh... 236 00:18:41,292 --> 00:18:44,692 The Oracle was a god to us. 237 00:18:45,791 --> 00:18:48,792 I believed in his teachings, 238 00:18:48,793 --> 00:18:54,191 so much so that my people elected me leader because of my passion for scientific advancement. 239 00:18:54,192 --> 00:18:56,792 Well, they obviously made the right choice. 240 00:18:56,793 --> 00:19:03,992 Now I must resolve myself to the fact that the Oracle is only a man. 241 00:19:03,993 --> 00:19:11,593 Yeah. Sorry about that. It's like I said, though... I did what I did with the best of intentions. 242 00:19:11,594 --> 00:19:13,192 To win a game. 243 00:19:13,193 --> 00:19:18,492 No. No, no. It is not about winning or losing. 244 00:19:18,493 --> 00:19:22,492 Look, the information I gave you and your people is very real, very useful. 245 00:19:22,493 --> 00:19:27,193 I've set you on a course that will allow you to develop into a modern society. 246 00:19:27,194 --> 00:19:32,593 I mean, what were you two years ago? You were a primitive, disparate cluster of villages stalled in development. 247 00:19:32,594 --> 00:19:38,294 Now you're making dirigibles. Do you have any idea how momentous that is? 248 00:19:39,393 --> 00:19:46,943 The Oracle once said, "Ask not what Geldar can do for you, but what you can do for Geldar. " 249 00:19:46,944 --> 00:19:51,193 - Those were your words. - Um, give or take. 250 00:19:51,194 --> 00:19:52,993 They are very wise. 251 00:19:53,393 --> 00:19:57,894 Yes. Yes, they are. 252 00:19:58,044 --> 00:20:02,144 Well, now that you know the truth, you can go back to living your own lives. 253 00:20:02,145 --> 00:20:04,644 We won't bother you any more. 254 00:20:04,645 --> 00:20:08,044 No. You must still help us. 255 00:20:08,045 --> 00:20:10,394 You don't need our help. You'll be fine. 256 00:20:10,395 --> 00:20:16,144 We need more weapons. The flying machine you brought us here in... 257 00:20:16,145 --> 00:20:20,445 you called it a Puddle Jumper. Our army could use it. 258 00:20:20,446 --> 00:20:23,295 No. Can't do that. 259 00:20:23,296 --> 00:20:27,944 - But you encouraged me to increase the military. - In response to McKay, 260 00:20:27,945 --> 00:20:34,995 - the other Oracle, doing things that I thought were, uh... - aggressive? Arrogant? 261 00:20:34,996 --> 00:20:37,445 Demeaning to me and my people? 262 00:20:37,446 --> 00:20:40,845 I will give you arrogant and demeaning but... 263 00:20:40,846 --> 00:20:48,346 The people of Geldar have started digging a mine beneath our borders to exploit coal resources on our land. 264 00:20:48,347 --> 00:20:50,045 Really? 265 00:20:50,046 --> 00:20:55,996 It was only confirmed yesterday. This after several diplomatic attempts to reach a compromise. 266 00:20:55,997 --> 00:21:01,646 Yeah, we couldn't come to an agreement but I didn't think he would start digging. 267 00:21:01,647 --> 00:21:06,847 I'm curious to know what response you would have to such an incursion. 268 00:21:06,848 --> 00:21:14,647 I believe your next command would be to launch an attack on the mine, prevent them from digging further. 269 00:21:16,047 --> 00:21:18,947 I'm right, aren't I? 270 00:21:22,397 --> 00:21:23,547 Did they believe you? 271 00:21:23,548 --> 00:21:28,647 - Yes. They are fully aware of the situation. Not too thrilled, obviously. - We've got a big problem, though. 272 00:21:28,648 --> 00:21:33,897 - What is it? - Game or no game, the fact remains we've started something these people don't seem to wanna stop. 273 00:21:33,898 --> 00:21:38,848 They hate each other and may be headed for a very real war. 274 00:21:39,148 --> 00:21:47,748 Great! Great... and this is thanks to your "benevolent imposition"? 275 00:21:52,798 --> 00:21:54,476 I've asked you both here this morning so we can have a face to face talk. 276 00:21:54,477 --> 00:21:56,598 I've asked you both here this morning so we can have a face to face talk. 277 00:21:56,599 --> 00:22:00,349 Now, hopefully, I can help you reach an understanding. 278 00:22:00,350 --> 00:22:01,748 Where's Doctor McKay? 279 00:22:01,749 --> 00:22:04,948 Well, I've asked that neither he nor Colonel Sheppard participate in this. 280 00:22:04,949 --> 00:22:09,649 I think they've already done enough in fostering the current tension between you. 281 00:22:09,650 --> 00:22:16,849 Now, I have had some experience brokering peace treaties. I'm sure we can find some common ground. 282 00:22:20,249 --> 00:22:28,599 OK. Why don't we start by going back a few years, to the time when your two peoples lived in peace? 283 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:33,050 We were naïve back then, ignorant to our potential. 284 00:22:33,051 --> 00:22:37,000 Once we began to challenge ourselves intellectually, 285 00:22:37,001 --> 00:22:41,949 we began to see how the people of Hallona had been abusing thousands of years of kindness from us. 286 00:22:41,950 --> 00:22:45,250 I've done everything I could to achieve peace with you. 287 00:22:45,251 --> 00:22:49,650 - Really?! Such as? - I sent gifts of goodwill. 288 00:22:49,651 --> 00:22:56,051 You sent crates of citrus fruit! Citrus! Do you have any idea what an insult that is to my people?! 289 00:22:56,052 --> 00:23:00,250 - It didn't used to be. - OK, see, I think I know where that comes from. 290 00:23:00,251 --> 00:23:06,201 Did M... the Oracle tell you that citrus fruit was bad? 291 00:23:06,202 --> 00:23:10,901 - He made us aware of its toxic properties, yes. - Everything is toxic to you! 292 00:23:10,902 --> 00:23:15,901 If they're not busy insulting us, they're complaining about contaminated food, 293 00:23:15,902 --> 00:23:19,851 improper hygiene. Even the sunlight is dangerous to them! 294 00:23:19,852 --> 00:23:24,852 The only insult has been your unwillingness to compromise in any trade negotiation. 295 00:23:24,853 --> 00:23:29,601 - Instead, you choose to increase the size of your army. - You built an army too! 296 00:23:29,602 --> 00:23:33,152 - Only in response to your aggression. - My aggression? 297 00:23:33,153 --> 00:23:38,202 You dig a mine beneath our border to steal our coal and you have the nerve to talk about aggression! 298 00:23:38,203 --> 00:23:41,353 - We're not stealing your coal. - You crossed into our land! 299 00:23:41,354 --> 00:23:45,303 What do you need it for anyway? It's not like you know the first thing about what to do with it. 300 00:23:45,304 --> 00:23:47,153 You see how she insults us? 301 00:23:47,154 --> 00:23:51,952 - By stating a fact. - Please. If we can discuss this reasonably, 302 00:23:51,953 --> 00:23:58,302 - I am sure we can come to some sort of... - We've tried. They agree to nothing. 303 00:23:58,303 --> 00:24:04,453 And until Doctor McKay is brought into this discussion, I have nothing further to say. 304 00:24:17,053 --> 00:24:18,853 That went well. 305 00:24:18,854 --> 00:24:24,104 Talk to them. Get them back to the table and hammer out a truce. I have run into a roadblock. 306 00:24:24,105 --> 00:24:26,604 - Really? Nola seemed very agreeable. - To you. 307 00:24:26,605 --> 00:24:31,754 - Yeah, well, more agreeable than Richard the Lionheart. - They are both refusing to compromise. 308 00:24:31,755 --> 00:24:35,204 You seem to have convinced them that they can't make any decisions without your guidance. 309 00:24:35,205 --> 00:24:36,905 That's not true. 310 00:24:36,906 --> 00:24:39,055 Tell them that. 311 00:24:39,504 --> 00:24:41,354 This is delicious! 312 00:24:41,355 --> 00:24:47,354 Listen, you need to make peace with the people of Hallona. If tensions keep rising like this, it could lead to war. 313 00:24:47,355 --> 00:24:51,305 - I'm aware of that. - Well, then, you're also aware that people will get hurt. 314 00:24:51,306 --> 00:24:53,455 I know the danger to my people. 315 00:24:53,456 --> 00:24:59,305 I also know you've taught us things Baden's band of knuckle-draggers won't learn for hundreds of years. 316 00:24:59,306 --> 00:25:03,655 Under your leadership, we hope to remain many steps ahead of any kind of aggression from them. 317 00:25:03,656 --> 00:25:08,855 Nola, you and your people need to start thinking for yourselves. Look, I'm not gonna be there for you any more. 318 00:25:08,856 --> 00:25:12,455 You need to take control of your own lives, start making your own decisions about your future. 319 00:25:12,456 --> 00:25:15,456 And there can be no future without peace. 320 00:25:15,457 --> 00:25:18,455 - I agree. - Good. 321 00:25:18,456 --> 00:25:21,056 And as soon as the people of Hallona either concede 322 00:25:21,057 --> 00:25:25,356 or get out of our way, peace will be restored. 323 00:25:25,357 --> 00:25:31,556 What you told me before, I do realise how monumental our progress has been, 324 00:25:31,557 --> 00:25:39,056 and I refuse to let Baden destroy that. "Great spirits have always encountered opposition from mediocre minds. " 325 00:25:39,057 --> 00:25:42,457 Those are the words of the Oracle. Your words. 326 00:25:42,458 --> 00:25:47,356 - Einstein's, actually, but, um... - If we yield one bit to Hallona, 327 00:25:47,357 --> 00:25:52,257 it will be equal to taking a giant step back in our development. 328 00:25:52,908 --> 00:25:57,857 I owe it to my people to make sure that does not happen. 329 00:26:01,408 --> 00:26:06,407 They're digging further. Every hour they intrude deeper into our land. 330 00:26:06,408 --> 00:26:09,707 To get them to stop, you have to provide an incentive. 331 00:26:09,708 --> 00:26:13,957 - Like attacking the mine? - That'll cause a whole nother set of problems. 332 00:26:13,958 --> 00:26:19,008 - The only problems will be with the people of Geldar. - Not necessarily. They can fight back. 333 00:26:19,009 --> 00:26:22,508 What are you saying... we should capitulate, let them do whatever they want? 334 00:26:22,509 --> 00:26:25,508 No. You make a deal, trade... 335 00:26:25,509 --> 00:26:30,408 say, you decide to share some of your weaponry and they in turn give you some of their technology. 336 00:26:30,409 --> 00:26:32,658 John? 337 00:26:32,659 --> 00:26:33,660 Go ahead. 338 00:26:33,661 --> 00:26:35,358 How's it going? 339 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,059 - Well, he's being a little, uh... - stubborn? 340 00:26:38,060 --> 00:26:39,008 - Well, he's being a little, uh... - stubborn? 341 00:26:39,009 --> 00:26:41,959 I was gonna use a different word. 342 00:26:45,859 --> 00:26:49,359 I'd like you to come to my office. We need to talk. 343 00:26:49,360 --> 00:26:51,309 They're not open to any kind of deal? 344 00:26:51,310 --> 00:26:55,759 Not yet. Maybe we should stick em in a room, force `eem to come to an agreement. 345 00:26:55,760 --> 00:27:00,510 Don't worry about it. They'll work it out. Look, we just happened to catch them at a particularly bad time. 346 00:27:00,511 --> 00:27:03,609 Sheppard's guy's been doing a lot of aggressive posturing of late. 347 00:27:03,610 --> 00:27:06,360 The only aggression is coming from the people of Gelding. 348 00:27:06,361 --> 00:27:08,460 - Geldar. - Whatever. 349 00:27:08,461 --> 00:27:12,860 His people are digging a mine across the border into Hallona. 350 00:27:14,360 --> 00:27:18,160 The coal resources straddle the border between my country and his. 351 00:27:18,161 --> 00:27:22,110 Barely! They go three miles into my country, which your people are happily tunnelling into. 352 00:27:22,111 --> 00:27:27,861 It has been a point of contention between us, OK, but it is just a difference in cartographic interpretation. 353 00:27:27,862 --> 00:27:31,561 - Tomayto. Tomahto. - No, no, it's pretty clear cut. 354 00:27:31,562 --> 00:27:33,411 You entered illegally into my country. 355 00:27:33,412 --> 00:27:35,981 - Gentlemen. - You gave me no choice! You refused to negotiate! 356 00:27:35,982 --> 00:27:39,261 - You mean give in. - What do you care anyway? It's not like your people were gonna use the coal! 357 00:27:39,262 --> 00:27:44,661 - Oh, yeah, that's right. You need it to power your medieval steam engines. - Stop it. 358 00:27:44,662 --> 00:27:46,561 These are not your lands. 359 00:27:46,562 --> 00:27:50,312 This game is over, so you'd better set aside your differences, 360 00:27:50,313 --> 00:27:53,961 because if the two of you can't figure out how to forge a truce, 361 00:27:53,962 --> 00:27:57,361 how the hell are these people going to? 362 00:27:58,012 --> 00:27:59,160 Rodney? 363 00:27:59,161 --> 00:27:59,812 What? 364 00:27:59,813 --> 00:28:02,062 You'd better come to the Game Room. 365 00:28:04,062 --> 00:28:08,662 - What happened? - We've just received a data stream from the planet. 366 00:28:12,762 --> 00:28:15,762 Colonel Sheppard's army has launched an attack. 367 00:28:16,612 --> 00:28:20,462 Don't look at me. I didn't order it. 368 00:28:25,163 --> 00:28:28,062 They're going after the mine! 369 00:28:31,663 --> 00:28:36,663 Well, looks like your war just started. 370 00:28:45,013 --> 00:28:47,513 Who ordered this? 371 00:28:47,514 --> 00:28:50,913 - I did. - He entered the command on your game console. 372 00:28:50,914 --> 00:28:53,764 I only did it because I know it's something you would have told me to do. 373 00:28:53,765 --> 00:28:56,613 I wanted you to make peace with these people! 374 00:28:56,614 --> 00:29:00,963 - This attack will not go unpunished. - No-one is doing any punishing. 375 00:29:00,964 --> 00:29:05,064 There'll be no further escalation to this conflict. 376 00:29:05,065 --> 00:29:09,164 There's no casualties reported. Looks like the mine was surrendered without a fight. 377 00:29:09,165 --> 00:29:12,464 I told my army to minimise collateral damage. 378 00:29:12,465 --> 00:29:16,865 You need to get back there. Take Ronon and Teyla with you. Go to your respective countries 379 00:29:16,866 --> 00:29:20,515 and make sure this does not get any further out of hand. 380 00:29:20,516 --> 00:29:26,165 No-one has been hurt yet. Let's keep it that way. 381 00:29:38,165 --> 00:29:40,815 - You're back. We were beginning to worry. - What's the status? 382 00:29:40,816 --> 00:29:43,416 I've ordered three army units to re-take the mine. They're on their way. 383 00:29:43,417 --> 00:29:45,766 - Oh no. No-no-no. You need to put a stop to that. - Why? 384 00:29:45,767 --> 00:29:48,665 Look, we just need to step back and re-assess the situation here, OK? 385 00:29:48,666 --> 00:29:51,616 We should be thinking about easing tensions, not inflaming them. 386 00:29:51,667 --> 00:29:57,166 - Oh no. They're continuing to advance. - What?! 387 00:29:57,167 --> 00:30:00,566 Divert the units away from the mine. Have them gather in the village, prepare to defend it. 388 00:30:00,567 --> 00:30:03,666 - Isn't this what she's supposed to be stopping? - Yes. Look, listen to me. 389 00:30:03,667 --> 00:30:06,466 - You cannot engage them. - We must protect our people. 390 00:30:06,467 --> 00:30:09,066 Look, I agree, but you've gotta give Sheppard some time. He'll call off the army. 391 00:30:09,098 --> 00:30:11,138 Will he? 392 00:30:13,940 --> 00:30:15,361 Sheppard. Come in. 393 00:30:15,362 --> 00:30:16,454 Go ahead. 394 00:30:16,455 --> 00:30:18,102 Are you watching what's going on here? 395 00:30:18,103 --> 00:30:19,899 We just got here. 396 00:30:19,900 --> 00:30:23,445 Pretty much the same set-up as yours. We don't have electricity, but 397 00:30:23,446 --> 00:30:25,383 I'm not gonna get into that right now. 398 00:30:25,384 --> 00:30:27,775 Your army is still on the march. 399 00:30:27,776 --> 00:30:29,227 What?! 400 00:30:29,228 --> 00:30:31,998 They're headed for one of my villages. You need to call them off before they... 401 00:30:31,999 --> 00:30:34,060 The attack has begun. 402 00:30:43,465 --> 00:30:45,702 Looks like you guys are giving up. 403 00:30:45,703 --> 00:30:48,287 What? No, no, no, that can't be right. 404 00:30:49,072 --> 00:30:50,766 That was fast, Rodney. 405 00:30:50,767 --> 00:30:53,922 They retreated without any kind of a fight. What kind of an army is that? 406 00:30:53,923 --> 00:30:56,871 - Well, at least there's no casualties. - It's alright. 407 00:30:56,872 --> 00:30:58,790 I have another plan. 408 00:30:59,887 --> 00:31:01,869 What other plan? 409 00:31:01,870 --> 00:31:04,056 Why are you asking me? 410 00:31:06,622 --> 00:31:08,173 Uh, what are you doing? 411 00:31:08,174 --> 00:31:10,477 - Preparing our counter-attack. - What counter-attack? 412 00:31:10,478 --> 00:31:14,158 From information you gave us about high-temperature and energetic materials technology, 413 00:31:14,159 --> 00:31:17,736 I have constructed a tactical explosive device. 414 00:31:17,737 --> 00:31:19,441 A bomb? You actually built a bomb? 415 00:31:19,442 --> 00:31:22,177 I told you we'd always be several steps ahead of Baden. 416 00:31:22,178 --> 00:31:23,629 How come I didn't know about this? 417 00:31:23,630 --> 00:31:26,177 We have yet to test it, so it still appears to not exist. 418 00:31:26,178 --> 00:31:28,736 We will target one of Hallona's outlying villages. 419 00:31:28,737 --> 00:31:32,680 How are you even gonna deliver it? I mean, the catapult couldn't possibly reach that far. 420 00:31:32,681 --> 00:31:33,410 I will deliver it. 421 00:31:33,411 --> 00:31:36,624 - Using one of the airships you taught us to build. Go. - Oh, no. 422 00:31:36,625 --> 00:31:38,076 No-no-no-no-no. Come back! 423 00:31:39,792 --> 00:31:42,572 You taught them how to build a bomb?! 424 00:31:42,573 --> 00:31:45,220 No! Well, not specifically. Look... 425 00:31:45,221 --> 00:31:48,888 Ok, maybe I provided them with a list of ingredients but... - I don't believe this! 426 00:31:48,889 --> 00:31:50,577 How much damage can it cause? 427 00:31:50,578 --> 00:31:51,962 Enough to take out an entire village. 428 00:31:51,963 --> 00:31:55,258 - Well, then, you must tell them to stop. - I tried that, but it's already on the way! 429 00:31:55,259 --> 00:31:57,496 How are they delivering it? 430 00:31:58,831 --> 00:31:59,947 Dirigible. 431 00:32:00,548 --> 00:32:02,431 You just had to cheat, didn't you? 432 00:32:02,458 --> 00:32:04,312 I did not cheat. Look... 433 00:32:04,313 --> 00:32:07,444 nowhere in the rules did it specifically outlaw the development of flying machines. Only the... 434 00:32:07,445 --> 00:32:09,396 degree and speed of technological advancement. 435 00:32:09,397 --> 00:32:11,750 Well, they advanced pretty damned fast, didn't they? 436 00:32:11,751 --> 00:32:14,482 Do we still have time to shoot it down? 437 00:32:14,701 --> 00:32:16,469 Yes. Yes, I think so. 438 00:32:17,055 --> 00:32:19,281 Then we'd better get moving. 439 00:32:19,617 --> 00:32:23,535 - Absurd! - What are you talking about? It's a perfectly reasonable request! 440 00:32:23,536 --> 00:32:26,942 Oh yeah. Perfectly reasonable! I give you all of my food and my people starve. 441 00:32:26,943 --> 00:32:29,176 - I am not asking you for all of your food! - Perfectly reasonable to me! 442 00:32:29,177 --> 00:32:33,534 - Plus I did say that we would make a deal. - A deal. Oh yeah. Baskets. 443 00:32:33,535 --> 00:32:37,301 Big baskets! Two dozen of them, hand-woven and very nice. 444 00:32:37,302 --> 00:32:40,051 Oh, very nice. What am I gonna put in them, huh? Certainly not food! 445 00:32:40,052 --> 00:32:43,795 You know what? I think you're holding out on me. I think you have plenty of food. 446 00:32:43,796 --> 00:32:47,483 - Are you calling me a liar?! - No, I think you're trying to squeeze me for a better deal, that's what I think. 447 00:32:47,484 --> 00:32:51,983 - I have got nothing to hide! Now, if you're... - Ok, ok, so maybe I'll send some of my army troops down and we'll have a look! 448 00:32:51,984 --> 00:32:54,762 What the hell are you two doing? 449 00:32:56,231 --> 00:33:01,202 I thought I gave specific orders to stay away from this device. 450 00:33:01,203 --> 00:33:02,367 Yes, yes, you did. 451 00:33:03,433 --> 00:33:08,134 We just saw that there were some people in trouble and we thought that maybe that we could... 452 00:33:08,135 --> 00:33:09,852 um... help. 453 00:33:09,853 --> 00:33:12,516 No! No more help. 454 00:33:12,517 --> 00:33:17,135 Clearly we are not qualified. Now turn this thing off, disconnect the power and seal the room. 455 00:33:17,136 --> 00:33:19,309 - Yeah but, ok, we... - Now! 456 00:33:21,450 --> 00:33:22,309 Yes. 457 00:33:29,270 --> 00:33:32,381 I hoped you would be proud of our accomplishments. 458 00:33:33,534 --> 00:33:37,721 I am, really. I just... I wish it didn't lead to this. 459 00:33:45,601 --> 00:33:47,146 What's that? 460 00:33:58,427 --> 00:34:00,006 There it is. 461 00:34:00,551 --> 00:34:05,295 - Good. Now all you have to do is puncture the balloon. - Already on it. 462 00:34:13,209 --> 00:34:15,021 Colonel Sheppard! 463 00:34:15,888 --> 00:34:19,665 - He shot down our airship with the Puddle Jumper! - Well, don't worry. No-one was hurt. 464 00:34:19,666 --> 00:34:23,632 He just... he punctured it. It sank harmlessly to the ground. 465 00:34:26,118 --> 00:34:28,107 Prepare the other bombs for delivery. 466 00:34:28,108 --> 00:34:31,201 - Other bombs? - What, you have more?! 467 00:34:33,565 --> 00:34:34,717 Great! 468 00:34:45,956 --> 00:34:47,927 Thank you for your help. 469 00:34:47,928 --> 00:34:50,437 You saved the lives of everyone in that village. 470 00:34:50,438 --> 00:34:52,893 We won't be doing that again. 471 00:34:53,403 --> 00:34:57,313 I had no idea they were capable of delivering such a device. 472 00:34:57,314 --> 00:34:58,912 Tell me about it! 473 00:34:58,913 --> 00:35:03,210 I've issued orders to make certain they don't try again. 474 00:35:03,211 --> 00:35:08,760 - What kind of orders? - A full-scale attack has been launched. 475 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,664 It's time to finish this war. 476 00:35:25,105 --> 00:35:28,493 I've seen this before. If two sides are dead set on fighting, nothing's gonna stop them. 477 00:35:28,494 --> 00:35:30,515 So I've gotta get Nola to call off the attack. 478 00:35:30,516 --> 00:35:32,608 You couldn't do it before. What makes you think you can now? 479 00:35:32,609 --> 00:35:36,835 How about a little encouragement, huh? You know, "Go get them, Rodney. I have faith in you"? 480 00:35:36,836 --> 00:35:39,567 Ok, whatever. Look, I am not giving up on these people, 481 00:35:39,568 --> 00:35:44,224 which means until we get them to call this war off, then we are staying put right here. 482 00:35:49,478 --> 00:35:52,829 - We could use your help. Come on. - Whoa, whoa, whoa, what the hell's going on? 483 00:35:52,830 --> 00:35:56,000 Elizabeth diverted the Daedalus on its way back to Earth to check up on us. 484 00:35:56,001 --> 00:35:58,504 Colonel Caldwell believed that the situation had deteriorated. 485 00:35:58,505 --> 00:36:01,276 He feared that we would become casualties of war and so beamed us out. 486 00:36:01,277 --> 00:36:05,590 Yeah, but I talked him into beaming us back, but we've gotta do something first, so come on. 487 00:36:05,591 --> 00:36:07,234 - Do what? - I've got a plan. 488 00:36:07,235 --> 00:36:08,978 - Oh, what plan? - Oh, come on, already. 489 00:36:08,979 --> 00:36:12,680 - How's the situation on your end? - All-out war. You? 490 00:36:16,626 --> 00:36:21,227 - Where did you go? What happened? - Uh, nowhere, nowhere. We were just upstairs. 491 00:36:21,228 --> 00:36:25,044 - Someone said you vanished into thin air. - What?! No, that's ridiculous. How could we vanish? 492 00:36:25,045 --> 00:36:28,247 The airships have passed the southern forest.
