What are you still doing up? 35 00:01:57,034 --> 00:01:59,996 I think I got used to falling asleep to the sound of the ocean. 36 00:02:00,830 --> 00:02:02,081 Well, McKay says we're already 37 00:02:02,164 --> 00:02:04,041 at the edge of the Pegasus galaxy. 38 00:02:04,125 --> 00:02:06,627 You'll be fine once we get back to Atlantis. 39 00:02:08,296 --> 00:02:09,922 You know, it's funny. 40 00:02:10,006 --> 00:02:12,717 I spent the past year wondering if I'd ever see earth again 41 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,760 and as soon as I got there... 42 00:02:16,220 --> 00:02:17,763 I know how you feel. 43 00:02:17,972 --> 00:02:21,434 God, it was extremely convenient to be able to step through the gate 44 00:02:21,517 --> 00:02:23,227 and be at Stargate command in an instant. 45 00:02:23,311 --> 00:02:26,355 And now this feels extremely inconvenient. 46 00:02:26,439 --> 00:02:29,817 Having to spend 18 days cooped up in this ship to get back. 47 00:02:29,900 --> 00:02:32,403 Well, until we find another zpm to power the earth gate 48 00:02:32,486 --> 00:02:34,697 that's just the way it's gonna have to be. 49 00:02:34,780 --> 00:02:37,074 Dr. Weir. Colonel Sheppard. 50 00:02:37,283 --> 00:02:38,743 There's been an accident. 51 00:02:48,544 --> 00:02:50,421 That's Dr. Monroe. What happened? 52 00:02:50,755 --> 00:02:51,964 I don't know, 53 00:02:53,549 --> 00:02:55,092 but he's dead. 54 00:04:06,580 --> 00:04:08,999 All right. One, two, three. 55 00:04:11,419 --> 00:04:12,670 Carry on. 56 00:04:14,713 --> 00:04:16,006 How did he die? 57 00:04:16,090 --> 00:04:19,593 I'm not 100% certain, but there are burn marks on his fingertips. 58 00:04:21,429 --> 00:04:23,556 Sheppard: Obviously here there was a short. 59 00:04:25,474 --> 00:04:27,017 Panels are open, circuits are charred. 60 00:04:27,101 --> 00:04:29,979 There's not enough juice in those circuits to kill anyone. Doctor? 61 00:04:30,062 --> 00:04:34,066 I'll know more once I've had a chance to examine the body more thoroughly. 62 00:04:35,109 --> 00:04:36,735 Do you know what he was working on? 63 00:04:36,819 --> 00:04:38,654 Computer diagnostics. Strictly routine. 64 00:04:38,737 --> 00:04:40,823 I've got security-camera footage. 65 00:04:56,589 --> 00:04:59,008 What happened there? I don't know. It's a camera malfunction. 66 00:04:59,091 --> 00:05:01,969 Right before he was killed? Interesting coincidence. 67 00:05:02,470 --> 00:05:04,930 Actually, I think it makes sense. 68 00:05:05,014 --> 00:05:06,116 Look, colonel Caldwell was right. 69 00:05:06,140 --> 00:05:08,452 There's not enough juice in those circuits to kill someone. 70 00:05:08,476 --> 00:05:09,685 At least not normally. 71 00:05:09,768 --> 00:05:10,936 What are you thinking? 72 00:05:11,020 --> 00:05:13,940 It's possible there was some sort of isolated power surge in this section. 73 00:05:14,023 --> 00:05:16,293 That would explain the lost camera and the malfunctioning door. 74 00:05:16,317 --> 00:05:18,402 So when the door controls didn't respond 75 00:05:18,486 --> 00:05:22,072 he took out the panel to bypass the circuits and received a fatal jolt? 76 00:05:22,156 --> 00:05:23,282 Like I said, it's possible. 77 00:05:23,365 --> 00:05:25,010 Look, I recommend we drop out of hyperspace, 78 00:05:25,034 --> 00:05:27,095 run a full diagnostic on the power distribution systems. 79 00:05:27,119 --> 00:05:29,914 No. We drop out now, we risk being detected. 80 00:05:29,997 --> 00:05:31,397 That's true. I just think that if... 81 00:05:31,457 --> 00:05:33,375 We'll be back in Atlantis in less than two days. 82 00:05:33,459 --> 00:05:35,211 You can do your diagnostic then. 83 00:05:35,294 --> 00:05:37,505 Weir: Colonel, are you sure that's wise? 84 00:05:37,922 --> 00:05:39,131 With all due respect, doctor, 85 00:05:39,215 --> 00:05:40,734 you got back to earth through the Stargate. 86 00:05:40,758 --> 00:05:42,819 This is my third trip on the daedalus between galaxies. 87 00:05:42,843 --> 00:05:45,179 I understand that. But this ship is relatively new. 88 00:05:45,262 --> 00:05:49,058 There might be some problems... doctor, a word, please? 89 00:05:57,191 --> 00:05:59,669 I know the chain of command can get a little fuzzy on Atlantis, 90 00:05:59,693 --> 00:06:01,362 but that's not gonna happen here. 91 00:06:01,445 --> 00:06:03,757 You got a problem with my orders, take it to me in private. 92 00:06:03,781 --> 00:06:06,033 Otherwise, keep your opinions to yourself. 93 00:06:06,116 --> 00:06:08,452 Are you sure that's what this is all about? 94 00:06:08,536 --> 00:06:11,830 I got a job to do, doctor. But not the one you wanted. 95 00:06:17,002 --> 00:06:18,963 We understand the international committee 96 00:06:19,046 --> 00:06:20,881 has approved a significant increase 97 00:06:20,965 --> 00:06:24,385 in personnel and resources for the Atlantis mission. 98 00:06:24,468 --> 00:06:28,722 Now that we have a zpm, the city can support a much larger contingent. 99 00:06:29,056 --> 00:06:30,075 Of course, it's our feeling 100 00:06:30,099 --> 00:06:32,393 that a corresponding increase in military presence 101 00:06:32,476 --> 00:06:33,894 would also be prudent. 102 00:06:33,978 --> 00:06:35,187 I agree. 103 00:06:35,271 --> 00:06:37,690 That's why I wanted major Sheppard to come back with me. 104 00:06:37,773 --> 00:06:41,652 In fact, I brought all my senior staff back. 105 00:06:41,735 --> 00:06:44,113 I think it's only fair that they participate 106 00:06:44,196 --> 00:06:46,115 in the selection process of the new personnel 107 00:06:46,198 --> 00:06:48,117 in their respective departments. 108 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,744 That's kind of what we wanted to talk to you about. 109 00:06:50,828 --> 00:06:53,163 In your report, you singled major Sheppard 110 00:06:53,247 --> 00:06:55,291 out for a lot of credit. 111 00:06:55,749 --> 00:06:56,959 That's right. 112 00:06:57,042 --> 00:07:01,589 You were also candid enough to document several occasions in which 113 00:07:02,506 --> 00:07:05,718 you and the major didn't exactly see eye to eye. 114 00:07:05,801 --> 00:07:09,597 In particular, there was an incident involving an alien nanovirus 115 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,434 in which major Sheppard directly disobeyed one of your orders. 116 00:07:14,935 --> 00:07:17,479 He also saved a lot of lives that day. 117 00:07:19,565 --> 00:07:23,444 The major's courage and ingenuity are not in question here. 118 00:07:23,527 --> 00:07:26,697 His ability to follow the proper chain of command is. 119 00:07:26,780 --> 00:07:28,365 I'm not military, general. 120 00:07:28,449 --> 00:07:30,159 But you are the leader of the expedition. 121 00:07:30,242 --> 00:07:31,761 You see, doctor, from our point of view 122 00:07:31,785 --> 00:07:35,205 major Sheppard's independent nature poses a bit of a problem. 123 00:07:35,289 --> 00:07:36,790 If he can disobey you, 124 00:07:37,666 --> 00:07:39,918 he may see fit to do the same 125 00:07:40,002 --> 00:07:44,256 to the new commander of the military contingent on Atlantis. 126 00:07:44,423 --> 00:07:47,468 Excuse me? And when did this happen? 127 00:07:48,177 --> 00:07:50,763 Of course, the decision hasn't been made yet. 128 00:07:51,305 --> 00:07:53,932 But we do have a candidate in mind. 129 00:08:01,690 --> 00:08:04,318 Atlantis has a military commander. 130 00:08:04,485 --> 00:08:07,321 You had a military commander. Colonel Sumner. 131 00:08:08,864 --> 00:08:10,449 When he was killed, 132 00:08:10,532 --> 00:08:13,661 major Sheppard correctly assumed the position 133 00:08:14,286 --> 00:08:16,997 until a proper replacement could be brought in. 134 00:08:17,414 --> 00:08:18,957 Doctor, you can't be suggesting 135 00:08:19,041 --> 00:08:22,461 that a mission of this importance be trusted to a major, 136 00:08:22,544 --> 00:08:25,005 and one with a questionable record at that. 137 00:08:25,089 --> 00:08:29,009 Major Sheppard's record before he joined my team doesn't concern me. 138 00:08:29,301 --> 00:08:31,387 All I can tell you is that if it wasn't for him, 139 00:08:31,470 --> 00:08:34,098 I wouldn't be sitting here right now. 140 00:08:34,181 --> 00:08:35,683 And as for his rank, 141 00:08:36,975 --> 00:08:39,186 if that's not good enough for you, 142 00:08:39,269 --> 00:08:41,522 you're just gonna have to promote him. 143 00:08:41,605 --> 00:08:42,648 Doctor... 144 00:08:42,731 --> 00:08:44,858 I shouldn't have to remind you, gentlemen, 145 00:08:44,942 --> 00:08:49,196 that I continue to have the support of the president and our foreign allies. 146 00:08:50,698 --> 00:08:53,242 You don't wanna fight me on this one. 147 00:09:08,841 --> 00:09:11,385 All right. Thank you. 148 00:09:12,010 --> 00:09:13,887 Colonel Caldwell. What is it, doctor? 149 00:09:13,971 --> 00:09:15,240 Look, I realize you've already made it clear 150 00:09:15,264 --> 00:09:17,367 that you're not big on the whole dropping out of hyperspace thing, 151 00:09:17,391 --> 00:09:18,910 which I understand, given that we would emerge 152 00:09:18,934 --> 00:09:20,774 in some uncharted section of the Pegasus galaxy 153 00:09:20,853 --> 00:09:22,872 with who knows what waiting for us around the corner... 154 00:09:22,896 --> 00:09:25,482 Doctor. Look, I think it's possible 155 00:09:25,566 --> 00:09:28,193 that doctor Monroe's death might not have been an accident. 156 00:09:28,318 --> 00:09:30,988 What you talking about? Ichecked the power-distribution logs 157 00:09:31,071 --> 00:09:32,716 against the time code on the security camera. 158 00:09:32,740 --> 00:09:34,324 There was an unexplained spike, 159 00:09:34,408 --> 00:09:36,768 but it happened a full 30 seconds after the camera went out. 160 00:09:37,828 --> 00:09:39,889 So that means the malfunctions in the door and the camera 161 00:09:39,913 --> 00:09:41,266 were not caused by the same problem. 162 00:09:41,290 --> 00:09:43,518 Major Sheppard was right. There's too much of a coincidence. 163 00:09:43,542 --> 00:09:45,461 You mean lieutenant colonel Sheppard. 164 00:09:45,544 --> 00:09:46,587 Right. 165 00:09:46,670 --> 00:09:48,714 That's gonna take some getting used to. 166 00:09:48,839 --> 00:09:51,300 Is that the only evidence you have? No. Something else. 167 00:09:51,383 --> 00:09:52,509 It looks like Dr. Monroe 168 00:09:52,593 --> 00:09:53,802 was in the process of enabling 169 00:09:53,886 --> 00:09:55,345 certain computer security protocols. 170 00:09:55,429 --> 00:09:58,474 They're designed to isolate and shut down corrupted programs. 171 00:09:58,557 --> 00:10:00,017 What programs? I don't know. 172 00:10:00,100 --> 00:10:01,911 That's just it. He was killed before he could finish. 173 00:10:01,935 --> 00:10:03,855 You're telling me there's a problem with the ship 174 00:10:03,896 --> 00:10:05,564 and someone killed Monroe to cover it up? 175 00:10:05,647 --> 00:10:06,857 I know this sounds crazy, 176 00:10:06,940 --> 00:10:10,277 but there is definitely more going on here than random malfunctions. 177 00:10:11,528 --> 00:10:13,113 Bridge, this is Caldwell. 178 00:10:13,405 --> 00:10:15,115 Drop us out of hyperspace immediately. 179 00:10:32,841 --> 00:10:36,595 If I may be so bold, what exactly are we looking for? 180 00:10:36,678 --> 00:10:40,015 Any indication that someone's been tampering with the ship's computers. 181 00:10:40,140 --> 00:10:43,769 Perhaps you could be more specific. Not really, no. 182 00:10:44,144 --> 00:10:46,230 (Mumbling) 183 00:10:46,313 --> 00:10:47,439 What was that? 184 00:10:47,773 --> 00:10:48,774 Nothing. 185 00:10:49,107 --> 00:10:50,734 Look, just check the major systems. 186 00:10:50,818 --> 00:10:52,402 Propulsion, navigation, life support. 187 00:10:52,486 --> 00:10:53,880 Look for anything out of the ordinary. 188 00:10:53,904 --> 00:10:55,548 Lindstrom and I will check power distribution 189 00:10:55,572 --> 00:10:57,772 to see if we can figure out what caused the power spike. 190 00:10:57,825 --> 00:11:01,119 How's it coming, Rodney?

What do you mean? 321 00:17:50,070 --> 00:17:53,114 It appears to be rewriting itself as it grows. 322 00:17:53,198 --> 00:17:57,035 It is unlike any human-engineered program I have ever encountered. 323 00:17:57,452 --> 00:17:58,578 Yeah. 324 00:17:59,579 --> 00:18:01,915 Airperson, don't be there. 325 00:18:03,208 --> 00:18:04,501 What are you doing? 326 00:18:04,584 --> 00:18:07,545 I'm just checking something, I'm sure it is impossible. 327 00:18:13,093 --> 00:18:14,261 Crap. 328 00:18:14,678 --> 00:18:16,054 What did you do? 329 00:18:17,097 --> 00:18:19,307 I just ran it through a translation program. 330 00:18:20,350 --> 00:18:21,518 It's wraith. 331 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,107 Crap, indeed. 332 00:18:29,526 --> 00:18:30,986 A wraith computer virus. 333 00:18:31,069 --> 00:18:33,571 It was probably downloaded during our last little encounter. 334 00:18:33,655 --> 00:18:35,198 Well, if it's been there all this time, 335 00:18:35,282 --> 00:18:36,467 why are we just noticing it now? 336 00:18:36,491 --> 00:18:39,244 Well, in all likelihood it was transmitted in a compressed format. 337 00:18:39,327 --> 00:18:40,537 It took a while to unfold, 338 00:18:40,620 --> 00:18:43,665 to spread to the point where it could adversely affect our systems. 339 00:18:43,748 --> 00:18:46,185 I think it probably happened during your return flight to earth. 340 00:18:46,209 --> 00:18:47,409 Since then, it's been dormant, 341 00:18:47,460 --> 00:18:48,962 waiting for some kind of a trigger. 342 00:18:49,045 --> 00:18:50,297 Like what? 343 00:18:50,463 --> 00:18:54,217 Possibly the fact that we're once again in proximity to wraith territory. 344 00:18:54,301 --> 00:18:57,554 I think it was ultimately designed to take control of the navigational system. 345 00:18:57,637 --> 00:18:59,764 Fly the ship right to them. 346 00:19:00,598 --> 00:19:02,642 If they get their hands on the daedalus, 347 00:19:02,726 --> 00:19:04,019 they'll not only have access 348 00:19:04,102 --> 00:19:05,895 to the intergalactic hyperdrive technology, 349 00:19:05,979 --> 00:19:07,456 but they will have all the navigational data 350 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:08,582 to lead them straight to earth. 351 00:19:08,606 --> 00:19:11,609 That's what they wanted all along, a new feeding ground. 352 00:19:11,693 --> 00:19:14,404 This still doesn't explain who killed Dr. Monroe and Dr. Lindstrom. 353 00:19:14,487 --> 00:19:15,947 That's what I'm trying to tell you. 354 00:19:16,031 --> 00:19:17,407 It was the virus. 355 00:19:19,284 --> 00:19:21,161 Look, it's an al, an artificial intelligence. 356 00:19:21,244 --> 00:19:23,496 It can think for itself, adapt itself to new sfluafions_. 357 00:19:23,580 --> 00:19:25,248 Protect itself. Exactly. 358 00:19:25,332 --> 00:19:27,667 It knew that lindstrom and Monroe were gonna expose it, 359 00:19:27,751 --> 00:19:28,877 so it got rid of them. 360 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,504 Can it take over the whole ship? Not entirely. 361 00:19:31,588 --> 00:19:34,483 You have to remember that there are 100s of individual computers on board. 362 00:19:34,507 --> 00:19:35,800 A lot of them are interconnected 363 00:19:35,884 --> 00:19:37,653 so we tend to think of them as one big machine, 364 00:19:37,677 --> 00:19:38,821 but that's not really the case. 365 00:19:38,845 --> 00:19:41,056 There are dozens of back-ups and redundancies 366 00:19:41,139 --> 00:19:44,142 and some systems like life-support, are deliberately isolated. 367 00:19:44,225 --> 00:19:47,145 So they can't kill us all by venting the atmosphere. 368 00:19:47,228 --> 00:19:48,480 That was the good news. 369 00:19:48,563 --> 00:19:50,565 The bad news is some of the more complex systems 370 00:19:50,648 --> 00:19:52,442 like navigation and propulsion, 371 00:19:52,525 --> 00:19:55,362 require a certain amount of interconnectivity to function properly. 372 00:19:55,445 --> 00:19:57,447 In all likelihood, the virus has spread so far 373 00:19:57,530 --> 00:19:59,130 through those systems, that to isolate it 374 00:19:59,199 --> 00:20:01,159 would make the ship impossible to fly. 375 00:20:02,118 --> 00:20:04,621 Till we figure out how to get rid of it, we're stuck here. 376 00:20:04,704 --> 00:20:05,704 (Beeping) 377 00:20:05,747 --> 00:20:08,792 Colonel Caldwell?

They were. 531 00:29:42,865 --> 00:29:45,117 When we did the reboot there was no sign of the virus. 532 00:29:45,201 --> 00:29:46,702 This shouldn't be happening. 533 00:29:48,287 --> 00:29:51,958 Sir, we've got another problem. It's our new heading. 534 00:29:53,042 --> 00:29:55,503 We're on a collision course with the nearest star. 535 00:30:02,510 --> 00:30:04,720 The virus returned almost immediately 536 00:30:04,804 --> 00:30:06,764 after we restarted the system. 537 00:30:08,182 --> 00:30:09,892 At the risk of repeating myself, 538 00:30:09,976 --> 00:30:11,286 I thought you said we wiped it out. 539 00:30:11,310 --> 00:30:12,790 We did. We must have missed something. 540 00:30:12,853 --> 00:30:14,730 And it's gonna crash us into a sun. 541 00:30:14,814 --> 00:30:16,232 Not exactly. 542 00:30:16,649 --> 00:30:19,360 A more precise calculation of our heading 543 00:30:19,443 --> 00:30:21,862 shows that we will not collide with the star, 544 00:30:21,946 --> 00:30:25,616 but rather make a close approach, near its coronasphere. 545 00:30:25,741 --> 00:30:30,579 The ship will survive, but the radiation will kill everyone on board. 546 00:30:31,247 --> 00:30:34,291 Why kill everyone if they already have full navigational control? 547 00:30:34,375 --> 00:30:36,002 The virus has access to our database, 548 00:30:36,085 --> 00:30:37,795 it knows our tactics, our tendencies... 549 00:30:37,878 --> 00:30:42,174 They know we'd destroy the ship before we'd allow it to fall into wraith hands. 550 00:30:42,425 --> 00:30:43,718 Wait a minute. 551 00:30:44,719 --> 00:30:47,155 There was a situation similar to this back at Stargate command. 552 00:30:47,179 --> 00:30:48,431 I remember reading the report. 553 00:30:48,514 --> 00:30:50,683 An alien entity took control of the base computer. 554 00:30:50,766 --> 00:30:52,601 So they did a system shutdown to destroy it. 555 00:30:52,685 --> 00:30:55,021 It survived by uploading itself onto a malp. 556 00:30:55,187 --> 00:30:56,772 Okay, we don't have any malps. 557 00:30:56,856 --> 00:30:59,150 No, but we've got a bay full of f-302s. 558 00:30:59,275 --> 00:31:01,027 We already know the virus can upload itself 559 00:31:01,110 --> 00:31:02,504 onto the ship's navigational computers. 560 00:31:02,528 --> 00:31:04,131 But it could've used any one of those ships 561 00:31:04,155 --> 00:31:06,174 as a hiding place while we wiped the daedalus system clean. 562 00:31:06,198 --> 00:31:08,617 It's the only possible explanation. So? 563 00:31:08,993 --> 00:31:12,705 So, we physically pull the memory-storage modules from the 302s, 564 00:31:12,788 --> 00:31:15,583 we do another shutdown, that should do the trick. 565 00:31:15,958 --> 00:31:19,378 Contact the bridge, tell Caldwell we're on our way to the bay now. 566 00:31:37,688 --> 00:31:40,566 It's not working. Let's try another way. 567 00:31:49,325 --> 00:31:50,576 It's the virus. 568 00:31:50,618 --> 00:31:52,888 It must know what we're trying to do. How's that possible? 569 00:31:52,912 --> 00:31:55,552 It's thinking ahead, anticipating our moves, like in a chess match. 570 00:31:55,581 --> 00:31:57,701 I hope you're good at chess. I don't get to play much. 571 00:31:57,750 --> 00:32:00,503 It's tough finding challenging opponents. 572 00:32:03,756 --> 00:32:05,007 Bridge, this is Sheppard. 573 00:32:05,091 --> 00:32:07,927 Are there any open paths to the 302 bay? 574 00:32:08,260 --> 00:32:09,553 That's a negative, colonel. 575 00:32:09,637 --> 00:32:11,490 Looks like the entire section's been sealed off. 576 00:32:11,514 --> 00:32:13,658 We tried to override it, but we're not having any luck. 577 00:32:13,682 --> 00:32:14,785 You're gonna have to beam us in. 578 00:32:14,809 --> 00:32:16,185 (Exclaiming) Wait a minute. 579 00:32:16,268 --> 00:32:19,414 Transport beam wasn't designed to beam from one point to another point inside the ship. 580 00:32:19,438 --> 00:32:21,565 We could end up re-materializing half inside a wall. 581 00:32:22,691 --> 00:32:26,195 Well, we're just gonna have to take that chance. 582 00:32:26,278 --> 00:32:28,572 Right, of course.
