[edit] Plot
Stargate Command is contacted by the Tok'ra and although Sam hopes that her father would come, Martouf visits them. He tells them that Jacob Carter/Selmak was captured by Sokar and sent to "hell" -- actually Ne'tu, the moon of Sokar's homeworld Delmak. The moon is a heavily guarded penal colony, and only person has ever escaped: Jolinar. Sokar is gaining power in the galaxy, and as the rescue of Jacob might help undermine his power, SG-1 agrees to a rescue mission with Martouf.
After going to another world using the Stargate, the team boards a Tel'tak to fly to Ne'tu, since the moon doesn't have its own Stargate. The plan is for Teal'c to stay on board and monitor them, as they'll have to take escape pods to reach the planet and the ship only has four. During their journey, Martouf uses a Tok'ra memory device to help Sam recover Jolinar's memories, since Jolinar never told anyone how she escaped. While it's activated, Sam sees memories of her father telling her about her mother's death, a romantic moment between Jolinar and Martouf, and an image of Sokar torturing Jolinar. They don't find any memories of the escape.
Arriving at the moon, the team takes the escape pods to the surface, where they enter a cave system. There they are surrounded by prisoners led by a Goa'uld named Nao'nak. Recalling more of Jolinar's memories, Sam claims they're here to see Bynarr, the lord of Ne'tu, who appears and has them imprisoned. Once locked in a cell, Sam explains that Bynarr is somehow the key to the escape. In the cell they also find Jacob, injured and weak from torture. Bynarr uses a Ring Transporter to Delmak where he meets up with Sokar and tells him about the new arrivals, whom he assumed were sent there by his lord. Sokar says he did nothing of the sort. On Ne'tu Jacob reveals that Sokar has created a giant fleet to destroy the other System Lords two weeks after he was captured. SG-1 relays this to Teal'c; if they don't make it out, he can still pass the intel to the Tok'ra High Council. When Sam is taken to Bynarr, she has flashbacks about Jolinar, who seduced Bynarr to flee by using the Ring Transporters in Bynarr's room. After a short interview he attempts to use his hand device to kill her, but is unexpectedly shot by his First Prime Nao'nak.
Sam is dragged back to the cell where she tells the others about what happened. They develop a plan to flee by using the Ring Transporter in Bynarr's room to reach the ones in the Tel'tak. They contact Teal'c, who is attacked by Death Gliders. The team breaks out of their cell and makes it to Bynarr's room, though Nao'nak sees them. Lacking the key for the Rings, Martouf tries to hotwire the controls. Just before he succeeds, Nao'nak and his soldiers walk in and capture them. Nao'nak declares that he will be known again by his true name—removing his helmet to show the horribly scarred face of Apophis.
[edit] Notes
- Peter Williams is not listed in the opening credits to prevent revealing the return of Apophis at the end of the episode.
- David Palfy (who plays Sokar) also plays Anubis, another powerful Goa'uld, who will appear in later episodes and who shares many similarities with Sokar.
