" (Daniel) No survivors." " (O'Neill) No bodies, either." "(Daniel) Based on the overgrowth, I guess this place was destroyed a long time ago." "(Carter) Faint energy readings definitely coming from here." "Nothing dangerous, as far as I can tell." "(Daniel) She's perfectly preserved." "This must be some sort of tomb or crypt of some kind." "(Carter) Or a science lab." "Why would you say that?" "Cos these energy readings I'm getting seem to be coming from her." "It's Colonel O'Neill, sir." " General." " Colonel." "What do you have to report?" "Yeah, confirming initial MALP recon." "The place is pretty much toast." "However, Carter did find something." " Care to expand on that?" " She thinks it's a robot, sir." "Sir, I'm positive this is some sort of artificial life form, but I can't be sure of anything more under these conditions." "Request permission to bring it back to the SGC for further evaluation." "Can you assure me that will be safe?" "It appears to be inactive, sir." "I'm getting only very faint energy readings." "I believe we could isolate it safely." "It is definitely worth examining." "It also may be the last remnants of the civilisation, and the key to finding out exactly what happened here, sir." " Very well." "Bring it through." " Thank you." " (Carter) Thank you." " (Daniel) Out, sir." " Hey, Janet." " Hey." "How's the new toy?" "Amazing." "This is more advanced than any android we've encountered before." "Check this out." "That some sort of nanotechnology?" "They seem to be some sort of self-repair mechanism." "Yeah, but they're inactive." "They seem to deactivate when disconnected from it... or her." "According to the ultrasonic scan, the power system is centred here." "There seems to be some sort of mechanism to access it from the outside." "I was just about to try it out." "Wow." "The Greeks, Romans, Babylonians envisioned synthetic beings with human behaviour long before the words "robot" or "android" were ever uttered." "Yeah." "So?" "So it's been our nature to seek immortality through the creation of vessels for our consciousness." "Vessels?" "Colonel O'Neill, Dr Jackson." "Major Carter and I were just discussing whether or not to activate the robot." "You can?" "I think I've found a way to recharge the main power cell." "Prior to this, it's been operating on less than 1% capacity." "I'm hoping that was enough to maintain the memory systems, assuming it had any to begin with, of course." "Of course." "Why do you wanna do this again?" "Sir, this is an incredibly advanced piece of technology." "Given enough time, I might be able to figure out how some of its functions work." "The neurological system seems to be as complex as a human brain." "So?" "So, I'm hoping that the robot will be able to help me understand... itself, sir." "Now what?" "I don't know." "The power cell should be fully charged." "As far as I can tell, there isn't an "on" switch." "It's possible the power was depleted for too long." "Why don't you kiss her?" "(gasps)" " There's a pulse." " It has a heartbeat?" "It has a heart?" "It's designed to create a very realistic illusion of humanity." "Where am I?" "You're in a special facility on the planet Earth." "My name is Daniel Jackson." "This is Major Samantha Carter and Jack O'Neill." "Hi." "My name is Reese." " Where's my father?" " We're not sure." "Please just let me explain." " Don't hurt me." " No one wants to hurt you." " How did I get here?" " Um..." "We found you on your planet, we brought you through the Stargate." " What is that?" " (Carter) There was one on your planet." "It can be used to travel great distances through space." "We can tell you more about it later." "Why did you bring me here?" "I suppose there's no easy way to tell you this, but the civilisation on your planet was destroyed." " How?" " We don't know." "We were sort of hoping you could tell us." "I, uh..." " I was asleep." " Yes, we found you that way." "What about my father?" "Well, as far as we could tell, you were the only survivor." "You don't know anything about what happened?" "My father knew there was danger." "He told me to go to sleep." "He said he would wake me when the danger went away." "We're very sorry." "What do you want?" "Well, we want to understand." " What?" " Your planet and its history and..." " You." " What about me?" "Well, I'd really like to know more about how you work." "Your systems, how they function." " I'm like you." " Uh, not exactly." "At least as far as I can tell." " How are we different?" " Sam, can I have... can I have a word?" "Yeah." "We're just gonna step outside for a minute." "Will you be OK?" "We'll be right back." "Excuse me." "I don't think she knows she's a robot." "OK, how is that possible?" "When your consciousness was copied into a robot, you didn't know right away." "What are you suggesting?" "We shouldn't reveal the reality of her existence moments after telling her her planet was destroyed." "Why?" "It's a machine." "She just found out her father is dead." " It's a machine." " He's right." " It's not like it ever had a real father." " Maybe not." "Maybe it's her creator." "Or maybe we're talking to the consciousness of a human being who once had a father." "We should be careful about deciding what is and what isn't a life form." "I agree." "All I'm saying is, if she doesn't know what she is, she has a right to." "OK." "Maybe we should wait a while." "I mean, she did seem pretty upset." "For a machine." "We don't know what psychological effect it will have." "Psychological?" "Whether her behaviour is a result of sophisticated programming or not, the best way to find out about her and what she knows is by dealing with her on her own terms, at least for now." "Couldn't hurt." " It doesn't make any sense." " Which part?" "Why would somebody destroy an entire civilisation, but leave one piece of incredibly advanced technology intact?" "That's what he's figuring out." "What I'm saying is, maybe there's something on the planet that we missed." "I'll go back." "Is the rest of your planet like this place?" "No, it's very different." "What's it like?" "There's lots of varying climates, different landscapes, big oceans, a wide range of civilisations." "And each is home to a lot of different kinds of people." " It sounds beautiful." " Much of it is." "Can I see it?" "Soon." "Why not now?" "Well, because we still have more to talk about, Reese." "I know, but, you know, we've been talking for so long now." "I know, but you must know a lot more than what we've already talked about." "I do know a lot." "What can you tell me about the danger that came to your planet?" "Well, this may have turned out to be one colossal waste of time." " You boys find anything?" " Just lots of debris." "I think our work is done here." "You said to look for anything uncharacteristic of the indigenous technology, right?" "I would never say anything like that, Major." "Right." "Major Carter said not to ignore anything, however insignificant it may seem." " What have you got?" " I'm sure it's nothing, but we found a bunch of these." "I've never seen anything like them before." "You know what they are?" "Oh, yeah." "No energy readings." "I'd say these blocks are dead." "Probably been on the planet since it was destroyed." "Replicators were the cause of the destruction?" "The first evidence of the replicators in this galaxy." "That must have been a long time ago." "Something still doesn't fit." "The replicators we know go after advanced technology." "Why would they eat everything on the planet and leave Reese alone?" "Perhaps she has some means of defending herself." "She was asleep." "It's possible that she's giving off a signal or frequency that repels them, maybe not even by design, but by coincidence." "Bug spray?" "Reese herself may be the key to helping us in our fight against the replicators." "Yeah, maybe, but we're still a long way from determining that." " Dr Jackson, what have you learned?" " Well, actually, not much, sir." "She's hard to pin down in a conversation, her attention wanders." "It's like she has the mind of a child." "What?" "I'm not sure, but she may not be telling me everything she knows." " You think she's hiding something?" " I get that feeling." "Why would someone create a robot with the mind of a child?" "Well, like Daniel suggested, it could be a transferred consciousness, or it could be that the creator intended for her to be mature, but couldn't get the programming right." "But if she is hiding something, we should proceed carefully with further interactions." "Sir, I think it's time that we told Reese the truth." "Daniel, maybe if she's forced to confront the fact that she's an artificial life form, it could change any pre-program priorities that she's adhering to." " I'm so happy you're here." " What's that?" "Oh, I made it." "Do you like it?" "It's very nice." "How did you make this?" "I'm so tired of this room, Daniel." "Can I please go outside?" "Sit down for a minute, Reese." "We need to talk." " No." " This'll just take a minute." "Sit down." "I don't wanna talk any more." "I wanna have fun!" "Don't you ever have fun?" "Not as much as I'd like to." "This is very important." "Sit!" " Then can we have some fun?" "Promise?" " Yes." "OK, um..." "Reese, you know there are different kinds of people, right?" "Of course." "In fact, there are many different kinds of life forms." "This is boring." "I'm starting to identify with this girl more and more." "Reese, I know you think that we're the same, but we're not." " My father always said I was special." " You are." "You are very special." "But despite the fact that you and I look very much the same, we're very different." " That's obvious." " I mean on the inside." "How?" "Well, I am flesh and blood." "You are a machine." "A very, very sophisticated machine." "More of a... a computer, really." " I'm alive." " Yes, you are, just not like me." "Even though you were created to be very human-like, you are not human." "Yes, I am!" "No, you're not, Reese, OK?" "I can prove that to you." "No!" "I wanna leave you!" "Let me out!" "Let me out!" "Now!" "Hey, that went well." "Maybe her programming prevents her acknowledging she's anything but human." "Robot denial?" "Looks that way." "Has it occurred to anyone that this thing may have been laying around that planet for, oh, quite some time, and that maybe it's broken?" "Or perhaps it never worked right in the first place?" " Should we shut her down?" " I don't know." "Let's ask the man who just had his head cracked open." "She didn't mean to hurt me." "She didn't like what I said." "I don't like most of what you say." "I try to resist the urge to shove you through a wall." "Somehow Reese managed to survive a massive attack from replicators." "There has to be more that we can learn from her, sir." "Finally!" "Do you forgive me?" "You know I didn't mean to hurt you, right?" " I know." " Good." " I forgive you, too." " What?" " What?" " For attacking me." "I didn't attack you, Reese." " It doesn't matter." "Let's forget it." " No, we should talk about this." "No, please, Daniel." "I'm so bored." "I just wanna get out of here." "I wanna see your world." "Why are you all so afraid of me?" " No one's afraid of you." " I won't do anything bad, I promise." "I know." " I made you something." " Yeah?" "Remember you said you wished you could have more fun?" "Yeah." "Don't be afraid." "It's just a toy." "(Carter) That glass is acid-resistant, but it hasn't been tested against replicator spray." "Why are we keeping this thing, anyway?" "We know what they can do." " She made it." "She can control it." " Yes, but how did she make it?" "Well, I think I have a pretty good idea." "Nanotechnology." "The nanobots that she uses for self-repair are apparently able to reorder matter on a microscopic level." "She understands their construction completely." "She should know how to defeat them." " Will she tell us?" " That's the problem." "What?" " She's not talking." " We make her talk." "I think she was offended because I didn't appreciate her present." "This is so far beyond my understanding." "I recommend that we contact the Asgard." "Maybe they can help." "Agreed." "I'll send SG-2 to try and make contact." "In the meantime, see what else you can learn." "Yes, sir." "Reese, we need to talk." "(O'Neill) Tell us what you know about the replicators." " (Reese) Replicators?" " Yeah." "(O'Neill) It's what we call them because that's what they do." "It's just a toy." "It won't hurt you." "A toy?" "There are millions of those things floating around in space, destroying everything they touch." " I don't know what you mean." " They destroyed your planet." "And don't tell me you don't remember because I think you do." "No, you wanna destroy me!" " Easy." " No one wants to hurt you." "Tell us what happened." "It wasn't my fault." "The people on my planet were afraid." "They wanted to destroy my toys." "They wanted to destroy me." "They said that my father made me wrong." "They thought that I was bad." "What did you do?" "I taught my toys to make more of themselves." "And I..." "I..." "I taught them to defend themselves... and me..." " In case anyone ever tried to destroy us." " Well, you taught them well." "When your toys attacked your world, why didn't you stop them?" "I tried, but I couldn't." "They wouldn't listen to me any more." "Why did you go to sleep?" "They killed everyone." "They killed my father." "And then they went away." "I was alone." "I was sad." "You don't like me any more." "You think I'm bad." "Actually, we want you to help us." "The replicators are a problem for a lot of worlds." " We need to know how to stop them." " You want to destroy them." " Yes." " They're bad." "They have to be stopped." " You want to destroy me!" " No." "Yes, you do!" "You think that my father made me wrong." "You hate me!" "SG-2 has been unable to contact the Asgard from the Katal hall of wisdom." " Nothing?" " I hope they're OK." "It would be unfortunate if the Asgard lost to the replicators at a time when we may have the key to stopping them in our midst." "I wouldn't count the little fellers out just yet." "Sir, this robot is far beyond our understanding." "We may be able to fight the replicators, but without the Asgard's help" "I don't think we'll figure out how to use Reese to defeat them on a grand scale." " The robot's unwilling to cooperate?" " Completely clammed up, sir." "She thinks we don't like her." "Her impression is her people thought she was poorly constructed and wanted her and her toys eliminated." "Which would make them far smarter than we are." "Whoever made Reese made a critical error." "He made her smart enough to build the replicators and yet emotionally immature." "She's just defending herself." "She's a kid who unwittingly taught her toys to become a weapon of destruction." "Maybe." "She's been lying to us from the start." "Major, it sounds to me like we're over our heads here." "Until we successfully contact the Asgard, I am ordering you to shut the robot down." " Well, that's not gonna be pretty." " Do whatever's necessary." "The cameras in Isolation Room One are offline, and I can't get them back." "We got it." "The cameras are down." "(mechanism jamming)" "They're in here!" " (yelling) - (gunfire)" "(screaming)" "(alarm)" " They're alive." "A medical team's coming." " Where is she?" "The door was open and the prisoner was gone when I arrived, sir." "Replicators." "O'Neill for Hammond." "Yes, sir, we may have a replicator situation down here." "I suggest sealing the base and doing a clean sweep." "Yes, sir." "And we also have a robot on the loose." "Sir, we have to preserve her in one piece." "And we'd like it in one piece, if possible." "Yes, sir." "How did this happen?" "The room is clear of any substance that may be used to create another replicator." "She must have made enough blocks for two of them the first time." "There could be hundreds by now." "They've breached the power system, sir." "Initiating computer lockdown." "Will it stop a replicator from accessing the dialling computer?" "I doubt it, sir, but it might buy us a little time." "(woman) Major Carter, security has been breached on level 28." "Replicators are heading to the control room." "Roger that." "Suggest retreating until backup arrives, sir." " (door closing)" " Sir." "She's sealed in the gate room." "She's got a lot of replicators with her." " She's probably trying to go home." " Let's let her." " Sir, we can't just let her leave." " We'll tell the Asgard where she is." "I'm guessing." "If she thinks we'll destroy her she could be going anywhere." "We can't let her go." "She lost control of the replicators once." "It can happen again." "So we'll toss a nuke in behind her." "I'd like to try and stop her first." "How?" " Maybe get her trust back." " Then what?" "Then... then I don't know." "I'm just making this up as I go." "If you could get close enough to her, you might be able to remove her power chip." " What of the replicators?" " These aren't the ones we're used to." "She's controlling them." "If Daniel can shut her down, they might cease to operate." "They exist to protect Reese." "If she's eliminated, they have no protocol upon which to act." "They may attack Daniel Jackson to restore their leader's power." "That's where you guys'll come in." "I'm willing to give you a chance, Dr Jackson." "General, with all due respect, I think it's a bad idea." "I hope not, Colonel." "Reese, please let me in." "I just want to talk to you." " Activate the Stargate." " No." "No, I don't want you to go." "You hate me." "No, I don't." "No one does." "They're afraid of me." " They don't understand you, Reese." " I never meant to hurt anyone." "I know." " Please stay." " It's too late now." "I've accessed your computer system." "I'll figure it out for myself." "Reese, I don't want you to go." "Why not?" "I wanna be your friend." " I've never had a friend." " I'll be your friend." "Your toys may be a lot of fun, but... they're not human like us." "They protect me." "I'll protect you." " Do you promise?" " I promise." "No one will hurt you." "Come on." "Show you my world?" " Really?" " Yeah." " Argh!" " You're trying to deceive me." " No!" " Yes." "You're lying." "Lying is bad!" "None of you will ever hurt me!" "Daniel's in trouble." "Replicators have left the gate room." "Not sure where they went." "Yeah, roger that." "We're going in." "Major, I won't let the replicators escape this base." "We have to set the self-destruct." "The replicators have taken over the main computer, sir." "We'll have to cut the system access and set the device locally." "Reese, please listen to me." "No!" "Make them stop!" "On a three count." "Three, two, one!" "Clear." "Sir, we're getting ready to set the self-destruct." "I can't hear you!" "On my mark." "Three, two, one, turn!" "Sir, we've set the self-destruct." "You have under five minutes to override." "Copy?" "Roger that!" "Thank you." "Sir!" " Make them stop!" " I can't." "You can." "No." "You'll kill me!" "No." "We just don't want you to destroy our world like you destroyed yours." " I didn't do it!" " You did!" "You created the replicators." "You told them to replicate." "They destroyed your world, and you let them." "It wasn't my fault." "You could have stopped them before there were too many." "You could stop them now before you lose control." "No!" "Cease fire!" " What's it doing?" " It's like it doesn't know what to do." "Reese, your father made you wrong!" " No!" " Yes!" "You destroyed your world." " I didn't mean to." " I know." "But now you're gonna destroy mine, too." "I don't want to." "I know." "That's why you have to stop now." "No one will hurt you." "We may be able to fix you." "How?" "Just shut off your toys." "Go to sleep." "We'll find a way." "I don't believe you." "Colonel, I think Reese is losing control." "A replicator has started to act on its own." "I will wake you up myself." "I promise." "I'm your friend." "I don't want you to die." "I don't want you to die either." "O'Neill!" "(Carter) What's happening in there?" "The replicators appear to have been disabled." "Robot has been neutralised." "(countdown)" "Abort the self-destruct." "You stupid son of a bitch." "Hey." "You're welcome." " You didn't have to shoot her." " Yes, I did." "She was shutting them down." "I had no way of knowing that." "Neither did you." "They didn't stop because you shot her." "They stopped because she told them to." "Carter said she was losing control." "If just one of those damn things got out of this base, we would be royally screwed!" "You just killed the only chance we'll ever have of stopping them." "Look..." "I'm sorry." "But this is the way it had to go down, and you know it." "All units, this is SG-1 niner." "Commence sweep." "I want every one of those damn things outta here."
