"McKAY:" "Previously on Stargate Atlantis." "Colonel Ellis, you made excellent time on your first voyage here." "The Replicators know the location of Earth, and with these new ships, have the means to get there." "So, you're going to blow up their ships." "Oberoth." "We had no choice but to attack you." "You were building warships." "They needed to be neutralized." "And now, so do you." "No matter where we try to hide on this planet, the Replicator satellite will be able to track us." "McKAY:" "We submerge the city." "The water attenuates the satellite's beam intensity, buys us some more shield time." "The water has no effect?" "It's having an affect, but just nowhere near what we want it to." "You want to bring an asteroid towards us?" "Is that wise?" "Atlantis is leaving this planet." "We're not flying high enough." "We don't have enough power." "Lower the shield." "McKAY:" "The hyperdrive just shut down." "We are lost." "We dropped out of hyperspace way too soon." "I have no idea where we are." "She's unresponsive and her pupils are sluggish." "I need you to prep the OR and have the scanner ready when we get there." "We're on it." "The scanner is moving into position." "She's crashing." "Let's go, guys." "I don't want to do this in the hall." "Here we go, here we go." "You got city-wide sensors back online?" "Hopefully, yeah." "Slowly booting up right now." "Can we contact the Apollo?" " Not yet, no." "Why not?" "Because subspace communications are down." "Don't worry, I've got Chuck working on it." "Well, maybe you should be working on it." "I've got bigger fish to fry." "What could be more important than contacting the Apollo?" "This can't be right." "What's wrong?" "Power." "We're losing massive amounts of power." "Just pull it out." " I can't do that." " Why not?" "We have to wait to get you under the scanner, make sure pulling it out's not going to cause even more damage." "Pull it out." "Yeah, yeah, I get it, you're a tough guy." "If you want to pull it out, go ahead, but I'm not going to..." "Are you crazy?" "On three, ready?" "One, two, three." "Clear." "Charging." "I don't think the problem is on this end." "McKAY:" "I don't care where the problem is, I want to know what the problem is." "It's in the conduits." "Oh..." "It looks like..." "Several of the main conduits were affected by the brush with the beam." "All right, that means we'll need to, uh..." "Yes, yes, yes." "You should get the..." "Yeah, I will, as soon as I've shut down all of the..." "Yes, yes, yes, I will do the same thing." "Wait, wait, wait, what's going on here?" "Every second I waste, we're draining more power." "Just trust me, we're doing the right thing here." "No change." "Let's start her on mannitol, 200 ccs IV." "Tell me what's going on, Rodney." "Long story short, there are a bunch of systems on right now that don't need to be, and given our current situation, they're draining the life out of the city." "Can you not just shut them off?" "Yeah, just wait, uh..." "Maybe, yeah." "Okay..." "Come on." "Oh, come on." " Time?" " She's been flat for almost two minutes." "Come on, we need you here, Elizabeth." "She's going back into v-fib." "Let's hit her again." "Clear." "Here we go." "Here we go." "Let's start the scan." "Dr. Keller?" "That's not good." "Her brain is swelling quite seriously." " That would explain the sluggish pupils." " Yeah, among other things." "Give her nimodipine, 30 milligrams q4h, and keep an eye on her blood pressure." "Nothing." "The control grid's all out of whack." "I can't shut the systems down from here." "We're bleeding out." "We can shut down the systems manually, right?" " I don't think we have the time." " You would rather not try?" "Okay, you're right, you're right." "Uh..." "Zelenka?" "We need to deploy some teams." "She's not responding." "We're losing her." "I'm sending some of my men with your guys in case they need help." "Their ETA is under five minutes." " Does that give us enough time?" " I don't know." "What little power we had left is almost gone." "We'll be lucky if we can make it through the night." " Listen." " What?" "You've been making a lot of decisions without consulting me." "I'm sorry." "We're a little under the gun here." "Things move fast." "I understand that, but with Elizabeth incapacitated, I hate to say it, but, uh..." "You're in charge." "I know, I'm sorry." "Just keep me in the loop." "Okay." " Okay, well, I'll give you the Coles Notes." " The what?" " Uh, the Cliff Notes?" " Why didn't you just say that?" "Look, never mind." "Look, as we were leaving Lantea, we got grazed by the Replicator's satellite beam, right?" "It impacted the side of the tower, and from what we can tell, it wreaked havoc on a number of power conduits." " So?" "Re-route the power, then." " Yeah, it's not so easy." "Look, the ZPM room is at the base of the tower, which means that the conduits in and around where the beam hit are primary conduits, they can't be routed around." "So parts of the city don't have power?" "No, no, no, the conduits weren't severed, they were damaged." "Look, it's complicated, but imagine them as, uh," " leaky pipes, okay?" " Okay." "So you pump water through them, they leak, right?" "You dumb this down any more and you're going to get hit." "Sorry." "Look, the city realizes that, for whatever reason, power's not making it to the outer piers." "So instead of repairing the leaks, which it can't do, it increases the ZPM's output so that even though the pipes are leaky and we lose power, enough energy makes it to the end of the line." " And that's bad?" " No, that's good." "Well, otherwise, we'd lose the shields, we'd lose atmosphere, we'd all be dead." " Okay." " Look, there are a number of systems on right now that don't need to be, and they're screaming for power." "Look, we're going to lose juice, potentially a fatal amount, no matter what we do, but if we can get those nonessential systems shut down, then the ZPM will need to pump less power through the leaky pipes," "and we'll be able to put off imminent death for another hour or so." "So then, where are we at?" "Well, the teams are making good time." "Uh, we've got about 60ºº of the nonessential systems shut down, so..." "What?" "What's happening?" "The city's outer buildings are decompressing and shutting down the artificial gravity." "Why would the city do such a thing?" "It's going to collapse the shield." "It's trying to save power." "We've got guys out there." "Matthews, fall back to the tower immediately." "I don't think we're done, sir." "The city's shield's collapsing." "Move." "You heard the man." "Go, go!" "They're not going to make it." "Stop it." "Stop it from doing this." "The city doesn't think it can maintain the shield unless we make it smaller." "If we delay its collapse, it could fail completely." "I don't care." "Override it." "It's not letting me." "We're almost there." " We're going to lose those guys, McKay!" " You think I don't realize that?" "The gravity just shut down!" "Tell the other teams to hurry." "I don't want them out there any longer than they need to be." "Hey, are you getting the same data rate inconsistencies off these flash drives?" "Bill?" "Bill?" "Oh, sorry." "Oh, boy." "It's this damn weightlessness." "You know, maybe you should gate back to Earth." "I can get somebody else to help me bring the station online." "No." "I'll be fine, as soon as I can figure out how to get the gravity back on." "Uh, what were you saying about the flash drives?" "Yeah, it's just that every time I update the software, the drives..." "The Pegasus gate just activated." "This is Colonel Abe Ellis, commander of the Apollo." "Midway Station, please respond." "Colonel Ellis, this is Colonel Samantha Carter." "I am on the Midway Station." "How did the mission go?" "Well, as far as we can tell," "Atlantis successfully evaded the Replicator's beam and was able to enter hyperspace." "From what you can tell?" "Well, they're not at the predetermined rendezvous point." "Really?" "They should have beaten you there." "Actually, hey, how are you dialing us?" "M12-578 doesn't have a gate." " It's off the grid." " I jumped to the nearest gate to see if they've checked in with you." "Well, I'm sorry to say that they haven't." "That's probably not good." "No, probably not." "I'll head back, dial you again in an hour, sooner if I hear from them." " Sounds good." " Apollo out." "Hey, you should be in bed." " How's she doing?" " Her brain is swelling, drastically, more than her head can handle." "If it doesn't stop, they're going to have to perform a decompressive craniectomy." "Basically, they cut out a piece of her skull, and the brain is allowed to expand outside of her head." " Any word on how she's doing?" " She's still in the OR." "No real news yet." "Listen, I think we should collapse the shield right to the tower." "That will leave us completely exposed to space." "Yes, it will, but our power is spread so thin right now," "I don't have any extra juice to come up with the solutions to the 100 or so problems that could lead to our premature demise today." "All right, check with Zelenka." "Make sure all the science teams are accounted for." " Already done, we're ready." " All right." " Do what you need to do." " Okay, here we go." "The calcium channel blockers aren't having much effect." " What's her intracranial pressure?" " 35." "I can't let her get to 40." "Okay." "Let's prep for a decompressive craniectomy." "Pressure down to 29." "Hopefully, we'll get it under 25." "McKAY:" "Hmm." "Yeah." "All right, two bits of good news." "One, I've been able to calculate our exact location." "Does that mean we can use the gate?" "Sadly, no." "To activate the gate, we require that we stay within a fairly small area of space." "We're moving too fast to use it." "Can we use the sublights to slow down?" "Well, it would be great if they were working, but sublight and navigation are out." "You decided to put this in the good news category?" "Hey, well, at least we're not lost anymore, right?" "Number two, there is nothing wrong with our hyperdrives." "Then why did we fall out of hyperspace prematurely?" "The damaged power conduits." "We had plenty of gas in the tank, so to speak, we just couldn't get it to the engine." "Stalled out." "So if we repair the conduits, can we jump back into hyperspace?" "That's the idea, yes." "I mean, we wouldn't be able to repair them completely, not without landing and shutting down and such, but we can definitely patch them up." "Look, Zelenka and his team are working as fast as they possibly can, problem is we're still leaking a lot of power." " Even with all our reductions?" " I'm afraid so, yes." "Look, this is the minimum amount of power the city requires to execute a jump into hyperspace." "If we don't fix the power conduits inside of an hour, we'll drop below that level." "After that, we're stuck." "We'll have maybe 30 hours before the shields fail, and we all die in the vacuum of space." " You okay?" " Yeah, I'm fine." " They got all the glass out." " Good." " You need me somewhere?" " Right here getting better." "All right, well, I'm good to go." "Colonel." "She okay?" "She's alive, but she's in bad shape." "She's got six broken ribs, one of which punctured a lung." "Amazingly, she doesn't have any spinal damage, but her head got knocked around pretty good." "She's suffering from cerebral edema, which may have caused substantial brain damage." "What does that all mean?" "Well, it's too early to know for sure, but if she survives, and I got to stress the "if"," "she'll never be the same Elizabeth again." "I'm sorry." "I've got to get some things and get back in there." "We're understaffed." "Most of our team's on the Apollo." "How's it going on this end?" " Actually, you know, remarkably well." " Really?" "Yes, yes, yes." "Cannibalizing parts and crystals from secondary conduits and interfacing them with the primary ones is going very smoothly." "Yes, if we keep our current pace, we should be done well before we drop below the necessary power requirements to, you know, jump into hyperspace and meet up with the Apollo." "Well, that's fantastic." "Yes." "Yeah, I thought you'd be happy." "Happy?" "There's actually a chance we might make it through this thing." "I am ecstatic." "I am going to do a little..." "Colonel Sheppard, Dr. McKay, please report to the Control Room immediately!" "That lasted what, like, a second?" "You're going to want to look at this." " What is that?" " An asteroid belt?" " Are the sublights still offline?" " McKAY:" "Yeah." "We're going to need to expand the shield." "We don't have enough power." "How long till we get there, and how long till we get through it?" "About 10 minutes till we get there." "After that, maybe two minutes to get through." "Two minutes to get through an asteroid field?" "Well, we're not passing all the way through." "We're just going to skim the edge." "You can't even give me two minutes of full shield?" "Don't take it personally, I'd like them up as much as you would," " but we just can't afford the power." " Rodney..." "Look, Zelenka needs 45 minutes to complete the repairs to the power conduits." "If we raise the shields even for one minute, it'll eat up all his time." "We can't do it." "Okay." "How big are they?" "Well, we're in the middle of a pretty big solar system right now, and the asteroid belt's probably made up of remnants of early failed planets." "So, you know..." "Building-size and larger." "I could get in the chair, fire drones, and clear a path to travel through." "In principle, a good idea, but the chair room is outside of the shield right now, and we'd never get to it." "Look, we could, um..." "No, that's not going to work." "Uh, we could..." "How many people on the base have the Ancient gene?" "Twenty or so." "Look, no, no." "No, no, no, that is a bad idea." " You have a better idea?" " Yes." "I can." "I just..." "I need some time." "If you..." "Contact everyone on the base who has the Ancient gene, tell them to meet me up at the Jumper Bay." "Well, do it." "Which means we can't raise the shields because we don't have enough power." "If we don't clear a path through the city, it'll get ripped apart." "So, we're going to take every last Jumper we have, and we're going to clear a path through the belt by firing our drones." "Excuse me." "I've really only flown a Jumper twice, and I've never actually fired a live drone, so..." "You've done it in simulations, right?" " Well, yeah, but..." " It's basically the same thing." "If McKay can do it, you can do it." "Yes, look, about that, actually, I..." "Look, I know it's dangerous." "I know a lot of you haven't logged a lot of hours in these things, but right now, it's the only viable option we have, or, um." "Or die." "Let's get moving." "All right, I've loaded flight formation for all of you." "Stay in your designated positions, take out anything that's in your path." "You've got a full load of drones, so ammo shouldn't be a problem." "Looks like the old video game, Asteroids." "Whatever works for you." "I was terrible at Asteroids." "I think I actually scored zero once." "Then there's only one way to go, and that's up." "All right, everyone." "Let's go." "Open the Jumper Bay doors." "Come on, guys, stay in formation." "We can't afford any gaps." "Yeah, there you go." "See?" "Not so hard." "Jumpers, you should be in range in three..." "Two..." " One." " Fire at will." "Nice shooting, people." "There's too many of them and they're coming in too fast." "We're not going to get them all." "Double up, fire four apiece." "I can't control four drones at the same time." "Just concentrate." " Damn it!" " Don't worry about it." "You were right." "We can't get everything on the first pass." "Have they destroyed enough asteroids to clear a path?" "We're about to find out." "Well, now what?" "On my mark, you, Bolton, and Levine are going to break formation and head back to the city." "Take out anything that we missed." "Oh, that sounds important." "Maybe someone else should..." "Break!" "McKay, you've a big one on your left." " I see it." " Impact in 10 seconds." "What was that?" "Smaller pieces getting through." "Some of them evidently not so small." "Right now damage is confined to the outer edge of the city." "Let's hope it stays that way." "All right, we're through." "Now we're going to double back, pick up any stragglers." "That's it." "We made it." "I can't believe that actually worked." "That was amazing." "You did good, Rodney." "So Zelenka and his team should have the conduits repaired by now, so I think we're finally out of the woods." "Colonel Sheppard, Dr. McKay, please report to the Control Room immediately." "Aw, come on!" "What the hell happened?" "The hyperdrive is offline." "I thought it was good to go." "It was, but a few large pieces of rock impacted the city, and one of the control arrays was damaged." "We can't jump until we fix it." "I told you I was no good at Asteroids." "The damaged conduits are on the outer edge of the city, which, sadly, is outside of the protection of the shield." "Well, we can use the transporters to get us very close, but it will still require a space walk." " That shouldn't be too bad." " It'll be a breeze, with the exception of the micro-asteroids." "The what?" "We just came through an asteroid belt." "The big stuff's behind us, but there's still a bunch of little bullet-sized rocks out there." "Tiny rock bullets." "Great." " I'm sure you'll be fine." " Well, then why aren't you going?" "Well, because you've already worked out the details of the repair." "You know it will be a waste of time getting me up to speed." "Speaking of time, how much do we have?" "Well, once you're suited up, uh, 15 minutes?" "That's it, huh?" "Hey, if the patch-job we did on the conduits hadn't slowed down the power loss, we'd have hit the deadline already." "You can do this." "Right." "McKay!" "I've been trying to reach you." "Well, you know, trying to save the city and whatnot." "Look, how's Elizabeth?" "That's what I want to talk to you about." "She's really bad." "In fact, she's so far gone, I don't think there's anything my team and I can do to heal her." "Oh, my God." "Are you sure?" "I've exhausted every medical possibility I can think of, and none of it's worked." "She..." "She's going to die?" "Well, I do have one more idea, but I need your help." "Me?" "What do you need me for?" " See those?" " What are they?" "Remember when Dr. Weir was attacked by that Replicator," " and he infected her..." " Nanites." "Carson was able to render them inert using an electromagnetic pulse." "But they're still in her system." "You're a genius." "Well, you know, trying to save a life and whatnot." "You want to what?" "Reactivate Weir's nanites." "That is a terrible, terrible idea." "What?" "I'd reprogram them." " No." " John, we are losing her here." "Keller and her team have done everything they can." "If I can reprogram the nanites to help repair her body without trying to take over her brain, then..." "Well, that's a big "if", isn't it?" "I'm fairly confident I can reprogram them to do only what we want." ""Fairly confident"?" "What if they come back online and start communicating with the other Replicators?" "The last thing we need right now is a bunch of robot warships showing up." "Are you listening?" "Look, I said I can reprogram them to be completely harmless." "I am not having this conversation until you're sure." "I want to save Elizabeth as much as anyone, but she wouldn't want us risking the city, not even for her." "That was the right call, by the way." "Yeah, let's hope so." " Any word from the Apollo?" " No, not yet." "Uh..." "What you working on?" "I'm actually trying to figure out a way to find or contact Atlantis." "Well, they've obviously veered off course, right?" "Like, when was the last time Atlantis' hyperdrives were used?" "Like, a million years ago?" "I mean, who knows what that kind of inactivity could have done to them." "I think it's more likely that they jumped out of hyperspace too soon." "They were only flying with one ZPM." "Maybe McKay underestimated the power requirements." "McKay?" "Uh..." "Either way, I know how to find them." " Really?" " Yeah, we do an AGB." "An all-Gates bulletin." "It's like an all points bulletin, only with stargates." " Oh, come on." " No, no, really." "We'll create a program, we'll dial all the gates in the Pegasus Galaxy at once, then we'll try to establish radio contact with Atlantis." "But the Atlantis gate is off the grid." "Right, but if they're close to another gate..." "Then they would have contacted us by now." "Yeah." "So, uh..." "So what have you come up with then?" "Well, nothing yet, but..." "Well, at least I am trying." "I'm generating ideas here." "I..." "Sorry." "I'm actually surprised." "The damage in this area seems to be quite minimal." "I beg to differ." "Oh, my." "Let me guess." "The array is over there." "I'm afraid so." "Great." "What the hell was that?" "Micro-asteroid." "Right." "All right." "Looks like we're going to have to jump." "But I can't jump 100 feet." "Hey, we're in space, remember?" "It's not that far a distance." "Look, I'm going to hook you up with this tether, okay?" "Then I'm going to demagnetize your boots." " Then I'm going to throw you." " Wait, what?" "What?" "Then I'm going to demag my boots before the tether catches." "Your inertia should pull both of us over the hole and onto the hallway." " It'll be a cinch." " But what if you miss?" "You're just going to have to trust me, Doc." "Trust me as far as I can throw you, actually." " Very funny." " All right, let's do this." "That was..." "Was unbelievable." " Let's get to work." " All right." "How's it going?" "Slowly." "Have you found a way to reactivate the nanites safely?" "Short story, yes." "Long story, no." " What?" " I'm 100ºº certain that" "I can reactivate the nanites and have them help put Elizabeth back together." " Okay." " The problem is, that they would do it by replacing her damaged cells with replicated nanites." "Which means the moment I tell them to turn inert again..." "Those cells would stop functioning and she'd die." "Yeah." "Well, the good news is, I've been able to program them in such a way that they would never harm her, I'm sure of that." "Plus, I've shut down their ability to contact the Replicators via subspace, so both she and we would be safe, but she'd be part Replicator for the rest of her life." "Yeah, Sheppard's not going to go for that." "There's a slight possibility I might be able to make them help repair her organic cells, and then shut down when they're done, but I'm going to need more time." "Okay, well, I'll leave you to it then." "Good luck." "Mmm, thanks." "I'm sorry." "It's taking longer than I expected." "These gloves are making the work so much slower." "Don't worry about it." "We've still got four minutes before the energy dips too low" " and we can't make the jump." " So, no pressure, then." "Radek!" "Um..." "Listen, they, uh..." "They say you can't hear me, but I just..." "I just wanted to, um..." "I just wanted to thank you." "Thanks for letting me stay here a couple of years ago." "Because I don't know if I would still be, um..." "Thank you, Dr. Weir." "What did I do?" "Nothing, it wasn't you, but you need to leave." "Hang another bag of mannitol." "You've been hit by a micro-asteroid." "Does it hurt?" " It doesn't." " You're in shock." "There's a hole in my suit." "It's okay." "I've dialed up controls to create positive pressure." "I'm calling a Jumper." "I've got to get you to the OR." "We can't leave yet." "I have to finish the repairs." " Just tell me what to do." " It's too complicated." "I'm almost finished." "Please, help me turn around." " Dr. McKay?" " What is it, Keller?" "Elizabeth is crashing." "If we're going to do this thing, we need to do it now." " I need more time." " We don't have more time." "I can't keep her blood pressure up, and if her ICP continues to climb, there's no bringing her back." "Okay, I'm transferring the program to you now." "I'm on my way." "You know, the easiest thing to do if they really did fall out of hyperspace early is to fly back over the path between M12-578 and Atlantis." "Well, that would take over a million years." "That's why we have hyperspace." "We could use the Apollo's long-range sensors." "No, no." "Those long-range sensors, they don't work in hyperspace." "I know, but we could make a little jump, look around, make another little jump, look around, and..." "Until we find them." "Yeah, that's good." "Uh, so using those sensors, conservatively, we'd have to make... 180,000 little jumps." "It'd take a few years." "Unless they seriously augment the long-range sensors." "Oh, yeah, who's going to do that?" "It's not like they have an Asgard on board." "Feel like taking a little trip to the Pegasus Galaxy?" "Just some final adjustments." "You're doing a great job, Radek." "I've called a Jumper." "There." "I'm done." "Control Room, this is Sheppard." "As soon as we get inside the shield, activate the hyperspace jump." "I'm sorry, John, but we can't." "Why not?" "Zelenka just finished repairs." "Yes, I know, but we've just dropped below the line." "We don't have enough power." "Is he going to be okay?" "I think so." "It didn't hit any major arteries." "Lucky." "I wouldn't say that." "He's still stuck here just like the rest of us." "So it's true." "Finally fixed the hyperdrive, now we don't have enough juice to go anywhere." "We've only got 28 hours before the shields fail." " So, what's the plan?" " I don't know, I got to find McKay." " He's in there." " What?" "Hey!" "I heard we didn't get the array fixed in time." "What were you doing in there?" "Look, she was dying, okay?" "Rodney." "Look, her heart was weak, her nervous system was fried." "What did you do?" " I reactivated the nanites." " Damn it, McKay!" "Look, you were busy!" "It was life or death." "If I didn't act..." "Yes, she would have died, I know!" "Okay, I know what you're thinking, but helping Elizabeth is not putting us at risk." "You just reactivated the Replicator nanites." "They're harmless." "Look, I am 100ºº certain they're not going to try to take her over, or contact the others!" "No, no, you can't know that for sure." "Yes." "Yes, I can." "Shut it down." "But..." "That would kill her." "What do you think Elizabeth would want?" "Do you think she'd want this?" "Yes, she would." "She'd sure as hell do the same for you." "Then you obviously didn't know her very well." "Well, maybe not, but you know what?" "Give it some time, you can ask her herself." "No!" "It's too dangerous." "Shut it down right now." "No." "No, I'm not going to." "Meyers." "Bring an EMP generator to the OR." "Would you please just listen to me?" "Dr. Keller!" "John." "Rodney." "What's going on?" "The quarantine is unnecessary." "Well, you'll excuse me if I wait for a second opinion." "Okay, this is stupid." " What is?" " Us fighting." "Look, I know you're not happy with me, and you may have some cause." "Anyway, it's not going to matter much if we don't figure a way out of this, right?" "Look, we have to work together, so..." "So, so I'm..." "I'm sorry." "Apology accepted." "All right." " Well, someone should talk to her." " Well, Teyla's in there." "All right." "They shouldn't have done this." "None of us wanted to lose you, Elizabeth." "And what happens if the nanites are able to contact the other Replicators?" "Rodney does not believe that is possible." "No, it's reckless." "In my opinion, it is well worth the risk." "You have no idea what I went through the last time." "Believe me, this is a very bad idea." "What the hell are you doing up here?" "Well, there's not much point sitting in the infirmary waiting to die, is there?" "All right, where do we stand?" "Well, we can pretty much forget about subspace communications." "The main control array was almost completely damaged by the beam." "I do, however, have another idea." "Let's hear it." "Well, the reason why we cannot use the power we have left to execute a short jump into hyperspace is that the city will not let us." "It's a safety protocol." "But I might be able to bypass it." " And what does that give us?" " Not much." "Well, we wouldn't be able to get to the Apollo, and we wouldn't be able to get to the nearest stargate, but we might be able to find a habitable planet within range." "I have my team running sensor sweeps right now." "He's conveniently leaving out the reason why those safety protocols are in place in the first place." "Yes, well, with insufficient power, there is a chance that the city could be ripped apart as we try to enter the hyperspace window." "What kind of chance?" "Fifty-fifty." "Well, I got to tell you, Radek, I'm not loving that idea." "Experimental Jumper." "Remember when I was zapped by that machine a few months ago, and I got..." "Well, even smarter than I normally am?" "The one that almost killed you?" "Yeah." "Yeah, well, before I was reset, I was very close to giving one of our Puddle Jumpers a hyperdrive." " Can you finish it?" " Yeah." "I mean..." "Yes, I probably can." "All right, great." "We'll make a jump to the Apollo, tell them where we are." " No." " Why no?" "The Jumper's hyperdrive would be limited." "We wouldn't be able to jump that far." "How far, then?" "What do you think, like, two?" "Yeah." "Two and change maybe?" "Conservatively, maybe 2,000 light years." "This is a list of addresses that are within range." "All right, we'll make a bunch of trips and ferry the crew to one of the planets." " Again, no." " Why not?" "Well, the drive's never been tested." "Yeah, we'd be lucky if we get two jumps." "We'll make a return trip somewhere." "Yeah, ideally, somewhere with a few ZPMs to spare." "We come back, we get Atlantis fully powered." "Yeah, that'd be great." "M7R-227." "What's that?" "Well..." " There's a planet out there with ZPMs?" " Yeah." "Yeah, we know they have a few ZPMs." "And who would that be?" "That?" "That would be the Replicator homeworld." "You feel up to a heist?"
