Next scene- they are still in the pub. Sam and Teal'c are sat at a table talking while O'Neill and Daniel are the other side of the pub communicating with Hammond through the SG teams at the gate.
Carter: So what's the situation with the Goa'uld?
Teal'c: As the Goa'uld have not attacked his planet General Hammond has decided that all SG teams proceed with their missions.
Carter: That's quite quick.
Teal'c: General Hammond did not want to take this matter lightly. However, he was overruled and his superiors have ordered that we continue to advance in our missions.
Carter: Starting when?
Teal'c: Tomorrow.
Carter: Aren't we due to go to P3X 662 pretty soon?
Teal'c: We are due to go in two days. Tomorrow SG11 are going to P8Y 271 and SG2 are going to P9X 784. (O'Neill and Daniel come over and take a seat.)
O'Neill: (To Sam) Hammond wants us to sort this... diplomatically. We need to know the exact situation so we can get you out and go home.
Carter: I already told you sir.
Daniel: No Sam, you told us that he tricked you into marrying him when you were tired, that's not enough. I need to know details. I also would like to know what the-um- justice system here is like.
Carter: I don't know Daniel, I have brought it up but Kyran dismissed it.
O'Neill: Teal'c, why don't you and I have a look around, see if we find out anything? (He stands up and so does Teal'c)
Daniel: What are you looking for?
O'Neill: You'll find out when I find it. C'mon Teal'c. (O'Neill and Carter make eye contact, its a sad look from him but she forces a small smile and he looks down, him and Teal'c walk off.)
Daniel: (softly) Are you okay?
Carter: Yeah Daniel I'm fine.
Daniel: It was a surprise to find you like this you know. We- Jack- what happened Sam?
Carter: (gives an annoyed smile) It slightly reminds me of P3X 595, remember how they treated women? I mean I was sold. We weren't allowed to speak in public- I mean in the end it was okay but it was pretty rough and well this planet is more advanced than the Shavadai but the principles are the same. But I wont stand for it Daniel. I won't be silenced, monitored and controlled just because I'm a woman. I didn't intend on marrying Kyran, I just need to get out.
Daniel: We'll get you out. Jack and Teal'c and SG3 are working on it as we speak.
Carter: Yeah I know-
Daniel: He cares you know. He has a strange way of showing it.
Carter: What?
Daniel: You know what. His hands were screwed up into fists during that meeting with Kyran. I don't know whether he realised it or not. He doesn't like the fact he couldn't take you back home just by ordering you to, that's why he left with Teal'c. I know you're not going to openly say what happened between you and Kyran, but you can say it to us, any of us. Whenever you're ready we're here to listen, but in the meantime we're just here for you.
Carter: Thank you Daniel.
Scene change- Daniel, Carter and two members of SG3 are all stood outside on a pebbled pathway about 100m away from the the village square that the pub is in. O'Neill and Teal'c are about another 100m away from them in a field communicating with Hammond through the radio. O'Neill is annoyed.
O'Neill: With all due respect sir-
Hammond: Colonel! I am ordering you and your team to return back to the SGC. I want to be properly briefed on the whole situation as as Dr Jackson says, we need a diplomatic response to getting Major Carter out of this.
O'Neill: Sir, we aren't even properly briefed on the whole situation. I don't see why Carter-
Hammond: Colonel, I am just as unhappy with the situation as you are. But we, you cannot force her to return back to you because the last thing we need is another enemy to deal with at the moment!
O'Neill: I understand that. I'm just looking out for Carter's well-being… (calmer) She's pretty roughed up sir.
Hammond: What do you mean?
O'Neill: I mean that Carter has cuts, bruises and God knows what else, we can't just leave her here.
Hammond: Yes, we have discussed her injuries, but Jack, we are going to launch a rescue, once we know what to do. For now I want SG3, you, Teal'c and Dr Jackson to return through the stargate as soon as possible is that clear? (O'Neill looks around annoyed and sighs)
O'Neill: Yes sir. O'Neill out. (communications stop, him and Teal'c exchange a sad look and they walk towards Daniel and Carter. Daniel and Carter walk to towards them Daniel is about two steps ahead. Teal'c and O'Neill come to a stop)
Daniel: What did he say?
O'Neill: He wants us back for a debriefing.
Daniel: (surprised, comes to a stop as they are face to face now) what?
Teal'c: General Hammond requests we return back to Earth to enlighten him on the current situation and then to proceed in a diplomatic response in order to free Major Carter from this situation. (Carter has now reached them too, she is subtly holding her hip to support herself. O'Neill is watching Carter knowing she's in pain)
Daniel: So what are we doing about Sam? (O'Neill looks guilty and is about to respond but she speaks first)
Carter: I lasted a few days here fine. You guys can go.
O'Neill: Carter-
Carter: Sir. (she tries to sound diplomatic) The sooner you go, the quicker you can get back and get me out of this place.
Daniel: Did you tell him about- well I don't know we're all acting like it didn't happen-
O'Neill: We did speak about it. (looks at Carter) He said he'd send whatever medical supplies you need. (she thanks him by a nod, Jack reached for his radio) Wade come in.
Wade: I'm listening.
O'Neill: We're heading out now, I need you and the rest of your team packed up and ready to go.
Wade: Understood. (end radio communication)
Daniel: Jack, we can't go
O'Neill: Daniel stop it.
Daniel: No Jack-
O'Neill: Oh for the love of God Daniel! You think I want to leave Carter here? You think Teal'c does? Heck, do you think that this was an easy decision for Hammond to make? No. But the fact is he's annoyingly right and it's all because you'd prefer a diplomatic response. If I had it my way we'd just kidnap Carter or something. (Daniel goes to open his mouth in a response) Ah,ah,ah,ah (O'Neill points hectically at him as in to say no) Now you go with Teal'c, I'll follow. (They all look at each other for a few seconds, Daniel reluctantly shoves past Jack and Teal'c follows.) Sorry about that Carter.
Carter: (a little embarrassed) It's fine sir.
O'Neill: What do you need?
Carter: Probably just an aspirin- got a headache. (she gives a small smile, he squints at her injuries)
O'Neill: What else?
Carter: Nothing, I'm fine. Honestly, (she lies) it's nothing I can't deal with.
O'Neill: Once we get you back Frasier is going to have to fully examine you. Hammond is going to read the report, and I can too. As your (cringes at what he's about to say) commanding officer, (breathes and looks around then back at her) Carter. I just want to make sure you're okay, and I'd quite like to know what's been going on here exactly.
Carter: The truth is I don't know what has been going on. It all escalated from nowhere, I fight it. It's just sometimes I get too tired to.
O'Neill: He's not worth shit Carter, you know that right?
Carter: It's just, because I have been alone, it's like I rely on him?
O'Neill: You're smart and you're a fighter. You don't need to rely on anybody, if anything people rely on you, we, I rely on you. We will come back and get you out of this all alright, you just have to… hang in there. (she looked at him and could see how much he really didn't want to leave)
Carter: I know, and I will. (he nods in acknowledgment)
O'Neill: He's going to pay for this you know. (her eyes water a little and she looks down, his radio goes off with Wade asking where he is) Well, I'll catch you up in a bit. Stay out of trouble (he smirks, and she smiles back, he turns to walk off and she calls him back)
Carter: Sir? (he turns around) Back to your earlier question… anti-septic and aspirin. Thank you.
O'Neill: You got it Carter. (they nod at each other and she watches him as he walks ahead. He briefly turns back and gives her a longing look, he subtly shakes his head and continues down the path that will lead him back to the gate)
Scene change- SG1 and SG3 in an end of a briefing with Hammond. It's getting heated due to disagreements of how to get Carter out.
Daniel: No, the fact is she is stuck living in a society that demoralises women and-
O'Neill: For crying out loud Daniel! He beat her. (everyone turns dead silent and stares at O'Neill, he's angry) Now I really don't like that as I know you don't but-
Daniel: But what? She's been 'trained to withstand this sort of situation'?
O'Neill: You're the one who wants to make friends with the people doing this!
Daniel: No Jack, going in there and forcing her out is just not the way to do it.
O'Neill: It's not forcing it Daniel, she belongs here with us.
Hammond: Enough! (Daniel and Jack look at each other extremely annoyed) Colonel O'Neill, do you have anything else to add to the situation?
O'Neill: No sir.
Hammond: Then we will have to negotiate this matter with them.
Teal'c: Major Carter is a great warrior, we will return her home, that I am sure of.
Hammond: I agree Teal'c. Now did you find out anything that we can use?
Wade: No, the town government was closed for some meal thing- I'm not exactly sure sir. Everyone else was either running a stool or picking at their fields.
Daniel: We could trade.
Hammond: Trade what?
Daniel: Well Colonel Wade just said how a lot of people were picking at their fields, we could provide means to make agriculture easier in order to get Sam back.
Hammond: Great, so you will make contact with whatever government they have and offer a trade.
O'Neill: (annoyed at how Carter's worth is being compared to machines) What so Carter for a few tractors?
Wade: What about Kyran. He's the problem here. We're lucky we caught Major Carter off-guard. I'm pretty sure he's going to keep a closer watch over her now.
O'Neill: Well Kyran will have to cop without.
Daniel: If we negotiate with his superiors then surely he will have no choice and- ('off-world activation', 'General Hammond to the control room' Siler repeats)
Hammond: We will resume this. (They all get up and go to the control room to find SG11 coming through covered in blood and limping on another, one team member is missing. They run down to the embarkation room)
Hammond: Colonel, what happened?
Colonel Edwards: The Goa'uld sir. We didn't see them coming.
Hammond: That's okay Colonel, we need to get you and your team to the infirmary. Where is Lieutenant Ritter?
Edwards: (pauses) He didn't make it sir. (the medical team enter the gate-room as escort SG11 out of it. SG1 and 3 all look at each other shocked)
Hammond: (turns to them very unhappy and pissed off) Briefing room, NOW.
