"Turn on the probe," demanded Major Carter.
"What for?" asked Jackson.
"The video pictures it takes go right back to the base. We can let them know we're stranded."
"Right," said Jackson as he turned on the probe. He looked at it for a while and then spoke into the speaker.
"Uh... ..hello?" he said. A crackling followed and a voice came over the speaker.
"Jackson, is that you?" It was General Hammond.
"General," said Jackson, "We're stranded. There is no dial-home-device." The General was silent for a moment.
"What can we do for you?" asked Hammond.
"Well for starters," said Carter, "Get Colonel O'Neil on this thing. Maybe he can help us formalize a plan.
"Colonel O'Neil asked not to be involved with this in any way." said Hammond.
"Yes, we know," said Jackson, "But could you get him anyway?" There was a pause.
"Please wait one minute." After quite a while, another voice was heard on the speaker.
"Carter? Jackson?" It was Colonel O'Neil.
"Yes, its us," said Jackson, "We seem to be stranded because there's no-"
"Yes," interrupted O'Neil, "General Hammond told me the story."
"Well do you have any ideas?" asked Carter.
"Weeelll..." said O'Neil, "You know that alien from 636 that visited you?"
"Yes, I know him," said Carter, "That was only last week."
"You know that Stargate thing and a dialing computer he built? We could send that through the Stargate."
"It wouldn't be of any help," said Carter, "The core burned out."
"Then we could send you a new one through the Stargate." The General's voice came through again.
"Sending a core through the Stargate is not safe," said Hammond.
"Well," said Carter to Hammond, "We can either die here alone or die with an explosion. Things can't get worse. Why don't you just try it?"
"Because," said the General, "It's not just dangerous to you, but to the base also. I won't allow it." Jackson and Carter sighed.
"What'll we do, then?" asked Jackson, "How are we going to get out of here?" General Hammond answered.
"Already I have a team working on ideas for your escape. After you return, if you... ..uh... ...ever do, We will lock the coordinates out of the dialing computer. For now, we will send you provisions." Two minutes later, a crate with dried food and 5 gallons of water came through the gate.

Meanwhile, Teal'c, back in his room, was reminiscing. He did know that place, but couldn't quite remember what it was.

"Jackson, Carter, are you there?" came Hammond's voice from the speaker.
"Yes, we're still here. Where would we go?" answered Jackson, with his mouth full of jerky.
"We're sending a Tok' ra ship to 637. They'll use ring transporters if you give them your coordinates.
"Great idea!" shouted Carter, "We'll find them out immediately." She took her coordinate finder out of her pocket and pressed the "START" button on the left hand side. She waited
for a few minutes, but no coordinates came up on the screen.
"Uh, sir," said Carter into the speaker, "We can't find our coordinates. I'm suspecting that whatever this room is made out of, is stopping our radio waves."
"That's impossible!" shouted Hammond, "Even the strongest alloys can't hold our radio waves from escaping!"
"We know that sir," replied Carter, "But maybe... ...maybe this isn't metal." She touched the wall. It definitely wasn't metal.
