They sat in the surveillance van, their focus on the screens in front of them. There was Daniel, lying in his bed. "Hey, Daniel, you asleep yet?"
"Yes, Jack, I'm fast asleep." He said, his eyes closed.
A few minutes later, after Daniel really did fall asleep, Osiris beamed into his room. Sam turned on the device. Meanwhile, Jack turned to his wife. "I want you to stay here."
"Jack…"
"Teal'c and I can handle the inside, and we need someone to keep an eye on the surveillance."
"Just because I can't go through the Gate…"
He pressed his right index finger to her lips, indicating silence as he and Teal'c got out of the van.
"I love you." She whispered.
"Me too."
She sat, studying the surveillance footage. She watched as Jack and Teal'c positioned themselves to capture the goa'uld.
The hours ticked by slowly. "Carter?" Jack whispered.
"She's still there, sir."
Suddenly, Daniel awoke and Osiris raised her hand to activate the wrist device. "Go!" She said into her headset.
Jack and Teal'c hurried into Daniel's room as Osiris got out the sliding doors in his room. They found their friend sitting on his bed, clutching his head. "Daniel, you okay?"
"I'm fine!" He said, gritting his teeth against the pain. "Get her!"
Sam got the small pistol that Jack had handed her before getting into the surveillance van, and got out of the van. She used the van for cover as she looked for signs of the goa'uld. Suddenly, she saw Osiris. She cocked and aimed the gun at Osiris only to have her bullets deflected by the personal shield that Osiris activated.
The women glared at one another before Osiris got an idea by seeing the van's gas tank. She targeted it and the last thing Sam could remember was instinctually flattening against the grass as the van burst into flames.
As Osiris watched with satisfaction the "demise" of Samantha Carter, she felt the prick of a needle. She turned to find the cold eyes of Jack O'Neill staring at her, a tranquilizer gun in his hands. She collapsed and as she did so, Jack saw the smoldering van. "No!" He whispered, as fear engulfed him.
It was then that he noticed Sam's unconscious figure lying a few feet from the van. "Teal'c you take care of the goa'uld!" He said, running past her across the street to where Sam lay.
He rolled her over and saw the trickle of blood coming from where Sam bit her tongue on her way down.
"Get Daniel to call an ambulance! Carter's been hurt!"
