Following the amazing “Exodus” episode, season five begins with “Enemies”. SG-1 lost Teal’c in the clutches of Apophis. The rest of the team along with Jacob find themselves in an unknown part of the galaxy aboard the mothership they stole from Cronus. They are about to engage in battle against Apophis, but in the last moment a third spacecraft appears, firing at their foe. SG-1 uses this moment to escape, but due to the amount of damage it received earlier it is not operating at the fullest of its abilities. Later, the mothership of Apophis comes after SG-1, but there is no life detected on board. Seeing as though their ship sustained much damage to its control crystals, SG-1 decides to board to Apophis’ ship and steal the crystals. Much to their horror they find a lot of dead Jaffa on board and an activated self-destruct mechanism, all thanks to an infestation of the most feared foe from the past, the Replicator insects, which most likely came from the third spacecraft.

Season 5, Episode 2: Threshold

SG-1 successfully escaped from Apophis, along with the body of Teal’c, but their friend still has devotion for his Goa’uld lord entrenched in his mind. “Threshold” begins with Dr. McKenzie bringing Hammond and O’Neil into Teal’c’s room, showing to them that his mind is once again clear and that he is ready to pledge allegiance to Earth. It is only after Teal’c comes face to face with Bra’tac that it becomes apparent that he is deceiving the SGC and is still loyal to Apophis. Bra’tac realizes that it will be a long and painful road to free him, but that there is a way through a Jaffa ritual named M’al Sharran. He removes Teal’c’s symbiote and brings him on the verge of death so that the events which forged Teal’c wash across his mind like a wave. Only then will he choose the right path to follow. The only drawback of this ritual is that no one ever survived it, but Bra’tac believes in his old apprentice.

Season 5, Episode 3: Ascension

The opening scene of “Ascension” is quite breathtaking, as we see a vast city which lies in ruins. SG-1 arrived to investigate and they discover some kind of a device that Samantha thinks is a weapon of formidable power. Teal’c and Jack secure the area, leaving Daniel and Samantha to further investigate. Samantha senses that there is something in the room with her and Daniel later discovers her unconscious next to the weapon. The team returns to the SGC and Samantha is immediately sent to the infirmary. Luckily, it seems that she is just exhausted, so Dr. Fraiser recommends some time off. Samantha continues to be haunted by the unseen being at her home, but soon enough the creature takes human form. It calls itself Orlin and it says that it followed her through the Stargate while being cloaked. She quickly alarms SGC and a team is sent to investigate, but they find nothing that could indicate that anyone has been at her house. Teal’c is the first to think that Samantha is suffering from something more than just plain exhaustion.

SG-1 is off-world and under heavy attack by Jaffa troops, rushing to get back to the Stargate. Only Carter, Teal’c and Jackson manage to get through, reporting to General Hammond that O’Neil went back to help the wounded Lieutenant Tyler. Hammond is unaware of who this Tyler is, but Carter and Jackson explain that he is the new member of SG-1 and has been since for almost a month, this being their third mission together as a team. Confused, Hammond denies these claims and orders the team members to go to the infirmary. Dr. Fraiser couldn’t find anything wrong with SG-1, but Hammond believes that they may have been influenced by some kind of alien technology and decides to keep them in quarantine until further notice. Back on the alien world, O’Neil and Tyler battle for survival against the Jaffa troops. But a threat of similar power arises at the SGC, when Colonel Simmons from the Pentagon uses the weakened SG-1 to expose it as a threat to national security and ruin the “Stargate” program.

SG1 Red Sky

Season 5, Episode 5: Red Sky

The SG-1 team experiences a rather rough ride through the Stargate while on route to a world named K’Tau. They meet the natives, a peaceful civilization which worship Old Norse gods and are happy when they hear that the team knows of Thor. The team is welcomed by Elrad, who is the religious leader of the people. He believes the team to be elves sent by Freyr, but another acolyte of the church named Malchus sees SG-1 as harbingers of doom. A rather weird global phenomenon confirms the claims of Malchus, since the sunlight becomes red, which is considered to be a sign from the Gods. Samantha investigates a bit and discovers that the wormhole through which they came caused the solar reaction, changing the light frequency toward infrared end of the color spectrum. This means that all plant life could die and that the SG-1 will be completely responsible for the disaster. Jack asks the Asgard for help, but they do not wish to be involved in the problem and it falls into the hands of SG-1 alone.

She is quickly rushed to the SGC and Dr. Fraiser finds a virus in her blood which is somehow allowing her body to generate an electromagnetic field.

If you remember the events of the episode “The First Ones” you should be fairly familiar with what is going on here. Daniel befriended the Unas Chaka and has placed several cameras on the planet to study their ways. “Beast of Burden” begins with watching some of the footage and seeing that several men with Goa’uld weapons captured Chaka. He shows the video to General Hammond and the rest of SG-1, explaining that he would like to go there and investigate, since the footage shows that the men have no Goa’uld markings, but they do have their weapons. Hammond gives a go on the mission and the team goes through the gate to the world of the unknown men. They find a pre-industrial civilization that uses Unas as slaves. One of the power figures in the town is a leading slave trader named Burrock. Daniel tells him that he demands Chaka, but he refuses instantly, realizing that the only way to save him is through escape. This actually brings SG-1 in danger and it puts the slave system in peril.

SG-1 is off-world exploring the ruins of an ancient ziggurat, trying to find an entrance. While they are waiting for Daniel to figure out the language, Samantha finds a pack of Russian cigarettes. Back at the SGC, they discover that there is a group of the Russian Army Intelligence had used the Stargate and went off-world, never actually returning. General Hammond allows one Russian team to follow SG-1 back to the planet for a rescue mission to find the missing team. Not only is the very operation strange, but there is instantly an amount of tension between O’Neil and Colonel Zukhov, who isn’t quite used to taking orders from anyone, let alone from Americans. In any case, once the teams get inside the ziggurat, they become trapped in what seems to be a tomb of a Goa’uld ruler. They also find the remains of the missing Russian team, the bodies showing that they were killed by an alien creature.

SG-1 once again goes back the planet Tollana, but this time with a rather sad occasion. They have come to the funeral of an old “friend” Chancellor Omoc. The whole event becomes quite surprising, since the death of Omoc carries with itself the reversal of Tollan government’s policy against sharing their technology. The Tollans wish to trade weaponry with SGC and they wish Jack to be the representative and negotiator on behalf of planet Earth. Before SG-1 heads back home, Narim secretly gives Samantha an object. Back at the SGC, Samantha activates it and it projects a holographic image of Narim, who speaks of a warning that the Earth is in danger. Upon hearing this, General Hammond gives a green light for the team to return to Tollana and further investigate the matter.

SG-1 comes back to the SGC from an off-world mission, proud and successful. They report to General Hammond that they managed to meet an alien race which is willing to form an alliance with our planet, as well as with the ability to protect the Earth from the Goa’uld and a technology that can extend human life in medical terms. Further discussion with Hammond reveals that the aliens call themselves the Aschen, which we already met in the episode “2010”. Hammond is unaware of the connection between the Aschen and the SG-1’s warning from the future, so the General orders the government envoy Joe and Carter to continue with the negotiations. As it was revealed in “2010”, Jack is suspicious of the Aschen due to their lack of humor, a statement easily dismissed by Hammond. SG-1 travels back off-world to meet with the aliens, where they find their real motives.
