After the Replicators' fake Sam deliberately gets taken prisoner, so they can kill the system lords aboard and take over Goa'uld ships, assimilating their technology, Jacob Carter braves limitations imposed by the less trusting Tok'ra high council to bring a device showing at what speed replicators are taking over Goa'uld planets and eliminating cultures, and urge to mobilize all forces. While Sam joins Thor to search for an effective weapon, Ba'al offers an unholy alliance to fight the unprecedented threat for all, but is turned down by Jack. Ancient Oma Desala offers Daniel, while kidnapped by RepliCarter, a confusing, vague choice to ascend again, hoping he can then stop the Replicators overrunning the galaxy. The Jaffa seize the opportunity to seize 'home planet' Dakara, which proves an Ancvient home and harbors the ultimate weapon, which Ba'al wants to seize and overthrow his master Anubis.
