| Trivia | This film was shot in only 18 days. See more » |
| Goofs | (at around 1h 30 mins) Vala tells Daniel that to activate the ark he must enter seven symbols. Daniel reveals that the keyword is 'origin' which in English has only 6 letters. However, in the dialect of Ancient shared by the Alterens and the Ori, the word for 'origin', which also means 'truth', could easily be 7 letters long. It had been revealed earlier (at around 16 mins) that the ancient word for truth is 'verimas' similar to the Latin 'veritas'. See more » |

| Quotes |
Teal'c:
Nothing I have done since turning against the goa'uld will make up for the atrocities I once committed in their name. Somewhere deep inside you you knew it was wrong, a voice you did not recognize screamed for you to stop. You saw no way out, it was the way things were, they could not be changed. You're trying to convince yourself the people you're hurting deserved it. You became numb to their pain and suffering, you learned to shut out the voice speaking against it. Tomin: There's always a choice. Teal'c: Indeed there is. Tomin: I chose to ignore it. Teal'c: Yet you sit here now. Tomin: I sit here, and I cannot imagine the day when I will forgive myself. Teal'c: Because it will never come. One day others may try to convince you they have forgiven you, that is more about them than you. For them, imparting forgiveness is a blessing. Tomin: How do you go on? Teal'c: It is simple. You will never forgive yourself. Accept it. You hurt others, many others, that cannot be undone. You will never find personal retribution, but your life does not have to end. That which is right, just and true can still prevail. If you do not fight for what you believe in all may be lost for everyone else. But do not fight for yourself, fight for others, others that may be saved through your effort. That is the least you can do. See more » |
