DANIEL
It says that the Alterans named their new home "Avalon," and that they built many Astria Porta.
MITCHELL
Stargates?
DANIEL
Yes.

9.02 "Avalon Part 2"
INT—OUTSIDE TEAL'C AND MITCHELL'S CHAMBER, AVALON CAVES
DANIEL
Uh, what's the puzzle?
[Following scenes switch rapidly between the interior of the cave where Teal'c and Mitchell are trapped and just outside the door, where Daniel attempts to help as Vala looks on.]
MITCHELL
There's eight stones with symbols on them and some Ancient writing. I think—
DANIEL
Describe the writing!
MITCHELL
Uh, "U" with a square over it. Chair with a little square. Upside-down backwards "L", call that "seven." Squares unevenly stacked. That chair thing again. Big "N" and "sad face."
DANIEL
Uh, "reflect." It means "reflect"!
MITCHELL
Reflect?
[Teal'c is now on one knee, his back bracing the ceiling. Mitchell's chin is against the top of the altar, the top of his head touching the ceiling. He has his arm fully extended to reach the blocks of symbols.]
DANIEL
(concentrating)
Reflect, reflect…reflect on the eightfold path. Buddhism teaches an eightfold path to enlightenment.
MITCHELL
Yeah, that tells me exactly NOTHING!
DANIEL
(in despair)
I'm sorry. I can't help if I can't see the symbols of the stones you're supposed to put in order.
MITCHELL
(muttering to himself, annoyed)
Reflect.. "reflect on the eightfold path." "Reflect on the eight."
[As Mitchell holds one of the blocks, his thumb partially obscures the symbol, making the remainder look like the number four. He cocks his head, inspired, and repeats covering and uncovering part of the symbol.]
MITCHELL
Four.
[Teal'c is now on his hands and knees. Mitchell struggles to complete the puzzle, now with a strategy in mind.]
MITCHELL
Six.
[The ceiling is so low by now, Mitchell can barely see the top of the altar. He fumbles the symbols into place, still muttering. Daniel and Vala worry helplessly crouched on the other side of the sealed door. Abruptly, the rumbling noise stops.]
DANIEL
(screaming desperately)
Teal'c!
VALA
(quietly reassuring)
Look, I didn't hear any screaming or squishing sounds, so—

VALA
I don't understand, we solved the riddles.
(gesturing between Daniel and Mitchell)
Well, he solved one and he solved one, and he won the fight.
MITCHELL
And what? Nothing?
DANIEL
But you're the only one who defeated the knight. That sword was obviously designed to sense whoever pulled it from the stone. (indicating himself, Vala, and Tealc')
What if there are sensors detecting us?
