STARGATE UNIVERSE

VISITATION

EPISODE NUMBER - 209

ORIGINAL U.S. AIR DATE - 11.23.10


DESTINY. In the bar, Nicholas Rush has his laptop open and is showing a group of the crew - including Doctor Morrison and Vanessa James - the footage of the background radiation and the structure buried inside it. Morrison looks at it, unimpressed.

MORRISON: Hmm. Not much to look at, is it?

RUSH: Well ... well, it depends what you see. I see a sign of intelligence that cannot possibly have been there by any current description of the universe - and yet there it is. I see the greatest mystery of all time.

JAMES: Really?

(Morrison is far more interested in the fact that Adam Brody, standing behind the bar near the still, is now pouring some alcohol into a mug.)

VISITATION

EPISODE NUMBER - 209

SCOTT: Um, can I get you anything?

ARMSTRONG: No.

SCOTT: OK.

(She laughs, then shakes her head ruefully and lowers it briefly.)

ARMSTRONG: You're trying so hard, but every time I look at your face you can't hide it.

SCOTT: What?

ARMSTRONG: That you're not looking at me any more - at least, not as the person I used to be. You see the other ...

SCOTT: Chloe ...

ARMSTRONG: No, it's just your inability to lie, Matthew. It's one of the best things about you, but I know what you see. I see it too.

(Looking down, she pulls up the sleeve of her cardigan to reveal new rough-looking alien growths on her arm just below the elbow.)

ARMSTRONG: This is new this morning.

SCOTT: We're gonna fix this.

ARMSTRONG: I don't even know if I want you to.

SCOTT: Yeah, you do.

ARMSTRONG: I'm hardly blacking out any more, and part of me is just there in the foreground. I'm not afraid of it any more.

SCOTT: You have to fight it.

ARMSTRONG: I think we're past that.

The new arrivals have been taken to a small holding cell. A Kino is floating above their heads and Young, Eli and Camille Wray are watching the live footage from Eli's room. The comms are open so that the two groups can talk to each other.

YOUNG: So that's the last thing you remember: going to sleep in the shuttle.

CAINE: And that it was cold. It was winter. We were using it as a shelter. I remember closing my eyes, and then we were delivered here by a greater power.

YOUNG: The aliens who created the planet, you mean.

CAINE: Or by providence.

WRAY: Are you suggesting that God did this?

CAINE: Is that you, Camille?

WRAY: Yes.

CAINE: It's nice to hear your voice. Uh, well, of course there's no way of knowing His will, but I do know that I prayed every night before I went to sleep that He would keep us safe.

WALLACE (cynically): So ... magic, then.

CAINE: You have to admit that our arrival here is nothing less than miraculous, Eli.

(Eli, who has been looking increasingly uncomfortable as the conversation has progressed, now shuts off the comms and talks over his shoulder to Young.)

WALLACE: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." Arthur C. Clarke.

YOUNG: "Turn the mic back on." Winston Churchill.

WALLACE (frowning): Really?

(Young gestures towards the screen, where Peter is shouting at the Kino. Eli turns the sound back on.)

PETER: ... are you gonna keep us here?

VAL: We haven't done anything.

YOUNG: Try to be patient. You'll be released once you've all undergone a physical examination one at a time.

CAINE: But we're perfectly fine.

YOUNG: Well, forgive me if I don't take your word for that. The more answers we have, the less precautions we'll have to take.

(He switches the comms off, and looks at Eli.)

YOUNG: Let's keep an eye on 'em.

(Eli nods, and Young leaves the room.)
