The Tok'ra, Part 1

Summary
SG-1 goes to a planet, hoping to find the Tok'ra and form an alliance.

Carter has a vision from Jolinar, the Goa'uld she temporarily was joined with. She gets a glimpse at the coordinates of the planet the Tok'ra in her vision are fleeing to. After waking up, she discusses with General Hammond and SG-1, whether they should go to the planet, or not. They agree to go there, hoping to form an alliance with the Tok'ra to destroy the System Lords.

SG-1 arrives in a desert with no aparant footsteps or any sign, that people have been around for some time. They make their way towards a dune when they are ambushed and surrounded by several people with Staff Weapons. Carter recognizes one of the people as Martouf and says, she recognizes them all as Tok'ra. SG-1 is then taken underground with Ring Transporters into a compound which looks exactely the same as the one from Carters vision. While they are taken to the leader of the Tok'ra, they walk through the compound, which is made entirely out of grown cristals. On their way, they see Selmak, a dying Tok'ra. All members of SG-1 are asked, whether they want to be the new host for Selmak, but they all refuse.

Afterwards they meet Garshaw, the most wanted Tok'ra of all. SG-1 explains that they want an alliance with the Tok'ra and how they found them and what happend to Jolinar. After a rusty start SG-1 is asked to wait, until the Tok'ra council will meet to discuss their proposal of an alliance. While waiting, Carter takes a walk with Martouf to understand Jolinar better and maybe order her thoughts from Jolinar.

Carter begins to understand Jolinar a lot better, when Daniel shows up, informing her, that the council now meets. In a newly grown chamber SG-1 meets the council and start negotiating about the alliance, on how the Tau'ri would be use to the Tok'ra and whether they could be trusted or not. They are interupted, when SG-3 arrives, with orders to extract Carter, because her father is lying in hospital dying from cancer. Meanwhile the council agrees, that the Tau'ri are no use to them, and orders them to stay until the Tok'ra would leave for a new base. SG-1 and SG-3 cannot leave, because they are a security risk to the Tok'ra, because of their knowledge of their base.
