Plantilla:SG1-5 "Menace" is the nineteenth episode of the fifth season of Stargate SG-1.
Synopsis[]
SG-1 finds Reese the last of her people on her home planet. They take her back and soon learn that she is an android. Furthermore, she can create Replicators, and they soon become a serious threat to Stargate Command.
Plot[]
SG-1 arrives on a world ravaged by war. In a building, they find a young woman android, completely unscathed. Major Samantha Carter and Dr. Daniel Jackson convince Major General George S. Hammond to allow them to bring the android back to Stargate Command for further study. The android is activated and speaks with SG-1, telling them its name is Reese, but will not reveal any details of how her world was destroyed when asked.
Colonel Jack O'Neill, Teal'c and SG-3 return to the planet and discover Replicator blocks, they realize that the world was annihilated by Replicators. After the team's return Reese creates a Replicator as a toy for her and Jackson to play with. He is shocked, and the Replicator is contained, being placed in a reinforced glass box guarded by Teal'c, much to Reese's dismay. Reese becomes upset, believing everyone hates her because she was 'Created Wrong', and believes that they all wish to destroy her and her toys, the Replicators. Jackson tries to console her and convince her otherwise, in the process learning that the people of her world came to fear her and her 'toys', leading them to attempt to destroy them. Reese admits that she told her 'toys' to 'make more of themselves' and that she 'taught them how to defend themselves', then lost control of them, accidentally creating the Replicator plague.
Eventually, Reese, believing that everybody is plotting to destroy her and her 'toys', again, creates an army of Replicators and attempts to escape through the Stargate, locking herself in the Embarkation room while she learns how to use the Stargate. Fearing that she will lose control of her Replicators again, Hammond decides that they must shut down or destroy Reese. Jackson attempts to shut her down by tricking her into trusting him again and then removing her power source, while Carter and Hammond activate the base's Self-destruct and Teal'c, O'Neill and several SGC personnel attempt to break into the gate room. Jackson fails but continues trying to convince Reese to stop what she is doing while the self-destruct is activated and the gate room blast doors are cut open. After activating the self-destruct, Carter realizes that the Replicators are beginning to act independently of Reese, as they had feared. O'Neill breaks into the gate room, just as Jackson appears to have convinced Reese to deactivate the Replicators. O'Neill shoots Reese, inflicting mortal damage on the android. As Reese shuts down, the Replicator blocks separate. Even though he understands that O'Neill had no choice, Jackson becomes extremely angry at him, since he believed he had convinced Reese to stop the Replicators, that she turned them off rather than because O'Neill destroyed her and that he destroyed their only chance to stop the Replicators.

Notable Quotes[]
Carter: There's a pulse.
Jackson: It has a heartbeat?
O'Neill: It has a heart?
Warren: Colonel, you said to look for anything uncharacteristic of the indigenous civilization.
O'Neill: I would never say anything like that, Major.
Warren: Right. Well, Major Carter said not to ignore anything however insignificant it may seem.
O'Neill: What have you got?
Warren: Well I'm sure it's nothing, Sir, but we found a bunch of these scattered around. I've never seen anything like them before.
(He hands O'Neill a container, from which O'Neill takes out a piece of a replicator.)
Warren: You know what they are?
O'Neill: Oh yeah.
Carter: It's possible she's giving off some sort of signal or frequency that repels them, maybe not even by design, but by coincidence.
O'Neill: Bug spray?
O'Neill: Hey. That went well.
Carter: Maybe she has some kind of program that prevents her from acknowledging that she is anything but human.
O'Neill: Robot-denial?
Jackson: Looks that way.
O'Neill: Has it occurred to anyone that this thing may have been laying around that planet for quite some time and that maybe it's broken? Or perhaps it never worked right in the first place.
Carter: So you think we should just shut her down?
O'Neill: Oh, I don't know. Let's ask the man who just had his head cracked open.
Jackson: I don't think she meant to hurt me, I just don't think she liked what I was saying.
O'Neill: I don't like most of what you say but I try to resist the urge to shove you through a wall.
Carter: Somehow Reece managed to survive a massive attack from replicators. There has to be more that we can learn from her, Sir.
Reese: This is boring.
O'Neill: I'm starting to identify with this girl more and more.
O'Neill: (talking on the phone with Hammond) Yes, sir, we may have a replicator situation down here. I suggest sealing the base and doing a clean sweep. Yes, sir. And we also have a robot on the loose.
Carter: (talking to O'Neill) Sir, we have to preserve her in one piece.
O'Neill: (repeating Carter's words to Hammond) And we'd like it in one piece, if possible.
Reese: It wasn't my fault. The people on my planet were afraid. They wanted to destroy my toys. They wanted to destroy me. They said that my father made me wrong. They thought that I was bad.
Jackson: What did you do?
Reese: I taught my toys to make more of themselves.
Jackson: You stupid son of a bitch.
O'Neill: Hey. You're welcome.
Jackson: You didn't have to shoot her.
O'Neill: Yes. I did.
Jackson: She was shutting them down.
O'Neill: I had no way of knowing that and neither did you.
Jackson: They didn't stop because you shot her. They stopped because she told them to.
O'Neill: Carter said she was losing control. Now if just one of those damn things got out of this base, developed its own personality, we would be royally screwed.
Jackson: You just killed the only chance we'll ever have of stopping them.
O'Neill: Look, I'm sorry. But this is the way it had to go down and you know it.
Notes[]
Plantilla:Source images
- Though Reese was irreparably damaged, the Asgard found a command code in Reese calling all the Replicators forward. This eventually led to the creation of the Human-form Replicators in "Unnatural Selection".
- According to the commentary, the opening scene of this episode when SG-1 are entering the building where they find Reese, was shot on Plantilla:WPS. When they heard the news of the terrorist attacks, Christopher Judge requested to be in the background instead of in the forefront because he was so emotionally broken up. He had family in New York at the time.
- For one of the few times in the series, Major General George S. Hammond wears combat fatigues and uses an SPAS-12 semiautomatic shotgun to defend Stargate Command. He also dresses in combat gear and flies in the Needle Threader in "Into the Fire". In "There But for the Grace of God", Colonel George S. Hammond from an alternate reality likewise wore combat fatigues.
- This is the first of two episodes of Stargate SG-1 written by James Tichenor, the shows visual effects supervisor.
- This is Don S. Davis' 100th episode.
- Lexa Doig, who stared as Rommie on Andromeda, was originally considered for the role of Reese but she rejected because there was an issue that she would be playing an android again. Doig would later appear in season 9 as Dr. Carolyn Lam.
Goofs[]
- When Reese was in stasis in her home planet and was discovered by SG-1, though she was not functional at the time, the pulse in her neck was clearly visible during close up scenes.
- When Dr. Daniel Jackson goes to visit Reese, the guard outside her room swipes the card key backwards, with the black stripe on the wrong side.
