Battle[]
Biliskner[]
Replicators attempts to take control of the Biliskner.
During a battle the Replicators manage to take control of Thor's ship the Biliskner and set course for Earth. Thor beams out the crew and disables the outbound transporter and is somehow injured. He places himself in a stasis pod although he doesn't activate it and is unable to figure out how to destroy the ship, records a message for Colonel Jack O'Neill on the ship's systems and the what has happened and beams him aboard. O'Neill manages to avoid the Replicators and finds the message and Thor and using the ship's systems, contacts Stargate Command for weapons and explosives to attempt to destroy the ship before the Replicators can land it on Earth. He refuses to beam Teal'c and Major Samantha Carter aboard as there is no way to beam off, but when he beams the supplies up, they come with it planning to use space suits to abandon ship and get picked up by a space shuttle. The Replicators, attracted by the transport, attack them but they manage to shoot enough to get away discovering that human guns are capable of destroying the Replicators.
Consulting with Thor, they try to find the best places to plant explosives, but Thor knew of no places where they could be successfully implemented. Looking at the ship's design, Carter comes up with the plan to set up explosives on the ship's deceleration drive then blow it as it enters Earth's atmosphere causing the ship to have an uncontrolled entry and burn up. Teal'c exits the ship through the only active airlock and successfully plants the explosives but is unable to get back in and due to a damaged air tank, starts to run out of air. Teal'c manages to get within range of the ship's transporter and Carter beams him aboard. In order to escape they beam the Stargate on board and manually dial out to another planet to escape. The three hold off the Replicators until the ship starts to enter the atmosphere and blow the bomb, destroying the deceleration drive causing the ship to enter the atmosphere out of control and burn up, destroying the ship and all but one Replicator which managed to survive. O'Neill, Teal'c, Carter and Thor manage to escape through the Stargate before the ship's destruction and Thor is picked up soon afterwards and the other three manage to return through Earth's other Stargate a week later.[4]
Blackbird[]
The last remaining Replicator from Thor's ship boards the Russian submarine Blackbird that was passing through the area and killed the crew and started to replicate. Colonel Jack O'Neill, Teal'c and some soldiers boarded the sub which was towed in close while Major Samantha Carter traveled with Thor to Othala to deal with a Replicator threat there and Dr. Daniel Jackson remained on shore as he was still recovering from an emergency appendectomy and was still not ready to fight yet. The attack team finds a Replicator Queen and too many Replicators for them to deal with. After Stevens is killed, O'Neill and Teal'c abandon the submarine and they plan to torpedo it until Daniel realizes that they can't afford to until they kill the original Replicator that survived the destruction of Thor's ship as its the only Replicator that could possibly survive the destruction of the sub and being released into the water as it was made of a different material than the other Replicators it had created.
The Replicator Queen.
Teal'c and O'Neill invaded the sub, created a distraction, and destroyed the Queen with a grenade and although the original Replicator reformed, O'Neill destroyed it with machine gun fire. Unfortunately, the two were chased by the Replicators and cut off from the only exit as the sub started to take off. O'Neill ordered the sub torpedoed with them still on it and as the sub was destroyed taking out the Replicators on it, O'Neill and Teal'c were beamed out by Thor who had arrived back in orbit after dealing with the threat to his homeworld with Carter's help.[2]
