KELLER: You can go ahead, Rodney.
I don't remember where to start.
- KELLER: Sure you do.
- No.
KELLER: Start with your name,
like we've been doing, okay?
And we'll just go from there.
My name... My name is...
Mr. Rodney McKay.
- KELLER: No.
- Yes.
KELLER: Come on, now.
You 're Dr. McKay, remember?
No, I'm... I'm not anymore.
I'm not smart anymore.
Doctors are smart, so I'm mister now.
KELLER: Okay.
I used to be the smartest person ever.
And... And now I'm not.
KELLER: That's what
we're trying to fiX, right?
No. No, you can't fiX me.
KELLER: You know
we 're trying our very best...
No, you can't. You can't. You can't.
KELLER: It's okay. Rodney, what's the neXt
thing you 're supposed to say?
Where... Where did John go?
KELLER: He just had to go away
for a few minutes.
- He'll be right... Rodney...
- John!
Rodney, I'm your friend, I'm right here.
Where are you, John?
John!
Why the hell didn't you tell me
my brother was this far gone?
- It happened pretty fast, Jeannie.
- No, I...
I got a message from him
just a couple of weeks ago. He...
He seemed perfectly fine.
He'd never been so nice.
That would have been
shortly after he became infected.
I didn't recognize the symptoms in time.
It's not your fault, Doc.
WOOLSEY: Frankly, Mrs. Miller,
we contacted you
as soon as we became aware
of the seriousness of his condition.
In fact, Daedalus dropped you off
at the first available gate in Pegasus
because we were concerned
that you wouldn't make it here in time.
WOOLSEY: We thought you deserved
a chance to say goodbye.
Dr. Keller wanted to take a moment
to prepare him for your visit.
Yeah, I think I need a moment myself.
How did... How did this happen to him?
(SIGHING) There was a little snafu
on the last mission.
Colonel Sheppard,
when you reach the research camp,
please remind Dr. Nichols that he is now
one hour and 15 minutes overdue
for his scheduled check-in.
All right, want me to
smack him around or anything?
Just the reminder, please.
Shouldn't we be concerned
for Dr. Nichols' team?
No, the settlement's a half-hour
away from the gate.
He's got them checking in every six.
I'm sure Nichols is just tired
of taking the round trip.
McKAY: Still, it wouldn't hurt
to bust his chops a bit.
That Nichols is so arrogant.
Hmm.
Amelia, I think I'm going to risk heading
down to breakfast before they check in.
I just mean that it will probably take them
some time to get to the camp,
and then more time for Nichols
to get back to the gate and report.
There's really no point in my
telling you this.
- Not really, sir.
- Right.
Be back in 20 minutes.
(STARGATE ACTIVATES)
BANKS: Unscheduled offworld activation!
Activate the shield.
I'm not receiving an IDC.
This is Sheppard.
Do not lower the shield.
The entire tower will be flooded.
I have no intention of doing that, Colonel.
What's your status?
It's cold and wet.
The stargate's underwater.
- The entire valley's flooded.
- McKA Y: And it's freezing!
SHEPPARD: We need you to send
a Jumper through
so we can stay warm and dry
until the water recedes.
Will do, Colonel. Hold on.
Holding on. Sheppard out.
MAN ON RADIO: Rescue 1 is standing by.
What's taking so long?
Why isn't the gate disengaging?
McKAY: It's the water.
The constant pressure's
forcing the wormhole to stay active,
which means we'll have to wait
the maximum amount of time
a stargate can stay open, 38 minutes.
Well, we're down to 32,
and before you say "I told you so,"
we had no choice.
I can't stop shivering.
RONON: You're letting all the hot air
out of your mouth.
SHEPPARD: All right, everybody,
you'll be warm soon enough.
I don't know,
I think I got wetter than you did.
I don't know,
I got a little damp dialing the DHD.
TEYLA: The research camp was
further up this valley.
I'm a little concerned for Dr. Nichols' team.
Right.
Anyone at the research camp,
this is Colonel Sheppard. Please respond.
(RADIO CRACKLING)
I repeat, this is Colonel Sheppard.
Please respond.
- I'm pretty sure they're all dead.
- We can't know that, Rodney.
Look, the research team was studying
the effects of global warming.
They set up camp at the foot
of a massive glacier up the valley.
- You think an ice dam broke?
- McKAY: It fits.
I mean, the Ancients don't put
stargates on a floodplain,
and I certainly don't think
the tide just came in.
McKAY: It explains
why the water's so freezing.
(SNEEZES)
Okay... Okay, so now I'm hot
and I'm still shivering.
Were you running a fever before we left?
I don't know, maybe.
I'm always running something.
SHEPPARD: All right, I think
the water's receded a little. So...
McKAY: So we're going
to be stuck here all night.
SHEPPARD: In the back of a warm,
cozy Jumper, all right?
All you need to do is hold on for,
I don't know, 30 minutes or so.
KELLER: How long
has he been unresponsive?
TEYLA: Since he fell asleep in the Jumper,
about nine hours.
Okay, let's get him to the infirmary.
I want him under a scanner.
I want to have a look at you guys, too.
We're good.
By that, I mean now.
I think you've just made
a case for my proposal
to send a MALP ahead
of every single transit.
Stuff happens, Woolsey,
and by "stuff," I mean...
I know what you mean. Thank you.
Why didn't you return
in the Jumper I sent you?
I ordered the rescue party
to continue the search for Nichols' team.
- There's a chance they're still alive.
- Of course.
I gotta go get checked out,
and then I'm gonna check on Rodney.
Well, how's our boy?
No fever, no hypothermia,
- nothing on the scan at all.
- How about you guys?
- RONON: Like I said, we're good.
- Yeah, yeah.
TEYLA: But we're not the ones
who became unconscious.
Yeah, well, I didn't get much sleep
the night before,
and I did skimp on breakfast, so...
You know, Woolsey wants to send out
a MALP before every transit now.
- Well, that's going to get old fast.
- That's what I said.
Hey, can I go now?
I feel a little silly lying here.
I'm keeping you under observation
for a little longer.
Besides, I ordered you dinner.
Well, then you can observe me eat,
because I'm famished.
Yeah, it's official. He's better.
See you, guys.
- KELLER: Do you want me to send them in?
- Okay.
Rodney's all ready for you.
What am I supposed to say?
Does it matter?
Meredith?
It's me. It's Jeannie, I'm...
You're my sister.
- Yes.
- Meredith's my real name.
It's your first name, that's right,
but you never liked it.
No.
No, it's a girl's name.
Sometimes, yes,
but you go by Rodney.
Rodney McKay. Mr. Rodney McKay.
Rodney McKay. Rodney McKay.
You're crying because of me.
No, I'm crying because
I missed you very much.
'Cause you're my sister.
That's right.
I'm sick.
I know. I know.
I'm here now.
I'm...
Sweetie, I just need to go outside
for one second, okay?
I will be right back. I promise.
RONON: Hey.
JEANNIE: I know.
(CRYING)
I just need a second.
I just don't want him to see...
I know how you feel. I felt the same way.
I'll go back in. I will.
He needs me, and I want to
be able to say goodbye, but it's like...
- It's like he's already gone.
- I know.
There's a way.
What? How?
It's a place. I've been there before.
He'll be himself again,
and you can say goodbye.
I don't understand,
then why haven't you already taken him?
Because it's dangerous,
but I'm willing to risk it if you are.
KELLER: All set?
Remind me to register a complaint
with whosever idea this was.
KELLER: It was yours, actually.
Oh. Oh...
Well, complaint duly registered.
KELLER: It was a good idea
to keep a record
of what's happening to you and how fast,
- but if you'd rather not...
- No, it's fine. It's fine.
- Start with my name, right?
- KELLER: Right.
I remembered something.
My name is Dr. Rodney McKay.
I'm head of the department of science
something in A tlantis in the...
For God's sake...
In the Pegasus GalaXy.
KELLER: Okay, not bad, keep going.
Jennifer, there's...
There's something I wanted to...
You know, while I remember,
while I still can,
something I wanted to say, before...
KELLER: Go ahead.
Jeannie.
I wasn't expecting anyone this late.
Yeah, I'm kind of one of those people
who needs all the information
they can get.
This is his most recent scan.
This dark area that looks like a tumor
is actually a parasitic organism.
Its tendrils spread far beyond
any hope of surgical extraction,
and it's not responding to treatment.
Even stasis barely slowed its progression.
There are still a number
of drug combinations that...
He was infected somehow
on his last mission?
Well, maybe, but not necessarily.
It was too small to show up
on a scan at the time,
but in the Pegasus Galaxy,
the condition is fairly common
among the very old.
Right, so why him?
It's possible we're all exposed to it
and fight it off.
Rodney was already suffering
from a viral infection
when he went on the mission at M44-5Y9,
and then all that time in freezing water...
So his resistance was low.
The parasite doesn't so much as kill cells
as render them dormant,
for reasons I still don't
completely understand.
But the net result is
ever-diminishing brain function.
As it spreads, he'll lose motor control,
regulation of organ function...
Ronon's people call the disease
second childhood.
- You talked to Ronon.
- Yes.
Okay, I know what he's told you.
That he's dying,
and there's nothing you can do.
No, he's dying,
and I'm doing everything I can.
I have to ask you.
Why did you tell me you didn't recognize
the symptoms in time?
Because he was already
showing the symptoms
when he came back
from the mission, and
I didn't see it.
So?
Just what the doctor ordered.
- (CHUCKLING) Funny.
- You want my fruit cup?
- No, no, no.
- I think you do.
Eating from the patient's tray
is kind of frowned upon.
Jennifer, we practically dated.
You bought me one drink.
That's hardly dating.
Right, so now I'm asking you
to have dinner with me.
I mean, such as it is.
I do love the fruit cup.
Not that this is exactly
the dinner I had in mind, but...
- Is that an invitation?
- Only if you promise to accept.
KELLER: If I wasn't so taken
by the new Rodney McKay,
the parasite might have been
small enough for me to operate
without causing significant brain trauma.
By the time he started to forget,
it was too late.
I haven't given up
on trying to find a treatment.
Ronon told me about this place
that could give Mere one more day
as himself again before he dies.
Jeannie, you can't possibly believe...
And that you're the one
who won't let him go.
RONON: It's on a planet called Talus.
It's one of the original worlds
of the Ancestors.
It took us about five or six hours
to get there from the gate,
but I was just a kid
and my grandfather had
to be carried most of the way.
We could do it in about half that time.
There's a small problem with that plan.
The Wraith established
a major outpost there
during the Replicator war.
It's still there.
Yeah, that's never stopped us from going
anywhere we needed to go before.
Well, it's not just that.
You don't believe it's real.
- I'm not saying...
- I am, actually.
- I was there.
- Yes, but you were six years old.
Ronon, listen to what you've told us.
A magical shrine inside a cave,
behind a waterfall.
Did I say it was magic?
KELLER: No, but you did say that people
afflicted with McKay's condition
suddenly revert
to their former selves for...
The Shrine of Talus
is also known among my people
for victims of the second childhood.
It offers the gift of one last day
and a quick death.
That doesn't necessarily make it real.
I'm telling you that in a matter of seconds
I saw my grandfather go from someone
who couldn't speak his own name
to the man that taught me
how to track and hunt.
You learned to hunt
when you were six years old?
For one day,
he got to hold his wife in his arms
and share a meal
with the people that he loved,
and then he died with honor.
You can say I was too young to remember,
but I know what I saw,
and we can do the same thing for McKay.
If you think that's not worth it,
you're wrong.
I've never told anyone this, outside of...
My father had
a disease called Alzheimer's.
It's similar in many respects
to the condition
that Dr. McKay is suffering from.
My point is,
I had a similar moment with him
to the one you just described.
He hadn't recognized me,
literally, for months,
and then one day, out of the blue,
he had a moment of absolute clarity.
He said,
"Richard, what are you doing here?"
And I said, "Dad, I...
"I'm here to see you. "
And he said...
He said, "Isn't that wonderful?"
And then he was gone again.
Now, couldn't you be
remembering a similar...
It's not the same.
- Ronon, look...
- I owe him this!
- I'll take him myself.
- I'll go with him.
Hold on, hold on.
We know for a fact
there are two hive ships
and 10,000 Wraith on the ground.
If we're even going to
consider this, all right,
- we have to make a plan.
- Fine, make your plan.
I'm sorry, but he's not going anywhere
without my permission,
and you won't get that
until we talk to Rodney.
Hey, Rodney.
You got some visitors. John's here.
So are Teyla and Ronon. The whole team.
- Ronon Dex.
- That's right, buddy.
I want to take you to a place,
a place that's gonna give you a chance
to be yourself again for a little while.
As you were before you became ill.
Before...
- Hey, pal.
- Hey, John.
Truth is, we don't
know exactly what's
gonna happen to you,
but we're willing to try if you are.
Okay.
Okay. Okay, well, that settles it, then.
No, it doesn't.
- Rodney, they haven't told you everything.
- He doesn't need to know.
The planet they want to take you to
is a Wraith outpost.
Do you remember who the Wraith are?
It means going will be very,
very dangerous,
not just for you, but for your friends.
We're willing to take that risk.
A risk for which,
and I'm sorry, even if it works,
which I very much doubt,
you might revert
to your former self for one day.
Now, forgive me if that sounds
more like torture than a blessing.
KELLER: We're still coming up with
new ideas on how to treat this thing,
but if you do this, if you leave Atlantis...
Atlantis...
It's over.
I can't help you.
(MUMBLING)
TEYLA: Doctor.
He doesn't understand.
No, he doesn't,
which means the decision on
whether or not to let him go is mine,
and I haven't given up
on trying to cure my patient.
JEANNIE: And you still haven't given up.
No, because I don't think
the damage to the cells is permanent,
which means if I can
safely remove the parasite...
How long have you been at it? Weeks?
And how many days does he have left?
What, two at most?
Look, I know you've done
everything you can.
I know you feel responsible
and you want to keep trying,
but I'm his next of kin.
That makes the decision mine.
And we're taking him.
KELLER: It's recording.
Well, aren't you supposed
to say, "Action, " or something?
KELLER: Oh. Sorry.
Kidding. Okay, here we go.
My name is Dr. Rodney McKay.
I am head of the science
and research departments
here in A tlantis, in the Pegasus GalaXy,
in the local cluster,
in the universe as we know it.
The purpose of this log
is to provide a baseline for myself
and for Dr. Keller
to monitor the progress of my
memory loss.
(CHUCKLING)
Ironic, isn't it?
By reciting the aforementioned,
as well as a list of things
I know like the back of my hand,
starting with pi, to, say,
12 decimals. 3. 1415926535...
- Rodney on board?
- Y es.
Are we clear on the rules of engagement?
We'll be in and out
before the Wraith even know it.
WOOLSEY: Colonel Sheppard,
if in fact Dr. McKay does regain his...
Say goodbye for me.
- I thought you didn't believe.
- Is that a prerequisite?
He'll be glad you're here.
All right, we're either gonna
get away with this, or we're not.
If we don't, the ride's going to be wild
and it's going to be fast,
so I need everyone prepared.
Jumper 3, standing by.
Send a MALP through.
WOOLSEY: The MALP is clear of the gate,
and they're firing on it from both sides
of what appears to be a deep valley.
WOOLSEY: It's deploying smoke.
You should have complete coverage
of the area in five seconds.
Okay, see you tomorrow.
I hope so.
RONON: That's one hell of a valley.
TEYLA: Do you think they detected us
before we were able to cloak?
No, I think the smokescreen worked.
Hopefully they think we just sent
a MALP through ahead of us
and changed our mind
when they blew it up.
SHEPPARD: All right, I'm going to do
a sweep of the landing area.
Shouldn't take more than a few minutes.
McKA Y: John, John!
(PANTING)
John! John!
John!
You were there, and then...
Rodney, Rodney, I'm right here.
What's wrong?
I woke up, everyone had left!
Buddy, I'm...
I'm sorry, I thought you'd fallen asleep.
(GROANING)
I was... I got so scared. I was sure that
by morning what was left of my mind
was gonna be gone!
I'm gonna take you back
to your quarters, okay?
John, John, I've never been so scared.
I'm slipping away.
I'm slipping away,
and I don't know how to stop myself!
Look, you're still here. All right?
You're still here.
Yeah. I am.
And I'm not going anywhere.
You know, you want to hang out,
you just hang out.
I don't know what to do.
I don't know what to do with myself. I'm...
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have woken you up.
All right, look, it's a nice night out.
Let's go have some beer
on the pier, okay?
- I drink beer?
- Yeah, a lot.
Take this.
Come on, buddy, let's go.
McKAY: I don't know,
should I have another?
SHEPPARD: What could happen?
I shouldn't have banged
on your door like that. I feel ridiculous.
Don't.
(McKAY SIGHS)
I've been trying to remember
the name of my sister's kid.
Betty.
Betty.
Pretty sure that's not it.
It's Madison. See?
- At least you remembered what it wasn't.
- There's an underrated skill.
I'm just saying you may not be
as far gone as you think.
I'm hiding it.
Believe me, I've already forgotten more
than most people will ever know,
and I know that sounds...
- Arrogant, is that right?
- Yeah.
(CHUCKLING) That works.
This morning I was trying
to help Zelenka finish a device
that was apparently my idea.
I was useless.
Jennifer says it's going to get worse now
almost by the hour.
In a week or so,
I won't even remember my name.
How's about...
- How about we say goodbye now?
- No.
- What do you mean, "No"?
- I mean I'm not saying goodbye.
- I'm saying it anyway.
- Well, I'm not listening.
Yeah, but pretty soon
I won't even know who you are.
Then I'll remind you.
Yeah, but I don't want you
to see me like that.
I want you to remember me as I am,
as your genius friend,
- not as some...
- Not happening.
- Please.
- You're stuck with me, Rodney.
- Just accept it.
- Yeah, but...
No!
That's final.
Okay.
Okay.
You're a good friend, Arthur.
(BOTH LAUGHING)
All right, landing area's clear.
I'm taking us in.
McKAY: Where are we going?
Up there, do you see?
Behind the waterfall, there is a cave,
and when we get there, you will spend
a wonderful day with your friends.
I'm tired.
I know. We'll be there soon.
(McKAY WHIMPERING)
KELLER: So what do we do?
RONON: We wait.
SHEPPARD: Rodney. Look at the waterfall.
It's cool, huh?
No.
(DEVICE BEEPING)
I'm getting very faint energy readings.
- What kind of energy readings?
- I'm not sure.
KELLER: Radiation?
Not that I've ever seen.
Maybe we can ask Rodney in a minute.
John!
Just hang in there, buddy.
I want to go home now!
Perhaps he should stand
closer to this tablet.
I don't know. I think that's the source
of these energy readings.
I want to go now!
- A little bit longer.
- Go...
(SCREAMING)
Jeannie?
I'm here, Mere.
Yeah, obviously.
He's back.
Will someone please tell me
what the hell we're all doing here?
Rodney McKay.
I'm head of science and...
And... And... And...
Research.
Damn it!
- KELLER: It's okay.
- No, it is not.
Atlantis...
Pegasus...
It's 3. 14...
I don't know.
How can I not know that?
KELLER: Do you want to stop?
I keep seeing a face.
Every time I close my eyes.
I think it's my mother.
I don't... I don't
recognize her... It was so long ago.
She's saying words to me.
I don't know them.
McKAY: Well, you can start with,
what is this place?
- RONON: It's the Shrine of Talus.
- That means nothing to me.
It's a planet of the Ancestors.
We brought you here.
Thank you, Mr. Information.
Since when did he become
Ronon the Explainer,
and why am I not in the infirmary?
What am I, better?
I am better!
No, you're not.
I am. I can feel it. This is amazing!
Mere, we brought you here
so we could have a chance
to say goodbye to each other,
but you're only going to feel like this
for about a day.
- That's just how it works.
- What?
What do you remember?
I remember you not wanting me
to say goodbye then.
Why now, all of a sudden?
McKAY: Look, and why one day?
What's with that?
It is a gift of the shrine and from all of us
who risked great danger
to bring you here,
one last chance to be with those you love.
And then what?
I die?
- With honor.
- And dignity.
Yeah, well, screw that, I'll just stay here.
- Doesn't work that way.
- Why not?
One, this is a Wraith-controlled planet.
And we're detecting ionizing radiation.
In fact, we shouldn't be
standing this close to the shrine.
You gotta be kidding me.
How could you let them do this to me?
Don't blame her.
She didn't even want to do this.
McKAY: Then whose brilliant idea was it?
- Mine.
- We all thought it was a good thing.
How could this possibly be a good thing?
Look, I got past the humiliation,
I've said my goodbyes.
Meredith, I'm sorry this happened to you,
but I'm not sorry that I got this chance.
Please, just try to see this
as an opportunity and not...
Torture?
Look, I'm sorry, I just...
I thought I was going to be okay,
and then now you tell me...
Did you have
some kind of itinerary planned?
Well, actually,
we're going to have a big feast first.
Last supper, huh?
Well, suits your messiah complex.
True.
Please don't be mad at me.
I guess if I had to choose the people
I would spend my last day with, then...
(DEVICE BEEPING)
What is it?
Honestly, I didn't expect it to work.
I expected nothing would happen,
and that would be that.
So why did it?
You don't believe in magic shrines
any more than I do.
Show him the readings.
- Hmm.
- That's what I said.
You said, "Hmm?"
I just meant that
I thought it was weird, too.
So what do you think, antimatter?
Or a super-heavy element the Ancients
used to use as an energy source.
McKAY: I've never seen it before.
JEANNIE: Or created to power
whatever this place used to be.
Well, who could tell what that is?
It must be thousands of years since...
(DEVICE BEEPING)
- Whoa! See that spike?
- RONON: Come on, this is your party.
- Let's have some fun.
- McKAY: For me, this is fun.
Just save me some ham.
There it goes again.
It's like some kind of
intermittent gamma that's...
- Come with me.
- What? Why?
Because I need to find out something.
- Where are we going?
- Hopefully all the way back to Atlantis.
(SCREAMING)
- KELLER: Sorry.
- Why did you do that?
To determine whether the parasite
would expand rapidly back into his brain
when we took him from
the radiation source, and I think it did.
KELLER: The reason why his symptoms
disappeared when we came here
was because it contracted
to protect itself.
All right, well,
what does that mean for us?
That leaving this chamber
will probably kill him.
KELLER: We can't take him back
to Atlantis.
KELLER: So
we're gonna have to find a way
for me to operate on him right here.
I thought you already tried radiation.
I did, but we've never
come across this kind before.
The parasite is radiosensitive to it.
That's why the shrine works.
You feel fine for one day
until the radiation starts
making you feel sick and then you leave.
The farther away you get, the more rapidly
the parasite expands back into your brain.
And your day is over. I get it.
So, if we're here,
it's small enough to operate?
Well, I'm guessing here,
but that's the only thing I can think of
that would explain his sudden remission,
but I'm not going to know for certain
until I get in there.
How are you going to manage that
with a field kit?
I don't. We would have to
bring equipment back from Atlantis.
Well, that's a problem.
What if we radio Atlantis and ask them
to send a second Jumper through
with what I need?
- No, we can't.
- I need that equipment, John.
The Wraith are never going
to fall for the same trick twice.
Even if somehow they don't
pick up on our radio signal,
and even if the second Jumper makes it
through the gauntlet,
they're gonna know we're here.
We'll never make it back to Atlantis.
If we don't try, he's dead.
- What do you need?
- To operate? I already told you.
No, bare minimum, what do you need?
More than I have in my medical kit.
I mean, I'd need a scanner
to find out the location of the parasite,
I'd need the proper tools
to cut his skull open...
All right.
I got an idea.
Keep him as far away
from this thing as he can stand.
We'll be back in 20 minutes.
You can't expect me
to operate with those.
Well, I've seen surgical drills,
they're not that much different.
Fine, assuming we can open him up,
I still have no way of knowing
where the parasite has contracted to.
We can use this.
- A life signs detector?
- Yeah. Why not?
It's just not designed to do
what I need it to do on the correct scale.
We'll have Jeannie modify it.
No, you don't understand.
The radiation is compromising
his immune system as we speak,
which means if I don't kill him,
the infection he's bound to get
by being operated on in a damp cave
almost certainly will!
Look, if we don't do something, he's dead.
You said it.
McKAY: Absolutely not!
We're talking about saving your life.
Look, my brain is not some new deck
off the back of your house.
I'm not the one doing the surgery.
Yeah, and as my parting advice,
you need to stop letting these guys
talk you into doing stupid things.
- I can do it.
- Really?
And I'm fairly sure
I can modify the life signs detector.
- Yeah, with my help.
- So help.
Look, this isn't one of those PBS brain
surgeries where my skull is wide open
and we're having a conversation...
I have enough anesthetic to put you out.
You're not going to feel a thing.
Yeah, it's probably a hammer.
Time is of the essence, Rodney.
You need to make a decision.
Please, Mere. Let us try.
Look, obviously
I'd get around to consenting.
It's just, you've thrown
an awful lot at me all at once.
That's life.
All right, well, let me have a little ham.
No. No food before surgery.
Bye, Jeannie.
Sorry I was mean sometimes.
Bye. Bye, Teyla.
Bye, Ronon DeX.
Bye, John.
Bye.
KELLER: I'm going to have to cut here,
here
and here,
and drill those points to resect the area.
SHEPPARD: Okay.
I don't want to penetrate the dura layers
until we get to that stage,
so hold him as still as you can.
Go.
(DRILL WHIRRING)
I took too long reconfiguring
the life signs detector.
I haven't given her enough time
to perform the surgery
before his immune system
is compromised.
Damn it, I went too far. Hold him steady.
I'm trying.
It's the parasite, it's moving.
Maybe it knows we're going after it.
I don't think so.
I think it instinctually wants
to get away from the radiation source,
and we've just shown it the way out.
Ronon, we're going to need
that gun of yours in about 10 seconds.
You could have stepped on it.
She told me to shoot it.
It's clear.
You did a good job.
You, too.
Let's get him home.
Why don't you go get some sleep?
I'm gonna be here all night.
It's okay. I'd like to be here
when he wakes up.
Well, it could be a while.
He does love to sleep, our Rodney.
You should've seen him
when he was a teenager.
Who can sleep with all the talking?
Hi.
Hi.
You still all there?
Well, there was so much to spare.
(McKAY SIGHING)
Thank you.
You're welcome.
That was scary.
For me, too.
You hungry?
Peckish.
I'll go order you something.
Jennifer, there's something I wanted to...
While I remember, while I still can,
there's something I wanted to say before...
KELLER: Go ahead.
I...
I love you.
I've loved you for some time now.
Okay, where was I?
