''The official summary is not yet available as this episode has yet to air in the United States.''
Mitchell, Carter, and Teal'c are startled when Vala's personality suddenly shows up at Stargate Command — in Daniel's body. She's using an Alteran communications device to contact them all the way from the Ori's home galaxy.


== Episode Spoilers ==
Gen. Landry is not as impressed as Vala might have hoped. He and Daniel are due at a critical meeting with the Russian and Chinese representatives from the International Oversight Advisory Board. He'll have to handle the tricky negotiations alone, however, because Vala insists on telling her story before she'll give up Daniel's body.


After arriving in the Ori’s galaxy (9.06 "Beachhead"), Vala was taken in by a kindly, crippled villager, Tomin. Tomin believes in the Ori but, as a result of his disability, is a second-class citizen in his own religion. He marries Vala, and Vala becomes mysteriously pregnant. Since they have not had relations, Vala suspects that the Ori had something to do with her pregnancy.
After being sucked through a black hole created by the Ori, she explains, she awoke in a village called Ver Isca, where an Ori worshipper named Tomin took her in. As she slowly got to know her honest, kind benefactor and the other devout villagers, she was content to keep a low profile.


One day, Tomin arrives home no longer limping, claiming a Prior cured him and that he can now be a soldier in the crusade against Earth. After his cure he is a more fanatic follower of Origin than ever.
Some time later, she discovered she was pregnant. That was odd, because she hadn't slept with Tomin — or anyone else — since her arrival. Concerned that the villagers would burn her to death for having a baby (even a miraculous one) out of wedlock, she married Tomin, hoping to convince him that the child was his.


Vala is befriended by a barmaid, Denya, who appears to be a follower of the Ori but is in fact working to subvert them. The unseemly barkeep, Seevis, appears to be a true believer but is secretly a leader of an underground movement. Their goal is to sabotage the Ori plans to launch their ships and troops to fight in the name of the Ori. Under cover of being suspicious of Vala, he tortures her by thirst to see if she might admit to her true beliefs. Finally Tomin releases her, and she meets with Denya and Seevis and learns their true intentions — to blow up ten Ori ships that will soon be in orbit with tens of thousands of would-be soldiers aboard.
Then the Priors conscripted her brand-new husband into a vast army to wage war against the unbelievers of the Milky Way. Genuinely upset to see the gentle Tomin turned into a crusader, Vala turned to the local anti-Ori resistance movement for help. Those rebels, wisely, didn't trust her at first, but their torturous test of her commitment was a little extreme, even for Vala. Still, she passed, so they revealed their plans for decimating the Ori army: an act of sabotage so massive that it would destroy all the Priors' newly-built warships and kill most of the army — including Tomin.


Vala believes the plan may work, and at this point, working with Seevis and Denya, she finds the Ancient communication terminal and uses it to contact the SGC, through Daniel’s body.
Vala believed that their actions were justified, but she still urged Tomin — unsuccessfully — to stay home on the appointed day. As things turned out, she needn't have bothered, because the sabotage failed and the resistance cell was exposed.


'''Note that all spoilers are subject to change before the finished episode is produced.'''
Now, as she tells Mitchell, Carter and Teal'c, the Ori army is ready to deploy. That means they must also have overcome the last barrier keeping Earth and its neighbors safe: the vast distance between the Ori's galaxy and the Milky Way. Somewhere in this galaxy, a working supergate must exist — a door ready to swing open and unleash an intergalactic holy war.

Précis

Using the Ancient communication device and its stones, Vala takes over Daniel’s body at the SGC and recounts the story of what has happened to her since she was transported to the galaxy of the Ori. She is married and mysteriously pregnant, and she warns the SGC that the Ori are gathering ships and armies for a massive crusade to rid the Milky Way galaxy of its evil unbelievers.

Mitchell, Carter, and Teal'c are startled when Vala's personality suddenly shows up at Stargate Command — in Daniel's body. She's using an Alteran communications device to contact them all the way from the Ori's home galaxy.
