Storyline
Stargate Command has captured as many as 20 Ba'als and must weed out which one, if any, is the real Ba'al. They observe the Ba'als as they interact with each other — even going so far as to see them fight among themselves.
Eventually, they dwindle down the group to two who could possibly be the original Ba'al.
Will Ba'al finally reach his end, or will he be back to help SG-1 fight a bigger, badder enemy, such as the Ori, later on?
