Story

Teaser

  • In space, nearby a planet and its companion star, some star's matter is attracted. Suddenly, a blast occurs then a small black hole appears, sucking all the solid rocks in it, and making it stronger.
  • On the surface of the planet, four people are running in a desert sand, but their steps seems in slow motion. Major Henry Boyd is urging his SG-10 teammates, but his voice is slowed as well. He grabs Captain Watts, who fell on the sand, and order hims to dial Earth on the Dial Home Device located after the top of the hill. They eventually reach the DHD, and Watts starts dialing Earth, but tells the team that they won't make it. Boyd encourages the team that they will make it and turns over to see what's behind him.
  • Meanwhile, in Stargate Command, Captain Samantha Carter and Colonel Jack O'Neill, speaking about the presence of a wormhole between two open Stargates. Carter tries to compare the wormhole to a worm inside an apple, but O'Neill seems lost in the explanation. Suddenly, the Stargate activates. Lieutenant Graham Simmons, who was in the SGC briefing room during the chat, warns O'Neill and Carter of an unscheduled incoming activation.

Notes

  • The second part of Season 2 has been aired in UK before USA, and "A Matter of Time" has been aired before "The Fifth Race" yet, as a common rule on Semantic Stargate Wiki, it's the US diffusion that matters.
  • On DVD releases, "A Matter of Time" has been switched with "The Fifth Race".

The Stargate address we can see on screen is the Chulak address as seen in "Children of the Gods".[1] This footage has been obviously used to save money. In "2001", where this address has been given to the Aschen to trick them, the coordinate data have been retconed.[2]
