Outline

In an attempt to utilise Merlin’s phase shifting technology, SG-1 answers the cry of a village pressured by Origin, and they attempt to phase shift the entire area.

The plan appears to have been successful, until the device fails, and the Ori forces begin their onslaught.

Meanwhile, Tomin, ordered to convert Vala to Origin, begins to question his faith in the religion when his views on the Ori’s teachings clash with those of the Prior leading the assault, who is using the teachings to justify his actions.

In the end, Mitchell and seriously injured Carter manage to bring the entire village out of phase using the power source of an Ori staff weapon, making it seem like the Ori have destroyed it.

Tomin helps Vala escape even though he knows it may cost him his life.
