When a group of primitive humans are discovered on a planet in the Pegasus Galaxy, the Atlantis team must act quickly to protect them. The humans believe in a mythical "goddess" who they believe will come to save them from a deadly plague, but when it becomes clear that help is not coming from the skies, the Atlantis team steps in to try and save as many lives as possible.
Dr. Beckett works tirelessly to develop a vaccine while Sheppard and McKay coordinate the evacuation of the planet. But their mission is made more difficult by the fact that some of the humans are resistant to modern medicine and technology, preferring instead to rely on their ancient traditions.
As the team investigates the source of the plague, they uncover a dark secret about the origins of the humans on the planet. They soon realize that their mission to save the humans is also a race against time, as a powerful enemy is closing in on them, intent on destroying them all.
Meanwhile, Teyla faces her own challenges as she tries to connect with Kitai, a young girl who has been shunned by her tribe for being different. Teyla's attempts to befriend Kitai are met with suspicion and resistance, but she remains determined to prove to the girl that she is not alone.
As the situation on the planet grows more dire, the Atlantis team must find a way to earn the trust of the humans and work together to survive. With danger lurking around every corner, every decision they make could mean the difference between life and death.
