Ep 1. Flesh and Blood

SG1 is a science fiction TV series that follows the team of Stargate Command, who travel through the Stargate to explore other worlds, make allies and face enemies. Focusing on Season 10, the show starts a few months after the previous season ended. In “Flesh and Blood,” SG1 faces a new enemy, and one of their own must fight for their life.

The episode begins with SG1 on a planet that has been attacked by the Ori, an ascended alien race that seeks the worship of mortal beings. The team discovers a village that has been decimated by the Ori, and there are no survivors. Suddenly, they hear a woman's voice calling for help, and SG1 rushes to the rescue. They find a woman who identifies herself as Adria, the daughter of the Ori's leader, Doci. Adria was injured in the attack, and SG1 takes her back to Earth to heal her.

Back on Earth, Adria is guarded by SG1 and interrogated by Agent Barrett from the International Oversight Advisory (IOA). Adria reveals that she was sent by her father to find the Ark of Truth, a powerful device that can reveal the truth about the Ori and their existence. The IOA wants to take control of the Ark and use it as a weapon against the Ori. SG1 objects to this plan, as they believe using the Ark would make them no better than the Ori. When Adria's injury worsens, Dr. Lam is forced to perform emergency surgery to save her life.

As Adria recovers, she uses her powers to manipulate those around her and gain their trust. She convinces Dr. Lam that she is harmless and that she wants to help them find the Ark. Daniel Jackson is skeptical of Adria's intentions and warns SG1, but they dismiss his concerns. However, when Mitchell and Vala go missing while searching for the Ark, SG1 realizes that Adria has betrayed them.

Meanwhile, Mitchell and Vala discover the location of the Ark, but they are captured by a group of Jaffa who worship the Ori. The Jaffa believe that Adria is the true leader of the Ori and that she will bring them salvation. Mitchell and Vala are taken to the Jaffa's stronghold, where they are imprisoned and tortured.

Back at Stargate Command, SG1 realizes that they have been duped by Adria and that she has led them into a trap. They deduce that she has taken the Ark and fled to the Ori's galaxy. The team sets out to rescue Mitchell and Vala, but they are stopped by the IOA, who want to blow up the Stargate to prevent the Ori from invading Earth. SG1 convinces the IOA that destroying the gate is not the best course of action, and they are granted permission to proceed with the rescue mission.

SG1 uses the Odyssey, a spaceship commanded by General Hank Landry, to travel to the Ori's galaxy. They locate the Jaffa stronghold and attempt to free Mitchell and Vala. However, they are ambushed by the Jaffa and forced to fight for their lives. In the chaos, something unexpected happens, and SG1's mission takes an unexpected turn.

"Flesh and Blood" is a gripping episode that highlights the political and moral complexities of SG1's universe. The episode introduces a new villain in Adria and explores her motivations and powers. The episode also features some well-choreographed action scenes and intense moments of suspense. Overall, the episode is a strong start to Season 10 and sets the tone for the rest of the series.
