Ooorrrr. Maybe they are going to have him sing a song to King Maybourne.

#  Guest characters for the episode include our old friend Harry Maybourne (Tom McBeath), Trelak (First Prime of Ares), and Servant (in Maybourne's service).

# SG-1 discovers that Harry Maybourne -- former N.I.D. colonel turned rogue enemy turned loveable ally -- is living well on the planet to which he retired (see Season Six's "Paradise Lost"). In fact, he's living very well -- he's playing the role of "King Arkhan the First."

But Maybourne's planet is facing the threat of Goa'uld occupation. The forces of Lord Ares arrive, led by his First Prime, Trelak. Ares apparently once controlled the planet, and is now returning to reclaim it. Flanked by a disguised Daniel Jackson and Teal'c, "King Maybourne" has little choice but to play along as the dutiful subject of Lord Ares.

Elsewhere on the planet, Carter is hard at work repairing a "puddle jumper" ship -- the same type of Ancient vessel discovered by the Atlantis team in the Pegasus galaxy (Atlantis: "Rising")! The origin of the ship is unknown, but O'Neill -- who is off-world with the team -- is anxious for Carter to get the ship working again, as they expect the Goa'uld's forces to arrive at any moment.

Meanwhile, Trelak orders one of the local people to show his Jaffa the origins of an ancient prophecy, foretelling the defeat of the invaders. He leads the Jaffa to a temple, where they recognize the mysterious writing on the wall ... (GateWorld news story)
