[edit] Plot
A camera left behind on P3X-888 records the capture of the Unas Chaka, whom Daniel Jackson befriended in "The First Ones". The camera also records the gate address of the planet where the kidnappers took Chaka. SG-1 goes to the address and discover a planet where the Unas are kept as slaves.
After meeting the villagers, and Chaka's captors, SG-1 learn that the Unas had been the masters of the humans when they were controlled by "those with the glowing eyes", aka the Goa'uld. SG-1 tries to help the Chaka but Colonel O'Neil and Daniel are captured and imprisoned. Teal'c and Carter help O'Neil and Daniel to escape, and free Chaka and some of the other Unas in the process. The Unas' human masters attempt to recapture SG-1 and the escaped Unas. Chaka kills the man who kidnapped him and decides to stay and help free the Unas from slavery.
[edit] Notes
- In Season 7's "Enemy Mine", it is revealed that Chaka eventually brokered a peace between the humans and the formerly enslaved Unas.
