Those who are found to have a Goa'uld symbiote or larvae are transported to a networks of caves, and there confronted by a hologram of Thor. This hologram informs the prisoners that the only way out is to face the Hammer and have the Goa'uld parasite destroyed, only the host body can survive. The network of caves have the ability to negate Goa'uld weapons, once inside these devices will not function, but if the device passes through the Hammer it will work outside.

The people of Cimmeria send a message to SG-1, in the hope of getting some help. SG-1 travels back to Cimmeria and face the Goa'uld's forces. They discover a means of contacting Thor to inform him of the problem. Thor comes in his Asgard mothership and destroys those Goa'uld forces that did not flee upon his arrival.
