While one team presses on to find the treasured mineral the other has another goal in mind. When it is apparent that Dr. Rush (Robert Carlyle) can’t go on Lt. Scott (Brian J. Smith) decides to go it alone and orders Sgt. Greer (Jamil Walker Smith) to return to safety with the exhausted scientist. Meanwhile with life on the ship looking bleak and with the aid of the communication stones Col. Young (Louis Ferreira) reports in to O'Neill and Chloe (Elyse Levesque) has one last chance to see her mother.
