Birthright
S7, E10: While on a mission to P3X-955 SG-1 is attacked by Jaffa forces loyal to the Goa'uld system lord Moloc. Suddenly six Jaffa warrior-women storm in and take out the attackers. Mala leader of the armed Amazon party has been seeking SG-1 and she has the team 'gate with them to an outpost called Ha'ktyl - the Jaffa word for liberation which they also use to describe themselves. There SG-1 meets Ishta Moloc's beautiful high priestess. She and her fellow warrior-women have been secretly rescuing newborn female Jaffa who are condemned to death by Moloc and bringing them to this haven. Ishta and her seconds Mala and Neith tell how they use their offworld privileges to 'gate to other planets ambush Jaffa patrols and take their Goa'uld symbiotes. The symbiotes are then transferred to young girls at Ha'ktyl when they reach the age of prata at which time they must take a symbiote or fall ill and die. The Ha'ktyl women ask SG-1 for weapons food and supplies to continue their struggle and in return offer their services and knowledge. Maj. Carter knowing that Teal'c uses the Pangaran drug tretonin in order to survive without a symbiote proposes this drug as an alternative. The idea is detestable to Neith whose younger sister Nesa will soon reach prata. Teal'c eventually convinces Ishta that tretonin though not without risks is worth trying. She asks for volunteers to accompany her to Stargate Command to test the drug. Mala insists she go in Ishta's place. A fellow warrior named Emta and two others also step forward. While Carter Col. O'Neill and the five Jaffa women jaunt to Stargate Command Dr. Daniel Jackson stays behind to report any news on the tretonin tests that SGC will radio-in through the MALP. Meanwhile Teal'c and Ishta become very close. Daniel tells young Nesa of the drug that can save her life. This conversation infuriates Neith who after conferring with fellow warriors Ginra and Ka'lel challenges Ishta to combat for control of Ha'ktyl. Teal'c tries to break up the fight when Daniel arrives with bad news: Mala did not respond to the tretonin - she is dead.
