Jack groaned and pressed his palm to his forehead. He'd been acutely aware of every single piece of knowledge that had left his brain and into the Asgard crystal. There was so much, things he already knew and some that had been in the deepest parts of his mind.

He blinked several times as his brain righted himself and he looked at Thor. "Thor."

"Supreme Commander Jonathan," Thor replied in greeting. "The human mind had evolved greatly if you were able to survive without defying your laws."

Jack nodded, "indeed it has. They are far greater than you realize."

"They are on the path to becoming the Fifth Race."

Jack nodded, "They are but they will need whatever help you can give them."

"Do you intend to help them?" Thor asked curiously.

Jack stood and stretched, "Laws prevent me from helping them, you know that."

"Yet by fiving me an Ancient Repository you have found a way past your laws."

Jack shrugged, "There's nothing against helping our ancient allies."

Thor blinked slowly, like he knew Jack was lying which Jack figured he did since they'd known each other for a very long time.

Jack shrugged, "Alright, I exploited a loop hole. I'll do it again too if need be."

The Stargate activated and Jack looked at it for a moment, "When will you begin your help?"

Thor blinked once, "We cannot do much until we defeat the Replicators."

Jack froze in surprise, "Replicators? You're fighting Replicators? Since when?"

"We discovered them two years ago on one in one of the centralized solar systems. They are difficult to destroy."

Jack wished he'd known they were still around but now that the Asgard had found them and had begun a war with them he couldn't help. "I'd get a start on looking though that Repository Thor because it might be the only thing that helps you."

The eighth chevron engaged and the Gate let out it's unstable vortex before settling. Jack bowed to Thor, waved a the other Asgard that were watching them and went back through the Gate and home.
