Victor: April struggled with her mental shield holding the three men. She has a lot of strength... but when the infected Wes and Ed pound against it that strength is drained slightly. It will get worse once Clark looses the battle to the Zompire infection.

Lorne picks up the lead box. He is not sure what it does, but believes it will help them. He has to believe in something.

Ed: Al is looking for his friends too. They should be here. Helping them... protecting them. That is when he gets hit. The zap knocks him down quickly. And the Goa'uld who did it aims again and fires a second shot.

Clark and April: Martha holds the baby tight in her arms as her son picks her up. They fly away from the blackness that enters the apartment.

Down on the streets below, there are few places left to flee. April and Ed have reached the edge of the city with the fleeing refugees. Ed is helping a few children, who are weeping for their parents. One child falls, and April stops to help her back up.

The darkness comes up from behind her... it touches her and... the bond between her and Clark is broken. Suddenly.
