It appears that relations between the U.S. and Russia are strained, with the Russians believing that the U.S. administration has been compromised. Daniel has traveled to Moscow to meet with a General Kiselev but is instead detained for questioning by a Colonel Chernovshev, who insists on taking a sample of Daniel’s blood. Chernoshev insists that an American assassin was out to kill Kiselev but was captured before he could do so. Daniel is incredulous, but Chernoshev shows him that the assassin is none other than former U.S. Vice President Robert Kinsey, who is most definitely not himself these days. Meanwhile O'Neill confronts Colonel Checkov at the SGC about what is going on in Moscow, presumably in reference to Daniel’s predicament.
