The last hour was surprisingly dull compared to what happened before. It didn't make captain feel any better though. There was no report neither from Zaken and Rea'c nor Blaze and Brown. They were still reading their lifesigns on the sensors, though, so Black assumed they were just keeping quiet. It was understandable from the latter two, as they technically weren't supposed to be there. The fact that nobody was waiting for what was supposed to be an envoy to make contact was raising alarms in Catherine's mind though.

Finally a call came from Blaze. Once again she wondered just what was the man's attention span, seeing he requested marines when it was in fact scientists who were supposed to go down to the ancient lab. The request to talk to Williams surprised her a little. "Marines ad scientists on their way." she said, nodding towards the operator to send them down, "Is everything going all right down there? Williams should be present on the debriefing, you can talk to him there. Unless you're late." she added the last sentence with a tone equal to a verbal poke below the ribs.

By the time that conversation ended, Ariadne and Idalia made it back to the C&C. Giving them a nod of acknowledgement, Kat turned her attention back to the feed she has been getting nothing on. Even her patience had limits, and the Tolians were dangerously close to making her snap. She almost wished for one of them to blow a fuse and fire on them so she could have a free hand at doing away with them and ending this mission. "The science team is in the facility. No word from the envoy though." she said plainly to update the Tok'Ra on what has been going on, "Any news on our 'guest'?" she asked, reminding herself of yet another problem.
