The SG-1 is assigned to protect four diplomats from the International Oversight Advisory formed by Richard Woolsey (from USA), Shen Xiaoyi (from China), Jean LaPierre (from France) and Russel Chapman (from United Kingdom) in a tour to Gamma site. They meet first the scientist Dr. Myers, who is researching the alien bug R-75 that was developed by the Priors as a plague to destroy the crop of planets. Dr. Myers decides to give a piece of his meatloaf to the insects and soon they multiply and escape from the lab, eating human flesh. The Stargate is shut down for security reason and the SG-1 and the bureaucrats are forced to flee to a cave to seek-out protection. Soon the SG-1 finds that the base is lost and they have to find means to save the diplomats and themselves before the destruction of the planet.
"The Scourge" is a great episode of "Stargate SG-1", despite the annoying diplomats - mostly the French one. The plot really recalls those old sci-fi / horror movies and is very enjoyable. My vote is eight.
Title (Brazil): "The Scourge"
