Armed with a knife and using a Goa'uld cloaking device to become invisible, he first killed the Tok'ra Ocker, who had been in a confrontation with the Jaffa Artok. After Artok was detained as a suspect, the Ashrak killed him as well. Jaffa Master Bra'tac found the Ashrak's footprints leading away from the base, and the personnel went out hunting for him in groups of three, each made up of a Tau'ri, Tok'ra, and Jaffa. The Ashrak attacked Bra'tac and Malek, dragging Bra'tac into the bushes while Malek ran.
