She wasn't seeing him as Sobek here, that was her fatal mistake. Vala was too weakened to think straight and she was walking straight into his trap. She'd worked so hard to turn her life around, and not just for Daniel (although it had been early on), but for herself.

Now all that seemed worthless, pathetic attempts to vindicate herself of all her crimes, of Qetesh's too. And at every turn, she'd failed. She'd unleashed the Ori on their galaxy, made them risk their lives when Athena came after her. Even the one act that had been selfless where she'd stopped the supergate had resulted in Adria and even having Daniel's consciousness inside her had proven nothing more than the fact she was a seductress. What was it he'd said 'That he cared more for her than he had a right to.' She was a whore, chasing a married man where she should have backed off. Even now, her offer to be host in lieu of Daniel was read as greed.

He was right, she was what she was and that would never change. Vala Mal Doran was a fake and a thief. She felt sick, the combination of the basking heat in the room and the truth that Sobek had gleaned from Daniel. Her head swam with dizzyness and the lack of energy, torn between lunging for him or simply crumpling to the floor.

Vala's body gave out on her, choosing the latter and dropping to her knees.
