Teal’c nodded. “The Tau’ri do mention aspects of their popular culture quite often in conversation.”
“All the time!” said Cassandra. “I mean, the current stuff I understand. Janet - Mom - lets me watch TV and go to the mall and stuff. It’s the old stuff I don’t know, the stuff I was supposed to watch or do as a kid, and couldn’t because I grew up on another planet. Like… like nursery rhymes, and kids’ books, and Sesame Street.”
Teal’c had heard people at the SGC mention the last one, a children’s educational program, so he said, “Perhaps O’Neill would be willing drive us to see the Sesame Street.”
As he’d hoped, she giggled. “It’s a show, Teal’c. For little kids, about the alphabet and learning to count.”
He nodded, hiding a smile. “Perhaps it is not too late for some of those experiences, Cassandra-Fraiser. I would also like to learn more about the world I have chosen, and would be happy to explore Earth culture with you.”
“Really?” she said, grinning. “Then we’re going to need help.”
