More exerpts from the SGC Christmas party reel (for original post, see here):
---
There's a section set to the Scissor Sisters, 'I Don't Feel Like Dancing'. No amount of threats or bribery has ever succeeded in getting it cut.
First up comes Colonel O'Neill, standing outside General Hammond's door and plainly bored out of his skull. He sways side-to-side, staring at his feet. Then he begins to bounce, testingly. Then he hops from foot to foot, getting more involved in his own private game, balancing on one foot and then springing onto the other foot, neither foot touching the floor at the same time (and when now-General O'Neill watches this, he always winces and rubs at knees no longer up for such frivolity). Then, head still down and staring at his feet, he breaks into a remarkably competent soft-shoe shuffle, getting more enthusiastic, more absorbed... until he jumps like he's been shot at the sound of His Master's Voice, straightens, and is entirely sober and professional as he enters Hammond's office.
Next, brief as an hallucination, Walter, Siler, and an assortment of Control Room technicians flit past the Gateroom camera - performing the Dance of the Cygnets. Sam has always thought that the recording might have some use as an interrogation instrument, but she's never quite figured out how.
---
Sam and Janet stride briskly down the hall. Outside a door, Sam stops, but Janet walks straight into the room and flings open her white lab coat. There's a crash from within the room, and then she's back out a moment later, and they're off down the hall - Janet with her lab coat wrapped tightly around her again, and Sam surreptitiously handing her... something. A caption follows the clip. "Unfortunately, the camera in Doctor Jackson's room had mysteriously developed a malfunction, so the other side of this footage is unavailable."
---
As the reel grows and is added to, selected highlights from Jennifer Hailey's final test appear. They'd brought out the big guns for her. A month later she still wasn't a hundred percent sure the test was actually over - or that it hadn't in fact been a series of horrible accidents that were subsequently passed off as a test in order to salvage several careers.
When General Hammond screws with your mind, he really screws with your mind.

There will be further silliness as and when I think of it. This is good to do on my journey home, I've discovered.
