Why This Must Be Read: It's a bit of silliness related, at least tangentially, to episode 200. It's just the whole team sitting around playing games to while away their time under quarantine. It's short, but very sweet.
It was their fourth day stuck in quarantine at the Alpha Site, and SG-1 was starting to go stir-crazy. Teal'c had hidden the base copy of "Wizard of Oz" to prevent General O'Neill from making the team watch it for the hundredth time that week.
They'd originally gone to the Alpha Site for the finalization of the treaty with the Brakavka, an advanced race who took great stock in large numbers and grand ceremony, so various other allies and all available SG units were attending with balloons and streamers and cake-the cake had been General O'Neill's idea. When SG-1 realized Cam was counting his gate travels and that the Brakavka treaty would be mission 200, the team decided to surprise Cam with their own side-mission. 30185 was to be a reunion of SG-1 current and former members, including Jonas Quinn, who arranged to be the Langaran representative for the event.
The concurrent events were a great success, until the Brakavka's favorite ally and honored guest presented their floral gift to SG-9 that turned out to be toxic to humans...and Jaffa on tretonin. The other teams, Tok'ra delegations, and Jaffa were either not exposed or immune and therefore free to leave, but SG-1 and SG-9 got the full brunt of the toxin and were forced to remain until it worked through their systems. The stomach illness had seemed to run its course a couple days ago, but test results still showed enough toxin to be a concern.
