Why This Must Be Read: A warming, teamy missing scene from Threads, in which four friends naturally drift towards one another and (possibly despite themselves) find quiet comfort. This leads smoothly into the scene at Jack's cabin, and will definitely make you smile!
They put Daniel straight in the infirmary, which seemed pointless because he was clearly perfectly fine. But at the same time, he had been dead. That made it tricky.
Jack sauntered down there after he had finally finished writing out damage reports. He suspected he had been kept away on purpose - he had a lot less patience than Daniel when it came to unnecessary medical exams. Or what he saw as unnecessary. But he was certain that they weren’t going to find any injuries at all unless they cut open the man’s head, and thus far the doctors had always stopped just short of doing that.
Sure enough, when he eventually got down to the infirmary there were clearly no medical tests going on. Daniel was sitting cross-legged in scrubs on top of a bed playing cards with Sam, who was sitting likewise at the other end. Teal’c stood behind her.
“Carter, they’re cheating,” Jack said.
“I know, Sir,” Carter responded, still checking her hand. “I’m winning anyway, though, so I thought I’d humour them.”
