"Daniel?"
"Jack?"
"What are you doing?"
"Working."
"We're on vacation for cryin' out loud and all you can do is work."
"Jack, no matter how much you beg or whine I'm not going to go fishing with you."
"What makes you think I was going to ask you to go fishing with me?"
"Well, for one, you always ask me to go, and two that's what you always do when we're not off world."
"Okay . . . . So do you?"
"Do I what?"
"Want to go fishing."
"Jack, what did I just say?"
There was no reply.
"I'm not going to go."
"Why?" Jack was now whining.
"Oh, here we go." Daniel mumbled.
"What?"
"Nothing."
"What did you just say?"
"I didn't say anything."
"Yes you did."
"No I didn't."
"Yes you did."
"No I didn't."
"Did."
"Didn't."
"Did."
"Didn't."
"Yes you did, and don't tell me you didn't or I'll make you go."
"How?"
"I have my ways, Black Ops remember."
A few seconds of silence passed.
"Did you hear about the artifact that SG-7 brought back from P5X-927?"
"No."
"Well, it's very fascinating. The language is a very obscure dialect of Goa'uld and the results from the carbon dating indicate that . . . "
"Daniel, as interesting as that sounds I just remembered that I have something that I need to do, so I'll see you later."
Jack walked out the door.
"Works every time," there was a smile on Daniel's face as he got back to work.
