I really don't know where this came from, but I'm sure that the sugar I had before writing it is largely at fault. Hope someone out there enjoys it, though.

Disclaimer: I don't own Stargate or affiliated characters…not yet, anyhow.

"Okay, let's go over this one more time," said Daniel slowly. "Sam has a doctorate in Astrophysics - a field that requires a more than passing knowledge of where hundreds of star systems are."

"Right."

"And she was the one who managed to calculate the possible number of combinations the Stargate allows for, telling us how many worlds it may be possible for us to visit in the entire cosmos."

"Uh huh."

"And she can do amazing things with numbers and figures in her head, including remember the 'addresses' of hundreds of planets."

"Yes."

"Then why, exactly, don't you trust her interpretation of a street map?"

Jack glared at Daniel, who was leaning into the front seat of the small car, while trying to watch for an exit conveniently close to a fast food joint at the same time.

"Danny, trust me," he said. "I know where we're going!"

"Where is that, Jack?"

"Washington," said Jack. "The capitol. I've been there a hundred times!"

"You usually fly."

"Guys," cut in Sam.

"What?" snapped Jack. Trying to hide a smug grin, she pointed to a sign.

Thank you for visiting North Carolina.

"We're leaving North Carolina?" asked Jack in disbelief. "When'd we arrive?"

"About three hours ago, Colonel O'Neill," said Teal'c from his seat next to Daniel. "When you were searching for a golden arch."

"Golden Arches, Teal'c," said Jack. "As in…never mind….so where are we?" Sam pointed again.

Welcome to Tennessee…Visitors center next exit.

"Tennessee? We're supposed to be in Washington in an hour!"

"As I was saying, Sir. We got onto the wrong interstate," said Sam, once more fiddling with the map.

"Uh…Jack?"

"Why didn't anyone tell me when we were entering North Carolina? I mean, it's North Carolina. We're going to Washington DC from Colorado!"

"Jack?"

"It's worse then that, Sir."

"How?"

"Jack?"

"We entered North Carolina from the south."

"From the south? How the hell did we do that? And why didn't anyone tell me?"

"Jack?"

"I figured that, by that point, Sir, we were actually heading back toward Washington, so there didn't seem to be much point in it. Especially since you weren't interested when we drove through the everglades."

"We were in Florida?"

"Jack!"

"For crying out loud, Danny, what is it?"

Daniel slumped back into his seat. "Never mind, Jack. It's not important anymore."

"What's not important anymore?"

"I believe Daniel Jackson is referring to the fact that we just passed the last exit for the next five hundred miles," supplied Teal'c.

Jack groaned.

NB: Okay, that was odd, I know. If, however, anyone is interested in more, please tell me…
