Rodney's apartment

- Meredith No, you never assume your responsibilities

- what? I did not come to you, to tell you everything that was done in Atlantis.

- You think that's enough?

- Well, excuse me dear sister, I thought that sharing my work with you, my ideas, sharing with madison and your husband, would be something. But now I see that you have not cared about anything I've done, to re-unite. because you've thrown it all to hell.

- Excuse me ?, you're the one who ruined everything since you slipped away from us, always evading your responsibilities, what about Iraq?

- Do not confuse Jeannie, do not ever say that again.

- And there the gulf, when you get the letter you behaved like a Rodney drink, do not deal with your responsibilities to your family, yourself and your country.

- Think it's easy, hide this ?, you think it's easy to forget everything, Jeannie was just a child when my father enlisted me.

- The only thing I know is that my father will joining the army you, that you were a man and grow and quit music aside. That crazy idea.

- Crazy? It was everything to me, you know that, I wanted to enter the conservatory, only our father heeded the grandfather, because he said I had no heart, that's not fair. I liked it, it was good, deserved a chance, I just had to go and serve barely able to study and finish doctorates, when I was at war, you know nothing, nothing, I suffered, you do not.

- Hey Rodney, stop having this melodramatic attitude, I also had to study hard to be physical.

- Yeah, but you never know what is war, you were sitting in a cushioned seat, knowing that you had the greatest concern was not deliver the duties and grade work. I, I Jeannie, on the contrary carried lives of men and you will never know that, while you sat very comfortable, I was patrolling in armored vehicles in Iraq, full of oil and grease from engines knowing that if not managed things correctly, the lives of people would be at stake, the advantage of being you.

- All I know is that you are a chicken, but at this time would not be having this discussion.

- I just know that if you had not opened your fat mouth, advising them that had returned from my trip, I would not be here suffering because I have to leave Afghanistan to return to the same, I am now someone and have responsibilities, which by the way are few and makes me happy Jeannie, I belong to a place. Finally... I belong to Atlantis, I have a family, they are my family.

- You're an immature

- Not your're immature, it was not enough for you that I almost lost memory and died in Atlantis. You do not know how things are, that is hell. Go and Ask Sheppard if he would go back there, you know you answer no, perfectly. And you're a tattletale in all the splendor of the word.

- I just know, you should fulfill the responsibility that our father left you defend our country, and if you do not .. It's because you are or coward. As you have always been, perhaps you do not realize? You look like a little girl of 3 years!

- How dare you say I'm your older brother, you must have me respect Miss Miller.

- Respect was lost long ago. Rodney Meredith, and you know you should pity that I have to come to you these letters.

- You were gossipy, if you had not come to the embassy to say that had arrived and I could find none of this would have happened.

- They will penalize you and would call martialed for evading your military responsibilities.

- I am no longer military, because you can not understand, and I forget all that, never existed for me. I ordered the retreat for good reason, and now you want me to reintegrate ..?

- Do not give me that story now Rodney, I deal with it you are, Captain of the army, were, you are and you will be what you will continue not hiding more, you must go to serve as a good engineer you are, please !. And you should thank me to make arrangements to spend active to reservist ... but all would be worse.

- I've said no, now you put me in a horrible situation, Oh God in 15 minutes they will arrive Sheppard and Carson, I will talk to General O'Neill, I need to know if I can fix this.

- It will not do, and talk to him and convinced him.

- what? What did you say to him? God, Jeannie!

- The Truth, you wanted to go serve your country, and Atlantis could wait for these six months.

- what?

- Rodney not save you'll go, just 6 months. He understood, what you had to do, serve your country, Rodney ... it's that simple.

- Oh God! 6 months out of Atlantis, so many things .. get out of my room, I hate Jeannie, I hate you, I will make some calls to see if I can save my skin military uniform ...

- Okay, whatever you want, I'll prepare some food to feed the colonel and your friend Carson, and you know you should be preparing some words for both, especially for John.

- Oh God, Oh God, Oh God, Oh God, Oh God.

Jeannie closed the door behind
