After explaining the situation to Andarna, she happily agreed to the plan. To get things in motion she would provide SG-1 with dinner, over which she and Jack would flirt brazenly. Of course it meant nothing, but it would be fun for her, none the less. Harry wouldn't be joining them so as not to arouse suspicion, he didn't think the other members of SG-1 would appreciate his company. In fact the only reason that Jack put up with him was because of their stint on an alien moon that had lasted a month. They had… bonded in a way. I mean what brings two men closer together than trying to kill each other?
The meal was pleasant enough, the main dish the equivalent of roast pork. So far the flirting was minimal, just small smiles, brief touches, that kind of thing. Jack wasn't quite comfortable doing this, but desperate times call for desperate measures. So when Andarna announced dessert, mustering up a sexy expression and injecting as much innuendo as he could, Jack O'Neill opened his mouth, letting escape one of the worst pick up lines he had ever delivered since his high school days.

"If you'll excuse me I'm not in the mood for dessert." She dropped the spoon she was holding and stood abruptly, shooting a glare in his direction, as she left.
"You know what? Me neither. I'll see you guys later." And then they were minus an archeologist.
"I need to partake in Kel-no-reem."
"I didn't think you needed to do that anymore, what with the Tritonin and all." Jack was slightly confused. Teal'c merely stared at him and raised his eyebrow, although the latter was almost imperceptible. "Oh." The big guy was bailing too.
Once they were alone, Jack voiced his concerns.
"Look, I don't think this is such a good idea." Andarna simply smiled.
"Do not worry, it is definitely working."
"Really, 'cos she just looked pissed to me." This elicited a laugh from the woman next to him.
"Believe me, your Sam is jealous, no matter how unhappy she is with you right now. Trust me. I am a woman."
"Woman's intuition, huh." Jack sighed. "Maybe I should go and apologize to her." Andarna gave a sigh of her own.
"If you did that you wouldn't be treating her like 'one of the guys' now would you." It was more of a statement than a question and although she was unfamiliar with the term, she understood the meaning. "Besides, we have tomorrow to plan."
