"Dr Jackson." Daniel said as he answered the phone in his lab.
"Daniel, it's Sam."
"Hey Sam, I heard you got stuck babysitting Jack while he's sick."
"Unfortunately. Help?" She pleaded.
"Is it that bad already?"
"He compared me to his mother and acted like a five year old when I tried to put a thermometer in his mouth to take his temperature."
"Sounds about right for Jack. So what's he doing right now?" Daniel asked.
"Sitting on the couch with the thermometer under his tongue watching TV." Sam glanced down over the gap to see where he was. "And if he doesn't stop scratching I'm going through with my threat to tape oven mitts to his hands." She said louder so Jack would hear her. "Colonel what's your temperature?" She asked as the thermometer bleeped.
"Even hundred." Jack replied.
"I'll bring you some Tylenol in a minute."
"Whatever." He flicked channels.
"Don't scratch." Sam warned as she walked into the kitchen so she could continue her conversation with Daniel.
"So did you just call me to complain?" Daniel asked.
"No but this is all your fault you know."
"How do you figure that?" Daniel asked.
"Well if you hadn't fallen down those stairs and broken your leg we would have been on a mission last week and the Colonel wouldn't have caught the chicken pox But that wasn't why i called."
"Why did you call?"
"The Colonel has no food in his house. I need you to either find a store that delivers on the Internet or take Teal'c shopping and just drop it off on the doorstep. I also need my laptop, it's in my lab, but it gets sealed every time I leave the base so you'll have to get the General's permission to access it."
"What do you need?"
"Juice, chicken soup, vegetables I don't know, food. Ask Janet she'll help. I've got to go bye." Sam hung up.
