"Colonel, Dr Mackenzie is here. He's demanding to know what emergency he
was summoned for." A Sgt came to inform Jack.
"Thanks I'll be right there. Find Jacob and Major Davis and have them meet me outside the holding room."
"Yes sir." The Sgt left.
"I'll see you later." He winked at Sam.
"Have fun sir." Sam smiled.

"Colonel, why was I summoned?" Mackenzie demanded.
"I need a shrink."
"I'm a psychiatrist."
"Like I said a shrink."
"What problem would you like to discuss Colonel?" Mackenzie asked.
"Not for me. I'd prefer to keep our meeting until absolutely necessary. Throwing my friend into a pad room kind of doesn't improve your appeal doc."
"So who exactly does require my services?"
"We have a prisoner we need you to do your shrink routine on." Jack explained.
"My 'shrink routine'?"
"All that psychobabble, word association stuff."
"Colonel..." Mackenzie was getting annoyed.
"Look he's not talking, so just talk to him or at him. Major Davis, Jacob Carter and I will observe."
"I see. Who exactly is this prisoner?"
"Of that we're not sure and are trying to find out."
"Colonel, he's been complaining about the lights being out since you left." One of the SF's informed him.
"You left a prisoner in the dark."
"Sensory deprivation is a great thing. A few things you should know, he's strapped to a chair and has a Tok'ra memory recall device on the side of his head."
"Jack." Jacob said as he and Major Davis joined them.
"Jake you've met Dr Mackenzie before haven't you?"
"Once or twice." Jacob replied.
"Good." Jack pulled a piece of paper out of his shirt pocket and unfolded it. "Here, when you do the word association thing, even if he doesn't give you a response we may get one anyway so try to throw in the things on that list."
"Can I see that?" Davis asked. Mackenzie handed the list to him. "Where did you get this sir?"
"I wrote it down while I was having coffee with Sam."
"Ah so this is Major Carter's influence." Davis replied.
"No it's my list, she was telling me about some planet she wants to visit and the experiment she was planning on running. So I scribbled the list down. It may trigger some memories I can use as a way in." Major Davis looked at him.
"As my daughter likes to tell me she wouldn't marry anyone stupid. He's a lot smarter than he looks." Jacob said.
"His IQ tests are...." Mackenzie started.
"Classified and bound by doctor patient confidentiality." Jack interrupted. "Let's do this." He nodded to the SF who swiped his card to open the door. Jack stepped in and switched on the lights.
"It's about time." 'Bob' yelled.
"Have to conserve energy when we can. Do you have any idea how much it cost to run this place?" Jack asked. "Dr Mackenzie met our friend with no name who we're affectionately calling BOB until he provides us with another name to go on. 'Bob' Dr Mackenzie. He's going to have a nice little chat and I'm going to watch from the window. So have fun." Jack left and went to join Jacob and Davis in the observation room. One of the SF's entered the room and closed the door behind him.
"You really think this will work Jack?" Jacob asked.
"It's worth a shot." He shrugged.
