"You wanted to see me sir?" Hannah said entering Ferretti's office.

"Come in take a seat." Ferretti encouraged. "Want a sweet?" He offered her a newly opened packet of assorted sweets.

"No sir. I'm fine. Can we get this over with?" Hannah asked. Ferretti put one of the sweets in her mouth.

"What?"

"The part where you apologise, I forgive you and we get back to doing our jobs, sir."

"What makes you think that this meeting is about?" Ferretti leant back in his chair.

"Sir, I've worked with you for three years, when ever you do something to make me mad you make some lame ass attempt at an apology, I accept it and we get back to doing our jobs."

"Is that what you really think of me?" Ferretti asked.

"Sir, I just have a problem when you don't believe in me, trust me."

"Hannah, I do trust you. But there were thirty of the best trained Special Forces in the country against you, the odds were against you."

"The odds are always against us sir." Hannah pointed out. "Sir are you okay?" Ferretti was looking slightly puffy in the face.

"No." He choked.

"Hand me that bag of sweets." Hannah said. He did as she asked, Hannah read the label. "Sir it's got liquorice in it, you're allergic." She grabbed the phone and dialled the extension for the infirmary.

"Infirmary." One of the nurses answered.

"This is Lieutenant Jenkins, Major Ferretti is having an allergic reaction, I'm bringing him down right now."

"To what Lieutenant?" The nurse.

"Liquorice." Hannah hung up the phone. "Try and take deep breaths sir, I know it's hard." Hannah went behind him and pushed his chair out of his office and too the elevator. She jammed the button. When it arrived. "Everyone out now. Medical emergency." Hannah ordered. Everyone shuffled out quickly and Hannah pushed the chair in and punched the button for the floor of the infirmary.

"What's happening Hannah?" Jack asked.

"Major Ferretti ate a sweet with liquorice in it and had a huge allergic reaction. I'm waiting to go and see him sir." She replied.

"So the apology went well then?" Jack joked.

"We didn't get that far sir." Hannah replied. "I guess our mission will have to be delayed for a few days."

"Hammond is going to reassign it to SG-1." Jack told her.

"I'll go and get you the pre-mission reports sir." Hannah offered.

"It can wait." Jack replied.

"I just heard." Sam rushed over. "Is he going to be okay?"

"Still waiting to hear ma'am. But he was here quickly so hopefully." Hannah smiled.

"We gained the mission." Jack told Sam.

"I'll get the pre-mission reports from the computer later. What was he doing eating liquorice anyway? He knows how allergic he is to it."

"It was a packet of sweets, I guess he didn't realise it contained liquorice ma'am. Luckily I was there."

"Guess that compulsory medical training was useful." Jack joked.

"Actually there was a re-run of ER on TV a couple of weeks ago with a person going into anaphylactic shock."

"Don't tell Janet that." He whispered. "She likes to think real medical training is important."

"Are you still trying to corrupt the kids Colonel?" Janet asked coming out from behind the curtain.

"Me? Never." Jack said. "How's Ferretti?"

"He'll live. I'm going to keep him in over night. It was quick thinking Hannah."

"Yes ma'am. Can I go and see him?"

"You all can. Just for a few minutes, then he needs to get some rest." Janet said. "And Colonel a few minutes means five minutes maximum."

"Yes Doc." Jack said.

"I'll make sure he keeps to it." Sam replied pulling back the curtain.

"Hey Ferretti." Jack said.

"Jack, Sam. Hannah thanks." Ferretti stated.

"You know sir, saying you were sorry would have been a lot easier than almost killing yourself." Hannah said.

"Got to have an impact right Ferretti?" Jack said.

"SG-1 to the briefing room." The tannoy announced. "SG-1 to the briefing room."

"We got to go. We'll see you later." Jack and Sam turned and ran out to the briefing room.
