"Colonel let's take a look, slip of your shirt off." Janet said once he was
installed in the isolation room.
"If I didn't know better Doc, I'd say you were trying to seduce me and my wife might have a problem with that." Jack teased as he took his shirt off.
"It's a good thing you know better then sir." Janet who was used to Jack retorted as she pulled on her gloves.
"You're no fun Doc." Jack said.
"Oh I'm plenty of fun Colonel, but right now I'm trying to make sure you're not going to turn into a three headed monster."
"Being a three headed monster sounds like fun." Jack teased.
"But I'm sure Sam wouldn't be too pleased to be married to a three headed monster."
"Fine, can we get this over with quickly? I have things to do." Janet glanced at the clock.
"It's not on for another two hours and I'm sure Sam or Teal'c will tape it for you."
"But..."
"Colonel. Sit, before I have to knock you out with a zat gun."
"Fine." He sat on the bed and Janet cut off the bandage and removed the antiseptic wipe. She gently prodded the welt.
"Are you experience any pain in the area of the welt?" Janet asked.
"You mean does it hurt?" Jack rephrased. "I got bitten, there's that annoying itching that happens when you got bit."
"When it happened what did feel like? Like a nettle bite? Or a bug bit?" Janet questioned.
"Like getting stung by a bee." Jack said.
"When was the last time you were stung by a bee sir?" Janet asked.
"July 14th 1976 1204 BST." Jack replied.
"Huh?" Janet questioned she wasn't expecting such an exact answer.
"Last time I was stung by a bee was in an airbase in London, on July 14th 1976. It was six minutes before I was supposed to take off, but I got grounded for five hours in case I had an allergic reaction."
"Good memory." Janet said.
"Turned out to be a good thing. Ended up saving the day by turning up late."
"Does this hurt?" Janet prodded further around the welt.
"Would yes be an acceptable answer?"
"Wiggle your fingers." Jack did as he was told.
"How are you feeling otherwise?"
"Just great." Jack replied.
"I'll take your temperature and a blood sample and get it fast track through the lab."
"But I'm staying here."
"Until the lab test results are back." Jack said.
"Yes." Janet quickly took his temperature which was slightly higher than normal. She drew his blood. "I'll be back as soon as possible, there is an SF outside, if the welt gets any bigger or you start to feel any other symptoms have him call me."
"Sure Doc. I'll just lie and plot my revenge."
"You do that Colonel." Janet hid a smile as she left.
"So what's the verdict?" Sam asked as Janet left the isolation room.
"You married a cantankerous pain in the six, who keeps cracking jokes rather than take this seriously."
"This I knew before hand." Sam smiled.
"His temperature is up a few degrees. I'm going to put a rush on the blood samples and monitor him for at least the next few hours maybe over night. I'm hoping it's nothing serious."
"Me too. I have to go and debrief Hammond in ten minutes. Let me know as soon as you find out anything?"
"You're at the top of my list. But you'll be my saviour if you go and find his Gameboy to keep him entertained."
"I'll go and get it."
"Thanks Sam."
