"Hi Martin." Sam said as she stood at the bar.
"Sam. Not short skirt night I see."
"No we have to work tomorrow." Sam replied.
"So what will it be?" Martin asked.
"Three Virgin Mary's please."
"I'll bring them over."
"Thanks Martin." Sam walked back over to the table where Hannah and Marianne were sat. "He'll bring them over."
"So how did the Colonel take your plans for the evening Sam?" Marianne asked.
"Let's say he wasn't impressed since he has to spend the night in an isolation room. I left him playing chess with Daniel over the computer."
"How was the mission going until he got bitten?" Hannah asked.
"General run of the mill, you didn't miss much." Sam replied.
"Here you are ladies." Martin placed their drinks on the table.
"Thank you Martin." They all chorused.
"So no husbands, boyfriends, CO's tonight?" He asked.
"They're all busy." Sam replied.
"Let me know when you are ready for another drink."
"We will." Hannah said.
"So what did you do with Colonel Hudson tonight Marianne?" Sam asked.
"He went home sulking when I told him I had other plans for the night." Marianne replied. "You wouldn't think he was an Air Force Colonel."
"The bigger they are the harder they fall." Hannah said.
"And that includes Navy SEALs." Marianne added. "I've seen the tape of your demonstration on Brian and Major Ferretti."
"That was kind of fun." Hannah admitted. "Then he had to go and have a major allergic reaction."
"Didn't he read the back of the packet?" Marianne questioned.
"He's a man, when did you ever know them to read the ingredients list of anything?" Sam said.
"Good point."
Hannah's cell phone rang.
"Speak of the devil." Hannah said reading who it was. "Jenkins."
"Hannah it's me." Ferretti said on the other end.
"I gathered that sir. Is there a reason for you calling me?"
"I kind of... locked myself out."
"You locked yourself out?" Hannah questioned. "Sir, Janet sent you home on the premise that you stayed inside and got some rest."
"I needed some fresh air and I came out side and the door slammed shut behind me." He explained.
"You didn't take your keys with you, but you took your cell phone?" Hannah questioned the logic.
"Can you just come and bring the spare key it's cold?" He asked. Hannah put her hand over the mouth piece.
"You would have thought someone would have taught him how to pick a lock."
"I can." Marianne said.
"Me too." Sam added.
"Hannah, I heard that." Ferretti said. "Are you coming?"
"I'll be ten minutes." She told him.
"Your house is further than ten minutes away." Ferretti said.
"Lucky for you sir, I'm not home." She hung up. "I'm sorry I've got to go, Janet wouldn't be too happy if I let him get pneumonia too."
"It's okay." Sam said.
"Then there were two." Marianne said.
"Looks like you spoke too soon." Sam sighed as her cell phone began ringing. Sam looked at the number for the base. "Carter."
"Major Carter, I'd like to speak to Mrs O'Neill." A familiar voice said.
"Hi Jack." Sam greeted him. "You know my going out wasn't a signal for you to call me, because you're bored."
"Can't a guy just call to talk to his wife?"
"No." 'Sorry' Sam mouthed to Marianne.
"I think this evening is a bust, I'll go and cheer Zack up." Marianne said.
"I'm sorry." Sam apologised.
"Don't be." Marianne finished her drink then got up.
"Give me ten minutes to get home then call me back." She said to Jack.
"Okay."
