SG1, minus Dr. Daniel Jackson, but plus Dr. Janet Fraiser and General Hammond sat in the briefing room.
"I'm reluctant to allow you or anyone else to return to P79-453 in light of what happened to Dr. Jackson." Hammond voiced his doubts to the team.
"General, all due respect," Janet spoke up, "but each of the members of SG1 have had a complete medical exam, including Daniel. I have also undergone the routine physical in addition to Lieutenants Matthews and Shesman. We can find absolutely nothing wrong other than Daniel's current state." She paused. "The fact is, Sir, I think they key to helping him is probably on that planet."
"I agree, General." O'Neill added. "You've read the mission reports. This is Daniel. He probably touched something or did something or... something" he finished lamely.
"I would also agree, Sir." Sam added. "Something happened to him in those ruins. I think we need to go back, figure out what they say, and how that could have affected him."
Hammond sighed. "Alright. SG1, you'll go back to P79-453, accompanied by Captain MacArthur."
"Sir," Carter jumped in a second time. "I think we might need more than just Captain MacArthur."
"Major?" Hammond questioned.
"General, Daniel thought there could be as many as twenty-eight different languages, most of them ancient dialects." She answered.
"Twenty-eight?" Jack asked incredulously. "Oy. The guy we need figuring this out is Daniel." He muttered.
Hammond sighed again. "Colonel, you'll take your team and Captain MacArthur through the gate. Do whatever you need to do to bring back the materials you need to make that translation." He instructed. "We'll work on this end to pull whatever resources and personnel you might need. Be ready to embark in one hour."
