"So what is the verdict Dr Warner?" Sam asked after he had checked the team over.

"Apart from the sprained wrist SG-4 seem to be no worse for the wear."

"What about Daniel and Teal'c?" Sam inquired.

"Teal'c had a small laceration on the back of his leg but other than that I can't find anything wrong with him. Dr Jackson on the other hand has in addition to the cut on his forehead a mild concussion. Right now I'm trying to convince him he needs to stay in the infirmary over night for observation." Dr Warner replied.

"If Janet told him to stay he probably would but since she isn't here, how about I take him how with me for the night. I'll wake him up a couple of times in the night; if there are any problems I'll bring him straight back."

"That would be acceptable." Dr Warner agreed. "The rest of the rescue team will need to be checked over so I'll need the space."

"I'll go and tell him. Thank you." Sam replied.

"I'm fine." Daniel insisted adamantly to one of the nurse when Sam walked in.

"You know it's usually Jack who protested about having to stay here." She crossed her arms.

"Sam I was in that pit for almost four hours, and had no ill effects." Daniel stated. "I doubt I have a concussion they are just being overly precautious."

"Would you have had said the same if Janet had told you to stay?" Sam asked.

"Ma'am, I'll leave him your hands." The nurse said winking at Sam before leaving.

"That's not the point..." He blushed.

"I came to a deal on your behalf with Dr Warner." Sam said letting him off the hook.

"What kind of deal?" Daniel asked.

"A deal that means you can get out of here right now." She paused. "But there is a condition."

"What kind of condition?"

"You come home with me. He wants some to keep an eye on you and besides which I bought some new flavoured coffee I thought you might like."

"Deal."

"I'm going to check on Jacob and leave Jack a note. I'll meet you by the elevator in ten minutes."

"Okay."

"Here you go." Sam handed Daniel a mug of coffee and sat down next to him curling her feet up under her.

"Thanks." He took a sip. "This is good where did you get it?"

"A new store opened last week, they sell flavoured coffee. Hang on..." She got up and walked in the dinning room and picked up an envelope and came back handed it him.

"What is this?" He asked.

"When people go on vacation they usually buy their family presents, but since I was only gone thirty six hours, I had to buy you something in town. It's a gift voucher for the coffee store."

"Thank you Sam."

"I got Teal'c a new hat for his collection."

"What did you get Jack?" Daniel asked.

"Jack's just going to have wait for his present; my plans were kind of interrupted."

"Oh, sorry."

"It's not your fault. But you're going to have to start being more careful since I'm not going to be around to watch your back so much."

"You'll still be able to come out with us occasionally thought."

"Hopefully, just not as often."

"You know we'll miss having you with us, but I think you're doing the right thing."

"Thanks, that means a lot. I'm just hoping General Hammond agrees." Sam sighed.

"He will do, if not we came up with some pretty convincing arguments." Daniel reassured her, and then caught a glance of the clock. "It's gone 1 am we should be in bed."

"You can go up if you want; I'm going to stay up until Jack calls. I asked him to let me know whether he was planning on coming home or staying at the base for the night."

"I'm not really that tired, I'll stay up with you."

"Thanks Daniel. So maybe you can tell me what happened? The image in my head just doesn't do Teal'c falling into a pit justice."

"It was quite funny; he made this noise halfway between a yelp and a scream. He was taken by surprise."
