"Colonel." Jelan said as Jack marched past her. "Colonel O'Neill please wait."
"I'm not in the mood to play Tok'ra games today." Jack replied.
"Dr Jackson, Teal'c. Please understand." Jelan said.
"He's not in a mood to be stopped." Daniel simply shrugged.
"I indeed concur with Daniel Jackson." Teal'c agreed.
"The High Council can not be disturbed once they are in session." Jelan insisted.
"Do you really think a little thing like that is going to stop him?" Daniel asked.
"Daniel when you're done with the small talk, I need Jelan to activate the rings." Jack's voice crackled over the radio.
"We're coming Jack." Daniel responded. "Jelan this is important."
"Very well." Jelan agreed.
"About time." Jack muttered as they joined him at the location of the rings.
Jelan activated the rings and they beamed down into the Tok'ra tunnels.
"Right." Jack said looking around before stomping off.
"Jack." Daniel called after him.
"Daniel, you're not going to stop me." Jack called over his shoulder.
"I'm not trying to stop you, but the High Council chamber is the other way."
"I knew that." Jack said before marching back past Daniel and Teal'c, who dutifully followed him.
Jack stopped when he reached a crossroads of tunnels.
"Daniel." He prompted.
"Left, then the third right." Daniel supplied.
"Thank you." Jack muttered and followed Daniel's directions.
When he reached the High Council chamber there were two Tok'ra stood guard.
"Oh fellas you really don't want to stop me going in there do you?" Jack asked.
"No one may enter while the High Council is in session, even the Tau'ri." One of them stated adamantly.
"Guys, I'm not in the mood. Either you let me through or I shoot you." Jack said.
Both Daniel and Teal'c nodded to let them know he was serious.
"You still may not enter." The other guard stated.
"Bad idea guys." Jack knocked their heads together and they both collapsed to the floor passed out. He stepped over them and walked into the chamber. Daniel and Teal'c looked at each other before stepping over them to follow. "Hey guys sorry to interrupt and all." Jack announced.
"Colonel O'Neill." Perseus said. "This is an unexpected visit."
"Yeah sorry to drop by unannounced and spoil the party."
"Teal'c, Dr Jackson. However this is an inopportune time for a visit. We are conducting a closed meeting of the high council, the guards outside should have informed you of that."
"Yeah, Jelly mentioned that you were busy."
"Jelan." Daniel corrected.
"Whatever. And the guards are going to need some aspirin; they'll have a little headache when they wake up."
"Jack what's going on?" Jacob asked.
"I need your help and Jell-O told you were tied up. But this is important."
"Jelan." Daniel supplied.
"I really don't care." Jack said.
"What happened Jack?"
"It's Sam." Jack replied.
"What about Sam? What happened to her?"
"She's got some kind of retrovirus. The cure will kill her because of what Jollinar did to her. Janet has no idea what to do right now. We need your help." Jack explained.
"How bad is it?" Jacob asked.
"She passed out and hasn't woken up. She's burning up and anything Janet is giving her isn't working."
"Perseus, I'm sorry I need to leave." Jacob said.
"Selmac..." Perseus started.
"She is my daughter. I have to help her." Jacob interrupted. "Family is very important to the people of Earth." Jacob bowed his head.
"Perseus, Jacob is gravely concerned for Samantha's health. He would not be able to continue now that he has the knowledge of his daughter's state of health." Selmac said.
"Very well." Perseus agreed. "We will continue when you return."
"Thank you." Jacob replied. "Let's go."
"Nice to see you guys, we'll drop by real soon." Jack said.
"Jack, let's just go." Daniel whispered.
"I didn't think you were serious when you said they would need aspirin when the woke up." Jacob said as he stepped over the fallen bodies of the two Tok'ra.
"They indeed are most fortunate at first O'Neill threatened to shoot them if they did not let him past." Teal'c replied.
"Let's get out of here before you injure anyone else Jack." Jacob said.
