Major Samantha Carter was on her way to the briefing when Colonel O'Neill rushed past her and nearly bold her over. She glared at him and he turned around and shrugged saying "sorry, bathroom" and ripped open the mens room door in a hurry. She laughed to her self and continued on her way when the heart stopping sound of a gunshot from inside the mens room snapped her round.
Inside the mens room Jack stood taken aback at the sight of the body of one of the newly recruited members of the stargate program. As he had walked into the mens room he had just come in time to see the soldier fire the handgun he held between his top and bottom teeth. He went to hit the alarm but it was set off before he could and Carters familiar walk came up behind him. She stared amazed at the body that had fallen to the floor swearing a trail of blood down the wall behind it. The trail started at the bullet hole in the tile where the bullet hand gone straight through. They knew right then that the medical team on their way would only need to bring a body bag.
Soon the soldier was moved and the mess cleaned up but no one would be using that bathroom today and Jack had used a bathroom on a different level. All missions would be postponed and by late that afternoon Hammond informed them that because of the suicide, all members of the stargate program would have to undergo a psych evaluation. Although no one liked the idea of having a talk with the shrink, no one argued.
Early the next morning an airforce psychiatrist arrived on base and soldiers where called in order one by one. The psychiatrist started with sg1 and to Jacks luck he was up first.
"Good morning Colonel, I'm Dr Clifford. Would you like to sit down so we can begin?" the short and very sluggish Psychiatrist asked with a grin. Jack thought about a sarcastic remark but decided to just sit and get this over and done with.
"So, you're first in command of the first team? That must be exciting?" he asks opening Jacks file and Jack makes a mock smile and shrug's his shoulders.
"well its got to be stressful?" he asks looking up from the file and Jack shrug's again making it painfully obvious that he didn't want to be there
"Oh come on Colonel, I know I would crack under that kind of pressure?"
"This one of your techniques? You get me to say it's too hard to handle so you can say I'm suicidal and get a big pay rise?" Jack glares and Dr Clifford lets out a sigh and rubs the bridge of his nose realizing that this will take a long time
"Colonel, I've been called in because there was a suicide, naturally I would first try to rule out the usual reasons. I'm only here to ensure that this doesn't happen again"
"well I'll save us all a little time here, I'm a Colonel because I have worked my way there and am trained to handle it, I'm not stressed and I'm sure as hell not suicidal" Jack raised his voice slightly
"You saw him die right? How is that affecting you?" he asks leaning back in his chair
"I've seen lots of people die"
"Suicide isn't the same. Your son committed suicide right?" he asked after a short pause
"Accident!" Jack abruptly snapped and stood up from the chair to leave
"I'm sorry, I didn't realize. Please sit back down Colonel, were not finished yet"
"Yes we are" Jack stubbornly stated as he slammed the door behind him. Daniel and Sam stood a not far from the door and Daniel enthusiastically walked up to the angry Colonel
"That was quick, how'd it go?" he asked foolishly
"Fuck off" Jack grumbled as he stormed past and Sam stared astonished at his remark. Daniel and Sam both turned to the sound of the previously slammed door creep open. Dr Clifford popped his head out and called "Major Carter"
Sam sighed and cautiously followed him in.
The evaluations went by faster then Dr Clifford had originally thought and he soon found himself standing in general Hammonds office with a seemingly short list of names.
"These are the people I think I should see again" Dr Clifford stated as he handed Hammond the list and Hammond took one look at the list and laughed
"There are only three names here?"
"I was as surprised as you but those are the names" He admitted nodding towards the list and Hammond turned back to the list and read the names
"Is this a joke? Short of Dr Jackson this is SG1."
"Well Colonel O'Neill wouldn't stay long enough to finish the evaluation, Major Carter seemed to be work obsessed and Teal'c refused to talk at all, he wouldn't even admit his name and he knew full well that I already knew it."
"I see, well I will assign Dr Jackson to another team while we get this sorted until then I'm ordering that Colonel O'Neill, Major Carter and Teal'c be taken off all off world missions"
