The wormhole disengaged as SG1 walked down the ramp in the gate room. General Hammond stood at the bottom, as usual to greet them.

"Welcome back SG1." He said with a smile. "Anything of significance to report?"

"Trees sir, lots of trees." Jack said before heading towards the door. Hammond looked to the rest of them.

"The planet was abundant with many different varieties of vegetation but seemed void of any intelligent life. Basically there was just . . . ."

"Trees." Daniel finished off for Sam.

"Indeed." Teal'c added.

"Very well debrief in half an hour."

"Yes sir."


SG1 were sitting round the table in the debriefing room, they had just finished telling General Hammond what they had found on there mission.

"Very well SG1. Dismissed." He said and left the room.

"This has got to have been the shortest debriefing in history." Jack said as he got up. Sam and Daniel smiled. They stood up too. Just as he began to descend the stairs Jack yelled to them without turning around.

"Have a good weekend kids!"

They would have replied but he was out of earshot within seconds.

"You too Jack." Daniel mumbled as he made his way out. Sam sighed and shook her head following Daniel out. Teal'c watched them go with a concerned look on his face. If his human team-mates seemed unwilling to face the rift that had grown between them, he was just going to have to make them.


Jack beeped the horn of his car loudly at the kids and woman in the middle of his road. Putting on a disgruntled motorist face he leant his head out of the window and yelled; "Get the hell out of the road!"

The kids all turned round and screamed happily.

"Colonel Jack! Colonel Jack!" they all called as they moved out of the way.

He swung the car into his drive and jumped out and walked over to them. There were two old and battered hockey nets placed a good few metres apart from each other and about five or six of the local kids holding hockey sticks and kited out in roller blades and various safety equipment, helmets, knee pads, elbow pads. As Jack had told them on many occasions if they were going to play street hockey outside his house he didn't want to have to be the one driving them up to the hospital if they got hurt.

They all skated over to him to say hi and to plead with him to play with them.

A blonde woman in her mid to late thirties glided over to them, she had startling green eyes. "I dunno kids," she said, "Colonel Jack is getting a bit old you know, he might not be up to it." Jack glared at her.

"Well you play pretty well for a dead woman so I think I can give it a go Tal." He said in an undertone so the kids wouldn't hear him. Slightly louder he said; "That sounds like a challenge to me!" Tal grinned as he went inside to get his skates on.

"Your arse is grass O'Neill!" She yelled to his retreating back.
