Paige came out of the infirmary on crutches. Janet had insisted on her using them because she could rip the stitches if she tried to walk, Justin, Dylan, Jack, Sam, Daniel and Teal'c followed right behind her.

"Come on, let's go home." Jack said ushering Dylan out of the room.

"What about our stuff?" Justin asked.

"It'll be here tomorrow," Jack replied.

As soon as they arrived home, Paige sat down on the couch and put her crutches next to her on the floor. Justin walked straight for the TV and hooked up his PS and began to play a war game, and Dylan went for his cars and began to make them crash into each other. The noise drove Paige insane, and she was starting to get a really bad headache. She picked up the crutches and hobbled upstairs.

Jack came into the house half an hour later he had finished shoveling the pathway, he put his jacket on the coat rack next to the door, and walked into the living room. "Where's Paige?" He asked. Justin shrugged and Dylan continued to play with his cars, Jack walked upstairs and went to Paige's room, she was laying on her bed with one leg dangling off the edge, she sat up the second she saw Jack.

"Did you talk to the president?" she asked.

"Yes,"

"What did he say?" Paige asked excitedly.

"He said yes for you and Justin to know, if…"

"If what?"

"If you guys sign a form saying you wont tell anyone."

"Oh, I can do that," Paige said.

"Well" Jack said as he walked over to her and sat on the edge of her bed. "You know that thing you saw, that big stone ring thing," Paige nodded. "Well, that's called a Stargate, you umm… you travel to other planets with that." Paige's eyes grew wide. "And well, we have teams that go off-world and they meet new people,"

"You mean aliens?" She asked wide-eyed.

Jack nodded. "Yeah."

"How'd you get that device?" Paige asked.

"We dug it up…"

"Do you have an alien friend?"

"Yes, Teal'c."

"Teal'c is an alien? He doesn't look like one, is that why he has that funny tattoo on his forehead?"

Jack nodded.

"Wow… You must live one heck of an interesting life."

Jack smiled. "I do," he said as he stood up, he rubbed her head then walked out of the room.

"I wish I did," she muttered. "Why isn't my life interesting in a good way?"

Jack was sitting on his chair his feet were on his desk, he was throwing a baseball up in the air then catching it, there was a knock on the door. Jack quickly sat up then put his baseball into a drawer. "Enter!" Carter walked into the room. "Carter, what do you need?"

"Well sir, Col. Mitchell has the flu sir, and-"

"You guys still can go to PX4-520 tomorrow," Jack said as he held up his hand for her to stop talking.

"Well, thank you sir, but that wasn't what I was going to ask… sir."

"No?"

"No,"

"What were you going to ask?"

Carter put her hands behind her back. "If you minded coming along sir, for old times sake, I know you have your niece and nephews to deal with-"

"Carter… I would really love to, but-"

"Janet said she would watch them, and this planet doesn't even show signs of life form, so-"

Jack smiled. "How much did you bet?"

"Bet?" Carter asked. "Well, Daniel and I did have a bet, but we still just wanted you to come, sir"

Jack sighed. "How much?"

"Fifty."

Jack smiled. "Yeah, like you said… for old times sake,"

Carter's eyes grew big. "You're coming?"

Jack smiled then nodded. "You bet, now go tell Daniel that he owes you money,"

Carter stared at him blankly. "Umm, no, he doesn't... sir."

"He doesn't?"

"No."

"Then-"

"I owe him money."

"You bet that I wouldn't go?"

"Yeah."

"Wow."

Daniel burst into the room. "I told you, I told you!" he shouted happily. "Fifty bucks."

Carter sighed. "Yeah, I'll give it to you later."

Daniel smiled. "Tomorrow," he said as he walked out of the room.

"Tomorrow," Jack and Carter repeated.

"But Uncle Jack!" Justin protested.

Jack held up his hand. "It's for nine hours, that's all," he said. "And old doc Fraiser will take good care of you."

"I'm not worried about that," he muttered. "Can't we come? If it's so safe-"

"No!"

"Why?"

"Because I said so," Jack said. Justin glared at him, Jack turned to Paige she hadn't uttered a word. "Paige?"

Paige looked at him. "Have fun," she said, then hurrying out of the room as fast as she could on crutches, up the stairs and into her room.

"It will only be for nine hours!" he shouted.
