"Carter, your Dad is just like any other guy…only he has more manners than most men I know," Colonel O'Neill explained. "Present company excluded."
Sam rolled her eyes. She now realized that she shouldn't have said anything about Dad going out on a date! If she had kept quiet about it, she wouldn't be inflicted with all the excuses a man has for dating women! She just hoped that the Colonel didn't bring up the sex issue again. Of course, that was wishful thinking!
"All I'm saying is that it's natural for your Dad to seek the company of a woman," he continued. "And Teal'c tells me that the Tok'ra are very passionate when it comes to se…"
"I think Sam's heard enough!" Daniel thankfully interrupted.
Dad dating was one thing. But Sam didn't even want to imagine Dad having sex. That was just…ew…icky…down right gross! She certainly didn't need the Colonel painting a picture for her! What little she'd remembered from Jolinar's memories was way too much information about a Tok'ra's sexual abilities as it was!
Besides, Sam was still curious about who this woman was. Did she ask Dad out on this date or did he ask? Maybe it was Selmak that did the asking. Still, Sam wanted to know who this woman was that caught Dad's eye. The fact that Sam didn't know was…unsettling.
While Sam was grateful for Dad and Selmak living on Earth now she also worried about them. Selmak was still a hot commodity to someone. And whoever would go after Selmak would be going after Dad. The last thing Sam wanted was for Dad to get hurt emotionally or physically. They had been estranged for so many years until he had blended with Selmak. The symbiote gave Sam her father back. She didn't want to lose him and would do anything to keep him in her life.
