"So, Daniel. Let me get this right. You had a dream – you think. About Carter's psycho ex-boyfriend - maybe. And you feel like he's alive - perhaps. And you want to do….what?"
"I saw a gate address in my dream. I'd forgotten about it until earlier. It came to me when I was looking at the video footage of the temple SG-15 found on P2X-941. There was an inscription that I couldn't figure out until I realised I was looking at the mirror images of gate symbols. And without me even thinking about it, I jotted down the six symbols from my dream. It just suddenly came to me."
"And you want us to go there. Based on a dream. Daniel, did you by any chance sniff a beer bottle before bed last night?"
"O'Neill, I believe you underestimate the unconscious mind. We have seen the power of dream before, with Major Carter and the Tok'ra and indeed Daniel Jackson himself identified the peril that Ryac and Bra'tac were once in. Dreams can be a most powerful conduit for messages."
The three earth-born members of his favourite team sat looking slightly stunned at their Jaffa's uncharacteristically verbose statement. Looking at them around the briefing table, General Hammond bit back a laugh. He knew better, having caught Teal'c watching daytime T.V. at least three times in the past month.
"Er, exactly….thanks Teal'c."
Daniel's brain seemed to have switched back on.
"Anyway, surely we can send a MALP to check out these co-ordinates at least. No harm there, even if I am completely wrong about everything else."
"Dr. Jackson, whilst I recognise that in the past odd experiences – such as dreams – have in fact resulted in useful information, I cannot authorise a mission based simply on a dream. Whilst we will be sending a MALP, I cannot yet send SG1 to an unknown destination. We will be exercising caution in these circumstances. "
"Y'know, I still don't get what all this has to do with Captain Crazy"
The Colonel looked suitably chastened by the look flicked his way by Major Carter. She returned her attention to the General; he fiddled with his pen.
"Neither do I Jack, which is what worries me."
