PRIVATE MEMO

TO: Dr. Carson Beckett

FROM: Col. John Sheppard

RE: Parole

Hey, doc, what are my chances of getting out of here anytime soon? You've been a gracious host, but I have no privacy. I feel like a bug on a microscope slide.

Err...no pun intended.

RE: Parole

Sorry, lad. Your chances are about as good as my getting fresh haggis around here. I don't want you running about until your DNA is grade A, 100 John Sheppard. And I've already let you use the isolation room for privacy; I'm not sure what else I can do. (Other than perhaps stationing Ronon at your door to discourage prying eyes.)

Please bear with me a little longer.

RE: "Escape" attempt: nice try

I had a feeling you were going to try something like this, Colonel. Having Ronon at the infirmary door serves my purpose as well as yours. By the way, I'm really starting to get offended at the way everyone spends most of their time in here trying to get away from me. But I guess it means you're feeling better.

RE: Diplomacy

You're not the only one who can quote Will Rogers, doctor. "Diplomats are just as essential to starting a war as soldiers are for finishing it. You take diplomacy out of war, and the thing would fall flat in a week."
