"Like him, but not a lot. We have to pretend we approve of him if Sam likes him, but if she wants to dump him, we're one hundred per cent behind her."

"Ok. How?" Daniel asked.

"Just watch us, and do what we do." Janet said.

"Or observe O'Neill." Teal'c said darkly. "He does indeed seem to approve of Pete." Daniel shook his head.

"Uh-uh. No way. Jack can't stand the guy. Thinks he's not good enough for Sam."

"Jack thinks no man is good enough for Sam." Janet said, reaching over Daniel for the sugar.

"O'Neill is right, except of course, for himself."

Daniel looked at Teal'c suspiciously.

"Sometimes I think you have a crush on Sam yourself." He said.

"Samantha is over 100 years younger than I am." Teal'c replied impassively, totally ignoring Janet stealing the toast off his plate. "She is as a daughter to me."

"So, if we can't work on Sam, we'll have to work on Pete." Janet said, as Daniel beside her worked out that if Teal'c saw Sam as his daughter, and Daniel saw himself as Sam's brother, that would mean Teal'c saw Daniel as his son.

"Maybe we should tell Pete the family doesn't like him." Daniel suggested.

"Mark introduced them." Janet reminded him.

"Oh yeah, I keep forgetting she actually has a real family." Daniel muttered.

"Or we could let him know we disapprove of his behaviour." Teal'c said.

"Dating Sam? What's to disapprove, apart from the obvious fact she should be with Jack?" Daniel asked.

"He used his contacts in the FBI to gather background information on Major Carter." Teal'c informed them.

"Scumbag!" Daniel yelled. "Not you." He said to Siler, as he passed by the table.

"No, I know who I mean, and I agree." Siler said. "See in the infirmary later, Doc."

"Are you ill?" Janet asked.

"No, I'm going to be helping Major Carter with a new armour to protect us from Gou'ald death rays." Siler said glumly.

"I'll get the burn ointments ready." Janet said, as Siler left.

"Siler was in Hammond's office when Hammond received the call that the FBI had been researching SamanthaCarter." Teal'c explained. "He then told Technician Davis, who had just learned that SamanthaCarter new boyfriend was a policeman from his sister's boyfriend on the police department. Technician Davis drew the obvious conclusion and told me, adding the observation that Pete should be kicked from here back to Denver by an irate donkey."

"We should tell her." Daniel said, once he had finished writing down 'irate donkey'.

"What do you keep writing these down for?" Janet asked.

"Well, you never know when a good insult will come in useful." Daniel told her. "So, are you going to tell her?"

"She already knows." Janet said glumly. "She thinks it's sweet." Daniel choked on his coffee. Once Teal'c had handed him a napkin, and Janet had helped him wipe himself down, he repeated himself.

"Sweet?"

"That's what she said."

"So, ok, don't know much about women, but I got the impression if I ran a background check on my girlfriends, they would have never spoken to me again."

"If you had run a background check on your girlfriends we all would have been saved much trouble." Teal'c muttered, but Janet spoke before Daniel could challenge him.

"No, you're right. If a man had done that to me, he would have been out on his ear. But while Sam kicks ass on the battlefield" she paused as she saw a reminiscent smile cross Teal'c's face "when it comes to personal relationships, she's not so tough. She just thinks it was natural he should try to check up on her, and that he followed her to try to protect her..at least that's his story, and she's buying it."

"She is not buying it." Teal'c said. "She is afraid that if she is not in love with Pete, then she must confront her feelings for Colonel O'Neill."

"So it's hopeless." Daniel said.

"Nothing's hopeless." Janet said, patting Daniel on the back as she stood up. "It's just difficult, that's all."

Teal'c looked up, hearing a humming, and saw Jack walking by, humming 'Always look on the bright side of life."

"Nevertheless, we shall prevail." Teal'c said, standing up to follow Jack. And with that, the Committee to Get Sam and Jack to Finally Fall In Love (CGSJFFL for short) ended its weekly meeting.

THE END.
