-Indeed it is not, O'Neill. It is, however, an ancient Jaffa gullibility cure.
-I hate you.
-Indeed.
-And the Jaffa sense of humor.
-Of this I have no doubt.
[enter Daniel]
-Jaaaack? What are you doing? You know we only have a few hours before the time resets.
-It's an old Jaffa headache cure, Daniel. The slight pressure on the eyeballs has an effect on the blood flow in that area. Kinda like pinching your nose.
-Oh. Makes some sense. Teal'c, hand me those two balls near you. I've got a headache, and I've already had coffee and some Tylenol. Maybe this will help.
[Daniel places balls of paper on his eyes, and leans back. O'Neill sits up and smiles. Teal'c performs a conspiratorial head bow in his direction.]
-Ya know, T-man, I may have spoken in haste just then.
-Indeed.
-[muttered] The Setesh guard's nose drips! Gets funnier every time.
-I have found it to be so, O'Neill.
-Teal'c? Are you sure these pieces of paper weigh the same as whatever the Jaffa use? Because I don't feel like they are making a big difference.
-You must give it time, Daniel Jackson.
[Jack looks at Teal'c. Teal'c calmly returns his gaze. Moving, carefully, quietly, and as one, they stand up and sneak out.]
-How much time?... Teal'c?... How much time?... Guys?...
I'm always happy to share the internets. It's more fun that way.
I had to go up and read zeilfanaat's comment because I had come up with my comment, but (shockingly, since one misses half the fun that way!) I'd forgotten to read everyone elses comments! Eeeep! Crisis narrowly averted.
ROFL! That is great! Love it, and I love how you included "the Setesh guard's nose drips"! I am most happy to share the internets too. Hihi, didn't even know I had them until I read we share. ;)

The problem with the old Jaffa headache cure is that it only cures headaches on old Jaffa.
