He said he didn’t like my attitude.

Said I was being unreasonable.

Well, I’m sorry, but how was I supposed to act?

Those idiots completely contaminated a two-thousand-year-old archeological goldmine – both figurative and literal – and I’m supposed to, what, do a dance of joy?

I don’t think so.

But still, somehow I was the bad guy for laying into them.

I was the one who got dragged aside and told to back off.

I’m the one not allowed back in there until I “cool off.”

Not those meatheads.

I suppose Jack’s got to stick with the jocks, but I honestly thought he’d have my back on this one. I thought I’d proved how valuable thoughtful investigation into the past can be when dealing with the Stargate (not to mention serious riches) a long time ago.

Guess not.

Tell you what, though.

If Jack didn’t like my attitude today, he’d best not listen when I report all of this back to Hammond.

Because I intend to.

Know what else I’m planning?

A very special gift for my dear team leader, who just happens to be my Secret Santa assignment this year.

Yeah, he’ll be lucky to get a lump of coal after this.
