Happy Birthday, Tealc!
It is not my birth day. Jaffa do not have birth days.
Well, you do now.
I do not understand, ONeill.
Tealc, we all feel that we should celebrate your birthday. Weve celebrated mine and Daniels and Jacks. Its your turn now.
What happens to one on this birth day?
Tealc, in our culture a birthday is a day to celebrate the day when someone was born. We use it to count our age.
I am a hundred and one years of age.
We know, Tealc. Now you are a hundred and two.
I see, Captain Carter.
So Tealc, were going to take you out tonight. About time I showed you more of this world, and tonight well see great... ah... culture, as Daniel would put it.
Jack, culture isnt really the correct term...
Hey, yeah, whatever. Tealc, meet us at the front entrance at 1900 hours.
I will do as ordered.
Sir, is this a good idea?
Wasnt it your idea, Sam? And for the fortieth time tonight, call me Jack!
Sorry, uh, Jack. Old habits die hard. Answer my question.
How should I know if its a good idea? We have to celebrate his birthday somehow.
Well... I guess its too late now. Half of the SGC is already there, setting up.
We rented the whole place?
Yes, s...Jack.
I hope Ill be with Daniel for this... he he he.
Why, s...Jack?
Oh, its a great thing to beat him at every sport.
For his sake I hope you are on different teams.
Gee Sam, youre no fun.
Where are we going, ONeill, Captain Carter? Where is Daniel Jackson?
Were going to a special place, Tealc. Daniels already there.
I see.
Were almost there... Here we are, Tealc! The place we will celebrate! The bowling alley.
What is a bowling?
Its a sport, Tealc. You roll this ball down an ally and knock down pins. Whoever knocks down the most pins wins.
There was a game like that on Chulak. We called it Downpin.
Uh huh... After you, Tealc...
SURPRISE!
ONeill, what are all these people here for?
Hello, son. Were here to celebrate your birthday.
Hello, Mr. Tealc. Happy Birthday!
Thank you.
Whew! That was some night, huh, Tealc?
It was indeed some night.
S...Jack, did you win in your ally?
What? Daniel, is your apartment a left or right at these lights?
Right. Sam, did you win? Its too bad we were all in different allies.
Actually, I think it was good. I tied for first, with General Hammond.
The teddybear can bowl? I never knew that. Tealc, did you win?
I indeed won. I knocked down all pins each time.
Wow! Tealc, ever considered dropping out of the Stargate program and becoming a professional bowler?
No. Why?
Never mind, Tealc. So Danny, howd you do? Its okay if you dont want to tell us.
As a matter of fact, I won. By a long shot. Those airmen cant roll to save their lives.
You won a game, Danny?!
What about you Jack? You never told us if you won.
Yeah, um, Jack. Who was on your ally anyway?
Janet Fraiser, Johnson, some other nameless people...
Win or lose, Jack? Huh? Huh?
Calm down, Daniel.
Jack, would you please answer the question?
Well, no, I mean, I, uh, I dont want to embarrass the Doc. Right or left?
Left. Hah! Yeah right.
Right?
No, left!
Left?
Right.
Wait a minute!
Just go left!
Fine.
So Jack, you won?
Well, I didnt say that...
So you lost?
Well, um, well, I was second.
Hah! So, Colonel, not so wonderful as we thought are we?
I won a game that Jack didnt?
Theres a first and last time for everything, Daniel.
It is very humorous that we all won except for ONeill.
Thank you, Tealc. Im glad youre humored.
Just dont forget why we went there, Jack.
Yeah fine. Heres your apartment, Daniel. See ya Monday.
Bye Jack, bye Sam.
Bye Daniel!
Happy Birthday, Tealc!
And they all lived happily ever after... At least until Tealc next birthday, when they took him to a fashion show.
