Why This Must Be Read: Early season classic team, great Jack POV, some really marvelous insights into character motivations – really, what’s not to love?
The team, with Janet’s active help and Hammond’s surreptitious assistance, bands together to cope with the onslaught of psychiatric and psychological evaluations. With typical SG-1 flair, they decide the meet the challenge head-on and stare their evaluators down at the mandatory costume party… or possibly they’re just insane enough to actually put a drunken plan into action.
Jack wonders just why Sam owns a whip to lend him for his costume. Daniel, with Janet’s assistance, indulges in a little ruthlessly pragmatic symbolism to deconstruct his own demons. Cassie turns into a Nox, Sam into a rather scary version of Xena, and Teal’c into one of the Men in Black. It’s SG-1 taking the SGC by storm, and you’ll be cheering them every step of the way!
