*sighs*

Daedalus, we're ready to go if you need to get out of here

*Pats the antelope on the head.*

I'm sorry, baby, we'll try and find your family some other time.

[Caldwell] We can stay for another hour tops

Pete, remind me to never let you alone with matches.

*shakes some rubble off his gear*

*Thinks, and looks at the antelope.*

/\/I've got a beaming transponder on me. Give me 20 minutes, and I'll be ready to go./\/

*To LeRue and Pete*

I'm going to collect some vegetation samples. If we can't figure out where the antelope are, we can't give him much of a chance of survival until we know more.

[Caldwell] Ok but if we hit trouble we'll have no choice

I'll head with you if thats ok. no offence but this place could get hot very fast if it comes to the crunch. and i have been to the crunch. its not very nice. and i would be alot happier if you had some backup.

*notes scans pensive suspect look*

Look

*makes cub scout promise sign*

i promise not to blow up anything of shoot anything untill absolutly nesessery. cubs honor.

Have you ever been in the Cubs?

of course. i was a sixer with a gold arrow.
but i got kicked out for building a working crossbow during camp craft lessons and shooting Akela.

Okay Scan, I'll head with you then.

*Looks at the antelope, with particular reference to what it's smelling. Collects some plant samples.*

*looking at antelope*

he/she/wheatever does not look to happy to be home.

No, but we can't keep him in the SGC! And I'm not about to hand him over for dissection.

He/she/it is pretty intelligent though, maybe its ...his/her/ its decision.

But it's not even an adult yet! Besides, we don't know what it eats, what temperatures it likes, what atmospheric pressure- we could be killing it, and not even know.

surly we can get the dedalus to scan the plannet for the same type of species? if it does have any family then we could find them and re intergrate it.

*Rolls eye's*

Oh what a valuable use of the taxpayers money.

Would you rather him starve?

*Radios Daedelus.*

\/\Can you scan for antelopes, or are we out of time?/\/

[Caldwell] We're ok for now, why Antelopes?
