No Substitute

"Dial the Gate! Dial it now!"
On your marks - Go!
In a race for our lives Hagman was my human crutch; behind us, a horde of very pissed-off natives with spears and dart-guns. My gimpy knee slowed us down - danged spear - primitive but effective.
Thankfully the DHD worked. It wouldn't have surprised me if it'd been busted, a fitting addendum to this SNAFU.
"I swear, sir. I thought they wanted to smoke a peace pipe," Hagman apologized.
The pathetic Captain was a poor substitute for Daniel. He would've known they wanted us for dinner - the main course.
I miss Spacemonkey.
