Why This Must Be Read: This is a bittersweet missing scene set immediately after the second season episode "Show and Tell." Sam walks in on Daniel doing something that she never thought she'd see. It gives a glimpse of the Daniel/Sam friendship, with a few hints of something more.
"You're cutting your hair," Sam repeated, unable to accept what she was seeing.
Knowing Daniel was likely to be awake, still wired from the events of the day and the attack on the base from the alien race Reetou, she had gone in search of coffee and Daniel - not necessarily in that order - only to find the archaeologist sitting at his desk, bare chested, a towel draped across his lap, and a pair of scissors ready to descend on his familiar shaggy, light brown hair. Why the sight of those scissors and the small heap of hair on his lap should unsettle her was something she chose not to think about too closely.
"Yes. I figured it was about time." He shrugged. "If I'm going to be on a military field unit I might as well look the part."
"That sounds like something Colonel O'Neill would say."
Hearing his friend's unspoken question, Daniel shook his head. "Jack's never said a word." He looked away, focussing on his task.
A sharp snip of metal blades - a thick clump of hair dropped down onto the towel.
Carter found she had to swallow a lump in her throat. There was something more than a simple haircut going on here - it felt as if Daniel was cutting away a part of himself though she couldn't have said why she got that impression.
Another snip, another clump gone.
