Why this must be read:
Then she looks up at him, sees those blue eyes and those dimples and that smile, and tells the normally reserved, controlled CMO of Cheyenne Mountain Military Base to take a hike.
It's sad that Carson and Janet were never able to meet, because I've always had the feeling that the two doctors with hearts of gold and the ability to scare even the toughest military man by producing a needle would have gotten along famously. This story brings Carson to the SGC in season 4, and his first weeks are spend dealing with the mess of Divide and Conquer. But instead of helping from a medical perspective, his presence helps Janet to deal with the events as a woman with her guard down, not as a detached military doctor. Although not the focus, Carson is written really well, complete with references to Scotland :)

“I did’nae mean to startle you,” Carson says, holding up both hands in either apology or surrender, Janet can’t tell which. He even manages to sound sincere, look contrite, which is quite a feat with that little grin of his fighting to make an appearance.
“It’s fine Carson,” she says, struggling to regain her equilibrium, reaching up and tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. “I just… I didn’t realise anyone else was still here.”
Carson shrugs, takes a couple of steps towards her. “Neither did I,” he says. “Then I heard you and Major Carter talking… I thought she might not appreciate my interrupting you, so I stayed out of sight.” He tilts his head then, brow furrowing. “I was’na listening.”
He’s so earnest that it brings a smile to Janet’s face, and she shakes her head quickly. “I didn’t think you were,” she tells him. “And you were right… about Sam.” Because she would have died if she’d known that anyone knew that she was here, crying, and even though Janet knows that, she didn’t expect Carson, here barely a couple of months, to have worked it out as well. “That was very… thoughtful… of you. Thank you.”
