Daniel's been holed up in his room with research for a while.

But archaeologist cannot live on intellectual stimulation alone, and so, after finally actually eating something, he's heading back to his room with a large thermos full of coffee.

How predictable.

Janet has just left room seven to see if she could find Daniel. She heads toward the steps that lead to the bar when she sees Daniel walking along the hallway toward her. She quickens her pace slightly.

"Daniel, are you busy? I need some help with Sam," she says, the worry in her voice noticeable.

Daniel looks up at her, startled.

"Janet! No, of course I'll help, what's wrong with her?"

Falling into step beside Janet, rushing down a hallway, worrying over Sam. This feels...really very familiar.

"I think she's in shock," Janet replies quickly. "Though I get the feeling that there's something she's not telling me. She hasn't eaten in three days and I'm pretty sure she's not getting any sleep. She won't talk to me because she said I'm the only one she can't talk to."

Janet shrugs. "I'm just hoping that she'll talk to you instead. I need to know what's wrong with her and she won't tell me."

Daniel cringes.

He can guess.

"...Janet...I might need to talk to her alone, to get her to cooperate."

Janet nods. "Of course. She probably won't talk to you if I'm in the room, anyway.

Janet stops outside of her and Sam's room.

"I'm really worried about her, Daniel," Janet says quietly, "It's so unlike her to be this way."

"I'll talk to her, Janet," Daniel says, also quietly, and gives her shoulder a reassuring pat before opening the door to their room and looking for Sam.
