He knows the PIN to make ATM withdrawals from O’Neill’s account. When the Ancient knowledge was downloaded into O’Neill’s brain, he wished to eat a ‘real’ steak, one that did not come from the mess hall. Teal’c obliged by retrieving the steak. On several occasions since he has performed this service for O’Neill. Doctor Fraiser allows special meal deliveries because it makes O’Neill a more cooperative patient. O’Neill’s PIN changes annually at the end of hockey season; it is always the Avalanche season record.
He knows that for months after using the Tok’ra memory device, Major Carter dreamt of Jolinar’s life. On several occasions when they shared a tent, she spoke Goa’uld in her sleep. He does not know how much of the dreams, if any, she recalls; he suspects it is little, because when conscious she knows only a few phrases of Goa’uld.
He knows that Daniel Jackson does not like the taste of figs, but likes to eat them because he associates them with pleasant memories from his early childhood in Egypt. The confection known as ‘Fig Newtons’ is not an acceptable substitute.
He alone knows how much the undercover mission to expose the NID cost O’Neill. He offered his supportive presence when O’Neill returned. O’Neill needed to be reassured that he had not irreparably damaged his relationships with the team, but Major Carter and Daniel Jackson were still too pained that they were not entrusted with the secret. Teal’c accepted that O’Neill had no choice in the matter. It was done. Over a copious amount of beer, O’Neill confessed that of all the distasteful things he had done out of duty, this was one of the most difficult.
He knows that on occasion, when Major Carter and Daniel Jackson are reminded of all he did as First Prime of Apophis, they experience a moment of disgust and revulsion. They would deny it, and they actively suppress it, but he is aware. He does not begrudge them this. O’Neill has done too much, particularly those Special Ops missions about which he cannot speak, to feel the same as Major Carter and Daniel Jackson. He and Teal’c understand each other in this, and share a desire that their teammates may never carry the burden of that understanding.
