1. The first time Cameron invited him over for movie night. It turned into an all-night affair because Cam actually let him play all six Star Wars movies (original trilogy and prequels). Sam and Daniel sat through the "A New Hope," then made their excuses and left. But Cameron stayed for the remaining five, even "The Phantom Menace." Cameron also made pecan pancakes and they had a spirited discussion over breakfast about whether Anakin would have turned to the dark side if Qui-Gon had trained him instead of Obi-Wan.

2. When Daniel woke up in the infirmary after passing out. The look of relief on Daniel’s face when he saw a familiar face was worth missing a crucial vote in the Jaffa council.

3. The time Hank Landry took him to a Colorado Avalanche game. "I'm really surprised General O'Neill never took you to one of these. He always struck me as a hockey fan," he said, seeing how much Teal'c enjoyed the fights on the ice.

"O'Neill took me fishing," said Teal'c. "After that, I did not want to see his other leisure pastimes." It got a chuckle out of the general.

4. When he asked Sam what Cameron meant by "getting the band back together" and she suggested that they watch "The Blues Brothers." It was even more amusing to learn that Daniel had never seen the movie, either. And Cameron had approved when Teal'c named "The Blues Brothers" as his next favorite movie after the original Star Wars trilogy.

5. When Dakara was destroyed by Adria, Teal'c was sick to his stomach. However, it made him realize that re-joining SG-1 was the best thing he could have done for his people. By escaping the carnage, Teal'c would be able to lead his people once more in establishing a government once the Ori were defeated. If he had remained with the Jaffa to lead through the Ori crisis, both he and Bra'tac probably would have died on Dakara. He was never more grateful that he had listened to Cameron all those months ago.

Nice variety! I especially like the Cam-Teal'c bonding you have going on here. All those movie nights...

(There's another comment for you on this post that wasn't made directly in response to your comment.)

It just seemed like they had a lot in common when it came to movie preferences! Also, I figured that Cam would have been grateful enough to sit through a lot of Star Wars.

that's some movie marathon in #1.

It was the first thing that came to mind when I read the prompt, and I gave a lot of thought to how many movies that Sam, Daniel and Cameron would sit through for Teal'c. Gratitude is willingly watching "The Phantom Menace." ;)

These are all great, I loved all five of them!

"O'Neill took me fishing," said Teal'c. "After that, I did not want to see his other leisure pastimes." It got a chuckle out of the general. - lol!!

Thanks!

It seemed like Jack O'Neill should have been a hockey fan if he spent so much time in Minnesota, and I also felt that Teal'c would love watching fights at hockey games.

I love 1 and 4! They're sort of adorably cute. (Does Teal'c think Anakin would or wouldn't have turned if he'd been taught by Qui-Gon? Or does he play devil's advocate to Cam's rather firm convictions?)

These are awesome! I really loved the first one; I could see Teal'c wanting to watch all six together, and Cameron watching all the way through with him while the others make excuses and leave, hahahaha.

I think all of them are great. I liked how you had a lot of Teal'c and Mitchell friendship stuff here but you also included everyone else. Number 2 is a great underscoring of the deep friendship between Teal'c and Daniel. Great job!
