Lt. Col. Samantha Carter : Teal'c, how do Jaffa couples handle their problems?
Teal'c : On Chulak, a dispute between a man and a woman that cannot be resolved necessitates a pledge break. It must be requested by one and granted by the other.
Dr. Daniel Jackson : And if that doesn't work?
Teal'c : A weapon is required.

Brigadier General Jack O'Neill : Carter.
Lt. Col. Samantha Carter : Sir?
Brigadier General Jack O'Neill : I never thought I'd hear myself utter these words. I need that report.
-
Brigadier General Jack O'Neill : I'm joking. I don't need the report.
Lt. Col. Samantha Carter : Well, then why...
Brigadier General Jack O'Neill : Because something's goin' on with you. You haven't tried to confuse me with any scientific babble for the last couple of days and that's a red flag to me.

Dr. Daniel Jackson : Most cultures on Earth recognize that there's a significant gap between the experiences of men and women. Among the Masai of East Africa, each newly wed man is required to wear his wife's clothing for a month, as a way of gaining insight into her life.
Lt. Col. Samantha Carter : If only it were that simple.
Dr. Daniel Jackson : The point is, while rituals and customs may vary, almost all cultures put significant pressure on single adults to form bonding pairs. In ancient Persia, if a girl died a virgin, they would go so far as to marry her corpse off before burial.
Lt. Col. Samantha Carter : That's horrible!
Dr. Daniel Jackson : The groom was usually quite well paid.

Pete Shanahan : So, how are things in the galaxy?
Lt. Col. Samantha Carter : You know I can't talk about work.
Pete Shanahan : Sorry. I'm still getting used to the fact that my girlfriend's a superhero.
Lt. Col. Samantha Carter : A bit of an exaggeration.
Pete Shanahan : The superhero part or the girlfriend part? You travel to other planets to do battle with alien creatures bent on galactic domination. Just because you don't wear a tight spandex outfit doesn't mean that you're not... although... it's an idea you might wanna consider.

Lt. Col. Samantha Carter : What about you? If things had been different...
Brigadier General Jack O'Neill : [Sullenly] I wouldn't be here.
