Why this must be read: Stargate the show does humor very well, but well done humor is a little more rare in the fandom. Spin the Stargate is a wonderful and funny story that you could actually see within the context of Window of Opportunity. The behavior which might otherwise be out of character works in the setting and Buttercup draws the characters in character in other ways.

"It could be an experiment," he said, pulling her into her lab.

"An experiment? To test what hypothesis?" Sam leaned against her workbench, arms folded across her chest as she waited expectantly for his answer.

Daniel thought for a moment. "Um, the hypothesis that we're in a time loop?" he said after a moment.

Snorting, Sam shook her head. "That's not an experiment!"

"It is too an experiment!" Daniel protested. "It meets the criteria of hypothesis testing."

"Oh yeah?" Sam asked sarcastically. "What's the null hypothesis?"

"That we aren't in a time loop, of course." Daniel licked his lips and decided to just go with it and hope for the best. "It's like this. The null hypothesis is that we aren't in a time loop, and the alternate hypothesis is that we are. The independent variable is unusual behavior. Kissing, in this instance, and the dependent variable is whether or not we remember it. If we do, retain the null, no time loop." He spread his arms out wide as he said the last bit and looked at Sam expectantly.
