Part Three

The aliens give up on the torturing idea when Rodney refuses to shut up about anything and everything except what they want to know.  They move him to another part of their spaceship, which is still on the planet not in space. ("You should have mentioned that earlier," whispers Evil Whumping Girl #2.  "Shush!" replies Evil Whumping Girl #1. "No one will notice!")

Team
Much to Rodney's relief, his team arrive and stun the aliens before anything more hideous occurs.

Team
"What took you so long?" he snaps.

"Great to see you too, McKay," John replies dryly.

Team
But before McKay is able to reply, a Wraith appears from nowhere, aiming his stunner at them.

("What's happened to the stunned aliens," asks Evil Whumping Girl #2.  

"Um, I dunno, they were, er, beamed out?")

Rodney and Wraith
The Wraith immediately takes Rodney hostage.

"Oh great, why me? Why did you have to pick on me?"

"Because you have no weapon."

"Oh. Right."

Team and Elizabeth
The Wraith was about to make his demands, but to everyone's shocked surprise, Elizabeth comes to their rescue!

Team and Elizabeth
"Elizabeth! What are you doing here?" asks Rodney. "Not that we're not happy to see you, what with the rescue and all that, but..."

"I believe what Rodney is trying to say is 'thank you'," Teyla interrupts. "Though we are surprised to see you here."

"I realised that I had jinxed you in true fanon style by saying 'good luck' and 'be safe', so thought I'd better follow you and undo the mess my words caused," Elizabeth replied.

Team and Elizabeth
"You came alone?" Sheppard says.  "Just wait 'til I get back, Lorne is in sooo much trouble..."

"He doesn't know I followed you, John."

"Whatever," Rodney interrupts.  "Can we go home now?"

"Yeah," Ronon agrees.

Jennifer
Keller gives them a post mission check-up, keeping Rodney in the infirmary for monitoring after his terrible, awful, so bad he can't possibly talk of it torturing ordeal.

John
Later that day, Sheppard is back in the infirmary with an owie a broken leg.

("Gotta keep the Shep-whumpers happy," says Evil Whumping Girl #1 with a grin.)

John and Rodney
"How'd you break your leg, Sheppard?"

"I was doing... something heroic and daring," Sheppard says, hoping McKay will leave it at that. Of course, he should have known better.

"Oh, and what was this heroic and daring thing you did?"

"He made this dangerous and ill-advised skateboarding jump," comes the gleeful disembodied voices of Evil Whumping Girls #1 and #2.

Sheppard groans and blushes in embarrassment as McKay laughs.  He'll never hear the end of this now.

THE END
