Episode 5:
Personal Log: Colonel Jack O'Neill
I have made it my personal mission to see what this guy looks like under that bucket. Not because I care, but because it's become a thing now.
Attempts so far:
Attempt #1: Invited him to the commissary. Laid out a full spread. Pizza, burgers, cake. He just stared at it. Result: Failure. He took food "to go" and presumably ate it alone somewhere.
Attempt #2: Suggested a team photo. "For the records," I said. Very official. He stood in the back and the helmet stayed on. Result: We now have a team photo with a Mandalorian in it. Not helpful.
Attempt #3: Told him the base had a strict "no helmet" policy in secure areas. Teal'c said "There is no such policy, O'Neill." Thanks, Teal'c. Very helpful. Result: Embarrassing failure.
Attempt #4: Asked Grogu to use his weird baby magic to remove the helmet. Grogu looked at me, looked at the Mandalorian, looked back at me, and made a noise that I'm pretty sure was the toddler equivalent of "Are you insane?" Result: Even the baby knows this is a bad idea.
Carter pointed out that respecting other cultures' traditions is kind of our whole thing.
Fine. He can keep the helmet.
But I'm still curious.
