Sister ???

'This is bull'. This guy was clearly out of his mind. When they'd first met him he'd thought there was something strange about the guy. When he got himself electrocuted by some faulty machine he'd cooked up himself – even HE knew not to mess with that! – Jack knew the man was loony.

That last electric shock must have sent him completely over the edge if the old man believed he was Daniel. Meanwhile, Sam and Hammond were testing his story, asking questions an off-worlder shouldn't know. Jack decided to chip in.

"Alright, describe for me, the dress your sister wore last week, when I took her out." He scooled his features carefully, attempting to hide his emotions. The feeble man replied quickly.

"I don't have a sister, Jack, and if I did I wouldn't let you near her." Jack went silent. Could this actually be Daniel? The general seemed to think so.

"Okay, lets assume for a moment that you are Daniel Jackson; then who the hell did we just send home?" Everyone just stared at each other for a moment. How had they not noticed that the guy in Daniel's body wasn't Daniel. For crying out loud! They'd worked together now for almost two years, you'd think they'd be able to tell the difference!

The three military officers left the room, leaving dr. Fraiser to tend to Daniel, or was it Ma'chello? Okay, now he was just confusing himself.

As he was walking down the SGC hallways, Jack couldn't help to ponder on Daniel's answer to his question. What did he mean by it? Did he think Jack didn't deserve a little happiness?

He knew he was being a little stupid, it had just been a little joke and the sister in question didn't even exist, Jack knew that from the beginning. But still, he couldn't help feeling a little hurt.

Did Daniel think Jack would mess it all up again, as he had with Sara and Charlie? That he wasn't good enough?

'Well duh!' He thought to himself. 'Even you know that!'

He crossed the corner and saw Sam talk to general Hammond down the hallway. She'd probably already found Daniel's wayward body. Suddenly a thought crossed his mind. Daniel considered Sam as a sister. Would that mean Daniel wouldn't let him go on a date with Sam?
