Daniel sat in the briefing room with General Hammond waiting for the others to arrive. He was wondering how they were going to react. He was sure that Teal'c and Sam would be supportive it was Jack he was worried about.

The doors opened and everyone came flooding in. Daniel sat in his seat doing his best to maintain his composer. Just seeing Jack was enough to make his blood boil. Daniel took a sip of his coffee as everybody got seated.

"So what's all of this about Sir?" Jack asked. He was surprised to see that Daniel was already there. Normally Daniel was late to meetings because he would get so caught up in his work. He wanted to say something to Daniel, but thought it was best not to.

"Dr. Jackson came to me proposing that we restore and fix Reese and I've given my consent." the General announced. He knew that it was a long shot, but if Daniel was right it was worth trying. He knew though that it probably wasn't going to go over well with everyone.

"You have got to be kiddin' me." Jack blurted. This was the most asinine idea that he had ever heard of. There was no way this could work.

"I'm not Colonel. I've already put together a team from the science department." Hammond explained. He knew Jack was going to be resistant, but that was nothing new. He was really hoping that Jack's and Daniel's differences weren't going to tear apart the team.

"Are you sure about this Sir?" Sam asked. She believed that if they could fix Reese that it could benefit them greatly, but she had to wonder if Reese could even be fixed.

"Daniel seems certain that his plan could work." the General stated. He could understand that the others would be hesitant. He himself wasn't entirely sure if he had made the right call.

"Sir Daniel is an idiot." Jack pointed out. He couldn't believe he was hearing this. He carded his fingers through his hair in frustration. There was no way in hell this was going to work.

"Screw you Jack. You don't need to be a part of this." Daniel spoke. He figured this was how Jack was going to react. He wasn't surprised in the slightest. He didn't care if Jack was on board or not.

"General Hammond if this is your course of action than I will do my best to assist if I can." Teal'c said. He was going to follow whatever orders he's given. It didn't really matter what his personal opinion was.

"Sam I was hoping that you would help with analyzing Reese's program." the General requested. He knew Sam was smart and would be a huge asset to the team he'd put together.

"Of course Sir." Sam agreed. If this is what had been decided she would do what she could. She had to admit that it was a rather intriguing idea. She only hoped that it would work.

"So what's the plan?" Teal'c wondered. If he was going to offer any kind of assistance he wanted to know all of the details. Daniel had to have something bigger in mind than just fixing Reese.

"The plan is to repair Reese and fix her programming. If we can do this I believe that we can get Reese to put an end to the Replicators for good." Daniel explained. He knew that he was right. This plan could work. It was better than doing nothing.

"And what if this brilliant plan doesn't work?" Jack asked. There were big risks involved risks that Jack wasn't sure he was willing to take.

"If this doesn't work we'll shut Reese down for good before anything can happen." General Hammond stated. They really wouldn't be any worse off than they already were.

"Fine whatever. Just don't say I didn't warn you." Jack said. He didn't like this idea not one bit. He had a feeling that this would come back to blow up in their faces.

Jack got up and left the room. The others watched as the door slammed shut. The tension in the room was so heavy that you could cut it with a knife. Daniel got up as well and pushed his chair in.

"I'm going to retrieve Reese's body and bring it to the science department." Daniel said. He had high hopes that this plan could work. It didn't matter what Jack thought about it. Daniel needed to try and do the right thing.

"I'll head down to the science department." Sam announced. She would try to do her best. She wasn't sure if it was going to be possible, but Daniel seemed to think it was.

"I will go with Daniel Jackson." Teal's said. He figured that he could help carry Reese if necessary. He wasn't sure how much help he could be in this endeavor, but he would do what he could. He wondered if what Daniel was proposing was even possible.

"Alright dismissed." the General said. He watched as everyone left the room. He could sense the tension between Daniel and Jack. He really hoped that they could resolve their issues.

In The Supply Bunker...

Daniel unlocked the door to the supply bunker where he had kept Reese. He stepped inside followed by Teal'c. Daniel knelt down by her. It hurt him to just see her lying there. Teal'c came to stand beside him.

"Reese I'm sorry that I wasn't able to protect you like I promised. I'm going to try to make it right though." Daniel spoke.

"We should probably getting going." Teal'c said. He helped Daniel lift Reese. Teal'c took her and put her over his shoulder.

"Be careful Teal'c." Daniel warned. He didn't want anything else to happen to Reese. If she were to be damaged any further there was a good chance that she couldn't be repaired.

"I understand." Teal'c replied. He could understand why Daniel would be cautious. He would make sure Reese wasn't harmed.

"I failed her Teal'c I promised her that I would protect her. I told her that I was her friend and that I wouldn't let anything happen to her." Daniel confided. He knew that he could talk to Teal'c. He wasn't going to judge him.

"You did the best that you could." Teal'c assured. It started to make sense now why Daniel was so upset. He blamed himself for what happened to Reese.

"I understand that Jack only did what he thought was right, but I should have stopped him. She was shutting them down Teal'c. They didn't stop because Jack shot her, they stopped because she told them to." Daniel explained. Daniel knew that he was right. He only hoped that others could see that.

"I think you should talk to O'Neill" Teal'c said. He really didn't want to get in the middle of Jack's and Daniel's debate. He began to walk out of the bunker with Reese.

"I really don't feel like talking to Jack right now." Daniel stated. He followed Teal'c out of the bunker as they made their way to the science department. Daniel owed this to Reese. Even if his plan didn't work he could at least know that he had tried.
