I knew something was wrong the minute I stepped through the 'Gate back to Earth. Teyla obviously didn't note anything, but she didn't have any comparison. I decided to leave it alone for the moment thinking that maybe I'd been gone too long and that's just what felt wrong.
No, the feeling didn't go away and I'm currently standing in the bachelor pad I always dreamed of having complete with the Johnny Cash poster I thought I had taken with me to Atlantis. I didn't want to alert Teyla just yet so I pretended everything was all right. I handed her a beer and watched as she drank.
About a half hour later, the doorbell rang. I was a little confused because I hadn't contacted anyone. Once I opened that door, I knew I wasn't in Kansas anymore. There they stood, friends who have been dead for years, before me alive and kicking.
Mitch and Dex.
Even though I knew something was definitely wrong, I let them in. I had to. I had to see them and hear them and talk to them even if it was fake.
But after Ford arrived (where the hell did he come from because I don't remember him going through the 'Gate with me and Teyla) and Mitch and Dex kept talking about the mission we narrowly escaped from, I snapped.
Hey, when you see friends of yours who were killed in action breathing and talking, tell me what you would do!
I grabbed someone's gun (have no idea who that was) and pointed it at Dex. I don't care if everyone thought I was crazy, I know I wasn't crazy. I fired off a shot and Dex went down to the floor, screaming at me.
And suddenly we were back in the Gateroom with General Hammond. Ford, Rodney, and Dr. Weir were there too. What the hell is going on?
