"Unscheduled offworld activation!"

Sam left her lab and headed for the control room to see what was going on.

By the time, she got there she was told that the new arrival was in the briefing room.

Following the vague answer up the stairs to the briefing room, Sam smiled brightly when she saw who was there.

"Dad!"

She wrapped her arms around him in her typical hug.

Jacob looked wide-eyed at George with his arms stiffly by his sides, wondering why the hell Jack O'Neill was hugging him. Hammond seemed to be doing his best not to laugh out loud.

Trying to regain his composure, Jacob said, "Um, hi to you too, Jack."

Pulling away with a frown and then an 'oh' face, Jack said, "No, Dad. It's me."

"Yes, I can see it's you. Why were you hugging me?"

Jacob chose to ignore the raucous laughter from Selmak in his head.

"No, Dad, I mean it's me. Sam."

Jacob laughed. That was funny. In a really bizarre twisted way.

Jack fidgeted, George still had a slight grin, and Jacob realized he was the only one laughing.

"Are you serious?"

The other two men...well sort of men, he supposed, nodded at him.

"Sam?"

She nodded again.

Just as he was about to ask how in the hell something like this had happened, he heard, "Jacob! Nice of you to drop by."

Jack sauntered into the briefing room, arms spread in greeting, in his daughter's body. It was just so wrong.

"What the hell is going on?"

If possible, Selmak was laughing louder than before. Though, Jacob did sense her growing curiosity to have that same question answered.

"Jack touched something."

That wonderful comment came from Daniel, entering the room behind Jack, who frowned at the younger man.

"So this is your fault?"

Jack quickly faced Jacob again.

"No. Carter and I both touched something."

Yes, that makes it so much better, Jack. Jacob turned toward his daughter...in her CO's body. He barely refrained from shaking his head. One of these days he was going to come through that Stargate and find she'd turned herself into a toad.

"Please, tell me you know how to fix it."

"We do, Dad. We have to wait two more days before we can though."

Jacob listened as they began to explain everything they knew about the device. Selmak had heard of it, but didn't think it was a very useful device. Strategically, Jacob saw the device as a way to infiltrate a Goa'uld base, but thought that using such a method would be too risky.

Looking over both Sam and Jack, Jacob wondered aloud, "How long have you two been stuck like this?"

Neither seemed to want to answer. Finally, Sam muttered, "Four days."

Jacob eyed Jack scrutinizingly. Four days didn't bode well with him. Jack O'Neill, in his daughter's body, for four days. Jacob was pleased to see Jack fidget and look away. Selmak chose to remind him that Jack was probably mortified by the whole experience. With that mental image, Jacob had to hold back his own chuckle.

"So, Dad, what brings you to the SGC?"

"I just came to visit, actually."

"What, no death defying mission, no saving Tok'ra butt, Jacob?"

That was just...weird, coming from his daughter.

"No, Jack. Things are actually a little quiet out there right now."

"Well, you've jinxed us now."

Jacob rolled his eyes and turned back toward his daughter. He really didn't think he could do very well bonding with his daughter when she looked like Jack O'Neill. It messed with his mind.

"I think I'll go visit Mark for a day or two. By the time I get back, you'll be back to normal."

Sam frowned, but didn't say anything.

"Okay, Dad. Send Mark and the kids my love."

"I will."

Sam went to give him a kiss on the cheek, remembered (with the help of a mortified face from both her father and Jack), and pulled back.

"Sorry. Sometimes I forget."

"I can see that."

"Yeah, Carter. Don't ever do that again. I was gonna have severe nightmares over that."
