Gen. Hammond was right. It was a long debriefing but they shared some good laughs. When Daniel was talking to Gen. Hammond about the temple him and Sarah found, Sam gently slipped her hand on Jack's leg. Jack smiled and reached down and took her hand. Luckily no one, except Emma who was sitting beside Sam, noticed and they didn't mind. Their moment was broken when Gen. Hammond stood up and dismissed everyone.

"Sir I wasn't finished." Daniel protested.

"That's all right Dr. Jackson, I don't care what happened I'm just happy to see that you're all O.K." Jacob nodded in agreement. As everyone was leaving, Sam grabbed Emma's arm.

"Dad, can I talk to you for a moment?" Sam took Emma over to where her dad was standing. "This may come as a shock but this is, um." She looked at Emma then back at her father unaware of what he might do. "This is my daughter." She watched as her father's eyes widened.

"What?" He asked rather quietly. He looked at Emma who had a smile on her face.

"Hi." She reached her hand out to shake hands but Jacob pulled his granddaughter in a hug. Emma didn't know what to do at first but she slowly hugged him back. Jacob looked at Sam who was smiling at him.

"It's good to meat you." He said straightening up.

"You too." Emma said still a little unsure about what just happened. Jacob smiled.

"I hate to be doing this but Selmak's needed back." Emma looked at him.

"Who's Selmak?" Jacob lowered his head allowing Selmak to take control.

"I am." Emma's eyes widened along with the smile on her face.

"How did you do that?" Sam smiled.

"My dad's the liaison to a race called the Tok'ra." Emma nodded.

"I listened to this part. They're an off sheet to the Gou'lds." Selmak smiled.

"It's an honor to meat you and your grandfather thinks so too. He is very happy."

"Stay safe." Sam said. With that Jacob/Selmak left the room and threw the Stargate.

"Sam, I was wondering something." Emma said as they made their way to the showers.

"What?" Emma stopped.

"Would you marry him if he asked?" Sam looked at her.

"My dad?" Emma snorted.

"No. I mean Jack. I think you two look good together and I'm not the only one who thinks so." Sam smiled at the fact.

"Really now. Too bad it's agents regulations." Sam died inside at the thought. Her face expression changed and Emma knew why.

1 Hour later

"Gen. Hammond?" Emma asked knocking softly on his office door. Gen. Hammond looked up and smiled.

"Come on in." Emma did as she was told. "Take a seat."

"No thank you I'll only be a minute." Gen. Hammond nodded. "I take it Sam must have told you about me." He nodded and smiled. "Good then you won't mind me asking. What is wrong with two respectable airforce personal getting together?"

"Col. O'Neil and your mother." Gen. Hammond asked looking at her with a grin on her face. She nodded.

"They were happy together back on the planet. I thought it was amazing how two people can love each other for so long even though they can't go any further than feelings." Emma sat down with a sigh. "Why can't they?"

"They can." Gen. Hammond responded.

"What?" Emma asked feeling a little dumb.

"Within the months you were gone, as you know by now, Janet and Jonas got married." Emma nodded. "Well, the regulations changed after that. After the President saw how much better they worked together now that they were married." Emma squinted her eyes and sat back.

"I don't buy it." Gen. Hammond smiled.

"I had to pull a few strings but the regulations were changed." Emma shrugged, got up and turned to leave. "Emma," she turned around. "I want you to give this to your mother." He wrote something on a piece of paper and handed it to her. "Don't look at it."

"I won't." With that Emma left. She was happy that her mom could get with Jack but she was also nervous about how that relationship would change her and her mom.
