Sometimes Miracles Happen

"What do you suggest we do?" Daniel asked after a few moments silence.
"If it's impairing my judgement, than I can't be in charge-neither can Carter. It's not affected Teal'c or Jonas." Jack began," I think one of them should be in charge."
"That would probably be best." Sam agreed.
"Teal'c hands down then." Jonas stated plainly.
"I disagree Jonas Quinn. This is not a military mission. You understand about this device and how it is affecting everyone better than I; you should have the command."
Jonas was in shock. "What! No- no, no, no, no, no; I'm an advisor that's it."
"Actually Jonas, " Jack said, " Teal'c's right. You're the one who has figured most of this out, it's not affecting you- and like he said this isn't military, it's science. It's your command. What do you want to do?"
Jonas was silent. This was certainly a new turn; him in charge of Sg-1? As much as part of him knew it was preposterous another part of him knew that Jack was right. Both he and Carter couldn't be in command neither could Daniel. And since it wasn't military Teal'c wouldn't really know what to do in regards to the tablet.
"Okay- well." He paused, desperately thinking as to how to go about this." We can't move the tablet, and we need to get to the pillars. The closer we get to either one is going to be more difficult. If the ancients are setting up all of these tests then there will be more. Maybe our best option is to split up."
"But you just said a minute ago we have to work together to solve this. We can't do that apart, Jonas." Daniel noted.
"We can if we're on the same page." Jonas explained. "If a few of us work on the translation and the rest of us head to the pillars. The only way to deactivate it might be if we're doing it from both sides."
"It does make sense sir, if the pillars and tablet are connected the way Jonas and Daniel have been saying they are then the best way to stop both of them is if we have people in both places." Sam jumped in.
"I think it's a good idea; who goes where Jonas?" Jack asked.
Jonas smirked, " I think Daniel should stay here and translate, I'll go ahead to the pillars. Teal'c should stay here as well with Daniel. Personally I'd like to have Sam with me. She would probably understand the technology of the pillars better than any of us. As for you sir, that's up to you. You're honestly needed in both places."
"Nice way of saying I can't help any of you with this stuff, Jonas. I think I'll stay here, that way Carter and I won't fight with each other, it'll be too much to handle."
"Okay. Let's go then." Jonas stated. Picking up his notes he grabbed his knapsack and waited for Sam.
"Uh, Jonas. It's your command. You lead the way." Jack said with a smirk.
"Right." Jonas shook his head in disbelief
"So you're in command- wait until I tell-" Sam stopped talking realizing what she almost said.
"Until you tell Amy. I hope we can tell her Sam." Jonas said quietly.
"Jonas, you do realize that- what I mean is chances are-"
"There's still hope Sam, I'm not giving up on that."
"I know that Jonas. I just don't want you to be hurt."
"Then help me figure this out- I know it's the key to helping Amy. I know it is."
Sam smiled, "Then let's go figure it out."
