There was a conference call by Gen Landry for SG1 and Jacek. Everyone was curious about the meeting since there seemed to be no major danger to earth and anything that concerned Jacek was speculation anyway. Everyone was pleasant entering the conference room, especially Jacek. However when Daniel and Vala entered, Vala seemed to avert her eyes from Jacek and sat on the opposite side of him. She stayed close to Daniel and Jacek tried to make polite conversation, but Vala seemed to only answer in one word responses. Finally Gen Landry entered, causing everyone but Jacek to fall in to attention to him.

"Oh Gen Landry; I'm so glad we are having this little meeting of sorts. I know, I know, you've heard all about my little movie project. Well it's going to be absolutely fantastic."

"Jacek."

"I'm willing to go 30 -70 on the percentage of movie rights, merchandising, and of course distribution rights."

"Jacek."

"Now, I won't name any names, but I'm sure I can give a little more to my little girl. After all she is partly responsible for me being here and blood is thicker than water, as you Tau'ri say."

"JACEK!"

"Oh, I'm sorry General. I was taking up all your speaking time. Please go ahead."

Everyone was quite exasperated by Jacek's enthusiasm, though they knew that it was probably one of Jaceks schemes, but Vala remained silent thru all of this.

"Jacek, I received a call from one Mr. Woosley. He tells me, you somehow got a hold of his private number and contacted him about this movie project and I'm not quite sure what I heard from him is correct. You care to explain to me, what he means by; speak to the director?"

"Sir; if I may interject. Why are we here anyway? I mean, this has nothing to do with us." Asked Mitchell.

"Ask our friend Mr. Jacek. It seems it does." The General was looking quite perturbed.

"Well, General Landry, trade secrets on how I contacted Mr. Woosley. But I assure you that it is going to be quite the morale booster, when everyone hears about fighting aliens and saving the world."

"Jacek, what exactly did you do to convince the IOA to cooperate with this movie?" Sam asked.

"Indeed."

Daniel was holding Vala's hand under the table. He wasn't the only one that noticed Vala was quite and said nothing towards Jaceks antics. Sam, Teal'c and Mitchell were a little worried since their return to base, that Vala did everything in her power to avoid her father.

"Well, I just simply told him, that everyone wouldn't give a second thought about there being a SGC if the enfaces was put on them being the heroes and that a, similar, SG1 team was just the brawn and not the brains of saving the earth. Of course I would use only alias names though."

"You can't be serious Jacek. Why would Woosley even care? I would think he would put a stopper in your little movie plan?" Cam was a little upset that his movie script was not considered and Jacek's was. He was trying his best not to show his frustrations and wished the General would just say no.

"I think everyone misunderstands Mr. Woosley. He's quite the enthusiast with the movies here. He knows every Cary Grant movie, whoever that is, that was ever made.

Now Daniel had to say something. "You mean you appealed to his sense of movie trivia and Cary Grant?"

"Well he said that if I wanted to make this movie. I should show a more positive side, you might say, to his type of organization. Though he didn't quite say what his organization quite does. Well, no matter. He wanted to, how did he say it. Oh, he wanted to be the heroes for once. He said they are so misunderstood as being evil. I wonder what he meant by that?"

All of SG1, except Vala, shook their heads in disbelief. Jacek had literally had the IOA eating out of the palm of his hands with a movie.

"Well SG1, I'm to understand that Mr. Jacek has the IOA's complete confidence and some financial backing to make this movie to enhance that earth is in good hands on a fictional sense of the word to fight aliens, via the unknown organization, known as the AOI."

"WHAT? Sir, they can't be serious. Woosley and the IOA gave him money to make a movie about them and it's ok? What about the security issues?"

"Col Mitchell, there is no security issues. Who is going to believe there are aliens threatening the earth? Now, now, those other movies like, oh, say ALIENS? Who actually believes there are aliens with long snouts and sharp teeth, running around the universe laying eggs; please."

Gen Landry responded, shaking his head. "I'm afraid so, Col Mitchell. They feel that Jacek is no threat to them, since he doesn't know much about the IOA, and whatever he makes up in this movie is fictional or at least to the public."

I don't believe this. I can't even get my script approved for a little movie, and Jacek gets Carte Blanche from the IOA and financing to make a movie of real events, that I can't even discuss.

"Col Mitchell?………..Col Mitchell?

"Cam? Sam bumped Cam's shoulders.

"Huh…………Oh, well what are we suppose to do? Make sure he doesn't reveal trade secrets?"

"I'm interested in where this is all going." Said Daniel. Vala still had not said one word, but she starred at Jacek incrediously.

"Well it seems that there is a director that is interested in making Jacek's movie, and since Jacek has the capital to make it move. You SG1 have been assigned to assist Jacek as advisors on military tactics, and whatever deems necessary to make it politically correct. You are all going to Hollywood."

"WHAT?" SG1 said in unison.

"Great, great. Oh, we are going to have such fun. I know all of you are anxious to contribute and especially you Vala. Your dad is going legitimate."

Vala rolled her eyes and just shook her head. Jacek tried to reach for her, but Vala pulled back. Jacek was a little hurt, but remembered his deceased wife's words.

No my dear husband. It's not your time yet. We will all be together one day, you'll see. We will all be a family again. Go back my love, go back. Vala waits, she waits. I love you my husband, take care of our daughter. One day she will reveal all, and Jacek?

Yes my darling, my only love.

She needs time. She needs your time

Jacek remembered not to push Vala. He knew from his wife's words, that Vala was holding something back from him, and he would give her all the time she needed to come to him.

"Well, General, if we are thru, then I have much to get ready. I will need some new clothes. These BU's that you gave me just doesn't read, director."

Cam started to say something and thought better of it, after Sam kicked him under the table.

"Ok, SG1 you're dismissed. Be ready to go in 3 hours. There's a plane ready to depart to California and I expect full reports in a few days on your progress."

Gen Landry had to stifle his laugh, knowing that this was the most unusual mission that SG1 had ever undergone.

Sam, Teal'c, Mitchell and Vala just sat there for a few minutes taking in what just happened and looking at Jacek.

Finally Teal'c interjected. "I must find the proper head dress for my tattoo and the warm weather. Will I need much sun block?"
