Based on Spoilers for Atlantis - The Return 1&2
"We've had good news from Atlantis," General Landry opened the briefing with SG1 at 01:30. "It appears an Ancient's ship has arrived at Atlantis. Major General O'Neill and Robert Woolsey from the IOC left this morning to Atlantis as ambassadors from Earth. With any luck, they may be able to help us in our battle with the Ori. Keep your fingers crossed people."
"Ancients!" piped up Daniel. "Why wasn't I asked..."
General Landry cut him off. "Because you're needed here Dr. Jackson. Don't worry, if this works out the way Dr. Weir believes it will, you'll have an opportunity in the future. But for now, I need you on your team."
Daniel looked over to Sam, hoping to garner support. But the far off look in her eyes indicated that his exchange with Landry had barely registered with her.
"Sam, what do you think," Daniel tried the direct approach.
"Ah...I'm not sure," she answered, not really sure what she was supposed to be answering.
This was not like her, and she tried to give her a mental shake. She couldn't help it. She'd been with the love of her life last night, sort of a so long hurrah, and now he was gone. To Atlantis. This morning she had been fine with the idea. Now she wasn't so sure. The thought of Jack not being on the same planet as herself was becoming a growing concern as the day progressed. Jack didn't go off world anymore. And most of the time he had in the past, she had been with him. To watch his six. Figuratively and literally (although she'd always managed to hide the latter from anyone's attention).
Daniel saw confusion briefly flicker on her face decided to let it go. For now.
Landry continued, "Now for your next mission...."
