sg_wonderlandWe've been discussing this in the rewatch but I thought it deserved its own thread. I read a crack Fanfic that made the case that Jack never deserved Daniel because there was one season five episode where he never even spoke to Daniel.
Here's what I've figured out.
The Fifth Man. The only conversation, if you can call it that, is Daniel snarking about being shot by the zat Jack gave Tyler.
48 Hours. Bupkis. Both in the same room but no actual words exchanged. Daniel spends most of his time schmoozing with the Russians. And at the end when Teal'c is rescued from the gate, Sam and Jack rush down to the gateroom but Daniel doesn't.
Summit. Jack makes a crack to Daniel about the Tok'ra at the beginning but it's crickets after that.
Last Stand. Another no. Granted, they spend most of this episode apart....wait, I'm starting to sense a trend here.
The Sentinel. Jack makes a remark about the length of the traitors prison time. And that's all. They do spend most of the episode separated, Jack goes to the city, Daniel goes to the cave.
Revelations. No interaction here, what with Daniel being dead and all.
The other episodes did have interaction, some minimal but at least there were words exchanged.
But breaking it down like this, you see that there was a lot of Daniel being separated from his team. You do the math.
