Ignorance was bliss

sidSo I'm writing a story that takes place at Jack's house, and I make the mistake of doing some research, and I realize that probably every single fic I've ever set there was off base in one way or another. From the early stories when I'd send Jack and Daniel upstairs to bed in a one story house, to not realizing the shape of the house and where the bedroom actually is, to misplacing the deck...wow. You name it.
Now I'm shocked to discover that there are two entrances to Jack's kitchen (from the dining room and from the hallway), and that the entrance from the dining room has a pocket door! Possibly the entrance from the hall to the dining room has a pocket door, too. I thought I glimpsed a handle in one screencap. (Which is neither here nor there, but startled me because I did all that research on Sam's house, and she had pocket doors, and I'm left to wonder if that's a Canadian thing? LOL) ETA: There is most definitely a pocket door between the hall and the dining room! When Jack comes home from the store in Full Alert and finds Kinsey in his living room, that door is closed. It's a louvered door. Whaddya know.
Anyway, my little story is pretty well fucked. Er, so just forget that you read this, okay? Because I don't think I can honestly fix it, so I'm just going to go with it. ;-P
La-la-la-la-la
