This is only a spoiler if you don't know the guest stars.
I just love the fact that Jack's love for Daniel is so canon that nobody felt the need to try to explain what Jack was doing at the SGC. He was just there.
The exchange between Carter and Landry might go something like this...
"Well, sir, there's nothing *wrong* with the ship, *exactly*."
"Why doesn't that fill me with confidence? Out with it, Colonel."
"We can't see it."
"It's in orbit. Of course you can't see it."
"No, I mean, we can't *see* it. It's cloaked."
"Colonel, if I recall the specs for the Odyssey, and I do, it doesn't have a cloak."
"*Didn't* have a cloak."
"Meaning..."
"Meaning Daniel, or more precisely, Merlin provided it with a cloak when they took the ship and now I can't figure out how to turn it off."
"Right. I'm sure you'll think of something. Besides, maybe having an invisible ship will be advantageous. We can maintain it with the invisible budget we're going to have once Woolsey gets through with us."
(I'm not sure if Sam was trying to turn the cloak off or was dying to turn it on. And I'm not going to go watch again to find out. Not. Not, not, not...)

G'won, what could it hurt? You know you want to. Nobody minds. Everybody's doin' it. G'won, fire it up again. It'll make you feel so goooooooood.
