sgc knew there was a leak/mole working out of the sgc (even more than one perhaps). they didn't know who, so they decided to try to 'trap' the mole(s)... they used jack to try to bring out the leak. of course, he was forced to test his team first.
the gist was the jack would tell this person how disillusioned he was with how the sgc didn't 'borrow' tech (they needed it to fight the goaulds). so when he tells sam this, and says that he's willing to go 'over the line', he asks her if she'd help. when he tested daniel, daniel gave him an unending lecture that jack had to literally yell at him to stop. teal'c told him right out that he wouldn't let him do it. but sam... she said she'd help him. and since he was being recorded, sam was quickly arrested and thrown in a cell.
i had it that sam -after much, MUCH stumbling and resistance- ended up admitting that the reason she agreed to help jack was she felt she could control what was happening and talk him out of it/stop him. (of course, it also came out that she was in love with him and that *that* was getting her in more trouble than anything else

sam was cleared and sam and jack agreed to talk. they found the real mole and sam stayed on the team.
but i thought it would be interesting to *see* (like watching an ep) the possibility of sam being bad, only to find out that the extenuating circumstances were unselfish to the extreme.
sorry if this bored anyone
