Threshold was a wonderful glimpse into Teal'c mind, but his doubts in Threshold were all about Apophis, not about himself. Changeling was the first time I ever saw any indication that Teal'c's inner demons included any innate fear of the goa'uld or any self-doubt, so it was definitely shocking. Avatar is the only other time that particular facet of Teal'c has surfaced, so there was a nice symmetry in that Daniel was his lifeline on both occasions.
