I see that episode as a way to bring the audience into the story. Obviously, WE know Jackie didn't die. Therefore, Sam must have been the one to save her. It works perfectly with him changing history, because no one in the "real world" thinks Jackie died too.

I have a question tho... In the episode where the project funding was almost cut off. (Sorry, I don't have the name right here. Sam leaped into a man on his honeymoon on a train.) AL tried to make him think he was there to stop a plane from being shot down. He was going to use a history book to show the review board that Sam was really back there and was really changing history in a major way, not just one life at a time. Now... If Sam HAD stopped the plane from being shot down... None of the history books would say anything about it. So how could Al use a history book to prove that Sam had stopped something that for the rest of the world had never happened?

AAAAAAUUUUGGGGHHHH!!! Paradox! I just hate that. ;-)
