Though it could be, depending on how it was rendered, either hilarious or heartrending to see Jack, who usually places such absolute trust in his team, aware that his entire team has been compromised and trying desperately to convince Hammond and Janet that none of them can be trusted. Just now. Because they're not really them.
You could probably justify it by having them all in a room, and then Jack hears a noise in the hall or something and goes to check it out, and that's the exact moment Daniel pokes something and the semicorporeal beings just needed a direct line-of-sight between themselves and their hosts-to-be, and can't pass through stone or whatever the place is made of. Jack hears the noise from the room he just left, steps back in, and suddenly everyone is really eager to leave.
Heck, if they needed a direct line-of-sight, he could have just been standing behind a pillar, or something.
...it would be really funny if Jack was the only one unaffected, but four escaped prisoners hitched rides back to Earth because some unlucky sap got stuck in Junior.
