If you happen to have difficulty taking the back cover off the phone, (I know I sure did) slide the bottom gray rectangular plastic piece down and the take off the "GALAXY S" backplate. Remove the battery and your nephew's SIM and place your's into it. Place the battery back in and secure the cover back on.

Take your nephew's SIM card out of your phone. Sounds like someone made a switch...

No, the SIM is your identity on AT&T network. You don't take anything out of it. You take it with you. Which ever phone has your SIM card, that's your phone. Go swap your SIM card back and put into your phone.
Think it as your driver's license. You don't leave it with anyone else. You take it WITH you all the time. It is your one and only ID for using AT&T network until a new one is registered for you (then the old one will be non-functional).

Open the back of your Captivate. On top of the battery, next to camera is a little white plastic card with AT&T logo on it plugged into a slot. This is called SIM card. You need take the battery out in order to slide out the SIM card. Get your SIM card out of the other phone and slide into your Captivate.
