Did you..
Release the adjuster?
Or did you just pry it out of the mounting bracket on top of the intake and pull the cable off the linkage?

If you did the second thing you're laughing just put it back on in reverse order.
If you did the first thing it's still no big deal. Mount the cable in the bracket as it should be and connect the cable to the linkage. With the adjuster unlocked pull the cable sheath back until you just take all the slack out of the cable(throttle closed), and set the lock. Done.
