I'm sure it's concern because if he is realizing that they're not really home, he wonders if the others realize it too and he hopes they're okay.

Okay, where are we? Next we should probably mention that when Elizabeth kisses Simon she notices something is wrong. Now this isn't shippy, or is it? Maybe, just maybe she thinks for a split second that this isn't the same anymore.
Moving on. John starts to notice things are wrong and mentions Elizabeth.
SHEPPARD: Yeah – I got pretty much everything you could imagine, don’t I? (He looks thoughtful.)
TEYLA: What is it?
SHEPPARD: I was just thinkin’ again – about Doctor Weir and everyone else on Atlantis.
TEYLA: Of course. I am sure she is fine – as I am sure they are all fine.
(She has moved over to a magnificent picture window looking out over forests, while we get a glimpse of a swimming pool and hot tub just below John’s house. John walks over to join Teyla at the window.)
SHEPPARD: Yeah, I’m sure.
(Teyla takes another long swig of beer. John looks around the house, not looking happy.)
He only mentions her by name, but the significant thing is Teyla's response bolded above. She personalizes her response as if she knows he is worried about Elizabeth. And here if we had been paying attention the first time, is the spot where we would have known something was badly wrong.
I ahve to comment on this. First of all, we learn this is John's "dream house" - something he would like to have. LOL! The guy is a hedonist. And that is an understatement. The place has "I am not married" written all over. Oh, one more thing - when I saw Johnny Cash poster I really started liking him.
About Elizabeth kissing Simon. No I don't think it can ever be the same, and not because of John but because of everything all of them were through during those first months on Atlantis. And we know John is a big part of that.
I like this epi because we get another glimpse in John's personality. That scene where he points the gun... my jaw drops every. single. time.I'm not weird, I'm limited edition.

At this point, I feel that they are just perhaps flirting a bit with each other. Maybe not even realizing it.
John and Liz have a shared experience together - that being the Atlantis expedition. And being leaders in that expedition. I don't think others can understand. So it's natural that they would gravitate towards each other.

Originally posted by Anuna View PostYeah, totally agreed! They start testing out some things - how much they can rely on each other and simultaneously the flirting happens as a natural result of getting to know each other better I think. They gravitate towards each other for number of reasons and that's when the attraction happens, or they become aware of it.

I can imagine them thinking something like:
J: She is smart. And knows her stuff. Hey, she even looks good.
E: That man could turn out to be a real trouble. But he is loyal and honest. His heart is in the right place. And that hair is simply cute.

The Storm and The Eye are two of my favorite eps. I can't separate them in my mind. They run together as one big **sigh**sigpic
