Thanks guys she is doing better than she was. I just finished quoting 'Sateda'.
Sateda
HYPERSPACE. DAEDALUS. John is sitting at a table in the Commissary with a tray in front of him. He is working on a small P.D.A. but looks up as Teyla comes in.
SHEPPARD: Hey.
TEYLA: Am I disturbing you?
SHEPPARD: No. What's up?
(Teyla sits down opposite him. John puts the P.D.A. away.)
TEYLA: I just wanted to thank you.
SHEPPARD: For what?
TEYLA: For going after Ronon this way. (She gestures around at the Daedalus.)
SHEPPARD (picking up his cup and drinking): Did you think we wouldn't?
TEYLA: He is an outsider.
SHEPPARD (putting his cup down): Not to me.
TEYLA: I have often felt like an outsider among your people.
SHEPPARD: Well, maybe at first, but ... well, you know I've always trusted you.
TEYLA: Yes. You -- and Doctor Weir -- have been very accepting, but this has shown me how far you would go, even for someone who is not from your world.
(There's a long pause while John looks a little uncomfortable.)
SHEPPARD: Look, Teyla. I'm not really good at, uh ... (He pauses.) Actually, I'm ... I'm terrible at expressing ... I don't know what you'd call it, uh ...
TEYLA: Feelings?
SHEPPARD: Yeah, sure, OK. The point is, I don't really have good, uh ...
TEYLA: Social skills.
SHEPPARD: Well, that is why I enjoyed flying choppers in the most remote part of my world before all this craziness happened, but, uh, you should know, I don't have, uh ...
TEYLA: Friends?
(John looks at her indignantly.)
SHEPPARD: No -- I have friends. (Long pause.) You, Elizabeth, Ronon, Carson, even Rodney, are the closest thing I have to a ...
TEYLA: A family?
SHEPPARD (nodding): I'd do anything ... for any one of you. If I had to give up my life the way Ronon was going to, I would.
(Teyla smiles beautifully at him. John reaches a hand out hesitantly and, without having the courage to meet her eyes, pats her hands which are clasped on the table in front of her. He then picks up his tray, still not looking at her and, sighing, starts to walk away. Teyla looks round at him.)
TEYLA: Thank you.
(John half turns towards her but still can't look at her.)
TEYLA (smiling): For everything you ... meant to say.
(John stands with his back to her for a moment, then walks away.)
McKAY: Yeah, it's just you guys left. Well, that was quick.
SHEPPARD (smiling proudly): Yeah. I got six. Teyla got ...
TEYLA: Eight.
(John glances at her, then continues his report into the radio.)
SHEPPARD: I got nine, Teyla got eight. Ronon got the rest.
(Teyla looks round at him, her eyebrows raised.)

I just finished watching fanvid where John said, "I'd do anything ... for any one of you. If I had to give up my life the way Ronon was going to, I would." And then it goes into the song.
Happy Coincidence!!!
