Like you, I wonder what other mistakes there may have been - I'm sure between us we'll catch them during the rewatch!
Spoiler:In "Cold Lazarus", Sam says she doesn't get to see her brother and his family often enough. But then in "Seth" (I think), she says she hasn't seen Mark in years. Hmmm....might have to look at who the writers were on those particular eps.

Sam's life takes a turn in an unexpected direction when she's faced with an unplanned pregnancy. The decision to keep the baby and raise it on her own will alter her life forever. Relationships are put to the test, especially the one between her and Jack. She doesn't know what to expect from him and he surprises her at every turn.

As to the faux pas with Apophis and the gate - I can't rewatch right now, but in my head, I always explained it away that the gate disengaged during the weapons play (if I recall correctly, it isn't shown being on in the background during?) and that Apophis had a wrist device that activated it. That is how I always eplained it away. Again, the writers had not established the laws of wormhole physics yet but I love how once they did, they kept the continuity of it and the entire show. As we get farther in, I'll point out other things that seem inconsistent but then you realize it fits; and see if you guys have noticed them as well.sigpicRamonaThePest (you know, Henry Huggins' friend)

The new scene had Apophis shout orders at his Jaffa and then he (or one of them) used a hand-held device to dial the gate. I don't recall the specifics but I assumed it was similar to the one Teal'c used in Continuum. Still, I really doubt one such small thing could have enough power to dial it considering how much it costs for the SGC to dial out and how they needed lightning (Ernest's planet) and those plants (Taldor prison) to power it up...Unmade Plans (WIP: 11/20):

Originally posted by Wild Flower View PostI think for Sam it was something that she became aware of over time, she seems to have kind of come to terms with it by the time we get to D&C. But I think Jack only becomes aware of the fact he loves her at that fantastic moment in that ep where he shouts 'no' from behind the force shield. For me that's the turning point for Jack - even when he seems so accepting of it later when Sam mentions it on base. The shock on his face, for me, shows that he's not really considered how deeply he does feel for her up until that point. And Sam's reaction is brilliant as well, it's almost consolation and empathy.
*shivers* that scene always gives me goosebumps
I can't think of a similar moment for Sam, but I think in 100 days during the time Jack was stuck, she had leaned her own feelings...
