Spoiler:
Sam in the forefront and Kerry in the background. I was just so struck by the how different they were. And not just the blonde/brunette thing, although that's the most obvious. It's that Sam was completely covered up in a prim twin set, while Kerry had a figure-flattering wraparound that showed a little cleavage. Kerry didn't look cheap, she just looked freer, more open, more available. So, I'm not surprised that Jack would find her attractive.
To me the set up for that shot said everything about what had kept Sam and Jack apart all these years. She is always on guard around him, but we've seen her looking very hot in civies--but never when Jack is around. I can't remember a time when he's around that she's not completely trim and proper. But, of course, she has to be.
Poor baby.
As for the bed scene: I dunno, MeiMei. I'd like to think it was in place of the office scene we were told about in the earlier sides, but the hilarious German-to-English translation indicates that the scene with Kerry going to Jack's office is still there. From what we have been able to determine, it sounds like Sam doesn't tell Jack and Kerry what is going on with her father. Maybe Jack knows Jacob is ill, maybe he doesn't. The point is, even if he does know, that's not a reason for Jack to stop his social life. I sure don't like the idea of Jack in bed with Kerry (cf cardiac arrest possibilities of first paragraph), but I don't want to get into the blame thing that assaulted Sam's character after "Chimera."
I had been feeling pretty chipper--almost smug--in my shipper thoughts. I had persuaded myself that it was all going to turn out hunkdory and I just had to wait. I still think it's going to turn out well for Jack and Sam--but those pictures from "Threads" meant Joe Malozzi's rollercoaster just took another lurch!

Spoiler:
The German English translation seems to be the exact same info as the casting sides, making me think that their source is the same as ours. That's why I was suggesting the change in location for the discussion. I am also hoping that the scene is a "before" and there is no "after"... That is just Mei Mei not wanting Jack with anyone but Mei Mei... uh, I mean, Sam!!! LOL!
