Spoiler:
Jack fell beneath his two attackers. He gasped for breath and twisted away but it was in vain. He had no weapons but his hands to hold them off and in the face of them, decades of experience fighting bloody battles failed him.
He was forced to do what he had sworn to them he'd never do—he stopped fighting. "Uncle!"
"Yeah!" his daughter stooped tickling him and crowed triumphantly. “We won Mommy!"
He sprawled on the cabin floor, caught his breath, and smiled up at her grinning face and the smiling face of Sam just over their daughter's shoulder.

Overhead the night revealed the star-studded universe and Jack leaned back from his telescope. He reached over Teal'c's legs to get to the cooler as the observation platform was crowded with his teammates, all bundled up against the night chill.
As he grabbed a beer he caught more of the astronomy lesson Carter was giving Daniel.
"So it has an irregular orbit?" Daniel asked.
"Eccentric," Jack corrected. "There are only irregular galaxies and satellites."
Daniel gave him a blank look but the approving smile Carter gave him was like a shooting star, brilliant and bright and uplifting of the spirit.

Jack scanned the faces partying at his cabin but didn't see the one he wanted. Sensing where Sam might go, he slipped around to the deck. There she was in her white gown, leaning against the ribbon festooned railing.
"Hey," he said quietly.
She looked at him and smiled brilliantly. "Hey."
The breeze blew a strand of hair across her face and she tucked it back behind her ear and the new wedding ring on her hand glittered in the sun.
His heart swelled at the sight. That ring meant never again would he have to say she wasn't his.

) - you know other than the obvious that she's actually intelligent and classy. She's a shipper too. Gracefully stepping aside and pointing out what the rest of us already know, that Sam and Jack belong together and they need to just stop fighting it and make it happen.
