ROFL at Pete.....
Originally posted by OmaLOL! I'm sure he wanted to be that close Maybe even holding her hand close.....but I think the distance away he's sitting adds to the angst. For example, I'm pretty sure if Teal'c had shot her, Jack would be sitting closer. He must be feeling a whole gamut of emotions....
spoiler for space...
Spoiler:Regret - because he wanted to blow the entity up in the first place and was pursuaded out of it (no matter how right it was for Sam to try to communicate with it)
Guilt - because he didn't cut the connection to the power supply quicker
More Guilt - because he killed her
Yet More Guilt - because he had no choice. The entity had to be stopped at all costs (because at that time they didn't know it was uploading Sam into the nest-thinggy, they thought it was trying to reinfect the base computers)....thinking back to Rachel's post about how doing his duty as the Colonel affected Jack the Man *sob*...
Despair - because he can't see any way of fixing this;
More Despair - its usually Sam who has the genius idea that saves everyone
Yet More Despair - because of Sam's living will, Jack knows Janet has no choice but to turn off the ventilator very soon - too soon!
On the whole topic of Jack the Colonel vs Jack the man in this episode, I think we see yet another time that he's put in a position where he has to do something he would normally have an ethical problem with. When he and Daniel are talking to the entity and it becomes clear that what it wants most is to preserve its race, he finally sees a way to get Sam back, and he’s going to take it, no matter what the ethical cost is. Nothing matters as much to him as getting Sam back. When he has time to think about it later, this is one of the things that causes major problems for him. If he’d do anything for Carter, then what business does he have being in a situation where he could do anything for her? In other words, the person who would give anything to keep her alive, to keep her with him, has no business being the person who has the power to do those things to keep her alive. There will come a time when the temptation to bend the ethical rules is too great, because nothing matters to him as much as Sam... and that's not the position a CO should find himself in.
That's why when he reaches for her hand at the very end of the episode, he stops himself. He knows that throughout the entire situation he's acted and reacted more like a man in love than an Air Force officer and her CO. After his conversation with Hammond and his soul searching moments at her bedside (carefully distanced from her though), he's made the decision to be just her CO from now on, and that means not holding her hand right now. The look on his face, the frustration evident in every line of his body, it all points to his decision to step back from her, to stop being more than just her CO. It’s killing him to do it, but he’s afraid that if he doesn’t, something else will kill her instead.
What I find most telling is his over compensation. Look at the way he treats her in S5 compared to the way he treats Teal'c and Daniel, or to the way he treated them all back in S1, when they were just becoming a team. His whole attitude is far more cold than his regular way of interacting with his team. In his caution, he ends up so far from the line he can see the other side of it from where he is. I think that tells more about the depth of his feelings than almost anything else, and certainly more than anything else we see in S5. It's Newton's Third Law of Motion at work: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. He moved himself away from her with the same distance and force he wanted to pull her to him.
*Oma trips on the edge of the cavern entrance and feels herself fallinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng...............*
Exactly how deep is the Pit of Despair?
Originally posted by mara-anni View PostWell I'm gonna have to disagree with you on the issue of Sarah 'getting' Jack. I'm not saying that she and JAck didn't love each other or that they had a bad marriage - clearly they had some happy times. However I've watched Cold Lazarus (which is really all we ever get to know of her) a few times lately and I have to say that I think their relationship was on rocky ground well before Charlie's death. And I think there is ample evidence there to show that she really didn't 'get' him.
I'm too tired to go into it now, I'll expand some other time...
hmm...maybe that's what I can do for Valenship - a treatise on Jack and Sarah based on Cold Lazarus. Am I grasping at straws now or what?!
Originally posted by Oma-1 View PostThat seems really strange! Here's an idea to try.....I've uploaded the sig and avatar onto my pb account. I'll put the pics below, so all you have to do is copy the [img] tag and paste it into your sig. You won't have to use GW's uploader this way, so it should work. Fingers crossed!

Although I'm tempted to say - "I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it, can't prove anything".
I am totally excited for Continuum - actually I'm really excited for both movies - but just the fact that there looks to be some awesome Jack-ness and hopefully some kinetic shipper-dee-doo-dah happenings is making me all squirmy. Bring it!!
