Originally posted by minigeekYou really think so? I don't know. She laid it on the table for Jack. He turned her down. I think it was definitely a powerful moment of conflict (dramatically speaking), but I don't necessarily see it as out of character for either of them. Not a happy moment, but not a degrading one. Sam's character isn't overtly adversarial, and she was really hoping Jack would say something to stop her. When he didn't - she "sucked it up" and tried to deal. That is what I think Sam would do. It isn't the happy outcome some might have wanted, but dramatically speaking, it's true to her character. Slide right back into "denial" mode. Where it's safe. And doesn't hurt.Spoiler:the acceptence scene and engagement. Accepting the proposal and making out at a crime scene. Everyone knew she was going to dump Pete at the end, so it just made her look bad.Last edited by Rogue; 27 September 2005, 07:20 AM.Odo's last wishes: cremate me, put me in my bucket, then shoot me through the wormhole.

Originally posted by blueirisI don't think she should depend on him to tell her what to do. She should marry Pete if she loved him enough. But she didn't. If was just all wrong on so many levels.

Originally posted by minigeekYes, exactly. It was wrong. Sam made a mistake. A big one. Huge. Monumental. It was a poor decision made due to the fact that her judgement was clouded by hurt. That's a character flaw. It's pure conflict, and conflict engenders drama. That's how stories get interesting. Tension is the character catalyst we all love to hate. But it's what drives the whole shebang when it comes to storytelling.

Originally posted by RogueI believe he knew too. But why didn't he step up to the plate? Was he waiting on Sam to say something, was it the Regs? It wasn't that long ago she was trying to tell him her feelings and he said "I know".sigpic

Originally posted by blueirisI honestly believe Jack never felt he was good enough for Sam. That and the regs are what I always thought kept Jack passive. However, once Sam let him know that his feelings were returned (which he professed in D&C), something should have happened between them. Words should have been spoken. And by words, I mean sentences.Odo's last wishes: cremate me, put me in my bucket, then shoot me through the wormhole.
