Spoiler:
i don't think sam would have married pete, even if jacob loved pete. she had probs with being with pete from the get-go, which only increased when pete pushed sooooo hard to advance it.
sam tried to change/fix/alter/repair/save/deflect/warp/etc the s/j/p situation many times.
in grace, she had a hard time letting go of jack. even in that last moment between them in the infirmary.
in chimera, she showed melancholy while dancing with pete. i always felt she was thinking of jack at that moment. she also didn't like pete pushing their relationship to something 'more' so soon.
in death knell and heroes 1 and 2, she struggled to hide her feelings for jack.
in lost city 1 and 2, she tried to talk to jack about her feelings.
in new order 1 and 2, she continued the struggle.
in affinity, to *me*, she was trying to get a rise out of jack with the whole ring scene. i could just see sam thinking, 'give me one reason, jack, just one, and i'll break up with this guy. for you.'
in gemini, she 'saw' her replicator self stuggle with her jack feelings too.
in threads, she tried one last time to appeal to jack (figuratively and literally). and it took his girlfriend dumping him and sam's father dying for him to 'finally' let her see into his heart.
but whether jack let sam see into him, i have absolutely no doubts that sam would have broke up with pete anyways. she might have loved him, but i don't believe she was 'in love' with him. and he would have *always* been second best in her eyes and heart. i think sam would have eventually broke it off, even if it were the day of the wedding. but i really don't believe she would have let it go that far.

I wish they would have kept that bit of dialogue from the sides(which was told us way before the episode aired by one of our posters whose name excapes me) of the convo between
Spoiler:
Kerry and Jack. Kerry mentions retiring and Jack says, "Again." In the sides dialogue he says, "I've considered it." This would have given us more of an idea that Jack has been pondering ways out of their regulation dilemma. The "again" sounds a bit like Jack humor and he was using a bit of humor out of an awkward situation, like when he says, "Just one?"
