But Jack I think will forever be surprised whenever Sam tells him she can't do something. Though I agree, as the years go on she becomes much more comfortable with herself, and with the fact that she may not always have the answer.
What I found interesting is the dynamic between Sg-1 and Ronson and his crew. SG-1 has not only had more experience with aliens and space travel, but with this vessel itself. They've flown it before. Sam helped design some of it's key systems - and frankly can fly and maintain the thing herself (as she proves in Grace). So here they are, these veterans, amongst a crew of rookies (at least as far as space flight is concerned)
Ronson says to Jack that he and his crew need to learn how to do it themselves without SG-1 to babysit (not exactly his words ) and JAck can understand that and sympathise with that, he knows that a team or crew needs to learn to work together and rely on each other.
But it isn't until the problems start that you see that Ronson has a point. The way Sam immediately leans over that Major's console and starts relaying what the problems are and the way Jonas too joins in.
Problem occurs - SG-1 jump up and deal with it themselves. They can't help it, it's just an automatic reaction to them. Sam does it on the ship constantly. Problem, she leans over the console as though she owns it and starts determing the cause and the cure, and the rest of SG-1 join in and it's as though no one else exists in some ways. Though she does remember to ask Ronson for permission and he tells them to take that Major, I assume so she can learn from them.
Did that make sense?
