I'm not fussing about how Sam was portrayed. hell, they already mucked up the character with her pining over pete, what's a little more
I think it got more of a picture of sam out of replicarter. Sam is terrified underdeath, afraid of going too far or losing control or doing too much. she uses the rules and regs as reasons not to take risks.
gemini did expose a weakenss though....jack trusts sam, probably too much. she can almost do whatever she wants and he lacks the ability to yank her back.
someone said hammond would have said no. and you're probably right. maybe he would have. but there also would have been a different chain of command. sam would have had to follow jack's orders and proven her theory tohim before he convinced hammond.
that did change things a bit.
now we dont' have that filter. Sam, as we've been shown, can get a bit obsessed adn focussed. Without someone to hold her back, she lets her focus distract her and keep her from seeing the big picture.
What i do think is funny....sam is always criticized for being 'super sam' and never making mistakes.
well she did. big time. So she screwed up...now we get to see how she deals with making that mistake and how/if she fixes it
Other than that, i thought it was a good episode. very dramatic, very twisty. of course RC was betraying someone....you just didn't now exactly WHO she was betraying until the end...and to be truthful, you cant' even be sure how it'll all play out
