Chloe and Scott's relationship, out of nowhere?

[The Mighty 6 platoon]

we are going to die so lets go out with a bang

I think that pretty much describes their intentions if you know what I mean.

[KEK]

TPTB are sending the message that casual sex is OK. This is really sad considering SGU is aimed at a younger demographic.

Casual sex is OK. Besides, there's no message being sent, I'd say it's a pretty accurate portrayal of how two young people may react given the situation they're in, and realism is what they're aiming for here. Also, this may be aimed at a younger audience, but the audience is still an adult one, this is by no means a lesson in morality and there's no intention for any of these characters to be role models, far from it.

It was clearly the we are going to die scenario but I could have done with a little more transtion and explanation of why they were having sex.

Cause they were about to die...its common among tv for two lovers at first sight to do this if they feel that they wont have another chance. Grant it they could have saved it for a later ep though.

Where do you guys live?

I work in Manhattan. Thursday night is the biggest night for the bar scene. Why? Because that's how people meet the person they'll be "dating" on Saturday.

In the age group that these characters are in, this happens all the time. "17 episodes" to build a relationship? You mean a year? That would mean when a real life person goes off to college, they don't get into a sexual relationship until they are a sophmore. Yeah, right.

It's aimed younger as in "under 50". Not "under 18". The characters are in the 20's. Not teenagers.

Every viewer knew they would survive for obvious reasons. So, while it may have been a "we are going to die" scenario for the characters, it surely wasn't for the viewers.

you sir have pointed out a major flaw that must be ignored or else.

The demographic is 20 something males. That is the only reason TPTB wrote in a useless 20 something hawt young thing, and an oversexed 20 something male. I'm all for "good" sex but this scenario is downright BORING.

I believe I already said. Its obviously because they are going to die which is why I am not complaining about the earlyness. It could have been explained better why it was these two people

Acutaully I believe its the 20-34 demographic. And 20 something females are just as prone to this scene as the males

So?

[stldad]

Bingo.... no lead in brings it very close to just gratuitous. Don't think the episode would have suffered a bit if the scene had been cut.

[Arative]

The scene made no sense at all. Their deep relationship and love for each other came out of nowhere. That is just bad writing and I fear for the show if writing like this continues.

What are you talking about deep relationship and love? That was no where near what was in the episode.

Their young, their going to have sex. That's all it was.

[dahok]

This is not to bash either character and.....I bloody loved the ep!! Bloody great.

But....

Did I miss about 17 episodes of the build up between Chloe and Scott??D

Allow me to paraphrase their previous chemistry:

Chloe "I just lost my dad"
Scott "My parents died when I was...."
Chloe "Oh I'm so attached to you, I've never related to anyone so much in my life. Make love to me Randy!"

The heat was just emanating from my usually cool LCD screen.
