Maybe James is thinking.. "Scott isn't worth it."
And I think she'd be right. I he's happy bouncing from one woman to another.. Maybe she's seen enough of life say.. "I don't want any of that kind of man."
And now, she's trying to move on the best she can.
The other option, that has been mentioned before.. Maybe James' and Scott's interlude in the broom closet was "casual" thing. Maybe both were hoping for more, but circumstances change. And now they're happy they're not together.
But the REALLY sad part about this commentary.. is that we're having this conversation at all... Why must we be conjecturing "this guy hooks up with this gal, and that guy should get together with that gal. AND.. ooh! don't forget, this other guy, and that other gal would be a perfect pairing."

I started to like her in "Air" part 3 and she keeps proving herself to be a strong character. Even if secondary. Her reaction was great, the 'broom closet' comment was hilarious, but I didn't quite understand if she was a bit hurt, jealous or sorry for Chloe.

I believe the same can be said about Scott. This relationship with Chloe should not tarnished how he is perceived. Romance/flings at work happen in the military and outside of it.
At the very least, Scott isn't some sexual criminal forcing his desires on others. We don't know his relationship with James and the fact that he tries to talk about it with her shows he wanted to clear things up with her.
Having Chloe lose her dad connected with Scott cause he mentioned he lost his parent and later his guardian.
Their relationship doesn't seem to be about sex, but we cannot assume Scott is Chloe's first either. We have no reason for that assumption.
Not to mention, their intimate encounter occurred when they believed they were going to die or at least one of them.
I don't view Scott from one angle, unlike most of SG's previous characters (especially main cast) SGU is really trying to show multiple facts to these characters and I will enjoy watching it. Even if i will miss the action scenes from before.

I have to say I was impressed by James reaction. I was really expecting this to be the start of some horrible love triangle, or heaven forbid a quadrangle, but James showed real class in not only steping back from Scott and leaving him to Chole but stepping up by helping their relationship. I have to say I wasn't expecting that kind of honor and maturity.sigpic

Lord only knows (pun not intented) that there is a significant chunk of society that does that already.
That being said, I'd like to echo what other people have been saying: James just rocked in this episode. From the lines to the delivery to the expression on her face... she took her few scenes and just knocked 'em out the park!
I also use this as proof that the PTBs are painfully aware of how their previous shows were pretty much walking cliches and are now working to avoid them.

Originally posted by Cory Holmes View PostI see it differently. I see Scott as continuously punishing himself for what he did wrong in his own eyes. It's entierly possible that he blames the death of his father-figure priest on himself for how he got that girl pregnant (which may have simply been the results of teenage hormones). It could be that he's "dealing" with that by repeating the same self-destructive/self-flaggilating behaviour over and over again.

Originally posted by Kaiphantom View PostI could almost forgive the closet bang, because here he was now, having a life or death struggle. The Chloe thing shows us he has learned *nothing* after all. Which makes for a pretty poor character, if they are incapable of learning. If he can't learn, then he can't grow as a character.
