Thoughts on Trio

Just a couple of belated thoughts on last week's SGA episode "Trio"

1. When Rodney said "Jon Stewart" I'm sure he was thinking "John Sheppard". They do have the same initials. Coincidence? I think NOT! :D

2. Don't get me wrong, I adore Jewel Staite and I like Keller quite a bit. But I just got the feeling through the entire episode that Sam and Rodney could be her parents, for heavens sake.

3. Obviously we all know John and Rodney have bought flatware and matching towels and settled in for the long haul. But on screen? How could I possibly object to Keller having a little bit of a crush on Rodney? I think she's one of US. She saw Rodney under the worst of circumstances, saw all his flaws, and yet she could tell he was a "nice guy". She could tell he is brave and resourceful and loyal and strong and funny and brilliant and likes Jon Stewart and he can build bombs! Also he can hold someone on a rope like nobody's business, and physical exertion does lovely things to his muscles, and he's all hot and sweaty and guh. So in summary: Keller? Good taste, sister.

3A. And of course you realize she's already seen him naked...

All excellent

There's got to be a fic somewhere in that, doncha think? :D

John: Weren't you even a little bit tempted?
Rodney: Of course not! You know I'd never cheat on you. Plus, how could I? She's seen me naked?
John: Well, isn't that kind of the point, Rodney?
Rodney: There's naked and then there's DOCTOR naked. Those are two very different things.
John: McKay, sometimes you really scare me.

Hmmm....I just realized that I made them sound like Jim and Blair! Oh well.
