Okay, I loved the scene with Teyla telling Ronon & John, but damn it - when the hell was she supposed to have told the guys? Because, that was never addressed on-screen prior to this week's ep. She wasn't in Miller's Crossing & in The Seer, she was still like, "I'm not gonna tell them yet..." I don't remember anything being said in TMC, but I was like dealing w/ laundry last night at the time. Bah! Easy out on the writer's part - trying to shove all the guilt off on Shep.
Yeah, Teyla being sick - huge clue to the guys - Teyla's never sick - she's almost healthier than the guys in many respects. :-p
Ronon's reaction was good - I like the fact that he took Teyla by the hand to walk her to the infirmary afterwards and the gentle teasing for a name.
I got to talking with a friend on John's reaction - he's pissed and I think he's got a right to be - there are just too many things that can go wrong when you're pregnant and when you add in the type of trouble our guys tend to get into... oh hell yeah is he gonna pull her off the team.
I want to see/read Rodney's reaction to this news. Because yeah, that needs to be addressed! (Much room for ficcage here!)
AM: I agree with you totally on the costuming of AT - why stick her in something that only shows to highlight that yes, she's not got a perfect abdomen - she hasn't for like 5 years now. (Even before she had Olivia, she was in great shape elsewhere except for like her waistline - that was the one spot she really carried any weight.) Bad costuming. I only hope that Rachel doesn't get stuck in something as bad next year. (But then, Teyla's usually done like a blend of the Atlantis uniform & her own clothing, so there's hope for Rachel yet! :-p)
Carter's stomping of Ellis - it so needed to be done, since Ellis was like a big dog trying to stake out new territory and looking for the weakest member to quite literally piss on. (very verbally in this case!) So, Sam very much needed to set the boundries, because she's the alpha dog, as it were, in Atlantis.
Sheppard's comment about liking Ellis - WTF? I didn't think he'd like such an uptight character. At least Caldwell has mellowed out a bit towards Sheppard, but Ellis? Why? Is it because his first contact with the Atlantis team was to blow up the replicator homeworld and that appealed to John's unknown inner pyromaniac? Bah! :-p
I miss Liz.... I really do. :( She would have stopped Ellis long before he got started on Rodney.
Radek - heee! I love him. He is such a perfect foil to Rodney. :)
