*sniff*
I just re-watched "100 days." Ouch. There is no way not to feel horrible for everyone involved in that episode, even Laira. *cutting this because I'm rambling*
I realize it's easy to demonize her because she withholds information from Jack about the radio until it's almost too late, but it's pretty easy to see why. She's lonely, and she was attracted to Jack from the beginning. Daniel may be my main squeeze, but even I can see Jack's appeal. He's a leader even without the uniform, and she recognizes that.
And much as I generally like Sam, it hit me harder than usual on her behalf when Jack just walks past her. For some reason it didn't sock me in the gut the first time I saw it just how long three months is--something about how the season just doesn't seem to change on Edora made it easy to ignore. *is nitpicky*
I would ramble farther and might later, but I have to go eat and then tutor Latin, so I've gotta go.
In brief, my main quibble with this episode is that there is not enough Daniel. (Everyone on my flist says "no duh!") If anyone has recommendations on good 100-days fic of any description to fill in the somewhat sore hole in my chest, however, I would be a happy girl.
