There are other people on the show besides Rodney and Zelenka? Seriously? NO! But really, while I hated the plot to Atlantis this time (because it seemed so, to trite), I loved the wibble-cutesie-ness. Oooh. And while I'm definitely a Rodney/Radek kind of person (and trust me, I completely squee-d myself out, in front of my grandma no less), but I was feeling the John/Rodney love! *makes more doghnuts*
Vala is SO NOT DEAD! We'll see her again! *evil cackle* Poor Danny, he's gone through so many girls on this show it's not even funny. They even too Jack away from him, for goodness' sake. I do love Sam, but the second I saw the basketball scene, I began pining for her to stay. Sam can go... as long as she can stay my role model and marry Jack, and they can invite Danny over all the time, if he's not occupied with Super!Vala (I just KNOW she's going to steal something super-good and worthwhile while giving the priors hell!).
Dee/Adama love goes straight to family. Having his son die left a huge, gaping hole of "family" to be filled, and I think that that scene not only showed that he had taken Dee on as an unofficial part of his family, but I think he'd been doing it for a while.

The thing I first loved about them was her cheerful attempts to get into his pants (many of them not actually serious, but would /you/ turn him down?) despite his complete lack of attraction to her. While I can very easily see TPTB putting them together later on, I hope they don't.

Mmm... cliches can be wonderful in the hands of good writers, and I thought the writing this ep was excellent. You have to know the plot wasn't going to go anywhere good (if it had /worked/, there wouldn't be much of a show left) but (unlike Star Trek V where you know they're not /really/ ever gonna meet God and the process leading up to their eventual clueing-in is interminably awful), I had /fun/, and was so swept up in Rodney's enthusiasm I pretty much forgot I knew what was going to happen and enjoyed the emotional roller coaster.

I know it will never happen on the show and that people who actually know the characters probably consider 'shipping the two to be a sure indicator of being on the bad crack... but sigh.
