Disclaimer: Characters belong to MGM et al.
Sam launches into another complicated explanation, and as soon as she says the word, “theoretically,” Paul can tell her commanding officer has zoned out. Paul, however, is hooked. He tries to keep looking professional, but watching Sam Carter talk technical is a huge thrill. He adores it.
She tells him later that she noticed his attention, and he can’t deny it. Sam loves what she does, and she’s so passionate about it. He knows she’s had a hard time with previous boyfriends; they just didn’t get it. But Paul does, and it’s one more thing that he loves her for.
