Ah, sorry. But yeah... the scene could definitely have gone without. It was obviously just TPTB resolving the triangle and, even though you're a RK fan, you had to have known that Rodney would "win" her. I felt so bad for Ronon. And her... she just seemed... contrite, you know? Yeah she didn't want to 'lead him on' but, aside from the almost kiss, I don't think there was much in the way of RK (sorry, I know you ship them). TPTB have stuffed McKeller down our throats so much that the triangle was pretty much obliterated before it really started.
But seriously. McKeller. Bleh.
The episode, I thought, was one of the best ones I've seen from the Atlantis writers for a while. On a whole, it wasn't entirely 'character' driven - it was more plotty and although Teyla got left out of the ep, I don't think there was anything that she could have done 'out there' to give her more screen time.
