7x15 Chimera

Pete's out there making a bad name for men everywhere. It's none of your business, bud.

I DO NOT LIKE SAM'S BOYFRIEND HE IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH. I AM BIG MAD. The way he treats her to guilt her to give him Stargate info is awful and I hate it. Their relationship is red flags the size of Texas

I enjoy checking in on the personal lives of the SG-1 members. Romances don't play a huge part in the show so it's nice to see that Sam has found something that may finally work. It's also good to get Sarah/Osiris back at long last (with Michael Shanks gone last year, it was certainly going to have less impact if she had shown up in the storylines then). Plus, getting back to this "lost city" mystery is very welcome because it seemed to have been more or less forgotten about. There's lots more to come there, of course.

Sam's new boyfriend, Pete, is very problematic though. He seems a nice enough guy even though he doesn't quite seem like a good match for her personality-wise, but he oversteps massively here. He inserts himself into Sam's personal affairs without her knowledge or permission, then follows her secretly (ugh) and she accepts it all without so much as reprimanding him or even acknowledging what he did.

It's also a little strange that a big fight with an alien, full of energy blasts and explosions, happens on a residential street and nobody in the houses seems to notice or care.

I never understood how the fuck Pete never got any kind of blame, both from Sam and from the governement. Also, why tell him about the Stargate? Just tell him to forget what he saw and that's all or come up with some bullshit about aliens but no need to give him details about the gate.

Carter and that dress. Wow!

Sam is just stunning Pete is so not worthy to enter her orbit. I can’t recall completely, but let’s hope Pete gets kicked to touch after this episode.
