thegrrrl2002: (John and Rodney irresistible)
[personal profile] thegrrrl2002
Lots and lots of screencaps of

Oh my. Capping this ep was lots of fun. I made a few zillion of them.


First of all, I just wanted to say that it looks as if The Colonel has been hitting the donuts a bit too often. ::rubs the pretty Colonel belly::


Aw. Smiling, awkward Rodney with flowers. And a less-then-enthused sister. I just adore her expression here.


And here. When she looks out the window in the Daedalus and realizes she's Out In Space. I loved her reaction, because yeah, I'd be kind of freaked out, too.


Oh Rodney, look at you, in your cute little geek clothes!! ::dies::


There are a lot of Dancing Rodney Hands Of Exposition in this ep. ::is happy::


::giggles::


"Hi, I'm John Sheppard, Rodney's boyfriend? He may have mentioned me. Pleased to meet you."


"Meredith?"


Alt!Rodney!!! I love the heroic nature of his pose. It's hilarious. And so Not our Rodney.


John, you bad boy, teasing Rodney like that.


Poor Rodney!! But come on now, tell me you never teased the heck out of your sister when she was younger. She's just getting you back.


Again, body language. I love the difference between slouchy, relaxed Alt!Rodney and our more uptight version.


Alt!Rodney smiles a lot. It's pretty, yet somewhat unnerving.


Our Rodney is still the prettiest.


I love how this scene opens with Rod and Jeannie chatting, but we can see the reflection of our Rodney touching each other talking very closely with John.


"How can you not want to be with him? He's you!" ::dies::


And in a shoutout to "Trinity", we get a scene where John is getting into the transport, but this one is silly beyond belief because....


We get the goofy Shep head-tilt, and the peering...


Right up to the point when the door closes. Oh, John, you flirty big dork, you.


And suddenly grrrl finds golf extremely, inexplicably, HOT.


Yup.


HOT.


And John learns that Alt!John is a Mensa-chapter-attending geek.


Because of course, our John is so not a geek. Nope, not one bit.


Um....yeah. Much love for this scene, for so, so, so many reasons.


While capping this scene, I became completely fascinated by John's biceps. They're quite lovely, and are very busy during the scene.


Um...phallic, much?


Hee! I loved this little scene. It was very touching. And silly. And sweet.


Lots of Radek in this ep. Which is always a good thing.


She looks all kinds of pretty in this shot.


Oh John, you big smooshball, you. ::loves::


And he never tells Rodney why he's there. I wonder if Rodney ever learns that Jeannie saw the clip.


Fabulous moment.


Okay, raise your hand if you got all teary-eyed, too. I certainly did.


::sniffs::


And I love how Rodney is smiling when he walks away. It's so genuine and sweet. ::melts::


Is Rodney still not getting the team emails?


Best Ending to An Episode, EVER. ::feels the love::

Man, I loved this ep.

your comments are as wonderful as the caps. thank you for posting these!

*hugs*

ps. the toothbrush cleaning utterly cracks me up. er, not that i haven't done the same with my horse's saddle and bridle or anything like that...

You're very welcome, sweetie!!

The toothbrush thing was pretty funny. I know nothing about the care and cleaning of golf clubs, but even I'm thinking that's a bit overboard.

How much dirt is there on Atlantis, anyway? *g*

And of course you haven't done that with a bridle or saddle or anything. Uh huh. *g*

::raises hand:: Yes I did. And every time since, damn it. I'm still wanting to have this ep's babies liekwhoa!

Tell me something: am I going mad, or is that a box of tissues on the side table on the far side of John's bed? Could just be a book, but um, it looks an awful lot like tissues to me. And tissues=mopping up after... er, um, you know.

And why does he need TWO GLASSES on his water-carafe tray, hmmm?

SO MUCH LOVE!

I'd say it's a box of tissues. And I'm thinking they go through them pretty damn quickly.

The water carafe tray is very funny for some reason. Kinda prissy, you know? John would insist on matching glasses, too.

Awesome comments, too. The hugging scene at the end totally had me teary. And I *love* the reflection of John and Rodney talking!

The video on the laptop still makes me feel all warm and squishy.

And still, the body language for Rodney is perfect in that last cap. He loves to be there with the team, but he is still insecure Rodney.

You picked the perfect caps to show how warm and lovely an episode this was! And you're right, best ever ending.

And I still don't know anyone who didn't tear up during that scene! I know I did! In fact, I may have cried, it was just so sweet.

It was such a warm episode, wasn't it? So fabulous.

I love the warm yellow lights in that scene with the hug, too. It just added to the softness of it. Very nicely done.

Oh these caps... and your comments to go with them... *flails helplessly*

Rod only made me love Rodney more (and get a bit defensive somehow? As in: Nonononnono! Cool ain't better! I love the awkward and slumping and nervous handfumbling and and... Is that very weird?)

And Jeanie is so much a woman of flesh and blood; strong and passionate and intelligent and uhm... great butt, yum[/shallow]

And that cap you made with the '...still the prettiest' remark: so so true. Great moment to cap.

Thanks for these *saves them all*

I like how wierd "Rod" seemed. He quickly became annoying and unsettling to watch, even though he looked lovely in that leather jacket.

Jeannie is very gorgeous. And very Rodney-like, which is totally endearing.

glad you enjoyed the caps!

The ending? I've seen it three times so far and it has yet to lose any of the sweetness. I've cried every time!

These are gorgeous caps. And that scene with John in the elevator? Look how soft Rodney's hair looks. Guh.

From: [identity profile] thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com
I keep watching the ending, too. Especially since [livejournal.com profile] charlidos pointed out that you can hear John whisper "here he comes" when Rodney sees them in the mess (after all the laughing). It makes the scene even sweeter. They set it all up just for Rodney.

::loves::

Huh, and Rodney's hair does look very soft and touchable in the transporter scene, doesn't it? Mmmm...

Ya know, I've been studying your caps, and thank you so much for that! And I've been wondering. . . what happened to John's bed spread/comforter/blanket? That looks like a bare sheet to me. Maybe it's hanging outside to air out because it got something on it? Maybe it's spread on the floor because they sometimes like to have more room than the single bed provides? *shrugs* I dunno. *g*

From: [identity profile] thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com
I noticed the lack of blankets, too. A bare sheet. Because those blankets and whatnot get in the way during, er, certain physical activities.

Although your explanation works, too.

Thank you so much! You chose just the scenes I would have, had I the ability to cap, and they are sparkling clear. Isn't Jeannie/Kate gorgeous? I am in love with her now. And John showing her Rodney's letter from Pegasus surprised and delighted me so much, especially because, as you point out, he never tells Rodney what he's doing. Thank you again for doing all this work!

I was very surprised to see the clip from "Letters", even though there was a credit to Carl Binder in the credits. I wondered about it for a moment, then got so caught up in the ep I forgot all about it.

And it's my pleasure, I love making caps, and I'm more than happy to share. I really need to find some hi-res versions of this season's eps, because there's so much pretty going on!

Alt!Rodney smiles a lot. It's pretty, yet somewhat unnerving.

You know I found that oddly creepy as well. Thanks for the caps.

Why do I want to make an icon of the both of them "Double the Pleasure"

I couldn't agree more about the team bonding. I think there is a horrific lack of team moments on this show.

Just when I thought I couldn't love you any more..you go and do this..yes, it was a Rodneycentric episode..but for some reason my brain turned of after the "golf" scene..really, how could I be expected to think after that..dear lord that scene..and you know we saw Sheppard!Shorts when that *bites knuckles* shirt rode up.

And of course, his polishing his shaft while Rodney was in his room.

The only thing that could hae been better would be if, one, he just had to take his shirt off during the polishing scene or for some reason we got to see the alternate Sheppard and he wore glasses.

I so got teary eyed with the whole hug scene with the sister at the end. especially because he started out so earnest and awkward and then BAM got it. I love that cap...but then, Alt!McKay and John playing golf? laskdjflksdjfskdf;....guh. Did you get a sense of Alt!McKay flirting with John a bit? Doing the comparison...and trying to gain some points?

No?

umm, me either.

but the last scene with Teyla having a crush on a Marine and everyone making Rodney feel included...priceless. Thank you so much for sharing these. *goes off to decide best one for desktop wallpaper....decisions, decisions, decisions!*

At the risk of having pointy objects thrown at me, I'm going to confess something - I find David Hewlett attractive on some levels, but not likeomgwetpantiesHOT (unlike Joe Flanigan, who totally does it for me) - but in that cap of him hugging Jeannie? He's utterly beautiful.

This was such a fabulous episode for everyone, but esp. DH. He does dual characters so well.

You got all my favourite moments and I just love your comments! :)

The Colonel has been hitting the donuts a bit too often

Hehe, I thought he looked "muscular"... but I kinda like my men rounded, and seeing that little tummy makes me like John even more! ♥

I'll say it again - Kate was adorable as Jeanie and casting a sibling as his on-screen sister could have gone wrong in many ways. But the chemistry was great and all those Hewlett-isms came out right!

I've been saying this - that was a rather pathetic bunch of flowers but I couldn't help but chuckle and just feel all warm and fuzzy for Rodney for at least trying!

Alt!Rodney!!! I love the heroic nature of his pose. It's hilarious. And so Not our Rodney.

Terminator Rod but with the clothes! :)

Again, body language. I love the difference between slouchy, relaxed Alt!Rodney and our more uptight version.

Oh I definitely noticed this one! I wonder if it was DH's improvisation or Martin Gero actually wrote in the script "Sheppard-ish pose" because it reminded me of John instantly.

And suddenly grrrl finds golf extremely, inexplicably, HOT.

Oh so true! Never been a fan of the sport myself - thinks it's boring but uh if "our" John teaches "his" Rodney to swing a club, oh boy, uh definitely interested in it...!

Oh John, you big smooshball, you. ::loves::

A very endearing John Sheppard trait. It speaks volumes about his character and that he really cares. I think I was impressed because it's one of those things that you do selflessly and without recognition. ♥

Loved the hug and the last scene - yay to team bonding! Though they do have rather uncomfortable earth-like plastic chairs in the mess hall or whatever they call it!

I wonder what au John is like now - after Rodney's said that he's a "know all"! :)

Me, too! When I saw this shot in the promo the first thing I thought was "SLASH ALERT!" That's SO a Sheppard pose. And he's wearing Sheppard's leather jacket.

Thanks for posting these pictures. I always enjoy lurking here.
