I loved the Rodney scene, and I love it more each time I watch it. (...what?) I also love how Rodney just barges into John's quarters without knocking, much as he does in "Miller's Crossing". Nice contrast with "Trinity" where he knocks and then Sheppard doesn't even let him in; their comfort level is so much higher now than it was then (and it was pretty high even then!).

John's expression when Rodney leaves is just, "I am loved..."

I got that from that look, too -- as awkward as Rodney is with his attempt at sympathy, John gets it. With Teyla, in Sateda, she filled in the blanks for him. But with Rodney, the blanks don't even need to be filled. The two of them just know, and it's so lovely.

And you know, I've been talking in various comments about how much John has changed over the seasons, but the change in Rodney can't be ignored, either. Two years ago, he wouldn't even have thought of coming by to see John. Or, he might even have thought about it, but he wouldn't have done it.
