Be glad you missed it! It make me so angry it took me several hours to calm down enough to make the above entry. And then I read the Gateworld discussion, and it maddened me even more.
I mean, okay, Sheppard had his moments of The Jerk, too - you know I hate the guy - like when he ordered Kavanagh tortured. But: a) fortunately, it didn't come so far, and b) the oh-so-diplomatic civilian expedition leader agreed with him. Which tells you a lot about the expedition leader, but hey, at least they were in agreement.
Okay, Sheppar went over the head of Weir(d) during the nanovirus crisis and got away with it, but that's still miles away from threatening her with a frigging *gun*!
