I love Sheppard, but I think I can find some love in my heart for Ronon, too. And as you say, if they go for Ronon/Teyla then we've got clear skies ahead for Shep/Weir, which YAY!

I think Adama had some sort of plan for what he'd do once Laura was arrested, it's just that when he got all shot up that things went to hell because he wasn't around to keep things calm. Cuz Tigh's a fuckup. :)
