So. Scar.
14 things I love about that scene, or, proof I had too much time on my hands and easy access to Hawt-pilot-almost-porn
by elly
1. The way Kara says "it is funny" after spitting on Lee and him saying "it's not funny." If that was improv, Katee and Jamie need to get some sort of prize because it was PERFECT.
2. The look on Lee's face when Kara is 2/3 of the way in for the kiss. He's got this little half smile on his face and he can't take his eyes off of her and HAWT.
3. The random cuttage of the frantic pre-sexing scene, because it's pretty obvious a lot got let on the cutting room floor and I demand it be on the dvds along with Katee and Jamie commentary.
4. HANDS IN UNDERWEARS AKJDS;JFA;JSD AND LEE KNEELING WHILST THE HANDS ARE IN THE UNDERWEARS A;JAFJDASFJDF;JADS. I am dead from HAWT.
5. The way Kara's eyes roll and you can subtly see her freaking out when she says "I don't want to know, I don't want to know" and pushes Lee away because you know she knows what's wrong with him. loooooooove, baybee. Looooove.
5a. The look on Lee's face in that moment.
5b. How red and shiny Lee's lips are (HAAAAWT)
6. "Well that's just great." Tone of voice, people. I usually think the ole J-Bam sounds, er, funny. Like his rhythm of speaking with an american accent is just a little off, but his voice is deep and slightly pissed and mmm.
7. "I am hung up on a dead guy, okay?" not really sure about the sentiment, but the delivery is perfect. Also, the way Katee's forehead wrinkles is awesome.
8. "Oh Kara, please" yes, try to tell me these two haven't had drunken sex in the past. Try. No, do it.
9. The way a piece of Kara's bangs is blow back by the force of Lee's "you haven't got my pity."
10. These two have awesome personal space issues.
11. The fact that I obsess over the way Lee licks his lips after the slap but before Kara kisses him. HAWT.
12. This is stupid and I will not explain it well, but Jamie Bamber always seems so small to me. When Kara kisses him and just sort of stands there and then brings his hands up in this "whaaa? wait, aren't we -?" and then just decides to go for it and brings his hands up to her head - every time I watch I think, "ah, Lee's a man now." He just looks very adult to me. He's normal size. I don't know what that means either.
13. I love the way Kara swings the hatch closed. And! They barred it using a pipe or something. As someone I've read mentioned, clearly there were many times where the whole thing could have stopped. I mean, they had to get from the making out in the other room to their barrack to barricading the door to the removal of footwear. Dude.
14. I'm hoping Jamie and Katee either shot a script that was radically changed in editing or were told the final cut was going to look one way and then looked like it did, because they've both basically said this kind of ends Kara/Lee but dude. It did not.
In conclusion, HAWT. And, I loves my pilots so.

Dude, I would never try to tell you any such thing. I found particularly telling:
1) The fact that Lee realizes something's wrong with Kara based entirely on the fact that there's something like off about her energy during the foreplay. Like, he actually says "What's going on?" in response to her super!aggression as though, I don't know, HE SOMEHOW KNOWS HOW SHE NORMALLY IS DURING FOREPLAY?
2) "I just wanted a good lay!" as though...she might, I don't know, KNOW IT WOULD BE GOO FROM PAST EXPERIENCE?
Just saying.
5a./5b. OMFG YES. I keep stopping and just staring at the frame, because firstly, OMG PRECIOUS HEARTBREAK AND LOOOVE all over his face. And secondly dude HE IS SO FLUSHED AND READY TO HAVE SOME SEX. So hot omfg.
re: 14.
I don't feel like Jamie ever tried to say that it ended Lee/Kara so much as express his belief that they might never be able to actually like settle down and couple, but at the same time what he says is all full of how they'll always be intrinsically drawn to each other in that way. As far as Katee's infamous "closes the door forever", yeah, that's kind of weird since this scene as it played doesn't really jive with that. But it should also be noted that three seconds later Katee talked about how tremendously they love each other and how they just can never seem to get their ducks in a row with regard to each other and ultimately she doesn't know if they ever will/the writers will ever let them. SO, it also ends up coming off as an expression of doubt regarding whether they'll ever be able to just couple off. Which, there's a distinction between, "They might always be fucked up on-again/off-again lovers." and "No romance between them ever again." Ron D. Moore's party line seems to be the former.
Though, all that said, if for no other reason than Katee and Jamie seemed to heavily imply that actual sex was had, the question of where occured the disconnect between what they thought the cut would be and what the cut actually was remains.

BECAUSE LAST TIME, WHILE I COULD SEE HER BEING AGRESSIVE, SHE WAS NOT TRYING TO BITE HIS HEAD OFF, HOT AS THAT MAY HAVE BEEN.
KNOW IT WOULD BE GOO FROM PAST EXPERIENCE?
OMG YES. LEE ADAMA = AUTOMATIC GOOD TIME.
HE IS SO FLUSHED AND READY TO HAVE SOME SEX.
sfjhsdf/ jg;sjdf df; klgdsjgl I HAVE NOT WORDS
And all of your other points are excellent. It is my firm belief Katee and Jamie are going to play the sexual chemistry no matter what (as Jamie says in that AOL bit, they are crazily attracted to each other. Is it crazily? anyways YES)

P.S. NEW DISCOVERIES
1) Lee is heading for the bunk and Kara pulls him over to the table which is why he is initially off balance. I HOPE IT WAS ONE OF THEIR BUNKS.
2) When Kara stands up after he tries to talk to her, SHE THROWS HER PANTIES AT HIM. Omg, I hate the word panties. BUT SHE DOES.
From:

THAT IS CLEARLY A SIGN THAT HE SHOULD NOT GIVE UP. Girls do not throw their panties around lightly.
and how AWESOME would it be if it were SOMEONE ELSE'S bunk because Lee couldn't WAIT TO HAVE HER SO HE WAS WILLING TO DO IT WHERE EVER?
Ahhh, pilots.

I mean...not for whoever's bunk it was! But, you know, like, in general terms!
