OVERALL OPINION Well, if you watch the first scene and then turn it off it gets a shippiness rating of 5/5. The look on Sam and Jack's faces is truly worth watching! And he just can't get over the idea that they're engaged in another universe. Otherwise don't waste your time.

1) Talking Physics: Daniel is explaining the events he experienced from "There But For The Grace Of God". Jack and Sam are next to each other, Jack is clearly not believing a word Daniel is saying. Sam is trying, so she asks if there were any differences from the reality Daniel experienced and this reality.

Daniel: Yes, ah, Teal'c was leading the attack on Earth. I wasn't even part of the program. You and Jack were engaged to be married.
Jack: Excuse me? (Jack immediately looks at Sam, who glances back at him.)
Sam: What? (Sam seems to consider this for a second and turns back to Daniel, clearly shocked but trying to recover.) Okay, uh... Even if you did actually experience the alternate reality doesn't the very fact that there were differences mean that we won't suffer the same fate? (Jack stares at her.)
Daniel: Yes, but the defining event, the death of Ra, took place in both worlds.
Teal'c: An act of retribution.
Daniel: Yes, and the same thing is gonna happen here unless we stop it.
Jack: All right... wait a minute. Let me get something straight here...

You truly get the idea he is going to say something relevant, adding to the conversation, something completely other than what he actually does, and then making a cute hand signal that indicates him and Sam, he continues:

Jack: Engaged?
Sam: Its theoretically possible, sir.
Jack: Its against regulations!
Sam: I'm talking physics, sir.

And Jack continues to stare at Sam, as if the possibility of them being a couple had never, ever occurred to him, and then General Hammond interrupts.

2) Briefing: This should come as no surprise, but during the briefing Jack and Sam are sitting together. :)

3) Infected: As Kinsey mentions the plague brought back in "The Broca Divide" Sam glances over at Jack, seemingly remembering being 'touched'. Wonder what she was thinking?

4) Goodbye: During the flashback to "Brief Candle" we see the video clip the team prepared for Jack, and Sam's "... goodbye's really suck". Then the camera pulls back onto Carter in the briefing room and she looks very sad as she remembers this happening to Jack. I only wish we could have seen her reaction to Jack's quip, "I might even retire there".
