Well... Remember that whenever it came to Sam and Jack, the PTB were sure to be as vague as possible so they could sleep at night knowing that all viewers were satisfied. /snarkbftlovesRDA wrote: ↑Thu Mar 22, 2018 6:09 am {snipped}
When Jack says, "Sam, I'm a safe bet" and "I"m not that complex".....I've always wondered exactly what he meant by those two statements.
Because in Grace we see them so close to telling the world they love each other.....it just gets so excruciatingly close.....but, then, there's THE KISS...which says it all
First, I think it's important that Jack is the only one who is wearing civilian clothes. This one is personal!
The way I see it, Jack is telling her (actually Sam is telling herself) that it's safe for her to be in love with him because they can't be together. She's been hurt in other relationships so holding onto this one is actually her being in control of the feelings. If she keeps herself distracted by Jack she can't be hurt in a "real" relationship. (Like that's really working out for her, eh? ) She's also arguing with herself about whether she's just using Jack or really does love him. She's afraid he doesn't really love her. But him not being "that complex" is her realizing that he does love her and she's just afraid to let it happen.
I hope I've made sense.
