Aw, man, difficult one! I may have to pick out five good ones, as I'm not sure how I'd go about ranking them to find the absolute top.


1) Death Knell. Pretty much in its entirety, but especially the moment where she finds the crashed UAV and just immediately goes to work on it. (And the moment at the very end, where she just needs to rest for a moment. Classic Sam understatement. ...I also have it in my head that Sam did not make it back to the 'gate on her own power after that, though it probably took Jack five minutes or so to realize that she'd completely passed out and to go "Aw, crap.")


2) The conversation between Sam and Jack at the beginning of Nemesis, because every time I hear it, I can hear a couple of lines that I swear were written in but cut:

O'NEILL: Oh yes! What I am describing here, Carter involves a very special element.

(Cut:

CARTER: ...so does this.

O'NEILL: I'm talking about fun, Carter.
)

[Carter gestures at equipment.]

CARTER: This is fun to me, sir.


This illusion is so persistent that every time I read the transcript or watch the episode, I'm surprised that those lines don't exist.


3) The beginning of Enemies.

JACOB: And blow the last chance I might ever have to be right?

[He walks past O'Neill.]

O'NEILL: (confused) What?

CARTER: (grinning) Welcome to my life.

[She follows Jacob out.]

O'NEILL: (still confused) What?



4) Nightwalkers. Twice. "Let's get some lunch."


5) The conversation in Learning Curve where she's talking with Merrin about how satisfying it is to discover a solution to a problem that's been eluding her, rather than being given the answer outright.
