-The entire opening scene is just plain shippy. John keeps on Aeryn to get her to tell him what's wrong, and then finally she does. (Of course, she also tries to punch him, but we'll forget about that for now.) And the entire time you can see how much they care about each other. I mean, the look on Aeryn's face when he reminds her about the base, and touches her face...
-And by the way, neither of them seem to be caring about their own physical space anymore. John barely lets go of Aeryn the entire time, holding her hand, etc., and you don't hear her complaining, do you?
-The goodbye scene. For one, Aeryn has actually got tears on her face (but I'm not sure if it's from the scene or because of all the choking she'd just been doing). And then the handshake... I know, we would have all been happier with a kiss, but it's not like they're never going to see each other again, right?
And then John risks his life to go to the Peacekeeper base to save her. And the entire time, even with Gilina macking on him, he stays totally focused on saving Aeryn, even passing on a rescue attempt for himself in order to get the tissue sample to Aeryn, just so she can live. Look! He's sacrificing himself for her!
-Crais comes in and tells John Moya has been captured, and then John's face when he asks about Aeryn... Definite heartbreak moment.
-When Aeryn gets the sample, she asks for hiJohnm. (And no one tells her what happened! Next week is gonna hurt...)
