As I mentioned to chyti and live_brave, we tend to accept that women can only be one thing: Teyla's warrior and diplomat skills were completely non-existent in this episode - the only aspect that got any real play was her status as a mother. So, maybe it's "realistic" to believe that Teyla's concern for her son would override anything else; but I know the fans would never, ever, not in a million years accept that (as an example) John wouldn't just protect his son from Michael but also fight back against whoever was trying to kill him.
Do you see what I'm protesting against? It goes deeper than the lack of use of Teyla by TPTB, and touches on the inability of viewers to see that her behaviour would be unacceptable in a male character yet is considered perfectly understandable in a female character.
I liked Ronon/Keller at the start; I'm not so sure about it now. Maybe Ronon/Amelia is a tossed bone to the disappointed Ronon/Keller shippers, but as bones go, I don't think it's a bad one.
