I didn't say it was derailment, I said it was OOC. While you do make a point with the Sam thing, his response to Cameron was far too much of an overreaction. Jo had actively abused him for several episodes (remember the mine and Dr. McLean island thing. I can understand if Lightning was ticked off, but the levels of intensity the conflict reached, in that amount of time, that just doesn't Dr up for me and fees like an excuse to get him to the finale. If he was always a jerk jock for the whole season then I'd be fine, but that wasn't the case here.
