Midway
Rodney hurried back to the other compartment, hoping for a miracle, though dreading that he was responsible for killing the man he ... he wasn't sure what ... but couldn't bear the idea that he was dead, because venting the atmosphere was the only solution.
Did he want to know for certain that John was dead?
He took a couple of steps forward and focused on the spacesuit in front of him. As he activated the light and saw the groggy, oxygen-deprived, but thankfully alive form of Sheppard within, safe again, he swore to himself that he would never do another Darth Vader impression again - when he and John were off on one of their tangents. Because the hissed sound of John's breathing was the most beautiful sound in the world.
