Looks like you and everyone else named most of my favorit parts! Things I would add are the scenes where Rodney and John try to convince Wier to let them do something.
From "The Defiant One" after they've picked up the distress signal:
WEIR: So what are you saying? McKAY: We have to go down and take a look. WEIR (cynically): You have to. It took you almost fifteen hours to get there. SHEPPARD: All the more reason we should have a look. We're already here. GAUL: I should mention that the planet's atmosphere is extremely ionised. Radio communication could be difficult. (Frantically, Rodney draws his hand across his throat to try to shut Brendan up.) WEIR: And it would take at least fifteen hours to send out any sort of rescue. McKAY: We'll be fine. WEIR: Major? SHEPPARD: I agree with McKay. WEIR: Of course you do! How could either of you resist exploring a crashed alien spaceship?! SHEPPARD: Exactly. McKAY: I assure you our interest is purely professional, Elizabeth. SHEPPARD: Seriously, the amount of intel we could gather from their weapons system -- codes, shields ... WEIR: Alright. Proceed with extreme caution, please, and check in with me in three hours. McKAY: Three hours is hardly enough time ... SHEPPARD (interrupting him): Will do! Jumper One out.
And then from Coup D'etat when they're planing the raid:
SHEPPARD: The Special Ops guy's followed Ladon to M6R-867. Looks like he's occupied a warehouse in a bombed-out abandoned city. McKAY: It was most likely destroyed by the Wraith and never re- inhabited. SHEPPARD: He did a quick fly-over in a cloaked Jumper and sure enough there are about twenty life signs in the building. McKAY: Well, twenty life signs on the whole *planet*, actually. WEIR: So Cowen's intel was accurate? McKAY: Yeah. It appears that way, yes. SHEPPARD: Even if these men are highly trained and armed to the teeth ... McKAY: ... which most probably they are not ... SHEPPARD: ... they're no match for our guys. (Elizabeth looks at John in surprise for a moment.) WEIR: A raid? SHEPPARD: Oh, yes, a raid! If this is their main base of operations, I'm willing to bet the ZeePM is there. WEIR: And, what, just steal it? McKAY: Well, the Brotherhood stole it from us, Ladon stole it from the Brotherhood – it's not really stealing, it's, um ... SHEPPARD: ... recovery! Look, we tell Ladon we're ready to do business; he needs to send a dozen guys here to carry back supplies ... McKAY: ... along with the ZedPM. SHEPPARD: He won't do that but, sure, we can ask. When they get here, we detain them, leaving eight men in the building for two small strike teams to deal with. WEIR: OK. It's worth the risk. Go get us a ZeePM!
I sware they are like to little boys trying to con their mother into letting them do something they shouldn't be doing! :O)
