I didn't like Bill's response to Lee about Kara leading the squadron in the lighter scene. I think him saying, "Because you're my son," was meant to be sweet, reassuring response, but it didn't come across that way to me at all.
I was mostly just confused by that answer, but I had assumed it had to do with me not getting some aspects of the father-son bonding. *g*
I'm now leaning towards thinking that he was winging it, trying to be reassuring even though he couldn't in all honesty deny all that previous stuff about how fantastic a pilot Starbuck is, but it's really not an ideal response to Lee's insecurities.
