Lee's anger here had echoes of his flip-out at Sam in Rapture when he screamed that he'd known Kara and cared for longer.
Ooh, good catch. You and wisteria_ already pointed out that Sam - and Adama - are allowed to grieve openly and publicly, whereas Lee only has official claim to Kara as a friend and colleague. Plus, he has to uphold propriety, as Dee's husband and as a public figure (the CAG, the Commander's son). I thought Jamie was awesome in this ep, and I'm rather frustrated with reactions I've been seeing calling him (Lee) whiny or worse, a bad actor (Jamie).
I'm okay with not seeing Dee's reaction in this ep. I think there will be more fallout later.
