watch the episode again at the very end there conversation mckay gets what she means.
heres the conversation
BOTANY LAB. Rodney walks in.
McKAY: Katie?
(Katie wheels a trolley of plants in from the next room.)
BROWN: Hullo. Rodney. I see you’re feeling better.
McKAY (awkwardly): Uh, yes. I, uh, well, I mean, it was probably just, you know, an allergic thing. I’m fine.
BROWN: And the quarantine? Is it true there was no outbreak?
McKAY: Uh, no. It was a malfunction. Uh, a planetary anomaly, um, an ionospheric disturbance. I’ve actually recalibrated the system so it’ll take into effect future activity, so we should be fine.
BROWN: Someone said it was Doctor Zelenka that finally turned off the self destruct?
McKAY: Technically, yes, but it was actually more of a group effort. But that’s not why I came here. I, um ... Here’s the thing. Over the last year and a half, I have become aware that I have certain ... I don’t wanna use the word “flaws” ... uh, “shortcomings”, perhaps? For example, on occasion I can be negative ... and demanding and-and-and a tad arrogant, but I’m also finding that just being aware of your, uh, shortcomings is just the first minute step on the road to betterment, and the real trick seems to be to actually do something about it.
BROWN (smiling): I know. It’s difficult.
McKAY: The point is, I came here earlier today to propose marriage to you, but after what happened, I realise that I may have been rushing things. I just don’t think I’m ready for this.
BROWN: I know.
McKAY: You do?
BROWN (nodding): I don’t think I’m ready either.
McKAY: Oh. OK. That’s good. (He briefly laughs nervously.) It’s not that my feelings have changed or diminished ...
BROWN: No. No, of course not.
McKAY: It’s just, I mean ... (He sighs.) If we got married now, I would make your life miserable, and you are far too good a person for that.
BROWN (softly): Don’t be so hard on yourself.
(Rodney smiles.)
McKAY: Yeah. Easier said than done, right?
(Katie smiles briefly, then her face becomes sad. Rodney gazes at her.)
McKAY: OK. So – rain check on lunch?
BROWN (smiling): Absolutely.
McKAY (smiling): All right.
(He turns to walk away.)
BROWN: Rodney?
McKAY (turning back to her): Hmm?
(She looks at him for a moment.)
BROWN: Bye.
McKAY: Right. (He waves to her.) Bye.
(He turns and walks to the other side of the lab doors, then turns back to look at her again. She gazes at him as the doors close between them. Rodney turns, his face sad, and walks away.)
when she says bye she says it with more emphasis meaning that there done which is why rondey turns his face sad like and walks away.
