Okay, I just have to ask: where is everyone getting the idea that Reegar is in any way 'smitten' with Tali? He obviously respects her, probably thinks of her as a friend, but I in no way shape or form ever got the impression that he had a crush on her.
It's kind of like how the Garrus/Tali thing came out of the blue, there was practically no build-up and then suddenly they're flirting. Reegar shows Tali an ounce of respect and suddenly everyone thinks he's in love with her.
I am confuse.
Wasn't it obvious in the 4-5 sentences of dialogue they had together?

I see a lot of the friendship between Tali and Garrus or Reegar, but both games didn't leave enough time for a proper build-up for either character, especially Reegar.
Oh, damn. I just had the thought of Reegar trying to hook up with Tali while Shepard was in lockdown, effectively trying to make Tali go the Jacob route. Although I think Tali would have the brains, love, and loyalty to refuse, if she was already involved with Shepard. Never enjoyed having to think about things that happened off-screen. Lot's of tihngs could happen.
