It was still VERY hard to hear the Chief talk about Cally like that...and I'
m presuming someone's looking after the baby whilst he's having his freak out.
6 as Mrs Ty. Ooky. Reinstates the She's the 5th Cylon theory.
I kinda hate Lee playing the follower of truth and justice. As right as he is, yeah just want to tell him to shut-up.
Waiting for the Centurions to take over everything!
Can someone drive Saturday's episode up the coast on Sunday??

I can't believe this hasn't come up in discussion yet, but here goes:
6 Openly admits to not only having an affair with Gaius Baltar, but states that the two of them were responsible for all the destruction that has befallen the human race. Yet Tylon in his out of head experience totally misses it and it is not mentioned again.
Again, it's one of those statements that can totally change the direction of the show but was completely overlooked

I guess Sol's got his own problems...plus there's little he can do about it (apart from being really peed off at him)...a Cylon told another Cylon and he's got no grounds to take it to the old man. It'll come back...many things do in this show.
...as for this week's ep:
Dang. That "Starbuck's nuts" button has a brick sitting on it now, right?

Oh yeah, it must be the size of texas and doesn't look like coming off anytime soon.
On a side note, i would love to be a proverbial "redshirt" character one day in a show like this...

Leoben?? wanting an alliance with the fleet? And Starbuck going along with it without consulting with Adama????
Gaius and the chief shaking hands?? and Gauis REALLY believes all this stuff now it seems. NO agenda at all??
Too many wtf's for one episode!
I'm imagining the chief fit and thin and shaved headed and some kind of religious zealot in a few episodes.
Dark, and intelligent, and unbalanced. Liking this season.

Finally got around to reading the description. The Weighted Companion Cube is really jammed on Starbuck's Crazy Button. Stay tuned to see how Adama and the Tylon react to this...

Episode 406 is a very solid 43 minutes. A few quick notes before I go to bed:
The pre-credits sequence: tense. It really helps that this is the final season. More than any other point in the story so far, we know nearly anyone could be killed off at any time. Starbuck aside, there was no guarantee that anyone on that ship could have walked away alive. (In Gaeta's case, the jury's still out.)
The fracturing of Cylon society was handled well. This isn't an organised resistance. It's a huge mess with in-fighting, extremely tenuous peace agreements and pointless sacrifices.
Hearing Baltar's voice over a phantom broadcast puts a lot in perspective. The lone transistor next to an empty bed, referencing Roslin's dream: creepy stuff. It's all too easy to see why Madam President winds up knocking on his door.
Cryptic clues! I yearn for this sort of thing. This new dose of supernatural prophecy is all the better for not actually being that cryptic. The characters deciphered a clear meaning then and there. The search for Earth has a real sense of momentum now. I can't wait to see where it goes from here.
And a genuinely touching little moment to close it off.
Even by the show's very high standards, this episode fulfilled the primary function of good serialised TV particularly well: I'm desperate to see more.

During the season four gap, we'll be getting a new series of Webisodes, and maybe, just maybe, up to three Razor style flashback movies. More here.
It's wild speculation at this point, but could these new bridging webisodes mean a mid-season chronological leap?

There's only so much blood that can be rung from this particular stone, and Sci-Fi have just about got the lot. Just because they are utterly bereft of anything even remotely worthy of filling Galactica's shoes, doesn't mean they should subject us to any more painful retcon abuse.
Is it too much to ask for a final good season, without gratuitous schedule filling? Just give Corin a call and make Mansquito 2: The Suckening* already!

So, Gaeta likes singing to numb his pain...
An important clue, a red herring or simply nothing at all.
