Overall I'd say it was an odd and interesting episode, certainly not epic. Some good acting from Saul, Six, and Roslin, but Lee Adama ruins every scene
he's in.

Baltar basically getting away with his shit constantly annoys. I want him to burn for what he's done and be seen by all as a giant selfish fraud.
The Saul/Six/Ellen stuff was phenomenal. Ellen looked amazing as FauxSix. |

So Tigh figured out how to do the cylon projection thingymajig? Or was it just his guilty conscience?

The way the "Six in Baltar's head" picked him up post beatdown was very interesting

Last night was the first time I watched Battlestar Galactica, and from that episode, I love this show! Those scenes with Number Six and Saul were amazing,
and that made me wanna watch more episodes and get the DVDs. I agree that the scene where the schizo Six picked up Baltar was really cool. I wonder if
he'll have he and his fellow monotheists try to take down the polytheist religion. (Pardon me if that sounds silly from a first time BG-viewer. I did watch
the little "What the Frak is Going on with Battlestar Galactica?" video on youtube, so I have a little idea.)

Is anyone else starting to get pissed they are pulling a Lost saying they are going to reveal every week, when they don't reveal jack squat?

I've come to view that in about the same way I view Probst blathering about best season ever, most shocking twist, etc. It doesn't bug me. Plus
strictly construed, it could mean revealed ... at some time in the future.
I think that's the first time we've seen chip in Baltar's head actually physically intervene and remain invisible. There was one time she knocked his head into a bathroom mirror, but they were alone, and could've been him doing via control. But picking him up and no one else being able to see her -- that's new territory. Holy crap Chief's meltdown was tough to watch. Poor skinjob. Also I don't understand how they thought Callie could've committed suicide. The control to the airlock is on the inside of the control booth. (Note to Timmy -- make certain you start with the DVD's entitled The Miniseries, go through the seasons, and finish with the special entitled Razor, which the order of things prior to this season. Be prepared not to have a social life for the next week or two.) |

I think the airlock can be controlled from in and out of the airlock. Remember, Callie originally intended to kill herself and her child when she entered the
airlock.
Can someone tell me, when Chief Tyrol totally snapped at something Adama said, did Adama really say that to the Chief or was it something he imagined he heard, like when Saul imagined he shot Adama on the bridge? |

Yeah, I guess that's true on the airlock. I wasn't so sure she was in there to commit suicide with the baby so much as to get as far away as possible
from the three skinjobs.
The Chief/Adama sequence: there was definitely an exchange that Chief had in his head, when Adama accused him of being a toaster, but then the conversation went dark, staying in real life and his true thoughts on Callie. Everyone else in the bar went silent, so it wasn't happening just in his head. Meanwhile, who loves 6? The only chick who can be beating the bejusus out of you while wearing a beatific smile, delighting in her her belief that she's helping you. ETA: you think maybe she somehow knows Tigh's a toaster?

I don't think she knows for sure, but she probably senses it on some level.

Six probably figured Tigh had to be a cylon after being ravished by his God-like sexual prowess during their (literally) week-long frak party in the brig.

Sorry I am a week behind, and this may have been mentioned, but did anyone notice the weapons locker number when the flesh jobs on Galactica met was 1701D?
The NCC number on Picard's Enterprise from Star Trek. I thought it was a nice subtle shout out to Star Trek.

 I did notice that too. Not so subtle nod to Moore's old job. :)

I found the most recent episode unwatchable. I hopped around with the TiVo button for awhile but every scene was insufferable. The end should be more
interesting instead of less.

The episode was a whole lotta nothing.
Only interesting thing was seeing Tigh take a breather from Six's "welcome to the Cylons" frak party and knowing that the passionate sex between them must've been mindblowingly multiorgasmic for him to be able to live with the soul-crushing irony of killing his wife for collaborating with the cylons, when he in fact is a cylon. Like y'know? |

overall a meh episode, but probably the first time I ever really believed Gaius Baltar. And I adore him, regardless.
Next week looks like a doozy. |
