      <![CDATA[Oh! And did it seem to anyone else that Gaeta barely had his "rebellion" under control? He doesn't have the strength or the balls to lead something so chaotic and savage. I mean, he's still itching and wincing with that stump. If he isn't strong enough to take an irritated stump, then how the hell is he strong enough to reign in the murderous and frustrated Pegasus survivors?<br>
<br>
My guess is that he looses control of the situation and becomes a victim of his own uprising.

      <![CDATA[I have a feeling if anyone is going into an airlock next episode it's gonna be Adama. I seem to remember a brief shot in this season's trailer that showed a hooded Adama ready to be flushed into space. But I'm sure the Cavalry will arrive before that happens.<br>
<br>
My favorite part was when Starbuck got all randy because she was finally shooting people again. Yeehaw.

      <![CDATA[It would have been better if the rebels weren't all such assholes. I'd like to support the idea that the civilian government should be in charge, but Zarek and Gaeta and their Pegasus rejects are not someone I'd want to win. The writers managed to make the rebels (mutineers?) pretty much unsympathetic despite their legitimate concerns about the government and military being in bed together.  <br>
<br>
I think it will break out like this:  <br>
Gaeta didn't even clue in his boyfriend about the rebellion + Baltar knows Gaeta gave up the list of people to be executed + Gaeta's song for his leg + Gaeta kept Adama alive = Gaeta will be airlocked. <br>
<br>
The odds are 50/50 whether Adama or Zarek will push him out the airlock.

      <![CDATA[I too like Gaeta. I find Adama et al take themselves waaaaay too seriously, and end up being major assholes. Not to say that Gaeta doesn't take himself too seriously, but he's at least willing to give 'em the finger, instead of just sitting there. The person who made the comment about "us" cheering a military overthrow of a democratic government had it right.

      <![CDATA[I love evil peg-legged pirate Gaeta! "Arrr. This ship be mine!" This was a totally awesome episode. My favorite line was Tigh's "What do they got, a forest fire down there!?"<br>
<br>
@kiala Yes. Did you see how embarrassed all the characters were. God. No more kissy/kissy Roslin. Seeing her bald and laying in bed naked was bad enough. Maybe that shit worked for Sigourney Weaver, but it doesn't work for her.

      <![CDATA["Cave of Naked Boomers" is going to end up being a dive bar on Hawthorne somewhere. <br>
<br>
My favorite little detail from the Q&A. An unused take from the Adama/Tigh marine beatdown scene had Adama walking past that one dead marine, and nonchalantly, as he strolled by, putting a second bullet in the marine's brain. <br>
<br>
Verheiden: That's a little much, isn't it Eddie?<br>
Olmos: I wanted to make sure he stayed dead. <br>
<br>
Cort should have the Q&A Edited and viewable pretty soon here. You'll get a link when I get a link. <br>
<br>
LAURA ROSLIN IS COMING FOR ALL OF YOU.
