Overview

  • Stuff blow up.
  • Xena gets unboxed.
  • Elosha returns in Roslin's vision. Personally, if I was to hallucanate about any character Elosha wouldn't be high on the list, but whatever.


Summery

Our stranded heros jump all over the galaxy as their hybrid goes insane. The hybrid says some crazy stuff, none of which I cared about.

Then there's a space battle. It's pretty cool. I stopped watching after that. Apparently Roslin and William Adama kiss. Wow, we've been waiting three and a half years for that? Oh, and there was some filler with Baltar admitting he caused the genocide of humanity, Roslin witnessing her own death, and Helo getting a back rub. But cool stuff exploded. Like Star Wars, but isn't, since this show is more sophisticated.

Notes

  • There's probably some allegory to ancient history in this episode. Find it and win a special prize!
  • This episode occurs at the same time as Blah Blah Whaa. The shows were designed to be watched at the exact same time. If you listen closely, the two episodes' dialogue spells out a recipe for smoked salmon.


Analysis

  • The Colonials deny they destroyed the Hub. Helo has stated he will search for the real killer as long as it takes him.


Questions

  • Why does this episode not feature more religious crap from Baltar?
  • Seriously, Elosha?!


Noteworthy Dialogue

  • Roslin and Adama tenderly greeting each other on the basestar's hangar deck:
Adama: Missed you.
Roslin: Me too.
Roslin [Embracing Adama]: I love you.
Adama [Breaking the embrace; looks into her eyes]: I have syphilis.
Roslin: Eh who cares, I'm gonna die anyway.
