Definitely adored this ep too, for many of the same reasons you did.
Kara and Tigh: I wondered about that myself, why she went to him. Especially when she seemed to be a lot further along in the pulling-herself-together-ness. I have two theories, though...one, that she was afraid PappAdama wouldn't want to believe his guy was compromised (but Tigh knew the guy and would still know how to handle him)...and second, intentionally or unintentionally...perhaps Kara was trying to save Tigh? Certainly that seems to be the effect, or there's the chance now. (I really had thought he was going to spiral into self destruction this season...go all the way, I mean. Now I think he might end up back in a decent place. And I love that, even though he had been one of my least favorite chars.) So yeah...I would love to think that somehow Kara was trying to give Tigh what he needed to respect himself again.
Cylons: The impression I've gotten is that each Basestar has a bunch of all the various 'skinjobs', though we mostly just see the very highest one or two of each, since they're busy with Baltar. (Six AND Three VERY busy, apparently. Yikes.) It makes sense, considering how many copies we saw dying together on the bridge of the infected 'star.
