I think that was the point, although the fucked-up-ness on the planet was definitely needed to give the whole thing continuity. It was about how much impact the discovery of nuked!Earth had on everyone, even on steady, sweet, reliable Dee.
Yeahbut...I dunno. Felt like, "Oh, we need to kill someone. Who've we got left that we can get rid of?" Bah.
I think she's pretty dead. But who am I to speculate? These guys are tricksy. *g*
I'm starting to think everyone's going to come back at some point, because everyone's really a Cylon. :D
I actually liked that scene, but I wouldn't have liked it as much if Tigh hadn't refused the drink Adama offered. That to me shows real character development. Not that Tigh will never drink again--he's an alcoholic, it ain't that easy--but still. I thought it was kind of powerful, and that part was pretty subtle, because it wasn't dwelt on at all.
Ah, I didn't even notice that bit. Um, good for Tigh? I was mostly annoyed at the overacting contest going on between Olmos and Hogan. (Olmos was definitely winning.)
I don't think she's a Cylon, but I'm curious as to what the hell she IS.
She HAS to be a goddess. Surely.
That's what I thought at first, but according to TPTB, Ellen's the fifth. Apparently they decided that between seasons 3 and 4.
Aw, man. That's why I try to avoid reading anything extra-curricular that TPTB have to say about the show. Then I can still hope it's all a dream.
sdwolfpup has the same theory here. I really like it.
I could live with it. I really seem to have lost any knack for speculation about this show over hte long hiatus; I think grad school's fried my brain.
Leoben always knows something that he isn't telling. This time it looks like he was wrong about a lot of things and it's freaking him out (and I think the way it was done was great because it shows that the humans aren't the only ones having meltdowns over everything).
He heh. Poor Leoben.
But I think you're right, he knows a lot more stuff. Screw the Caprica prequel; the new series should be Leoben Explains it All.
Hee. Can he have a pet alligator and have his buddy Kara come visiting through the window?
