[QUOTE]Originally posted by Lee: [QB] This was probably thr stupidest episode to date, if not the worst. Compared to this, "Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down" made sense. So, dig it, right? Humans have hexagonal blood and Cylons have octagonal. So if we inject someone with blood from a human-Cylon hybrid (just out of interest, what shape would this blood be? Heptagonal?) this will near-instantly cure them of cancer. And you don't even have to worry about blood types or tissue rejection - unless that's what the convulsions were all about, before the Cylon antigens started working. This could herald a massive change in the Roslin character's arc on the show. The whole point was, she was dying so did whatever she wanted to ensure the survival of her people. Now she has posterity to worry about. Meanwhile, Gina goes from being suicidal - and wanting to help humans destroy the Flying Toastrack so that there'd be no hope of resurrection for this incarnation of herself - to actively helping a Cylon appeasement group (despite knowing such an aim would be pointless). It's another suggestion, then, that Baltar-Six doesn't really exist - otherwise, Gina-Six would know that she existed, would someday be extracted, and would immediately report Gina for not trying to stop or warn of the attack on the Resurrection Ship. (Unless, that is, she'd been in-cover long before the attack on the colonies so had no way of knowing Six had pulled a Harvey on Baltar) Colm Feore is a reasonable well-known character actor, they're doing well with their guest-stars. Can't help but think, though, that they could have given the group some other stated aim and used it to being back Tom Zarek. I can't see Zarek pushing for peace negotiations with the Cylons. Yet another double-about-turn by Baltar. It's getting tedious. "Oh, the President wrote me a slightly-patronising letter, so I'll go right back to betraying my species." If Billy's a Cylon, that letter could be a fake, though. . . We all know where that nuke's gonna end up, don't we? The [i]Pegasus[/i]. I thought this ep was going to reveal who Six met with way back in the miniseries, after leaving her meeting with Baltar that Roslin observed. Perhaps that'll happen in the upcoming Cylon POV show.
