By extension, Cally can also not be a Cylon (most likely, anyway), because she and the Chief have their son.<br /><br />The caption for Athena and Helo suggests that Natalie is the one pissed at them. She's the only one reacting in their direction. (I guess it could be Tigh, but that seems much less likely.)<br /><br />And poor Chief looks like he's not going to take his revelation very well. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Mars Needs Women</b> <br /><small>Member # 1505</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2008,0,8,9,52,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">January 08, 2008</span> <span class="timeformat-0">09:52 AM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Reminds of the picture they did for one season of the Sopranos which everyone claimed had a hidden message. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#A3B9CC"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Lee</b> <br /><small>Member # 393</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2008,0,8,13,50,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">January 08, 2008</span> <span class="timeformat-0">01:50 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> They're very clever, when they do these things. I remember, my wife and I had given up on <i>Six Feet Under</i> after the first season or two, the episode which did it for us was the one after Nate Fisher has his operation, and you see all these potential futures depending on the outcome of it. Problem was, the actual reality that was then revealed felt like a let-down for us, so we stopped. Until a season later when they did this fantastic promo featuring the whole cast effectively doing a music video, miming to Nina Simone's "Something Good." We decided then we had to give the show another chance. Glad we did, the series finale was amazing.<br /><br />Anyway, a major preview of S4 I've not seen before, with all sorts of potential spoilers: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K53SUlCIAmI" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K53SUlCIAmI</a> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Mars Needs Women</b> <br /><small>Member # 1505</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2008,0,8,14,16,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">January 08, 2008</span> <span class="timeformat-0">02:16 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Whoa a lot of craziness coming our way.

So if this can be taken at face value, the final Cylon isn't either Adama, Starbuck, Baltar or Roslin. Who, among established characters, does that leave as even minor possibilities?

So, that would mean she's not a hybrid, either, so her mom is out of the running.<br /><br />And, based on pure, raw speculation, I posit that Ellen Tigh isn't a Cylon, also, as it would be unlikely for two Cylon models to get together and not realize <i>some</i>thing at some point. Which, I suppose, would put Cain out of the running, too.

You're probably right about Callie being out, though. Billie is a possibility. As is Dee, I suppose.
