A cracking episode and a great payoff from all of last week's setting up. I wonder, though, is the Cylon baseship really the safest place for Roslin, Baltar and the others? You'd think destroying that ship would be one of Gaeta's next moves already, and even moreso if they're all aboard it too.

Man I'm torn. While I don't approve of Gaeta's actions at least I can understand where he's coming from. And yet, you almost got Adama killed, D-bag.

Aside from Galactica, it's surely the best-defended ship in the fleet. Plus, it's the only one that they can be pretty sure is not being run by the anti-Cylon coup.

That wounded basestar is still very powerful and it seems Admiral Gaeta has his hands full with inexperienced crew manning Galactica.

The baseship is well defended (it looks a bit like it's being repaired, actually), but with Zarek's biggest rival and the only person who can discredit Gaeta (Batlar) on board along with the Cylons, blowing up the baseship would get rid of a lot of problems for the leaders of the coup.
A showdown between the two ships definitely looks like it's on the cards next week.

Galactica could also easily dispatch any civilian ship with little effort. At least the baseship can make a fight out of it.

Also? Adama and Tigh made a frakkin' awesome pair of action heroes this week.

I almost felt sorry for those two guards, I knew they didn't stand a chance. Actually I'm surprised they didn't put a larger guard on those two.

So I had a thought regarding Cavil. Everyone seems to assume he's going to show up and try to kill everyone. But he's not stupid. Excepting possibly Boomer, he has no women! Unless he knows more about the unknown third parties than we do, killing everyone in the fleet eliminates any chance for Cylon civilization as well as human.

Are ALL the Sixes and Eights part of the rebellion?

Maybe he's just so pissed he doesn't care.

I was going to say that Cavil's too old to care anyway, but then I remembered him and Ellen. (Time to re-repress THAT memory, I think!)
