[QUOTE]Originally posted by Malnurtured Snay: [QB] I jotted down notes as I watched the episode because I'm too lazy to write a review (ala you, Sol). So, aside for some gripping on some timeline issues, here we go: Machine landscapers? Six's survivor guilt? "Inspiring." Haunted by Baltar's Ghost? Cottle's bedside manner needs some work - "like hell it will." "Here of the Cylon" ... first celebrity? Didn't think their 'culture' valued that. Seduction left as much mark on her (Six) as it did on him (Baltar). Neither of their "ghosts" seem to be a true representative of the way their other truly feels, but rather, how they percieve them to feel. Sharon is Model Number 8. Miniseries Six is called "Caprica." "One might call it inhuman ... oh, right, you are." Best. Line. Ever. Anders! Didn't expect to see him again. Wasn't expecting birth until third season ... Sharon Mk 1's Apartment. Redress of Starbuck's from <em>Valley of Darkness</em>? Maybe Galactica's pilots time-shared. "Don't go religious with this one." Ooooh, smashing glass. Sharon uses Navy slang on Caprica. "Head." Heh. Baltar/Six simultalk: awesome! Vanity plate in bombed out garage: SEXYMOM. Why is that car's headlights on? Light? Do Cylons need light to see? "What kind of people are you?" Cylon fifth column? Surprise adoption -- did anyone else see this coming a mile away? As soon as Cottle got that list from the female Billy. No Lee. No Starbuck. Barely any Bill Adama. I'm okay with that -- good to see Sharon Valerii get some much needed screentime. "Our people need a new beginning." Okay, I do have a problem with the timeline. In <a href="http://www.tv.com/battlestar-galactica-2003/epiphanies/episode/560062/summary.html">Epiphanies</a>, we learn that it's been six months since Roslin was diagnosed with cancer. Roslin was diagnosed in the miniseries. So, we know that at the thirteenth episode of the second season, six months had passed since the Cylon attack. At the start of this episode, we learn that nine months has passed since the Cylon attack. Hence, this episode takes place three months after Epiphanies. However, when Sharon Mk. 1 is resurrected into a new body, the "resurrection" sequence is titled "Ten Weeks Ago" ... ten weeks is two and a half months, which means Sharon Mk. 1 would've been killed after Epiphanies. In fact, she was killed <em>nine</em> episodes prior, in <a href="http://www.tv.com/battlestar-galactica-2003/resistance/episode/439473/summary.html">Resistance</a>. Maybe I'm overthinking this. Nine months makes sense from Sharon Mk. II's pregnancy story, though -- she and Helo got it on pretty early in the 1st season. Timing's a little iffy, but it'll live. [/QB][/QUOTE]
