Alright Battlestar Galactica Geeks!

Ok, so now that I've seen this week's episode, I can say that it's very possible the final cylon has been revealed. Tigh got Caprica 6 knocked up.. that's cylon on cylon (what was to this point believed impossible), which means the offspring will be full cylon, not cylon/human hybrid like Cally and Tyrel's son, and Hera. To me that says final model.

I know in the preview they smoke screened that Deanna tells Roslyn she's one of the 5, but I actually think she's probably calling Sam out (and the reaction shot they show of Roslyn is her reacting to Sam).

But you never know.. I could be wrong... which is what I love about this show.

Yeah, that threw me too, but interesting take on the final model possibility.

Not so sure about the Admiral. Hera was important because she is the first.... halfie? mix? whatever.... and that was REALLY important for some reason they still are not talking about. The Admiral has already had 2 kids, so I would think that would take away from Hera's 'special'-ness.

Still leaning away from Baltar. However.... possiblility going the other way..... with his role as "Messiah" getting stronger, imagine if he is the preaching love and forgiveness and gets the cylons to stop their civil war. The great reconciliator between the races or somesuch. Coming from a (possible) cylon.

Remember when Tyrol was freaking out thinking that he MIGHT be a cylon? He was becoming self-aware long before the others. And why don't the Final 5 know they are cylons? What purpose is served by erasing their past? So they can 'experience' how humans do things? How will Tigh reconcile he killed so many of his own 'kind' even when he didn't know he was a cylon yet.

**Walkerxes** · 05-31-08, 01:47 PM

As of yet, Tigh continues to be willing to kill his own kind. He's essentially chosen his side and is sticking with it. Which is really not much different than Athena. And Sam is at least willing to kill cylons to protect the 5.

Tori is really the only one who's embraced her cylon-ness.

You know.... we never did get to find out what was said between Gaeta and Baltar before Gaeta shoved the pen into Baltar's neck.

Ok... is it next week yet?

Oh my god.. even better than Deanna calling Sam out as one of the five, is what she actually did. I laughed myself to tears. I'm happy ol' Zena: Warrior Cylon is back. She's always been a sort-of female Caval; kinda twisted and will do almost anything to forward the Cylon cause. But more than that, what I find enjoyable is her off sense of humor.. she's by far one of the most sarcastic/sardonic of the Cylons... and pulling that "You're one of the 5... PSYCHE, JUST KIDDING, GOT YA.. hahah you should have seen the look on your face" style joke on Roslyn what probably the best moment in that episode.

...and by the way.. did anyone else notice the wounds Baltar recieved when the Base Ship got hit by the missle? One wound on his side, a wound on each hand, unless that was just blood on his hands... setting him up for messiah satus much?

...I haven't enjoyed a sci-fi show this much since Farscape went off the air..

I missed the very early episodes and lots along the way - but am I correct is assuming this happened a long time ago, before our Earth civilization.

I just see this all ending in the "spaceman visited earth" theory of humanity on earth. I agree with the messiah thing mentioned and the name Adame just sounds familiar to me.

Deanna messing with Roslynn was great, but you're forgetting to include Baltar trying to teach religion to the Centurion.

The Battlestar Wiki has tons of information if you need to get yourself caught up.

http://en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/Timeline_(RDM)

Over 17,000 years BCH: A supernova creates the Ionian nebula
ca. 4,000 years BCH: The Thirteenth Tribe reportedly leaves Kobol and builds the Temple of Five on another planet [1]
ca. 3,000 years BCH: A beacon is left at the Lion's Head Nebula, later marking the way to Earth. At some undated point, someone travels from Earth to Kobol, passing on information about Earth, including a map of its night sky [1]
ca. 3,600 years BCH: Pythia records her prophecies
ca. 2,000 years BCH: The remaining Twelve Tribes leave Kobol [1]
2,000 years to 52 years BCH: The Twelve Colonies grow and prosper. Each colony acts as a sovereign nation, complete with inter-colonial wars

It should be the "humans came to Earth from space" angle. I think that's what it was in the old series too. With the 13th tribe already on Earth and some 3000-4000 years gone by, who knows how this will play out once the Colonials finally get there. In the original series they protected Earth fromt he Cylons, but that doesn't look like it will be exactly the case anymore.

**Walkerxes** · 06-08-08, 09:27 AM

No indeed.. it would seem to me that at the very least the rebel Cylons will be getting a crack at earth along with the Colonials. Perhaps they will ally and protect earth from the other Cylons.

And yeah... you're right about that.. Baltar teaching the Centurion about religeon was priceless. What's next? Preaching to the Raiders?

**jakt** · 06-10-08, 03:54 AM

eh, still a bit unsure.

My wife on the other hand is sure that the last cylon is Admiral Adama, and Lee Adama is the prodigal child, the shape of the things to come.
I think they are all gona die as soon as the reach earth, by us humans. :10

**Walkerxes** · 06-10-08, 08:59 AM

4 more days!

I don't think the final is Adama... it may not be Tigh and Six's unborn child either, tho I think that makes the most sense, but Adama.. eh... I think I'd find it disappointing if it is.
