liveblogging the new ep of Caprica (spoilers, of course; under the cut)
Holy crap Sister Clarice WHAT KIND OF RELIGION IS THAT. Virtual heaven as an avatar?
Holy crap Daniel Graystone TRYING TO SELL WHAT to WHO
Why do the elders on Gemenon look like extras from "Kingdom of Heaven" or "The Name of the Rose"? Complete with ye olde hooded cloaks?
Bleh, Papadama, like you're one to talk about "WE NEED TO GRIEVE AND MOVE ON". Why would anyone trust you when your awesome brother exists and can do anything better than you w/ better judgement to boot
speaking of which, there he is! SAM <333
and we return to the clergy-themed Renaissance faire that is Gemenon. I really hope we don't spend too much time in here
Serge, you called him "Samuel Adams". That cracks me up
DANIEL. PLEASE SHAVE.
... threatening Granny Graystone? Wtf? "We sign our deals in blood." Sorry, it would sound way more convincing coming from Sam. And why does this remind me of the shoot-the-dog scene with Zoebot?
Oh, it's the dumb ritual from the preview clip. For some reason it didn't seem all that visceral or moving in the clip and it doesn't now either. Probably because we've already seen Crazy STO Barnabas do way weirder things (wire scene) and more disturbing/violent (Clarice bridge scene).
"God has touched you" = apparently the magic words to get into Sister Clarice's pants
they called the cylon a toaster :P ~foreshadowing~
Way to bite the hand that feeds you, Daniel! Poor Cyrus.
Whoa. Name of the Rose guy didn't see that coming. Neither did I. This is what happens when you cross Atia of the Julii!
... How did avatar!Zoe get out of the toaster and into New Cap City? And is this fight scene an attempt at fanservice / a sexy preview clip, or is it actually going to serve some purpose? Also, I note the Tamara-flower on gunman-guy's forehead
Oh, so does Zoe. Interesting that this phenomenon now has a name. "Deadwalker"? Why don't I remember hearing that term from the previous half of the season?
... DANIEL. Are you really sitting around shirtless talking to your presumed-dead wife's video voicemail?
... AMANDA. Are you really sitting there watching it? Amanda! <33333 Where ARE you, woman?
.. you are with Clarice. I see. This was sort of expected, but I'm curious to find out how you got there! This should be good.
Aww, Clarice. "It's good to be home."
WHY DID THE EPISODE HAVE TO END. THAT WAS TOO SHORT. I LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH.
Things I really want to see in the next ep:
- TAMARA. With or without Zoe.
- Story of Amanda and Clarice getting from the bridge to Gemenon.
Things I don't want to see as much of:
- Lacey hanging out with Barnabas' crazies, unless they actually do something that advances the plot this time
- Joseph Adama trying to look tough
