To know the face of God is to know madness.

Here I am, in my living room, attempting to decipher Jane Eyre's anxiety dreams and the incident with the veil, and what do I find on television as my background noise? Laura Roslin's dream/vision in "Flesh and Bone."

( I can't remember if I've rambled about this yet or not? I'm too lazy to check. S1 *AND* S2, to 2x09, baby. )

You think maybe someone should ask Caprica!Sharon that, since she's all up and helpful and could finally tell me if Gaeta is a toaster or not?

Sadly - or maybe not so sad, because YAY - I really don't think Gaeta is a Cylon. Sadly, no. If she really is helping the Fleet, I mean absolutely truly, there's no way she wouldn't say "oh, by the way, the guy in CIC is one of us, too." 'Course, she could be not helping them, and then he's still possibly a Cylon.

And. Um. I haven't contemplated writing Sharon/Gaeta, nooo...

I had the same thought when I watched last week's episode. However, I'm just saying that someone should sit down and interrogate the helpful little cylon, don't you think? If they had time to build a ship from spare parts, they totally could've done that by now.

addendum: however, we still have no idea who left the note in adama's quarters about there being ONLY TWELVE CYLONS OMG, right? Because I feel like someone should have asked that question. Because... really, what would the motivation be for leaving that note except to mislead him?

ARGH NO. This is why I don't like to think about BSG. Watch it, yes. Think about it, NO. That way lies only nosebleeds.

Leoben (to Starbuck): "You're like a cancer that needs to be removed."

Um. Dude?

(I saw your post via friendsfriends; commenting, if that' s all right with you.)

Leoben said that this was what Kara thought about herself, because her mother had made her believe that, but he said that it was only in her head. I think that he was making parallels with what Kara herself said about cylons: that she had been programmed by her mother to think of herself that way, but that it wasn't necessarily true. He totally screwed with her head, of course, because apparently cylons like to do that to her.

I guess I should have been more clear in my flailing: I understood completely what I was saying! It made sense! That wasn't actually the point, though: the point was, on a show where one of the main characters has TERMINAL CANCER and you've got another character who may or may not be a prophet and he starts referring to things as cancer... heh. I was merely pointing out the creepy similarities, is all.

raffaella September 20 2005, 18:16:11 UTC

Ah, I didn't get that. :) Thanks for pointing out the cancer imagery, I'd never noticed the link.

And! in "Colonial Day," the question from a reporter that sparks Baltar's speech that later gets him the job as VP? "Is President Roslin's political career terminal or is there hope of resusitating it?"

I posted it at some crazy time like 3 in the morning! So, yeah. Also, it's really lame.

Oh, I really look forward to finding out what the hell's going on with the cylon's capital P Plan. I am tentatively optimistic that Ron Moore will not pull a Chris Carter on us.
