I want a nice vacation villa in my brain to go to, too.
Do I have to betray 12 planets to get one?
Maybe not worth it..
Okay, what is it with the freaking flasbacks recently? And why the armchair? Ejection seat?
Huh. Lots of stuff they are trying to use to make themselves out as better than the cylons, seperate from them. Which is understandable.
Okay, no "execution" then.
They've lost all their humanity.. no, they're representitive of the worst parts of our humanity. Ugh.
Cain just reveals herself as batshittier and batshittier.

Woah - very very interesting imagery for the opening shot. "We kill people for a living." "We don't have this, then we really are no different from the Cylons." Not gonna be a lightweight episode, is it? Holy crap. Helo and Chief . . .

Gosh. That looks like fun. Floating on a dark sea. Nice crucifixtion imagery.
This looks less nice. Floating in infinite dark space.
Oooh! Nice observation about being no different from the Cylons without trust and love (?). So, just how genetically human are the Cylons, anyway?
So, what are they going to do with them?

I want a nice vacation villa in my brain to go to, too. ;D Well, if you're gonna be all picky about it . . . Execution, maybe. Or just beating the crap out of them? Or raping them? I mean, that seems to be their way of dealing with prisoners. Lots of emphasis on differentiating humans from Cylons. Which would fit with a theme of moving toward a hybrid or merging.

Man. You can kill someone doing that. Internal bleeding and all.
Oooooh, officer really really mad.
Of course, the question that the Pegasus folks really don't want to ask themselves is why they wanted to rape/have sex with a "machine" to begin with.
Doubt they use that technique on the "regular" cylons.
"If we let our conscience get in the way." A telling use of words.

Okay.. the Colonel (this is the XO?) is.... wow.
"carries a penalty on this ship which is quite severe..." just lets it drift out there without emphasis...
Cain! Woohoo!!!! She's just batshit. Best word for her.
You've PUT a lot of them in bodybags yourself.
"let our conscience get in the way, what happens?"
We remain human?
WOW!!!! AWESOME!!!!!!! Cain's ORDERING her to shoot her in the head!!

Apollo is questioning the "why" of it, which makes sense. Part of the remaining human thing.
So Apollo finds out it comes from the pres herself.. that shook him.

Beating the crap out of them with soap in a towel. Good lord! That is totally against regs and beyond over the line! Oh yeah. They need to be taken down a few pegs, but this really isn't a way I would agree with. Treating them like Cylons? Because as we know, it's ok to beat the shit out of Cylons. Another reference to differences between humans and Cylons. Huh. I'm beginning to think that Cylons are going to be found to be more human than they think and won't that throw them. How mechanized can someone be and still get pregnant? The notion that Cylons can't be raped because they're machines? #taz# Huh. Cain and Starbuck alone. Starbuck really does have a mouth, huh? Tough choices and the horrible sin. Can't let conscience get in the way. Don't flinch. How prescient is this advice, huh? Did she sound like she was about to cry? Son doesn't agree with the shoot to kill order. I'm with him. I want another way. They need to unite the ships and their denizens and somehow utilize Cain's expertise without giving her control again. There has to be a way. And, so it begins. Whoa. Good hunting!

Huh, that prep scene for the Marines, he was repeating Cain's words to them in the captioning, but not aloud. Weird.
And the assasins wish each other "good hunting".
Any thoughts, Starbuck, where the Colonel might be going with a buncha marines before a ship-to-ship engagement? *NUDGE*

Differences with your superior officers. Hmmmmm. It's a bit more than that. Oh, and now Apollo gets to find out that it was Roslin's idea. I wonder how that's gonna sit with him. Awwwwww. **sniff, sniff** Adama says "it's good to see you" and I go all mushy. OK, we didn't see him hand pick the marines, so we don't really know what he's gonna do. Very interresting imagery. Cain sends a whole troop - Adama sends a lone officer, with the hope of someone to back her up. Tells you exactly what the ultimate plan of each of them is - Adama isn't looking to stage a coup, he just wants the leader gone. Cain is . . . more ambitious.
