That could be very dangerous to the humanoid models in the long run. What happens if the Centurions and Raiders decide to "rebel" against the skinjobs, like the Cylons rebelled against the humans? Does it end?

Roslin and Adama are so very very domestic now. Sit down and talk! Yeah! Whoa. This conversation between Roslin and Adama is a nice bookend to his conversation with Kara. Lots of hard and ugly truth and questioning coming out. "Get out of my head." Damn. Just, damn. And now the third crucial "paired "conversation - Kara and Lee. Ah, the Kara/Lee shippers all just went to their happy place. Civilian Lee gets an extraordinary good-bye. Considering all he's seen and done, the good and the bad, it's quite the compliment. Oh, Dualla. **gets a bit sniffly** "Looks like you got the house." We want you to stop lobotomizing the raiders. She gave you an opportunity to stop. And now . . . Cylon coup, Cylon civil war, Cylon prolotariat rising up!

I like what Adama is doing, sending Kara out into space to find her way back to Earth, while publicly and to Kara, backing the Prez.

Oh ick. Crying - "just something I do during sex". Ewwwwww! So, she really did end up having sex with Baltar. Conversation over feelings and Cylons and one true God. That's some pillow talk. One side dumbed down the Raiders. The other side smarted up the Toasters. Everything is falling apart nicely. Including Kara. Yay! Adama knows he needs to check out Starbuck's story. "I won't lose you again. Now, go. Find the way to Earth."

This reconfiguration thing can't be good. And, Boomer vs Boomer? Oy. Well, that model was already the first to swerve from the Cylon path, so she was already unusual that way. But, yeah, differences even between the Boomers versions of that model? It's like the differences are expanding. I loved that all the skin jobs realized, in their own way, how completely startling this was. But Cavil and his side didn't realize what doors that opened for other types of divergence.

So, is it just me, or does it look like Adama is beginning to have some bit of doubt about Madame President? You called it! And their oddly domestic scene got totally disfunctional domestic by the end of it.

Oh. My. God. This is such an interesting twist with the raiders taking arms against Cavill and company at Six's command! So, they're sentient and not just programmed fighters. Very interesting. Oops. They're Centurions. And, they have the ability to reason! Wow! That was just so totally amazingly wowsome! I mean, the moment the Centurion came in, I was all "watch out", but it was like Cavil just couldn't imagine what was coming!

Does it end? And then the Centurions turn against the Raiders, or vice versa, and then . . . Anarchy! Mass hysteria! Dogs and cats, living together!

Yeah, NOW we're getting somewhere regarding the Cylon uprising and why the Centurions haven't tried to mow down the skinjobs like they did their human oppressors! Viva la revoluciĆ³n!

Hm, I don't see the Centurions turning against the Raiders. I saw the Centurions offing the 1, 4, and 5 models as revenge against what they were trying to do to the Raiders, and for what had already been done to the Centurions. Why would the Raiders turn against the Centurions? They helped stop their dumbdown. If anything, I'd still beware both the Centurions AND the Raiders, even if I were a 2, 3 or 6. Especially the Centurions, who the 2, 3 and 6 models did originally allow to be fitted with the whatchagigger inhibitor dealies and only removed them when it suited their own purposes. *hopes she got the model numbers right* But I agree with you on the whole can o' worms thing.

So, is the title a reference to ST:V or more like "six of one, half dozen of the other?"
Teaser
Callback to the expedition on Kobol.
Kara brings up the very good point that Roslin's been willing to make decisions based on very scant evidence before. Is the difference that Roslin hasn't experienced it herself.
This confrontation is going a lot better than I thought it would.
Shooting the picture of Adama and Roslin. That's ominous. And when was that picture taken.
And now Kara's acting like a lunatic. Too bad that Adama couldn't have seen her when she was talking to Roslin.
Ah, the ringing. That sounds familiar to Tigh.

Part I
Ooh, the hybrid again.
Thinking that the Hybrid knows something about the Final Five.
Now the Seven know the Final Five are in the fleet. Because the Raider broke off attack.
Does Cavill have a particular reason to want to avoid discussion about the Final Five? Is he in charge now or something?
Discussing the Final Five is forbidden. Forbidden by whom?
Discussion of the Final Five threatens the Seven's survival?
Who are the original programmers?
The Raiders exceeded their programming. Hmm. But isn't that what happened originally? The Cylons exceeded the Colonists' programming and they "evolved?"
Now the Seven need to dumb them down again. Doesn't that go against their programming?
Tools, not pets. And that's the attitude that caused the first Cylon War, isn't it?
Cavill invokes God, even though he's an atheist. Or is it just one Cavill who's an athiest.
Need a majority to make any decision.
4's and 5's will be on Cavills side. Really? And who are the 4's and 5's again.
Raiders are aware of everything. That makes sense, and is also going to make it hard for the human models to retrofit them.
Paralleling one Cylon counsel with another.
Everyone else in the fleet is going to start getting suspicious of what these four are up to, meeting all the time like this. But people are probably going to guess wrong about what is going on with them.
Discussing Starbuck.
On whether Starbuck is the Final Cylon.
On whether Baltar is the Final Cylon. Oh, on whether to ask whether he knows who the Final Cylon is.
Baltar is accomplished at two things: lying in his cell, and lying in a woman. BWAH!
Tigh pimping out Tory to Baltar? EWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Adama confronts Starbuck.
It was like Starbuck had been to Earth before, like she had never left. Hmm.
Although, wasn't she and the rest of them technically on Earth when they went to that planetarium thing on Kobol? Or doesn't that count?
Calling Adama the President's wetnurse. Damn!
