Tantalizing episode title, no? Indeed! I'm hoping it's prophetic.

MmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmLeeinasuit. Tasty. "I want the four in your fleet." D'Anna is being all hard-ass. And Roslin wants Adama to be just as hard-ass. Blow the ship, with her on it?! Damn! Are we gonna get Dee and Gaeta as a couple? "Our people are back, sir." Aaaaaand here we go! Cylons ahoy. We only want to love and protect them. Hmmmmm. And Lee says if they want to go, he'll let them. Nicely done, Tory. And Tigh is totally flumoxed that she wants to go with the Cylons. Is Lee only agreeing because he sees Roslin as a role model or does he really agree? Me? I think blowing up the ship is a bad bad bad idea.

Nuke the basestar, or "those four could give themselves up". Well, hell. Tory looks happy. And Roslin's taking care of Baltar. Which is just so very very wrong. Thank you for not murdering me. I love living and I want to thank you for saving my life. Oh, well, actually I've asked them to blow up the ship. I brought you your medication. And to be with my people. Heeee! Baltar just did a version of Willow's "I knew it, not in the sense of having any idea". ;D I'm done taking orders from you. Ouch! Well, at least a part of her has to be remembering being pimped out. Executing the prisoners? What the hell, D'Anna! Are you just pissed because not all the final four are jumping into your arms? You're just asking to get nuked. Eeeeeeeep!! Chief is hearing the signal!! Are the Cylons trying to call them? No, because they all hear it and Tory's reaction surprised them. Earth!! It's Earth calling them!! The Viper is telling them where Earth is!! Like how Starbuck heard the pull of it. Is Tigh going to turn himself in? Yep. Holy hell. Turns out there's another kind of Cylon we didn't know about. I'm one of them. Adama is soooooooo in denial. Oh, hell. And that's Tigh's idea? Put himself on the line to be airlocked to save the hostages. That's . . . kind of a workable idea. Only, it won't work if it's just one of them, will it?

Oh this is heartbreaking. Adama going nuts in his cabin and Tigh being marched off. Adama crying in Lee's arms. It's all a joke. I can't kill him. Lee saing "I'll take care of it." Poor Tigh. Did he give up the others? Looks like. 'Cuz he knows it will only work with all of them threatened. The look on Kara's face. Damn. Damn. Listen to Sam!! He's righta about the viper!! Kara!! Figure it out!!! Now!!!!! OMG, it's all falling apart. No no no no no don't "play hardball" D'Anna!!! I can't believe I'm rooting for Baltar! Listen to Baltar, D'Anna. Oh, Lee. At the end, knowing that Tigh was the one who volunteered, so space just him. Come on Kara!! Come on Lee!! Come on Baltar! Come on D'Anna!! OMG, Kara yay! **slumps over limply** And we're only just past the half ep mark? Damn.

Like it or not, Lee, something is orchestrating this. So now instead of it all falling apart, it comes together?
Humans and Cylons going to Earth together. Whoa. It doesn't have to happen the same way again. We can choose another path. Damn!! Excellent. Grant them amnesty, they can stay or go.
So she releases the crew and . . . . we go to Earth together. Wow. Things are just poppin'!!
Adama looks so lost.
Are you ready to lead us to our new home?
Nice scene between Lee and Roslin.
We all go together, as fast as we can.

I thought Tigh was the one who was all about rolling the hard Six...

I'm finding all the scenes of people reacting to be . . . way more moving than I thought they would be. Man. I didn't think it would be, but it is.
Damn. And there goes the other shoe. Earth. All ruined and deserted and wrecked.

So, is this an example of "it's all happened before"? And now they get to show if they really are able to forge a new path?
And what happened to Kara when she reached Earth before? Who spiffed up her ship and sent her back? And were the final four on Earth before when it wasn't all wrecked or after?
Hell of a cliffhanger.

Who spiffed up her ship and sent her back? And were the final four on Earth before when it wasn't all wrecked or after? Hell of a cliffhanger. And, sadly, one we're going to have to sit on for a while. From TVGuide.com: Battlestar Galactica fans are well-advised to sit back and savor this Friday's midseason finale, because the balance of Season 4 — the series' last, lest we forget — won't be hitting the tube until after "the first of the year," says executive producer Ronald D. Moore. And that's a best-case scenario.At a Wednesday-night screening of this week's episode, Moore explained to TVGuide.com that even though they are currently filming the series' final scenes, the "practical realities" of post-production — coupled with the formidable end-of-year competition presented by new fall series, baseball and football — places the onset of the final episodes at the start of 2009, at the earliest. "Realistically, there's no way to get back on the air faster," he apologetically added.

i loved the pan of the reactions at the end - adama and roslin together (d'anna walking up to join them), helo and athena together. tory reaching out to touch sam and sam walking away; caprica six reaching out to touch tigh and him standing there quietly letting her. dee and apollo and starbuck all standing alone.
just thought it was really neat.
i have no idea why the skyline struck me as manhattan's, but it did - like they were standing by the ruined statue of liberty looking out onto ruined new york city.
interesting (but not particularly surprising) that tory was treated the worst by the humans and had the fewest qualms about giving up her old life to go be with the cylons.
