I'm saddened that Seelix is a mutineer.
And a few of the other pilots, too, but her most of all.

Heh! Counting on Baltar's sense of self-preservation.  "Maybe we're both frauds and this is our last chance to atone." Ooooooh! Gaeta, are you gonna make a a big ol' "I'm in charge" speech now? 'Cuz that's . . . well, less that completely true. "We can fine tune our rationalizations later." Heh! And perfect timing for Roslin's message. Well, she got out most of her message, so that's good. I think. Heeeeeee! Lee and Starbuck find Adama and Tigh. Adama wants to let the kid leave, Starbuck not so much. With that kid? He was right and she was wrong. Lee makes the rather accurate point that in some ways, Zarek is right. I mean, he's not, and he does what he's doing only for his own reasons, but . . . "What do I want? I want this to stop. It doesn't become you, this . . . treason." Telling him he's a good man. Oooh. "Sealed with a special pen." Yep, all the old stuff is coming out. Awwww. Watching mommy and daddy make out.  Don't worry about her, knows what he has to do.  Tigh and Adama. Last stand at the old Galactica. Are ya gonna do it, Gaeta? Are you gonna order them to blow the ship up with the president? Hmmmmm? "It's been an honor to have served with you, my friend." Damn! Break my heart now, will ya? Are they really gonna kill them? |

Back to the preident. Lee knows what's up. Roslin is PISSED. Only thing to push her back to activity. Tyrol's happy funtime den.  Oh, that is just so wrong. Tyrol, methinks, has been getting ready for this for a while. I think at this point, the fleet is expecting virtually anything. Up to and including the sudden relvation that their real enemy is sea monkeys. That was so cool. ;D **nods nods nods** Exactly! Even if you have grave doubts about their being a future, you gotta try to act with it in mind. |

Nothing to lose but their lives, I guess. But, murdering people when the Admiral has stood down? I'm assuming they were under Zarek's orders to do that. This episode is kicking all sorts of ass. OMG, what a hell of an ep! |

It's the curls! And the soulful eyes! And and and . . . And I'm irredeemably shallow. Those curls will be your undoing, Lola. But, what a way to go, eh?  **hangs head in shame, hiding smirk** |

Teaser
Quiet before the storm.
Ships still refusing to cooperate.
Love Tigh's reaction to Roslin in a robe. Hee.
Zarek still in jail. Adama didn't even release him?
Zarek and Gaeta discuss Lee.
Roslin starting to think like a president again.
She just doesn't want to be pulled back in. Um, you don't exactly get to do that if you have been elected are President.
The revolution begins.
Who is on Colonial One at this point?
Gaeta thwacks the deck hand. Oy.
Who is the chick was watching all that?
At least Zarek has the presence of mind to understand how revolutions work.

Part I
"Unidentified contact" on the DRADIS.
Oh yeah, the Quorum meets on Colonial One.
Now Lee's runs Quorum meetings.
Zarek shows up. AWKWARD.
Touching base with Anders again.
And he's lost his edge on Pyramid.
The further away we get from the Colonies, the more they forget the life they had.
Seelix and Anders.
Ah, it was a ruse to capturing him.
Part of the overall plan?
And did Seelix mean what she was saying?
Hot Dog and Kara.
Kara is stigmatized too.
Gaeta controls all the communications.
This would have been Dee's job if she hadn't died, right?
Lee and Zarek.
Trying to decide whether to honor thy father or be true to your oath. The two don't always mix.
Now Lee's captured.
Saved by Kara.
And she blows them away. Whoa.
What are the revolutionaries going to do with Hera, I wonder?
Bringing up Pegasus again.

Part II
Kara and Lee together again.
All I know is I'm tired of being blind.
In more ways than one, I'd imagine.
The Agathons back in the brig again.
All the Cylons together.
Sharon thinks they're going to use them as bargaining chips against Cavill's faction. I'm not so sure that's the plan.
Especially Anders? Why especially Anders?
HOLY CRAP.
Gaeta's lost control of his revolution.
Gaeta charges Adama with treason.
You are not the leader you once were.
No forgiveness. No amnesty.
I think that's OK with the revolutionaries because they think they don't have anything else to lose.

watching act 1 now.
i've gotta say that that if you're going to start a revolution, having the communications officer head it is a pretty good strategy. ;D

Part III
Lee and Kara find Roslin.
Now Roslin wants her Presidency back.
Has Gaeta actually assumed command to the ship? That's really bold. I mean, surely there are a lot of people on his side who outrank him.
Oh, that girl was one of Baltar's groupies.
Baltar prepares to go into custody.
Baltar and Tryol.
Ah, now Roslin and Lee and Kara are at Baltar's lair.
Adama and Tigh try to escape.
Back with Roslin and Baltar.
I'm not sure that the fleet is tearing itself to pieces as much as turning against you.
Have you come to pray?
Hee!
I love it when Baltar and Roslin face off.
I don't think that the revolutionaries have thought much beyond this point where they are in control.
Roslin finally speaks.
And it sounds like a sermon.
Now Gaeta is more about maintaining power than being reasonable.
Now it's time for Kara to flip out.

Part IV
More Roslin and Baltar.
About their Presidencies.
Lee and Tigh bicker.
Lee tells it like it is.
Baltar and Gaeta.
I'm sorry, but I think Gaeta's over you now, Baltar.
Our little secret?
I think it's about time for something completely unexpected to happen.
Roslin and Adama kiss while everyone else looks awkward. Hee.
Adama and Tigh's last stand.
Sort of like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

I thought that was a brilliant depiction of the way these things go sometimes. Our protagonists clearly didn't see it coming when they should have, and didn't understand what was happening when it started happening. Again it holds a certain similarity to current events.
Only Lee seems to be able to understand things as a whole. He will probably end up in the strongest position when all this is over.
