[QUOTE=Cervaise] 8 is Sharon/Boomer, actually. We don’t know what number the main brain is yet. [/QUOTE] Do I have to link to that thread about 30cm fresh water sting rays mysteriously appearing in folks toilets? Enough with the puns, already. 🙂 ---

One more thought on Lee: He can’t bite it very soon, otherwise why have him wear the fat-suit? That has to slowly disappear as he works his way back into shape as a metaphor for something or another. Otherwise there is no reason for it. So Lee is safe for awhile, and, by extension, so is _Pegasus_. ---

[QUOTE=Grossbottom] News. News. Because the steak has clogged my brain. But why would they show the same show twice? This is highly irregular. [/QUOTE] Don’t they often do that? I know it’s S.O.P. on FX for shows like _The Shield_ and _Nip/Tuck_, etc. I usually set my DVR to record a few extra minutes, and I seem to remember getting the begining of the show again in the last few minutes of the recording pertty regularly. Plus they repeat the thing about a million times during the week. ---

Should we start a dead pool for Ellen? I’m thinking she’s not going to survive the escape. If Tigh doesn’t do it, she may conveniently catch a round in a firefight… ---

I don’t think we’ll see the soothsayer again, or will even know if she’s real or not. She was just a plot device to get the Cylons to believe the humans have a Baby of Mass Destruction, and now that’s been accomplished. They had to find out somehow, and this was an especially artistic way of advancing that plot point. ---

[QUOTE=levdrakon] …and wake up in a tub of goo… bwa, ha, ha! [/QUOTE] Exellent possibility, although I think it would suck. I think there will be no mass slaughter of the Vichy. Human lives are too few and the gene pool too small to kill anyone. Slavery or indentured servitude, perhaps. Some incaraction or limit of mobility and rights. ---

Nooooo they blew it up. :mad: Oh well, we knew it had to go sometime, taking out three basestars is a fitting funeral guard for a good ship. ---

Frakkin’ _AMAZING_ episode this week… Galactica re-entering NC’s atmosphere, and launching vipers while doing it, then performing an _ATMOSPHERIC JUMP!_ Vipers providing A/G air support roles, taking out Centurion gunnery posts the Pegasus just frakkin’ _UNLOADING_ on the basestars, and dying with honor, taking out multiple Basestars in her dying moments… Qapla! Pegasus, you have died with Honor, dying in battle and saving your people, if Sto-Vo-Kor has a place for warships, you are among the most elite, highly honored ships Mombuck _STILL_ needs to introduce Kasey to “Mr. Airlock” oh FRAK, Balty and Six have the Pop-Tart, now Xenabot’s got her… ---
