Cut for people who could care less....

The Teaser:

Wheely ship! I’m totally squee about the Wheely Ship ever since it got hurt. It’s completely irrational, but oh, I love it so.

Unimpeachable sources? Who dat? Tory? Isn’t Roslin going to figure it out pretty quick?

Holy crap! He basically just dissed his own ex-girlfriend. “Cylon prisoner” indeed. Um that Cylon prisoner was your GIRLFRIEND, hello??

Oh, Lee. I kinda don’t see your point, despite my love of democracy and transparency and all that. Although I will give you that Roslin is being all Ms. Haughty and dictatorial all of a sudden this season.

Totally random shallow note. Wow, Lee has really pretty green eyes. I never noticed. How can Laura not crumple with them staring into her eyes? Oh, right. Bill probably has them too.

Oh, SHARING visions. I thought Baltar meant telling her visions to them. Duh. Ok. But wait. How would he know about that? Is Tory telling him?

On the Demetrius:

Um, Natalie, didn’t you think you’d be doing the talking? Why do you look so shocked?

Everbody’s suddenly pretty able to do Gaeta’s FTL jumping, like it’s driving an automatic or something. Poor boy’s gonna lose his leg! Don’t feed his job insecurity!

See? He’s opening his eyes: He’s saying, “Hey, that’s my job! I do the jumps! Don’t get used to it!”

Okay, Natalie you keep your mitts off Hera! She’s Caprica’s baby!

What do you mean, “how do you know her name?” You’re freaking Cylons! You share BRAINZ half the time!

Sync points? What? What’s the problem here? Huh? Who cares. Something’s going wrong, that’s all we need to know.

Ah, it’s good to see Adama back in the CIC, even if this is really not going to be a battle.

Oh Tigh, are you really going to fight your own?

Oh, and of course the comm doesn’t work

Hey Dee! That’s Gaeta’s job. Don’t get too used to it!

Hoshi!!

(aw, closed captioning lists him as communication officer)

Everybody’s jumpin’ jumpin’…

That’s it, Tigh! Figure it out.  Figure it ouuuut…..

Weapons HOLD! Yeah!

Whoa, was that viper going to crash into the basestar just there?

Wait, how is the comm working now? Oh, Demetrius’ is working.

I love the sound of the Fleet jumping. It’s such an awesome sound. It’s like … rusty vacuum cleaners.

Oh Bill. What you going to do now?

Phew! Commercial. Need to process all that.

Ok, we’re back. Wow, that entrance shot into the basestar? Beautiful. Oh! And we’ve got Marines in the basestar!

Tigh is looking at Anders, like: “What did you do, Anders? What the frak did you do?”

“Which one of them shot Gaeta?” What an excellent question! Kara looks sheepish.

Wow! It’s the conference room from “Water!” Wow, those times look positively awesome in comparison now, don’t they?

Look at Tigh and Tory! They’re all like “CRAP! Um…no one here but us non-Final Fivers…Really….”

HOLY CRAP! That’s offering to destroy the Cylons as a species. They can’t reproduce, remember?

Nothing is more important than being with the Five! Um… you’re with two of them right now!!! Look at them! They’re the ones totally avoiding your eyes! You’d think your Spidey senses would be tingling off the charts right now!

“The Final Five are in your Fleet.” Oh crap, maybe she can sense something. Okay, every Cylon in the room, ready? Go shifty eyes now. One, two, three, GO!

In sickbay:

Scissors! Oh no! They’re NOT. THEY WON’T. OMG NO!!!!! HIS LEG!!!!!!

Holy crap. I really thought they weren’t going to do that.

He looks so horribly sad.

THEY TOOK MY BOY’S LEG!

FRAK!

They’re not going to show them taking it, are they? (oh thank god).

Meanwhile, back at the ranch:

You guys already contemplated this genocide thing before. It didn’t work out so well. And Helo, you’re behind it this time?  Whaa?

You got Cylons on your side this time, Helo. This time, it could be for REALZ, you know. FOR REALZ.   

Hmm…The hangar deck is full of random people right now, milling about. It’s sorta looking like NY Comic Con

Dylan Four meeting:

Tyrol, you are so frakking awesome. “At least we’ll find out who the fifth is.” Hee!

Oh and Sammy? I love you a little bit for feeling guilty for shooting Gaeta.

Tory and Roslin:

I sooo want Roslin to call her on the Baltar leak

Oh SNAP! YOU”RE SLEEPING WITH HIM! OMG!

Tory/Roslin shippers everywhere are crying right now.

On the basestar:

Ooh, Cylon plotting….hostages? Like who? Who would be interesting?

Back in sickbay:

Gaeta singing! After three seasons, AJ gets to sing! Finally!!!

And aww, Laura, what a way to discover a beautiful voice indeed. Now I want Laura-Gaeta sickbay fic.

Oh, poor baby. He’s in so much pain.

Whoa! Everybody’s in the sick bay all of a sudden. Lee, what are you doing there? Leave Laura Roslin alone with her diloxan, damnit.

Vote of no confidence, uh-oh. This looks bad. But really, did you expect her to drop her diloxan IV and come running? Couldn’t this wait a couple of hours? Maybe I’m politically naïve, but…

Wow. Laura is totally prepping Lee to be president, isn’t she? “Try holding their lives in balance every day.” He is so going to end up president by the end of the series. With like no damn experience. Kinda doesn’t make any sense, but SHOW….

Baltar/Tory:

He didn’t get that info from Tory? Seriously? Then how the hell did he know?

Wow, Tory just gave him THE LOOK.

LOL, Gaius, point taken. You’re you. Of course you’d make crap up and lie. You’re talking to TORY here.

Wait. When did he see visit Caprica?

O rly? She told Romo that? (ETA: nicole_anell has me convinced that it was Gaius doing one of his patented sketchy Gaius-saves and he really meant Head!Six until he realized that Tory probably doesn’t want to hear about his invisible girlfriend!)

Why DID he keep it secret?

She’s a hypocrite? Dude, I love ya, but you’re like King of the Hypocrites! You are so full of shit. Wow, could you be more ironic in this scene? MY EYES!! MY EYES!!

Back in sickbay:

Oh, they’re going to show it, aren’t they? The stump! AUGH!!! Like what, they thought we didn’t believe them that they cut off his leg???

Gods, AJ has a beautiful voice here. What a way to find out Gaeta sings.

Quorum Meeting:

WHOA! It’s Natalie! And Kara!

Ok, you want to have a sense of time. I’ll buy that. For our existence to hold any value it must end. That’s kind of cool, actually.

Uh-oh. What? Is Kara going to go crazy on us? Right now, right here? Infront of the Quorum? Oh, she’s feeling guilty about the Hybrid.

Sickbay:

A lot of singing for Aj. He’s not doing well. Where did they get this song from, anyway? It’s really quite beautiful.

Poor baby…OMG!OMG! BALTAR spying on Felix in sickbay!

*Dies*

OMG, is my memo fic coming true? Is he coming to save his soul or something?  He better do something more than emote in background and leave.

ARGH! He didn’t even talk to him! NO FAIR!

Of course, Gaeta maybe doesn’t want his estranged ex-boyfriend to see him all stumpy, so….oh, and he kinda HATES HIM right now, doesn’t he? But still, WAAH! This show is SO UNFAIR TO FELIX.

Opera House Alert!:

Everybody’s having the dreams again. Why doesn’t Baltar ever have these dreams? I mean, even Hera’s having them, apparently.

“Bye Bye!” Creepy. Hmm…wasn’t that line in “Poltergeist”? Didn’t Carol-Anne say that?

Kara and Laura in sickbay:

Hey, is that Starbuck’s mandala on the wall in back of Laura’s bed?

Man, sickbay is popular this week. Now we got Kara. She better go visit Gaeta while she’s here.

Hmm…how does the Hybrid know, indeed? Oh, wait, Laura. Are you really going to go see the Hybrid?

OMG she is. And Kara’s going to take her. FIELD TRIP!

The basestar:

Ooh, what if the Final Five are watching? Judging us? Compelling point. Too bad you’re wrong, though, Natalie. Oh and btw, you can’t order the Centurions to do anything, remember?

Wow. For once, an Eight who’s not Boomer or Athena has got something smart to say. The Colonials probably would go destroy everyting.

Baltar and Roslin

Ok, why the hell is Helo walking with Baltar? And is Baltar ever going to thank him for giving up that Raptor seat? Ohhh…wait....Laura. It’s a walk-off.

Aw…she’s got Adama’s book with her. Super AWWWWW…But why would she need it? Does she think she’s going to have dead time to kill? Does she think the Hybrid has a waiting room or something?

Whoa! Laura just put all the cards on the table! “You’re in my visions.”

 Hera:

Oh, crayon Sixes. And what up with the crazy camera shot? Oh, it’s to give Hera time to escape. I get it.

Oh, here we go: VISION TIME!

Hey, wait a minute. Why isn’t Sharon going with Roslin on the Hybrid field trip? Or Caprica?

Whoa! Centurions. Coming through, motherfrakker. Centurions with sentience are still as scary as all get out.

Wow, Hera. That girl MOVES. Where the hell is she?

Aw poor Dee. She doesn’t get crap to do anymore. Not gonna wish anything though. I wished for Gaeta to get more to do and look what happened….

Um, how about set Condition Two or something? Couldn’t Sharon get the like 5,000 marines on board to help her look for her super special hybrid baby?

Aw, Tryol’s going to help her. He’s got a Hybrid baby too. He understands.

Wow, Natalie does look kind of scary the way she smiles at Hera. I can see why Sharon’s freaked out.

Visiting the Hybrid:

“Let God’s will be done.” Oh lolz, Gaius. I agree with Laura. STFU.

Oh, why do I think the Hybrid is NOT going to be pleased here?

Sharon! No! Don’t shoot Natalie! She’s an awesome Six! I love her! Oh CRAP!

No way! They really did it, didn’t they? She’s dead?!?

Back with the Hybrid:

JUMP?!?! What the hell? Where are they going? Where’s Leoben and  not-Boomer?

Oh wait. I haven’t been paying attention to the lyrics. My show was being all layered and shit, and I MISSED IT. Damnit. Thank god for TIVO.

OH SHOW ILU! This episode was made of crazy sad awesome! You are forgiven a multitude of sins right now…..

Oh, SHARING visions. I thought Baltar meant telling her visions to them. Duh. Ok. But wait. How would he know about that? Is Tory telling him?
Does Head!Six know? How would she know? Or did he really hear from Caprica? I am too weary to go back to the end of season 3 to figure this out. Very confusing. I did catch his squirrely, 'No, I mean, Caprica,' look but, I don't remember Head!Six mentioning the dreams.

Everbody’s suddenly pretty able to do Gaeta’s FTL jumping, like it’s driving an automatic or something. Poor boy’s gonna lose his leg! Don’t feed his job insecurity!
Frak, I was pissed to see Dee and Hoshi doing Gaeta's job. But according to this. I'm figuring Gaeta isn't going to be in CIC a while. If again. :-( Oh, and Bear McCreary wrote the song. This was an interesting link and cheered me.

From an the article, from AJ: "well, let’s just say that as an actor it was a welcome change from dradis contacts and star charts"
But I loved Action Stations!

And aww, Laura, what a way to discover a beautiful voice indeed. Now I want Laura-Gaeta sickbay fic.
Gah, that would just break my heart further. She's dying and he still doesn't look so good.

But really, did you expect her to drop her diloxan IV and come running?
:-) I thought I couldn't laugh so soon, but that's a funny image. I can see her pushing the damn thing too if the fleet needed her. But wait, if she's on the basestar, how will she get treatment? :-0

Wow. Laura is totally prepping Lee to be president, isn’t she?
Some speculate that he might be VP the next ep. If Roslin stays on the basetar, then what will the fleet do? Zarek/Adama '08.

(BTW, you may get your Roslin/Baltar in some crazy way. Hell, after Caprica/Tigh (Is he sleeping with her?) anything is possible.)

And is Baltar ever going to thank him for giving up that Raptor seat?
No. Never. :-) He's Baltar.

Oh wait. I haven’t been paying attention to the lyrics. My show was being all layered and shit, and I MISSED IT.
Hee! This ep totally demands an immediate rewatch. Especially once we know Gaeta lives.

Great livebloggin' and made me laugh! Which I thought wouldn't happen. Still worried about him. This is becoming the Show I Love Above All Shows Which Has Lots of Awesome Stuff Happening That I Can't Focus On Because I'm Just Worrying About Gaeta and Kara Show. :-)

I was curious what exactly it was in Bear's blog made you think that we won't see Gaeta in CIC for a while? Did I miss something specific said that made you think that?

Gods, I don't know if Tigh is sleeping with her, but that's just going to be weird if true. I thought the Cylons couldn't reproduce! How is that possible that she's pregnant?

I'm worried about Felix too, but I'm so glad I made you laugh for a minute or two.

Oh, I quoted it above. AJ's happiness with doing something besides being in CIC. Made me wonder if he ever would be in CIC again. They don't have a whole lot of time. Starbuck hurt her knee and was out for weeks, like a real injury. This . . . this is so much worse.

How is that possible that she's pregnant?
WHAT?! Is that what you got from the promo? OMG! 1) I thought it was just broken bones or bruises. You know just their S&M thing. 2) He didn't hook her up with the fanon contraceptive shots? Did he really like babysitting Hera and Nicky? (And did he learn anything from that? Crap, it could be like your story! Caprica gets pregnant! No way anyone's killing her if that's true.) But if he impregnated her in prison that would be so frakked up. Like on so many levels. But let's not get ahead of ourselves, here. Let me mourn my boy's leg a while longer before getting ready for the next mindfrak.

LOL, awesome. I soooo know what you mean.
I needz to stop worrying about everyone. I'm still worrying about PTSD!Six and she's dead. I'm about to get woobie for the Centurion cleaning up blood next. Dobby the house elf, to my Hermione.

Just to pop in, that is TOTALLY what I got from the promo too. But I'm not *sure* - there could be other explanations, but Cottle's comment sent my brain in that direction.

I thought it briefly, but then dismissed it. Promos can be so misleading. And Nicole! Little fragile Caprica who barely let herself think of the FF and couldn't make a go of it on NC with Baltar, having a baby with Colonel Tigh?

She's a prisoner, it's all kinds of wrong. But the Cylons have a thing about reproducing . . . And what about love? Is it because Head!Ellen got in there? Dudes. Adama is going to be so jealous pissed.

*giggle* Seriously, did Sharon forget why her baby WAS CONCEIVED? And that she lived on a baseship for several months?

Awww hell no to everyone doing Gaeta's job. That was my reaction when Starbuck tried to put the blue thingy into the thingy last week.

That's Gaeta's blue thingy! (It's a key of some sort, kind of the Colonial version of the goo.)

I needs me a blue thingy icon now. With Gaeta's hand on it. ;-)

So, the Hybrid kidnapped Laura and Gaius, and Gaius totally went to see his hurt boyfriend. That's...really all I keep focusing on. This episode was so full of awesome I've short-circuited. Awesome and PAIN.

Everbody’s suddenly pretty able to do Gaeta’s FTL jumping, like it’s driving an automatic or something.

Ah ah, but see, when the Demetrius did jump, they frakked something up, remember? It was totally because Felix wasn't doing his job. Nobody can do whatever-the-hell-he-does like Felix!

Ah! Good point. Whew! You have eased my mind!

Nobody can do whatever-the-hell-he-does like Felix!
haha! he has like the most ambiguous job description sheet ever, doesn't he?

His job seems to involve: plotting jumps, watching for dradis contact, occasionally delivering Very Important papers from one superior to another, sometimes manning the comms, doing star charts, and saying "Action stations, action stations!" as warranted.

...But it's all VERY IMPORTANT to the running of a battlestar, and nobody does it better.

(BTW, I finally saw the James Callis Q&A and as of right now of course I'm most amused by the part where he's answering that question if he's as much of a player as Baltar, and he's reading off the list of conquests the blogger has given and "Felix Gaeta" is on there. And, like, his voice goes up an octave, like he's visibly amused, but otherwise he doesn't say anything to object.)

*g* Yeah, I made a point of *not* spoiling you for that part because I knew it was much more awesome as a surprise.

I love too how when he says "Felix Gaeta," he turns all coy to face the camera. Very cute.
