Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"  

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I hear you. But the thing is, if Galactica!Boomer is pregnant, that ain't going to be a normal sprog who'll do normal sprog things like draw on the walls or throw a temper tantrum.

Also, how *can* Cyclons reproduce anyway? They're fascimiles of humans but they're supposed to be still machines, non? Once they start to spawn, "you're nothing but a toaster!" is no longer gonna fly too well as an insult.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

It never occurred to me that Caprica!Boomer might be pregnant. (That is the Boomer we're talking about, right, what with the vomiting?)

Maybe she ate some bad RAM chips. t /MST3K

Caprica!Boomer might be pregnant.

Oh, yeah. I meant Caprica!Boomer, not the other one.

I don't know--my brain just immediately went there when she started to throw up and tried to cover up what was wrong from Helo. Mostly because getting her to sleep with Helo seemed to be a major mission on the Caprica-Cyclons' part; also, Six had expressed a wish (in the pilot, I think) that Baltar would impregnate her.

Oh, god, are they really going to go the Magical Pregnancy route? There's going to have to be a lot of Apollo to compensate for this.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

There's going to have to be a lot of Apollo to compensate for this.

What about Apollo/Helo? Would that help?

Plus the CKR Cylon coming back and domming Baltar.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Are you suggesting that I'm easily appeased by slash? I am shocked, I tell you, SHOCKED at the suggestion.

I'd settle for more shots of Apollo's arms.

Dude. Baltar is such a natural-born sub that even Billy would be a dom when paired with Baltar.

... and I didn't really want to think of Billy/Baltar in leather and chains, but my brain just went there regardless.

I'll place a call.

Now I really want Hugh Dillon playing Tigh.
