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.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I don't think Kara knows. But Her thought that they were safer with Cain than without Cain - based on a flawed premise. Cain was not the stronger leader, because the ship surrived on its own. More people died under her command.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

But does Kara know that?

I don't think so.

I was thinking at some point that Adama should have said to her, "Dude, this is why Cain is fucked...." But instead we get a misunderstanding. Although it's plausible to me that Adama wouldn't tell her why, so we're not in sitcom misunderstanding territory.

Oh, and I love how Apollo was freaked that the president was in favor of the assassination.

Yeah, Starbuck doesn't know. I'm also wondering if Fisk will ever tell anyone that Cain was prepared to kill Adama. That'd take the bloom off her image for Starbuck. Which means, I bet he never says.

Art Crawl!!!

God that was good. Even staying up REALLY late to see it.

Even if Fisk tells Adama about Cain's plan, why would Adama EVER tell Kara?

I liked that it freaked Lee out that the plan was the president's.

The Bill-Laura kiss was so sweet.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Wasn't it? At first, I thought he was giving her the silent "keep your chin up" gesture, then I realized he was cupping her chin so gently, and then the kiss was so perfectly chaste and yet wonderful.

Too bad you have to be dying to get a kiss like that from a real gentleman.

I've always been hoping she'd get the non-chaste variety from Lee.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

THE KISS WAS IMPROV!!! WHEEE!!!!

(Whew. I've been waiting weeks to say that!)

Seriously?? I can believe it from the way they smiled afterwards. That makes it even better. Total character moment. Awesome.

Aw. Well, your love might be a good enough reason! It's just, mine isn't.

No, mine's not either really, in any kind of grown-up, serving the story way. I'm a child when it comes to Roslin, and I do not want her gone. So... screw the story! Figure something else out, writer people. stomps foot Yeah. Twelve.

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

I couldn't watch the kiss. It icked me out. I'm an Apollo/Roslin shipper myself (hi, Matt!).

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

We can sit in the twelve-year-old corner together, Jen.

Hey, ita, since you're here--should a Cain who wanted to live have tried to take that gun away from Gina?
