You know -- there is also that thing they said about the final five and the one that they do not name. Or was Roslin talking about the gods that are venerated in the Temple of the Five? Is the one that they do not name the god of the Cylons?
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Is the one that they do not name the god of the Cylons?
I think Roslin is starting to think so, and she may be right, but that's not been the belief thus far.

Heroes - tv guide has an interview with this week's exciting guest star here. If you do not want to be spoiled about WHO it is do not go there. There is also some info on the character that the guest star plays.
Fun quote:
TV Guide: So did you and Masi dish on the set in Japanese?Takei: Better! He and I both speak Spanish, so we were chatting with each other en español. It was blowing minds! I am also really impressed with James Kyson Lee, who plays Ando (see related TVGuide.com Q&A). Do you know that he is from South Korea and does not understand nor speak Japanese? I was dumbfounded. He has a fantastic ear. It's one thing to mimic a foreign language, but it's quite another to be able to act in it. Amazing.

BSG question: was that bar on the Galactica? In the Hanger Bay where the civilian refugee camp is set up?
And here is something that's been bugging me for a while: Why is the Algae planet a desert? Shouldn't it have been more hot and watery?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I also want to know what the bar would be serving at this point, given that they should have run out of things to ferment about the same time they ran out of food...

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
BSG: Yeah, there was a lot that didn't add up, but I liked the way they shifted perspective back to Baltar and somehow made him an interesting character again without really changing things. I also liked the online scene, which could have easily replaced any of that boring Lee Adama's tortured relationship shit and made the show better. I really like that I am suddenly convinced that fucking Baltar of all people is the real hero of the show at this point and that I seem to have more or less sided with him and Caprica against both Galactica and the Cylons. I also like that Roslin's authoritarian streak has brought me around to the point that I cringe whenever she's on-screen, because she used to be my favorite character on the show but now she's turned into Dick Cheney. And I love where I think (unspoiled) that they're headed: humanity as we know it as Cylon hybrids. Because I think the humans on the show have an alien streak they haven't shown us yet, something that's evolved into what we think of as humanity by cross-breeding with Cylons. They look like us, but they are not us.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I agree, Corwood. I thought to myself that it's amazing that Baltar remains awesome no matter how many times they tread over the very same ground.
The same cannot be said for the Quadrangle of Bore.

Seriously. I could not give less a shit about the Lee and Kara thing. They're assholes. We get it. I bet that war is hell, too, and that hookers have hearts of gold.

Yes, I don't understand how scenes between Caprica and Roslin didn't make it to the actual episode.

I only saw what they showed after the episode - scifi.com kept giving me a connection error when I tried to watch the bonus scene online - but that Caprica-Roslin scene was better than anypart of the episode-as-aired.
