Dr. seems to be fairly evenly applied to men, less to Allison. Did Kim get a title when referred to by a title? Or was she mostly referred to by her first name.

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

I liked that Lupo was moving herself "towards more light" in the first scene after the therapy device. I thought that was clever foreshadowing.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Ok, the title issue - isn't Allyson an actual M.D. (or heck, D.O. even, but I read her as a little more M.D., and don't get me started on the differences between osteopaths and M.D.s, just don't)? Which muddies up the issue for me. Ph.D.s often do not use their titles in social context, but only in professional context, but physicians typically are addressed as "Doctor" unless one is on first name basis. But then again, it's not like Allyson is really in practice any more, barring the occasional physical or emergency at G.D. Does a semi-retired-from-practice doctor loose the honorific, or does she get called "Doctor" only when she's just pulled the stethescope out of the freezer and put it to your chest? I'd be going with "Doctor Blake" except for those who are on a first name basis with her.
ETA: Definitely overthinking this. P.S. Liked the episode, liked the cheese: "Where else would we be? Jack's our sheriff and Zoe is our girl." Of course, if that had come from anyone but Vincent, it would have been kinda creepy.

I think that she must have chosen not to use her title, though many people know that she has it.

Oh my, I love this episode.
It reminds me of a story I read ages ago about an inescapable prison, also with the psychological insight of the hero into himself.

I finally finished season 1 of Dr. Who. I'm all sad now. I'll miss CE as the Doctor. However, what I've heard of the current Doctor sounds like it's all good, too. I didn't care much for Billie Piper in the beginning, but by the end I was totally in love with her. I hope PBS keeps on repeating from there, I'm kinda hooked.

Oh and in a different and highly spoilery (for BSG) article the Futoncritic also says:
Sam J. Jones as a guest star on the Channel's new series Flash Gordon. Jones played the title character in Mike Hodges' 1980 film, Flash Gordon.
