What occurred to me as Baltar's crazed groupies were leading him off to (paraphrasing) "an unused compartment that we found" was that this is a ship that has been bursting at the seams with people, and they've been using every spare inch of space and utilizing every resource. So these people just managed to find this huge area hanging about, suitable for Baltar-worship?
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Yes, and that food supply everyone forgot about, and some spare water, and they've hacked into the unsecured wireless O2 supply of their neighbors.
You must allocate those fleet resources carefully! There's a Baltar Altar to light, you know!! (Although, how funny is it that it's made out of Christmast lights that don't blink in sequence? Maybe they'll drive Baltar mad before the end.)

BSG 401:
What I can't figure is this argument that the 4 new Cylons "always were Cylons". Because if that's true, how did they manage to not get blowed up in the original attack, and survive long enough to get themselves placed on Galactica? I can almost handwave that one by saying that there were multiple copies of each of them, and they're each sufficiently stronger/smarter/whatever better than ordinary humans that they'd (a) have a good chance of surviving and (b) end up in positions of some authority.
Except... then there's Tigh. Tigh's gotta be in his sixties. And the last Cylon war ended, what, 42 years ago? Tigh was already in the military when the Cylon war ended, and there weren't any human-form Cylons then.
So... Tigh can't always have been a Cylon. He's a changeling--but the other's aren't? I'm so confused.

There were probably a jillion copies of each, strategically placed all over the universe, such that at least one of each had to end up in the fleet. (Although, really, what kind of cracked-out luck is it that two of them worked in the same Dunder Mifflin butt-end of the military instillation! I need to take those guys to Vegas or something.)
I mean, we've already established that this universe is sorely lacking in facial recognition software. Somewhere, on a different ship in the fleet, four other Final Fives are sitting around right now going, "Wait, are you sure??" Except they're in food service so they're all wearing hairnets.

Is that the name? I was sitting here wracking my brain, unable to come up with the right term. Thanks.
