I think so, ita. If my foggy memory can be trusted the resurrection stuff was blowed up after the New Caprica time. We may get some flashback scenes of what Ellen has been doing, but really I want to see her mix with the rest of the crew again. She is fun.
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Looking forward to Ellen's return, in particular the Tigh & Ellen show. They serve up a bit of sick comic relief.
Not just Tigh & Ellen either - Tigh & Ellen & Tigh's pregnant girlfriend. Good times!
Wasn't Ellen killed while the resurrection system was still in place?
Oh, good point. But I also can't figure out how she wouldn't have popped up sooner if she's been re-alive all this time.

Totally wrong, the resurrection ship was gone before Tigh killed Ellen. eta: I'm still confused. Clearly I have no clue of the actual timeline. I expect they will clarify, or not.
Not just Tigh & Ellen either - Tigh & Ellen & Tigh's pregnant girlfriend. Good times!
Ellen's scenes with lots of people are interesting. Bill and Starbuck should have interesting reactions too.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
you know, the resurrection scene from the trailer might be a flashback.
I still don't know what took 18 months.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can't quite tell from the wikipedia short synopses, but it seems Pegasus and Galactica went after a resurrection hub, which would be while Ellen was still alive (2.12), but they are in pursuit of a resurrection hub in 4.11, which is after.
I couldn't begin to guess at who was in range of what. I'm sure New Caprica must have been in range.

Pegasus & Galactica went after a resurrection ship, not the hub. The hub was still in place when Ellen died.

Thanks Jess, I think that is where I was getting confused.

Trust my rage
I'm confused about why everyone is talking about Ellen? Did we see her inthis ep? Also, how do we know Felix was gay? (not doubting, just thinking I don't remember it being discussed or shown.)
Other than that, I really enjoyed this episode. Don't ever piss off Adama or Roslin!

Ellen was in the previews for next week.
By my understanding Gaeta's bi--he slept with an 8 and with Hoshi (CIC crew) in the webisodes.

I don't think they showed Ellen in the episode, but they did in the promo for next week. I may be mistaken, but I think the stuff about Felix being gay must be in the webisodes, which I haven't seen.
