After this episode, I think the series is going to end with the destruction of the Galactica. And the colonists are going to become planet-bound again.
Also, I can kill you with my brain.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I hope that the piece Tyrol took out goes back in easily enough. Or maybe that's their rationale for the first drive upgrade. Still, the fleet is dead in the water unless it's done, never mind the wall tears (that looked oddly like scratches, not stress or tear marks).

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I think they have a case of giant space raptors.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
According to RDM in the podcasts, the Gaeta/Hoshi relationship was written into the webisodes after they'd wrapped the season, which is why there's no follow-up on that during the mutiny.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Along with the B-ark from Golgafrincham?

I predict that Tyrol will spend the next six episodes down in the FTL chamber frantically radioing Adama that he can't possibly provide him more power because it's tearing the ship apart. Also, he will discover that his model of Cylon has always spoken with a thick Scottish brogue.
Bwah!!! Well, they already had him crawling through the Jeffries tubes, so it'll fit.

I don't know what a Jeffries tube is - I thought of Die Hard.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
They're what the conduits on Star Trek are called. They're named after the set designer on Trek: [link]

BTW, anyone heard any Torchwood scheduling news?
I mean, wasn't the Torchwood panel today?

I'm wondering whether the fleet is going to split - the coup didn't work, obviously, but there are still a lot of people who can't abide the decision to partner with the Cylons, and I wonder whether they'll split off. All this has happened before, and all...
I don't know that I think Ellen has been with the Cavils. I don't know where I think she's been, but we did see her with a Centurion. Maybe there's a rogue band of demon hunters Centurions out there somewhere. I dunno.
