If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I mumbled past the not-sense-making Starbuck & Cylon ship bits for the emotional pay-off, since the the Lee/Kara, Lee/Adama and Adam/Starbuck bits around and after the rescue were so gorgeously handled. (I choked up at "If it were you, we'd never leave." Yeah, I'm a huge sap.)

Oh, me too. Like I said, I liked the ep overall. I just wish they'd thought through the mechanics of the ship a little better. Or a lot better, even.

(But while I'm still ranting, how the hell could she have known that was its brain? Maybe it was the heart, or the liver, or an ovary. Or something with no parallel to mammalian physiology? Gah.)

[eta: Ah, Farscape. Now there was a show that knew how to do living ships.]

"If it were you, we'd never leave."

Ha! I teared up reading it just there.

My issue with this ep and the ep just previous is that I wanted the Adama/Kara tension to play out longer. I don't know. Maybe it's not as resolved as it seems, but, you know, putting her in mortal danger so he'd have to take steps to save her right after he had to make her leave his room so he wouldn't snap her neck in a fit of rage... it just happened too quickly for me.

Our wings are not tired

Did no one notice that she patched a hole in the hull of the ship with a piece of fabric, and that it was then spaceworthy?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Yeah, I was only 1/2-2/3 watching, and noticed that one.

I want a jacket that can hold it's own against the vaccuum of space.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I guess I assumed it was some kind of piece of the ship and it healed the hole over or something.

Conservative, n. A statesman who is enamored of existing evils, as distinguished from the Liberal, who wishes to replace them with others. -Bierce

I thought she used her own pressure suit, but I don't understand why I am making excuses for the show. I can take comfort that as excuses go it is pretty weak.

So, that "never leave" bit. Quite a good scene.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

(I choked up at "If it were you, we'd never leave." Yeah, I'm a huge sap.)

I thought the point of that scene was, Lee choked up.

I have to admit, I was pleased at the proper use of the subjunctive.
