You mean that the things that she is doing w/o knowing she is doing them (I suppose it's like sleepwalking) - what the ultimate reasons for them - she (human part of Boomer) is not really responsible for ? That she didn't make that choice consciously? But that when that happens she will be evil?

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

I think we're talking about two different things here. Right now, Boomer unaware that she's a Cylon and acting basically scared and confused all the time is boring. When she's activated, and consciously sabotaging things, she may get interesting.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I liked Captain Adama's dissolution of the tribunal. Basically the same thing Picard did in TNG, without the long speech.

It was a trope, but a well-handled trope.

I thought the dissolution of the tribunal was a little tidy for me. Much the same way the resolution of the hostage situation was too tidy.

Still, I liked the episode, and loved the way Adama walked out of the room.

I like Boomer, but I'm crushing on Grace Park, so that may have something to do with it. What I want to know is, what's the point of stringing Helo along, back on Caprica? It's not like he knows the location of the Galactica, or where they were headed. What's that plot all about? (Not that I dislike it, I'm just trying to figure out what's going on over there)

Also, my roommate was asking -- did they establish a solid reason for Baltar seeing Number Six all the time? Like a chip in his head or something?

Also also? I thought we weren't whitefonting episodes that have been broadcast.

Sorry.

I've been wondering whether one of the Boomers will have some sort of crisis when she is at the point of having to do something to whichever person who cares for her she is with. Caprica!Boomer -- I'm a little bit sad that we didn't see her becoming aware of what she is -- but maybe this Boomer always knew -- where Galactica!Boomer has a split between the cylon stuff and the human stuff. (You know -- in her programming.)

I have a plan.

did they establish a solid reason for Baltar seeing Number Six all the time? Like a chip in his head or something?

I remember a scene where Six was taunting him about that. She said it was because he has either a psychotic break or a chip in his head but she's not telling which.

I was just following the leader.

Well, she's going to be appearing to Adama next week. How is that going to work?

Or will there be the one in Baltar's head AND the one that comes on-board the Galactic?

This is what I'm assuming. Baltar is going to be a wreck. Or more of one...

I'm not so sure the dissolution of the tribunal will be that tidy for Adama. But as the commander, he was in his rights to tell them to leave his ship. Gets them dismissed, but also leaves the members with a mad-on toward Adama that has at least a chance of echoing back.

As for Galactica!Boomer, she is in a pretty solid deep cover situation. I'm reminded of the situation Talia Winter was in on Babylon 5 where she didn't know she was a plant until she was activated. She'd been cooperating with her controllers the whole time, though more as a source of espionage than physical sabotage.
