When the Rapture comes, this viper will be unmanned...
Yay! Netflix *finally* received my three DVDs. Funny they all showed up on the same day considering I mailed two on Tuesday and one on Thursday...
ETA: Oh, and I'm not liking this Sunday at 10 p.m. thing very much.
I made the mistake of wandering off a couple of times during the commercials and so I missed a couple of things like Dee finding Starbuck (I guess Dee hit her?) and how the Al!cylon got on the planet.
There was a brief glimpse of one of the final five's faces, but it was all glowy. Anyone tried to photoshop that yet to try and figure it out? Actually, when I first saw the face, I was thinking that it looked a bit like Kara. And then when they did the painting thing at the end... EEK.
Why didn't Dee kick Lee in the balls? Why? Here she goes on a solo rescue mission and Lee's standing there staring at Kara. Kick him hard, Dee! You deserve WAY better. (I know I've noticed this before, but she got a lot of closeups in this ep - Kandyse McClure has the most beautiful eyes.)
Did *not* see the Sharon death coming - didn't figure out that's what they were talking about. Even after, it took a few seconds to realize what just happened. Even though he knew she was on the other ship then, how horrible for Helo. (Side note - Helo reminds me *so* much of one of my cousins it's scary. They look a *lot* alike and their mannerisms are very similar. Always slightly weirds me out.) But I was actually yay-ing at my TV when Helo yelled at Roslin. She very much deserved that.
The cylons are starting to show massive cracks. They can't seem to agree on what they're doing, which fits since I've never been able to figure out what they're exactly doing other than following "God's will." They're a collective when they need a leader. I still think they may end up following the old series by having Baltar wind up leading them. Maybe some bad things will happen to Baltar while he's on Galactica, and that's where he learns to hate humanity/the fleet? And so will happily lead the cylons? Just a guess.
And finally, the toaster!cylons continue to freak me out. I'm thinking it's PTSD from back when I played a few FPS. (Probably nothing funnier than watching me play a FPS. Brother: You can't always run away and hide in holes! Me: 'Can't' is a funny word... *shoots at movement outside hole* Brother: That was *ME*. Me: Mwahahahaha.)

Sounds like you can have the same problems with NetFlix as I have with the library. things tend to not show up on the system properly.

Dee hit Starbuck because Starbuck was zoning out (on morphine due to all the pain), and Dee needed her to help fix/fly the ship. Not that I don't think that Dee really enjoyed hitting Starbuck, of course. :-)
Honestly? I don't think whoever was standing in for the final five is actually who it'll end up being, so photoshopping won't help. I'm sure it was just some random crew under hoods and bright lights.
I didn't see Sharon's death coming, either. I mean, I knew it would be bad, from the way they were talking, but I was assuming some sort of betrayal. Instead, we got that. Wow.

Could be. *eyes*

HA!! If I'd been thinking, I should have taped the repeat.

Oh, so this "vision" could be total bullshit? Yeah, I guess that could happen. I'm still interested to see if anyone's tried to process that screen grab.

I'm glad it's not just me. I think I've asked my husband about 600 times why the cylons don't just go and do there own thing.

For my part, I made all sorts of strangled noises when Sharon died because I was so. very. surprised/shocked/impressed and then it just got more awesome on the Cylon ship.
*loves this show*

Hey!

Yeah, it just doesn't make a whole lot of sense so far.

Weird...

Yeah, totally. I love how this show manages to pull of *actual* twists instead of just contrived ones.

And the contrast with Boomer was also insteresting. You're right - she seems lost or something. Or just really really angry and I'm not quite sure why. Maybe because Sharon was able to stay with Helo and Boomer wasn't able to stay with the Chief?

Kind of ironic in light of the encounter between Boomer and Athena, where Boomer was all "Yeah, if you want to believe that..." about Athena saying she'd made her choice. And now it's looking like she's the one not doing so well at making her peace with where she's decided to be.

I like to think it also was because Starbuck was going through a "woe is me; I have to hurt all the guys who like me" moment and Dee didn't want to listen to it. Heh.
