looked like cracks in the wall, maybe it would have destroyed the ship if they really did jump?


Probably there because he got himself busted to private and wasn't the senior chief anymore making sure everything is maintained.

What stopped for Gaeta?! What was with their talk?! What was that cracked thing Chief saw?!

Good questions. I can only suppose the leg stopped hurting for him. Maybe the "phantom leg" thing people experience was finally gone for him. my guess anyway because of the way they panned to his leg.

As far as the talk gaeta and baltar do have history.

Maybe Baltar was the only person who would talk with Gaeta before the firing squad.
Only 4 more episodes to the two part (although some rumors say three part) series finale.

Frak. Whose left? Rosylin hasn't updated her board for awhile.

Coming attraction looks interesting. If you didn't see it avoid below:



So Ellen gets resurrected and she knows the truth. And there is still hope.
Neat.

 
When Gaeta's stump stopped itching prior to his death is a parable, or maybe homage is a better word, to another piece of literature but for the life of me the name is escaping me. I think that is why they sort of focused on it - all sorts of artistic and shit for people that may have read the book that I can't think of.
 
very good show. loved the scene with Adama marching down the corridors with the ship behind him. i wished he just walked onto the bridge and put a bullet in the head of both of them.

I am somewhat surprised that he would have executed them so quickly. I would have thought Adama would provide an actual fair trial which would exemplify him keeping with the rule of law as opposed to the mockery that the coup had.

That being said we were not given a clear time-frame from when Adama took control of the ship to when the execution happened so for all we know maybe there was a fair trial.

Bah, they were mutineers. In the military, that is cause for death. Plus, Zarick killed (or had killed) all of the reps. They deserved it.

10/10

That's what I got from it as well. Galactica probably would have been destroyed if they jumped.
 
Count me as odd man out but I would rather the admiral have been offed and then a war with the remaining cylons...this cylon human love fest lately is a bit blah...and now saul's wife is comming back...big whoop.

I would really like to see starbuck taken out...she has passed the point of being annoying, and the pres has to go too.

+1 Looked like a nasty rip in the FTL drive walls

Great episode. It will be interesting to see how they try and reconcile with all of the other mutineers
 
I guess we'll never know what Gaeta's secret that only Baltar knows really was.


🙁


My guess is the writers never really new either and decided to kill him off with this whole coup plot so they wouldn't have to think something up.

😛

Yes I thought that too... I can't place it though.
 
To be honest I still never got that whole cylon pitying humans thing. They traded eternal life for the remnants of humanity, which in fact want them to die in the most painful way possible. Right...

Still I'm rooting for the cylon's, can't stand the self-pity and emotion of some characters.

I'm pretty sure the secret is that Gaeta gave in to the cylons during the occupation of New Caprica and helped make the execution lists. At least, that the impression I get from the web episodes.

Awesome episode btw. Lots of big characters dying.
