Ahahaha, Roslin is so giving Adama the "I'm so proud of my boo" look. They must not have fought too bad after last ep.

I am so thrilled there's a Kat storyline, YAY. Ah, and interesting, it's written by the Buffy gal.

Man, Lucy Lawless is so fab. Although the idea of perpetual downloading is thoroughly creepy.

What's up with Gaeta's issues with Tigh?

*quirks eyebrow* Drug runner, eh? Nice racial profiling there.

Damn, Starbuck, how much of an ass are you?

Baltar has the best facial expressions.

Does that music sound just like LOTR to anyone else?

Um, that was not the Kat storyline I wanted! OMG. *sniffles*

Well, shit, Kara. I mean, you realise you practically killed Kat, yes? I'm so glad you get to mourn her. Bah.


It would be really nice if there was a transcript site, so I can go back and poke through some of the other stuff the hybrid said, because I remember it being interesting at a couple of points but I sure didn't take note of it.
This time, though:

up the creek(?)
angle nominal (?)
seascape portrait of the womanchild cavern of the soul
the (compression)(pressure)-heat ratio
ions of evolution have varied their (fierce)(theories)
the iron complex
gestalt therapy
throughout history the nexus between man and machine (something) the most dramatic

Intelligence
a mind that burns like a fire
find the hand that lies in the shadow of light in the eye of the husband of the eye of the cow

OK, so what I'm getting out of that is that we're actually leading up to another Roslin/Baltar faceoff.

No, ok, so I don't know how much of that we're supposed to take seriously at all. But talking about evolution and gestalts and the nexus between man and machine? That one pulls me right back to Roslin and her magic Cylon baby blood, while a mind of fire is making me think of Prometheus, and, I don't know. Jumbled thoughts and I have too much to do today. But if you think Prometheus Bound and the idea of Prometheus possessing so much foreknowledge about Zeus, and if you take as read that Hera is supposed to reference Roslin... but Baltar, if he is in a Prometheus role at all, it's interesting, because he didn't refuse Pandora, right? So it's an awkward metaphor at best. And I don't know where Three is going to work in. Heh. We'll see. Soon, I bet, because if "in the shadow of light" doesn't mean that MASSIVE LIGHT SOURCE the fleet just passed through, then I will be very surprised.

The televisionwithoutpity.com recapper transcribed the last hybrid monologue; I'm hoping he'll do this one too.

Oh, good to know, thanks!

*cackle* I love that our brains did the exact same thing about the "hand in the shadow of light." Though from some spoilers...I think there is actually a token. But yeah, we need to like have AIM playtime at some point and go, "so, Laura Roslin, did you steal Baltar's destiny, you smart, clever wench?"

[tellitslant]

This show, man, it is not subtle. Them: "All this light will throw you off course!" Me: *facepalm* But yeah, we definitely need to catch up. Could there POSSIBLY have been a worse week for me to get snowed under with work than last week? I mean, OH.MY.GOD.

Yeah, not so impressed with Kara lately...I can excuse Gaeta's airlock emo, but Kara, ack! Definitely digging the hybrid. Thanks muchly on the mythology musings... am still wholly confused but intreagued by Roslin's cylon baby blood. :-)
