At first when they did the flash back to Caprica I was thinking oh, great, a preview for Ron Moore's next series wasting more time! But I found the back stories compelling and well done. I hope they have a point which we will learn at the end, otherwise it would just be a lot of exposition for naught. Once they got back to Galactica, the show continued to build great drama. Super stuff!

I kept wondering what the significance of the pigeon-dove in Lee's pad meant. Any thoughts anyone?

I think that sometimes a rose is just a rose and they were showing how those characters handle major change.

When I look at the show now compared the situation when it began, it really shows you how TV can be compelling when people behind shows don't try to dumb things down for the masses. Galactica has been amazing from start to finish. This is because they took huge risks and trusting that the fan base would be able to make leaps with them.

Kudos. This week was a great buildup to the finale and next week will be an event I'm sure.

Well, Ron Moore on this weeks podcast officially put the kibosh on the Daniel as Kara's father plot line! He said he saw that growing traction on line and said that it is not the case. Now what?!

I never thought that anyway. That would make Kara most likely another Cylon - which I firmly believe she is not a Cylon.

She's something, but a Cylon is not it.

Well, no she would have been a hybrid, like Hera, and hybrids seem to be very important.

Why do you say that? Daniel I thought is one of the makers, like Ellen, etc. And they made Cylons - like the final five or final six or whatever number they are up to now. Hera is unique - one of a kind. At least so far.

Right, he's the 13th Cylon, not one of the "makers", and Kara's mom was human= Hybrid. But it's moot as Daniel isn't her father so she is not a hybrid, only Hera is.

I can see what you are saying, but that would never have worked. They have said time and time again that Hera is unique and the first Cylon-human offspring ever.

It wasn't just me, Ron Moore had to address it as the theory had gained so much traction! We kicked it around a few pages ago in this thread.
