This episode should have just been called – Gaius Baltar the Prophet. A bunch of strange things here overall though..
1) How could no one know that Tori killed Kali? aren’t there cameras everywhere on the ship and how could the chief not no?
2) Where were the regular cylons in this episode?
3) How could Caprica Six not know that Col Tigh is a cylon – a Cylon raider knew why not her?
Overall the number of things that just don’t make sense are becoming increasingly compounding making this show less and less accessible to those that don’t follow the show ‘religiously’.
Yes there was some interesting plot development in this episode, but there sure wasn’t much action. Let’s hope we see the Cylons again next episode and we actually get some plot twist that are more dramatic.
Show Me SciFi 
1) How could no one know that Tori killed Kali? aren’t there cameras everywhere on the ship and how could the chief not no?
ans: everyone was having tea
2) Where were the regular cylons in this episode?
ans: having tea
3) How could Caprica Six not know that Col Tigh is a cylon – a Cylon raider knew why not her?
ans: maybe human models are too human and don’t have the sensing ability the raiders have? remember that before col Tigh and the other 2 cylons met up in that room they didn’t know either.
I am hoping that the show finds it’s direction because I am not getting the sense that it really knows what where it’s going or how to conclude it. BSG has been too good a show not to have the great conclusion it deserves. I hope it will have just that. Right now though, I’m not getting the feel for this season yet like the 3 previous that grabbed me and brought me in. I’m still going to watch each and every week though.
Here’s hoping next weeks episode shows more promise.
This season has been huuuuuuuge disappointment. I feel the producers have no idea how to end the show. This really p’s me off. They had a year or so to come up with a good storyline and they are failing miserably so far. I’m tempted to stop watching now because, other than the Cylon civil war, it’s utter crap.
Yeah, at least the ending with Galactica 1980 was much more fun and compact, not this vague, confusing story. Why do they turn the show’s heroes into anti-heroes? Apollo into a lawyer/politician, Starbuck into a crazy selfdoubting somebody, Tyrol into a maniac, Tigh consorting with the enemy…to say nothing about Baltar. Sorry, that’s not why we watch the show. We did because in it ordinary people became special individuals. Anyway, I guess the 5th Cylon will be Adama.
I agree that this season has so far, with the exception of the Cylon Civil War, not had the same energy as previous seasons. However, I also think the denouement of this story involves tying up a lot of loose ends and we’re possibly seeing the groundwork for that now — not terribly exciting but necessary. At least, I hope that’s the case.
Great question about cameras in the launch bay. It would make an interesting turning point for Tyrol to see that footage and discover that Tory killed his wife. Judging by his argument with Adama, Tyrol might actually thank Tory for doing it.
I don’t think it’s too much of a rationalization that the humanoid Cylons can’t recognize the Final Five because they’ve been prohibited to even think about them by their programming. That’s fine, but then I need an explanation as to why the Centurions aren’t prohibited from doing that. Perhaps because the Centurions are older than the humanoids.
I think the Final Cylon is Dualla and explain why here.
