Tonight's BSG

[darcydodo]

Really, all I want to know is what's up with the weird cylon-herpes that a bunch of the humans seem to have. OK, well, it might not be cylon-herpes, but a bunch of people including Starbuck and Ellen have been sporting weird mouth-bruises, and now Tigh and that other woman in the Circle had those little face-lesions. Then again, if it is cylon-herpes, what was woman-whose-name-I-don't-know doing sleeping with a cylon?

And as for the "next week on"s, a) presumably the "coincidence" that Baltar was talking about to Six is that they both had little phantom-versions of the other; b) why do the Cylons always want to live on whatever planet the humans are living on; and c) some of Elias' friends think that Baltar is a cylon because he couldn't have survived the nuclear blast otherwise. I say, "hmmmmm" and am dubious and doubtful.

Oh, and lastly, WHY DO THE OTHER FIVE UNKNOWN AND MYSTERIOUS CYLONS NOT HAVE A VOTE IN ANYTHING???

So that's the weird thing, right. I agree that from the outside, at least, it looks like they don't have the faintest clue who the other five are — but unless it's the weakest plot device in the world ("oh, we haven't introduced them to the audience, so for Unknown And Mysterious Reasons the cylons don't know who they are either") then there's got to be some really weird shit going on. So far they've been pulling cylons out of their asses without comment — Simon and Brother Cadfael Cavill in particular.

I'm still voting for the dog being a cylon-dog. ;)
