  11. (meanwhile: WHERE THE FRAK IS THAT TANK!?)

  12. It doesn't look like there's the traditional welcoming committee, which makes me think it's a secret resurrection chamber the Final Five constructed somewhere. Is it on a baseship or a resurrection ship somewhere? Maybe back on the Hub before it was destroyed?

    Also, a key question could be when it was. Was it just after she 'died' on New Caprica and she's been chasing after the Fleet for 18 months? Or maybe it took 18 months for her resurrection signal to reach wherever it is that she is reincarnated.

    I was looking at the shot of the Raptor (presumably carrying Ellen back home) flying along and couldn't make out if it was leaving a baseship or The Fleet or some other craft.

    Anyone else loving the irony of Starbuck doing her whole, "I have a destiny, woe is me!" routine for so long and treating Anders like crap, only for it to turn out that he is one of the Final Five and therefore a pretty big deal himself? She almost seems put out by it.

  13. Remember when we all thought Ellen was a cylon because she, so miraculously survived the destruction of the 12 Colonies (Adama goes to retrieve her from another ship).

    Maybe she did die, after all. Who knows.

  14. The tub is behind the cracks.

  15. @Anonymous re: cracks...

    Uh... no.

  16. Don't be surprised if when Ellen gets out of the tank standing there is Cavil

    ReplyDelete
  17. It'd be totally frakked if when Ellen learns of Tigh & Six's child, she betrays him and allies herself with Cavil? Unlikely, but perhaps possible...

    ReplyDelete
  18. Moore said Cavil is the "Keeper of the Keys" so probably he knows about the Five and Ellen ... and he may wake her up - but I doubt they will end up allies ... it didn't go so well for him the last time he woke up a sleeping Cylon

  19. If you freeze-frame the U.S. promo you can see multiple baseships and what strongly looks like a resurrection ship in the background. AUUUGH, is it Friday yet?

    Re: Canadian promo, nice how Starbuck is all lovey-dovey with her "I'd put a bullet in your head if you were a cylon" hubbie now. I guess finding your own body will do that to you :) Oh well, I can't not love her anyway.

  20. The shot of the basestar and resurrection ship is stock footage from Season 3. The shot of Ellen and the flame is apparently a shot from the Season 3 opener. There's also lots of other old shots in there, like the Temple on the algae planet. So those shots could be misdirection.

  21. Saul has some explaining to do when he sees Ellen again, huh?

    "Hi honey! Yeah, um, sorry I killed you. Friends?"

  22. re: Saul has some explaining to do when he sees Ellen again, huh?

    "Hi honey! Yeah, um, sorry I killed you. Friends?"
    ==

    and you could throw in "oh by the way I kinda replaced you with a younger model, and um, about your replacement, did I also mention she's having our baby? Friends?"

    ReplyDelete
  23. True, true....although Ellen has some 'splainin' of her own to do, methinks. "Oh Saul, honey, I just wasn't MYSELF when I slept around with the half the fleet right in front of everybody, and got all those people killed when I betrayed the resistance," perhaps?

    @Adam : interesting about the stock footage used in the promos. Guess we can't assume anything.
    Is it Friday yet?

  24. "So Saul, what have you been up to since I last saw you?"

    "Let's see. I led 40,000 people off New Caprica, I had a bit of a mope for a while before beating up some guy half my age and three times my size with a metal pipe. I started hearing this FRAKKING music which I thought was in the FRAKKING ship and then I found out I was a Cylon. I then got my freak on with a young woman who is also a baby-killing machine and now we're having a kid. Then I came clean about the whole Cylon thing, almost got airlocked, got beaten up a bit by Lee and then visited Earth, which turned out to be a radioactive wasteland where I used to be a banker. I then nearly got killed in a mutiny. You?"

    "Dead. Got better. The usual."

  25. @Adam: ROFL

    @ discussion of probable misdirection in the preview: Notice how the SciFi clip cuts to a Centurion right after a shot of Ellen in the tank? I've been assuming the Centurion is right there with her, which would probably place the tank on a Cavil basestar. But if it's a editing fake -- and that Centurion shows up in a different scene entirely -- she might be somewhere else entirely. I'm just sayin'.
