As one series comes to an end, Laura and Xhafer plot how to annoy another content creator. Laura sticks with her fan theory. Xhafer wonders how to clean Cylon goo out of the carpet. This episode covers the extended cut of Battlestar Galactica Season 4, Episodes 20 and 21: Daybreak, Parts 2 and 3.
Hello, and welcome to Who Are You?
2
:We're a reasonably well-done sci-fi
watch cast by a couple of former
3
:strangers who are now friends and have
finished:
4
:I'm Laura
5
:Xhafer: I'm Jafare.
6
:It's the big moment.
7
:We did it
8
:Laura: We did it.
9
:It's over.
10
:Xhafer: Well, no, we have a bunch of
terrible auxiliary media to watch still.
11
:But it is not nearly as well
received or acclaimed as this show.
12
:Laura: Yeah
13
:Xhafer: we got through to the end.
14
:You made it to the end
without any spoilers.
15
:Bless up.
16
:Laura: We
17
:Xhafer: Not…
18
:Laura: I don't know how we did it, but we
19
:Xhafer: No, we did it.
20
:So, once this call is over, I
will add you to spoiler town
21
:Laura: Yeah, Aaron, Aaron, uh, was
like, "I could add you right now, but I
22
:won't just in case Jafer has a reason,
23
:Xhafer: A ceremony.
24
:I didn't…
25
:You c- he totally could have.
26
:You could have just shown up in there.
27
:Laura: He thought Ja'far
might have a plan, so
28
:Xhafer: no.
29
:Laura: he, uh
30
:Xhafer: much like the Cylons, say I
have a plan but am just winging it.
31
:Laura: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
32
:Mm-hmm
33
:Xhafer: The actual twist,
there never was a plan.
34
:Um, all right.
35
:So listener, if you're
just joining us, one, hi.
36
:But two, uh,
37
:Laura: Weird choice
38
:Xhafer: weird choice, but here we are.
39
:We are doing, Daybreak part two and three.
40
:Part one, we are doing the
extended cut, which is a two-hour
41
:30-minute-long version of this episodes.
42
:So part one, the first 40 minutes is in
last week's episode, so go and listen
43
:to that because this picks up just,
like, in the middle of an episode.
44
:So it might be a little jarring if
you were trying to, like, "Oh, I'll
45
:just listen to the last, the finale
to see what they say about the end."
46
:You gotta go back and listen to last week.
47
:Y- y- you don't, but, you know, you
might not understand a chunk of this
48
:and where it's coming from if you don't.
49
:So we cut over/open on
Bill and Saul at the
50
:strip club.
51
:Laura: Yeah.
52
:Xhafer: Did you know this was
the next scene before you…
53
:Like, did you pause with enough
time to not know that this was
54
:the next thing that was happening?
55
:Laura: know this was the next
thing that was happening.
56
:Xhafer: was so jarring to flip
on and just be all like, "Oh,
57
:this is what's happening."
58
:Laura: Yep.
59
:We're doing this, I guess.
60
:Xhafer: Probably more jarring than just
watching the episode and it cutting
61
:to this was watching a chunk of the
episode, taking a day break, and then
62
:coming back to this chunk of the episode
63
:Laura: Yes.
64
:Uh, not only are we, like, just in
the strip club, but Saul is trying
65
:to pay for a lap dance for Adama,
66
:Xhafer: Yeah.
67
:Laura: keeps refusing and
ultimately tells the lady, like,
68
:"Here, enjoy your 40 bucks.
69
:Just go away."
70
:Xhafer: He deserves it.
71
:Laura: Yeah.
72
:Uh, but this is, this is fun
'cause Ellen is also here.
73
:Uh, we're here
74
:Xhafer: Sure is.
75
:Laura: the one-hour job,
the mysterious one-hour job,
76
:Xhafer: Yeah So They, they give
some illumination, but not a
77
:lot here as to what's going on.
78
:He's gonna have a life without
inspections and drills.
79
:So, he's moving…
80
:The, the one hour, as we see later
in the episode, is about moving
81
:out of military life and into
the private sector civilian life
82
:Laura: Yeah, it's still not…
83
:I thought maybe it was, like,
some sort of political thing, but
84
:Xhafer: be.
85
:Laura: never clear exactly what it is
86
:Xhafer: Yeah.
87
:Well, it doesn't matter.
88
:I don't think it mattered to Bill, so
it doesn't matter to us, the audience
89
:Laura: Right
90
:Xhafer: But yeah, Ellen, after they're,
they're having a couple drinks here,
91
:Ellen just appears from the darkness
92
:and then gets on the
table and starts dancing
93
:Laura: Yep.
94
:Saul is super into it, so I
guess way to be supportive.
95
:Xhafer: Yeah.
96
:We Cut over to Cara and
Lee talking politics.
97
:Lee talks about the
importance of the vote.
98
:Hey, we know that stuff from season one
99
:Laura: Mm-hmm.
100
:Yep, he's Super into the democracy.
101
:But Zach is teasing him about
actually being a cynic and
102
:not being a romantic at heart.
103
:And also, you don't
talk to Dad anymore, so
104
:trying to put his brother down
in front of his girlfriend.
105
:Xhafer: Yeah.
106
:Uh, he's all like, "Why'd
you follow dad's footsteps if
107
:you're not gonna talk to him?"
108
:And then he's just like, "I only
joined the military for free college."
109
:Laura: Mm-hmm.
110
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm
111
:Laura: Okay.
112
:Xhafer: see Laura on her blind date
with Sean, who she realizes she knew
113
:that name because he's a former student
114
:Laura: Yep.
115
:Xhafer: Now, we never…
116
:Do we know what Laura taught?
117
:Okay, 'cause there's a…
118
:I'm not trying-- One,
this dude is, like, 40,
119
:Laura: No, I don't think so
120
:Xhafer: right?
121
:Laura: Yeah, they are both like,
I was thinking, God, like how far
122
:apart in age could they actually
have been when she taught him?
123
:Like, It
124
:Xhafer: it depends a lot on what she
taught because if she taught like in
125
:college or high school and it was like
one of her first students or something,
126
:that age gap might be less than a decade
127
:Laura: Yeah.
128
:It might be like five
years, six years tops
129
:Xhafer: But if she taught
like elementary school
130
:Laura: Yeah.
131
:It doesn't look like
elementary school really.
132
:It looks like a high school or
college gap because they really
133
:do look very close in age,
134
:Xhafer: Yeah.
135
:Laura: At this point.
136
:Um, but yeah, he was one of her students.
137
:She's a little weirded out by it, and
he's like, "Well, do you want me to go?"
138
:And she's like, "I didn't say that."
139
:And then she pours them both some wine
140
:Xhafer: Bill yells at Saul for
not wanting to do the thing
141
:he's encouraging Bill to do
142
:Laura: Mm-hmm.
143
:And then Saul is like finally able to be
like, "Yeah, I guess I wouldn't either."
144
:Xhafer: Yeah.
145
:Laura: and he keeps
cheering Ellen on onstage
146
:Xhafer: Yeah.
147
:Zach passes out.
148
:Kara grabs shot glasses for her and Lee
149
:Laura: Mm-hmm.
150
:Of course she does
151
:Xhafer: And then Ellen gets down
off the table, and Saul puts…
152
:He, like, pulls the dollar bills
in her bra out with his mouth.
153
:No.
154
:No.
155
:Money no go in mouth.
156
:No.
157
:No.
158
:No.
159
:Laura: He's
160
:Xhafer: was…
161
:Oh.
162
:This hurt me.
163
:Laura: letting you know
he's a dirty, dirty boy.
164
:Xhafer: Oh, oh.
165
:Oh, that's not…
166
:Oh, no.
167
:I was genuinely upset.
168
:Laura: They, they have a little bit of a
giggle over her tips that she got, which
169
:I don't know, I'm a little, I'm like, hmm,
that was, that belonged to the girls on s-
170
:like, the girls who were really working.
171
:I don't know.
172
:Anyway, , she heckles him about
always following Adama everywhere
173
:Xhafer: His true love, Bill Adama.
174
:Laura: Mm-hmm.
175
:She's been jealous a while.
176
:Xhafer: Yeah.
177
:Laura: And then they have a
classic Sol and Ellen fight
178
:Xhafer: they do.
179
:While this is going on, we cut over to
Bill, who's, outside in the alleyway,
180
:so drunk he's puking all over his suit.
181
:Laura: I didn't wanna see this.
182
:I didn't wanna
183
:Xhafer: It was
184
:Laura: almost puking all over his suit.
185
:Xhafer: Like you could tell me that
this wasn't like fake puke and that
186
:Eddie Olmos just willed this to
happen, and I would believe you.
187
:This looked very convincing to me.
188
:Laura: gross.
189
:Xhafer: Yeah.
190
:It was so upsetting in a way
that only something like this
191
:actually happening, I feel.
192
:Like it was so well done
that if it wasn't real, I,
193
:I believed it more than the starships.
194
:Like I-- it was the most believable thing.
195
:Laura: Mm-hmm.
196
:Xhafer: very well done.
197
:but he looks up at the stars and smiles
198
:Laura: Mm-hmm.
199
:We know Dad needs the stars.
200
:Xhafer: Yeah, he's a sailor.
201
:Laura: Mm-hmm
202
:Xhafer: see carriers take off
from Galactica and Gaius is
203
:hanging out alone in the bang bus.
204
:6BT shows up to give him a reminder
that it is in fact the series finale
205
:Laura: Yeah, trust yourself.
206
:Trust God's plan for you.
207
:and, uh, he's like, "Well,
what exactly is that?"
208
:6PT says they're…
209
:He's leading them to their end.
210
:Uh, and he's like, "Wait a second,"
when Paula comes in and interrupts and
211
:is like, "Hey, we've got stuff to do."
212
:It's a pretty good cut.
213
:I enjoyed it a
214
:Xhafer: Yeah.
215
:It's real good.
216
:He flashes back to Caprica, where
Caprica Six is hanging out with Calvin.
217
:Laura: Oh, yes.
218
:This was funny because I thought
from the basis of our conversation
219
:last week that Calvin wasn't gonna
show up again, that literally
220
:that was just in the last episode.
221
:Xhafer: Well, I mean, he's
in this for three seconds
222
:Laura: Yeah, yeah.
223
:But, Calvin apparently has a
key to Gaius' house and is just
224
:chilling with Caprica Six, drinking
225
:Xhafer: Yeah.
226
:Laura: So that makes the little
brother story even funnier in my head.
227
:I am taking that, and it
does sound like Calvin is a
228
:neighbor now, but I don't care.
229
:He's his little brother.
230
:Xhafer: Beth watched this one with me
and she went on a whole thing about
231
:how Calvin in her head canon is Gaius'
big brother, little brother program
232
:Laura: Yeah, that's what I was talking
233
:Xhafer: Yeah, said.
234
:Yeah.
235
:And, uh, just like went on this whole
thing and I'm like, I bet you if I update
236
:the wiki, some podcaster in like four
years will come across this, not know
237
:that it's all fake, and just buy in.
238
:Laura: Yep.
239
:Xhafer: No one's hawking the Battlestar
Galactica wiki for accuracy these days.
240
:Laura: Yeah.
241
:Xhafer: Get in there and
make some sneaky changes.
242
:Laura: Yeah, Ronald E.
243
:is probably not, eyeing these
things with the same level of
244
:intensity as a- another creator.
245
:Xhafer: Yeah.
246
:No names mentioned.
247
:Laura: names.
248
:No names
249
:Xhafer: We should find out who
made Farscape so we know who
250
:we could potentially piss off.
251
:Maybe we should spend…
252
:Jim Henson?
253
:I'm not worried about that one.
254
:Laura: yeah.
255
:I wouldn't even be worried
about that one if he was alive.
256
:I don't think he was an easy man to…
257
:Well, I don't know.
258
:I guess I don't know shit about Jim, Jim
Henson, so I better keep my mouth shut.
259
:Maybe
260
:Xhafer: Yep.
261
:Laura: pissed him off.
262
:Xhafer: I know nothing about Jim
Henson, so everything I know about
263
:Jim Henson I know from the Epic
Rap Battle of History he's in.
264
:Laura: Mm.
265
:Xhafer: Not a reliable source
266
:Laura: Yeah, exactly.
267
:Xhafer: Anyways, he's all like,
"I'm gonna call the cops on Six."
268
:But she tells him that she found
a place for his dad to live.
269
:He'll be able to, farm again.
270
:They've got all these gardens and stuff.
271
:He'll be able to do all this.
272
:"I took him there.
273
:He loved it."
274
:Laura: Yes.
275
:He's moving right now as we speak.
276
:Xhafer: Yep
277
:Laura: Anybody else would find
this creepy, but Gaius is just so
278
:relieved to have a problem handled
279
:Xhafer: Do you think there is a version
of the script where we cut over to
280
:the nursing home and it's like the
nurse taking care of him is Simon?
281
:Laura: That'd be so much fun.
282
:Or another Six, like, a brunette Six
283
:Xhafer: Yeah.
284
:Laura: Yeah
285
:Xhafer: Give us that scene
instead of almost any of the other
286
:flashbacks you gave us this episode.
287
:We'll talk about it
when we rate this thing.
288
:I don't know how much of this is the
extended cut, and that might be…
289
:If all these flashbacks are the
extended cut, then good because
290
:they do nothing for this episode.
291
:If you were to task me with re-editing
this thing right now, the only flashback
292
:I would keep is the Lee Cara stuff.
293
:Laura: Really?
294
:Xhafer: Yeah
295
:Laura: that's the one I would cut
296
:Xhafer: So I think in term…
297
:Okay, well, well let's
get through everything.
298
:Let's get through everything.
299
:Laura: yeah
300
:Xhafer: Anyways, Cottle tells
Rosalyn she's got enough drugs to
301
:keep her standing another two days.
302
:She is high as fuck.
303
:Laura: Yep
304
:Xhafer: And then we have a scene that
mirrors the one we had last episode where
305
:they were talking about the plan, where
now they're formulating the plan, and
306
:we cut between four different mission
briefings with Helo, Lee, Adama, and
307
:Tyrol giving different mission briefings
to the pilots, the Marines, the, gunners
308
:and Battlestar staff, and then the Cylons
309
:Laura: Yeah, the Big thing in this is that
Tyrol and his team are like, you know,
310
:"The only way to do this quickly is to
move Anders to CIC and hook him up there.
311
:Like,
312
:Xhafer: Yeah, the big thing in this is
that Hero and his team are doing great.
313
:Laura: The cables to get the
right stuff to this place.
314
:We gotta move him."
315
:And Adama does freak out
having a Cylon hooked up to CIC
316
:Xhafer: So a couple of weeks
ago when we had Elliot on, we
317
:talked about the ship of Theseus
318
:Laura: Yes
319
:Xhafer: I think this is the line,
and that's why Adama freaks out.
320
:Having a Cylon hybrid in CIC is the line.
321
:This is no longer the Galactica
322
:Laura: Hmm.
323
:That's his line in
324
:Xhafer: The, all the networked computers.
325
:Yeah
326
:Laura: hasn't come to the conclusion
that because he is still here,
327
:it is still the Galactica?
328
:Xhafer: I think objectively when
you're the person that makes it
329
:the thing that it's still the
ship, it's hard to see that.
330
:Laura: yeah.
331
:Xhafer: Yeah
332
:Laura: And basically that's what
Starbeast yells at him, is that like,
333
:"Hey, we all literally just crossed
a line in the last episode, you
334
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
335
:Laura: You and I put that line down,
and people crossed it, and they're here.
336
:Xhafer: Yeah
337
:Laura: I'm sorry that this is your
line, but you also need to cross it
338
:and get on board, you dumb idiot."
339
:Xhafer: She goes full Adama on Adama.
340
:Laura: Mm-hmm.
341
:Xhafer: It's great.
342
:Laura: Yeah.
343
:Xhafer: Speaking of great, in the next
scene, Hoshi's promoted to admiral.
344
:Laura: Wow.
345
:'Cause there's literally nobody else.
346
:Xhafer: I mean, everyone
else has volunteered.
347
:Laura: Mm-hmm.
348
:Xhafer: I mean, what are you gonna do?
349
:Pull Captain…
350
:Is Kelly alive?
351
:Laura: Mm.
352
:Now I don't remember either
353
:Xhafer: we don't see him after the mutiny
354
:Laura: Maybe he's one of them
that is, like, volunteering to,
355
:Xhafer: service.
356
:Get out of prison rather.
357
:Laura: Yeah, like, commute
his sentence or whatever.
358
:But right, I thought he survived
the mutiny, but now that you
359
:say that, I'm not 100% sure.
360
:Xhafer: Yeah, I mean,
361
:who else, right?
362
:Laura: Mmhmm
363
:Xhafer: Lee's going, Ty's going.
364
:Laura: Mmhmm
365
:Xhafer: Hoshi I guess is the number
four guy on the ship at this point,
366
:Laura: Угу
367
:Xhafer: else is going, so it's Hoshi
368
:Laura: Yeah We like Hoshi though Hoshi
has done nothing objectionable to us
369
:Xhafer: Yeah, no.
370
:I mean, he even says it's all
like, "People will listen to you.
371
:You are universally respected."
372
:, Those are the important things to be
the admiral, so you're the admiral now.
373
:Laura: Yep
374
:but he says I will see you
at the rendezvous point
375
:Xhafer: Yep.
376
:Laura: but Adama's reminds him No no
no have 12 hours If we're not back in
377
:12 hours you get the fuck out of there
378
:Xhafer: Yep.
379
:We see the Cylons have installed
that red wall above Anders.
380
:It really brings the room together
381
:Laura: Mmhmm Gotta have
it You can't not have it
382
:Xhafer: Yeah.
383
:Cylon goo is just all over the place.
384
:It's just a gooey CIC now.
385
:Laura: Uhhuh Mmhmm Yeah
386
:Xhafer: Like…
387
:Yeah
388
:Laura: goes to like move some
cables or something and they're
389
:they're now they're moist
390
:Xhafer: Yeah.
391
:What do you do to clean this stuff up?
392
:Like, do you need industrial
solvent to get rid of Cylon goo?
393
:Laura: Yeah
394
:Xhafer: Is it just like
stove cleaner or something?
395
:Like, does Lysol handle it?
396
:Like, what's going on?
397
:We need to break this stuff down
398
:Laura: Do you have to get the good oxy out
399
:Xhafer: Right?
400
:Laura: Oh my God Jafer it's
401
:Xhafer: Laura.
402
:I know, he's the president now.
403
:President Lampkin
404
:Laura: I need you to know that Romo
Lampkin appeared on the screen and I
405
:paused I had Aaron pause it so that I
could write down OMG it's Romo Lampkin And
406
:then I turned to Aaron and I said I bet
he's the president now And then we started
407
:it back up and he's the president now
408
:Xhafer: Romo is the president now.
409
:Love it.
410
:Good for him
411
:Laura: Yeah He's gonna love this job
412
:Xhafer: He is.
413
:He's gonna take it so seriously.
414
:And he does, as we see in the one
scene of him doing president stuff
415
:Laura: Lee gives him a
handshake and Hoshi's there too
416
:Xhafer: Yep.
417
:Laura: last Raptor out and everybody
who is left has gotta get on
418
:it or they are now a volunteer
419
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
420
:Laura: Gaius and Paula are loading
up their shit when Gaius to go
421
:Xhafer: Yep.
422
:He's gonna stay and do the thing.
423
:He doesn't know why entirely,
but he feels he needs to.
424
:Laura: Yeah
425
:He says that he never
belonged to Paula's group
426
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm
427
:Laura: she's what they need and
good luck And there's a read on
428
:this you can take that is just like
429
:Gaius saw that He saw hard work
ahead of him as the leaders of
430
:these uh leader of these people
431
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
432
:Laura: just decided to nope out of that
hard work He's like I could do hard work
433
:for the rest of eternity as their guy or
I can do a little bit of hard work now
434
:and who knows what'll happen but won't
be as daunting as like the tedium of
435
:being a leader for the rest of my life
436
:Xhafer: Yeah.
437
:Laura: So I I kinda laughed at it I know
we're supposed to be like Oh this is Gaius
438
:big moment He's redeeming himself He's
doing a selfless thing But I was like Mm
439
:Xhafer: Yeah.
440
:Laura: is it
441
:Xhafer: Mm.
442
:Laura: though
443
:Xhafer: Is he just a little lazy?
444
:Mm.
445
:as soon as he steps on board, it's like,
"Oh, hey guys, you're a Marine now.
446
:I know you thought you'd
be doing science stuff.
447
:No."
448
:Laura: Yeah you are gonna be the reserves
449
:Xhafer: You could be up in CIC helping
with the Cylon technology interfacing
450
:with the military technology that you're
responsible for the programming for.
451
:Laura: Nah
452
:Xhafer: here's a gun.
453
:You're gonna guard this hallway
454
:Laura: Well you've got the final five
up there man or the other fuck around
455
:four managing Anders really Like do
you need What is Gaius gonna add to
456
:Xhafer: Yeah.
457
:Laura: the smarty pants Like they
they have direct knowledge whereas
458
:Gaius is just general smart guy
459
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
460
:Tory reminds us she doesn't
give a fuck about Hera
461
:Laura: Yeah She doesn't why
having faith will do her any good
462
:She's like I don't I don't care
463
:Xhafer: Yeah.
464
:Laura: what
465
:Xhafer: The--
466
:Laura: do for me Tori
467
:Xhafer: This scene is to re-remind you
that we don't like Tory, so that way
468
:in, like, 10 minutes you don't feel bad.
469
:Laura: Yeah I don't know that I needed
that necessarily I I Once I'm reminded
470
:of why I don't like Tory I'm like Oh
yeah right right right right right
471
:Xhafer: I agree.
472
:I think this scene probably plays
better for a non-streaming audience.
473
:Laura: Yeah
474
:Xhafer: 'Cause if--
475
:Laura: a minute
476
:Xhafer: It's been, two and a half years
or something since she killed Callie.
477
:Laura: Right
478
:Xhafer: So maybe a reminder ain't so bad.
479
:Laura: Gotta remember Uh we've
done a fun bit of business where we
480
:painted all our centurions the the
481
:Xhafer: The red stripes.
482
:Yeah.
483
:Laura: That's fun That it's
484
:Xhafer: Yeah.
485
:Yeah
486
:Laura: their body It's cute
487
:Xhafer: Yeah, it's fun.
488
:Laura: Mmhmm
489
:Xhafer: Every station on the ship
checks in While this is happening, we
490
:see Rosalind and Ishay in med bay where
she's getting instructions on how to
491
:be a, like, quick little triage nurse.
492
:Laura: Mmhmm even though Ishay is
the one who said You're so high
493
:I'm surprised you're not floating
494
:Xhafer: Yeah.
495
:Laura: the best we got for a triage nurse
496
:Xhafer: She's like, "When
someone's done, just, uh, just
497
:put this X on their forehead.
498
:They won't know what's going on."
499
:Yeah.
500
:Laura: yeah
501
:Xhafer: and it's all like you've picked
the person who's never gonna put an X
502
:on someone's forehead to be the person
who puts Xs on someone's forehead.
503
:And she realizes this about 10
minutes into the actual job, but
504
:Laura: Yeah Well I think it's not just
that Rosalyn's never gonna do it it's
505
:also that she's like Oh you'll know
But Rosalyn really doesn't know I think
506
:like when somebody is gonna make it but
we've got Gaius and Caprica both are
507
:reserve marine fighters apparently and
he's like I don't think you should be
508
:here And she's like have fought in many
more battles than you actually have
509
:and he's like Oh right okay but
everybody's a go Anders is a go
510
:We gotta have an Adama speech
511
:Xhafer: the, The admiral gets on the horn.
512
:If they don't fail Galactica,
Galactica won't fail them,
513
:is the essence of the speech.
514
:Laura: Mmhmm
515
:Xhafer: She'll get us home.
516
:Laura: it's gonna be her last thing
517
:Xhafer: Yeah
518
:Laura: will get us through this
519
:Xhafer: And then they jump
with what feels like, 100 feet.
520
:I know that it's more than that because
of the scale of space in these ships,
521
:but it feels like they jump like 10
feet away from the Cylon battle cruiser.
522
:Like, could have accidentally been
inside the Cylon battle cruiser
523
:Laura: We
524
:Xhafer: or the, the colony ship.
525
:Yeah, this is the colony.
526
:Laura: Right And uh guns are blazing
instantly I think from both sides
527
:Xhafer: Yeah.
528
:Laura: we plug in Anders to get
him to interrupt the other hybrids
529
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
530
:Laura: Uh and it we hear
the song a little bit as the
531
:Xhafer: Yeah.
532
:Laura: shut down and then I think
there's a color change like the other
533
:hybrids started out a certain color
like their pool and their lights and
534
:Xhafer: Yeah
535
:Laura: And then when Anders has
interfaced and interrupted them
536
:it changes color But I don't
537
:Xhafer: Yeah,
538
:Laura: to
539
:Xhafer: th- they start blue and turn
red, which is the color of Anders
540
:in the hybrid pod the entire time.
541
:It is also the color of the
first hybrid from the Racer movie
542
:Laura: Oh I didn't notice that Okay
543
:Xhafer: Yeah.
544
:Little things, little things.
545
:So these are the hybrids that
are more conscious, I suppose?
546
:Laura: Oh like they they
kinda have some awareness of
547
:Xhafer: Yeah
548
:Laura: other things besides
the math or whatever
549
:Xhafer: Yeah.
550
:The Raptors are hanging out in the
unused pod that was the museum.
551
:Uh, so we get one more shot
of the museum, which is fun.
552
:There's lots of OG "Battlestar"
fan service in this episode,
553
:more than any other episode of
this show, even the miniseries.
554
:Laura: Truly yeah
555
:Xhafer: We'll see when they start fighting
the Centurions, but it's mixed Centurions.
556
:It's the old school Centurions and
the new ones all over the place,
557
:Laura: Yeah
558
:Xhafer: um, which is fun.
559
:Uh, but the Raptors jump out from the
museum into a position above the colony
560
:as Galactica rams the colony ship.
561
:Laura: Yeah
562
:this is so good We got our Vipers
out there fighting We've got
563
:Galactica stuck into the colony
564
:we've got Lee just like blowing a hatch
on Galactica somewhere and then they
565
:can jump down into the colony ship
566
:and they discover they do
have some atmosphere here
567
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm
568
:Laura: be helmets off so we
can better understand them
569
:as they run through the hulls
570
:Xhafer: Yeah.
571
:I mean, I don't think the helmets
would offer a ton of protection against
572
:Cylon bullets, but you would think you
would not take these off in a combat
573
:situation where everyone else but
you can survive without atmosphere.
574
:Laura: That's true cause what
if they vent some shit on
575
:Xhafer: Yeah.
576
:Laura: any moment That's a
577
:Xhafer: Yeah.
578
:You send in centurions,
you vent the bitch.
579
:Laura: Yeah That would've been
a way to go Well I guess cause
580
:we can't resurrect anymore
581
:Xhafer: They got magnet
boots, they'll be fine.
582
:Laura: Like a Doral is just
stuck in a hallway somewhere
583
:Xhafer: It's a Doral.
584
:They're replaceable, whatever, fuck it.
585
:Laura: I think Doral has like one
line in this whole episode I think
586
:Xhafer: Besides get shot.
587
:Laura: right
588
:Xhafer: Uh, the, uh, the
colony l- launches raiders.
589
:When was the last time we saw a raider?
590
:Laura: Oh it's kind of been a minute We've
591
:Xhafer: It's been a minute
592
:Laura: about like Oh we would send a
raider to look for this but we didn't
593
:actually see the raider do anything
594
:Xhafer: Cause even the rebel Cylons
that we've seen fly the heavy raiders,
595
:not the normal raiders, 'cause
those, the pilots are built in, so
596
:Laura: Yeah we've got some raptors out
there struggling through the debris
597
:Xhafer: yep.
598
:Laura: Racetrack and Skulls
599
:Xhafer: Yep
600
:Laura: only for a second
601
:Xhafer: So s- Racetrack tells Skulls
to start warming up the nukes,
602
:Laura: Угу
603
:Xhafer: then gets got by a meteor
after he presses the button
604
:Laura: Yeah It's crazy
605
:Xhafer: we see them blow the front
doors off of Galactica as Lee's strike
606
:team pours in to start the assault.
607
:Laura: Угу
608
:Xhafer: of got but didn't really get
that I thought would've been cool here
609
:is, like, all the human Marines throw
down ropes to slide down, and then we see
610
:Cylons on the ground running past them.
611
:We should've seen Cylons jump
612
:Laura: I
613
:Xhafer: the top,
614
:Laura: leaping yes
615
:Xhafer: with them
leaping down and running.
616
:That could've been really cool.
617
:Laura: Yeah Mmhmm
618
:Xhafer: Like, really remind us
how terrifying these things are
619
:Laura: Yep I was sitting there
like I love that we've painted them
620
:with the red stripes so we know
621
:Xhafer: Угу
622
:Laura: But like they are still computers
as far as we know or or as we as humans
623
:Xhafer: Yeah.
624
:Laura: What if there's some sort of
wireless virus that Cavill could infect
625
:them with that turns them back Like
that would be terrifying you know
626
:Xhafer: It's like a throwaway line
like six episodes ago, but there
627
:is like a chip that they physically
removed from all of these Centurions.
628
:'Cause they show us the chip at one point.
629
:Yeah
630
:Laura: Like where that would be
the device through which Cavill
631
:could've theoretically done that And
632
:Xhafer: Yeah, I mean, who knows?
633
:Laura: is that device
is totally gone So these
634
:Xhafer: Yeah.
635
:Laura: unhackable centurions
as far as we've been
636
:Xhafer: They've got the free wills, so
637
:Laura: Okay It's funny that we I think
we already said this that we gave
638
:them the free wills and then we put
in a chip to block their free wills
639
:Xhafer: Yeah.
640
:Laura: Like why did you even
build it with the free wills
641
:Xhafer: So that we could take
it out dramatically later and
642
:give them their free wills back.
643
:Laura: Mmhmm
644
:Xhafer: Adama and Ty direct the
battle as four of the raptors land and
645
:start to cut their way into the ship.
646
:They move in and encounter
the two centurions.
647
:This is the first time we see one of
the old centurions running around.
648
:Laura: Mmhmm
649
:Xhafer: fun.
650
:Laura: Did we get guys in suits
you think or is this all CGI
651
:Xhafer: Oh, this is all CGI
652
:Laura: Cause you could have guy in suit
and then add some CGI on him That'd be fun
653
:Xhafer: Maybe.
654
:They're very shiny.
655
:They're like the fake metal shiny that
exists in CGI and never in real life.
656
:Laura: Mmhmm
657
:Xhafer: it seems like it'd
be a lot of extra money.
658
:Laura: Yeah That's fair I guess Uh we got
Simon He's like keeps doing medical shit
659
:Xhafer: Yeah, he's got the
weird thermometer thing
660
:Laura: he's
661
:Xhafer: with like the weird probe
662
:Laura: checking his vitals testing his
syringes I think we hear like a saw
663
:whirring at some point He's like ready to
664
:Xhafer: Yeah
665
:Laura: and Boomer's just like Hey
wh how can you still be doing this
666
:when we're under siege And he's like
Nah they can't win cause the math
667
:is against them It'll be fine And
she immediately just snaps his neck
668
:Xhafer: Got 'em
669
:we see a Cavill, another Simon,
and a Doral find the dead Simon
670
:and know Boomer took Hera.
671
:They're like, "Oh, you, you trusted her."
672
:It's like, "I didn't not trust her.
673
:I don't trust anybody.
674
:I just miscalculated."
675
:It's like, that's literally the definition
of not trusting someone, Cavill.
676
:Laura: Yeah
677
:Xhafer: own ass
678
:Laura: Yeah he's he's such a dipshit
Uh it hmm uh I don't know We'll we
679
:can talk about Cavil more at the end
680
:Xhafer: Yeah
681
:Laura: Caprica tells Gaius that she's
proud of him and she always wanted
682
:to be That was the only thing missing
from our relationship really was that
683
:you weren't somebody to be proud of
684
:Xhafer: Yeah
685
:Laura: Which for some reason they
find very romantic and kiss each other
686
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
687
:Laura: Uh
688
:Xhafer: they
689
:Laura: yes
690
:Xhafer: kiss, this kiss, this kiss.
691
:6BT and Grakish show up
to be like, "Yeah, guys."
692
:And then they realize that
they see both of them and that
693
:they both see both of them
694
:Laura: Yeah This is funny I mean
695
:Xhafer: Yeah.
696
:Laura: Gracas suit for
some reason and his hair
697
:Xhafer: His hair, he's so greasy
698
:Laura: he's so greasy and untrustworthy
just don't like it But yep we can see
699
:each other and they're just so pleased
about how the plan is coming together
700
:Xhafer: Yep Cylons begin to pour
into Galactica as Boomer carrying
701
:Hera makes it to the strike team.
702
:Athena takes Hera, tells Athena
to tell Adama that she owed him
703
:one, and then Athena kills Boomer
704
:Laura: Yeah Uh you think that
the one that she owes Adama is
705
:the fact that she fucking shot
706
:Xhafer: Shot him?
707
:No.
708
:No, that would be, that, that, that'd
be paying off the plot that we've
709
:already seen, and we can't do that with
all these flashback budget we've got.
710
:So instead, we flash back to Boomer
failing landing protocols on Galactica,
711
:where she's gonna wash out of the
military, and Adama gives her one
712
:more chance, so she owed him one.
713
:And Adama's all like, "Oh, you know,
they never pay you back for the ones
714
:they owe, especially the ones that,
you know, owe you their lives."
715
:She's like, "No, Papa Adama, one
day I'm gonna pay you back when
716
:it really means it, and it's
not gonna be not shooting you."
717
:Laura: This is so silly and I am a little
718
:Xhafer: This is the dumbest flashback.
719
:This actively takes away
from the characters.
720
:I hate this flashback
721
:Laura: I would be fine with it I guess
if it wasn't so strange Cause like the
722
:whole time also that they're dressing her
down a little bit and telling her like
723
:You have one last chance You're washing
724
:Xhafer: Угу.
725
:Laura: but you have one more chance
The whole time they're giving her this
726
:serious talk Sol and Adama are drinking
727
:Xhafer: Yeah.
728
:Laura: drunk
729
:Xhafer: Yeah.
730
:Laura: like I guess what they're
trying to show is that life before
731
:the fall was different I guess
732
:Xhafer: Yeah
733
:Laura: and they were like not taking
their work so seriously I guess But I
734
:don't know I didn't like it I was like
735
:Xhafer: I, God, it's shit like this
that makes me look at this and go,
736
:"I think I could edit this two-hour,
30-minute episode into a lean hour 15
737
:that is a better feeling finale to me."
738
:And it'd be just for me.
739
:I wouldn't do it for anyone else.
740
:I'd just, like, cut out
all this flashback shit.
741
:I'm gonna cut out maybe 20
minutes of the last 30 minutes.
742
:Laura: う ー ん
743
:Xhafer: And cut out the aggrandizing
space porn in the beginning.
744
:And I wonder where that puts
this episode in terms of time
745
:Laura: Mmhmm
746
:Xhafer: Maybe, yeah, we'll see.
747
:I haven't done video editing in a while.
748
:That might be a fun
little side thing to try
749
:Laura: I guess what they're trying
to do with this flashback is that
750
:like we had had this impression
of Boomer Adama as like Boomer
751
:was almost like second daughter to
752
:Xhafer: Yeah
753
:Laura: and so they're trying to like
Ah yes and here's why he gave her a
754
:second chance And you think that this
is about you know this I owe you one
755
:is about the fact that she shot him but
actually they had this secret private
756
:thing that it's really about and no
one else knows and Adama may never know
757
:But she's paying that debt back not
this other debt And I'm like Eh okay I
758
:Xhafer: Do you think Athena, like, brings
Hera back, talks to the old man and goes,
759
:"Hey, I fucking killed Boomer for you.
760
:By the way, she said she owed you one.
761
:Because we have the same brain up
until a certain point, she meant it for
762
:this thing, but that's fucking weird.
763
:She should have meant it for shooting
you, so I just took the bitch out."
764
:Laura: I hope so I
765
:Xhafer: Right?
766
:Laura: that out and he got
to know But yeah we got sick
767
:bay Ishay's calling for help
768
:Xhafer: Yeah, it's a bad day.
769
:Laura: trying to comfort this guy
who is spurting things Like we got
770
:something is spurting That is never good
in the first aid world Uh and Rosalyn
771
:cannot or doesn't grab the marker
and Ishay quickly puts an X on this
772
:guy and is like No no no While while
773
:Xhafer: Yeah.
774
:Laura: to say It's gonna be
okay so not good at triage
775
:nurse but what can you do She
776
:Xhafer: Yeah
777
:Laura: of her own drugs
778
:Xhafer: Uh, We see Gaius and Caprica
take out a centurion as Lee and
779
:the remaining strike team and the
raptor group, , fall into the ship.
780
:Laura: Yeah they they met up and
retraced their steps back They had
781
:told uh for some reason as Athena's
talking to Boomer like Well you can't
782
:go back to your ship just so you know
783
:Xhafer: Yeah
784
:Laura: shoot me and Athena's like
Well we weren't gonna do that anyway
785
:And Starbuck is like Hey maybe
don't tell this bad Cylon our plan
786
:And then we meet up with
Lee real quick cause that
787
:Xhafer: Yeah
788
:Laura: was like We are taking this other
exit out that maybe hadn't anticipated so
789
:Xhafer: Yeah.
790
:Uh, Lee stays with, Gaius and Caprica
to defend as Rosalyn takes some stims
791
:to keep pushing through and helping out.
792
:She sees the opera house, and
she starts moving to Hera.
793
:Adoral shoots Helo, and Hera runs off.
794
:Helo grabs his own tourniquet to
stop the bleeding, to give Athena
795
:the ability to chase after Hera
796
:Laura: Yeah he's Like Go get our
daughter And she's like But you'll
797
:die And he's like I won't but you
gotta go get our little girl who's
798
:now running through a war zone
799
:Xhafer: Yeah, this, this
is a little more important.
800
:I'll just sit here and
hold this tourniquet.
801
:It'll be fine.
802
:And we get the opera house vision.
803
:There's a lot of this as it's cutting
in and out, so we'll see stuff happen
804
:in the real world, and then we'll see
stuff happen in the opera house vision
805
:as they kinda like overlap and overlay.
806
:, Cavil boards Galactica with
a handful of Centurions.
807
:Rosalyn takes Hera and hides from Cavil
and those Centurions as they move past,
808
:but when she, like, gets up, Hera is gone.
809
:Uh, and she runs into Gaius and
Caprica Six, just like the vision.
810
:Laura: Угу
811
:Xhafer: see each other at, like, the
end of a hallway, just like they saw
812
:each other from across in the dream.
813
:And then we see the end.
814
:Gaius and Six get Hera.
815
:They go into CIC, and they see the
final five on the balcony above them,
816
:Laura: Yeah they are
817
:Xhafer: is them
818
:Laura: perfectly still when
we see that the rest of CIC
819
:is fucking chaos around them
820
:Xhafer: is so weird.
821
:Like, I know we're, like, doing
the Vision thing, but, like, why
822
:are they just standing there on
the edge to match the like…
823
:They could have, like, been doing
stuff and been laid out in a
824
:way where the set design could
have allowed for it to be both
825
:Laura: Mmhmm
826
:Xhafer: of them just like, "Ah."
827
:Laura: They are standing like
arms at sides Everybody is just
828
:staring straight forward arms at
829
:Xhafer: Yeah.
830
:Laura: And I was like no it could've been
more natural It could've been like Ellen
831
:is is looking at Anders or something
832
:Xhafer: Yeah.
833
:Laura: uh Saul is trying
to draw his gun Like it
834
:Xhafer: Yeah
835
:Laura: some motion
836
:Xhafer: Do you think they're actually
doing that stuff and that this is
837
:just the vision fucking with them?
838
:Laura: That could be I guess Yeah
839
:Xhafer: Yeah
840
:Laura: we had like them standing
stock still but then we see that
841
:they were actually like in those
places but moving then you're
842
:Xhafer: Yeah.
843
:Laura: they're just like seeing
844
:Xhafer: Yeah, doing the thing.
845
:Laura: or whatever Yeah yeah yeah
So got like a Simon who's like
846
:clutching his chest or something
847
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
848
:Laura: kicks him in the
butt and he falls over
849
:Xhafer: Yeah.
850
:Laura: So we're like people are
dead and dying all around but
851
:Xhafer: Yeah.
852
:Laura: fighting in CIC except for Gaius
and Hera and Six and the final five but
853
:Cavil somehow gets in here and grabs Hera
854
:and Gaius decides this is a great
time to just babble about religion
855
:Xhafer: Yeah.
856
:Laura: Can
857
:Xhafer: He's…
858
:Laura: this here instead
859
:Xhafer: Yeah.
860
:Laura: till the end
861
:Xhafer: We can talk about
whatever you want, Laura.
862
:That's fine.
863
:Laura: So
864
:Xhafer: about?
865
:Laura: I know what is
happening here like logically
866
:Xhafer: And, you know
that it will happen again.
867
:Laura: I guess
868
:Xhafer: Yeah.
869
:Eh, the thing…
870
:, continue, sorry
871
:Laura: I just am so confused
as to why this works on Cavill
872
:Because he spent all that time in a
couple episodes back mocking Ellen
873
:Xhafer: Yeah.
874
:Laura: kinda mocking God He doesn't
believe in God We know that Like
875
:he doesn't believe in higher powers
876
:Xhafer: Yeah
877
:Laura: I think in his very first
episode with Tyrell he's like a
878
:priest but he doesn't believe in
God and that's like the joke right
879
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
880
:Laura: yet Gaius religious babble is
so convincing and honestly I'm gonna
881
:be honest with everybody here cause
that's why why even have a podcast
882
:if you can't be honest with the tens
of thousands of people who to you
883
:Xhafer: Yeah
884
:Laura: who they are I couldn't follow
this Like I don't know if it's just
885
:like the pace of everything up until
this moment or what is happening but was
886
:saying a bunch of words I didn't know
what any I was not paying attention or
887
:something Like I could not absorb them
888
:Xhafer: Uh, there's God.
889
:Uh, you know, and Kev's like,
"How do I know God's on my side?"
890
:And Gaius is all like, "God
doesn't take sides, y'all.
891
:It's God.
892
:It's, there's not good or evil.
893
:Those are our
894
:constructs."
895
:Ooh.
896
:It's, it's, it's on the cutting room
floor on my hour 15 cut of this.
897
:In fact, I would cut this speech.
898
:I would cut the entire
temporary ceasefire.
899
:I'd cut all that.
900
:I'd cut the giving them resurrection.
901
:I'd cut killing Tory.
902
:To cut the flashback with Galen later.
903
:None of this means anything.
904
:None of it has no impact on the plot.
905
:It's a temporary thing, and it feels
like it's filler, and I didn't like it.
906
:It's the…
907
:For a finale that has some really
strong points in it and some really
908
:good character moments, some of this is
just taking it all away for no reason.
909
:Gaius doesn't need this speech
910
:Laura: I feel like I was supposed
to be just so distracted by
911
:how charismatic James Callis is
912
:Xhafer: Yeah, right.
913
:Laura: this
914
:Xhafer: He's good at it.
915
:Laura: and I was supposed to not notice
that this goes entirely against what
916
:Cavill's been about up until this point
917
:Xhafer: Yeah
918
:Laura: I did not like that very much
but Saul is the one who says We're gonna
919
:give you resurrection if you just give
us Hera and we can all go our separate
920
:ways okay Okay buddy Uh and so that's
when we do cease fire We do stand down
921
:and we're gonna have a different moment
so all the Vipers and Raptors get to come
922
:back Everybody's back on board Athena
Hera The five have to all interface
923
:Apparently that's been the secret all
along was not mentioned up until this
924
:moment either is that the five each
know a piece of resurrection and you had
925
:to have all of them in order to get it
926
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
927
:Laura: So
928
:Xhafer: Sure
929
:Laura: just trying to take it out of Ellen
wasn't gonna work but nobody knew that
930
:until this moment I kinda wish this had
been mentioned earlier is all I'm saying
931
:Xhafer: It's like, hey, you know,
we never really touched back on
932
:the fact that Tori killed Callie.
933
:We should probably have
Galen find out somehow.
934
:How do we wanna do that?"
935
:And so like, what if we have
all the final five mind meld?
936
:Laura: Yeah So they have to mind meld
to give the resurrection into the
937
:goo the hybrid goo which will then
go in the data stream because we're
938
:gonna mind meld everyone is gonna
know everything about everyone else
939
:Xhafer: Yep.
940
:Laura: Which you know there is the
whole Tory killed Callie problem
941
:Xhafer: Yeah
942
:Laura: we were told a couple
episodes back that Tyrell and
943
:Tory had been married correct
944
:Xhafer: Yeah
945
:Laura: And you know the fuck around
four couldn't remember it because their
946
:memories were still blocked and all
that But it seems like Ellen knows their
947
:every like their whole lives before
948
:Xhafer: So this should get all of that.
949
:Laura: she
950
:Xhafer: It does feel like that
951
:Laura: So Tyrell shouldn't
be just seeing like killed my
952
:wife but she was also my wife
953
:Xhafer: Yeah.
954
:2,000 years of memories from
Ellen of their past that
955
:they suddenly get access to?
956
:Laura: Even if they didn't know each
other all:
957
:clearly knew each other for a time while
they were had this plot that they were
958
:Xhafer: Yeah
959
:Laura: right So even then he could
have seen through Ellen's eyes them
960
:interacting as husband and wife and that
just doesn't enter into this anywhere
961
:Xhafer: Welcome, welcome
to Battlestar Galactica.
962
:first time, I know.
963
:Laura: Mmhmm
964
:Xhafer: yeah.
965
:Yep, it's indefensible.
966
:You're right.
967
:Laura: yeah
968
:Xhafer: the logic of the own show
969
:Laura: I don't don't mind what happens
So as Simon is reporting that the
970
:resurrection data is good things
are going We also see that Tyrell is
971
:seeing Callie's death and he loses it
And Anders and all the hybrids start
972
:screaming as he snaps Tori's neck Like
973
:Xhafer: Mm-hmm
974
:Laura: I guess I don't mind that Tyrell
is like so hurt but I feel like you could
975
:have acknowledged that like the past
that they had in that painful moment And
976
:so he's seeing like not only did Tori
betray me but she was my wife and she
977
:betrayed me also I don't know it just
978
:Xhafer: Yeah.
979
:Laura: it wasn't enough
It wasn't complete to me
980
:Xhafer: Yeah.
981
:Laura: but yeah the data
stream stops and this is very
982
:Xhafer: Yeah
983
:Laura: things are moving fast It was
chaotic To me everyone just started
984
:firing and for some reason Cavill who
has been pretty crafty and resilient up
985
:Xhafer: Yeah, he's just like, "Nope."
986
:Laura: Yep I oh no
987
:Xhafer: It doesn't, it doesn't feel right.
988
:I think you can cut this in a way where
the fighting never stops, Cavill realizes
989
:he's gonna lose, and just kills himself
990
:Laura: You could do that yeah
991
:Xhafer: is what I, as I keep selling
myself on making this cut mentally
992
:while we're having this conversation,
well, that's how I'll handle it
993
:Laura: I mean even if like you kept
this to me Cavill realizes Oh crap
994
:this is going south He turns to run
and somebody shoots him in the back
995
:Xhafer: Yeah.
996
:Laura: I don't know That
997
:Xhafer: Yeah, that feels more Cavill.
998
:Laura: Yeah
999
:Xhafer: Racetrack fires off all the nukes.
:
00:46:33,148 --> 00:46:33,438
Laura: Yeah
:
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:34,780
Xhafer: just, like, barely alive
:
00:46:35,728 --> 00:46:41,148
Laura: so was the I I wasn't clear
on it Was the plan with Racetrack
:
00:46:41,148 --> 00:46:45,298
and Skulls they were gonna hover out
here and wait to throw the nukes at
:
00:46:45,298 --> 00:46:48,068
some point Or were they supposed to
be going in with the other Raptors
:
00:46:48,088 --> 00:46:49,778
but they also had their nukes ready
:
00:46:49,838 --> 00:46:54,148
Xhafer: I think maybe the raptors
all had nukes and they were gonna…
:
00:46:54,198 --> 00:46:55,648
That was part of the exit plan.
:
00:46:56,098 --> 00:46:57,248
Or I don't know.
:
00:46:57,408 --> 00:46:58,028
I don't know
:
00:46:58,211 --> 00:47:00,781
Laura: Yeah I I cause I could see
it being like Well we're gonna
:
00:47:00,781 --> 00:47:02,471
keep this one raptor out here
:
00:47:02,950 --> 00:47:03,410
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:47:03,501 --> 00:47:07,261
Laura: about and if everything
goes tits up it fires all the nukes
:
00:47:07,730 --> 00:47:08,160
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:47:08,331 --> 00:47:11,781
Laura: but it it also seemed like because
they got hit by the asteroid they were
:
00:47:11,781 --> 00:47:13,411
just disabled out there and they were
:
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:13,840
Xhafer: Yeah
:
00:47:13,931 --> 00:47:17,921
Laura: have gone in with everybody else
I don't know how Racetrack knows when to
:
00:47:17,921 --> 00:47:20,291
fire these nukes but good timing I guess
:
00:47:20,818 --> 00:47:22,768
Xhafer: Yeah, if it had been 10
minutes earlier, that would've been
:
00:47:22,868 --> 00:47:25,268
bad for everyone, but it works out.
:
00:47:25,340 --> 00:47:28,783
Laura: just been open this whole time
and she heard everything in there I
:
00:47:28,830 --> 00:47:29,320
Xhafer: Yeah
:
00:47:29,543 --> 00:47:32,223
Laura: Or maybe it's supposed to
be divine intervention Whatever
:
00:47:32,292 --> 00:47:32,792
Xhafer: Yep.
:
00:47:33,029 --> 00:47:38,109
So Galactica pulls out and they need
to jump the ship, and Starbuck's the
:
00:47:38,109 --> 00:47:42,469
one at the FTL panel, so she has to
enter the coordinates, and she puts the
:
00:47:42,469 --> 00:47:46,509
coordinates from the song to jump the ship
:
00:47:52,362 --> 00:47:53,772
Laura: She's she hears her dad saying
Hey trust yourself Um she sees like
:
00:47:53,792 --> 00:47:59,222
visions of the piano and hears stars
and just keeps playing the song
:
00:47:59,222 --> 00:48:00,562
on the keyboard cause she already
:
00:48:00,729 --> 00:48:01,199
Xhafer: Yep
:
00:48:01,402 --> 00:48:02,462
Laura: what numbers are what
:
00:48:02,991 --> 00:48:07,071
, Xhafer: We cut back to Kara and Lee
drinking next to the passed out Zach.
:
00:48:07,571 --> 00:48:11,291
Kara says she isn't scared of dying,
she's only scared of being forgotten.
:
00:48:11,861 --> 00:48:16,261
This is the only part of any of these
flashbacks that I think is meaningful
:
00:48:17,576 --> 00:48:19,896
Laura: Hmm Okay Yeah Sure
:
00:48:20,292 --> 00:48:22,402
Xhafer: j- and just, just this line.
:
00:48:22,622 --> 00:48:27,232
If there's a way to do these flashbacks
with keeping this line in a way that
:
00:48:27,232 --> 00:48:30,352
makes sense with the other flash- a
little bit of the other flashbacks maybe.
:
00:48:31,162 --> 00:48:32,682
Uh, but I don't know.
:
00:48:33,694 --> 00:48:34,674
we see Galactica.
:
00:48:34,865 --> 00:48:35,815
Laura: jump though This is
:
00:48:35,874 --> 00:48:36,444
Xhafer: This is the,
:
00:48:36,535 --> 00:48:36,885
Laura: talking
:
00:48:36,954 --> 00:48:38,224
Xhafer: this is the big creek.
:
00:48:38,574 --> 00:48:40,774
This is me, uh, this…
:
00:48:40,774 --> 00:48:45,504
Galactica is like my back at the
chiropractor in this, where it
:
00:48:45,504 --> 00:48:49,574
is just all out of place and we
hope it just settles correctly.
:
00:48:49,963 --> 00:48:50,623
Laura: Yep
:
00:48:51,214 --> 00:48:52,264
Xhafer: The
:
00:48:52,643 --> 00:48:56,173
Laura: the first time Galactica jumped
into the colony I was like I didn't hear a
:
00:48:56,173 --> 00:49:02,273
creak Jafer talked about a creak realized
oh yes we can jump one more time so
:
00:49:02,798 --> 00:49:03,178
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:49:03,333 --> 00:49:04,933
Laura: is that is the creaky bits
:
00:49:05,013 --> 00:49:06,493
Xhafer: That is the creaky bits.
:
00:49:07,043 --> 00:49:08,023
Wave.
:
00:49:08,093 --> 00:49:08,623
Oh.
:
00:49:09,057 --> 00:49:10,247
Laura: thing Not
:
00:49:10,403 --> 00:49:12,383
Xhafer: It's like, it's
not supposed to do that.
:
00:49:13,789 --> 00:49:16,649
Laura: Uh Adama's like
calling for the situation
:
00:49:17,834 --> 00:49:18,264
Xhafer: Yeah
:
00:49:18,699 --> 00:49:20,289
Laura: moping and thinking about Callie
:
00:49:21,802 --> 00:49:22,342
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:49:22,502 --> 00:49:26,692
We get a flashback to Callie yelling
at him for being sloppy because
:
00:49:26,692 --> 00:49:31,572
this was back when relationships on
board were super illegal, back when
:
00:49:31,572 --> 00:49:33,492
there were a lot more people around.
:
00:49:35,529 --> 00:49:38,359
Laura: Yes and he's being too careless
with Boomer cause she caught them
:
00:49:38,359 --> 00:49:41,749
like in a closet or something And
:
00:49:43,869 --> 00:49:49,919
tells him he needs to know the people he
can count on and those that he can't which
:
00:49:50,649 --> 00:49:54,869
also didn't seem to be doing much for me
:
00:49:55,176 --> 00:49:55,596
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:49:55,809 --> 00:50:00,939
Laura: line Like is it just a joke that
like ha ha Tyrell's never really gotten
:
00:50:00,939 --> 00:50:06,529
it Like Tyrell's never really understood
who he could count on and who he couldn't
:
00:50:07,456 --> 00:50:07,886
Xhafer: Yeah
:
00:50:08,269 --> 00:50:09,709
Laura: It just seems like a ha ha moment
:
00:50:10,766 --> 00:50:11,606
Xhafer: For sure.
:
00:50:11,966 --> 00:50:13,656
Galactica will never jump again.
:
00:50:14,106 --> 00:50:22,206
Rosalyn asks where we are, and we
zoom out to see the moon and Africa
:
00:50:22,949 --> 00:50:24,069
Laura: It's real Earth
:
00:50:25,032 --> 00:50:26,462
Xhafer: How did you feel in this moment?
:
00:50:27,873 --> 00:50:32,147
Laura: I mean I kind of thought
it was clever in that like oh yeah
:
00:50:32,147 --> 00:50:35,437
we never actually saw Earth when
:
00:50:35,509 --> 00:50:35,939
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:50:36,697 --> 00:50:43,127
Laura: Like we were told Yep this is Earth
and it's dead Oopsie doodle But we never
:
00:50:43,127 --> 00:50:45,817
actually saw the big blue marble you know
:
00:50:46,229 --> 00:50:46,659
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:50:47,137 --> 00:50:50,037
They, they're very like, "Oh,
we put so much of that planet in
:
00:50:50,037 --> 00:50:53,587
shadows that you just saw some
of the right colors and stuff,
:
00:50:53,587 --> 00:50:53,967
Laura: Mm-hmm
:
00:50:54,136 --> 00:50:56,616
Xhafer: clouds," and yep.
:
00:50:58,542 --> 00:51:00,282
Laura: I don't hate it
:
00:51:01,073 --> 00:51:01,703
Xhafer: You can.
:
00:51:02,392 --> 00:51:04,212
Laura: I don't hate it I just
:
00:51:04,213 --> 00:51:04,563
Xhafer: Okay
:
00:51:04,712 --> 00:51:11,972
Laura: is kind of silly that then we
like have this discussion later with
:
00:51:11,972 --> 00:51:15,967
Rosalind and Adama and Adama's like
Well this is Earth And I'm like Okay
:
00:51:17,098 --> 00:51:17,548
Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
:
00:51:17,987 --> 00:51:23,556
Laura: I don't know but we see them
like stalking a prehuman civilization
:
00:51:23,957 --> 00:51:24,327
Xhafer: Yeah
:
00:51:24,616 --> 00:51:27,396
Laura: and having a little jokey jokes
:
00:51:28,365 --> 00:51:28,735
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:51:28,795 --> 00:51:33,905
We get Gaius, Hoshi, Adama, Cottle,
and Ty on the ground observing.
:
00:51:34,795 --> 00:51:36,705
Cottle has tested some of their DNA.
:
00:51:36,705 --> 00:51:41,975
He found some graves, and they are
compatible with colonial humanity
:
00:51:42,836 --> 00:51:43,066
Laura: Mmhmm
:
00:51:43,829 --> 00:51:49,629
Xhafer: So these are like Neanderthals,
and the colonials are like our protohumans
:
00:51:50,071 --> 00:51:50,501
Laura: Yeah
:
00:51:50,669 --> 00:51:52,449
Xhafer: like, our own
evolutionary history.
:
00:51:52,549 --> 00:51:52,789
Laura: Okay
:
00:51:53,205 --> 00:51:53,450
they
:
00:51:53,613 --> 00:51:53,863
Xhafer: said
:
00:51:54,210 --> 00:51:58,910
Laura: puzzled about how humans
could humanlike life could be here
:
00:51:59,181 --> 00:51:59,741
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:51:59,741 --> 00:52:01,151
Gaius rambles.
:
00:52:01,161 --> 00:52:06,938
It's all like, "The chances are
astronomically low, but still possible."
:
00:52:09,397 --> 00:52:11,134
Laura: but this is it We gotta stay here
:
00:52:12,053 --> 00:52:12,583
Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
:
00:52:13,624 --> 00:52:14,994
Laura: cause Galactica's dead
:
00:52:15,673 --> 00:52:16,013
Xhafer: Yeah
:
00:52:16,424 --> 00:52:21,038
Laura: even though we do have a base
ship But yeah no I mean this seems right
:
00:52:21,677 --> 00:52:22,017
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:52:22,038 --> 00:52:23,188
Laura: fine I guess
:
00:52:24,017 --> 00:52:28,047
Xhafer: Lampkin and Hoshi talk city
planning, but Lee is all like, "No.
:
00:52:28,667 --> 00:52:29,107
No.
:
00:52:29,137 --> 00:52:31,567
Let's not do society, shall we?
:
00:52:31,627 --> 00:52:35,617
let's just disperse ourselves amongst
the locals and hope for the best."
:
00:52:36,305 --> 00:52:39,938
Laura: Yeah Romo just kind
of rolls over it this easier
:
00:52:40,072 --> 00:52:40,532
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:52:40,868 --> 00:52:41,798
Laura: from his character
:
00:52:42,822 --> 00:52:45,702
Xhafer: He is surprised
people are on board with this.
:
00:52:46,382 --> 00:52:47,022
Same.
:
00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:53,840
Laura: I mean same Yeah these people uh
and we're s we're supposed to believe that
:
00:52:54,230 --> 00:52:59,330
these people have had such a hard time
They're ready to go back to the land You
:
00:52:59,330 --> 00:53:01,490
know they've been four years in space They
:
00:53:01,536 --> 00:53:02,006
Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
:
00:53:03,540 --> 00:53:06,750
Laura: a simplistic little
thing but have you met people
:
00:53:07,886 --> 00:53:08,226
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:53:08,670 --> 00:53:13,150
Laura: Have you met people who
like to be comfortable and don't
:
00:53:13,150 --> 00:53:14,590
wanna give up their comforts
:
00:53:15,652 --> 00:53:16,572
Xhafer: So much comfort.
:
00:53:17,482 --> 00:53:22,782
And yeah, I mean, it's just like we're
gonna throw all the ships into the sun.
:
00:53:23,242 --> 00:53:24,672
What's the worst that could happen?
:
00:53:25,536 --> 00:53:30,566
Laura: Mmhmm well that then that
cause we did say Anders is gonna pilot
:
00:53:30,566 --> 00:53:32,256
all the ships into the sun but we
:
00:53:32,314 --> 00:53:32,664
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:53:32,796 --> 00:53:34,586
Laura: raptors on the ground at least one
:
00:53:35,054 --> 00:53:35,664
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:53:35,876 --> 00:53:37,556
Laura: What's gonna happen to that raptor
:
00:53:38,954 --> 00:53:38,964
Xhafer: Shh.
:
00:53:38,974 --> 00:53:42,744
Uh, Adama is responsible for putting
it in the ocean at some point probably
:
00:53:43,652 --> 00:53:47,402
Laura: I was like is Adama gonna
pilot it into the sun Because he's
:
00:53:47,402 --> 00:53:49,812
lost mom and now he's very super sad
:
00:53:50,778 --> 00:53:52,618
Xhafer: Yeah, we should,
we should get to that.
:
00:53:52,698 --> 00:53:54,888
We got a little bit of scenes
before we get to that, but
:
00:53:54,888 --> 00:53:55,908
we need to talk about that.
:
00:53:56,274 --> 00:53:56,574
Laura: Okay
:
00:53:56,838 --> 00:53:58,408
Xhafer: so we get some exposition.
:
00:53:58,507 --> 00:54:02,302
The The Centurions are piecing on the
base ship, but the rebel Cylons are
:
00:54:02,302 --> 00:54:06,142
staying on Earth and are going to disperse
themselves amongst the human population
:
00:54:06,371 --> 00:54:08,011
Laura: Yeah they're gonna go help
:
00:54:08,568 --> 00:54:08,878
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:54:10,021 --> 00:54:14,601
Laura: we're gonna give all the civilians
as much supplies as possible We're gonna
:
00:54:14,601 --> 00:54:16,751
disperse them on all the continents
:
00:54:17,148 --> 00:54:17,588
Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
:
00:54:18,331 --> 00:54:22,131
Laura: Romo again is our skeptical
audience member going Well what
:
00:54:22,131 --> 00:54:26,821
if those Centurions just gain
strength and come back later And
:
00:54:26,832 --> 00:54:27,232
Xhafer: Yeah
:
00:54:27,371 --> 00:54:34,257
Laura: take that chance I guess we do see
Starbuck talking to Anders She gives him a
:
00:54:34,257 --> 00:54:37,514
kiss goodbye puts her dog tags in the goo
:
00:54:38,011 --> 00:54:38,471
Xhafer: Mm-hmm
:
00:54:38,874 --> 00:54:42,094
Laura: And he has a moment of
lucidity and tells her that he
:
00:54:42,094 --> 00:54:43,624
will see her on the other side
:
00:54:44,559 --> 00:54:44,919
Xhafer: Yep.
:
00:54:45,584 --> 00:54:49,794
, We see just like it's planned, Adama's the
last one off the ship, flying that Viper.
:
00:54:50,134 --> 00:54:54,494
He flies around a couple of times, and
then as the ships all fly into the sun,
:
00:54:54,814 --> 00:54:57,204
the OG Battlestar Galactica theme plays
:
00:54:57,945 --> 00:55:02,553
Laura: Yeah Oh so he also had a Viper on
the surface He has a Raptor and a Viper
:
00:55:03,300 --> 00:55:04,320
Xhafer: Don't ask questions.
:
00:55:06,020 --> 00:55:07,210
It's all part of his plan.
:
00:55:07,863 --> 00:55:11,363
Laura: W Galactica looked really
rough They did a really good job with
:
00:55:11,363 --> 00:55:14,813
these like digital assets or whatever
:
00:55:15,033 --> 00:55:15,373
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:55:15,487 --> 00:55:19,307
Laura: Galactica was very convincingly
beaten up as it flies away
:
00:55:20,023 --> 00:55:20,313
Xhafer: Yeah
:
00:55:21,007 --> 00:55:23,717
Laura: We find out Tyrol's
gonna go be alone forever
:
00:55:24,113 --> 00:55:24,443
Xhafer: Yep.
:
00:55:24,723 --> 00:55:26,963
Tyrrell is gonna go, chill in Ireland.
:
00:55:28,255 --> 00:55:28,585
Laura: Yep
:
00:55:29,103 --> 00:55:29,493
Xhafer: Yep.
:
00:55:29,713 --> 00:55:30,403
Just hanging out.
:
00:55:31,163 --> 00:55:32,703
The Tys say goodbye to him.
:
00:55:33,503 --> 00:55:38,513
We get a cut to Ty's retirement
party and how him and Ellen just
:
00:55:38,513 --> 00:55:40,163
get to be together for forever now
:
00:55:40,937 --> 00:55:42,237
Laura: Mmhmm Doing shots
:
00:55:42,649 --> 00:55:43,009
Xhafer: Yep
:
00:55:43,847 --> 00:55:49,237
Laura: Ty and Ellen definitely
immediately set up a still on this planet
:
00:55:49,237 --> 00:55:53,407
right They're gonna introduce these
natives to alcohol and fermentation
:
00:55:53,931 --> 00:55:54,781
Xhafer: For sure.
:
00:55:56,567 --> 00:56:00,115
Mom and Dad are watching some
wildlife Roslyn asks if the planet
:
00:56:00,135 --> 00:56:01,935
has a name, and Bill says, "Fuck it.
:
00:56:02,365 --> 00:56:02,735
Earth."
:
00:56:07,347 --> 00:56:07,927
Laura: Okay
:
00:56:08,983 --> 00:56:10,303
Xhafer: You've had first breakfast.
:
00:56:10,303 --> 00:56:11,863
How about second breakfast?
:
00:56:14,349 --> 00:56:17,649
Laura: Yeah because Earth was
the dream That was the dream we
:
00:56:17,649 --> 00:56:19,679
were chasing for most of the show
:
00:56:20,023 --> 00:56:20,413
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:56:20,589 --> 00:56:21,929
Laura: let's let this be Earth
:
00:56:22,323 --> 00:56:23,523
Xhafer: Yeah, we'll just say it's Earth.
:
00:56:23,533 --> 00:56:25,173
I mean, we're naming planets.
:
00:56:25,173 --> 00:56:25,583
Fuck it
:
00:56:26,129 --> 00:56:29,306
Laura: Mmhmm she's not
breathing so good though
:
00:56:30,085 --> 00:56:30,935
Xhafer: No.
:
00:56:30,985 --> 00:56:34,415
, Bill puts her in the raptor so they
can get a closer look at some wildlife.
:
00:56:34,935 --> 00:56:38,435
And as they're doing this, Lee and
Kara run over to say goodbye to Dad
:
00:56:39,208 --> 00:56:40,898
Laura: Yeah it's real sad
:
00:56:41,290 --> 00:56:41,800
Xhafer: yeah.
:
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:45,050
He, uh, he's like, "I ain't
got much time," you know?
:
00:56:45,050 --> 00:56:46,190
And Lee's like, "I understand."
:
00:56:46,190 --> 00:56:49,860
So he takes off, and Lee said that he
spent his childhood watching his dad
:
00:56:49,890 --> 00:56:52,970
leave and wondering when he'd come
back, and this time he knows he isn't
:
00:56:54,180 --> 00:56:54,900
Laura: Yeah
:
00:56:55,804 --> 00:56:58,544
Xhafer: And then Kara's just
like, "Actually, now that you
:
00:56:58,544 --> 00:57:00,354
mention it, I think I'm out too.
:
00:57:00,804 --> 00:57:02,604
Uh, had a good run.
:
00:57:03,204 --> 00:57:04,524
did what I needed to.
:
00:57:05,024 --> 00:57:06,514
Everything feels good.
:
00:57:07,314 --> 00:57:08,834
What are you gonna do
with your time, Lee?"
:
00:57:08,894 --> 00:57:12,524
And as he starts to, like, talk about
it, he, like, looks away for a second,
:
00:57:12,584 --> 00:57:16,884
and when he turns back, Kara has vanished
:
00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:22,130
Laura: Yeah he's he's like I wanted
to be a lazy bones when this was all
:
00:57:22,130 --> 00:57:26,210
over but I'm gonna go explore I'm
so excited And then Kara's just gone
:
00:57:26,596 --> 00:57:27,106
Xhafer: Yep.
:
00:57:27,130 --> 00:57:31,741
Th-th-they show us a flashback
in here of them almost fucking,
:
00:57:32,826 --> 00:57:33,626
Laura: Yeah
:
00:57:33,651 --> 00:57:36,901
Xhafer: which didn't need that
:
00:57:37,822 --> 00:57:40,582
Laura: Yeah But we just need to
know that they've always been will
:
00:57:40,582 --> 00:57:44,402
they won't they since even when
she was engaged to his brother
:
00:57:44,901 --> 00:57:46,291
Xhafer: Ja, duh.
:
00:57:46,512 --> 00:57:50,842
Laura: they were gonna do it that
very night after doing the shots on
:
00:57:50,842 --> 00:57:58,032
the table but they broke a glass Zach
stirred enough to say Oh hey something
:
00:57:58,042 --> 00:58:01,522
has broken like our relationship
:
00:58:02,149 --> 00:58:02,699
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:58:03,439 --> 00:58:04,759
Symbolism.
:
00:58:04,889 --> 00:58:06,609
I believe the word you're
looking for is symbolism.
:
00:58:12,119 --> 00:58:17,379
Laura: And then uh Lee decides to
go like a gentleman and shake hands
:
00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:18,430
Xhafer: Yep.
:
00:58:19,007 --> 00:58:25,077
Uh, we cut to, Laura kicking Sam
out in her flashback and joining the
:
00:58:25,157 --> 00:58:27,457
Mayor Adar's presidential campaign.
:
00:58:27,952 --> 00:58:32,211
And then Adama flies Rosalyn
over a flock of flamingos.
:
00:58:32,507 --> 00:58:37,507
We see her looking and then, she dies
rather than listen to Bill ramble on
:
00:58:37,507 --> 00:58:39,657
about that fucking cabin one more time.
:
00:58:40,511 --> 00:58:40,521
Laura: Uh
:
00:58:41,827 --> 00:58:43,627
Xhafer: Guys, humor's
my defense mechanism.
:
00:58:43,627 --> 00:58:45,067
This is big sads, okay?
:
00:58:45,373 --> 00:58:48,313
Laura: big sads He starts crying when he
:
00:58:48,491 --> 00:58:48,811
Xhafer: It's
:
00:58:48,993 --> 00:58:50,613
Laura: that she's gone and I
:
00:58:50,827 --> 00:58:51,417
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:58:52,177 --> 00:58:53,547
This is the saddest moment.
:
00:58:53,647 --> 00:58:57,257
She finally, you know, she passes
as he's talking about building that
:
00:58:57,257 --> 00:58:58,727
cabin together and all that stuff.
:
00:58:58,737 --> 00:58:59,637
It's so sweet.
:
00:58:59,647 --> 00:59:04,097
He holds her hand, he kisses her hand,
he puts his wedding ring on her finger
:
00:59:04,563 --> 00:59:04,923
Laura: Mmhmm
:
00:59:05,664 --> 00:59:08,884
Xhafer: And then he sets down at
the perfect spot to build the cabin.
:
00:59:09,869 --> 00:59:11,839
Laura: Yep Uh
:
00:59:11,874 --> 00:59:13,284
Xhafer: And then the episode ends
:
00:59:14,599 --> 00:59:15,849
Laura: It felt like it should've
:
00:59:15,896 --> 00:59:16,626
Xhafer: It should have.
:
00:59:17,316 --> 00:59:21,386
But it doesn't, because we see a group
of survivors finding places to settle.
:
00:59:21,836 --> 00:59:26,736
We see Gaius and Caprica Six see Helo,
Athena, and Hera talking when Six,
:
00:59:26,736 --> 00:59:30,376
Baltar, and Gracchus tell them that
their lives will be significantly
:
00:59:30,376 --> 00:59:33,046
less eventful, and then they vanish
:
00:59:34,079 --> 00:59:35,789
Laura: Mmhmm Yeah
:
00:59:38,063 --> 00:59:43,700
does say like be a farmer now
I know how to do that And that
:
00:59:43,748 --> 00:59:44,198
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:49,840
Laura: liked that cause we did find
out that the whole Aralon thing was
:
00:59:49,870 --> 00:59:53,790
real and I was like I kinda like this
for him like a return to the earth
:
00:59:54,548 --> 00:59:55,018
Xhafer: Mm-hmm
:
00:59:55,060 --> 00:59:59,820
Laura: Like I am accepting that I'm
no longer the most special boy it
:
00:59:59,820 --> 01:00:06,703
feels like so I didn't I didn't hate
that part but yeah he sees himself
:
01:00:07,663 --> 01:00:10,613
meeting up with Caprica back on Caprica
:
01:00:11,269 --> 01:00:12,550
Xhafer: Угу
:
01:00:13,483 --> 01:00:17,283
Laura: talking about how he can get
her into the mainframe for her l
:
01:00:17,343 --> 01:00:24,213
little curiosity tour I guess but
he's counting on her discretion and he
:
01:00:24,213 --> 01:00:29,974
makes a remark about the things that
we do for love And Caprica's like Love
:
01:00:31,233 --> 01:00:31,803
Xhafer: Ooh.
:
01:00:31,923 --> 01:00:31,943
Yeah
:
01:00:32,204 --> 01:00:36,474
Laura: Love I'm so excited And then
he's like You know you know what I mean
:
01:00:36,484 --> 01:00:44,844
Like You know it's just a phrase kinda
thing I'm just a guy and I wondered if
:
01:00:45,094 --> 01:00:51,094
this scene was telling me that if he
had admitted that this was love that
:
01:00:51,094 --> 01:00:57,014
Caprica wouldn't have done it like
she wouldn't have gone through with it
:
01:00:57,129 --> 01:00:59,519
Xhafer: whole show, all those dead people
:
01:01:00,124 --> 01:01:06,824
Laura: Yeah It kinda seems like at
least this Six woulda backed out know
:
01:01:06,901 --> 01:01:07,431
Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
:
01:01:07,654 --> 01:01:10,954
Laura: all the stuff woulda still
happened but maybe not through
:
01:01:10,954 --> 01:01:12,544
this channel I don't know It
:
01:01:12,732 --> 01:01:13,082
Xhafer: Yeah
:
01:01:13,254 --> 01:01:13,634
Laura: about
:
01:01:14,333 --> 01:01:14,567
Xhafer: see.
:
01:01:14,657 --> 01:01:16,757
Adama talks to Rosalyn at her grave.
:
01:01:17,327 --> 01:01:21,797
The heavenly eastern
sunrise reminds him of her.
:
01:01:22,927 --> 01:01:24,557
He looks over at the hills.
:
01:01:24,597 --> 01:01:30,707
We see this beautiful, beautiful
landscape, and then the episode ends.
:
01:01:31,817 --> 01:01:35,437
And done, nothing else definitely
happens this time, right?
:
01:01:36,170 --> 01:01:38,810
Laura: Is this the last 30
seconds that everybody hates or
:
01:01:39,043 --> 01:01:39,613
Xhafer: Yes.
:
01:01:39,943 --> 01:01:40,283
Yes.
:
01:01:40,293 --> 01:01:41,793
This is, yeah, this little bit here.
:
01:01:42,293 --> 01:01:44,043
Uh, we cut to the present day.
:
01:01:44,496 --> 01:01:48,666
survivor count 6 billion, 700 million.
:
01:01:50,446 --> 01:01:51,936
and hey, Ronald D.
:
01:01:51,936 --> 01:01:52,516
is here
:
01:01:54,537 --> 01:01:58,417
Laura: It's like okay I don't
hate Ronald D being here It's
:
01:01:58,427 --> 01:01:59,647
really funny that they're
:
01:01:59,714 --> 01:02:04,484
Xhafer: people give that out of everything
to give this sequence shit about.
:
01:02:04,804 --> 01:02:05,374
the Ronald D.
:
01:02:05,374 --> 01:02:07,954
Moore cameo is the thing
people seem to latch onto.
:
01:02:08,314 --> 01:02:09,994
I could not give a shit.
:
01:02:10,174 --> 01:02:11,304
That's fun
:
01:02:11,685 --> 01:02:16,175
Laura: Yeah I don't care about the
Ronald E cameo He deserves it He
:
01:02:16,418 --> 01:02:16,838
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
01:02:17,365 --> 01:02:21,875
Laura: And it's not like I
don't know super invasive Like
:
01:02:22,028 --> 01:02:22,428
Xhafer: Yeah
:
01:02:22,445 --> 01:02:25,805
Laura: himself lines He's just
holding the newspaper or whatever
:
01:02:26,524 --> 01:02:28,514
Xhafer: He's not trying to
sneak a SAG card or something
:
01:02:28,564 --> 01:02:29,884
like, "This is fine, guys."
:
01:02:30,325 --> 01:02:34,395
Laura: yeah And you know we got 6BT
and Gracas are the real thing they're
:
01:02:34,395 --> 01:02:36,045
talking over Ronald E's shoulder
:
01:02:36,594 --> 01:02:36,764
Xhafer: Yeah
:
01:02:36,845 --> 01:02:43,805
Laura: Um they aren't really impressed
with how Earth has turned out It's uh
:
01:02:44,985 --> 01:02:52,935
up rather like other Earth Kobol and
Caprica but 6BT believes like Gracas
:
01:02:52,955 --> 01:02:57,355
is pretty cynical but she's believing
that this will be better this time cause
:
01:02:57,410 --> 01:02:57,910
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
01:02:57,975 --> 01:02:58,505
Laura: y you give a
:
01:02:58,530 --> 01:02:59,760
Xhafer: Statistically it might be.
:
01:02:59,965 --> 01:03:00,555
Laura: yeah
:
01:03:01,420 --> 01:03:02,590
Xhafer: Maybe it won't happen again.
:
01:03:03,121 --> 01:03:06,721
Laura: it's all God's plan but
Gracas says it doesn't like that name
:
01:03:08,207 --> 01:03:08,417
Xhafer: Yeah
:
01:03:09,611 --> 01:03:13,711
Laura: then we get some
robot montage to the end of
:
01:03:13,925 --> 01:03:14,255
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
01:03:14,571 --> 01:03:15,291
Laura: robots and
:
01:03:15,575 --> 01:03:16,025
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
01:03:16,181 --> 01:03:16,641
Laura: going on
:
01:03:17,065 --> 01:03:20,345
Xhafer: As Jimi Hendrix's cover of
"All Along the Watchtower" plays,
:
01:03:20,345 --> 01:03:22,055
the most famous version of the song.
:
01:03:22,137 --> 01:03:26,597
Laura: Mmhmm Jafare I'm gonna
suggest one thing to punch up this
:
01:03:26,725 --> 01:03:27,035
Xhafer: Yeah
:
01:03:27,327 --> 01:03:31,357
Laura: Just really punch it up
Have you been seeing this footage
:
01:03:31,407 --> 01:03:33,797
of the robot Olympics from China
:
01:03:35,937 --> 01:03:38,047
Xhafer: All the robots
falling over and stuff.
:
01:03:38,561 --> 01:03:41,501
Laura: All the robots falling over
I think that that would just be
:
01:03:41,501 --> 01:03:45,871
a real real chef's kiss on this
:
01:03:46,737 --> 01:03:48,647
Xhafer: Just all the
robots messing up, yeah.
:
01:03:51,007 --> 01:03:55,027
People tricking GPT with how many
Rs are in strawberry and stuff.
:
01:03:55,395 --> 01:03:56,035
Laura: Mmhmm
:
01:03:58,895 --> 01:04:00,495
Yeah And that's it
:
01:04:01,195 --> 01:04:05,235
Xhafer: that's the actual end of the show.
:
01:04:06,855 --> 01:04:07,625
Now
:
01:04:08,376 --> 01:04:08,596
Laura: Mmhmm
:
01:04:08,675 --> 01:04:10,055
Xhafer: we can talk
about whatever you want.
:
01:04:10,625 --> 01:04:15,255
We do have an episode set aside next
week to talk about our thoughts and
:
01:04:15,255 --> 01:04:16,865
feelings of the series in general
:
01:04:17,558 --> 01:04:21,328
So we can, you can save it for next week.
:
01:04:22,638 --> 01:04:24,238
You can talk about it now.
:
01:04:24,278 --> 01:04:24,878
If we just wanna…
:
01:04:24,988 --> 01:04:26,368
Do you wanna rate this episode?
:
01:04:26,468 --> 01:04:28,758
We should probably start there,
'cause that's the thing that we do
:
01:04:28,904 --> 01:04:36,534
Laura: Here's what I propose We rate this
episode talk about two things next episode
:
01:04:36,884 --> 01:04:44,684
I would love if you have some like recap
of like Remember this thing it didn't pan
:
01:04:44,684 --> 01:04:47,534
out or remember when you said this thing
:
01:04:48,130 --> 01:04:50,950
Xhafer: I would have to listen
to our entire podcast in,
:
01:04:50,950 --> 01:04:52,600
like, three days to do that.
:
01:04:52,684 --> 01:04:52,984
Laura: if you
:
01:04:53,060 --> 01:04:53,470
Xhafer: I,
:
01:04:53,494 --> 01:04:54,224
Laura: handy
:
01:04:54,310 --> 01:04:55,590
Xhafer: I don't, no.
:
01:04:55,904 --> 01:04:56,954
Laura: about something,
:
01:04:57,184 --> 01:05:00,444
Xhafer: I mean, Laura, I do
have to tell you something.
:
01:05:00,943 --> 01:05:01,473
Laura: Okay.
:
01:05:02,014 --> 01:05:04,064
Xhafer: You're already in spoiler town.
:
01:05:05,317 --> 01:05:06,147
Laura: Oh, somebody
:
01:05:06,254 --> 01:05:07,844
Xhafer: did it 30 minutes ago.
:
01:05:08,194 --> 01:05:10,884
Aaron, drop a little
Watchmen Ozymandias for me.
:
01:05:15,299 --> 01:05:16,038
Laura: Okay
:
01:05:16,426 --> 01:05:20,546
Xhafer: so maybe we can ask Spoiler
Town if there's stuff they wanna call
:
01:05:20,546 --> 01:05:22,496
out to talk about in the recap episode.
:
01:05:22,626 --> 01:05:23,356
We should do that.
:
01:05:23,826 --> 01:05:27,056
Why don't you do that actually as
your first post in Spoiler Town?
:
01:05:27,694 --> 01:05:28,574
Laura: sounds good.
:
01:05:28,716 --> 01:05:30,216
Xhafer: Uh, ask them to link stuff.
:
01:05:30,376 --> 01:05:36,088
I might have pinned things Uh, Okay, I've
got a couple pins in here that are…
:
01:05:36,298 --> 01:05:39,898
there's a lot more in here, but
I've got two pins that I just saw
:
01:05:39,918 --> 01:05:42,838
that I haven't thought about in two
years that are gonna be perfect.
:
01:05:42,907 --> 01:05:43,747
Laura: Those will be useful.
:
01:05:43,747 --> 01:05:44,047
Okay.
:
01:05:44,087 --> 01:05:44,297
That's,
:
01:05:44,438 --> 01:05:45,108
Xhafer: okay, so,
:
01:05:45,187 --> 01:05:45,637
Laura: I want
:
01:05:46,088 --> 01:05:46,438
Xhafer: okay.
:
01:05:46,627 --> 01:05:47,207
Laura: episode,
:
01:05:47,338 --> 01:05:49,598
Xhafer: And then I also have,
we did r- I did a recording with
:
01:05:49,598 --> 01:05:51,408
Kristen, I did a recording with Bob,
:
01:05:51,867 --> 01:05:52,197
Laura: Mm-hmm.
:
01:05:52,238 --> 01:05:53,188
Xhafer: a recording with Ryan.
:
01:05:53,188 --> 01:05:56,438
Ryan and I talked about the finale
and the show for 30 minutes.
:
01:05:56,657 --> 01:05:56,957
Laura: Yeah.
:
01:05:56,958 --> 01:06:00,568
Xhafer: know how much of that's gonna
end up in the recap episode, but, uh,
:
01:06:00,568 --> 01:06:04,218
there's 30 minutes of us talking about
the end of this show on there as well.
:
01:06:04,238 --> 01:06:05,738
So there's, we'll have things.
:
01:06:06,138 --> 01:06:07,848
so let's talk about the two
things you wanna talk about.
:
01:06:08,313 --> 01:06:08,683
Laura: Yeah,
:
01:06:08,818 --> 01:06:09,718
Xhafer: rate the episode first?
:
01:06:09,793 --> 01:06:11,153
Laura: I wanna rate the episode,
:
01:06:11,228 --> 01:06:12,478
Xhafer: Okay, let's rate this episode
:
01:06:12,833 --> 01:06:14,813
Laura: man, I hate to do this
:
01:06:15,260 --> 01:06:17,690
Xhafer: On a scale of one to 13 colonies
:
01:06:17,853 --> 01:06:18,173
Laura: really,
:
01:06:18,190 --> 01:06:19,110
Xhafer: the last time.
:
01:06:19,223 --> 01:06:20,103
Laura: a 13.
:
01:06:20,133 --> 01:06:20,873
I did.
:
01:06:21,020 --> 01:06:21,910
Xhafer: Yeah, it's not
:
01:06:22,593 --> 01:06:24,443
Laura: it's just not because…
:
01:06:24,583 --> 01:06:28,033
A- and I, I get the feeling I probably
don't hate it as much as other
:
01:06:28,033 --> 01:06:30,453
people hated it 'cause I have the
:
01:06:30,586 --> 01:06:35,766
Xhafer: I do think it holds up a lot
better in streaming consecutive weeks
:
01:06:35,866 --> 01:06:38,946
world than it does with all the breaks.
:
01:06:39,396 --> 01:06:44,736
And I think a big chunk of
that is you don't have time.
:
01:06:45,446 --> 01:06:48,736
Like, by the virtue of watching
it every week, you don't have a
:
01:06:48,736 --> 01:06:51,796
year and a half between seasons
to sit there and think about all
:
01:06:51,806 --> 01:06:53,566
the plot holes and all that stuff.
:
01:06:54,046 --> 01:06:56,136
I think the show benefits there.
:
01:06:56,456 --> 01:07:00,176
And then I think the show benefits from
being able to, like, connect the dots
:
01:07:00,176 --> 01:07:02,476
easier because everything is fresh.
:
01:07:02,876 --> 01:07:05,646
So I think it ha- I think it works
both ways in the show's favor
:
01:07:06,103 --> 01:07:09,160
Laura: Yeah not a 13.
:
01:07:09,250 --> 01:07:09,779
I, I'll
:
01:07:09,923 --> 01:07:10,193
Xhafer: No.
:
01:07:10,300 --> 01:07:13,230
Laura: a nine, 'cause I did
probably like it better than a
:
01:07:13,230 --> 01:07:14,770
lot of other people liked it.
:
01:07:15,943 --> 01:07:16,373
Xhafer: Yeah
:
01:07:16,670 --> 01:07:22,220
Laura: most distracting thing for
me resolving the colony and Cavill,
:
01:07:22,580 --> 01:07:24,690
'cause it really felt like…
:
01:07:24,730 --> 01:07:28,350
Maybe if I go back and read Gaius'
speech, 'cause, you know, sometimes
:
01:07:28,350 --> 01:07:30,120
when everything is happening very fast,
:
01:07:30,299 --> 01:07:30,839
Xhafer: N-no.
:
01:07:30,930 --> 01:07:35,100
Laura: subtitles on, I don't,
like, absorb the content.
:
01:07:35,679 --> 01:07:37,149
Xhafer: It's, it's self-aggrandizing.
:
01:07:37,159 --> 01:07:38,129
It serves no purpose.
:
01:07:38,149 --> 01:07:39,029
I-- No.
:
01:07:39,390 --> 01:07:42,650
Laura: it just didn't
feel like anything to me,
:
01:07:42,700 --> 01:07:43,029
Xhafer: Yeah
:
01:07:43,130 --> 01:07:45,950
Laura: was very sad.
:
01:07:46,020 --> 01:07:51,279
And if they were, trying to redeem
Gaius' character for me, like, in a, in
:
01:07:51,279 --> 01:07:54,220
a sort of, grandiose way, they didn't.
:
01:07:54,260 --> 01:07:58,930
The, the most redeeming thing to me at the
end was him going, "Well, I'm a farmer.
:
01:07:59,000 --> 01:07:59,920
I know how to farm.
:
01:08:00,440 --> 01:08:00,779
Xhafer: Yeah
:
01:08:00,810 --> 01:08:01,510
Laura: can do this."
:
01:08:01,779 --> 01:08:03,890
And, and even that was
just kinda like, eh.
:
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:08,050
He did, like, set himself up as
a leader with this whole group,
:
01:08:08,050 --> 01:08:09,110
and then run away from that.
:
01:08:10,236 --> 01:08:10,706
Xhafer: Yeah
:
01:08:11,650 --> 01:08:14,800
Laura: It's very on brand, but
he wasn't really redeemed for
:
01:08:14,800 --> 01:08:16,810
me, if they were aiming for that.
:
01:08:17,529 --> 01:08:21,319
And his speech certainly didn't
fucking do that to me, and
:
01:08:21,319 --> 01:08:22,830
Cavill was out of character.
:
01:08:23,029 --> 01:08:28,080
Like, for me, what reduces this rating,
like, if you started with 13 points and
:
01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:30,210
then you, lose them throughout, you know,
:
01:08:30,304 --> 01:08:30,584
Xhafer: Yeah
:
01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:33,800
Laura: things, it's that whole thing.
:
01:08:34,460 --> 01:08:39,224
don't hate the thing with Tyrell snapping
Tory's neck and then, oops, that's the
:
01:08:39,469 --> 01:08:39,788
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
01:08:40,203 --> 01:08:45,264
Laura: breaker, but we also didn't
acknowledge that supposedly they had
:
01:08:45,264 --> 01:08:48,254
a big, long history with each other
that they don't know anything about.
:
01:08:48,264 --> 01:08:50,174
They've never tried to explore it together
:
01:08:50,849 --> 01:08:51,299
Xhafer: Mhm.
:
01:08:51,354 --> 01:08:53,283
Laura: "Oh my God, can you
believe we were married?"
:
01:08:53,344 --> 01:08:55,104
Like, "Do you remember anything?
:
01:08:55,124 --> 01:08:56,274
Do you remember anything?"
:
01:08:56,464 --> 01:08:58,134
They don't, talk about it ever.
:
01:08:59,033 --> 01:09:01,964
That resolution wasn't satisfying,
and it felt like they were trying
:
01:09:01,964 --> 01:09:05,203
to paper over that real quick
with like, "Ah, it's Earth.
:
01:09:05,234 --> 01:09:06,064
Oh, we're…
:
01:09:06,374 --> 01:09:07,834
These are our ancestors."
:
01:09:08,474 --> 01:09:08,924
I don't know.
:
01:09:09,224 --> 01:09:09,504
It was just
:
01:09:10,234 --> 01:09:12,260
Xhafer: Yeah No, that's fair.
:
01:09:12,300 --> 01:09:17,840
Um, I mean, I'm gonna go ahead
and say, yeah, I'll do nine.
:
01:09:19,229 --> 01:09:20,750
There's some really good stuff in here.
:
01:09:20,859 --> 01:09:23,600
The scenes where they're doing the
planning and cutting between all the
:
01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:27,520
characters and all that, I have said it,
like, four times now, I love those scenes.
:
01:09:28,180 --> 01:09:29,920
That's the highlight
of this episode for me.
:
01:09:30,029 --> 01:09:30,479
Laura: The
:
01:09:30,956 --> 01:09:31,475
Xhafer: the end-
:
01:09:31,540 --> 01:09:32,080
Laura: dad
:
01:09:32,216 --> 01:09:33,556
Xhafer: ending with Mom and Dad.
:
01:09:34,086 --> 01:09:35,926
I like Starbuck just ghosting.
:
01:09:36,319 --> 01:09:36,590
Laura: Yeah.
:
01:09:36,779 --> 01:09:37,279
I do like
:
01:09:37,734 --> 01:09:40,964
Xhafer: I know that's, like, a thing
that's drived and people, like, the
:
01:09:40,964 --> 01:09:43,564
fandom, the number one question the
fandom have is what was going on with
:
01:09:43,564 --> 01:09:46,993
Starbuck, which is absurd to me because
Starbuck is clearly just a fucking angel.
:
01:09:47,214 --> 01:09:49,234
They tell it, they beat you
over the fucking head with it.
:
01:09:49,234 --> 01:09:50,714
She's got a fucking wing tattoo.
:
01:09:51,033 --> 01:09:55,964
We see other angels that are, like, the
Six BT and Gracchus are fucking angels.
:
01:09:56,074 --> 01:09:57,274
They say that all the time.
:
01:09:57,434 --> 01:10:01,294
We have no reason to doubt that and
them being angels, their divinity
:
01:10:01,294 --> 01:10:03,304
is nigh proven by the epilogue.
:
01:10:03,724 --> 01:10:07,284
If, if that epilogue does nothing else,
it proves that, yes, these are angels,
:
01:10:07,777 --> 01:10:08,147
Laura: Mm-hmm.
:
01:10:08,204 --> 01:10:12,654
, Xhafer: And they exist independent of
the minds of, , Caprica Six and Gaius.
:
01:10:13,067 --> 01:10:13,427
Laura: Yeah
:
01:10:13,524 --> 01:10:17,304
Xhafer: So knowing that they disappear
in the same way Starbuck does.
:
01:10:17,314 --> 01:10:20,524
Starbuck says she's a fucking
angel, she gets told she's an angel.
:
01:10:20,804 --> 01:10:23,924
In all the flashbacks they bring up
every time they mention she's an angel.
:
01:10:23,924 --> 01:10:24,693
She's a fucking angel.
:
01:10:24,954 --> 01:10:27,794
I don't understand why this is a
question for people, why they refuse
:
01:10:27,794 --> 01:10:28,934
to accept that she's an angel.
:
01:10:28,934 --> 01:10:29,824
She's a fucking angel.
:
01:10:29,834 --> 01:10:30,454
Deal with it.
:
01:10:30,854 --> 01:10:33,834
Um, it doesn't have to work perfect.
:
01:10:33,864 --> 01:10:34,674
She's an angel
:
01:10:34,982 --> 01:10:37,672
Laura: Can she, So here's the other thing.
:
01:10:38,272 --> 01:10:44,902
I did say a couple of times in person
and on this podcast that if the Daniel
:
01:10:44,902 --> 01:10:47,692
shit wasn't resolved, I was gonna be mad,
:
01:10:48,190 --> 01:10:48,420
Xhafer: Yep.
:
01:10:48,512 --> 01:10:49,202
Laura: I am
:
01:10:49,780 --> 01:10:50,260
Xhafer: Mad.
:
01:10:50,940 --> 01:10:51,340
Yep.
:
01:10:53,872 --> 01:10:58,222
Laura: I wanna still believe
that Daniel was her dad, and
:
01:10:58,320 --> 01:10:59,230
Xhafer: is, it, it's one of the
:
01:10:59,742 --> 01:11:02,672
Laura: an Angel is because
she is the first Hera, but we
:
01:11:02,672 --> 01:11:04,842
don't know that she was Hera
:
01:11:05,395 --> 01:11:09,285
Xhafer: That's entirely possible,
except for the fact that this fan
:
01:11:09,285 --> 01:11:11,095
theory has been squashed by Ron.
:
01:11:11,695 --> 01:11:14,255
Ronald D has said this,
that fan theory is not true
:
01:11:14,710 --> 01:11:16,059
Laura: Ron, how dare?
:
01:11:16,701 --> 01:11:19,681
Xhafer: For someone who's all like,
"Starbuck might be an angel, guys.
:
01:11:19,681 --> 01:11:22,691
We don't really know, like, ooh,
what's going on with Starbuck?"
:
01:11:22,771 --> 01:11:26,061
And then to be all like, "Yeah,
but Daniel's not secretly her dad.
:
01:11:26,196 --> 01:11:27,516
Laura: But it's definitely not that.
:
01:11:27,596 --> 01:11:28,076
Yeah
:
01:11:28,211 --> 01:11:30,381
Xhafer: definitely not this
thing that we didn't think of."
:
01:11:32,124 --> 01:11:33,234
Laura: Ronald E.,
:
01:11:33,264 --> 01:11:34,164
come on.
:
01:11:35,274 --> 01:11:36,224
Come on.
:
01:11:37,061 --> 01:11:37,441
Xhafer: I know.
:
01:11:37,774 --> 01:11:41,294
Laura: You clearly, like, love the
mystery of it, so why don't you just
:
01:11:41,294 --> 01:11:42,954
let people have their fucking mystery?
:
01:11:43,281 --> 01:11:43,751
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
01:11:44,061 --> 01:11:45,431
Just don't give us an answer.
:
01:11:46,164 --> 01:11:46,684
Laura: Yeah.
:
01:11:46,684 --> 01:11:48,214
Xhafer: Commit to giving us less answers.
:
01:11:48,554 --> 01:11:49,184
100%.
:
01:11:49,742 --> 01:11:50,222
Laura: Mm-hmm.
:
01:11:50,609 --> 01:11:51,419
Okay.
:
01:11:51,629 --> 01:11:58,169
Well, the whole super secret 13 Cylon
Daniel business, like, why did you even,
:
01:11:58,924 --> 01:11:59,464
Xhafer: bother
:
01:11:59,949 --> 01:12:00,839
Laura: Yeah.
:
01:12:01,024 --> 01:12:05,324
Xhafer: they messed up by making
Sharon an eight instead of a seven
:
01:12:05,443 --> 01:12:06,674
because they were bad at math.
:
01:12:06,817 --> 01:12:07,037
Laura: But
:
01:12:07,047 --> 01:12:07,317
they
:
01:12:07,584 --> 01:12:08,124
Xhafer: That's it.
:
01:12:08,554 --> 01:12:09,174
That's the whole reason
:
01:12:09,177 --> 01:12:12,277
Laura: laziest, way to just be like,
"Oh yeah, there was that one that
:
01:12:12,327 --> 01:12:14,837
Cavill killed him, killed his, line.
:
01:12:14,847 --> 01:12:15,577
Ha ha."
:
01:12:16,487 --> 01:12:16,997
And then
:
01:12:17,154 --> 01:12:17,514
Xhafer: Mm-hmm.
:
01:12:18,473 --> 01:12:21,973
Laura: mention it or, or even just,
like, let people have their mystery.
:
01:12:22,003 --> 01:12:24,163
Like, what the fuck?
:
01:12:24,641 --> 01:12:24,931
Xhafer: Yeah
:
01:12:26,113 --> 01:12:26,623
Laura: Okay
:
01:12:27,375 --> 01:12:27,735
Xhafer: Yep.
:
01:12:27,752 --> 01:12:28,202
Laura: All right.
:
01:12:31,164 --> 01:12:32,244
Xhafer: There was a plan, I promise.
:
01:12:33,242 --> 01:12:33,602
All right.
:
01:12:33,662 --> 01:12:35,472
Uh, was that the two things
you wanted to talk about?
:
01:12:35,476 --> 01:12:36,486
Laura: I, just wanted to acknowledge
:
01:12:36,612 --> 01:12:36,972
Xhafer: Okay.
:
01:12:36,996 --> 01:12:39,416
Laura: because I had said
it, that I was gonna be mad,
:
01:12:39,416 --> 01:12:39,716
Xhafer: Yeah
:
01:12:39,741 --> 01:12:40,351
Laura: I am mad.
:
01:12:40,651 --> 01:12:42,521
You can rest assured
:
01:12:42,765 --> 01:12:47,065
Xhafer: Well, we've got a whole lot
more to talk about in terms of plot
:
01:12:47,065 --> 01:12:50,385
threads and things that we'll be picking
up next week in our recap episode.
:
01:12:50,875 --> 01:12:52,995
But before we get there, we of
course have to say thank you to
:
01:12:52,995 --> 01:12:55,705
Jeremy, jeremysegal42.bandcamp.com,

Thanks so much for putting that
together for us all those years ago.
:
01:13:01,945 --> 01:13:02,975
We really appreciate it
:
01:13:03,233 --> 01:13:03,943
Laura: Yeah.

01:13:04,043 --> 01:13:07,383
And thanks to Angry Duck Time Machine
on Instagram for the podcast artwork.

:
01:13:10,026 --> 01:13:11,166
sure it gets released on time.
:
01:13:11,166 --> 01:13:12,406
We appreciate all the work you do
:
01:13:12,662 --> 01:13:17,152
Laura: And listeners, if you have
anything else to say about "Battlestar
:
01:13:17,152 --> 01:13:18,912
Galactica," you can do it in the Discord.
:
01:13:19,022 --> 01:13:19,812
Xhafer: It's, too late.
:
01:13:19,832 --> 01:13:22,532
By the time you're hearing
this, it will be too late to get
:
01:13:22,532 --> 01:13:24,092
something in for the recap episode.
:
01:13:24,213 --> 01:13:26,113
Laura: come into Discord
and remind us years
:
01:13:26,402 --> 01:13:27,342
Xhafer: you can still come hang out
:
01:13:29,576 --> 01:13:34,006
, I, I, we got an email, a couple of days
ago actually from someone who had sent one
:
01:13:34,006 --> 01:13:39,286
in that I had kind of skirted the question
because I didn't wanna do spoilies asking
:
01:13:39,286 --> 01:13:40,916
if we would go back and answer it now.
:
01:13:41,206 --> 01:13:41,616
So,
:
01:13:42,137 --> 01:13:42,437
Laura: So,
:
01:13:42,656 --> 01:13:42,976
Xhafer: Mr.
:
01:13:42,976 --> 01:13:44,676
Beast's dad emailed us back
:
01:13:44,717 --> 01:13:45,817
Laura: glad to hear from Mr.
:
01:13:45,817 --> 01:13:46,797
Beast's dad.
:
01:13:46,967 --> 01:13:47,297
Xhafer: Yeah.
:
01:13:47,627 --> 01:13:50,107
So that we'll save that
for the recap episode.
:
01:13:50,417 --> 01:13:52,375
And then, uh, anything else?
:
01:13:52,375 --> 01:13:54,585
Uh, I mean, if you're, if you're
hearing this, you already asked in
:
01:13:54,585 --> 01:13:57,055
spoiler town, so there's your chance.
:
01:13:57,462 --> 01:13:58,192
All right.
:
01:13:58,383 --> 01:13:59,723
we'll see you next week, internet
:
01:14:00,378 --> 01:14:00,968
Laura: Bye
