I hadn't realised that Liam was short for William either, All in all a good episode, seemed a little rushed though, the episode ended and i was thinking "But wait, there is more to tell in this ep" not as good as the past couple. but still pretty fraking good
[QUOTE=Vorlons in my Head;179765]Good to see Baltar back to his old tricks. That was funny with him trying to hold the rifle and the clip falling out.[/QUOTE]
I love whenever Six throws him for a loop, and he thinks about it, and just shrugs and does what she says anyway.

This whole episode was hilarious (except, obviously, for the really sad parts). Ellen asking for the flask, and everyone looking embarrassed when Bill is the one who has one on him, Hot Dog's line when Ellen got off the Raptor, Saul's "Great-granddaddy was a power sander," Galen's "Can we talk about the baby later?"
It's interesting to see the blended ship. The combined CAP, and the cylon maintenance workers were one thing, but I was surprised when they started putting up photos of their friends who had died on the memorial wall.
What's interesting about those photos is they're supposed to be from after the alliance was created.
I didn't know that many Cylons had died since then.

This episode had its moments, but it wont go down as a favourite. It was however a necessary stepping stone to the big boom at the end, and thats enough for me
Yeah this episode did feel a bit off pace to me with some scenes a bit choppy. Good to see Baltar back though and finally 6 as well. Best bit for me was Saul speaking to Adama:

Well, you've got Natalie, you've got both the Eights from "Face of the Enemy," the Cylon engineer of an unknown model killed in the tylium ship mutiny in "A Disquiet Follows My Soul," anyone who was killed when Narcho's missile missed the president and hit the baseship, and everyone killed at the Battle of the Resurrection Hub. And Roslin was assuming it was from the beginning of the alliance. All the cylons killed in Cavil's initial ambush of the rebels are permanently dead, as well.
I rewatched the episode today with a friend who missed it, and it broke my heart all over again when I realized the significance of something else that passed me by until I saw the writer mention it in an interview. Cylon pregnancy requires love. Six had her first pain with Liam when Ellen and Saul were, um, catching up in the wardroom. And then Liam died right after Ellen offered to give up Saul, and leave him and Six and Liam together, untroubled by her on [i]Galactica[/i], at the very moment he looked at her with forgiveness in his heart, loving her for sacrificing her own love for him. And Saul caught it, immediately apologizing and saying that it was his fault and trying to take it back.
And to think, before I realized that, I mused about how the world may be better if love was required for conception.
That whole episode is pretty fantastic Worf. That is actually Ron Moore's voice there at the end, he also got Joss Wheadon to do a part in it. It was the season 4 premier if I recall.

IIRC Wheadon and Moore end up shooting at each other at one point.

I did not notice, the first time I watched it, that the Bear McCreary/Kara's Father standin disappeared when Tigh walked up to the piano. That almost surprises me more than the Boomer/Hera action.
She had the help of the show itself in her deception. C'mon, that bit a couple weeks ago, where she asks Ellen rhetorically "Who could I possibly want to love?" followed by a cut to Tyrol... that was pretty blatant foreshadowing. Actually made me groan a little with its uncharacteristic lack of subtlety. Well, I guess there was a good reason for that, now wasn't there?

FRAG!!!
She's ugly, boring, bad acting, selfish cunt who should be fraggin' airlocked until he stopped coming back.
Bill and Tigh's embrace, mourning the death of Liam, was my favorite moment.
