Analysis

Questions

  • Is Number Three honest in her claim that there are only four of the Final Five in the Fleet? If so, where is the fifth and last Cylon? If she's lying, is it because she still harbors distrust for her compatriots and the humans?
  • What of the other Twos, Fours, and Fives?
  • What happened to Earth?
  • Will the other Cylons find the Fleet and the rebels, as well as Earth? If so, will they finish what they started?
