* | * * [[w:Here_be_dragons|Here Be Dragons]] is a phrase used to denote unexplored or dangerous territories derived from the medieval practice of putting sea serpents and other mythological creatures in blank areas of maps. The most literal correspondence between the title and the episode content would be the inhospitable jungle created by [[Zoe Graystone]] and [[Tamara Adama]] (unexplored) and the dragon conjured there by Zoe (dangerous) to attack Amanda in the teaser. | ||

*The episode contains two indications that Evelyn is the future mother of Admiral [[William Adama]]. First, she enjoys model shipmaking, as her son is seen doing in several episodes of ''[[Battlestar Galactica (TRS)|Battlestar Galactica]]''. Second, she mentions a brother on Tauron who uses hunting dogs to drive foxes into the water; this is the uncle that William mentions in "[[Sometimes a Great Notion]]". | *The episode contains two indications that Evelyn is the future mother of Admiral [[William Adama]].

*Zoe-A's brief return to the body of the U-87 prototype is the first Cylon [[Resurrection (RDM)|resurrection]] to occur in the Twelve Colonies. Like the [[humanoid Cylons]] decades later, massive damage to her physical body caused her consciousness to upload completely to a larger computer network; for Zoe, this was V-World, rather than a [[Resurrection Ship]] or the [[Resurrection Hub]]. She is capable of downloading only to a body specifically designed for her, but unlike the humanoid Cylons who would have many genetically equivalent biological bodies available at any time, Zoe is obliged to wait until the unique U-87 prototype body was sufficiently repaired to hold her once again. However, Zoe is able to download into that body at will, whereas downloading for humanoid Cylons would be more akin to a reflex response out of the individual's control. | *Zoe-A's brief return to the body of the U-87 prototype is the first Cylon [[Resurrection (RDM)|resurrection]] to occur in the Twelve Colonies.

*Will Zoe-A continue to associate with Tamara-A in New Cap City, or anywhere else in V-World? | *Will Zoe-A continue to associate with Tamara-A in New Cap City, or anywhere else in V-World? | ||
* Why were sailing ships (such as those discussed by Evelyn and Willie) built and used ''after'' space travel had been developed to migrate from [[Kobol (RDM)|Kobol]] to [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]]? | |||
**Spaceships were probably less efficient and more expensive means of transportation between two points on the ''same'' planet. For similar reasons, ocean vessels are used far more often than aircraft for international trade on modern-day Earth. | |||
