	RDM: Yeah, now it's safe. Here's— I like this little bit of business with Baltar's body coming back in a body bag, which I believe was— if I'm not mistaken— was something they made up on the set. [[Michael Rymer]] and [[James Callis\|James]] came up with this whole thing about hiding him in the body bag, and I heard about this afterward, in fact, I got a call from the studio, from [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1740807/ Todd Sharp]<!-- best IMDB match I could come up with-->, who's the head of production at [http://www.universalstudios.com Universal], (laughs) called me <!-- 36:00 -->and said "Are you aware that Baltar comes back to the ''[[Galactica (RDM)\|Galactica]]'' in a body bag?" And I said "Yeah! Yeah! Yeah, that was a co— Yeah. Yeah, we talked about that, it was a complicated decision. And we'll talk about that more later.", and then I hung up on him. "Baltar comes back— what the fuck are they doing down on the set!?" And then I called Rymer, and "WHAT?!?", and he said— he explained it to me, and I said "Oh. Well that's smart." (laughs) Sometimes you just have to let— you have to be— you have to be willing to let them be smart, because they come up with some <!-- 36:30 --> really nice stuff, and that was a really nice way of getting Baltar back aboard ''Galactica'' without having to play a whole big thing of hoopla, of bringing him back in chains or something.

	I like this little bit of the couples reuniting with their spouses and not with each other, and yet still having the look toward each other, which tells us that none of this is really resolved but all of them have gone through quite an extraordinary set of circumstances. Why— again, we had dramatically— <!-- 37:00 -->y'know you left the story of [[Sharon Agathon\|Sharon]] and [[Hera]] and [[Caprica-Six]] leaving the [[Basestar (RDM)\|baseship]] quite a while ago, why are they arriving at ''Galactica'' right now? It's because this is the point we want all these people arriving in the [[hangar deck]]. And I think you have to accept that the audience will not ask that question, unless they're listening to the podcast.
