::::: Looks great so far. Glad to have another inmate to run the asylum. (It really is a free for all here, and just about everything is fair game to those who care to seize the edits.) --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 03:25, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

::::::Great job! Sorry, I did often jump in to doing these, but I was ill all this weekend--and I didn't want to "bogart" the episode guides and let someone else take a stab. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 01:59, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
== 35 Ships ==
I find it hard to believe that Gaeta's quote, 10 ships out of 35 is in reference to the entire fleet. That means half the fleets ships are gone, which doesn't jive with the number of people still alive OR onscreen destructions. If I'm not mistaken we've seen less than 10 ships destroyed on screen (Pixis, the Rising Star and 2-3 others, I think there were 3 lost in The Passage).
Since Gaeta doesn't definitively say anything that would indicate that 35 ships is nothing more than a statistic of some kind, and not necessarily the entire fleet, I'm going to remove that note from the Analysis section unless someone objects.[[User:RUSnooky|RUSnooky]] 04:05, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
:I always assumed a number of ships did not make it off of the surface of new caprica, and this was the reason people were living in the galactica's starboard hangar deck. If this is the case, 35 doesn't seem too few.{{unsigned|Dogspunk}}
== No New Quorum? ==
An interesting statement by RDM in the podcast for this ep:
"And the end of the Quorum. Really just- I mean, now we're really moving into the endgames of the- endgame of the entire series. I mean- we began the series without a Quorum and we're ending the series without a Quorum. " Not sure if that's definitive or not, but maybe worth noting? --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 23:08, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
== Zarek's Joke ==
As Tom Zarek is escorted from the flight deck, we hear the ending of a joke that he is telling to Racetrack:
" . . . shall we save the kids? And the attorney says, 'Frak them'. And the priest says, 'Do we have time?' "
After both laugh, Racetrack says, "You're gross."

* Since you've linked this section of the talk page in both "[[Blood on the Scales]]" and the "[[Religion of the Twelve Colonies (RDM)]]" articles, this should go in the "Noteworthy Quotes" section of the article, really. It's typically not a good idea to link to talk pages, since they can be archived and thus the links invalidated. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 21:09, 16 July 2011 (EDT)
*Done, and thanks for the tip. I wanted you to know that I struggled with NPOV on this one. I am not trying to condemn the Church or disparage the seriousness of allegations against it, or spark a debate here; this is a tragic and complicated issue. I just though it interesting to note the similarity between Colonial culture and ours. I first considered the joke an anachronism, but as I was writing up the Note, I decided that any large organization (religious, military, government) would have at least a few bad apples and that Colonial culture (like ours) might put other members under a cloud of suspicion because of the actions of a few. -- [[User:Dogger55|Dogger55]] 07:55, 17 July 2011 (EDT)
