Speculation on Battlestar Galactica (RDM)
Plausible Speculation
- It appears that, in season 3, everything that's happened to Baltar since his election has served (from a dramatic or storytelling perspective) to strip away his arrogance. Particularly the suicide attempt provoked by internal Six in Taking a Break From All Your Worries. -- 21:08, 30 January 2007 (CST)
- In Exodus, Part I it was mentioned that the Cylons are stretching their resources thin. I suspect that the Cylons are at either in a civil war (likely between the earlier and later models, although possibly between two divergent branches) or at war with some other civilization. I suspect that they destroyed the Twelve Colonies because they were paranoid about the possibility of fighting a war on two fronts. -- 21:56, 30 January 2007 (CST)
- The five priests of the One Whose Name Cannot be Spoken aren't the final five, but they may have been the previous cycle's equivalent of Cylons. -- 00:43, 1 February 2007 (CST)
- Apparently four of the final five will be revealed in the season finale. If Baltar is a Cylon, I strongly suspect that he will be convicted, executed and then wake up in a Cylon rebirthing tank surrounded by three other Cylon models. -- 02:00, 5 February 2007 (CST)
Wild Speculation
- If Baltar is not one of the Final Five then he's half-Cylon like Hera, which would push the origin of humanoid Cylons back by 2 or 3 decades. -- 00:43, 1 February 2007 (CST)
- If the Cylons have an equivalent of the Imperious Leader, it is probably a network of Hybrids and similar Cylon supercomputers, however most short-term decisions are delegated to the humanoid models. -- 02:07, 6 February 2007 (CST)
- Baltar died in the nuclear blast on Caprica, got resurrected and subconsciously blocked out the memories which contradicted his cover identity. -- 01:38, 28 February 2007 (CST)
