Duck's wife?

LT, thanks for creating an article on Nora. However, I am not so sure about your assumption that she's not only Tucker's friend, but also his wife. I checked the transcript of the first webisode several times, but I wasn't able to find a line or gesture from which we could infer that they are already married. Perhaps you can clarify this. --Pedda 23:00, 6 September 2006 (CDT)

By the second, it is certainly strongly implied they're... "special friends" at least. Tyrol's language clearly suggests marriage, based on parallel structure. --CalculatinAvatar^(C-T) 23:34, 6 September 2006 (CDT)

Could you be more specific, please? --Pedda 23:57, 6 September 2006 (CDT)

Watch the second one; if you live in not-the-USA, read Battlestar Galactica: The Resistance#Episode 2. Duck is not joining the resistance on New Caprica because of his plans for a child with Nora. Tyrol's comment "I have a wife" (possibly slight paraphrase) implies by parallel that Duck and Nora are married. --CalculatinAvatar^(C-T) 00:01, 7 September 2006 (CDT)

I just watched the second webisode. Frankly, I still don't agree with you. If Tucker and Nora were married, Galen would have said something like "I have a wife, too, (and even a kid)." My interpretation of his remarks is as follows: "Nora's just his girlfriend, and their kid is still in the planning stage. I even have a wife and a kid, and I'm a leader of the resistance. Hence, Tucker can't reasonably refuse on the grounds of other responsibilities!" --Pedda 01:41, 7 September 2006 (CDT)

After watching the webisode, I found the comments ambiguous. There was nothing for or against the belief Nora and Tucker were married. People can interpret either way, so I would avoid assuming that they are married and just note that they are in a romantic relationship. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate} 07:09, 7 September 2006 (CDT)
