Summary
Act 1
Act 2
Act 3
Act 4
Notes
- A Picon delegate is to be cast[2], suggesting an appearance of the Quorum of Twelve, or at least part of it.
- Like "He That Believeth In Me" and "Valley of Darkness", this episode's title is derived from Christian traditions; Blessed Be the Tie that Binds is a Protestant hymn celebrating the unity that comes from love.
- According to Michael Taylor, in this episode "we say goodbye to another longtime character, though who that is and the manner of his or her departure should come as a surprise."[1] This character is not Laura Roslin, given that she is still alive in the episode "Faith".
- The script was being written while "Razor" was still in pre-production.[1]
