Perhaps this episode will deal with Lee Adama's promise to build a bar for the pilots? bochawa 08:47, 12 August 2006 (CDT)Bochawa
- Then that would call for a cameo by Ted Danson. Straycat0 15:07, 13 August 2006 (PDT)

I'm glad to see EJO directing another episode. I loved Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down. --BklynBruzer 13:10, 5 October 2006 (CDT)

- Thoughts on the promo pics of Baltar in the Resurrection Tank? Dream? Real? Baltar going off in his own little world again?--RUSnooky 21:41, 26 January 2007 (CST)
- RDM said in an interview it was a dream or fantasy sequence --Mercifull (Talk/Contribs) 07:08, 27 January 2007 (CST)
- Note the dead surrounding him. Yep, unless zombies are a new Cylon menace or Colonial weapon, I'd say fantasy. --Spencerian 09:59, 27 January 2007 (CST)
- Missed the Podcast...thanks Merciful. Maybe the Final Five are all zombies?! :)--RUSnooky 17:31, 27 January 2007 (CST)

Podcast Question
So, these things involving Joe's Bar, Layne, and Sagitarrons, were they ideas proposed for the episode that got dropped in the writing phase, or did they film these scenes and they got cut? Alpha5099 12:51, 29 January 2007 (CST)
- I think most was dropped during rewrites before it was shot, but as you see there are some pieces of it left, that still work. For example Ishay is obviously shocked at what they do. Though if I recall correctly, the Sagittaron thing could become part of Baltar's trial later. I'd have to listen to it again. But so could you ;) --Serenity 13:00, 29 January 2007 (CST)
Baltar = Saddam
That was my character and visual connection.
Just a few other personal observations... The writing is hitting a new level. The last couple have seemed more sophisticated to me. One reason might be that the writers are catching the characters up on all the facts that the viewers have known for some time. The humans don't come off quite as clueless as they used to. Also, I assume that drastic time jumps are usually avoided due to fear that the viewer won't be able to keep up, but I've noticed that this episode skips over long exposition to get to the torture scenes and the finale of Rapture, the "rescue" from the planet's surface and the supernova, was all montage -- totally unusual but consistent with the stronger focus on characters.
- I don't see it. The closest historical parallel I'm aware of is Philippe Pétain. -- Gordon Ecker 20:26, 29 January 2007 (CST)
- I just meant the look mostly, and the victim mentality. I wasn't making a historical comparison.--Galactageek 01:04, 30 January 2007 (CST)
Mary McDonnell
Did anyone else just absolutely love her performance in this episode? Especially the "COLONEL TIGH, GET IN HERE!" part :D -Madbrood 23:42, 29 January 2007 (CST)
- She was frakkin scary. :) --Galactageek 01:05, 30 January 2007 (CST)
