(The webisodes were written after they had wrapped the regular season, so there was no plan laid out for Hoshi's character when they shot this episode.)

Wait…isn't that Gaeta's boyfriend in the webisodes, or was that someone else?

He was another Pegasus guy.

I missed it before and on Friday. What is that? Loved the episode as well, one of the best ever...kept in me suspense and tense the entire time. I loved Starbuck as well, and like you said, it was amazing and perfect to see Adama and Tigh kicking ass together again. Narcho? I missed it before and on Friday. What is that?

And Adama. And Tigh. And didn't hate Lee for the first time in a very, very long time. And oh, how much I hated Gaeta. And how sad I was to see Laird go. And can I just say: how fucking awesome is the name "Narcho"? I must've missed that before, because I couldn't possibly have forgotten it. Re: your theory -- I agree. And I weep.

For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee! " Funny now to realize that the Cylon-heavy star chamber *should* have spaced Felix. Frakin' traitor, frakin' Quisling, frakin' bastard. Kara, my dearest Kara. So good to see you back at last. If I ever need to charge through a spaceship alternately avoiding and blasting traitors, I want her by my side. The only thing she was missing was a cheroot, smoked down to a stub, clenched between her teeth. My theory now is that the fleet will be decimated, leaving only - Lee and Kara - Baltar and some Six or another - Athena, Hera, and Helo - Tigh and Caprica They'll repopulate some new, beautiful blue marble of a planet and start the cycle all over again.

Kara, my dearest Kara. So good to see you back at last. If I ever need to charge through a spaceship alternately avoiding and blasting traitors, I want her by my side. The only thing she was missing was a cheroot, smoked down to a stub, clenched between her teeth.

My theory now is that the fleet will be decimated, leaving only
- Lee and Kara
- Baltar and some Six or another
- Athena, Hera, and Helo
- Tigh and Caprica

They'll repopulate some new, beautiful blue marble of a planet and start the cycle all over again.
