BSG 4.11 - Sometimes a Great Notion

[elly427]

- My reaction to Ellen Tigh's outing? "Really? Wait, is Ellen the fifth cylon? Really? Really? Really. Huh."

- Masterful headfake on the Dee front, RDM. I was pretty convinced she was the final cylon right up until the Ellen reveal.

- And let's have a moment to discuss the absolute adorableness of Helo, Sharon and Hera. For two people who left their daughter for two months, they sure are fun.

- I literally heard the Meow-boom from part of fandom when Lee and Dee kissed. I guess we're going to get the "I loved a cylon - can I forgive/accept them?" from the Kara and Sam side.

- ALSO! Kara went to tell Lee about finding her body INNAFIELD. (That girl needs to start avoiding fields AT ALL COSTS.) I think I am most excited about Kara's story line. What the fuck? I have a theory that that is not Kara from the past but Kara from the future. This theory is based on absolutely nothing. I just think it would be AWESOME.

- Damn. I'm still stuck on Dee killing herself. Good god.
(Also, Dee with Lee allowed for Lee to look adorable on several occasions. I am a-okay with anyone who makes Lee Adama smile that much.)

- And I understand the whole date thing. Comfort is a strong motivator for people. Dee is familar and there and sees the best in Lee, and I believe they did have some good times on Pegasus and that there was a lot of affection and even love between them. And (and I might be the only one who thinks so) Kara has been weird and distant and different since she came back. Call Lee fickle, but I'd disagree.

- Also, Kandyse McClure is beautiful. Just stunning, really. Also, how did Dee get her hair to do that curl-and-flip post-apocalyptically?

- Dee's locker - wow. I forget that Lee is a rariety among the crew, for the most part. Most of the crew would have memories of home (unless they lost them on New Caprica. But still.)

- ALSO. Hey, Adama, way to make you're son's wife's death ALL ABOUT YOU. Man. I have more and more sympathy for Lee and Zak all the time.
"Daddy, I skinned my knee!"
"Yeah, well, I loved that knee!"
Oy.

I can't wait to see what happens next.



Were you aware that in the novel "Sometimes a Great Notion" there is a character named Leland? I don't think he's the collorary for Lee, but it's interesting. There are some other similiarities (according to wikipedia. I haven't read it myself.)
