Ep. 419 "Someone to Watch Over Me" Discussion (SPOILERS)
Yeah...wow. It's getting tough to talk about these episodes, there's just too much going on to even begin processing the info in a rational manner. Sooo...I'll say more when I can think of it.

Yeah. Wow.

That was frakking incredible.

One of the best episodes of the whole show.

That musical cue alone -- when the music became the music -- would have been a good ending. Then there was tons of juicy action after that.

I second the motion of "that was frakking incredible".

That was truly impressive.
Phasers?!?!?  We don't need no frakking phasers!

well I guess its pretty clear that Kara's father was the Daniel the 5 talked about. which is why she's somehow connected and knew the song from when she was a child. Still don't know how she was able to come back.... with only 3 episodes left.

Calm down, they haven't forgotten.

At this point I trust them implicitly -- after the superb job of answering questions they did in 'No Exit', I think they can handle this.

What's this talk about pianos and daddys...  Was I the only person to notice Kara slightly nude in a shower in the beginning?

Nude > Piano

And yet you failed to notice Boomer who was also nude at one point? :p

Seriously though, fantastic episode.

There's plenty of Boomers to go around, but only one Kara.

i loved the bit where "Daniel" was riffing on the work of another composer and comes up with something that sounds just like the opening bars of the classic galactica theme :D. That was almost as good for me as the cylon-war fight in razor with its echoes of the old the theme creeping in there too :D

oh Felgercarb!

A good episode indeed.

I do remember that in my fan fiction I wrote a while ago a ship jumped too close to another and blew it all to hell.. and you lot all argued that's not how it worked.. so HA!

Yea that was pretty crazy how does that work? Looks like that's going to be more work for the diaspora team, good thing they decided to wait. And I never thought boomer would be such a *****. She not only beat up athena, she locked her in a closet and screwed her guy right in front of her. Then she took her kid.

And anyone notice now that the location of the fleet has been given away, and Galactica can't jump? I can't wait till the next episode I guarantee you it will be epic.

But that episode was one of the most amazing I've ever seen. Even though I like the action a lot more, when Daniel dissappeared and when the notes all matched up i didn't know what to say.

I really don't think that slick/kara's father == daniel. I thought that might've been it, but it doesn't sync up. Kara's a half-cylon, too? That wouldn't make Hera as special as she supposed to be. That's why they retconned Nicolas as HotDog's son.

I really love this episode. The permeation of music was incredible. The Virtual-Slick also really reinforces the idea of Beings of Light once again.

I just read Bear's blog entry on the episode, all three parts, and my god it was so enlightening. It brought so much more to the episode for me.

I really hope he adds the piano arrangement to the season 4 soundtrack.

I tend to agree with you there Seraph.

BTW, I sent you a PM on SFM cause I figured you'd get it faster. :D

Hera is overrated by everyone, since everyone either never heard of daniel, or thought that he was quite killed by Jon Cavil...

 
Re: Ep. 419 "Someone to Watch Over Me" Discussion (SPOILERS)
I think Daniel is Kara's dad too....it just fits too well. When the music started to become recognizable, and you see the Five suddenly perking up like dogs hearing a silent whistle, it all pointed to me at Kara having a Cylon connection. And here's a thought...maybe she's not half Cylon. Perhaps Daniel is her step father? That would keep Hera as being the only half Cylon.

Three episodes to go and the anticipation is building...can't wait to see how this saga ends.
