There have been some great responses to last night's episode - it's the best of this season so far. I'm going to rewatch the last two episodes tonight (and I promise I won't skip over any Roslin material.)

I too loved the scene with Barolay/Six/Natalie/Anders. It was pretty powerful. Tricia Helfer really is the most under-rated actress on the show. They make her out to be the bombshell but she's gotten really good at portraying the different personalities of Six and she's come so much further than the other actors when you consider their skill levels in the pilot mini-series.

I was really impressed with Anders, too. He and Tori seem to balance each other out perfectly. Tori is so ruthless and Anders was quite compassionate. Anyway, it was sad to see one of his Pyramid resistance fighters bite it. Poor Barolay. She just screamed 'red-shirt', though, even more so than Sgt. Matheson. I so wanted him to touch the goo, though. I laughed when Natalie, Starbuck and Leoben were like, "They Final Five know how to get to Earth!" and Anders was standing there, looking like he was thinking, "Umm, not really..."

I think I ended up skipping over the Roslin Emmy reel because the first two scenes were boring for me - it felt like filler. Oops! Have to make sure the main title names get at least a few seconds on screen! (Except Jamie Bamber.) Or, maybe I still have bad flashbacks to the David Duchovny "For Your Consideration" X-Files episode, The Field Where I Died. That episode alone make me cringe any time a character (in any show) gets an extra-emotional episode, because it's usually so melodramatic. Sigh. Still scarred by the X-Files after all these years...

The Hybrid - love her. Her scream freaked me out. I have to rewatch to get her full prophecy, but it seemed like it tied in the Scrolls of Pythia prophecy about the dying leader (by mentioning the opera house that only Caprica, Athena, D'Anna, Roslin, Baltar and Hera have experienced) with Kara's destiny. Kara's a harbinger and will lead them to their end. A harbinger is just a sign or an omen, not necessarily bad, and the end can mean the end of their journey, so I'm going to remain optimistic.

Also, in series news: June 13 will be the last original episode of the year. It looks like they're splitting up the season over two ten-episode years as originally speculated. that means we only have five episodes left this year.

Strange Flute, I read an interview with Katee and Grace where they mentioned seeing the script for episode 14 or 15 already, and that was a month or so ago (I posted the link here a while ago. ) I've also seen links to casting sides for episode 18. For this season, Razor counted as 4.01 and 4.02, the April premier was 4.03, etc. 4.12 will air in June, then 4.13 will air in 2009. They aren't keeping the actors on hold until next year because it won't give them an opportunity to find other work and they want to get everything done before a possible SAG strike this summer.

And the Hybrid's full prophecy:

Thus will come to pass: A dying leader will know the truth of the opera house, the missing three will give you the five who have come from the home of the thirteenth. You are the harbinger of death Kara Thrace, you will will lead them all to their end.

Roslin, Athena, Six-in-the-brig and Hera shared an Opera House vision.

Non-spoilery episode update: On May 8, they were shooting day three (of seven) for Episode 17 - that means only five more episodes to be shot, at an average of 8 days per cycle, so 35 days of BSG principal photography left.
