Spoilery Question 4.11



When I saw Starbuck's charred body in the rapter, I immediately wondered if we went to Baltar's home on Caprica if we'd see his body there under 6.

It never made sense that he could survive such a blast, but when I put his seemingly-divinely assisted status next to Starbuck's "special" status, I have to wonder if they're related and if he, like Starbuck is some sort of resurrected copy....

As a side note, I found the revelation of Ellen as the 5th heartbreaking. I felt so bad for Saul....

Good question!

Even though I always mostly thought of Baltar's destiny as Head!Six messing with him (influenced by his ego, of course), other episodes suggest otherwise. So yeah, Baltar's body probably is there on Caprica.

Ground zero of a nuclear blast, I'd say no one's body is in or anywhere near Baltar's place on Caprica.

Yeeeeaaah. Def-definitely an ash tray over there. Yeeeeah.

Well, point. But the crux of the question still stands: Was his body killed and he resurrected, or did Caprica save him in some other way?

Edited to use this icon instead.

Funny how I never gave that any thought. Episode one saw them both incinerated, did it not? Hmmmmmm.

Up! Here comes another aneurysm.

You felt bad for Saul? Ellen was/is a hoochie and a drunk and, as Adama pointed out to him, a negative influence in his life. Hell, he even went and murdered her himself! I don't feel bad for him. The less of her in his life the better.

But then there's this whole skin job thing. So as a human, am I to care about Saul's feelings at all? Unless of course *I* am also a "skin job".

*explode*

yeah, i think all of them are cylons. every last one of them.

How do we know that Starbuck is not a cylon, or that Ellen is/was? What if Baltar is one too? This fifth cylon business is getting fucking confusing!!!
