I've watched this scene lots of times (as this is one of my favorite episodes of the season)
I've only seen it once, but it's already one of my favorites.
she won't be out there to save him (the scenes where Starbuck has to listen to her comrades - and her student - dying are just so chilling)
Oh, gods, I know! And she has to be thinking that if she'd just been able to teach them better they'd still be alive, which is a very natural way to try to feel some control over the situation, and one to which Kara is particularly prone.
I understand that she doesn't think Lee has the instincts that will enable him to think outside the box the way that she does
I don't think Lee believed he had those instincts until after he'd already done it.
I liked the Adama/Lee scene, but if it was meant to be lame, then it must be. (I wouldn't have thought it was lame if it had been my parent saying that to me, but then Lee and I have different issues with our parents.)
I'm going to save my Arms squeeing for the LeeCap.
Finally, I've been waiting to find out where the screen cap for my "fair and perilous" icon came from. It was worth the wait!
