I...pretty much sobbed hysterically for the last oh, 45 minutes of the show.
Sam. Oh Sam. I. I was expecting something like that, yes. I just didn't really expect it to break my heart into a billion pieces the way it did. Especially when he woke up for that split second and told Kara he'd see her on the other side. And when she told him she loved him. I really don't think i've ever loved a ship as much as I love them.
I wish I could really post deep thoughts about this ep, because honestly? I did love it. It was beautiful. I got my drama and relationships, and I got my shit blowing up. The only thing I could have asked for that I did not get was Sam and Kara, alive, and settling somewhere together.
But you know what? It's ok. Kara's journey was over, like she said. I truly believe she chose Sam in the end, and they ARE together, on the other side...wherever that may be.
The end with Lee...when they showed the flashback? Honestly? That was proof to me that, while they will ALWAYS be special to each other, it was 'broken', and would have never made either of them truly happy.
Mom and Dad was just...heart-breakingly beautiful. I think we all knew she was going to die. But the look on his face when he realized. Oh, god. And and and, he was going to build the cabin anyway. For her. For them. *cries more*
CAPRICA/BALTAR OH MY GOD. <333333
HELO LIVES! ATHENA LIVES! *HUGS THEM*
I'm happy with how they handled the mysticism. We got our answers. I would have liked to have seen Kara 'on the other side', but that's what fic is for.
All in all? I'm...emotionally spent, my heart hurts, my head hurts, but i'm ok with it. I have more thoughts, because there's so much that happened that I couldn't possibly cover it all right now. But for now? Good job, show.
