Unfinished Business

[lucyparavel]

So, I've watched "Unfinished Business" and I just finished listening to the podcast. I need to watch again I think before I write out a long entry. There's so much to think about

I really wish we had seen more from Kara's point of view in the flashbacks or heard an explanation from her about her choices. I love her and she's always my point of view

I also don't see why Adama seemed so angry with her as well and distanced from her, when we saw him saying calmly that he'd given her permission to leave the military and he seemed totally unaware that poor Lee had a broken heart! I thought exactly the same thing. Unless Adama was angry at her for her attitude once returning to the Galactica, by why the "You used to be like a daughter to me" comment?

I think Ron Moore flip flops with Kara. She's obviously a favorite character for him and she has a lot of depth. She is on a very self destructive path and doesn't allow herself to be happy. There's a lot of baggage between her and Lee, and Anders is the easier choice.

I also think the end of UB is opening the door for an affair between the two - which I don't condone in real life, but am looking forward to wholeheartedly on the show!

Yes, I don't get that either and like I said below, I really hope we get to see them getting closer again. Their relationship was one of my favorite parts of the show.

Maybe Ron just loves her so much and understands her so well that he doesn't see how other people can't?

I totally agree that affairs in real life are terrible and cause a lot of pain, but I wouldn't mind seeing it on the show. I just hope it isn't weeks till we even see them talk again!

just hope it isn't weeks till we even see them talk again! Me too! I want to see them play nice with each other. =)

Hey, just wanted to stop in and say hi - I noticed you had me as a friend the other day so I friended you back.

I haven't seen the episode yet (I live in Canada where it doesn't show till tonight) but I know so much about it already that I could probably write the script. :) I'll come back and comment tomorrow after I've watched it.

I wanted to say though that I agreed with both you and jatnj about Adama's attitude. I don't get it - I wrote a fic about 'Unfinished Business' this week and had Adama furious about her leaving the military and then wanting back ... which seems to me to be much more believable.

Hi, I'm glad that you did! I think I friended you awhile ago, because I was adding people who are interested in BSG and I meant to comment and say hi. Then, your journal is mostly friends locked, yes? So I never saw an entry to comment to! Which was silly-sorry I should have gone and looked for an open entry and introduced myself.

I feel like I know you though from seeing you comment on other people's journals that we both have friended and I'm looking forward to reading more of your entries now. How are things with the baby? I'm sure you must be getting impatient!

Yeah-I don't get Adama's attitude now at all-I hope we get to see them making up or getting closer again as well. I loved the father/daughter vibe that they used to have.
