This is such a frakking good episode. Except for Dee.

Dee is short and, and I never really liked her anyway, and she has stupid hair.

Quick, name the reference. You have ten seconds.

Awesome episode. One of my most favourite of all time. *sigh* Will we get any more like that? I certainly hope so. Though there's not many left ...

I'm pretty sure this was the last "feel good" episode of BSG, but I could be wrong. SO BLEAK.

Definitely one of my favs- I can't tell you how many times I've rewatched this particular one. The amazing back and forth flirting between Apollo & Starbuck (hadn't thought about the nose-to-nose ship contact as a kiss, genius), The Laura, Helo & Chief. Just amazing.
I always felt that Sharon was kind of conflicted at the end of it. Because she wants to be one of these people, and in the end, she kills some of the people she used to belong to in order to defend (and prove herself) to the Galactica.

There's an even better ship thing that Lee and Kara do in the miniseries. Remember when she totally saves his ass at the end and like literally has to attach his ship to hers? Yeah.

Damn you, Ashley, for making me cry all over again at this episode! (At work even!)
Also, have I thanked you recently for being one of the forces in making me watch BSG? 'Cause thank you.
"if there's one thing this show has taught me, it's that everyone deserves love, even old people"
This cracked me up. Adama and Roslin make me all warm and fuzzy, especially when they call each other Laura and Bill. Awwww!
I love looking back on the less-angsty days of Lee and Kara. Everything they do is hot.
Excellent, excellent episode.

You're welcome. I really, really hope that we at least get some happiness and non-angst in 4.5, like REALLY.
