boomqueen: (BSG - Kara/Anders zombie lurve)

The whole episode was kind of all over the place (still feels a lot like one of those episodes that moves the plot forward but is kind of schizo to watch) but it had good chunks of Kara and other interesting/good bits.

Sam:
Hybrid!Sam is one of those ideas that works on paper but is not working out for me.

I have loved Sam most out of all the Final Four since the S3 finale. I have had really high hopes for his identity angst, and how it would affect his relationship with Kara and what his destiny/purpose as a cylon would be. I love the scene with Kara at the end where she says they are both different people than before and they're going to figure out what means together--that kind of support and solidarity from Kara is everything I had ever hoped for him.

But the hybrid stuff just isn't working for me so far. I kind of want Sam to be awake and lucid so he and Kara can have some real resolution--not just him babbling in a tub while she talks at him. Maybe someone else will be able to explain to me why it might be a good/interesting direction for Sam?

Kara:
It was kind of scattered all over the episode but there was actually a lot of resolution for my girl in this episode. In reaching out to Gaius to know whether the tags were really hers and in accepting Lee's unconditional love/support despite her uncertain identity, Kara was able to finally accept her death.

I feel like they were definitely emphasizing the Aurora/angel idea this week, as opposed to the hybrid idea like last week. Anyone else have any thoughts on what that means for Kara/her parents/her birth/resurrection?

I have faith in her to find out what the pattern in the music is!

Also, why didn't she freaking PUNCH Baltar? What the heck was up with that slap?!?

Lee:
How much do I love him right now!!!

I loved him yelling at the quorom in defense of his father and the ship.

I love his omgwtfbaltar moment.

I loveloveLOOOOOOOOVED the scene in the memorial hall with Kara. What a perfect moment to demonstrate everything I love about Lee for Kara: his unwavering support and his ability to help pull her out of her own head to accept herself and move on. AMAZING. And I'm not afraid to admit that I totally swooned at the face-touching. Did you guys see how it made Kara just completely light up? And roll her eyes with old-school Kara adorableness?

OH PILOTS YOU KILL ME WITH AWESOME AND JOY.

Misc:

Poor Helo was totally shit on. No mercy no sympathy, just suck it up because everyone's family dies someday? HARSH.

Felt a little weird about Hera's spontaneous stockholm-syndrome love for Boomer. And a more than a little annoyed with how all over the place Boomer's emotions/brain space have been written.

Please no more Adama-breaks-down-and-zoom-in-on-his-pocked-angsty-face scenes, okay?

Yay for more Opera House! But boo for no more answers as to what the heck the Opera house means!

Teehee for Kara's convo while peeing! (because I am really five years old...)

So excited for the finale you guys--can't even tell you!
