If I had been in Callys position, I would have confronted Tyrol about it. But, since she's been whacked out on drugs and no sleep, it isn't surprising that she flipped out.

See, right now, I don't think we understand these Fian Cylons enough to rule anyone out. Maybe somehow a Cylon could be borne to two human parents, like Jesus. I'm both worried and excited by how this whole thing will turn out, because I trust Moore knows exactly what it all means, but the resolution to everything could be a little out-there. Somehow, all this has to happen again, as the prophecy keeps stating. Maybe Earth is Caprica, or when they get there, Hera grows up to become Laura Roslin, the final Cylon. Either way, as cautious as I am, I believe Ronald D. Moore has, and possibly has had, the entire concept of the end of the show in mind since the start.

Starbuck & Sam don't have issues, Starbuck has issues.
Sam is trying to keep peace and follow her lead.

That was f'kd up about Cally being chucked out the airlock, but in a sense she had it coming because she seriously danced w/the idea; glad her kid didn't go with her, not his choice.

Obviously Tory is exhibiting some tweaked out personality changes, and I don't think its because of identity shock, she just killed someone fairly close - it's ceylon sleeper behavior no question.

I wonder what Tyrol will do to Tory iffn when he finds out what she did to Cally.
Things that make you go Hmmmm . . .

That ending, like much of the episode itself, was a bit surreal. It was hard to believe these things were actually happening as we watched them. The big question to ask now is whether Tory threw Cally out the airlock to protect the Cylon secret or for other reasons altogether. Is Tory angling for influence with the Chief? Can Tory detect or feel that Cally is the final Cylon? (She DID tell Doc Cottle that she started feeling strange once they entered the nebula - and we do know that the Chief seems to have a thing for Cylons.) Great episode, but I hate to see Cally go - she was a center of innocence and personability in an often cold and harsh show.

I just caught the last ten minutes of this episode and was "blown away" that Tory killed Cally! I'm glad that Lucy Lawless is back!

Dr. Cottle is my pick for final Cylon. He's in the perfect position to hide

Simon-Tyrol-Tighe-Torry- theres a theme there.
T=Tom Zarek? Z=final letter
Anders, Boomer, Caprica, Cavil , leobon Conoy,D'anna, Aron Dorol,
E= Ellen Tigh?,
Preistess Elosha (That would be AWESOME!)
dont belive it would be F=Felix Geata. They would have to skip a letter.
