Okay, so, the mid-season finale. These are just my reactions. I don't guarantee coherency. :|

- HEY THERE, MR. PRES. HEARD YOU WERE HERE. (read: I have been looking for you, MR. PRES.) I think this is the first episode ever to make me nearly wiggle out of my chair at the very first line. I love Kara/Lee so much. SO MUCH. I got up at 5 am to watch this episode and one minute into it, it was already worth it. ♥
- LEE. TALKING ABOUT BEING LITTLE. omg ickle!Lee! all small and scared and shuffling across the room to Bill's desk. omg.
- Gaeta and Dee are so cute together. *giggles*
- TORY, OH MY GOD. I never really liked her character that much, but her joining the cylons in front of the crew is such an amazing, delicate, powerful scene. I was floored. And then floored again the next few times I watched it.
- I can't believe Laura didn't try harder with Tory. Srsly, Tory isn't completely without compassion for her and the fleet. I mean, she apparently carries Laura's meds around with her wherever she goes.
- Has anyone else noticed that practically every other scene ends with a shot of Tigh looking dramatically but secretively frightened? lol.
- ADAMA. TOTAL EMOTIONAL BREAKDOWN LIKE WE'VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE. Like LEE has never seen before. I cried, oh god. But Lee was breathtaking in that scene, and the next. you could practically SEE him coming into his own. Kara was wrong, Adama doesn't have to die for Lee to reach his full potential. He just has to be utterly broken. And he is, right here.
- SAM. AND KARA. I'll ship Lee/Kara to the ends of the earth, but that doesn't mean I don't love Sam, too. And KARA. She was devastated. so devastated it terrified her. Like Adama, only she didn't even have to scream or throw things or drink to show it. It was all in the expression, oh god. I cried here, too. This episode had me on a roll, or something.
- I was so so so scared they would actually airlock Tigh. It's a good thing I don't have high blood pressure or anything. -.-
- ALSO, Tigh calling Lee Apollo? that made me shiver. It's been so long since anyone called him Apollo and I miss military!Lee, more than I realized. And then that shot of him! SITTING IN THE VIPER. Holy shit holy shit holy shit. Such a minor detail, and yet!
- I am somewhat cruelly smirky that Kara is still on a first-name basis with Lee while Dee only ever calls him 'Mr. President' in this episode. lol.
- The Bill/Laura/Lee scene could not have been more perfect. Srsly.
- Adama's speech and everyone celebrating almost had me crying again. Luckily Lee came to the rescue. *snerk*
- The last scene: I don't even know what to say, except I don't hate it. :|

Now that that's out of my system, on to the parody:

OPENING SEQUENCE: Twelve Cylon models, etc. etc.
KARA: Hey there, Mr. Pres.
LEE: I love that we don't even have to role-play anymore.
KARA: We'll just have to come up with something else to spice things up, then. Like christening the Temple of Aurora.
LEE: How about my father's desk, in the meantime? I'd suggest his ass-chair, but it's too sacred.
KARA: More sacred than the Temple of Aurora?
LEE: Obviously. Temples can be rebuilt. If my dad's dead no one will ever be able to recreate the exact shape and smell of his ass on the seat of a chair.
KARA: C'mon, Lee. You'll never reach your full potential as a human being until your ass is imprinted on a chair. Everyone knows that.
FANS: How many firstborns will we have to sell before we have enough money to buy Lee's ass-chair when it finally hits eBay?
D'ANNA: Only four of the Final Five are in your fleet. Surprise!
FANS: We're gonna toss and turn in our sleep over this one line for like, six months now. Thanks, Ron.
D'ANNA: I want all four of them so we can have a massive cylon orgy, and you guys are going to be hostages until I get them.
LEOBEN: Let's cooperate with them! I'd rather frak Kara, the other half of my soul, the fuel that keeps this fiery heart beating, the—
CENTURIONS: We feel so betrayed, Leoben. Hell hath no fury like a centurion scorned! We're on D'Anna's side now, and our guns are the biggest; see and fear them!
ADAMA AND HELO: We have guns too. *are badasses*
ROSLIN: Don't, Bill.
ADAMA: *deflates and is whipped*
GAETA: *drops pills*
DEE: I'll get those for you, Felix, since we're close enough to be on a first-name basis.
GAETA AND DEE: *share a lovey BFF look*
FANS: We knew it! Fag hag. :D
GAETA: Dradis contact! Back to this bullshit again, eh, I liked my singing scenes better. Plus, Cottle was there. But on the bright side, our people are back!
KARA: *right behind Lee on the way to hangar*
FANS: We know what you two were doing! Mwehehehehee.
ADAMA AND D'ANNA: Yes, but do you know what we were doing in that raptor?
SAM: Maybe she won't be able to identify us.
CHIEF: Yeah, and maybe Kara will never cheat on you again.
ADAMA AND LEE: *moment of Adama-ly love*
KARA: Notice how not even Adama's return can make me take my eyes off Lee.
D'ANNA: *eye-fraks the Final Four* Come with me, I've got candy and handcuffs. And the sexiest centurions.
TORY: If it's first-come-first-serve, take me now! Especially if you wear that leather coat.
ADAMA: Now what, son?
LEE: Starbuck! Because my faith in her is unquestioned and unwaverable.
KARA: I acknowledge you with a slight but perfect nod.
ADAMA: If your girl fails, mine would rather be blown up along with the rest of the baseship. But it's your call, Mr. President. You're a big boy now.
LEE: That's a lot of pressure, Dad. I can almost feel a pimple forming.
LEE: I am part of military strategizing again! But I mustn't look too excited or anything.
KARA: Our nukes have to be cocked and locked.
FANS: Starbuck said "cock"! Teheheehee, we are so immature sometimes.
LEE: *is too distracted to say anything for the rest of the scene*
D'ANNA: Look what I brought home, guys.
LEOBEN: It's not Kara. My disappointment is obviously crushing.
TORY: My days of frakking Baltar are over. Looks like I'm in the big leagues now.
BALTAR: I want to thank you and make a really touching speech.
ROSLIN: I'm not really paying attention, but if you let me pinch your nipple we can call it even.
BALTAR: Thank you, God.
TORY: Hi Laura. Here's your medication. I'm a cylon, btw.
ROSLIN: You interrupted my Gaius!nipple time just to tell me that? I am so disgruntled.
COLONIAL REDSHIRT: Know what's worse than being a redshirt? Being a redshirt who's filmed from so far away he can't even prove to his friends later that it's really him in that episode.
D'ANNA: *threatens*
LEE: Admiral, you are a go for the rescue mission.
ADAMA: Yes, Mr. President. I could really get used to calling you that. Has a nice ring, doesn't it?
LEE: Maybe the fact that even the admiral follows my orders will be so sexy it'll cancel out the pimple that formed on my left cheek a few scenes ago.
CHIEF, SAM, TIGH, AND TORY: Oh no, we're going all cylon again.
RANDOM VAMPIRE ON FLAG: I hover ominously over Sam's shoulder. Because this TV show is ominous, remember?
VIPER: Hey, I want to be ominous too.
SAM: You are, you are. *pets*
TIGH: I've been trying to work on my left-eye communication since we were at the nebula, but time is running out and you still can't read it, sigh. I'm a cylon.
ADAMA: That's not possible.
TIGH: Why not?
ADAMA: You had hair when I met you.
TIGH: ...I'm doomed. I'm also one of the Final Five. If you threaten to airlock me, our problems are solved. It's actually sort of exciting, no?
ADAMA: No! We were supposed to grow old together!
TIGH: We already did.
ADAMA: Oh yeah. Fine, then.
ADAMA: *wails and throws things* You didn't see it, but I totally broke the model ship again. Oops.
LEE: Shh, shh, it's okay. Seriously, the more you flail around, the more difficult it is to support you.
ADAMA: Will you be grossed out if I drool on you?
LEE: Uhm. Well, considering the circumstances, I guess it's okay. Make sure none of it gets on my suit, though. And pull it together, seriously!
ADAMA: I can't!
LEE: This is so uncalled for, I bet I didn't do this to you when I was a baby. And even if I did, I can't have been more than ten pounds. Nevermind, I'll take care of it. I'm a big boy now.
FANS: *SWOON*
LEE: *takes care of it*
TIGH: Ow! That's how you take care of things? Violence?
LEE: Despite this suit and haircut, I'm still a military guy at heart, what can I say?
D'ANNA: I am visibly annoyed by your threat, Mr. President. And invisibly turned on.
FANS: *SWOON* We are visibly turned on.
SAM: This viper is magical.
KARA: You're magical. In a mental sort of way.
GUARDS: Actually, he's just a cylon.
SAM: Nevermind that, it's not important. What's important is this viper! It's magical! Like Harry Potter's wand, but bigger and sleeker and better—
GUARDS: Shut up. We're taking you and Chief away.
CHIEF: That tickles, teehee.
KARA: But I didn't even get the chance to shoot him between the eyes...
LEE: I've got Galen Tyrol and Samuel Anders too, now.
D'ANNA: Shit. Sammy!
FANS: Wrong show, D'Anna. He's not your little brother, you don't get to call him Sammy.
LEE: If you don't stand down you'll never get to strip a flight suit off of him. I can't even imagine the horror, can you?
KARA: Let's see if this viper is as sleek and magical as Sam says it is...
VIPER: Look, I found earth! Do I get a cookie? Or perhaps a belly-rub or a good scratch behind the ears?
KARA: You don't have ears. Anyway, since there are no phones or anything from here to the airlock, I must go there in person. This is the reason I grew out my hair, after all. See how it flutters dashingly behind me as I dash through the ship.
RANDOM EXTRA: *is obviously a perv*
BALTAR: Don't do this. I thought we had something, D'Anna.
D'ANNA: Oh, Gaius. That was a lifetime ago. Literally.
BALTAR: But I know Lee! He's strong and stubborn and has gorgeous eyes and hands...
LEOBEN: I wonder what Kara's wearing right now. I wonder if she's thinking of me...
KARA: Lee!
LEE: Kara!
KARA: I've been thinking about you.
LEE: Leoben would be so jealous. If you hold my hand, I won't airlock Tigh.
DEE: And here I am, standing right next to him. Some things never change, do they?
LEE: *IS SITTING IN A VIPER*
VIPER: This is totally better than any cookie or belly-rub or scratch behind the (nonexistent) ears. Thanks, Starbuck.
KARA: You don't get to keep him forever, you know.
LEE: Oh yeah.
FANS: We can haz Starbuck/Apollo/Viper fic?
LEE: I'm only giving you the way to Earth because Adamas are easily swayed by their women.
KARA: *smirk*
D'ANNA: I think I can see why Baltar has a thing for Adamas.
LEE: Let's shake hands so that everyone can see how much sexier my sleeve is than yours.
D'ANNA: It is not. Your sleeve is too conservative. It's all about the wrist-baring, these days.
LEE: ...Really?
ROSLIN: You're terribly cute in your bathrobe.
ADAMA: Oh god, I better leave before she sees me blush.
LEE: *still pondering the bare wrists thing*
ROSLIN: *lathers Lee with compliments*
LEE: Oh no, I feel a blush coming on too...
ADAMA: As warming as it is to see you two flapping your lips at each other, let's go find Earth.
LEE: Man, it's good to have mom and dad back. Now I might actually have time to give my skin the care and attention it deserves.
FLEET AND BASESTAR: *jump to Earth*
ADAMA: I can make the happiest speech in the series sound ominous. It's a talent.
LEE: Nevermind him, I'll give you guys something to celebrate about. *strips!* I'll even show you guys some wrist.
EVERYONE: *CELEBRATES*
FANS: WHERE THE FRAK IS KARA?
ADAMA AND ROSLIN: We've been practicing this identical expression thing, what do you think?
D'ANNA: I think a couple of centurions would make a cuter couple at the moment. At least they know how to cuddle each other's dismay away.
LEE: I just got another pimple, on my chin. I hate radiation.
CHIEF: lol.
LEOBEN: I haven't seen her in so long, what do I say? omg omg omg.
KARA: Suddenly I wish I had Lee's pores. They would have known something was wrong if they'd come here before and Earth had gotten into them...

The end. For a very, very long time. :(

Seeing as we won't be getting any new episodes until 2009, I'm thinking maybe I'll go back and write parodies for some of the old episodes, too. Particularly the earlier season 4 eps, since I didn't start doing these till 4x07. y/n? Anyone have any specific episodes in mind?

And finally, I have a poll. I've read so many theories about who the final cylon might be, but I want to know what you guys think in terms of numbers. So, please vote!

Excellent picspam and snark! I especially love that you managed to screencap the moment before Lee punched T_gh in the face - puffy cheeks FTW!

I'm so torn about the Final Cylon...Deanna's lines in Revelations point towards it being someone from Earth, but theoretically it could also be Roslin, Baltar, or Helo, who were all on the basestar when she said that. Additionally, it could also be the Six/T_gh child if they wanted to get technical, but that would be unsatisfying for me.
I also don't think it's someone dead who comes back, because the Final Five don't resurrect.
I'm sad that she said this, I was pulling for either Cottle or Gaeta, because they are both the epic masters of snark and improve any scene they're in. I voted Roslin, because I like her best of the baseship 3, and Gods, I just don't want her to die...

*grin* Lee does make some pretty funny expressions sometimes when you watch him frame-by-frame. XD Thank you so much!

I am torn too. Almost every time I read a new theory post I'm like -- YEAH. SPOT ON. oh, but wait, two minutes ago I thought the same thing about this other character.. T_T It seems like we've been given so many clues that we could eliminate almost anyone; that's what makes me most antsy.

I just don't want her to die...

I know, right? :( :( :( If she's not the final cylon, I'm still hoping they can do some sort of repeat of her first "cure". :|

About the final cylon, I would prefer a new character what would could be introduce later. The dead characters being a cylons, just sucks and makes no sense.

Thank you for the comment! <333

Yeah, part of me sort of hopes that, but then it wouldn't have much emotional impact on anyone (I find it difficult to believe we'll get terribly attached to a new character with ten episodes left in the whole series), which would also be a disappointment. I dunno. :(

Oh, God. I totally rofled mao. This parody was hilariously great <3.

The one thing I have about that Gaeta moment is that everyone is treating it like a BFF moment, but I saw it more as Gaeta being irritated that he was being coddled, and having his dignity taken away from him more and more.

I got that same impression a moment later, actually, when Tigh asked if he wanted to be relieved, so I definitely see where you're coming from. I'm just biased cause I like the idea of Dee and Gaeta being friends, heh.

THE LEE/ADAMA SCENE KILLED ME. KILLLLLLED ME. I LITERALLY PUT MY HAND OVER MY MOUTH IN SHOCK.

I have no clue who is the last cylon. I think it might be Gaeta. I don't think they'll do any MAJOR characters like Lee or Kara or Adama or Roslin anymore. So, I'm thinking it could be Gaeta. That would be hilarious too. heh. But it might just be Tigh and Six's child.

I'm most convinced by the idea that all of the head!people (Six, Baltar, Leoben) are manifestations of one being who is manipulating events and has brought the humans and Cylons to Earth. But who or what exactly that being is, I have no idea. :P Ships of Light!

My feelings exactly.

At this point, either D'Anna was lying or RDM was. If D'Anna was lying, it's Gaeta or Dee (probably Dee, since they've been trying to make us forget she exists so far this season). If RDM was, it's one of the hostages, and my money's on Roslin.

Or we don't know enough about the FF to have a clue. That's probably it. And it's not fair to the fans, RDM, you bastard.

After Three not finding the fifth within the fleet, I'm leaning toward the final cylon being on Earth. This is based partly on a notion I have that the final five cylons don't resurrect, but they do reincarnate, through some kind of collective wireless unconscious. (This notion is predicated upon an idea that the present day 'humans' are themselves the descendants of older human/cylon hybrids and are hybrids themselves - so the wireless social unconscious (my apologies to Jung) is responsible for all the oddball visions and mysticism and head!characters).

SO! Once Three had her vision at the Temple of the Five, I figured the final five are reincarnations of the five priests who followed He Who Shall Not Be Named (or however Roslin referred to the god worshiped by the five priests); I'm going to make an assumption that this is the Cylon God (possibly a human who built the first 5 skinjobs (priests) on Kobol?).

At some point in the timeline, folks return from Earth to Kobol (leaving behind beacons et al.) before the twelve tribes leave to settle the 12 colonies. I'm going to make a leap and suggest that possibly 4 of the 5 priests' subsequent (re)incarnations were on that mission and ultimately ended up joining with the twelve colonies, and this is why four of the five are with our colonials. The fifth reincarnated priest remained on Earth, and so perhaps we'll meet his/her present descendant on Earth?

Or it could be Roslin, and Three was just messing with us.

Was the Temple on the algae planet built on the way to Earth or on the way back to Kobol from Earth? I guess if it was on the way from Earth back to Kobol, then all five reincarnated-cylon priests were there, which kills my last cylon is on Earth notion.

So then, sticking with the reincarnating hybrid cylon theory, Gaius "Tool of God" Baltar could be the reincarnated fifth priest, who was also with the other four who traveled back to Kobol. Gaius wasn't in the fleet at the time Three asked for the four. We'll never know what would have happened if he had stepped into the light in the Temple (but he certainly had a sense that he was meant to). Three did torture him horribly: he could be the one she apologised to? OTOH, I'd have expected Three to be even more distressed about his injuries if he were one of the five. I also can't figure why she wouldn't tell him.

Ugh. I totally shouldn't have voted in the poll. I have no idea, since with the reincarnating cylon personalities theory, it could also be both the Tigh/Six child AND someone who has died earlier in the series. *flail*

Wow, that's a complicated theory, but sound (as far as I can tell). I did read another one about the present day humans being descendants of older cylons which made a lot of sense, and yours is pretty similar in that respect. That would really be a mind-frak for the whole crew.

Randomly, I would absolutely love for the cylon god to be a human, and even better if it's someone we recognize or know about.

Do we actually know what happened to the five priests in the temple? As in, why would they pause on that planet for long enough to build a temple on the way to or from Earth and then leave again to complete their mission?

I thought for the longest time it would be Gaius, but now it just seems like he was always meant to be set up as a huge red herring. He does fit most of the clues, though, except that one comment RDM made about the final cylon not being in the Last Supper picture. gah. And I agree that Three would probably have acted differently around him if he was the fifth. Roslin, as well.

I don't think it's such a crackpot theory after all; I rather like the reincarnation idea. :)

UGH, WHAT? LEE IS PRESIDENT?

I'm so confused. I need to stop reading your LJ posts and start watching the damn show. Maybe later.

Uhh, so I have no idea who the final cylon COULD be, but it SHOULD BE GAETA!!!! HAAAAAA.

YES. He became president in the last episode LOL. but only for like, 1.5 episodes (so far). Laura is back now.

You really effing do, omg. This season gets better and better, I promise!

I WAS ROOTING FOR GAETA FOR SO LONG. Now I really have no idea. jfkds;aflksd;sd

My final fifth theory changes every day. Just now I'm sort of being swayed by the "dead person" theory, and I'm glad at least that "Revelations", whilst not revealing the fifth, gave us some further clues (not in the fleet eh?)

I am aching from the laughter, for some reason I didn't notice the ominous "VAMPIRE" thing when watching the episode and it really fits well with OMINOUS - LOL! Personally I would love it if you did some more episode parodies. You should have put a poll for that, it would have been "YAAASSS!" all the way.

My final fifth theory changes practically every time I read a new theory! lol. I just wish we could actually trust all the clues instead of constantly questioning them all. But if we don't, I think almost everyone can be eliminated. -.-

Hahahha, actually I didn't notice either until after I took that cap! Then I did a doubletake and went "what? vampires?", lol. Thank you so much for the encouragement, I am all flattered and glowy, heee. <3

oooooooooooo! I don't know if many people have brought up that "dead person" possibility!

poor Kara then, her boss (Saul), her husband (Anders), and her enemy/friend (Kat)! yikes!

and you MUST do parodies of the other episodes... whole show maybe? LOL

and i loved the fact that you show lee prettiness so much :D

Heee, I most likely will. Not the whole SHOW, lol, but probably the first six episodes of season four and some of my favourite ones from seasons 1-3. :) Thank you so much for all the comments and encouragement! <l;333

*g* I couldn't help it if I tried. Every time Lee has a scene I just get this crazy urge to screencap the hell out of it, lol. It's probably a good thing that I've limited myself to one cap per scene. :P

As for the poll, I think it's Tom Zarek. He's top of my 'possible Cylon' list right now.

I'm still holding out for Tom Zarek, though one of my friends made a good case for Romo Lampkin

I could just highlight the whole thing, but here's just a random selection of bits that made me grin like a fool

ADAMA: No! We were supposed to grow old together!
TIGH: We already did.
ADAMA: Oh yeah. Fine, then.



ADAMA: *wails and throws things* You didn't see it, but I totally broke the model ship again. Oops. I totally thought that. I was looking out for telltale bits of rigging among the wreckage...

KARA: You don't have ears. Anyway, since there are no phones or anything from here to the airlock, I must go there in person. This is the reason I grew out my hair, after all. See how it flutters dashingly behind me as I dash through the ship. Arg - yes - phones? Hello? Works ship to ship but internal is broken?

LEE: *IS SITTING IN A VIPER* *squees. Also, panties feeling damp* (omg wtf tmi. Like it's a surprise).

Yes, please, more! I may have to friend you to keep an eye on them... ;)

Man, that scene was so raw and tense and delicate I had a hard time making fun of it, so I'm glad you liked it! :D

I guess it would've been pretty anticlimactic if Kara had just picked up the phone and called him, but at the same time I kept rolling my eyes at all the running and shoving people out of the way.

I TOTALLY HAD THE SAME REACTION TO LEE IN THE VIPER. Starbuck's viper, no less. I just wish he'd stayed in there longer, maybe had a nostalgic moment or something, hahha, even though there wasn't any time.

Thank you! I am totally friending you back, cause omg the Jamie love. ♥

CHIEF: Yeah, and maybe Kara will never cheat on you again.

Ahahahahaha. Seriously. XD

I love love the idea of Gaeta and Dee BFF. Poor Gaeta! He looks horrible.

And Lee? I'm disappointed you didn't strip beyond your jacket. Come on.

Oh military!Lee, how I miss your random scenes in the bathroom. You wear too much clothing as president!lee.

I really have no clue who the fifth is. I'm just gonna say it's someone from earth. Like the sole remaining survivor.

Oh Earth. Blowing ourselves up.

Unless this is somehow like...prehistoric earth. Original 13th colony blew themselves up, then the human/cylons came and repopulated it. So right now we're all cylon/human hybrids.

I also wanna know what happened to Boomer. Is she stalking them? I'm gonna assume she somehow got off the resurrection ship.

XDD That line by Chief was one of my personal favorites too, actually, hahahahah.

GAETA GOT A HUG FROM A BOY, THOUGH. maybe it's his secret boyfriend. teeheheee.

I KNOW, going from mostly naked in a towel to wearing a suit all the time. :( I also miss military!Lee, so frakking much. the haircut, the flight suit..

"someone from Earth" makes the most sense, theoretically, but on the other hand it's supposed to be someone we feel strongly about, and I have a hard time believe they're going to introduce a new character in the final ten episodes of the series. That would just feel like a cop-out, I guess. :(

Heh, that would certainly be a mind-frak, eh? I guess it would certainly facilitate peace between the humans/cylons, though.

I hope she did get off the Res ship. I still ship Chief/Boomer. :(

Chief laughing when he got outed, Chief laughing in the launch tube, Chief laughing on Earth... he's like the happiest cylon EVA! LOL.

Extra laffs for the HP reference about the Viper bc the logo on it totally reminds me of Hogwarts, lol.

And I vote Bill's model ship for the final cylon, the ammount of times that thing has been resurected :P

Hahahha I know. it's sort of sad, though, in its cynicism.

LOL. I hadn't thought of it that way, but now that you point it out.. I can see it. XD

Without the Res Hub, either! Clearly it's got hidden powers. ;)

*g* THANK YOU. I just found it funny that the best evidence Adama had against Tigh being a cylon was that he had hair, lol. and to tell you the truth I didn't notice the vampire till after I'd capped that shot, lol.

Ooooh. I could think of a few things to say about Cain. *snerk* Thank you again! <3
