I really enjoyed this episode overall. I liked how in the beginning of this episode the previous episode, Water's, conclusion had a lot to do with the next "story" about something going on with the Galactica: the need for humans to collect the water that was found.

I'm a little more interested in what Boomer 2 is doing with Helo on Caprica after seeing the conversation between Number Six and the other cylon.

The story line with the prisoners trying to start a revolt was extremely interesting and a creative turn. I only thought about the possible cylon attacks, not attacks from people that were on their own ship (except the cylons). Apollo with his cut off sleeve shirt was sexy. as. hell.

Great part was when Number Six screamed at Baltar to say that he can make that cylon detector. She's scary! I wonder what is going to happen with the nuclear warhead. It doesn't seem like Number Six is using Baltar for evil, which is interesting, but its also rather strange that she would just help him discover who is a Cylon and who isn't so I'm interested to see where this story line goes.

I liked that Cally bit off the prisoner's ear that tried to rape her. I liked the blood all over her mouth. It's sad, but she is definitely the weakest actress on the show so far.

It was a pretty neat twist when Apollo said he would give the prisoner what he wanted. Is he in future episodes?

The final scene seemed to be a tiny turning point. They've brought up the cancer again that, from my knowledge, has been left untouched and unsaid for quite a few episodes. I was waiting for it to reawaken. I also randomly had a thought of: what if The President was a cylon? That'd really suck.

8.5/10

NO SPOILERS PLEASE.

Best line of the episode "I guess you finally picked your side." You know you've made the right decision when nobody likes it!

On a side note, is this your first time watching the series??? I will try not to give away any if it is.

These posts are from when I had first watched the series, yes. But that was a little while ago. I thought the content from my original blog would be interesting to put on here.
