Please bookmark this post -- After you've watched the episode, add your thoughts, opinions, reviews, etc. This isn't mandatory, but it's encouraged so that the community isn't flooded with a hundred different posts. As always, this thread will be added to our Episode Reviews page for easy reference.

	Helo/Athena? Anything going on with them (Anonymous) 2008-06-12 05:19 am UTC (link)
	Do we happen to see Helo or Athena at all? Do they have any scenes together? (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

	Re: Helo/Athena? Anything going on with them justapalindrome 2008-06-12 05:29 am UTC (link)
	Um, none of Athena alone, only a brief bit of Helo holding his own a the start of the ep. After #4 happens there is very nice (small) portion of the montage of them embracing with Hera, who gets a very meaningful camera moment by herself. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)(Expand)

	What about any Adama/Roslin interaction? Do we get something interesting? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	The Adama breakdown we saw in the "Space" trailer... mythical_bird 2008-06-12 06:15 am UTC (link)
	He was on the floor, crying, with Lee kneeling next to him, upset over all the people who've died. That was all about finding out Tigh was a Cylon? (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

	Re: The Adama breakdown we saw in the "Space" trailer... justapalindrome 2008-06-12 06:23 am UTC (link)
	Yes, but as far as the "all the people who've died" no. There was a big plan that would have brought the population waaay down and then, like i said, Tigh pulls a bit of jesus--it's this that Adama is actually upset about. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)(Expand)

	(Anonymous) 2008-06-12 02:59 pm UTC (link)
	The real question is, how do the 2/6/8 alliance react to the revelation that Sam/Tigh/Tyrol/Tori are their fellow Cylons? And by that, I mean: does Leoben try to hug Sam? (Oh, PLEASE tell me he does...) (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

	larsipoo 2008-06-12 03:44 pm UTC (link)
	HAHAHAHAHAHA Sam should punch his lights out. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Um, here's a really simple question... (Anonymous) 2008-06-13 08:36 am UTC (link)
	Is the mid-season finale a single or a double episode? :D (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Re: Um, here's a really simple question... canadiangirl_86 2008-06-13 01:58 pm UTC (link)
	Unfortunately a single! :( (Reply to this) (Parent)

	HOLY CRAPPITY CRAP. I wish the end hadn't been spoiled by everybody ages ago but STILL. THAT WAS GOOD. (Reply to this)

	It does look like Starbuck's viper is the reason they heard the music. But who activated the viper this time (and I guess the last time) is very much a mystery. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)(Expand)

	After watching the last minutes of "Revelations", I suspect that this was the original series finale, originally planned with this open ending. It really has a sense of finality to it. I read on the sci-fi forums that if the strike went on, the episode after Revelations would have been the finale. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	girlandetc 2008-06-13 08:52 pm UTC (link)
	i totally agree - this would have been an amazing series finale, like, ok, they found earth! oh... shit. ha. but i cannot WAIT to find out what happens. how do they live together!? what do kara and anders do? i want to know what happened to earth - hopefully we will find some anders!
