I never was certain if he was supposed to be Kara's dad or not because she doesn't seem to indicate she recognizes him, but that seems to be the general consensus.
This eppy drives me nuts, like BM. A Kara eppy without Lee is as dumb as a Lee one without Kara. Especially in these two episodes they are a like a phantom limb to me.
Hay, when I saw the casting call for the pianist I was hoping someone I knew might get it, but since he's African American, and that did get around he was her father, I figured he wouldn't get much chance.
It pissed me off, how they ran a dead Cally's name in the mud like they did, then have Chief rip her to Adama.
In the end though Chief got to get revenge on Tory for killing Cally, and it gave the Chief & Cally ship closure and redemption. Lot more then I can say for Lee and Kara.
I was angered at Cally being denigrated too, plus the whole thing of her being a seeming coward under fire, especially after her grit on the Astral Queen.
OMG, that cabbage comment had me seeing red. It was such a huge disservice to poor Cally! That, and the fact that they realized (belatedly) that Nicky would be a half-Cylon baby too (which would negate all the fuss about Hera) and decided to come up with the idea that Cally had something on the side with Hot Dog! Like I said, I stopped looking for sense by this point.
The problem with this episode too much hand waving and mind frakery. Plot holes to drives a truck through.
Helo who has made love to his wife 100s of times by now. Can't tell the difference?
Kara is drinking herself to oblivion. Talking to someone who isn't there yet no one does a thing about it? You do realize that after the mutiny Lee is on the ship. So neither Helo or Lee do a thing about it?
Oh and Kara's dad writes a song that was apparently first written a couple thousand years ago. Not to mention the song happens to have coordinates in it. Not to mention Kara died to remember a song her dad taught her. Yeah okay.....
This eppy is all about let's do some crazy cool stuff. No matter if it's logical, it's cool!
