Torn, aka the episode in which Lee returns to being hot and Kara returns to a more flattering haircut (and they finally say things to each other for the first time this season, no matter how distressing/unsatisfactory)

I am READY for this.

I'll just get my dvd and we can start.

Btw, that is such a perfect description of this episode.

Ok, I'm ready when you are.

Really sorry, my internet went mad for about ten minutes back there - I'm up to the main titles.

I thought something happened so I didn't start. I just hit play now.

I really cannot make myself be interested in Baltar and any incarnation of Six right now, this baseship shuff is so boring.

I usually like Six but the whole baseship arc is so strange..... and yes, sort of boring

Nice to see them all flying again....and Lee does seem in a better mood than he's been so far this season.

I'm not there yet but it's a good think to look forward to.

The funny thing is, if it wasn't for the scene on the hangar deck afterwards one might almost believe Lee and Kara were back to normal here.

Yes, they are almost normal here. Which can not be said about my dvd. I had to reload it 3 times already.

Though once one listens carefully, Lee is being sort of short with Kara over the comms...not without reason, but it's clear enough.

I can't tell whether Hot Dog is awed or horrified by the fact that Kara landed her bird on zero fuel, he sounds equal parts hero-worship and wtf.

I think that it's a 50-50 thing with Hotdog.

and OMG - Kara's face when Lee grounds her.

And now Lee is yelling at Kara and effectively exploding all my hopes that they've reconciled :(

And Chief and Cally look far too concerned at that :/

well, at least Chief and Cally seem to act normal.

And Lee is finally back to shirtless hotness again, lol @ Helo calling him 'Slim'.

My mind stopped working during that scene....., it's so good to have him back.

and now Felix readying from Pythia and explaining pulsars to Roslin. CUTE!

I knoooow, he is the cutest there. Best (non-hurting) part of the episode, imo.

awwwwwwwwwww, FELIX!!!!!! Being all geeky and Earth-findey, I love it when he gets brainy and expositions everything to the President. (and he's super cute with PapAdama and Roslin, down to correcting himself for calling Baltar 'President')

I know.... this rewatch clearly made me love him so much. It's strange but good.

More boring baseship stuff, and for some odd reason an Eight doing naked...ballet? Yoga?

Even the projecting doesn't quite make this interesting.

the whole explanation about projecting was the only barely suportable thing about that scene.

And now Sharon is getting a new callsign, and Hot Dog looks as derpy as ever suggesting it.

And now here comes Tigh to be bitter.

I totally forgot that Hotdog was the one suggesting it.

and Tigh - I undestand him but it wasn't Helo's fault that they were down on NC.

Kat on the other hand is a little.... as per usual.

OH GOD Caprica explaining Cylon internal politics to us, complete with handy pictures of all of them in case we forgot what they look like.

More baseship.... *sigh*

Oh god Kat, just stop. And Saul should stop too, even if he has more cause for it.

Poor Kara's face when he reminds her of being off flight duty though :(

They should both just stop. the whole discussion is mute.

and despite the way that she says it I understand Kat's POV.

Helo in full XO mode.... I like this :)

I like Helo's way of addressing the Tigh-and-Kara situation here, he doesn't want to be a tattletale but has to tell Adama what's going on.

More baseship stuff, now *sigh* though hybrid >>>>>>> other non-Six/Eight Cylons.

I must have been hard for him. especially since it involved Kara.

lol @ 'breathes in cosmic dust'

and at Gaius in flight suit.

More of the Cylons yakking, I don't want to be listening in on their conferences and endless circular arguments.

They are like little children bickering.

and Gaius being Gaius aka BS his way out of things.

Baltar looks more like he's in a spa having hot stone massages than being held prisoner.

you have to give him credit for making the most of it.

OMGs Adama being an ass. But I have to give him credit also because it works.

he says some pretty hurtful things here. And most of them are true.

yeah, he was harsh here but I feel like they needed it.

And now comes Kara's haircut! I feel like it's cut shorter afterwards, though, when she goes to see Kacey.

And her face when she looks up at him from the floor :((((((((((

:((((((((((

Oh god Kara's face when she's looking at Kacey T___T

It's enough to destroy anyone. (and poor Saul, too)

I want to strangle Leobon just for this alone.
