Season 2, Episodes 5 & 6

Episode 5: The Farm

Highlights/Moments of Revelation

• Starbuck in bed with Anders: what about Lee?
• Laura not knowing how to use a tape recorder.
• I felt that the hospital where Starbuck was being held was a Cylon trap immediately, but thought that would be too obvious. Nice double-bluff.
• Commander Adama crying over Sharon's body, despite (or perhaps because of) the memory of her shooting him.
• All the Cylons need is love!

Questions

• Why should the resistance guys have believed that Starbuck and Helo weren't Cylons?
• Is Starbuck now pregnant?
• Where did Caprica Sharon get the Cylon ship?

Quote

• Tom Zarek: "Zeus has returned to Olympos."
  

Episode 6: Home, Part 1

Highlights/Moments of Revelation

• Surprising but pleasantly reassuring kiss between Lee and Starbuck.
• Commander Adama talking like his son is dead.
• Great transition shot from Adama and Tigh coming out of the press conference to Gaius smoking in his lab with Six.
• Dee is awesome.
• The final scene featured the same music as the final scene of season 1's "Hand of God" (episode 10), I think.

Quote

• Gaius: "Why is it when things go wrong, they go wrong so well?"
