‘You’re Not Going To Believe
This!!’ Ronald D. Moore’s
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA
Series Finale Begins Tonight!!

I am – Hercules!! “And the fifth, still in shadow, will claw toward the light, hungering for redemption that will only come in the howl of terrible suffering. I can see them all. The seven, now six, self-described machines who believe themselves without sin, but in time, it is sin that will consume them. “They will know enmity, bitterness, the wrenching agony of the one splintering into the many, and then they will join the promised land, gathered on the wings of an angel. Not an end, but a beginning.” The Sacred Scrolls say that the Temple of Five (built by the 13th Cylon tribe more than 3,000 years ago) was dedicated to the five priests who worshiped "the one whose name cannot be spoken." For some reason the five priests bear the faces of the five Cylon resurrection scientists from “Earth” who were apparently born only 2,000 years ago? And who is “the one whose name cannot be spoken”? The 2,000-year-old Cylons were polytheistic, like members of the other 12 colonies. (Apparently we’re to learn that it was a hot young computer genius named Zoe Greystone who turned the Cylons into monotheists back when Bill Adama was still a preteen.) Why does Hera draw “All Along the Watchtower”? Why has Kara been painting The Eye of Jupiter since she was a lass? Why did Galactica happen upon the algae planet just as its sun was going supernova? Who is the recalled seventh model, the artistic one named Daniel? Is he Kara Thrace’s daddy? Is he Kara Thrace’s former lover, Zak Adama? Could Bill Adama have somehow sired a Cylon? Why does Roslin share Hera dreams with Boomer and Six? Last week Baltar offered proof of Kara’s resurrection, which probably didn’t prove a huge surprise to anyone. (How strange that Baltar seemed to have only a passing familiarity with Starbuck after all this time!) We also saw Boomer return to the scary robot hive to hand Hera over to John Cavil, who was to introduce her to new “playmates.” Does tonight’s hour focus on the retrieval of Helo and Athena’s little girl? SciFi says:
A call for volunteers is made for a final mission, as Galactica is stripped for parts.
“Galactica” mastermind Ron Moore co-wrote the two-hour series finale for “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” which starred Visor-Free LaForge and Greenskeeper Picard and received overwhelmingly favorable notices. The finale script for “Battlestar Galactica” apparently put everyone in tears, including Ron Moore himself. The first hour of the three-hour finale airs tonight; the final two hours air next week. 10 p.m. Friday. SciFi
