Dies und das:

The famous Bob Dylan song ‘All Along the Watchtower’ was the source for the lines of some of the main characters near the end of the episode: “There must be some way out of here, said the joker to the thief / There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief.”

Dialogzitate:

Chief Petty Officer Tyrol: There must be some kind of way out of here.
Col. Saul Tigh: Said the Joker to the Thief.
Samuel Anders: There's too much confusion.
Tory Foster: I can't get no relief.

Soundtrack:

All Along The Watchtower

Are they Cylons?

After reading some of the comments here, I've got a different take on the plot for BSG. I think the so called Final Five shown in this episode are not actually Cylons at all. The flashbacks and music are actually genetic memories of home or some how quasi religious experiences handed down by the gods to help the tribe reach Earth. I'll cite Starbuck's vortex experiences as "evidence" of the latter. Additionally, why would Cylons use such a strongly Earth culture song as a means to activate the final five? On the other hand, I could just be being optimistic.

What a credit to the writers, directors and actors (especially Michael Hogan aka ColonelTigh) that they can suspend (at least my) belief. Could so many of the heroes are fifth columnists? I just don't believe it.

It's good to see we're back on track with the actual story. I felt we were wandering a bit in the middle of this season. Overall, one of the best sci-fi programmes since Stargate SG-1. Keep 'em coming!
