Re:Added: Kobol’s Last Gleaming pt. 1
Again, excellent review!
oooo, uh question? From these Cylon devices, we know now the Cylons wanted to save Galactica, why else put them on there. Was it because they had no access to the the other battlestars, was it because Boomer was there and they wanted to give her a chance to carry out her mission, but Six pointed Baltar to it in the mini and they removed it. Why save the Battlestar? To kill Adama? No, the plan is not fully fleshed out yet, be it the Boomer baby which I think was something the Cylons (or writers) kinda did after they got a pace to that story. Was it to give the Colonials a chance to find Kobol and to have them do all the leg work. I mean, if the Cylons knew about the arrow why didn’t they retrieve it for themselves on Caprica, unless a human can be the one to retrieve it. If it is to make the Colonials work, nice spin from robot’s doing it to humans doing the work.
Who planted it? The same one who told Adama there was 12 models. Boomer, no. There might be a hidden Cylon on this ship; I didn’t want to believe it, but now. Hmmmm. This baby was not the only plan, nor the Kobol find. They want something. They want Earth.
may be the reasoning is that they could put Cylons and Cylon hybrids in power and then get a better reception on Earth. Otherwise they do it themselves.
Or…..or the Cylons have been to Earth and found them much more receptive than Colonials but somehow Cylons stood out. I mean show up on our doorstep, in a space ship, if Earth has the technlogy they’ll blow them out of the sky as we are wont to do of anything we don’t understand 🙄 So, the Cylons lost their way ’cause the early toasters went boom on Earth, and learning from that and taking the Galactica which is an older ship which may be what humans can relate to more than the modern ships, they bring a treat, a gift for Earth. A sky filled with ships and more human-like inhabitants for more acceptance.
The systematically reduce the numbers so Earthlings will not be overwhelmed and they put Cylon supporters in power.
The fight for Kobol will not be only with Cylons. Adama will want to try to settle on Kobol, Roslin will push for Earth. Roslin will get Cylon help via drug or not because it fits their plan, which means get rid if Adama and in the chaos and Tigh in command (with Ellen at his side) they may get Roslin back in power but with Tigh at least he’s neutralized. Plan B if Baltar does not toe the line, Zarek.
Will Zarek settle for Kobol or go for Earth? Wherever he can be in charge, that boy loves power and loves to wield it. if the Cylon’s offer him something good, he might back their agenda.
Thought just food for thought to chomp on with your jellybeans 😉
