I can't believe no one's started a thread about this. New BSG - we find out the fifth tonight. And right now they're re-playing season 4.0.

Guesses anyone? For a bit there I really wanted it to be Mark Sheppard's quirky lawyer, but the end of the episode kind of changed that. Honestly, right now I have no idea who #5 will be!

The thing that bothers me so much about these skin jobs on the Galactica is that , at the time of the attack, she was primed to be mothballed. That 2 of the final 5 ( at least ) were crew members when the Cylons attacked, and the fact that the Galactica was the sole survivor ( omitting Pegasus for a moment ), it just seems to defy the odds, by a lot. If the final skin job is Starbuck or Adama, I'll be quite put out.

I agree. Or Gaius. Needs to be less obvious.

I'm not caught up with the series enough to recall all the details of where everyone was. I can believe that many details were contrived. Then again, the Cylons did spend many years not attacking, and maybe the final thing went down when it did only because the final five were properly positioned...

Boy, I hope the ending isn't disappointing! This series has been such a fun ride.

Either way, they told us we find out who the final skin job is tonight.

T-minus 57 minutes and counting.

And yet no guesses? From you or anyone?

I really wanted it to be Mark Sheppard. Not just cause he's Badger, but he seemed to fit - he's an unlikely minor character with a mysterious past but a suddenly strong influence on the way of things, and he's also a small guy (you may have noted that the skinjobs are powerful sexy women and small, less threatening men - interesting point in itself there...) But the story about his dead family kind of changed things for me. Filled in the gaps that I was imagining in a different direction.

Next to him, I think it'd be cool if the guy who was once on the original series (I'm bad at names) was the pivotal cylon. You know, the excon VP.

Didn't see that comin'!

Color me confuzzled.

My guess before the episode began was Gaeta, then I started to suspect Dee. Actually, I still do because that final reveal might have been just a hopeful dream of Tigh's, and thus a misdirection.

I was thinking that the ball and jacks that Dee found on the planet brought some memories back to her and she couldn't handle the idea of being a Cylon.

She did seem to wig out, much like the Chief, when he touched the wall. Interesting.
