Actually, Ron's last comment is the biggest spoiler I've ever read for BSG. He just eliminated six major characters from any further suspicion.. Seriously...it's official: Roslin, Apollo, Baltar, Starbuck, Helo and Adama are definately not Cylons. I never thought it would be any of them anyway (as it just wouldn't make any sense), but still...the interviewer definately got Ron on that one. smiley

I really dont know who it'll be. Although Ron did say that there was a clue in Crossroads, which makes me suspect Romo Lampkin. The scene were he was grilling Tigh on what happened to Ellen was interesting; at that point nobody knew that Saul had killed her (Lee had no idea how she died), yet Lampkin lead him to the revelation as if he already knew. Granted, that could've just meant he's an especially intuitive guy (and we all saw that he most certainly was)...or maybe that was the clue Ron was talking about.

Plus, there's a scene one could take as a hint when he is leaving the Galactica just before the last act of the episode. When he sets his cane down, puts his shades back on and walks away, you can faintly hear the iconic 'The Cylons Were Created by Man...' theme for a moment.

But, who knows, right?

Personally, I think the reveal that would have the biggest WTF gravitas, and make the most sense, would be Ellen.




The autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on my
skin. But as the embers of the summer lost their breath
and disappeared, my heart went cold, and only hollow
rhythms resounded from within.

I didn't think about Ellen. The other major characters missing from that pic that I thought of were Dualla, Doc Cottle, Gaeta, and Cally. Since Tyrol and Cally have a kid, that pretty much scratches out Cally (Helo long ago got an automatic scratch-out for the same reason). Judging by the position of the empty cup and Lee's pose, I'm guessing that it's Dee or Lampkin. (There's also the option that RDM is full of shit and trying to throw us off.)

I'm trying to figure out who Sharon and Helo are reacting to - it has to be Tigh, Roslin or Natalie.

After the end of Crossroads, Pt. 2 I'm surprised by the reveal that Lee isn't going back to flight status.

The way Roslin and Adama are in mirror poses on each end of the table is pretty cool.

It's also rather odd that "Head 6" is an old picture chopped in. How hard would it have been to take the picture in two pieces and splice it together, getting new images of Ms. Helfer? Or is the slight "flatness" of the chop intentional (indicating that that version isn't "real"smiley?

I always suspected Ellen (as we were supposed to), but the New Caprica Storyline basically threw us off that, though I agree it's still a strong possibility. The only problem I have with it is that I can't see Ellen as a major player in the storyline.

I like your Lampkin theory, though it'd never occurred to me before, and I'm going to have to go back and re-watch Crossroads. I have to say, I'd be quite happy to see more of him (I absolutely love those sorts of characters).

Another one I don't think anyone's considered yet might be this new woman they're introducing next season; the cancer patient Roslin is to befriend. For one thing, I think that there must be a reason for her introduction other than to just give Roslin someone to talk to when she's getting her treatment. I can just see this woman Roslin befriends having an odd kind of perceptiveness to her or something, and I think that there might be some sort of tie-in to the "Dying leader" thing.

Well, apparently Ellen will be back in flashbacks...

As for the final cylon, it seems that it will have to be a woman, if we refer to the drawing done by Number 3 and her hallucinations. Not sure though, but it seems to be a woman. Dee seems an interesting choice...

Yes, this image, mostly the empty seat controversy, does contain huge spoilers. It seems to me that Natalie is pointing at Athena and Helo. I believe Boomer will have a part to play in this. Might even try to ursurp Athena's place!

I'm also looking forward to see where they'll go with Baltar, Lee, Starbuck, Tigh, Tyrol, Bill Adama, Roslin... Hell the whole bunch!

Sam, Lee decided to fly a Viper due to the emergency, it seems he decided to stick to his decision to resign, making him the first Colonial to resign (the New Caprica massive layoffs apart), and therefore a possible Judas...

Fuck, Lee is done with the military, Baltar has never been more isolated, Roslin is dying again, four key personel are fucked up over being Cylons, Starbuck's return raises questions.

Wow, Adama must start to wonder who's with him. He must feel alone at the helm!

This last season will kick major ass! Might have to download episodes from motels once a week, during treeplanting days off, for half the season!

Looks like a purple/green smoking jacket and a teal shirt.

I think Tigh is looking at Kara and Sam. Natalie must be the one reacting to Sharon and Helo.

Heh...

I heard the craziest theory over on the Sci-Fi forums about Starbuck being a hybrid...with Tigh as her father.

Does he play piano? smiley

Temporally, it could totally work. But it would be rediculous 'jump the shark' notion (and I have a little more faith in Ron than that).

I have enough faith in RDM that if he decided to go that way, the story would rock.

And it would go a LONG way towards explaining Tigh's attitude towards Kara.

If I were a betting man my money would be on the writers bringing back Admiral Kane as the final Cylon. Why go through all the trouble of making Razor in the first place? It was boring filler at best it lacked so much of the shows real intensity and left the door open for some really interesting sub plots for the shows final season.

I dont think they've got that quite right. Sci-Fi is saying March.

If you wanted to check it out, the subject of alternate history is also addressed in the second from the top entry of the Essays section (For Now We See Through a Glass, Darkly).

He really wasn't the radical people make him out to be. Otherwise, it was a very chillingly possible scenario.
