Biggest shock for me of the night?

Et tu Racetrack? She always seemed so cool. Stupid Gaeta has to ruin everyone. Plus, he sent his boyfriend to the brig. They are totally on a time out.

This is the first episode of the second half to provoke my interest and enthuse me to the point of debating for hours. A longer post is clearly in the offing, but, yeah, way to go, show. Way to not forget everything and start actually doing shit with the precious little time we have left!

My disappointment in Racetrack stems mostly from the fact that, Hot Dog and that other asshole Pegaus pilot (the one who bitched Starbuck out) aside, she's like the only person I know is even a pilot any more.

The interesting piece about who from Pegasus did or didn't fall in with the mutiny is that it has a bias against people who are used to taking orders. What I mean is that the Pegasus people who are sorta freer to do what they want so long as they kill enemies (pilots, marines, etc.) were with Gaeta; but the deckhand who came over from Pegasus got killed because he wasn't going to buck orders. In fact, I think he might have been one of those who was forcibly drafted into Pegasus by Admiral Cain (if I remember the episode where we learned that correctly, he was the one who told some people about that). Which means that, yes, there is a legacy of Cain's people but that not all of Pegasus people are going to be amenable to the sort of shit Cain's people got/get up to.
