Amazing episode of Battlestar Galactica.

One of the best parts had to be when Tigh confessed to William Adama that he was a Cylon. When he revealed the truth and offered himself up as a bargaining chip to save the human fleet, and Adama tore up his office in a fit of rage and despair, I was so drawn in to the suffering.

Another excellent part was when the Colonials jumped into Earth’s orbit, and you could see the pure relief and happiness in the eyes of the Colonial survivors. For over three years, they have been searching and now, they have finally found a home.

But the best part was - of course - the revelation of Earth. Seeing an irradiated New York City was certainly not a surprising outcome, but the way it was all displayed was enough to realize that the Colonials are truly without hope, and since these events take place in our future, it is - indeed - humanity’s true last gasp of life that can be found within the Colonial fleet.
