Much as I had thought, BATTLESTAR overcame its slow patch this week with one hell of episode, which I found mostly interesting for its new insights into the cylons. Most of the best parts of this season so far have been the bits focusing on the "cylon civil war," and this week's episode was no exception.
The big arc of the episode was the beginnings of an alliance between the cylons (or at least half of them) and the humans, but what I found most interesting was the further exploration of the connections between each of the cylons within a particular model. The most heartbreaking scene was perhaps seeing Natalie (the primary Number Six this season) being put in a position where she has to kill one of her sister Sixes, much like how Tigh had to kill his wife in Season 3. Also intriguing was seeing Athena confronting her old cylon sisters after her defection, and how she has inspired them in a way.
All in all, a very interesting episode, that has me wondering even more where they are ultimately going with the end of this series. Can't wait for next week!
