The ties that bind

Mmmm I wasn't too impressed by the latest BSG episode.
I do have mixed feelings about it.
The Demetrius stuff didn't live up to my expectations. As everybody I'm wondering where Hera is and who's taking care of her. It is a long mission and I don't buy her parents living her for so many days after everything that happened.
Kara is boring me, and her sex session with Sam was just poor writing. This is really getting OLD !
I much prefered the other "mis-marriage" of the episode, that is Chief/Callie. The two pairings mirror each others. Just like Tyrol, Kara married Sam for wrong reasons. Callie loved her husband more than he loved her, just like Anders loves Kara more than she loves him. And in both marriage, there's a Cylon.
Will Kara find out soon about Sam's Cylonhood ?
I must say that I was "slightly" spoiled about Callie's death but I didn't expect Tori to airlock her. Tori has spent too much time with Roslin! Of course the minute I got that she was going to be the one spotting the place where Callie had spied on them, I knew she would be involved in Callie's end...
Tori is covering her ass and we know that she's used to take kids from their mother, she was the one who found Maya after all. I wonder what they are going to do with morally-challenged Tori now.
I'm still convinced that Zarek is our Fifth. Is it me or something seemed wrong with Richard Hatch's face? Lee doesn't seem to have learnt his lesson. He is so easy to play with. Where's Romo btw? I wasn't really interested in the governemnt stuff though. Between that and the Demetrius non-event, the episode – despite Callie's death – looks like a filler.
The Cylon war remains the best arc so far. Cavil is an old libidinous Cylon and Boomer is suddenly interesting again. I hope the Leobens have survived the battle...pretty Cylons must not be killed off!
Cavil reminded me of Roslin, especially when he told Boomer, speaking of the Sixes, that"they started it".
My favourite shot was the Centurion's head tilt after Six said the magic word "please". Centurions rock!
