Transcript
Laura:

Hello and welcome to Who Are You?

2

:

We're a reasonably well done sci-fi

watch cast by a couple of former

3

:

strangers, now friends who are watching

:

4

:

I'm Laura

5

:

Xhafer: I'm ja Fair.

6

:

Laura: and Jafer.

7

:

You told me you need to

talk about space real bad.

8

:

Xhafer: got it.

9

:

I'm real excited.

10

:

There was a news article

published yesterday.

11

:

Laura: Uhhuh.

12

:

Xhafer: Uh, So it's not Today News.

13

:

It's yesterday News by the University

of Cambridge who are one of the

14

:

universities doing work with

the James Webb Space Telescope.

15

:

Laura: Oh, I've heard of this thing.

16

:

Yes.

17

:

Xhafer: This is where we've gotten a

lot of our exciting space news from in

18

:

the last couple of years, is the James

19

:

Laura: Yeah, big, big news.

20

:

The James Webb.

21

:

Yeah.

22

:

Xhafer: Um, and so what the James Webb

has discovered along with our people

23

:

processing data and doing research

over at the University of Cambridge,

24

:

is they have found traces of dimethyl

sulfide and do dimethyl di sulfide in

25

:

the atmosphere of exoplanet K two 18

B, which is one of those super earth's

26

:

Laura: Okay.

27

:

Tell me about Super Earth.

28

:

Xhafer: s super earth's.

29

:

This is a planet that is, um, is it

like five times the size of earth?

30

:

Um, and it, it is, it is in a

habitable zone for its planet size.

31

:

It has water, it has continents.

32

:

It is an earth-like

planet that is very big.

33

:

Laura: Hmm.

34

:

Can we go.

35

:

Xhafer: It is quite far away in terms

of anything that we can possibly imagine

36

:

or rationalize with our human brains.

37

:

Laura: Ah, nuts.

38

:

Xhafer: but maybe eventually.

39

:

But what's cool is those two chemicals

I'm listed off, DMS and DMDS are only

40

:

known to be found as a byproduct of

microbial life and marine photoplankton.

41

:

They are not naturally occurring

chemicals without life.

42

:

So,

43

:

Laura: So what I'm hearing out of

this is that we could have space

44

:

whales, Seems like whales eat that

45

:

Xhafer: well, yeah, there

could be space whales.

46

:

Um, this is like, so the

statistical probability here.

47

:

Is they, they've reached the

three Sigma level of statistical

48

:

significance, which is something

that as statisticians we know about,

49

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

50

:

Xhafer: uh, You know,

the three sigma ranges.

51

:

Whenever you're talking about a Sigma

range, we're talking about standard

52

:

deviations listener, that's another math

term that you might be more familiar with.

53

:

Um, if you are more familiar with

math as opposed to statistics

54

:

as discipline in general.

55

:

so that means that there is a uh, to reach

this threshold, there is a 6e-05% chance

56

:

that they occurred randomly and without

life, but they're still doing or okay.

57

:

Right now we're at Three

Sigma, which is 0.3.

58

:

They need to do more observations

to make sure they get to Five

59

:

Sigma, which is effectively.

60

:

Evidence at that point.

61

:

so there uh, there's gonna be

more follow ups and results.

62

:

This is the first thing published,

so it's not definitive yet,

63

:

but it is very fucking cool.

64

:

Um,

65

:

Laura: is really cool.

66

:

Xhafer: so there might be

beyond base, like single cell

67

:

organism life on this planet,

68

:

Laura: Yeah.

69

:

Xhafer: um, which would also factor into

some great filter questions and stuff.

70

:

Um, which is actually something

that Battlestar Galactica

71

:

really fucking Dodges.

72

:

this is like a storyline slash like,

producing requirement almost to keep

73

:

the budget and set design down they

purposefully, and also to not be Star Trek

74

:

purposefully made the galaxy pretty barren

on the path that Galactica is taking.

75

:

So that way they're

76

:

Laura: doing a lot of planets.

77

:

We've had two planets

78

:

Xhafer: planets in two seasons.

79

:

Right?

80

:

Like we don't do a lot on planets.

81

:

And that's very much by design.

82

:

Laura: and I think pretty accurate

for what we're going through, right?

83

:

Like

84

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

85

:

I mean,

86

:

Laura: it's taken us humans

this long to find a planet that

87

:

we're like, ah, this one maybe

really has habitable stuff on it.

88

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

89

:

Laura: Whereas Star Trek, every week

we found a new habitable planet.

90

:

Xhafer: I mean the

91

:

Laura: And sometimes if we wanna

spice it up, it's barely habitable.

92

:

Xhafer: Yeah, I mean, to be fair to Star

Trek there the speeds at which those ships

93

:

move is so much faster than what we can

like reasonably observe as a society right

94

:

now, let alone get worry about getting to.

95

:

So they're casting a much

wider net than we can.

96

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

97

:

Xhafer: and also they only go to

those planets for the most part.

98

:

They just ignore the other ones,

99

:

Laura: Yeah.

100

:

Xhafer: except when they,

101

:

Laura: you're the Cerritos that

has to do some scanning science,

102

:

Xhafer: yeah, I mean, Voyager

goes to that uninhabited planet

103

:

to like get some raw materials.

104

:

There's a couple stories like that.

105

:

but for the most part they

only really care about

106

:

interacting with other cultures.

107

:

That's star fleet's thing.

108

:

So I wonder if there was a Regi show, if

they would just be like going to planet

109

:

scanning for Latinum and then leaving

like, oh, there's a culture there.

110

:

Can we sell them shit?

111

:

No.

112

:

They're more advanced or they don't

have anything worth selling us.

113

:

Okay.

114

:

Peace.

115

:

Nevermind.

116

:

Moving on.

117

:

Laura: yeah.

118

:

Yeah.

119

:

Well that is very cool.

120

:

Science news.

121

:

I'm so glad that we found

something out there.

122

:

Sometimes this week in, in

economics, we were joking about

123

:

the, um, the counterfactual earth.

124

:

You probably made jokes about this

in your economics classes where like,

125

:

you know, you could have two different

earths, one where you give the

126

:

treatment and the other is the control

earth, where the thing is happening.

127

:

and uh, I wanna go live on

the counterfactual earth.

128

:

Now

129

:

I wanna be on control Earth Please.

130

:

Pretty please.

131

:

Xhafer: Mm.

132

:

Yeah.

133

:

That's real.

134

:

Simulation theory vibes, which I

fucking hate, hate simulation theory.

135

:

It's so dumb, like listener if, if you're

a big subscriber of simulation theory,

136

:

I'm not here to shit in your serial.

137

:

I am here to ask, does it fucking matter?

138

:

That's all.

139

:

If it's true, there's no escaping it

and everything is exactly as it was.

140

:

30 seconds before you flat that

thought, does it fucking matter?

141

:

That's all.

142

:

It just seems like it's such a

pointless mental exercise because it

143

:

has absolutely no resolution except

anxiety, and it's just something

144

:

I refuse to let into my brain.

145

:

Laura: Hmm.

146

:

Xhafer: Anyways, we got an episode of

Battlestar Galactica to talk about.

147

:

I

148

:

Laura: sure do.

149

:

Xhafer: will rant about

simulation theory for forever.

150

:

And by that I mean I won't

because it's fucking dumb.

151

:

So let's get on, let's

get on this episode.

152

:

Laura: Yes.

153

:

Xhafer: I just I hurt somebody's

feelings that I probably like.

154

:

I'm sorry.

155

:

We got season two episode four resistance.

156

:

Laura: yes, this is a very special

week to be watching this episode.

157

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

158

:

Laura: This is uh, as

of recording, listener.

159

:

It is Easter weekend in the

year of our Lord:

160

:

Xhafer: It was a good Friday.

161

:

Laura: He has risen.

162

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

163

:

Yes.

164

:

Laura: Yes.

165

:

Daddy Adama on the fourth

episode has risen indeed.

166

:

Xhafer: mm mm.

167

:

Put up them spiritual antenna.

168

:

All right.

169

:

Yeah.

170

:

Laura: Arms up everyone.

171

:

Xhafer: He has risen, man.

172

:

So it's WrestleMania this weekend and I

don't ever remember WrestleMania being

173

:

on Easter, but if they don't do a, like

undertaker dead man walking, he has

174

:

risen bit at WrestleMania on Easter.

175

:

I am disappointed in the wwe.

176

:

I'm just gonna throw

that out the right now.

177

:

Laura: It's, it's time guys.

178

:

Yeah.

179

:

Xhafer: opportunity, right?

180

:

Laura: But we don't, we aren't

gonna get there till the end

181

:

of the episode, but it is time.

182

:

Finally.

183

:

It only took

184

:

Xhafer: Three episodes.

185

:

Laura: episodes after

186

:

Xhafer: That's the number, right?

187

:

Three episode, three days?

188

:

Yeah.

189

:

Hmm.

190

:

Laura: I We can make it three.

191

:

We can jigg it around.

192

:

Xhafer: it was four, wasn't it?

193

:

Yeah, it's,

194

:

oh, okay.

195

:

I don't

196

:

Laura: I, I think somebody had

that in their mind when they're

197

:

writing this, like Yeah, definitely.

198

:

Especially 'cause he is like wearing

a robe comes out anyway, let's not

199

:

Xhafer: it's the, the,

the shroud of Adama.

200

:

It's, it was a whole thing.

201

:

It was crazy.

202

:

All right,

203

:

Laura: I

204

:

was just about to say that

205

:

we're opening on Teel,

sweating a whole bunch.

206

:

Xhafer: Sweatiest Tiral,

207

:

Laura: So

208

:

Xhafer: he's so sweaty.

209

:

He is key in peel, sweat,

sketch, sweaty here.

210

:

Laura: So I don't know how many people I

accused of being silenced throughout this

211

:

whole episode, but it started with Mr.

212

:

Ciel.

213

:

Xhafer: I got a list from Aaron, like

214

:

Laura: Oh, you did?

215

:

He, he told you how many people

I accused of being silenced.

216

:

Xhafer: he net me told me

he posted in Spoiler town.

217

:

Laura: Oh my God.

218

:

He told everyone.

219

:

Xhafer: He didn't tell everyone.

220

:

He told everyone he wants spoilers

because we're laughing about it.

221

:

Um, but in over in Spoiler town.

222

:

I won't say why we're

laughing, but we are laughing

223

:

Laura: Well, so here's why I accused Mr.

224

:

Thiel here at the beginning of being

a silent, so sweaty bin was so fucking

225

:

sweaty and he is so fucking sweaty.

226

:

Xhafer: he is a sweaty Mahalo.

227

:

Laura: Yeah.

228

:

Yeah.

229

:

And then also, so we have sweat.

230

:

Ty is grilling him about

the whole boomer thing.

231

:

'cause we forgot that that

went down and two year old's

232

:

been gone and now he's back.

233

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

234

:

Laura: So he says he has

no idea she was asylum.

235

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

236

:

Laura: He wants his fifth

amendment rights to remain silent.

237

:

Xhafer: Ty doesn't give a fuck.

238

:

He knows that Tyro is a damn dirty

double S Did I ever tell that story?

239

:

Did I tell that story to you?

240

:

Have I told that story on Pod?

241

:

Okay, so this is the Battlestar

Galactica board game, right?

242

:

Laura: Oh, there's a

243

:

Xhafer: There's a board game.

244

:

I will, I will bring it.

245

:

Laura: Is it a spoiler free board game?

246

:

Xhafer: Um, by the time we get

there, I think we'll be okay.

247

:

Like, if, if I bring it in

August, I think it'll be okay.

248

:

Um,

249

:

Laura: Okay.

250

:

Make sure to review it carefully.

251

:

Xhafer: yeah, yeah, we will.

252

:

so there's a, it's a board game and it

starts off like everyone's on Galactica,

253

:

everyone's doing their stuff right?

254

:

And one player secretly is a cy.

255

:

Everyone draws cards.

256

:

It tells them if they're

human or cylon, right?

257

:

And when the Cy reveals themselves,

they stop being on the ship and

258

:

start doing sy stuff out, off the

ship to fuck with the players.

259

:

But you do cy, like you fuck

with the players on the ship

260

:

before you're revealed as a Cy.

261

:

And then halfway through the

game, everyone draws a second

262

:

card except for revealed Cylons.

263

:

We are playing this game at

a gathering of LARP nerds.

264

:

and Ben is with me playing this game too.

265

:

He can, he, he, so we were

there and our buddy Eddie in the

266

:

first half drew the cylon card.

267

:

Right.

268

:

But he didn't reveal himself and

so e everyone got their second card

269

:

and he pulled the second cylon card.

270

:

So he was the only one at the

table we had were expecting two.

271

:

Statistically there should have been

two, but Eddie was so we were accusing

272

:

him of being a damn dirty cylon.

273

:

That's whenever someone, we were

playing this game, everyone Oh,

274

:

you're a damn dirty s every time.

275

:

Right.

276

:

It's, you don't, you don't just

accuse someone of being a cylon.

277

:

They are a damn dirty cylon.

278

:

Laura: Yeah,

279

:

Xhafer: Yeah, And so he was the damn

dirty double cylon when he got revealed

280

:

because he had both the cylon cards.

281

:

Laura: Wow.

282

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

283

:

Laura: That's fun.

284

:

I.

285

:

Yeah.

286

:

So that's where I'm at with Tyrell At the

beginning of this episode, at least Tyrell

287

:

tries to list out his pedigree and tell

you all about himself and his parents.

288

:

Like his parents were spiritual people.

289

:

Yes.

290

:

Like one of 'em is a

priest or an oracle and

291

:

Xhafer: he served on four battle stars.

292

:

Not just the Galactica, but also the

Atlan, the Columbia, and the Pegasus.

293

:

Laura: Yeah.

294

:

So Ty does not care and

smacks the shit out of him.

295

:

And we end the scene on brief

blood drip onto the deck.

296

:

Xhafer: So dramatic.

297

:

Laura: Yes.

298

:

Also where I was saying

silent, silent, silent.

299

:

So Ty leaves and uh, is walking down

the hallway and throws his flask,

300

:

Xhafer: Oh

301

:

Laura: he immediately retrieves it.

302

:

He's not going to uh,

303

:

Xhafer: Not ready to give

304

:

Laura: And the then uh, the guards go put

Tyrell with boomer, like in the same cell.

305

:

That doesn't seem very smart to me.

306

:

Like just in general, you probably should

isolate prisoners as much as possible.

307

:

Right.

308

:

Xhafer: if you believe them to be

colluding against your interests.

309

:

Like giving.

310

:

Laura: And, and we know these silences are

super strong and if you think they're both

311

:

actually silence the strong, beefy boys,

like don't put them in together where

312

:

they could possibly rip up your shit.

313

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

314

:

Laura: Not smart.

315

:

Oh, well.

316

:

Xhafer: this, we cut over to caper yellow.

317

:

We see a bunch of other humans who

have Starbuck and Hilo in their sights

318

:

to theme survivor, count down one,

319

:

Laura: down one.

320

:

Xhafer: crash down.

321

:

It's just crash down.

322

:

This somehow hurts more than

when it drops by big numbers.

323

:

And that is a hundred percent on purpose.

324

:

Laura: Right.

325

:

Because it's like that one

you knew you met that one?

326

:

Yeah.

327

:

Wow.

328

:

I should start writing the

numbers down in my notes.

329

:

I'm usually like frantically scribbling a

sentence from before theme, during theme.

330

:

So I haven't been watching the numbers.

331

:

I'm gonna

332

:

Xhafer: do

333

:

you pause often when you do your notes?

334

:

Laura: Oh, so much.

335

:

Xhafer: Yeah, me too.

336

:

Okay.

337

:

Yeah.

338

:

I just always paused

right down the number.

339

:

Yeah.

340

:

Laura: Yeah.

341

:

I'll have to make sure I'm doing that too.

342

:

so back from theme, we're

still on Caprica yellow.

343

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

344

:

Laura: We've got star bes and Hilo kind

of arguing a little bit about directions

345

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

346

:

Laura: until somebody snaps a twig.

347

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

348

:

Yeah.

349

:

They hear some noise and they quickly

assess the situation here, and they don't

350

:

see any reflections or chrome, so they

know that they're fighting humanoid sirens

351

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

352

:

Xhafer: and they know how many

at everything very quickly.

353

:

Laura: love how we get a little

bit of dialogue from both sides.

354

:

I think from the resistance humans

and the human humans, the galactic of

355

:

humans that they're knowing both sides

that this is humanoid sirens and we've

356

:

gotta do this and, you know, whatever.

357

:

Very smart on both sides.

358

:

Xhafer: Anders is like.

359

:

Very quickly calling out.

360

:

It's all like, oh, that's weird.

361

:

You usually don't see humanoid Cys

without, you know, Chrome escorts.

362

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

363

:

Xhafer: Like, that's weird, huh?

364

:

Laura: they've seen a

lot of them apparently.

365

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

366

:

Laura: I like how I wrote they in my

notes, so I don't remember which side it

367

:

was that's talking about it, but they're

talking about the human variety of

368

:

silent isn't as tough as the battle bots.

369

:

Xhafer: says that, yeah, they're

grateful that they don't have

370

:

to waste explosive rounds.

371

:

They

372

:

Laura: Yes.

373

:

So Helos figured that out,

or Star bes figured it out.

374

:

I don't know.

375

:

Xhafer: Well, I mean, star Starbuck also

notes that they bleed, which is enjoyable.

376

:

Laura: And we just had Chief Tero

bleeding in the earlier scene.

377

:

That's all I'm saying.

378

:

Xhafer: Okay.

379

:

Yeah.

380

:

I mean, yeah, anyone who

bleeds is clearly a asylum.

381

:

This is a good bet.

382

:

Laura, you should follow this one through.

383

:

Laura: Yeah, no, I am like the

height of paranoia at this episode.

384

:

I do not know why it

has just hit real hard.

385

:

Xhafer: Like, are you just gonna watch

like three ahead When I'm on vacation?

386

:

Laura: I mean, maybe I, I don't

know if I'll have time 'cause it's

387

:

final season, but the, the spirit is

willing, the actual body may not do it.

388

:

Xhafer: Uh,

389

:

We cut over to Callie after this,

who goes to Gaia to help get

390

:

the chief free six PT points out

that the term toaster is racist.

391

:

Laura: Yeah.

392

:

She doesn't let this go in

the background the whole

393

:

Xhafer: No, she's pretty upset about it.

394

:

And she's just like, well, maybe you

would help her if she wasn't a racist.

395

:

Or are you gonna tell her to

not use that racist epitaph?

396

:

Come on guys, it's so good because a

hundred percent this is what you know.

397

:

I, I don't know.

398

:

I feel like this is pretty funny but

also very accurate because he deserves

399

:

to be called out for the bullshit.

400

:

But also this is something

that the military is like

401

:

fucking famous for constantly.

402

:

Anytime there is a war, we have some

dehumanized char to refer to them that is

403

:

totally fucking racist every single time.

404

:

Laura: Yep, yep.

405

:

And uh, GAAS is such a shithead.

406

:

He's not gonna actually call

it out or ask her to reframe.

407

:

He's just gonna try to like placate

six PT quietly through his language,

408

:

but he's not actually going to do

anything that could possibly make

409

:

another human being upset with him.

410

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

411

:

One of the best turns of like the

guy is double talk here is when,

412

:

kelly asks if he, you know, you,

you owe it to the chief to help.

413

:

And six PT at the same time is all

like, your child is half toaster.

414

:

How do you feel about that?

415

:

And he manages to answer both

questions with the, like, I, you

416

:

know, I'm overjoyed about this thing.

417

:

Like, I would do something if I could.

418

:

It, like, it answers just enough of both

questions to like, not question it at

419

:

all, but it's clearly aimed at both.

420

:

It's so good.

421

:

Laura: it is really good.

422

:

But uh, Callie uses this opportunity

to pull the blackmail card.

423

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

424

:

Laura: She'll uh, tell the truth

about what happened to crash down.

425

:

If Gais does not try to help Chief Tyrell.

426

:

Xhafer: Yep.

427

:

Gaius tells Ty that the revelation

of Boomer as a silent has allowed

428

:

him to refine the CY detector, so

there won't be any more errors.

429

:

Laura: What an ass.

430

:

Oh man.

431

:

I, I really did kind of enjoy Ty, like

being pissed off about the cylon detector.

432

:

Xhafer: should be.

433

:

Yeah.

434

:

Laura: Yeah.

435

:

Yeah.

436

:

I'm glad, I'm glad that we got some

justice for the Cylon detector.

437

:

Xhafer: He's really rude to

438

:

Laura: yeah.

439

:

T Ty also uses this opportunity to

remind him like, this is martial law

440

:

vice president, you don't exist anymore.

441

:

You better go back to being

worth something as a scientist,

442

:

Xhafer: yeah.

443

:

You thought you were gonna pull

that VP card outta your pocket,

444

:

but that is actually a monopoly.

445

:

Straight to jail card.

446

:

Laura: Ty does give him one more chance.

447

:

For some reason, I guess Gaas has

blinded him with science, um, and

448

:

he says, okay, definitive answer on

teal as six PT is also like in the

449

:

background stoking rebellion in Gaas.

450

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

451

:

After this we hear that some

ships are refusing to resupply

452

:

Galactica until democracy is

453

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

454

:

Specifically the Tillium

mining ship, which we know was

455

:

already inclined to rebellion.

456

:

Oh yeah, the refiner.

457

:

Sorry.

458

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

459

:

This is gonna be a problem real quick.

460

:

Laura: Yeah.

461

:

Xhafer: We get shit from the pilots

for missing card night as he heads

462

:

to the Bri where D follows and walks

with him, giving him some news of

463

:

the goings on in the fleet, and also

the current status of his father.

464

:

Laura: She's being really kind to update

him on how Daddy Adama's doing, and also

465

:

kind of, you know, mentions the rebellion

stuff and, oh, ties in the bottle

466

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

467

:

Just drinking away.

468

:

Laura: I wanna use this opportunity to

fair, to call your attention to the name

469

:

I have named myself for this session.

470

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

471

:

Ellen Tai.

472

:

So,

473

:

Laura: Theorized silo number two.

474

:

I have given up just hoping that Ellen

and Tai is a Cy, so she'll get come

475

:

up and someday to believing Ellen.

476

:

And Tai is a silo.

477

:

I hate her.

478

:

Xhafer: okay.

479

:

Laura: I mean, okay.

480

:

She can still be just

a really shitty human.

481

:

Really shitty humans exist.

482

:

Yeah.

483

:

Xhafer: I mean, so.

484

:

Watching the show at

this timeframe, right?

485

:

We're supposed to believe

that Ellen is a silent, right?

486

:

Like that was like, she

shows up outta nowhere.

487

:

She has a really flimsy story.

488

:

We know we can't trust Gais.

489

:

Like,

490

:

Laura: And she really sucks.

491

:

Xhafer: clearly is not having the best

interest of she humanity in general,

492

:

Laura: No,

493

:

not even Saul.

494

:

It is her own best interest at all times.

495

:

Xhafer: a hundred percent.

496

:

And so looking at all this,

it's very easy to go, well,

497

:

obviously she's a fucking s right?

498

:

Laura: Yeah.

499

:

Yeah.

500

:

Xhafer: But at the time, my

concern with that was all like, but

501

:

she's been with Saul a long time.

502

:

Like we saw her in flashbacks

with, with Adama, you know,

503

:

like 20 years ago or whatever.

504

:

Laura: I'm still not convinced

that was her, but go ahead.

505

:

Xhafer: Okay, fair enough.

506

:

No, no.

507

:

I mean, it's supposed to be

a little ambiguous, but I, I

508

:

Laura: they're, they're not making it

like, yes, she's really here, right?

509

:

Xhafer: Yeah, and so that was always

like the disqualifying factor to

510

:

me was all like, well now she's

been married to Saul for too long.

511

:

They talk about how long

they've been married, like

512

:

Laura: yeah.

513

:

Xhafer: she can't be a silent.

514

:

So

515

:

I think it's interesting that

you keep ride or die for that

516

:

because it is a character who, in

my initial watch through, I had

517

:

wholeheartedly dismissed of Eddie.

518

:

So cylon capability because of this.

519

:

Laura: Yeah.

520

:

No, I, so I, I.

521

:

Do think she could just

be a really shitty human?

522

:

I think if she's just a really shitty

human, then it's less likely that she's

523

:

gonna get the comeuppance that I want.

524

:

Xhafer: Fair.

525

:

Laura: And God, I want that comeuppance.

526

:

I don't like Ellen Ty every time

she shows up the first time in the

527

:

episode, I'm pretty sure I write

Ellen Tai is the worst and yum.

528

:

Yum.

529

:

Ryan, I totally understand

why you love Ellen Tai.

530

:

I do.

531

:

She is a chaos maniac and she is

an extremely well-written character

532

:

and I can't stop painting her.

533

:

I'm sorry.

534

:

So time rolls over his martial

law problems with Ellen

535

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

536

:

Laura: in their

537

:

Xhafer: uh, urges him to not be

diplomatic and to go for the fist

538

:

Laura: Yeah.

539

:

She's just so manipulative of this man.

540

:

She's figured out exactly how he runs

and she's gonna push all the buttons.

541

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

542

:

Caprica yellow turns into a Mexican

standoff, which I learned actually

543

:

comes from the American Mexican War and

the type of ambushes that the Mexicans

544

:

would conduct against the Americans.

545

:

Laura: Hmm.

546

:

Interesting.

547

:

I was just gonna call it a capric

standoff 'cause it is very funny

548

:

the way this thing unfolds.

549

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

550

:

We learned that these are the

Caprica Buccaneers and this scene

551

:

was written by someone who one day

hopes that their obscure baseball

552

:

statistic trivia will save their life.

553

:

That is the only possible

explanation for this.

554

:

Laura: Yeah.

555

:

This is some game called Pyramid,

which I guess we're probably gonna

556

:

learn more about throughout the

557

:

Xhafer: Uh, this is what

they play later in the show.

558

:

Laura: Yeah.

559

:

Xhafer: So the, the game that was

in the Triangle Court that has a

560

:

bunch of triangles all over it,

561

:

Laura: But I was imagining they're

probably gonna wind up doing

562

:

this a few more times maybe.

563

:

Xhafer: there's a little

bit of pyramid in the show.

564

:

Laura: Yeah.

565

:

But they like quiz each other about

the statistics until they're all

566

:

satisfied and uh, put everyone

finally puts their guns down.

567

:

Xhafer: Yep.

568

:

After this Ventor gets Rosalyn Herm

meds and some Candy Lee passes word of

569

:

the unrest as Ty orders Marines over

to every ship refusing to resupply.

570

:

Laura: But tell me if I read

this correctly, it sounds like

571

:

there aren't enough marines.

572

:

Xhafer: There are not, gada says this,

and the answer is to put pilots and

573

:

deck officers in charge of Marines

to free up more Marines to send out.

574

:

Laura: This is a bad idea.

575

:

Everything about this is bad.

576

:

And Rosalyn says as she's eating

her licorice, which Black licorice?

577

:

Yes.

578

:

No.

579

:

On this podcast.

580

:

Oh, I like black

581

:

Xhafer: Okay.

582

:

You can have it all.

583

:

I

584

:

like, yeah.

585

:

Black licorice.

586

:

Oh, it's the, it's the Anis.

587

:

I don't like Anis.

588

:

I always say I don't like poppy seed.

589

:

Jagermeister Gold, Schlager.

590

:

Um, a handful of sausages.

591

:

Anything

592

:

Laura: Oh, I don't like it in sausage.

593

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

594

:

This whole flavor profile

is a no from me dog, so.

595

:

Laura: Black licorice, like

German, black licorice.

596

:

I don't remember where I got it.

597

:

We had a German exchange student at

our school for a while that maybe

598

:

brought some, or maybe I went to

the German grocery in Tulsa, but I

599

:

got some real German black licorice.

600

:

And I remember trying it and

being like, Ugh, this sucks.

601

:

I hate it.

602

:

I'll just have another one

603

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

604

:

Laura: and maybe another one.

605

:

And yeah, a few more.

606

:

And then I was like,

oh, I think I like this.

607

:

So that's how I learned

to love the licorice.

608

:

Xhafer: I love the, like the

Australian soft licorice,

609

:

Laura: Yes, we like that too.

610

:

Xhafer: the strawberry.

611

:

Oh yeah.

612

:

Gimme that.

613

:

That's good shit.

614

:

Laura: I like the black one too.

615

:

It's good.

616

:

I'll take 'em all.

617

:

Xhafer: You know,

618

:

Laura: Thanks Ryan.

619

:

Xhafer: I don't think I've had a black

licorice in a very, very long time because

620

:

every time I do, I find it revolting.

621

:

Maybe it's time to try again.

622

:

I try to do that with my palate when

there's some things I know that I avoid

623

:

actively, that I really just don't enjoy.

624

:

Every once in a while I'll make a go of it

just to be all like, okay, still hate it.

625

:

Laura: Hmm.

626

:

Maybe try the Australian

627

:

Xhafer: myself.

628

:

Okay, well that would require buying

a bag, which I don't want to do.

629

:

Laura: Or you can just, do you

guys have sprouts up there?

630

:

Just go to Sprouts and

get some out of the bin.

631

:

That's not weird at all.

632

:

Xhafer: Sample, not for me.

633

:

Buy something else.

634

:

Laura: Yes, yes.

635

:

Okay.

636

:

So we send in the Marines and a

riot breaks out on the Gideon.

637

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

638

:

The coffee ship, not the coffee ship.

639

:

Laura: Anything but the coffee ship.

640

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

641

:

Laura: you think they got in there.

642

:

Xhafer: I mean, if the ship's full

of it and they're roasting it all

643

:

the time, it's the best smelling

ship in the fleet hands down.

644

:

Laura: Can you imagine your clothes

smelling like that all the time though?

645

:

Xhafer: Oh yeah.

646

:

That'd be great.

647

:

Laura: Oh man.

648

:

I don't know.

649

:

I want my clothes to

not smell like anything.

650

:

That's what I need.

651

:

Xhafer: Ugh.

652

:

Like, I mean.

653

:

I don't know, maybe it's

just like, listener.

654

:

You can't see the side

profile I'm giving right now.

655

:

But the Chanas Thena has

some vacuum behind it.

656

:

I have a, a very strong and sensitive

sense of smell, much more so than

657

:

anyone else that I have ever met.

658

:

it was a game in college.

659

:

We would be walking by the cafeteria and

I could just from outside of the building

660

:

tell you what the specials were that day.

661

:

I, I smell when people are sick,

like not just obviously sick.

662

:

I can tell when people are

sick usually before they know.

663

:

Laura: Uhhuh,

664

:

Xhafer: yeah, no, it's, it's

real strong, the sense of

665

:

Laura: have you heard, speaking of people

who can smell illness of, there's a,

666

:

there's a lady that can smell Parkinson's

667

:

Xhafer: Oh,

668

:

Laura: on people and they're trying

to figure out that so they can,

669

:

you know, work on better detection.

670

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

671

:

Laura: But yeah, she, she like

thought her husband smelled

672

:

really bad for a while and then.

673

:

He was diagnosed with Parkinson's and they

went to a Parkinson's like, support group,

674

:

and she was like, holy crap,

everyone in here smells bad.

675

:

And uh, that's, that was how like she

connected with doctors and was like,

676

:

I can smell this for some reason.

677

:

Xhafer: Huh?

678

:

Laura: So interesting.

679

:

Xhafer: I don't think, I mean, mine's

usually just like, I dunno, people are

680

:

a little, it's a distinct smell when

681

:

Laura: Yeah, like when you get a

fever, you're a little sweaty and

682

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

683

:

It's, I dunno, it's hard to describe.

684

:

I would not attribute it to a

specific disease ever though.

685

:

That's so interesting to me.

686

:

Laura: Yeah.

687

:

Xhafer: Anyways.

688

:

Okay.

689

:

We're on the coffee ship.

690

:

We got back professionals.

691

:

Um,

692

:

Laura: Yeah,

693

:

Xhafer: I would not be

upset about this at all.

694

:

Like this summer I worked at

the brewery and I would just

695

:

smell like wart all the time.

696

:

Ugh.

697

:

Oh, so good.

698

:

Just whenever I would help out

there, I'd come through and it's

699

:

just on your clothes for days.

700

:

Whenever I brew, it's just

on me for a couple days.

701

:

I love that I was smelling like campfire.

702

:

I'll smell campfire on myself

for like a week, usually.

703

:

Laura: yeah.

704

:

Xhafer: Love that.

705

:

Anyways for

706

:

Lee and Rosalyn.

707

:

Laura: we didn't.

708

:

We didn't talk about how many people got

709

:

Xhafer: Oh, oh yeah.

710

:

They killed four civilians.

711

:

We should probably not

gloss over that casually.

712

:

Laura: Yeah, let's.

713

:

Xhafer: It's martial law.

714

:

It's serious business.

715

:

Yeah.

716

:

So, uh, when this riot breaks out,

someone's throwing coffee, one

717

:

of the Marines fires a shot and

they end up killing four people

718

:

on the coffee roasting ship.

719

:

Laura: I, I believe there were more

bullets flying around and we have

720

:

some injured people that I don't

know if they get taken to Galactica

721

:

or whatever, but there's more than

just four people shot, I'm sure.

722

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

723

:

Four.

724

:

Four is the number that coddle gives

725

:

Laura: Yes, four.

726

:

Four is definitely the, what is it?

727

:

Fatalities.

728

:

Um, but yeah, in sick Bay, Ty

wonders how this could have happened.

729

:

How did four people

730

:

die?

731

:

And coddles just like,

'cause you're a dipshit.

732

:

Xhafer: Yep.

733

:

Laura: I, I really do like doc Coddle.

734

:

I see where it comes from now.

735

:

I

736

:

was like, Yeah.

737

:

give it to him.

738

:

Xhafer: Coddles so good.

739

:

For Lee and Roslyn, this is the

last straw they have to escape to

740

:

rally against this tyranny, man.

741

:

You ever think anyone asked

Roslyn about her emails

742

:

Laura: Probably Tom Zerek.

743

:

Totally, totally.

744

:

Tom Zerek.

745

:

Uh, Yeah, but she, she has a great point.

746

:

She says, you know,

the Cys are doing this.

747

:

They're tearing us apart so that

they can better pick us off.

748

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

749

:

Laura: Like if they can

break us up, we're easier to

750

:

Xhafer: Oh, for

751

:

Laura: rid of.

752

:

And she, she only sees the way

out of getting out of here to

753

:

try to keep things together.

754

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

755

:

Laura: And I, I mean, I kind of

identify with that and get it, but

756

:

also like it is just going to Enrage,

Galactica, and Galactica is the.

757

:

Ship with all the guns.

758

:

Xhafer: It is the ship with the guns.

759

:

Laura: So Lee tells her that he

can get them to a hangar but they

760

:

need to get off the ship and hide.

761

:

And Rosalyn believes she

can get them off the ship.

762

:

So each of them thinks they

can do a piece of this, and Lee

763

:

thinks he knows where to hide.

764

:

And I clocked this instantly.

765

:

I knew exactly where we were going.

766

:

Xhafer: Oh yeah, yeah, for sure.

767

:

uh, after this tying Ellen fight, fuck

768

:

Laura: Uh,

769

:

Xhafer: The,

770

:

Laura: well first we have a

bit of fair bit of whining.

771

:

Let's not gloss over that.

772

:

Xhafer: well they fight

and then they fuck.

773

:

Laura: you.

774

:

Well, they tie wines and then they fight.

775

:

He blames her for his bad decisions,

which yes, she was manipulating

776

:

you, but yes, you fell for it.

777

:

You dumb fuck, like.

778

:

Xhafer: He is the worst.

779

:

She's the worst.

780

:

I hate all this

781

:

Laura: Yep.

782

:

Yep.

783

:

And you know why I hate it so much, Ryan?

784

:

Because it's so real.

785

:

Xhafer: you love democracy.

786

:

Yeah.

787

:

Laura: Yeah.

788

:

I don't wanna see democracy

taken down by two dip shits.

789

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

790

:

Laura: Hmm.

791

:

Xhafer: GAAS fucks with ti old to

get information from Boomer here.

792

:

There are eight silences in the fleet.

793

:

Laura: Which we already do, right?

794

:

Well, okay.

795

:

Xhafer: It is, it is an

important number for the silence.

796

:

Laura: yes, we knew that there are

eight different models of cylon.

797

:

Right.

798

:

Well, okay.

799

:

But we, we know of four,

800

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

801

:

Laura: like we already had four

in our mind and we saw the note

802

:

in, was it at the end of the.

803

:

Xhafer: The pi,

804

:

Laura: Uh,

805

:

Xhafer: miniseries.

806

:

Yeah.

807

:

Laura: That said, there are 12.

808

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

809

:

Laura: So if we did a little math in

our heads, we know there are eight left.

810

:

Xhafer: I just read about

that in the making of book,

811

:

that the reason that they put that in

there was specifically because that

812

:

Ron d Moore was just coming off of DS

nine with the change links where anyone

813

:

could be one, and he very specifically

wanted to put the 12 cylons in as a story

814

:

crafting limit on himself to not just let

815

:

anyone be a silent.

816

:

Yeah.

817

:

He had to make it count every time because

he knew that there was a limited number.

818

:

Laura: Yeah.

819

:

That's smart.

820

:

That's smart.

821

:

I really want that to pay

off at some point of who Put

822

:

that goddamn note in there.

823

:

You don't have to say if it does or not.

824

:

I just really want it to.

825

:

Xhafer: I think I asked Spoiler

chat about it and I got an answer.

826

:

Laura: Okay.

827

:

Okay.

828

:

Yeah, so we kind of already knew like

there was the number eight out there

829

:

that wasn't anything new to the audience.

830

:

But she does tell him specifically

there are eight in the fleet.

831

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

832

:

Laura: They may or may

not be different models.

833

:

Ofcy, you could have some

duplicates out there.

834

:

Like we went sort of had two Doral.

835

:

I don't know.

836

:

That was kind of underwhelming for

me 'cause I was like, well, yeah,

837

:

duh, I can do a, a subtraction.

838

:

Xhafer: I can do maths.

839

:

full disclosure, I did not check

this for accuracy, the number eight.

840

:

I don't remember if it's accurate or not.

841

:

For right now,

842

:

Laura: oh, like that are in

843

:

Xhafer: check.

844

:

Yeah, I'd have to go and check.

845

:

But

846

:

uh,

847

:

Laura: Yeah, I, I, um,

848

:

I wasn't sure if she was actually

accessing something or not, or doing

849

:

what tortured people do and just saying

a thing So you stop torturing them.

850

:

Xhafer: that is the real question.

851

:

Laura: Yeah.

852

:

He thinks he's like torturing her

subconscious to pull it out so

853

:

that, you know, he can get it.

854

:

And I don't know what Gais thinks he's

gonna do exactly with that information.

855

:

But he wants to know.

856

:

Gais always wants to know.

857

:

Xhafer: like I get that you,

you put this here for like.

858

:

The advancement of the story, right?

859

:

You put it here for some drama, you put

it here, you know, to like show that

860

:

Boomer has strong feelings for the chief.

861

:

So that way at the end of the episode,

when she tells him that she loves

862

:

him, it not, doesn't necessarily

ring as hollow, that she's willing

863

:

to betray Hercy for him, you

864

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

865

:

Xhafer: is why you do this.

866

:

But also like of anyone

on earth to do this.

867

:

Gaius is the guy who literally figured

out how to identify Cylons and then

868

:

decided that he didn't want to know

869

:

Laura: Uhhuh.

870

:

Xhafer: the fuck is he asking for?

871

:

Like is if, if, if they had told us

that Geis was secretly keeping track.

872

:

Like, I want to know, but I'm

not gonna tell anyone the truth.

873

:

I'm gonna say everyone passes

instead of rewriting the program so

874

:

that even he doesn't know, which is

what they explicitly say he does.

875

:

This would make sense because then

he would know when he found them.

876

:

All

877

:

right.

878

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

879

:

Xhafer: The fuck does this matter

880

:

Laura: Not sure what's going on

here, except that we need another

881

:

scene of Chief Terell must suffer

because he is also Chief O'Brien.

882

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

883

:

Uh, We meet the resistance on

Caprica thir, currently 53 Strong.

884

:

Laura: oh.

885

:

Yeah.

886

:

Didn't we lose a whole bunch of

people a couple episodes ago?

887

:

These people could be

really handy, couldn't they?

888

:

Xhafer: Yeah, it's a bunch of people.

889

:

Laura: 53.

890

:

Xhafer: Rosalyn goes to Doc Coddle

for help getting clearance to leave

891

:

the ship as Lee works with de.

892

:

To get the causeway that

they need to move through.

893

:

Closed GAA notices some weird calm

traffic and asks Dee about it.

894

:

She denies knowing anything.

895

:

Laura: Uhhuh.

896

:

This is very interesting too, because

he's giving her a chance, like.

897

:

You can come clean to me

898

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

899

:

Laura: Everything should be

done according to our rules.

900

:

Doa, and she's like,

nothing's being done, sir.

901

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

902

:

Laura: Yeah.

903

:

Billy also goes to ask the

corporal for a request.

904

:

Uh, And Lee visits Daddy Adama

to preemptively apologize.

905

:

Xhafer: DEMA.

906

:

Dad, goodbye.

907

:

That tea.

908

:

Laura: Goodbye.

909

:

Daddy.

910

:

I love you, daddy.

911

:

And Adama's hand twitches after Lee.

912

:

Let's go.

913

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

914

:

Another deckhand we've seen a couple of

times that I forgot the name of because

915

:

I thought it was Ionis, but he's dead.

916

:

Gives Callie hell and

she gives him hell back.

917

:

Laura: Yeah, she's scrappy now.

918

:

We're fighting.

919

:

She throws some punches.

920

:

Xhafer: She has grown from

her experience on cobal.

921

:

Laura: Is it growth or is it trauma?

922

:

Xhafer: Well, we'll find out

by the end of the episode.

923

:

Laura: Indeed.

924

:

Yeah.

925

:

UAA makes one more little

quick visit to Lee.

926

:

Just a quick hallway chat says that she

has everything set and she's gotta go.

927

:

And then one of the pilots

it was this racetrack,

928

:

Xhafer: Um,

929

:

Laura: stops Lee, because

she needs some help with

930

:

Xhafer: I think that's race track.

931

:

Yeah.

932

:

'cause hotdog is in space.

933

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

934

:

Xhafer: uh, Is Eddie Olmos?

935

:

Edward James Olmos,

936

:

Laura: Right?

937

:

Yeah.

938

:

Yeah.

939

:

And this was definitely a lady,

940

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

941

:

Laura: So someone punches

the corporal out, Venner.

942

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

943

:

Laura: And it looks like they're

kidnapping, Rosalyn, but you

944

:

know, they're all just leaving.

945

:

But they get stopped by

a marine to commercial.

946

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

947

:

The drummer.

948

:

Laura: Ugh.

949

:

But Rosalyn has a speech, she's

got a speech for everything.

950

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

951

:

Just got one in the chamber here, no

pun intended as she convinces this

952

:

marine to not shoot the president.

953

:

Laura: Mm-hmm.

954

:

She didn't exactly stand aside.

955

:

Like she, she was like, you can

stand aside or you can shoot me.

956

:

She didn't stand aside.

957

:

But when Rosalyn moved the

gun, she didn't move it back.

958

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

959

:

Laura: She does not shoot.

960

:

But surprise twist,

961

:

Xhafer: Hmm.

962

:

Laura: so interesting.

963

:

Billy tells Rosalyn he

can't come with her.

964

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

965

:

Laura: He can't support the

insurgency this is gonna cause,

966

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

967

:

He's not gonna support the violence y'all.

968

:

Which, you know, that's, that's a path.

969

:

Laura: Yeah, I don't, I don't know.

970

:

There's no right paths in any of this.

971

:

It seems like we won't know until

we're looking at them from the future,

972

:

what was right and what was wrong.

973

:

Xhafer: That is how it goes sometimes.

974

:

Speaking of going, everyone gets

on this raptor and takes off just

975

:

before CIC finds out Ty has hotdog

fire some warning shots, but orders

976

:

hotdog to not shoot down the raptor.

977

:

Laura: Yeah.

978

:

Ultimately, he can't do it.

979

:

He cannot kill Daddy Adama's

actual flesh and blood sun.

980

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

981

:

gada lies to Ty about

off the book Comms Here.

982

:

A Sparing Duala.

983

:

Laura: yeah.

984

:

Ty quickly figures out

like, wait a second.

985

:

They could not have gotten this far

without inside help and wants to know

986

:

like, where are the, where are the calls?

987

:

You know, GA has got nothing.

988

:

He isn't going to sell AWA out.

989

:

So I mean, he must feel empathetic

to the president in some way.

990

:

I don't think it could be just like,

oh, I don't want to get Dee in trouble.

991

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

992

:

Gada is just a simp for resistance.

993

:

Laura: Mm.

994

:

Xhafer: Whenever Gada sees a resistance,

he's like, I want to be there.

995

:

Laura: But I'm here stuck in the

military chain of command and

996

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

997

:

Laura: whoop.

998

:

Xhafer: He, he's the, he's the boss

at the job who is all like, it'd be

999

:

great if you guys unionized, knowing

that he can't be a part of it.

:

00:44:00,269 --> 00:44:01,949

Just like, Hey, it'd be great.

:

00:44:02,009 --> 00:44:03,119

You know, do your thing.

:

00:44:03,119 --> 00:44:04,889

You know, I'd, I'll be over here.

:

00:44:05,099 --> 00:44:06,899

I can't start it for you.

:

00:44:07,979 --> 00:44:08,369

Laura: Uhhuh.

:

00:44:09,119 --> 00:44:09,539

Yeah.

:

00:44:10,199 --> 00:44:14,519

He is not about this Ty command.

:

00:44:15,149 --> 00:44:16,349

I mean, rightfully so.

:

00:44:16,349 --> 00:44:18,059

Ty is not good at this.

:

00:44:18,839 --> 00:44:24,137

He's just not, and they're doing

him a favor really, if they

:

00:44:24,137 --> 00:44:25,667

can get him out of command.

:

00:44:26,944 --> 00:44:31,354

So the Raptor makes for cloud

nine, cloud nine's our little

:

00:44:31,354 --> 00:44:33,604

transportation hub kind of thing.

:

00:44:34,154 --> 00:44:37,844

And of course Lee called

Tom Zarik for help.

:

00:44:38,369 --> 00:44:38,969

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:44:39,764 --> 00:44:42,524

Laura: The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

:

00:44:43,709 --> 00:44:44,609

Xhafer: Those are words

:

00:44:45,314 --> 00:44:50,564

Laura: So Rosalyn has to kind of hold

her nose a bit and work with Tom's Eric.

:

00:44:51,059 --> 00:44:53,669

Xhafer: not pleased,

but we'll deal with it.

:

00:44:54,494 --> 00:44:58,987

Laura: Yeah, I think Lee has a good point.

:

00:44:59,077 --> 00:45:02,647

I, I'm going to really restrain

myself from saying that

:

00:45:02,707 --> 00:45:04,747

anyone is right in the show.

:

00:45:04,747 --> 00:45:07,477

'cause I don't think

anyone is actually right.

:

00:45:08,902 --> 00:45:10,372

Xhafer: Yeah, that's fair.

:

00:45:10,937 --> 00:45:12,407

Laura: But he has a point.

:

00:45:13,668 --> 00:45:15,828

Xhafer: After this we go back

to Caprica, where Starbuck

:

00:45:15,828 --> 00:45:17,358

and Anders play some pyramid.

:

00:45:18,270 --> 00:45:18,690

Laura: Mm-hmm.

:

00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:19,330

Yeah.

:

00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:20,170

Yeah.

:

00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:24,195

It's a very close contact

in this pyramid game

:

00:45:24,510 --> 00:45:28,410

Xhafer: She gives them shit for

prioritizing, building a pyramid square

:

00:45:28,410 --> 00:45:32,610

or whatever they, pyramid, triangle,

probably whatever the field is.

:

00:45:33,780 --> 00:45:36,840

It's all like, why'd you

guys spend time doing this?

:

00:45:36,900 --> 00:45:37,950

Of all things?

:

00:45:38,745 --> 00:45:41,565

Laura: When obviously that's

what they were going to do.

:

00:45:41,655 --> 00:45:44,115

Like that's how they know how to live.

:

00:45:45,570 --> 00:45:46,800

Xhafer: It's just sports bros.

:

00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:47,880

Being sports bros.

:

00:45:48,405 --> 00:45:48,645

Laura: Yeah.

:

00:45:48,645 --> 00:45:52,305

She tells Anders that she played,

but a bum knee took her out.

:

00:45:52,755 --> 00:46:00,135

And I'm like, is that the bum knee

that happened during the show or did

:

00:46:00,135 --> 00:46:01,995

that, did she actually have a bum knee?

:

00:46:01,995 --> 00:46:04,635

And then that also

happened during the show.

:

00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,620

Xhafer: So has someone with a bum knee.

:

00:46:08,260 --> 00:46:08,610

Laura: Uhhuh

:

00:46:09,090 --> 00:46:10,530

Xhafer: Let me tell you

a bit how this goes.

:

00:46:10,530 --> 00:46:14,550

Sometimes when you have a, when you

have a strong knee and a weak knee,

:

00:46:15,150 --> 00:46:18,825

what ends up happening is you end

up overlying on your strong knee.

:

00:46:19,830 --> 00:46:21,630

Which then makes it prone to injury.

:

00:46:22,110 --> 00:46:25,650

And then what can happen is your

good knee becomes your worse knee.

:

00:46:26,505 --> 00:46:27,105

Laura: Yeah.

:

00:46:27,930 --> 00:46:28,200

Xhafer: And then

:

00:46:28,305 --> 00:46:28,605

Laura: Now you

:

00:46:28,650 --> 00:46:30,510

Xhafer: knee becomes your okay knee.

:

00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:32,640

And your good knee is your bad knee.

:

00:46:32,670 --> 00:46:36,000

And eventually your good knee, your

bad knee heals up enough where it

:

00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,890

becomes your good knee and then you're

relying on that too much and it's

:

00:46:40,890 --> 00:46:45,570

already injury prone because it's your

bum knee and then you're just fucked.

:

00:46:46,350 --> 00:46:46,500

Laura: Yeah.

:

00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:50,940

Xhafer: So it could, I mean, I've had

this happen where I've had my good

:

00:46:50,940 --> 00:46:57,210

knee become my bad knee, become my good

knee, and I've had my bad knee become

:

00:46:57,210 --> 00:46:59,160

my good knee, become my bad knee again.

:

00:46:59,850 --> 00:47:03,420

So it could be that, it could have

been an old injury, aggravated,

:

00:47:04,290 --> 00:47:04,470

Laura: Mm-hmm.

:

00:47:05,010 --> 00:47:08,580

Xhafer: um, 'cause Lord knows

I've done that to myself enough,

:

00:47:09,180 --> 00:47:10,890

just falling sometimes.

:

00:47:12,210 --> 00:47:15,903

Laura: But hers doesn't keep her

from putting up a good show and

:

00:47:16,263 --> 00:47:19,053

all of this excess sexual tension.

:

00:47:19,428 --> 00:47:20,358

Xhafer: Ooh.

:

00:47:21,168 --> 00:47:23,058

Ooh.

:

00:47:23,133 --> 00:47:24,363

Laura: Yeah.

:

00:47:24,663 --> 00:47:26,973

So Tyrell gets released.

:

00:47:27,243 --> 00:47:29,883

Gaas has managed to clear him.

:

00:47:29,883 --> 00:47:31,863

I guess we don't really.

:

00:47:32,700 --> 00:47:35,310

We don't really like confirm that

:

00:47:35,700 --> 00:47:36,090

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:47:36,150 --> 00:47:38,880

The guy just says he's good and

he's got the silent detector,

:

00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:39,930

so it doesn't matter anymore.

:

00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:44,640

Laura: and for some reason Ty

will accept this and we don't

:

00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:47,190

know if he actually tested Tiro.

:

00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:47,730

Xhafer: Nope.

:

00:47:48,233 --> 00:47:48,773

Laura: Nope.

:

00:47:49,272 --> 00:47:54,912

Six PT is like reaching through the

bars to caress him as he talks to Tyre.

:

00:47:55,182 --> 00:47:58,182

Xhafer: And he like holds her

hand on his own chest kind of

:

00:47:58,182 --> 00:47:59,952

when she's not in the scene.

:

00:48:00,502 --> 00:48:00,922

Yeah,

:

00:48:01,132 --> 00:48:03,052

Laura: he's just like caressing himself.

:

00:48:03,622 --> 00:48:04,072

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:48:05,122 --> 00:48:07,792

Laura: It doesn't read

as caressing, but yeah,

:

00:48:07,942 --> 00:48:08,482

Xhafer: Knowing,

:

00:48:08,512 --> 00:48:11,002

Laura: like touching himself.

:

00:48:11,002 --> 00:48:15,802

But I thought that was interesting

that we have our silent behind the bars

:

00:48:16,882 --> 00:48:17,782

touching him.

:

00:48:17,842 --> 00:48:19,492

That seems artistic.

:

00:48:19,927 --> 00:48:20,377

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:48:20,437 --> 00:48:27,337

I wonder if that's saying something

about maybe a six and some foreshadowing.

:

00:48:28,057 --> 00:48:28,627

Laura: Yeah.

:

00:48:29,557 --> 00:48:30,097

Hmm.

:

00:48:30,967 --> 00:48:31,747

Interesting.

:

00:48:31,777 --> 00:48:34,117

Xhafer: did just meet these

resistance humans who know so

:

00:48:34,117 --> 00:48:36,007

much about the humanoid silence.

:

00:48:36,513 --> 00:48:36,753

Laura: oh

:

00:48:36,813 --> 00:48:37,623

no.

:

00:48:37,683 --> 00:48:38,133

Xhafer: hmm.

:

00:48:38,193 --> 00:48:38,673

Laura: hmm.

:

00:48:38,703 --> 00:48:39,093

Xhafer: hmm.

:

00:48:39,643 --> 00:48:44,443

Laura: He also tells Tyrell that Boomer

is going to be moved and held for testing,

:

00:48:45,043 --> 00:48:45,403

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:48:46,513 --> 00:48:47,593

Yeah.

:

00:48:47,593 --> 00:48:49,663

She's gonna be experimented on.

:

00:48:50,413 --> 00:48:54,403

Laura: And I guess we saw when

the Kelly's pick and fights with

:

00:48:54,403 --> 00:48:58,303

the other engineers that they

were building like a smaller cage.

:

00:48:58,993 --> 00:48:59,323

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

:

00:48:59,833 --> 00:49:04,333

Laura: And she was like hassling

them about, are you gonna put

:

00:49:04,333 --> 00:49:05,863

Tyrell in that thing or something?

:

00:49:05,863 --> 00:49:06,313

I don't know.

:

00:49:06,313 --> 00:49:10,903

I, but they, they were working on this

earlier in the episode and now that

:

00:49:10,903 --> 00:49:12,823

seems to be where Boomer is headed.

:

00:49:13,273 --> 00:49:13,633

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:49:14,143 --> 00:49:17,653

Ellen gives Ty shit as

Bill comes into the room.

:

00:49:18,010 --> 00:49:21,640

Laura: Yeah, she shapes up real

quick when Daddy Adama shows up.

:

00:49:21,715 --> 00:49:23,575

Xhafer: DAMA is here.

:

00:49:24,220 --> 00:49:24,490

Laura: Yeah.

:

00:49:24,490 --> 00:49:31,930

She's like berating Saul and then puts

on her best military wife persona.

:

00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:34,750

The second daddy Adama

walks in in his bathrobe

:

00:49:35,275 --> 00:49:35,695

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:49:37,015 --> 00:49:42,055

He is immediately empathetic to Ty

before he even knows the details.

:

00:49:42,055 --> 00:49:44,755

Ty's just like, I fucked things up so bad.

:

00:49:45,145 --> 00:49:49,015

Like, you don't even, you don't even

know how bad this, I've fucked things up.

:

00:49:49,165 --> 00:49:53,395

He's all like, yeah, but no one

else here besides me understands

:

00:49:53,395 --> 00:49:54,685

the pressure you were under.

:

00:49:55,420 --> 00:49:55,840

Laura: yeah,

:

00:49:56,395 --> 00:49:57,025

Xhafer: I get it.

:

00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:57,490

Laura: me.

:

00:49:58,270 --> 00:49:59,920

You can tell your dad anything.

:

00:49:59,920 --> 00:50:01,360

We can work this out sport.

:

00:50:01,585 --> 00:50:03,025

Xhafer: We're gonna

work this out together,

:

00:50:03,675 --> 00:50:04,095

Laura: Mm-hmm.

:

00:50:05,050 --> 00:50:07,690

Oh, but also, where is my real son?

:

00:50:08,035 --> 00:50:08,485

Xhafer: Oh yeah.

:

00:50:09,805 --> 00:50:10,795

PS where are we at?

:

00:50:14,569 --> 00:50:15,734

Oh man.

:

00:50:15,734 --> 00:50:19,244

Speaking of Adama's sons, I was

reading about the original battle

:

00:50:19,244 --> 00:50:22,484

startle Acta and fucking Springfield.

:

00:50:22,574 --> 00:50:27,284

Played Zama in the original

Battlestar Galactica, like

:

00:50:27,284 --> 00:50:29,054

Jesse's girl Rick Springfield,

:

00:50:30,269 --> 00:50:31,649

Laura: That's great.

:

00:50:31,739 --> 00:50:32,519

I like that.

:

00:50:34,379 --> 00:50:36,089

Why didn't we bring Rick Springfield back?

:

00:50:36,704 --> 00:50:36,884

Xhafer: right?

:

00:50:38,317 --> 00:50:42,547

Fucking Fred Astaire was

Starbucks dad in the original.

:

00:50:44,092 --> 00:50:44,692

Laura: Hold on.

:

00:50:44,692 --> 00:50:47,362

I'm just Googling If Rick

Springfield was dead,

:

00:50:50,422 --> 00:50:51,682

Xhafer: No spoilers.

:

00:50:52,649 --> 00:50:55,829

Laura: uh, Appears to still be alive, so.

:

00:50:55,859 --> 00:50:56,339

Okay.

:

00:50:56,519 --> 00:50:57,269

Could have done that.

:

00:50:57,869 --> 00:50:58,349

Xhafer: All right.

:

00:50:58,849 --> 00:51:02,179

We get to Boomer getting

escorted to her new cell.

:

00:51:02,449 --> 00:51:07,459

Crowds are taunting and jeering as

Callie comes out of the woodwork.

:

00:51:07,609 --> 00:51:08,689

And shes her.

:

00:51:09,329 --> 00:51:11,669

She dies in tyre's arms.

:

00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:14,219

Her last words, she loves him.

:

00:51:15,269 --> 00:51:19,649

The show ends with a shot similar

to when we saw earlier this time.

:

00:51:19,649 --> 00:51:22,379

It's boomer's blood dripping down.

:

00:51:23,129 --> 00:51:24,719

Laura: Boop, on the deck.

:

00:51:25,889 --> 00:51:29,159

You wanna know my last

silent call for this episode,

:

00:51:29,399 --> 00:51:29,759

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:51:30,899 --> 00:51:31,409

Laura: Cali.

:

00:51:32,429 --> 00:51:32,879

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:51:33,749 --> 00:51:40,289

Laura: I was like, man, the this is, this

is the 3D chess that we're playing here.

:

00:51:40,589 --> 00:51:45,539

We had chief two yearold get

manipulated by the one cylon who

:

00:51:45,539 --> 00:51:48,029

didn't know she was a cylon lady.

:

00:51:48,809 --> 00:51:54,029

And now we're gonna shoot that

cylon with our other cylon, and now

:

00:51:54,029 --> 00:51:55,619

she's gonna manipulate tear old.

:

00:51:56,894 --> 00:52:04,414

Xhafer: So, the list I'm looking at

that Aaron sent over was Ellen, Anders,

:

00:52:05,569 --> 00:52:06,499

Laura: Oh, definitely.

:

00:52:06,559 --> 00:52:07,069

Yeah.

:

00:52:07,474 --> 00:52:10,054

Xhafer: Callie, and Rosalyn.

:

00:52:11,149 --> 00:52:11,629

Laura: Yes.

:

00:52:11,629 --> 00:52:11,839

Yeah.

:

00:52:11,839 --> 00:52:12,229

Yeah.

:

00:52:12,987 --> 00:52:15,507

So I think I even said the Anders to you.

:

00:52:15,567 --> 00:52:20,817

Didn't I send a, send you a picture from

the Discord where you, you shared how

:

00:52:20,817 --> 00:52:22,767

someone could access Battlestar Galactica

:

00:52:23,577 --> 00:52:23,817

and

:

00:52:23,952 --> 00:52:27,012

Xhafer: off of Prime, which will have

happened by the time this episode airs.

:

00:52:27,012 --> 00:52:29,832

So I hope you found a way

to watch Battle Star y'all.

:

00:52:30,612 --> 00:52:30,902

Laura: Yeah.

:

00:52:31,452 --> 00:52:35,832

The cover art for that little

screenshot that you were

:

00:52:35,832 --> 00:52:36,102

sharing,

:

00:52:36,147 --> 00:52:36,387

Xhafer: was.

:

00:52:36,387 --> 00:52:37,017

It was the last

:

00:52:37,152 --> 00:52:41,112

Laura: famous Last Supper one, and it's,

it's cropped, so not everybody's in it.

:

00:52:41,112 --> 00:52:45,552

But I was looking at Starbuck

and Anders not having quite

:

00:52:45,552 --> 00:52:48,282

met Anders yet, but I circled.

:

00:52:48,987 --> 00:52:52,467

His picture and I was like, this

motherfucker right here, canoodling.

:

00:52:52,467 --> 00:52:54,087

Starbuck is definitely a silent.

:

00:52:54,957 --> 00:52:58,467

Xhafer: So I'm not gonna

confirm or deny the status of

:

00:52:58,467 --> 00:52:59,787

any of these five characters is

:

00:52:59,787 --> 00:53:05,577

cys, but I will say that two of these

characters end up in a relationship

:

00:53:06,512 --> 00:53:06,932

Laura: Mm-hmm.

:

00:53:07,497 --> 00:53:08,517

Xhafer: just 'cause that's fun.

:

00:53:09,537 --> 00:53:09,777

Laura: Yeah.

:

00:53:10,047 --> 00:53:13,017

Well, I mean, I was kind of

spoiled on the, the Anders Star

:

00:53:13,017 --> 00:53:14,517

beast thing, but I mean, it was

:

00:53:14,952 --> 00:53:15,162

Xhafer: Oh no.

:

00:53:15,162 --> 00:53:17,892

Two of the characters

from your five silence,

:

00:53:18,642 --> 00:53:22,002

two two of them end up in a relationship.

:

00:53:22,557 --> 00:53:23,487

Laura: Like together,

:

00:53:23,622 --> 00:53:23,922

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:53:26,142 --> 00:53:27,762

No names, no details.

:

00:53:28,692 --> 00:53:29,022

Just think

:

00:53:29,127 --> 00:53:30,447

Laura: I'm trying to

remember my whole list.

:

00:53:30,447 --> 00:53:30,627

No.

:

00:53:30,777 --> 00:53:31,077

Okay.

:

00:53:31,797 --> 00:53:32,247

Anyway.

:

00:53:33,117 --> 00:53:37,497

Yeah, no, I, I, at the end,

Erin was like, wow, you are

:

00:53:37,497 --> 00:53:39,267

getting like really out there.

:

00:53:39,267 --> 00:53:40,377

And I was like, no.

:

00:53:42,252 --> 00:53:48,252

Callie like this is, this is how you get

the, the defective silo outta the way.

:

00:53:48,372 --> 00:53:49,992

Like she wasn't working right.

:

00:53:49,992 --> 00:53:52,422

And they're about to be

experimenting on her.

:

00:53:52,422 --> 00:53:57,492

So we just have the other silo shoot

her real quick and now she can slip

:

00:53:57,492 --> 00:53:58,812

in there and manipulate two year.

:

00:53:58,812 --> 00:54:01,992

'cause clearly he feels

a kind of way about her.

:

00:54:01,992 --> 00:54:06,162

I don't know if it's a romantic kind

of way about her, but he definitely was

:

00:54:06,162 --> 00:54:11,022

like, you know, having her back with

crash down and that whole situation.

:

00:54:11,802 --> 00:54:15,462

It's like, I don't know if it's little

sister vibes or it's, you know, she's

:

00:54:15,522 --> 00:54:20,286

super cute vibes, but yeah, this is

how you get a new one in there to, to

:

00:54:20,481 --> 00:54:20,781

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:54:20,871 --> 00:54:22,401

This is how you end up in a sex cult.

:

00:54:23,271 --> 00:54:27,464

So, uh, before we move on, I just

wanted to call out this episode

:

00:54:27,464 --> 00:54:29,294

was directed by Alan Roker,

:

00:54:30,044 --> 00:54:30,334

Laura: Okay.

:

00:54:30,984 --> 00:54:36,174

Xhafer: Who did Bastille Day in Season

One, because the direction in this episode

:

00:54:36,174 --> 00:54:41,094

is very, like, stylized and it's all like,

I feel like I've seen something else.

:

00:54:41,094 --> 00:54:42,204

This guy's done.

:

00:54:42,624 --> 00:54:45,384

And so I checked and I

went on the, the IMDB.

:

00:54:46,614 --> 00:54:49,314

He did Year of Hell on Voyager.

:

00:54:51,594 --> 00:54:53,109

Laura: Oh, he's an artist.

:

00:54:53,934 --> 00:54:54,744

Xhafer: He also did

:

00:54:54,804 --> 00:54:55,704

Laura: Elle is really good.

:

00:54:55,704 --> 00:54:57,234

Bastille Day was really good.

:

00:54:58,059 --> 00:55:03,279

Xhafer: He also did 13 episodes of

Deep Space Nine, including its finale.

:

00:55:03,762 --> 00:55:04,662

Laura: Wow.

:

00:55:05,157 --> 00:55:10,527

Xhafer: So he did the Voyager finale

and the DS nine finale and did 26

:

00:55:10,527 --> 00:55:13,407

episodes between DS nine and Voyager.

:

00:55:13,934 --> 00:55:15,184

Laura: Yeah, we have seen

:

00:55:16,004 --> 00:55:17,774

Xhafer: We've seen a ton of his work.

:

00:55:18,204 --> 00:55:20,484

He's done a bunch of other

shows that I've seen.

:

00:55:20,484 --> 00:55:23,994

He did an episode of Supernatural

episodes of stuff here and there.

:

00:55:24,444 --> 00:55:27,504

Um, some Twilight Zones

yeah, all kinds of stuff.

:

00:55:28,156 --> 00:55:29,686

Laura: But did he do any Airwolf?

:

00:55:30,826 --> 00:55:31,996

Xhafer: He did do a viper,

:

00:55:33,076 --> 00:55:33,976

Laura: Oh, how funny.

:

00:55:34,526 --> 00:55:35,696

Xhafer: Not one that we watched,

:

00:55:37,946 --> 00:55:39,296

Laura: Gonna go watch that one for fun.

:

00:55:39,446 --> 00:55:40,406

Xhafer: no, no, I'm not,

:

00:55:40,496 --> 00:55:41,366

Laura: I didn't think you were

:

00:55:42,206 --> 00:55:46,043

Xhafer: although I will say uh, we've,

it hasn't aired yet, but we've uh, we're

:

00:55:46,043 --> 00:55:48,023

already started recording our next show.

:

00:55:48,563 --> 00:55:51,413

Because we're a little bit ahead

because of my pending vacation.

:

00:55:51,723 --> 00:55:55,923

And I can't believe I'm about to

say this, I would probably rather be

:

00:55:55,923 --> 00:55:58,083

watching Viper than Billions right now,

:

00:55:59,078 --> 00:55:59,298

Laura: No.

:

00:56:01,083 --> 00:56:02,583

I look forward to that coverage.

:

00:56:03,003 --> 00:56:04,383

I need more context.

:

00:56:04,743 --> 00:56:05,103

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:56:05,193 --> 00:56:10,543

Well, I mean, eh Beth called

it Entourage for Finance Bros.

:

00:56:11,233 --> 00:56:12,373

That's pretty correct.

:

00:56:13,033 --> 00:56:13,243

Laura: That,

:

00:56:13,243 --> 00:56:14,323

could be pedantic.

:

00:56:14,323 --> 00:56:14,773

Yeah.

:

00:56:14,953 --> 00:56:15,433

Xhafer: yeah.

:

00:56:15,908 --> 00:56:16,453

Laura: All right.

:

00:56:16,847 --> 00:56:17,067

Ugh,

:

00:56:17,842 --> 00:56:18,172

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:56:18,292 --> 00:56:21,022

All right, so episode rating time.

:

00:56:22,012 --> 00:56:26,392

Gimme that episode rating on

a scale of one to 12 colonies.

:

00:56:26,902 --> 00:56:28,552

Laura: It's so hard.

:

00:56:28,672 --> 00:56:30,262

'cause it is really good.

:

00:56:30,532 --> 00:56:36,287

Like I especially loved the

rapid pacing up to like.

:

00:56:36,982 --> 00:56:40,732

All the pieces falling into place

to get Rosalyn off the ship.

:

00:56:42,222 --> 00:56:47,532

As much as I hate the shit going

down with Ty 'cause you just

:

00:56:47,532 --> 00:56:49,362

want him to like be better man.

:

00:56:50,112 --> 00:56:56,832

It's a really artful, falling apart and

really believable and really pulls at

:

00:56:56,832 --> 00:57:01,342

you and makes you feel things especially

just how bad he's fucking it all up.

:

00:57:01,942 --> 00:57:04,252

And Daddy ADA's back.

:

00:57:04,822 --> 00:57:11,335

We miss daddy a so I don't know, I

gotta give it at least like a 10.

:

00:57:12,325 --> 00:57:13,615

Xhafer: Oh, this is an 11 for me.

:

00:57:13,735 --> 00:57:14,185

Yeah.

:

00:57:14,305 --> 00:57:15,715

I really liked this episode.

:

00:57:16,495 --> 00:57:21,571

Laura: Yeah, I really can't wait for Star

Bees to figure out how to get off Capa.

:

00:57:22,312 --> 00:57:22,532

Xhafer: Yep.

:

00:57:23,462 --> 00:57:23,752

It's

:

00:57:23,817 --> 00:57:25,527

Laura: I guess they have an idea.

:

00:57:25,527 --> 00:57:28,677

They were, they did talk in the

episode about we've gotta get with

:

00:57:28,677 --> 00:57:30,447

all these people and steal Raptor.

:

00:57:31,017 --> 00:57:31,347

Xhafer: yeah,

:

00:57:31,970 --> 00:57:33,590

Laura: So there's that.

:

00:57:34,341 --> 00:57:35,431

Xhafer: well, we'll see it.

:

00:57:35,431 --> 00:57:38,446

We'll figure it out and maybe

we'll figure it out next week.

:

00:57:38,776 --> 00:57:42,706

We got season two, episode five, the Farm.

:

00:57:44,116 --> 00:57:44,236

Oh.

:

00:57:44,236 --> 00:57:46,666

We're gonna be joined by

Gloria Anne from Cool Girls.

:

00:57:46,666 --> 00:57:48,376

Don't look at Explosions.

:

00:57:48,376 --> 00:57:48,436

Hey.

:

00:57:48,781 --> 00:57:49,576

Laura: I can't wait.

:

00:57:50,821 --> 00:57:53,381

Xhafer: This one she picked

out I did not pick for her,

:

00:57:54,191 --> 00:57:58,301

um, after the, I don't wanna say

it was a fiasco last time, but

:

00:57:59,186 --> 00:58:03,056

Laura: Was she operating on

strong Roslyn episode vibes again,

:

00:58:03,056 --> 00:58:07,316

or did she have another idea,

or do we just need to ask her?

:

00:58:07,451 --> 00:58:08,801

Xhafer: we, we will talk to her about it.

:

00:58:09,611 --> 00:58:15,081

Uh, But it Adama and Rosalyn fight

for the hearts and minds of the fleets

:

00:58:15,081 --> 00:58:21,141

population as Starbuck finds herself

trapped in a resistance hospital.

:

00:58:21,792 --> 00:58:22,272

Laura: Huh?

:

00:58:22,721 --> 00:58:23,621

Xhafer: Yeah.

:

00:58:24,299 --> 00:58:27,269

Laura: I, we, we were only

introduced to 53 people.

:

00:58:27,329 --> 00:58:29,429

I suppose they could

have their own hospital

:

00:58:30,074 --> 00:58:30,494

Xhafer: Hmm.

:

00:58:31,754 --> 00:58:35,414

Seems awfully suspicious from an

episode description, doesn't it?

:

00:58:36,689 --> 00:58:37,199

Laura: yeah.

:

00:58:37,454 --> 00:58:39,344

Xhafer: slightly alter that one too.

:

00:58:40,514 --> 00:58:43,964

Uh, maybe I shouldn't

have, but that's fine.

:

00:58:44,724 --> 00:58:44,944

Laura: Huh?

:

00:58:45,314 --> 00:58:47,474

Xhafer: Because I, I took

out, I took out one word.

:

00:58:47,474 --> 00:58:51,674

I took out the word suspicious

from resistance Hospital.

:

00:58:53,039 --> 00:58:53,459

Laura: Hmm.

:

00:58:53,804 --> 00:58:56,594

Xhafer: But now that we're talking about

it and you're instantly suspicious, I

:

00:58:56,594 --> 00:58:58,454

feel like removing that word did nothing.

:

00:58:58,784 --> 00:58:59,264

So.

:

00:59:02,309 --> 00:59:02,669

Laura: Yeah.

:

00:59:03,059 --> 00:59:04,409

No, I find it suspicious.

:

00:59:04,409 --> 00:59:04,709

Yeah.

:

00:59:04,874 --> 00:59:06,134

Xhafer: Yeah, that's fair.

:

00:59:06,284 --> 00:59:07,034

You're supposed to,

:

00:59:07,469 --> 00:59:09,809

Laura: How do 53 people rent a hospital?

:

00:59:09,899 --> 00:59:10,079

Like,

:

00:59:12,733 --> 00:59:15,733

Xhafer: all right, well that's that.

:

00:59:16,541 --> 00:59:19,511

You know, I guess all that's

left to do is say thank you.

:

00:59:20,319 --> 00:59:21,819

So let's, let's say thank you.

:

00:59:22,329 --> 00:59:24,279

Xhafer: Hey Aaron, thanks so much for

editing this podcast and putting in

:

00:59:48,068 --> 00:59:54,248

all my stupid drops and making us sound

funnier by adding a bunch of your own and

:

00:59:54,248 --> 00:59:59,298

uh, just making us sound like coherent,

intelligent people instead of people who

:

00:59:59,328 --> 01:00:02,718

shouldn't have drank a nine and a half

percent beer at:

:

01:00:02,718 --> 01:00:07,698

:

bed, which is where I definitely am.

:

01:00:09,483 --> 01:00:12,618

the early morning us and we're having

:

01:00:14,058 --> 01:00:16,647

nighttime beer time podcasters.

:

01:00:16,737 --> 01:00:18,117

Xhafer: Nighttime, beer time.

:

01:00:18,267 --> 01:00:18,957

Hmm.

01:00:19,997 --> 01:00:22,727

Laura: And thank you listener for

spending some of your day with us

01:00:22,907 --> 01:00:27,497

01:00:27,497 --> 01:00:29,327
