*SPOILERS* Battlestar Galactica, s2e10

[Yvo]

Probably not but they were the ones with the guns :)

[father dagon]

I've read spoilers from other sources...supposedly that is a "mothership" of some sort...larger than the basestars. There seems to be some discrepancies between what happens in season 3, but most of what I've read agree on a few points;

The Pegasus gets royally whomped on and is used to retrofit the Galactica both with weapons and Vipers. Supposedly both the Battlestars engage the two basestars, destroy one and seriously damage the second, with Starbuck pretty much mowing through the Raiders in her stealth ship...then the Mothership takes on the Pegasus and pretty much kicks the crap out of her.

Oh, and at some point Cain dies. :woot:

At this point, treat this as speculation, because I'm attempting to consolidate several sources and still reading..but these seem to be common concepts in most of the spoilers I'm reading.

wow....that was the best episode of battlestar to date, I thought....I was on the edge of my chair the whole time...and couldn't believe it when the annoying words came up, "to be continued..."....

really awesome episode...

[Yvo]

its still going to be season 3... scifi is pretty much known for splitting up their season's in half. season 3 probably wont start until july 06, but the 2nd part of season 2 will start in January.

However since the brits will start airing season 2 episodes in october, I can see newer season 2 episodes (episode 11 and later) being aired in the UK before they air in the US (by maybe 2-3 weeks).

REALLY?!?! :woot:

I'd lost hope for a bit, since I'm moving to Japan in January...at least I can "acquire" them before I go...

[Viserov]

They probably haven't even started filming most of the season 2b episodes, so I doubt the UK will get them before the US. Plus, I think Sci-Fi has the priviledge of airing the episodes first because they pay for the series.

[father dagon]

Ok...tons more spoilers that the Pegasus gets stripped for parts. That's pretty much been confirmed...

Also that supposedly something comes up in the fleet where certain Colonials want to attempt peace with the Cylons. Lots of blurbs about Baltar giving "Gina" (female Number 6 aboard the Pegasus) a nuke somehow(?).

Okay, there's a difference between spoilers for something that's already aired and something that's yet to be aired. Please, do not spoil unaired material without putting it inside tags, as it's very annoying!

[father dagon]

Christ, you guys complain when I do, then complain when I don't. Sorry I'm not up on the "rules" posting in a spoilers thread for the show we all just watched on basic cable.

Whatever, have fun.

[AveDeoInferio]

lol don't sweat it father dragon. the title of this thread starts with *SPOILERS* so whatever.

[Samoa]

Hell, I thought Adama was going to lauch the Cylon Virus at Pegasus, disabling all of the attacking forces. But however it happens it's gonna be great. BSG owns. :yes:

[Glowstick]

I think the big ship is probably some kind of central command ship. I know raiders don't have pilots and I'm pretty sure base stars don't either so this big ship might be a central computer to guide them all.

You should rewatch that episode where Starbuck scrapes a brain thing out of a raider.

[Lexcyn]

Oh ... my .... how could it just END like that? Man, Pegasus needs to get owned and hard.

Anyone know when the next episodes come out? :cry:

I'd like to know that too. :yes:

[Samoa]

What rank is the Pegasus CAG?

586571007[/snapback]

Captain Taylor. He says it after the Raptor lands on the Galactica Deck. ;)

I created this thread to discuss/spoil episode 10 and to SPECULATE about future episodes, not for you to post actual spoilers. It's not hard to figure out. If you want, you can create a new topic and spoil every episode to season 3 as you please.

Yeah, but one is free to spoil if one so chooses. I don't like it, but it's called freedom of speech. ;)

Hence the creation of a new topic if one feels the need to ruin the rest of the season for the rest of us.

I think the "new ship" is what all the cylone female/males are traveling on - hense to 2 base stars for escort. Notice how they get around alot - and i doubt it would be using a raider with all the bio-machanical bits stuck inside??? Also they would want to be close to rescue sharon & whats-her-face on the pegasus???

Definite possibility, however Sharon has no intention of being rescued as she hates the Cylons themselves. Plus look at what the Chief and Helo did for her. Now Number 6 may want to be rescued, however I personally think the Pegasus is going towards them and the big unknown ship isn't coming for them.

The idea I got is that the Pegasus found Galactica because the Cylon fleet kept tracking the Galactica. This makes sense considering the Pegasus is only one ship whereas the Galactica and Co have 30-40 ships.

[LOC Veteran]

I still think Admiral Cain or one of her higher ups is a Cylon. Since Ensign Ro (god, she'll always be known as Ro, lol) is not signed (as of now) to anything more than a few episodes, it would make sense to have her by a Cylon or one of her close officers a Cylon.

As for that large ship, my guess is it's sorta like the entire Cylon civilization (like in ID4) that they move around from system to system to get natural resources, or it's a big giant roaming movie theater/pavillion.

[Viserov]

It might be a cylon training facility, sort of like Voyager's "In the Flesh" 8472 training facility.

[Samoa]

We'll all find out soon enough. January isnt' that far away...just seems like it. :cry:

*hence, people can post spoilers as well. ;)

[father dagon]

So no one freaks out. :p

That big ship is being referred to as a "Resurrection Ship" on several sites. Take that for what it's worth...don't want to "spoil" anything in this spoilers thread.

Btw, everything I posted earlier I said was speculation, most of which should be common sense. The show is called 'Battlestar: Galactica', not BS:G and Pegasus...and like LOC said, Cain is only signed on for a few episodes, and when one looks back at the original series with how the Pegasus/Cain went out...

you know that they won't be sticking around for long. My only concern is how much damage Cain will do before she gets offed.

Looking back, only a handful of characters from the Pegasus were given speaking roles...most prominently the aeronautical engineer from the Pegasus who fills Chiefs role.

If/when the Pegasus goes down

...they probably emphasized the engineer for a reason, and he designed the engines on the BlackBird...things are looking grim for 'ol Chief, especially being sentenced to death. I wonder if they'll manage to save both of them?

Again...all SPECULATION, but it's a shared speculation. Is that good enough to get me by?

that's exactly what i am thinking. why would robots/cyborgs need with a planet? especially since they are out trying to Kill an entire species? they would use everyone and everything to get the job done.
