Where can I find the promo for the next episode? I checked YouTube and such and didn't find it, and it doesn't seem to be up on SciFi.com. [Actually, judging from their Battlestar page, they have Sine Qua Non listed as the next episode. Are we taking another week off?]

[edit] Never mind, it seems they just haven't updated the site for this week yet.

You mean this promo?

D'anna tells Roslin that she's one of the five. If this were true, then why would they reveal the biggest question in a preview? It's a lie!

could be a llie, but then why would it? the only other possibility is that Adama is the fifth. But he was aboard when the four heard the noise. Then Roslin wasn't on the Galactica then. Roslin is the fifth. Someone may have messed up revealing it in the preview. Or there is a bigger reason why Roslin is the fifth. My money is on Roslin being the fifth. I gave up on Starbuck being the fifth.

I highly doubt that the promo was an edit slip. I'm sure Moore wouldn't have approved of it if it were true. Who the fifth Cylon is is by far the biggest secret in BSG, so to reveal it from a 30 second promo is just dumb at best.

Still does not prove it other wise, or rather disprove it.

Didn't Moore or someone say that the final cylon wasn't on the Last Supper poster? If so, then it can't be Roslyn, and it simply was clever editing to mislead us.

Just like all the other promo 'reveals', I think that this one is just clever editing: D'Anna saying what she said, and then a cut to Roslin, making you think something [that you thought you already knew], but in reality it's probably something way different.

And thanks for the promo, for some reason I was thinking the name of the episode was the name of another show.

My impression of the promo clip was Roslin was a shocked response to someone else in the room being outed as a cylon, my bet is D'anna is delivering the revelation that either Torry or Anders is one of the final five, both were on the basestar if when it jumped away if I remember correctly. I'm sure they want to keep the saber rattling going for a few more episodes before revealing the final one.

Ah, that's an excellent observation!

The only major characters on the Basestar I think were Roslin, Baltar, and Helo. Plus all the workers with the Vipers; I'm not sure if there were any major characters in that part. Tory was shown in the newest episode with Lee, so she wasn't on the Basestar.

It's entirely possible that D'Anna was just outing Anders.

That's the most probable explanation. I have a feeling that the known 4 are going to get outed to the characters one by one (in a painfully slow way just for us) before we get to find out who the fifth one is.

Actually I think you are right.

    • Anthropic introduces Claude Tag, a new AI teammate for Slack by Fiza Ali Anthropic has announced Claude Tag, a new feature that lets teams work with Claude directly inside Slack. The idea is simple: once Claude is added to a Slack workspace and given access to selected channels, users can tag @Claude in conversations and assign tasks. Claude can then work through those requests using connected tools and data sources before posting its results back into a Slack thread. What makes Claude Tag different from a typical chatbot is that it's designed to operate as a shared assistant for an entire team rather than a single user. Everyone in a channel interacts with the same Claude instance. This allows the team members to see ongoing work and continue tasks started by others. Furthermore, Anthropic says the AI can build context over time by following conversations in channels where it has permission to operate. This means users don't have to repeatedly provide the same background information for every request. The system is also designed for asynchronous work. Instead of waiting for responses in a chat window, users can assign a task to Claude and return later once the work is complete. Anthropic says Claude can break larger requests into multiple steps and use connected tools to complete them. Moreover, the system can also schedule follow-up tasks and continue working on projects over extended periods. Another feature allows Claude to keep the users updated and follow up on unresolved tasks when its optional "ambient" mode is enabled. The company says the tool is already being used internally for software development, data analysis, support workflows, and debugging. According to Anthropic, around 65% of its product team's code is now generated through its internal version of Claude Tag. For organisations concerned about security, administrators can control which channels, tools, and data sources Claude can access. Separate Claude instances can also be configured for different departments, helping keep information isolated between teams. Administrators can also monitor activity logs, review completed tasks, and set spending limits at both the organisation and channel level. Claude Tag is now available in beta for Claude Enterprise and Claude Team customers and runs on Claude Opus 4.8 that was announced this May. The feature will also replace Anthropic's existing Claude in Slack application, with current users able to migrate within a 30-day migration window. Lastly, eligible customers will receive introductory credits to help teams evaluate the new experience.
