OT: BSG Discussion

[geoschmo]

When Pegasus showed up and had "Gina" 6 locked up as a Cylon, the Galactica crew all recognized her as a suspected cylon model. That pretty much confirmed that the previous episode with the Shelly Godfrey 6 model accusing Baltar wasn't a dream. There really wasn't any indication that it was a dream episode though. I'm not sure why people ever thought it was.

The only real question was whether the Mind 6 was somehow communicating with the Cylons and was working with the Shelly 6 unit somehow in a coordinated effort to teach Baltar a lesson. Personally I think Mind 6 is and always was a construct of Baltars twisted psyche. Shelly 6 was simply another 6 unit that was attempting to sow discord among the fleet by exposing/discrediting Baltar. Shelly 6 would have probably known about the other 6 models mission before the attack and that Baltar was the dupe that allowed the colonial defenses to fall. But she wouldn't have known about the Mind 6 that's been torturing Baltar ever since. He just subconciously has her using dialoge that makes it appear she is involved in real events, when actually she's just reacting to them along with Baltar.
