Battlestar speculation

I think that a resurrection hub or hyper/sub space connection to a particular type of resurrection hub close to Kobol or the colonies or even on one of the Colonial worlds is in orbit around the earth or maybe even located on Mars or the Moon, or Alpha Centuri . This type of resurrection facility can resurrect anyone who is of Cylon heritage which includes all the Colonials. (Surprise!)

If we remember back Kobol was actually quite inhabitable, a bit of a fixer upper but the Colonials have time on their hands and no fear of hard work. Just look at what they managed to do with New Capricia and that was a hole of a place. The big reason at the time to run Kobol was that the Colonials were being chased about the galaxy by the Cylons and were following the belief that Earth would be a safe haven from those awful toasters. That is no longer case if the Colonials have win out against the remaining Cylons in the civil war.

So now they could return all to Kobol and start anew. Cylons and humans alike. However, we would also be in the know that the process would really just be starting all over again. We know that in time Earth would (remember the plant that Roslin picked up), as will the Colonial worlds, be inhabitable again, and so the cycle can begin anew. They seem to be all about the cycles in Battlestar. Remember even the series itself is a re-imagining of something we've already seen. So in my view the remainder of the series will see them win out against the bad Cylons and settle down with the good Cylons on Kobol.

So it seems the Final Cylon is

someone who falls broadly under my initial prediction though it would appear I was wrong as the specific instance. Or at least that is what we're lead to believe. Avoid clicking the link above if you don't wish to be in any way spoiled.

That said I think they may play around with us a bit more, indeed I was half expecting to get some straight up visual clue that undermines that this is really Earth. To their credit they're being much more subtle than that.

Battlestar - Irish Government cross over episode

It's not hilarious I admit but it's more a test of what might be possible once the telly card comes out of the plastic wrapping and into the maw of the machine.

And the final cylon is...

Admiral Cain!

Seriously, wouldn't that just kick that part of the body that is in most contact with the couch. It is only a guess mind. My guess, all my guess. And entirely consistent with my view that the final cylon is someone already died who would have to be resurrected. And guess what? We're off to a resurrection hub!

The final Cylon

I've been thinking about what would be the most unexpected thing to do with the final Cylon and what occurred to me is that all the speculation is focused on the living. So why couldn't the final Cylon be someone that has died in the Series to date that they happen to come across on some planet or base in the final episode of the first half of the last series. And then we get some back story on them as the start of the 2nd half of the series.

After all we should be able to presume that the final five can resurrect just like the other 7even flesh jobs. And so this final member of the final five may have died and gone to some place where they were resurrected (where a place had been prepared for them as the Testament would say), and we've had a small bit of foreshadowing in that Lee Adama asked his father what if it had been his brother that had returned rather than Kara. So my wild guess is that the final Cylon could be the other younger Adama boy Zak. Or more probably but still on the same theme another character who has been killed in the series so far, like the President's old PA - Billy Keikeya.

What is better than Gaius Baltar?

Why double Gaius of course! I think the sign for the deep end must have been some way back, cos the place he has gone in off is way beyond deep. "She's a sexy lady"
