I've been trying my darnedest to realise that I am a putz; incapable of comprehending the truly sublime that Ron worked out for us. But I can't shake the feeling that the finale was a 'farewell friends' cast party that accidentally got filmed.

My hope was that Starbuck's mysticalness was somehow going to tie in with the colonist's polytheism, and that there'd be some tension/resolution between that and the Cylon's monotheism.

Nuttin'.
