| On the Viewer - Caprica (Episode 4, "Gravedancing") |
 by Fëanor |
Beware spoilers!
We open with another bombing, and then, a bunch of the space Mormons in bed together! Woah now.
I love the way Sister Clarice nabs an e-sheet off of some random guy and then uses it to send a warning about the school search. And hey, look who got the warning - dude who claimed he had no knowledge of Sister Clarice being involved with the monotheistic cult at school. Riiight. Dude was keeping explosives in his locker??
Heh. I love the bobble head-style bull that Adama has on his dashboard. Go Tauron!
Another fun moment: Graystone promises his makeup artist 1,000 cubits to let him smoke a cigarette while she works.
The young Adama's grandmother tells him, "You think you only get things from friends? You get the best things from enemies. Because they're scared of you." Holy crap! Thank you, Grandma Machiavelli.
The cops come to search the Graystone estate.
Mrs. Graystone: "What do you expect to find?"
Agent: "Maybe who she met with. Who brainwashed her into believing in a moral dictator called God."
That's some phrasing there.
Mrs. Graystone: "Did you lose someone on that train?"
Agent: "I lost everyone on that train."
Very powerful exchange.
It really is creepy when the young tech guy is poking at the Zoe-bot with tools and says something like, "Now that is a nice chest."
Heh. While the tech guy is flipping channels on the radio, he goes past the original Battlestar Galactic theme.
Man, I literally cannot watch the Sarno show bit. So uncomfortable!
Holy crap! Graystone finally reveals the secret about the virtual avatar of his daughter - on live TV!! And Amanda totally saves his ass.
Grandma Adama is so freaking hardcore.
Sam kidnaps Amanda with no problem at all. Wow. I'm waiting for her to say, "Hey... this isn't the way to the airport!"
And there she goes.
Whew. He didn't do it. He's really good at effing with his brother, though. And with the audience!
This episode was harrowing. Seriously, I think my blood pressure went up while I was watching it. Intense and complex and powerful. |
