This was a very dark and disturbing episode !
Starbuck out of sorts , almost wanting to die , but ends up doing the right thing anyway. Not sure how I feel about this ep yet.

Your right, it was a dark ep. Things I found interesting in it were, the happenings between Starbuck and Kat, Starbuck and the Cylon Raider, that it was an ep that had so much attention put on the Cylon Raider.
And that it was an interesting choice of ep to sandwiched between, Black Market and Sacrifice. Scar, a dark ep indeed. -nettie

I liked this one a lot. That Scar was the reincarnated Raidersoul embodied in a new machine actually makes sense with Sharon description of it being a pet.
Scar's tactics of assassin/warrior and a viciously beaten dog mentality goes to show how far their own demons will take the Cylons. It was a really good dogfight to follow and the rivalry between tarbuck and the stim-junkie only will cement their relationship further. Notice also that Starbuck does not like being in command. She's only there because she's the most talented and experienced Viperpilot in the fleet. She always bucked authority, had her own opinions and as the way karma works, we get what we dish out... or don't do unto others. Stimjunkie is rattling Starbuck's cage in the same manner Starbuck has always done to others... and as she's a heavy drinker she's almost the same as Tie. Her being unhappy is because she had to leave her soulmate on Caprica. This episode is about Starbuck dealing with her internal demons and moving on. toa  Boomer: Just keep it up, old buddy, you're going to get us into real trouble. Starbuck: Ten thousand light years from nowhere, our planet shot to pieces, people starving, and *I'm* gonna get us in trouble? * * * "You're not a Cylon....maybe because I'm a Cylon and I haven't seen you at the secret meetings." |
