Bill Adama: “You tried to steal an election ?”

Laura Roslin: “Yes, I did. And I got caught. But Gaius Baltar cannot become President of the Colonies, Bill. It cannot happen.”

I just want to know how the fuck Mary was able to look ten years younger than the beginning of the series which was only 5 years before. No fucking fair. ACTUALLY, she looked younger than that. Watch Crazy Like a Fox…no, don’t watch it. However,…

the pink nightie. THE pink nightie. THE pink nightie was MARY’S nightie. excuse me a moment while I…

that moment when this song comes on shuffle and you became a frakking crying mess of human being because of:

space!parents

Laura’s cabin

pre-debate maniac giggle

the kiss

the other kiss (aka space!baby kara and lee seeing space!mommy and space!daddy going at it)

searider falcon

sine qua non

“that’s a good colour on you”

Bill&Laura post-coital bliss

Bill’s ring on Laura’s finger

space!parents feelings, here you come!

when Battlestar met Downton
from Tv without Pity:
Later, everybody’s in full rank and file and in ceremony dress. Figurski “Commander on deck”s Roslin into the hangar. Chief nods to Laura and introduces her to the Blackbird. “Madam President, this is an honor.” She goes the modesty route, saying that the honor is hers, and that the Blackbird is “remarkable.” He out-modesties her with a respectful “Just a ship, ma’am.” Cally and the other crew sign their Blackbird — even Hotdog — as Roslin gives a short speech: “After what we’ve been through, it would be very easy to give up, to lose hope. But not here. Not today. This is more than a ship, Chief. This is an act of faith. It is proof that despite all we’ve lost, we keep trying. And we will get through this, all of us, together. I promise.” Everybody stands at attention, wondering why Roslin’s giving the usual speech Adama gives them, but noticing how it makes a lot more sense, on a word-by-word basis. Tyrol offers Roslin a bottle of champagne and then slips a sheet off the nose of the Blackbird, revealing it’s to be christened the Laura. Roslin is in tears, and I’m…see, this show gets to me the way that only old-school West Wing gets to me. Buffy. Farscape, even. You see it coming from a mile away and then POW! They get you anyway. Bastards. And then on a meta level they get you again, because: she’s so dead, dude. The whole crew of the Galactica giving her this military honor out of nowhere? Come on. Laura tries to speak, finally choking out a simple “Thank you.”Adama invites her to “do the honors,” and she’s lovable and bumbling as she figures out what that means. She rears back with the bottle of champagne and rushes forward, and everyone freaks out because it’s like the only bottle of champagne left in the entire universe, and she giggles. “Kidding.” It’s a very funny, cute moment. Adama turns with approval to look at Tigh, who’s like, “I’d fucking kill her myself.” Roslin opens the bottle cutely, like a tipsy librarian, and hands it off. Tyrol takes a big old gulp. Racetrack makes amends with Helo under the guise of congratulating him on the carbon composites, and then she and the other pilots and crew shake his hand.
