    12 things we've learned this year .spoilers

    Entertainment weekly posted a nice little dribble on things we learned in BSG 4.0.

    http://www.ew.com/ew/gallery/0,,20205065,00.html

    Here are the highlights:
    Spoiler:

    1. LEE ADAMA GETS WHAT HE WANTS BY NOT WANTING ANYTHING
    2. BILL LOVES LAURA
    3. STARBUCK CAN BE REALLY ANNOYING
    4. BALTAR IS HEFNER. ALMOST.
    5. THE QUORUM OF TWELVE IS, MAYBE, THE WORST ITERATION OF DEMOCRACY
    6. THE CYLON CENTURIONS ARE SENTIENT
    7. VISIONS NEVER LEAD TO HAPPINESS
    8. AWARENESS IS DRIVING THE FINAL FOUR CRAZY
    9. THE SIX MODEL IS THE MOST COMPLEX CYLON
    10. SAUL TIGH DOES NOT SHOOT BLANKS
    11. FELIX GAETA HAS NICE PIPES
    12. MOTHER EARTH AIN'T WHAT SHE USED TO BE



    My favorite comment from their synopsis comes from #7
    "Why can't anyone just have a vision of carrot cake?"


    So, what's your favorite reveal of season 4.0? Least favorite?

    Mmmmmmm carrot cake.

    *snaps out of dessert daydream*

    Actually, what I found interesting (and not saying this as a shipper) is that only "Bill loves Laura" was on there. Because there is a huge difference between "Bill loves Laura" and "Laura loves Bill", and "Laura loves Bill" was the bigger and more powerful of the their "revelations".

    Bill has loved Laura quite possibly since mid-season two, or at the very latest by the teaser of "Lay Down Your Burdens Pt I"- it's all on his face as he watches her preparing for the debate in his quarters. There's been something there for Bill for a long time. Laura on the other hand, has liked and respected Bill, even maintained the notion of a relationship with him since the flashbacks of Unfinished Business, but for her it has always been a notion, or a flirtation and a bit of silliness rather than actual honest to god(s) love. Look at her past relationship that we are aware of, an affair with President Adar. She likes distance, she likes the keep a bit of herself to herself, hence why she wouldn't confront her true feelings for Bill before "The Hub"- he recognized this and was willing to love her from afar before the events of "Guess What's Coming to Dinner"/"Sine Qua Non"/"The Hub". Laura likes control, and she likes her emotional safety, so she allowed herself to maintain an interest in Bill, but not to actually love him in the way that he did her. Until "The Hub" of course, where she realizes what she has been missing and how she really does feel as strongly about him as he does her, making "About time" the best, and most loaded line ever exchanged between them.

    Easily the bigger revelation. Bill knew how he felt, he only needed to vocalize it; she didn't know how she felt, so she had to realize it and vocalize it.

    Heh, went on a little longer than I thought.

                            See i dunno why people didn't like Lee doing that. i know it's what i'd do. Everyone else was congratulateing eachother and getting hugs and he was just standing on his own. might as well do something wild.
                            Please do me a huge favour and help me be with the love of my life.

                              Yeah, see I agree. With all the hugging and smiling and cheering somebody had to do something the scene aside from that just to give it a little more depth of action, and I thought it was hilarious, and in character.
