Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down

Mark here...so not that much happened this episode....  Col Tigh's wife shows up.  She had apparently been knocked unconscious and woke up.  Adama was secretly aware she was aboard the fleet, which told us a bit about him.  Roslin remained suspicious about Adama, but I think that ended by the end of the episode. Otherwise, the episode played a bit like comic relief. Tigh's wife Ellen shows up a bit like dropping Kim cattrall in the middle of Battlestar Galactica.  The other characters treat her a bit comically, but then also suspect her of being a Cylon.  By the end Baltar tests her and she comes up clean, although we're led to believe that Baltar will fudge the results for anyone, as he did for Sharon in the previous episode...

Hi Laurel here...not much to add except that in the beginning of the episode we witness a weird couples lounge that neither Mark or me were sure what to make of...A bunch of couple sitting in a stadium style seating situation, looking at a view of the universe out the window, making out with each other.  As the next group comes in we realize this is how couples on galactica go on dates? Super depressing but I guess makes sense considering their limitations in terms of space.  Most of them live in communal bunk rooms where you would never really get a minute to yourself?

Mark here...on what Laurel said, it's the end of the human race, maybe they need to make some conjugal rooms available?!
