Saga of a Star World - Part 2
- Apollo and Boomer solve part of the hunger crisis when they discover one ship that is hoarding food; the ship is controlled by Sire Uri, a member of the council of twelve who isn't very understanding when Apollo insists that he share his food with the starving people on other ships
- After some debate and some more unsolicited input from Apollo, the Council of Twelve decide the fleet should head for Carillon in the hopes that they will be able to refuel and resupply there
- the fleet arrives on Carillon and sends down two teams to scout the planet; the first team (Starbuck, Boomer) discovers a casino resort where no one seems to know about what happened to Caprica and the rest of the 12 colonies; Starbuck smells an opportunity to make some money and acts on it despite Boomer's warning that things seem a little strange at the casino resort
- the second team (Apollo, Jolly, Serina, Boxey) head in a different direction and encounter some alien life forms who look vaguely insectoid
- some thing goes horribly wrong at the casino resort at the very end of the episode but what it is exactly isn't revealed in this episode
- there's also a couple other subplots; one involves Starbuck and Cassiopeia; another is about snapping Boxey out of his funk over losing his pet
- still not great
- I know Starbuck is supposed to be the lovable rogue but I find him to be more icky than lovable
- the Council of Twelve looked considerably more diverse in the previous episode; in this episode it seems to consist of only white folks, more specifically white men; I'm pretty sure it was all male in the previous episode
- the Cylons do appear but only briefly and there are no fights between the Cylons and Humanity
