Cally and Natalie

You know when a character as hated and annoying as Cally Tyrol is killed and it leaves you feeling empty and depressed, the Battlestar Galactica crew is doing some of their most amazing storytelling. I've been a hater of Cally since the beginning, as I'm sure many are, but this whole episode felt very dark and disturbing to me and Cally's death left me feeling nothing but remorse which wasn't the reaction I was expecting. This was of course in part to Nicki Klyne's amazing performance in the episode. I've never been a fan of her acting but she really pulled it off in this episode and I actually felt sympathy for her. It was an amzing episode and my new favorite character seems to have already joined the almighty in the sky, or not according to Cavel... that bastard. Natalie was short-lived but both interesting and intriguing. All I can say is hopefully this isn't farwell to the Six who won my heart on her first appearance. I pray we see you again, a cylon Civil War just doesn't seem as interesting without you around. *tear*
