BSG finale: commercial break 5

Can the cylons control when they stop projecting? It seems like always being in the operahouse would be bad in the middle of a battle. Like, you can't see the bullets, because they aren't in the operahouse... but they can still kill you.

Also, man, it is dangerous to be a toddler in the middle of a gunfight.

All of the operahouse visions are coming true! This is so cool. Also, everyone, human and cylon and halvsies alike, can project into the operahouse. So maybe they are all cylons, as R. expects. The parallelism of the visions with reality is awesome. Very satisfyingly literary.

"Everyone in this room has experienced things they can't explain or fathom." Yes. The product of terrible writers. 13-year-old girls strike again! Bwa ha ha. Actually, this speech by Balthar in the CIC is a good justification for all his various roles and speechifying for the past five years.

This truce seems exactly like the last truce, where they got resurrection and human bodies in return for the cylons not eradicating humanity. But... this has all happened before. This will all happen again!
