Yeah, we'll have to see what happens with the whole Starbuck/Leoben thing. I really, REALLY hope she's playing him. Our girl is too clever to let the guy get at her with a ploy like this.

And yeah, I'm with you on the feeling sorry for Ellen thing. She's grown kind of amazingly as a character, hasn't she? When we first saw the glimpses of her going at it with the Priest Cylon, I was certain she was in bed with Zarek--but what they actually showed us rather surprised me. That she'd be in bed with the enemy I could cynically have bought, and would certainly have been a logical progression of the behavior we've seen out of her before. But that she's actually doing it to try to protect her husband--that's actually really cool character growth on her part.
