It's very much a case of regrouping, taking stock and allowing the plot to nicely brew, with the focus shifting to Starbuck's Demetrius. The sudden reappearance of Cylon Leoben throws an intriguing spanner into the works as he vies with Anders for Starbuck's attention. But can he sense that Anders is one of his own kind? Hark back to the earlier scene in this season when a Centurion certainly recognised the true nature of Starbuck's husband while fighting in space.
The mental meltdown of Tyrol is compelling and his confrontation with religious nutcase Baltar is superb. Aaron Douglas really excels at playing the brooding widower with a dark secret, and reminds us all of the humanity we associated with Tyrol when he unexpectedly extends his hand to Baltar at the end of the episode.
Overall, there's a definite 'calm before the storm' feeling as not a great deal actually happens in the episode. But the prospect of a renegade Cylon alliance with the Galactica fleet is terrifically exciting.
