Exactly!!!!! Shoulda just shot her right there and said "Well I guess that will help out with rations huh?!?!"

"Here's where your piece lands!!! BANG!!!!!!" - Michael
That's how it should have gone down!
The Group going to Lake Matthews: Are they the new Boulder or are they the BSG Fleet that hides when Adama takes the Galactica on a final assault on the Cylon homeworld?
Will everyone be picked off or will they establish a safe haven for our heroes to fall back to once they've leveled L.A.?
There was no crow introducing ... HER!
Besides that: This episode has the "fees" of a lot of goodbyes. I mean, hey, OK ... There are lot of goodbyes. But this time this seems to be kind of finally goodbyes ... and a lot of them.
This is a set up story (being Part 2 of season 4... it makes since) so there isn't a whole lot info wise. Mainly set up. Colony breaking apart. Burt/Reilly getting ready to leave. Scratch being back. Just a few thoughts.
I think Saul is not long for this world. From a storytelling stand point he is a Foreshadowing God. Said Lady was alive.... she is alive. Said his mom was alive... she is alive. Said Lizzy will fall for him.... Lizzy Falls for him. Said Lizzy was still alive... Lizzy is still alive. Outside of Burt saying "Scratch is alive" no one else has done this. Him saying "I need to set up stuff just in case..." is nothing short of KC going "Yeah. This bastards about to die". Add in that he is Immune and such? Yeah. I see him going down protecting group and Lizzy naming the child Saul Jr.
Scratch has been watching the Colony for a while. Tardust saying "More gun trucks already?" leads me to believe that they have been there for a while looking around. Also odd they are just chilling on the walls. Guess with the Colony getting bigger it was bound to happen.
Once again KC has blown my mind. Never would have guessed The Colony would split up. Gives us a way to get everyone we care about, plus Pete, in one place. Outside of Pegs flying... the group is back together fully. Having them go "Yeah.. Prison needs to stay as is" and move on is cool.
All in All a great way to get the second half of the season going.
And are you kidding me??? Already 9 pages of hilariousnessnitude?
Doesn't look good for Saul to go looking for baby medical supplies with no heavy guns. I'm calling it now, He's gonna stumble upon the Inkling Factory in one of the neonatal clinics. Either they have a confrontation or they gain another clue as to how and where Ink makes the Inklings.
Oh man, either Scratch is not going to survive this or ... New Zealand prime minister John Key indeed is a shape-changing reptilian alien...
John Key confirms the latter to be false. Oh my...
I can't see Randy gathering the stuff for himself. I just don't see him as knowing what to do with them like Ink does. My guess is Ink was using him to gather the stuff due to Randy about to read. I believe that Ink is still working with The Little Ones. Thus why they are even bigger now.
Yeah, that scene had the most gaping holes in terms of eyewitness accounts, and even Michael said that leading into it. They had to piece it together after everything happened. It was such an important event, it had to be documented. Why did we hear what the soldiers were saying? Like word for word? That's the mechanics of how we tell the story. The details of this instance, at the end, follows the rules already established. How, exactly, won't be clear for now.
Splitting the party:
Why did the Colonists extend the Colony-territory based on CJ's plans in the first place? Were they ambitious enough to believe that they could stay there like forever? And did the resource-issue occur during the last weaks? Or did CJ have things in mind for quite a while already, but she let people work in order to keep them busy instead of worrying?
Scratch's return:
To me it's like she still is up and true to her sole agenda: To kill Pegs.
This bitch is so mad and crazy. Really f*cked up.
But, hey, that's why we love her, right?

To add something new to the nine pages, the fading between radio conversations was MASTERFUL. Not because of how it is realized technically, but because then the transition to Tardust and Scratch TOTALLY blindsided me, after 10 transitions between our heroes it was just unexpected. Nice!
I don't like the hand waving to explain the behemots question, though. Michael's question about them is not answered by Tanya. "Walls don't matter with Behemots" "Yeah, but it was really dark in there." Wait, what?!and there ia a bunch of other overlooked passages, but I'm on my phone and I hate writing on this :)
JOHN KEY MUST BE STOPPED AT ALL COSTS FOR THE PROTECTION AND SAFETY OF SCRATCH!!
(who is John Key?)
... it's been two hours since I have listened to the latest ep... and I am still dancing due to Scratch's return. A wonderful day, thank you Mr Wayland, you are VERY much appreciated!

Ink's gonna be the "The Valiant Little Tailor" who's gonna smack all the seven groups of survivors leaving the Colony with a single mindblow from his masterful mind ...
Here is an interesting twist. Of the drugs used in the experimentation, all are prescription drugs, except one. Follistatin. Ink can scavenge hospitals and pharmacies, and replace the others, but not the follistatin. Michael made the statement "...and now we have it."
The little ones took several casualties when Michael etal returned from Ft Irwin. In the last week, Ink lost a few more. If he wants to replenish the ranks he needs Folistatin and a child. Say it with me now, Dun Dun Dunbar...
This has actually been in the back of my mind for a long time now. Ink is gonna want Saul Jr. How many newborns are there these days to experiment with?? The possibility of "fresh meat" so to speak would be way too tempting for Ink. I actually thought it was going to happen during Puck's re-telling what with Kelly and Lizzy alone in Dunbar.
I don't think the Little Ones are that young. I believe that are younger (Like 10ish), but not babies. Mainly b/c there is a certain amount of mental growth that needs to happen in a human. A baby doesn't have that yet. They eat and poop. No walking or anything. Needs to be a bit older for that to happen.
With the way that the CJ and Pegs conversation was headed, I almost thought that CJ was going get a "Pegs-Leg" to replace her bad prosthetic.
With this being said, I can't help but wondering if any hanky-panky took place in the Arena. Just what kind of Playing (As Samantha called it) and Fun (as Martin called it) took place in the enter of the rink? When Burt saw the army of zombies approaching the hospital, in The Devil's Workshop, he mentioned seeing several living, unturned humans. Any babies made prior to the Purgatory chapter will be due shortly, if not already born.
If he goes after the child by gut says it is to make a family from the one he lost. Couldn't have a child with his wife (being dead and all) so he is starting fresh. Raise a little nut job like himself.
This makes me nervous.
Compare this:
to this:
I definitely think he'll take someone out...maybe Tardust?
