First of all, I was so so very terrified that they'd killed Helo. My one wish was for him to make it through okay. I full-on freaked when they shot him and then WE DIDN'T SEE HIM FOR SO LONG. Seriously, when I spotted him in the distance there were actual sobs of joy.
Okay, me crying in the episode? I can't lie, there was a lot of it. But the things that hit me the hardest were Sammy and his "see you on the other side" had me sobbing (OH SAMUEL T, LET ME COUNT THE WAYS IN WHICH I LOVE YOU) and them cutting in his speech about why he loves Pyramid was heartwrenchingly perfect. Bill putting the wedding ring on Laura's finger and telling him about the cabin had me sobbing. GAIUS BALTAR, I HAVE NO WORDS FOR YOU, SIR. You know, the thing that had me crying the hardest (I'm talking ugly, gasiping for breath, mascara allll over my face sobbing) was "What do you hear Starbuck?" "Nothin' but the rain." IDK, IT JUST REALLY GOT TO ME.
I'm okay with the way they left Kara and Lee. I would have been more thrown off if they would have got a "happy" ending, because that just wouldn't fit with their arc? The fact that they remain unfinished as it were fits them better, as tragic as it is. BUT I HAVE FAITH THAT LEELAND WILL GO ON TO DO GREAT THINGS. ILY LEEEEE.
