And Zarek seems to have forgotten that a basestar armed with nukes is outside his front door. Really, this was never a winnable situation.
Ooh, good point.
I'm still holding out hope for Gaeta. He's an honourable man who's been through terrible things and thinks he's doing the right thing. Unfortunately, some of his new friends are seriously sketchy (but then, Kara's attempt to summarily execute Nowart was pretty damn sketchy too). I doubt he realises (yet, anyway) that Gage, for example, isn't in this to save democracy but so he can rape Cylon women and get away with it. But Zarek killing Laird when non-lethal force would've been a far more appropriate response... Well, Gaeta, that's a big red flag for you about your lead co-conspirator. Pay attention!
I don't expect him to survive, but I'm hoping he goes out with some semblance of honour. Maybe he'll die pushing back when he realises his noble revolution is turning into one big war crime...
