I hated that. Actually, I hated her playing the role, however briefly, of The Girlfriend. Ack.
ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK!
(Also much agreement on other issues like the Lee/Kara kiss and being glad it was Lee, not Adama who snapped Laura out of her craziness.)
That is the only reason for her to be wearing four inch stiletto heels. IT MADE NO SENSE!
Actually, and I'm a dork for remembering, but I'm pretty sure those are the shoes she arrive on Galactica in way back in season three. I hope to the Lords of Kobol they occasionally wash it but basically she's been wearing the same black halter-top and pants since she got to Galactica and she's still wearing them she just has some weird poncho thing over the top this episode. She was barefoot when she was an actual prisoner in the brig, so I just assumed that they gave her her shoes back when the amnesty came into effect and they may literally be the only shoes she has.
Which doesn't make it any less ridiculous that she's making some melodramatic speech about biology and all I can do is stare at her feet.
And with Laura resigning the presidency without actually resigning the presidency, leadership, to the minds of the mutineers, falls to Tom Zarek. He’s not a good choice, but he’s seen as their only choice.
Exactly. I'm kind of surprised that Zarek didn't agitate for an actual vote of no confidence considering that it would almost certainly have passed because Laura was blatantly failing to fulfill the duties of her office.
That said he probably would expect the Quorum to then do the same thing they did last time this happened and vote him out and vote Lee in, so it's better for him to remain the Vice-President and get them all hating on ANY Adama than to get himself instated as President only for Adama to throw another hissy fit and install Lee instead.
