Yes, I definitely felt like she was at least subconsciously aware of who he was the whole time. (One of the reasons I wish they'd cut the "You sound like my father!" line; it was unnecessary and kind of ruined the subtlety for me.)

I think the reason I'm super-eager for them to make it clear what Kara is, just beyond my own over-investment in the story, is that it's a real loose end otherwise. And I'm actually happy to accept just "it was mystic" a lot of the time. Like before these episodes (like, before No Exit), I would honestly have been willing to accept us never knowing and having it be some magical, mystical event that was never explained. But now that they're teasing us with all this stuff about Daniel and Dreilide and stuff it's gonna feel like a real cop out if they stop short of making it clear.

It's not giving us a mystic set up and saying, "explain it yourself," at that point. It's giving you 80% of the answer and witholding the final 20% of it like a carrot on a stick. *nervous!*

Srsly. Plus, SHE CAME BACK FROM THE DEAD AND LED THEM TO THEIR FORMER HOMELAND. Why will no one figure out how special my girl is??

One thing I totally forgot to mention up there is Kara's tie to the music. And the Final Five. And specialness.

Because yeah, she doesn't just have a destiny, she has one specifically tied to the Cylon Race and the CREATORS of the current Cylon race.

Okay, so maybe Hera magically knew this song on her own while Kara had to be taught it by someone else, but she appeared in the nebula that sang that song to the FF. Yeah they'd been hearing it for a while, but at the crisis point, there's Kara in her beautiful viper, and given that it was the song that made them return to that viper again, and given that, as you point out, the whole thing Kara lead them to, in hindsight, WASN'T the promised land for humans but the former home of the Cylon... Dude, Kara like...is that music.

Heh. Yeah, I liked Hera 2.0 better, but maybe she was getting too big? The new one just had too much makeup on, I think.

I guess due to the break in filming that could be true, but then again, this kid looked older than the last Hera to me.

And yes! The make-up! I couldn't put my finger on what looked wrong with her, but yeah, she looked like she was wearing blusher and stuff and on a three-year old that's kinda creepy. And not in the awesome Hera 2.0 way either...
