I loved how the connections are starting to reestablish themselves. Hands reaching out, symbols of hope? I do hope so. The Eight seem more child-like always looking for someone to lead them, even Boomer switching from Caprica to Cavil. I wonder what made Athena grow up, I suppose she was thrust into a situation where she had to. I had a thought that Athena seems to have assumed the mother role for the Eights; she's the first one to really grow up, and by making her own way she's giving the rest of her sisters a parental model to follow. This was such a full episode, I haven't begun to process it all yet.
