Then you will all laugh with glee. Intrigued? Then it&#8217;s time for Mark to post predictions for <em>Battlestar Galactica<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->Let&#8217;s start off with my season three predictions first.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>I truly feel that the season two finale uprooted basically any running theory I had, so this is a lot harder than I expected. So I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll start with the easy stuff, and move on to the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153bigger\u00e2\u20ac\u009d predictions. Here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s my first one: We will get flashback scenes dealing with the time spent on New Caprica from these characters\u00c2\u00a0<em>specifically<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0in terms of focus, meaning that the bulk of the flashback is about them. They cannot just appear in the background. And I have to get them all right, or it doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t count. So: Cally, Tyrol, Starbuck, Anders, Roslin, Adama, Lee, Dualla, and Baltar. Extra points (I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m self-assigning points FUCK YOU) if this all happens in ONE episode. <strong>I AM THE GREATEST EVER. I am going to arbitrarily give myself TEN POINTS for this because I AM A GODDAMN GENIUS.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Cally is pregnant with a girl. <strong>lol no<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Tyrol shaves his beard by the end of the season. <strong>YES.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>I won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t like two episodes. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>NO. I actually rather liked them all!<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li>By the end of season three, Baltar will not be president. Roslin will be re-elected. (I feel this is kind of logical at this point? BUT BY GODS I COULD BE SO WRONG.) <strong>BUT GODS BE DAMNED, I WAS RIGHT.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Adama will not shave off his mustache all season. (HE BETTER NOT.) <strong>WILL NEVER STOP MOURNING THIS.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>This is like my free bingo card because I kind of feel like I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m going to get 90% of these wrong, but: Bear McReary\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s music will be\u00c2\u00a0<em>awesome<\/em>. <strong>It was!<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>All right, let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s get to some\u00c2\u00a0<em>real<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0shit. Anders dies by the end of the season. As much as I like seeing Starbuck happy, and as amazing as their dynamic is, I think the show is going to move towards putting Lee and Starbuck together in the final season. <strong>LOL NOPE.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>So, the Cylon plan! I think that Caprica Six and Boomer will reveal in the opening episode that the Cylons have a new moral system that will allow the humans and the Cylons to co-exist. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>You know, I say no. This is not the case.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li>Running off that (and sort of its own prediction), the humans and Cylons will\u00c2\u00a0<em>try<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0to co-exist for at least one full episode. <strong>I&#8217;m actually not going to count this either. The humans never really <em>tried<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0to co-exist. They were forced to.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>I predict that New Caprica will be abandoned by the end of the season. <strong>YES.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Roslin will find new information about the location of Earth that will put her against Baltar and REKINDLE OLD HATREDS. Basically, I just want to see them battle again. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Nope.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li>The fleet\/New Caprica colony (I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not sure what to call them anymore???) will learn that Baltar colluded with the Cylons back on Caprica. <strong>Oh god&#8230;the whole fleet did not, though many people heard about Roslin&#8217;s vision. So I say no.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>So, Adama ordered the fleet that was orbiting New Caprica away, but we never learned\u00c2\u00a0<em>where<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0they went. I imagine he must have had a destination in mind, right? So we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll find out that the location he had the ships jump to is one we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve seen before. <strong>Nope.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Kat dies in season three. I only say this because someone has to die, and what story does she have left to tell? <strong>can i take this back \ud83d\ude41 \ud83d\ude41 \ud83d\ude41<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>I say we learn what two more models of the humanoid Cylons look like, and one of them is a face we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve seen before. <strong>LOL I HAD SO MUCH HOPE.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Sharon finds out what happens to Hera and kills someone in response. <strong>I only get half a point.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Gaeta betrays Baltar in order to help President Roslin\u00c2\u00a0<em>or<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0Admiral Adama. I know I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m cheating by listing both. I DON\u00e2\u20ac\u2122T CARE. <strong>FUCK, THIS COUNTS. I mean he <em>inherently<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0helped her, right?<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Helo and Sharon get married by the end of the season. <strong>YES. BRILLIANCE.\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>And the big reveal at the end of season three? The humans find Earth. <strong>lol no BUT FUCKING STARBUCK DID.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>So! That means I got 17.5 POINTS. Only because of the bonus points from the first question. I was somewhat prepared! And then I WAS TOTALY NOT EVEN CLOSE.<\/p>\n<p>Well, this should be sufficiently embarrassing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Mark&#8217;s Clearly Brilliant Predictions For The Fourth (And Final) Season of <em>Battlestar Galactica<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I&#8217;m going to start out in a more general sense both to predict what I think what <em>will<\/em> be answered on the show before specifics, and so that I can actually have a chance to get at least two things right.<\/li>\n<li>Okay, first proper prediction: We will learn why we keep hearing that everything has happened before and shall happen again.<\/li>\n<li>We will learn who the final Cylon model is and it will <em>not<\/em> be someone we know.<\/li>\n<li>We will learn why the children of humans and Cylons are important to the future.<\/li>\n<li>We will learn where Starbuck was during the time she was &#8220;dead.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>We will learn what the Cylons &#8220;Plan&#8221; was this entire time.<\/li>\n<li>Okay, now on to everything I will get wrong. Starbuck is not a Cylon, but she <em>did<\/em> die.<\/li>\n<li>The fleet will find Earth and get there before the Cylon fleet.<\/li>\n<li>The fleet will learn of the identity of the Final Five Cylons by the midpoint of the season.<\/li>\n<li>We will find out that the Opera House that everyone has visions of is actually on Earth.<\/li>\n<li>Gaius Baltar will become the leader of a cult in season four. LOOK IT&#8217;S A GUESS.<\/li>\n<li>We will find out that the &#8220;Head&#8221; versions of Six and Baltar that each other see and interact with are manifestations of their minds, but are actually connected to one another. Wow, that is a terrible prediction.<\/li>\n<li>Zarek will die.<\/li>\n<li>So will Helo. And that is the day I sob myself to sleep.<\/li>\n<li>Another model of Cylon will be boxed.<\/li>\n<li>Three will somehow make a re-appearance in season four.<\/li>\n<li>Gaeta will totally make out with me in this season. Okay, that&#8217;s ridiculous, but why can&#8217;t this gorgeous man just be ALL MINE.<\/li>\n<li>When Cally learns that her husband is a Cylon, she will initially plan to kill him, but will give it up and accept him as he is.<\/li>\n<li>Roslin, on the other hand, will have Tory executed.<\/li>\n<li>Adama will immediately side with Tigh regardless of his Cylon nature.<\/li>\n<li>Starbuck will be strangely okay with Anders being a Cylon.<\/li>\n<li>WE WILL FIND OUT WHAT THE <em>FUCK<\/em> BALTAR WHISPERED TO GAETA DURING THAT INTERROGATION SCENE. Please tell me!<\/li>\n<li>And my big whopper of a prediction: The humans will have a chance to wipe out the Cylons definitely at the end of the series, but will ultimately choose not to.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I AM TOTALLY PREPARED, RIGHT? oh god <em>no I&#8217;m not<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the fourth season of Battlestar Galactica, stuff happens, and I am going to try to guess what it is.
