1. They certainly seemed to be trying to make it look like Tigh was pointing a gun at Adama in the CIC. But if that's true, why do Roslin and Tory's expressions show a complete lack of concern for said development? Nor does Adama look worried. Nor does any in CIC, who seem to be going about their business as usual. Methinks this ia a promo fakeout.

2. Please don't tell me that the sick child Baltar is healing (clearly the son of the High Priestess of Crazy who visited Baltar in his cell asking him to bless a picture of her son) is going to make regular appearances! (Remember that crack you made up above about Boxey? Don't play with fire, friend...)

Excellent point re: the CIC standoff--I subconsciously noticed the lack of concern too, although was suckered by the Adama VO where he's yelling at Tigh and the intentional reference back to Boomer. I guess Saul could just be showing off his prized service weapon ("See? I cleaned the barrel of the gun and everything!"), unless that image was taken the split-second before all hell breaks loose.

Also very astute read re: the target of Baltar's "healing gifts." There's nothing a gritty, apocalyptic drama needs more than more battlefield fodder...I mean, child actors.
