What were some theories or ideas you had about the mysteries and direction of BSG that were correct and which ones were wrong?

Here are mine,

1. I thought the last Final 5 to be revealed was going to be Dualla.

2. I thought the Daniel (Number 7) from BSG was the same Daniel (Greystone) from Caprica.

3. For a long time I thought the resurrected Starbuck was a trap set up by the cylons to bring humanity to its final destruction. I dropped this belief after the events of "Someone to Watch Over Me".

4. I was convinced that the fleet was going to find either present day Earth or an Earth of the future (to us) which was also nuked to hell.

I thought the last cylon would turn out to be the Galactica itself. Would've been cool though, huh? LOL

She couldn't have been a hallucination since she had physical interaction with other people in the fleet so my educated guess is that she was indeed an angel incarnate.

Yes, all those she shot just suffered heart attacks upon sight of her aiming a gun.

I actually thought everybody was going to die at the end except for a few a.k.a. Adam and Eve.

Well if we are on the quest to explain things...

I know this thread has spolier warning on it...but this is a biggie...

Click to reveal..

Does anyone have any ideas as to why Dualla shot herself? It really seemed out of context to me, I was wondering if there would be any explanation in the storyline but it was kinda like... getting back with lee, everything is rosy, go to locker room and blam!

I was thinking, had she seen something in her locker that triggered it or was she beeing manipulated by the cyclons/ find out she was a cyclon etc but nothing was ever really explained... or was it? and I've missed it????

She killed herself for the simple reason that she just couldn't take it anymore and lost all sense of hope after the discovery of Earth 2 being a nuked wasteland. Things SEEMED to be fine when she agreed to go to dinner with Lee and you see her enjoying his company but that was done for two reasons. 1. To give the audience a false sense that everything was ok and 2. She had already decided to kill herself and she wanted some final happiness and closure with Lee, the man she still loved. Ron Moore goes into great detail about her reasoning in the podcast for that episode.

Not sure how I came to that. I think maybe it was when they talked about spraying the cylon stuff on the hull to repair it.
