Grudge match on BSG

Episode 9 of Battlestar Galactica was entitled "Unfinished Business".

The crew of Galactica get to let off steam via a boxing tournament where old grudges can be settled. Chief among them is Apollo and Starbuck. These guys have deep grudges.

The whole boxing tournament thing is just a device to cleverly look back at what happened on new Caprica before the cylons showed up. (Interestingly - Boomer/Sharon/ was the only cylon to feature tonight).

The flashbacks were very revealing and went a long way to explain one or two things.

Difficult to say much more without giving too much of the plot away. It was a bloody episode which held the attention even if it wasn't as exciting as earlier episodes.

And I don't feel sorry for Dee either. After her treatment of Billy in Season 2 - she's got this comin'!
