Will Baltar lead a new social movement?

by Mel Fleming

Now that Dr. Giaus Baltar is out, there are some questions one might consider.

First, will he attempt to have his previous book reprinted? Well it seems in a previous episode, Baltar seemed to get some followers from it, creating a general strike, from which Chief Tyrol almost lost his beloved Cally. Has he struck a never with disgruntled Colonials still? Is there a chance even in the remotest point he gained some followers? Is there underlying unrest among the populace?

Will he ever be allowed to see Caprica Six again? Will she ever get a hearing? Is she entitled to one? Do you see Lampkin getting mixed up in that one? And on what charges? I don’t really see the military desiring to see them both running away somewhere, anytime soon.

Does he dare show his face in public in the first place? There are folks who might have a hero complex about killing him. They might receive all kinds of secret goodies, even if locked away for life in doing so. Does he really have anywhere to hide? I doubt he’ll stay away. there’s just something in his lunatic mind that craves attention, even if negative attention arises.He has a persecution complex, where the more opposition, the more he craves the spotlight.

Personally, I’d kill him, and go to prison for it, proudly
