It was earlier established that Cylons are nude when they resurrect. After D'Anna (the 3) is awakened, she rolls over just before saying "Boomer is an 8" and you can see she is wearing a top.

Quotes

Dr. Gaius Baltar: [Talking to the Cylon Centurion] There was this dog, see, and the master had placed a bit of food on the edge of its snout. And the dog had to wait until he was told he could eat it.
[the Centurion tilts his head]
Dr. Gaius Baltar: I know. Pathetic. Pathetic, isn't it?

User Reviews

This is why I love Battlestar Galactica

I haven't ever bothered voting or writing comments after watching films and episodes, but this time I just feel I have to.

Why? Because this is my favourite episode of the show so far. It flowed so well (unlike the last episode) with exhilarating, heart-warming, hilarious, and revealing moments at various points.

The music is just fantastic and fits the scenes perfectly, the action and special effects are absolutely stunning, the story progresses dramatically, and the acting is excellent. Roslin's character developed in a major way, and the actor who plays her really deserves an award for her performance in this episode.

Oh, and what about that ending? If the music had gone on for much longer after their embrace, I seriously would have had tears rolling down my cheeks. Simply beautiful...
