Felix Gaeta - Right or Wrong? Hero or Villain?
February 11th 2009 02:31
On the one hand Gaeta had a point, the fleet is now accepting an enemy within their fold, they're also going to be accepting enemy technology. They're giving access to the enemy who wiped out humanity and placing them and their technology on civilian vessels. Smart move Adama. Teaming up with Zarek though, bad move, though he too had some good points, that brought all manner of things into question.. when does care of the fleet enter into a military dictatorship type situation. When the military leader is in bed - literally and figuratively - with the president of humanity.. lines become blurred. The difference bring I guess... Adama isn't a terrorist or murderer.
Gaeta was a dumbass... the other side to the coin is he was a traitor with no care of forethought to those he's worked with and has attachments to. Poor Hoshi to nam but one, but also all those killed arbitrarily in Gaeta's little game. Surely taking Adama and Tigh and Lee into a room and placing his grievances on the table might have been a better start point than all guns blazing? Others who seemed to just turn included Racetrack, which is so odd and I'm still trying to come to terms with what will happen to the likes of her and Seelix.
So what do you think? Gaeta... hero or villain. The more I've pondered the more I'm thinking a little of both. Never a Gaeta fan overly, I did see his points, I just think he went about them in the worst possible way and with the worst possible partner.
