Tigh's a ball of self-doubt wrapped in bluster and ineffective decisionmaking. He always has been. He's a drunk with a bad temper who's lucky enough to have someone who makes decisions for him.
I only care about who the final Cylon is because the Cylons are so torqued up about it.
But here's how I want the series to end. Mix and match to suit:
- The Cylons beat the humans to Earth.
- The Cylons and Colonials fight over Earth and destroy it.
- It's about 1000 BCE. Colonials and Cylons, unable to fight any longer, set up proxy wars on Earth between religions, creating the myths and cultures that we know. N.B. the monotheists do pretty well for themselves in the end.
- Roslyn actually dies for reals, not knowing if she's led the Colonials to Earth.
- The Penultimate Four discover that they're not sleepers at all, that they're completely conscious and possess as much free will as anyone else. That makes Tori a regular scheming, violent person as much as it makes Tyrol a loving but troubled man. Tigh's still a dick and Anders is just some guy who likes to fly planes, kick ass, and fuck his hot wife.
- The Cylons, or some faction within, wind up allying themselves with the Colonials and wind up living together, miscegenating hotly.
