    and Starbuck dieing and coming back.
     
    There wasn't a body - she just disappeared. So whether she was killed or not is left to your imagination. Maybe she fell into a trans-warp dimensional flux rift in spacetime or somesuch Star Trekish thing.
     
    Also, remember the prophesy the priest revealed way back when they were still at Kobol: a renegade demon will lead the way to Earth. Has everyone just assumed that referred to a Sharon?
     
    Personally, I'm still holding out for Ellen to be the final Cylon. She was too much of a mess otherwise.
