Caprica 1x09 End of Line airs tonight

Just a reminder that the last episode of the first half of the season, "End of Line," airs tonight (Friday) at 9/8c. If you are unable to tune in live, SyFy Rewind will have it up tomorrow. It's also the place to go to catch up with previous episodes or watch them with commentary from the producers and cast. (And the place where you can get counted as a viewer even if you don't have a Nielsen box. DVR would be another option. Just saying.)

"End of Line" was written by Michael Taylor and directed by Roxann Dawson.

Hope you enjoy.

Pictures and teaser for 1x09 End of Line

NBC Universal has released some promotional stills for "End of Line" and SyFy has posted the teaser. Here is an extended synopsis:

When Daniel (Eric Stoltz) finally sets a deadline for resetting the U-87 Cylon – and unknowingly ending Zoe-A’s (Alessandra Torresani) existence as she knows it – she makes a desperate attempt to save herself. But when her plan backfires, she finds herself out of time and out of options.

Furious with a recent comeuppance, Barnabas (James Marsters) ignites his feud with Clarice (Polly Walker) into an all-out war. Trapped in the middle is Lacy (Magda Apanowicz), who is forced to make a decision she may regret forever.

Daniel makes a confession to an already reeling Amanda (Paula Malcomson) that sends her over the edge.

Side note: You might wanna check out the podcast for "Ghosts in the Machine" on SyFy's site. David Eick has been spilling some really interesting stuff in the last two weeks about the show's general change of direction, the storylines that were dropped or changed, the original plan for the crazy Amanda storyline, what was originally going to happen to the dog, etc.

More spoilers for episodes 1x08 & 1x09

A few more details about tonight's ep and the midseason finale that airs next week showed up on SpoilerTV and AICN. Some of the spoilers (especially those for 1x09, "End of Line") are pretty major, so don't scroll past Serge if you don't wanna know.

Episode 1x08, "Ghosts in the Machine," (teaser, clip) airs tonight at 9/8c on SyFy.

SpoilerTV:

This week: Daniel is convinced that Zoe is in the robot body, and puts her through a series of increasingly disturbing tests to try to get her to reveal herself. The second to last test is dousing her with gasoline and setting her on fire, but it's the last test that will make you gasp. Also: Tamara's back and we find out who Joseph's guide in V-world is.

Next week: This was a mostly completed cut of the episode; the only things I noticed that were incomplete were an FX shot in a Pyramid stadium and a continuity error involving a secret message and a bicycle chain. It looks like we'll be getting some new cast members when the show comes back from hiatus, because two characters bite the dust in this episode -- one of these deaths is a shocking murder. Robo-Zoe tries to escape the lab. The last scene is extremely brief and devastating.

AICN:

1x08 Ghosts in the Machine - "Daniel wages psychological warfare to flush out Zoe when he suspects her avatar is hiding in the Cylon; Joseph is guided to a nightclub in New Cap City that may lead him to Tamara; Vergis tries to drive a wedge between Amanda and Daniel."

1x09 End of Line - "Daniel sets a deadline to reset the Cylon, forcing Zoe to find a way to save herself; Barnabas clashes with Clarice, with Lacy caught in the middle; Daniel makes a confession to Amanda."
