Tyrol roams the Earth and finds a wall with a shadow on it. He leans over and touches it, which leads to some sort of flashback where Tyrol is walking through a crowded produce market. As he picks up a piece of fruit, a nuclear blast is set off.

Sam Anders gets his own experience, finding part of a guitar in the sand. He picks it up and plays a few bars of “All Along the Watchtower.” Wait, is Anders a reincarnated version of Bob Dylan? He finds Tyrol to bond over the fact that they used to live on Earth 2,000 years ago, and so was Tory.

Anders then asks all the questions fans are currently asking. How did they live on Earth 2,000 years ago and die in a nuclear holocaust? How did they come to be in the colonies? Why did they think they were human?

Finally, Tigh returns to Earth to get everyone to pack up so the fleet can move on. He sits down for a chat with D’Anna, who has no interest in leaving with everyone else. She doesn’t want to run again, have Cavil catch up with them and engage in another battle. She just wants to settle on Earth and live out her years where her ancestors died.

Finally, Saul walks out into the water and has a memory of his life on Earth, when he was in the middle of a bank robbery with his wife, Ellen!  As she dies right before the nuclear blast, she promises they will be reborn together.  Ellen Tigh is the final frakking Cylon!  That is very cool and unexpected.
