(WARNING! The following contains spoilers for last night’s season final of Battlestar Galactica. STOP reading if you haven’t yet watched it)

I’ve been VERY Battlestar Galactica focused today. Last night’s season finale was so good I can’t stop thinking about it. Many questions were raised and some were even answered when Kristin Veitch called up BSG creator Ronald D. Moore today and flat out asked him about last night’s twists and turns.

So will Starbuck be back for reals? Are the Cylons that were revealed last night actually Cylons? Will Bill and Laura be swapping spit in Season 4? . Here’s a sampling of Krisin’s chat with Ron Moore. Click here for the full interview.

The identities of the four Cylons are so shocking! Tory’s always been a little iffy, but the loyalties of Anders, Tigh and the Chief seemed beyond question, and they led the resistance on New Caprica. None of them were the usual suspects. Is there any sort of relationship between that sort of human loyalty and their Cylonity?
Moore: I don’t know that it’s directly connected. If you’re asking if that was part of the plan to have them take that cover, then no. They’re very much unaware of how they could be Cylons, they’re confused by the knowledge, and they don’t have an agenda. It’s not the same as when Sharon was a Cylon—they haven’t been to the Cylon parties. All they really know is they’re Cylons. They have this revelation to themselves of what their true nature is, but beyond that they have no idea what the agenda is or if they have an agenda or how this could have happened. They’re very much in the dark, much like the audience is.

And just because there will be debate, can you confirm that they are Cylons?

Moore: Yes, they’re Cylons.

Will we meet the fifth Cylon eventually, and when?
Moore: Yes, I think we will eventually reveal the fifth Cylon. “When” is a tougher question to answer, because we haven’t really decided ourselves.

Now, Starbuck seems to be back, but is Katee Sackhoff contracted to do season four? Is there more Starbuck story to tell?
Moore: Yes, Katee will be back with us for season four. We couldn’t let her go.

Here’s a big one that I’m personally quite invested in. Kmags wants to know: “Will Roslin and Adama ever get together?” And I think she means in the traditional, make-out, slobber-all-over-each-other sense.
Moore: [Laughs.] I don’t know if we’ll ever get to that point. We’re moving that relationship forward into the fourth season, [but] whether it actually gets to actually swapping saliva, I’m not sure.

Is Hera the first human-Cylon hybrid, or were there maybe other ones before her?

Moore: Uh…I don’t think I’ll answer that one.

    I can’t stop thinking about it either. I dreamed last night that Apollo was a cylon. I wish I could find their version of that Dylan song somewhere! It’s haunting me now. I want to hear it again.

    The song will be on the soundtrack, but that won’t be out ’til around mid-August.

    Did you see Starbuck kicked Bauer’s ass in that Chicago Tribune poll?!
