Not an especially exciting episode, but a necessary transition from last week's emotional triumph. I suppose the producers are trying to return to their naïve and offensive U.S./Cylon political allegory with the tribunals, but it wasn't as obvious in Collaborators as in the first episode. Anyways, the tribunals did provide some great moments of suspense. The fearless Ronald D. Moore doesn't seem to care about killing off important characters or adhering to any Sci-Fi conventions and, therefore, the viewer simply can't predict the outcome of any situation. With Baltar being captured, he may return to his role in the original series where he is actively helping the Cylons aboard one of their crafts.
