BattleStar Galactica:Taking a Break from All Your Worries

The title of this episode kinds sums it all up - it took a break from the fast action, hard paced plot line and decided to take a break and explore the human condition.
Gaius is definitely delusional - he thinks he's a Cylon -
We have 4 characters in a marriage that shouldn't really be married to one another
We have a makeshift bar created in a battlestar
LSD or some type of hallucinogen is used to interrogate Gaius
Revenge rears it's head with Gaeta looking to take out Baltar
Madam President plays the nice heavy for once
It almost felt like I was watching a prime time soap opera and not my favorite Sci Fi show. Some people may like the exploration of the human condition and after several weeks high impact tension, it's nice to take a little break. But I need tension in my drama. I really don't give a rat's ass about Lee vs Starbuck Lee vs Dualla Starbuck vs Lee Starbuck vs Anders. One too many loopbacks for me.
So, I guess, I wasn't too hot on this episode, I'd rather see more drama.
