I've been looking at both the BSG Last Supper image, as well as the Da Vinci original, and reading up on the Da Vinci artwork.

Here is what I suspect in the BSG photo -- the players (minus the final cylon) are all there, but they are not taking up their proper place at the table. If you rearrange them, the pic may make more sense.

That said, I think the following are significant items:

- Roslyn: the match and burning chalice represents her faith in her religion. I believe she is looking directly at Adama.
- Gena is pointing at Six, but Six doesn't appear to be looking at anything, which is part of the reason I believe the characters are deliberately misplaced in the picture.
- Saul is looking at the missing person - perhaps in disbelief, perhaps in shock. The book infront of him is closed - but either the back cover is on top (the book was read and is now complete) or is upside down.
- The chalice infront of the missing person -- all I can say is that it is the same color as the toaster's metal. Need to consider it's significance. Does it mean sacrifice? Authority? Is it somehow connected to the glass of water infront of Baltar? Or the glass of water infront of Anders? Is there a connection between Baltar and Anders, and the final cylon?
- Apollo - his back is turned away from the rest - does this signify his regection of all things military? It appears he is taking notes and contemplating someting -- why?
- Baltar - what is he holding in his right hand? Appears to be concealing something.
- Six has a bracelet on her right wrist - kinda looks like a thorn or two coming out of it. Who is she looking at?
- Starbuck has a book infront of her, but unlike the book infront of Saul, the front cover is on top. Unopened? Unread? The start of something? Anders is covering her tatoo with his hands/arms. What is he whispering in her ear?
- Tyrol looking at the knife - it this like the knife in McBeth? Is it related to the knife supposedly in the DaVinci picture - (Peter holding a knife). Does this represent a compusion or a future violent reaction.
- Athena - what is up with her right hand? Looks like if you move her next to Saul, her hand would be resting on top of the grey chalice. The book is opened infront of Athena and Helo - why? Does the book represent their destiny, and that it is being played out right now? They are holding hands
- Adama - does look removed from the scene - is he in disbelief? Rejecting Pres Roslyn's faith?
- Only Prez and Adama are sitting on the table.
- Only Apollo and Baltar have their elbows on the table.
- Only Starbuck's eyes are closed. (Can't see Saul's left eye, but it appears to be open)
- Both Adama and Saul have the Admiral insignia on their uniforms.
- It seems that Ros and Tyrol are the only ones who have only one foot on the ground.
- You can't see Gena and Apollo's right hands.
- You can't see Saul's and Tyrol's left hands.

The more I think about it, the more I think that Billy may be the final cylon. The current president's aide isn't in the picture - why? Maybe to make room for Billy? Not sure...

- Maybe I'm reading too much into the picture....
