Updated 2/19/06:

The SCI FI Channel has announced that the season finale of Battlestar Galactica's second season will be a 2 part special event ending in a 90-minute epiode titled "Lay Down Your Burdens, Part 2".

The episode will air Friday, March 10 from 10 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. Eastern and Pacific time and is described by the network as:

With the presidential campaigning in full swing, the election's outcome hinges upon a core debate -- whether or not to abandon the search for Earth when the Galactica crew discovers a habitable planet. When the election begins to swing in favor of Baltar (James Callis) -- a man whom Roslin is convinced is a Cylon collaborator -- the incumbent president must decide whether or not to take drastic measures for the greater good.

Things become even further complicated when the Cylons, led by Caprica Six (Tricia Helfer) and Sharon (Grace Park), find the planet and offer humanity a stunning proposal of peace.

In a Chicago Tribune interview, Battlestar Galactica producer Ron Moore, revealed some interesting clues and SPOIILERS for the remaining episodes of the second season which will air its 18th episode called "DOWNLOADED" this coming Friday.

There's an episode down the line that we're really excited about, the entire episode is told from the Cylon point of view: what their society is like, what they go through during reincarnation and when they're born again. We really get inside the Cylon [society] and get to view that for the first time.

There's a two-part season finale. We throw some real curveballs. There are some pretty major changes in how we do business. It's really going to catch people off guard.

This Friday's episode of Battlestar Galactica on the SciFi Channel will be titled "Scar"

Synopsis:
Galactica's overworked Viper pilots fight to protect miners who are extracting vital metals from an asteroid from a damaged Cylon raider nicknamed Scar, a living ship that continues to assault the fleet with hit-and-run attacks. Elsewhere, Kara Thrace (Starbuck) butts heads with Lt. Katraine (Kat).

Episode Quotes of Note:
“I can't get Andrews ot of my head” – Starbuck

“You used to be the hottest stick on the fleet... Now, you are just a recless drunk” – Kat

Spoiler Interview:
In a recent interview Katee Sackhoff discusses the upcoming episode of Battlestar Galactica on the SciFi Channel. She says:

It's a complete departure from whom she's been for two seasons, I went to (executive producers) Ron Moore and David Eick and said, 'I don't get it. I don't like it.' I thought, 'What happened to my character? She's drinking all the time.'

The whole episode stems from her wanting to go back to Caprica and get Anders (the man she fell in love with, played by Michael Trucco). The likelihood of him being alive is growing small, and she knows he's probably dead and she loves him...it's a great episode.

Prediction:
We know President Roslin is on her deathbed (see Doc Cottle 's quote above), and now it appears she is having flashbacks.
We know the “The Cylon/Human is carrying an amalgam” (see Gaius' quote above). An amalgam is a combination of diverse elements or a mixture.

a·mal·gam n.

Any of various alloys of mercury with other metals, especially:
---An alloy of mercury and silver used in dental fillings.
---An alloy of mercury and tin used in silvering mirrors.
A combination of diverse elements; a mixture: an amalgam of strength, reputation, and commitment to ethical principles.

Prediction;President Roslin is on her deathbed and Baltar is being prepared to take over the presidency while at the same time he's working on a cure for President Roslin’s cancer based on a study of unborn Cylon/Human fetus Sharon is carrying. The mystery amalgam provides the key to curing cancer and saving President Roslin. Roslin wake up from her flashbacks with a dambing "bit of information about Dr. Baltar".

Cylon baby holds the key to a miracle cure. Roslin discovers that Baltar helped the Cylons destroy the Colonies.
