"What is 'The Event'?"
"As Simon briefly hinted at, The Event is a synchronous species-wide reproductive event, a mystical evolutionary step that has been predicted in his people's sacred scrolls. Simon also made it clear to Sean that mankind would not survive it. So what does it all mean for our characters and for humanity in general? The planet's arrival - one of the foretold signs from the scrolls - confirms that The Event is more than a religious myth from an extra-terrestrial civilization. It is real - and it's coming."

Part of the Deciphered Scroll
Soon Heavenly Bodies shall align
And the promised Event shall arrive
And the Righteous few shall become Many

Death shall be Life
Fathers shall be reborn
And The Pure shall prevail
And the Slaves be vanquished
And we shall all return and inherit the Earth

The Chosen One shall rise among the Slaves
To lead the Guardians of the Earth

Protector and Destroyer
Key to their future, Hand of our doom
Only the Chosen One can freely walk the board of fate
And unweave our destinies

And we shall fight to stop the Chosen One
This we know.
 Quoting: The Event

A message sent from Dempseys Office:

To: Phillip Chandler
From: Dempsey, James

Subject: URGENT: Replacement
Phil,

I would like to personally thank you for all of your diligent and talented work throughout the years on our anti-senescence project.
You are a good friend, scientist, and philosopher. I have come to accept the fact that I can not extend my life forever, and it is time for me to pass the scepter to a new generation. To that end, I believe that I have found a worthy and capable replacement.

In a short time, you will need to make contact with a young man named Sean Walker. My office will make arrangements for that, and in the meantime, will supply you with his detailed medical history, blood tests, and DNA sequence in order for you to begin customizing the telomere treatment to suit him. I understand the unique challenges that you and he will face, so it is imperative that you proceed immediately.

Please give my best to Sally and the kids.

Your friend always,
James

Could be. Dempsey knew Seans fate, so it could be connected.

Re: "What is 'The Event'?"
Because of the way the EVENT is stylized with the left facing 2nd "E", I think Sophia is the mother of that whole race of beings.

If this series cancels before concluding I think I may never watch another serial show until I can get the whole darn thing at once from Netflix.

grrr

Sounds like the biblical Great Tribulation which is a jump into another system where some survive and but most die.

Re: "What is 'The Event'?"
I for one loved the show-- too many loose ends-- I would write and encourage another season.

They make the mistake of making the beginning too weird--flash backs and no indication of what it was really about--didn't target a broad enough audience.

People of GLP knew what was up-- but to keep it on the air "normal" people have to be interested.

The break between the first and second season was TOO long. People lost interest.

I want to know about the Baby the scroll, the planet, (on fire no less), yada, yada, yada----

Re: "What is 'The Event'?"
The problem I have with these new scifi shows like SGU,BSG,Caprica,Lost ect... they are presented like soap operas and it takes forever to get to the logical point. The writers or producers drag the story line on and on and on and on with trivial back story, flashbacks. Yawn. You could miss the show for a month and not miss anything of significance. No wonder they can't captivate a audience with exception of the die hards.

Another problem with modern story telling is the overuse of flashbacks. People are linear thinking and when a writer pops too many non-linear scenes into a show, you start losing people. People are not NL video editors. This must be another fad edgy thing they are teaching film students, well it sucks! Play the damn thing out in chronological order! Perfect example of this behavior, the movie "Vantage Point". You couldn't get pop corn or take a piss watching this movie because it would screw you all up.

True. A piece of the scroll is missing (burnt), so the whole scroll wasn't deciphered.

I don't know but it was a pretty cool finale. Definitely didn't expect them to bring the whole planet.
