I don't think RDM is stupid enough to do a dream-reset episode. The whole point of BSG was to get away from the reset-button sci-fi mentality and get back to dramatic, allegory based stories.

Also, in a prior episode before pegasus, a picture of Shelly appeared as a suspect cylon with the other known cylons on a desk.

Also, about Shelly's disappearance, I'm surprised to see everything but the most logical reason for her disapperance. I've seen debates on trekbbs and gateworld where people say she vaporized herself, beamed herself off, was really a hologram, etc. But the most logical reason is that she knocked out the gaurds (most likely with an aerosol) following her and slipped off the ship before they woke up and the two guards following her lied about it and said she disappeared into thin air which would be accepted as humanity doesn't know the full extent of cylon technology.

The human cylon models have demonstrated super strength and super endurance. It's not a huge stretch to think they can run much faster then a human. The guards are following her a few steps behind and she turns a corner and steps on the gas. By the time they round the corner she down the hall and around the next corner. Maybe only a few dozen feet the way the passages on Galatica twist and turn. Once she loses the guards it's only a matter of blending in with the crowd, or hiding in the vent shafts until the coast is clear and she can sneak onto a transport. From the guards point of view she dissapeared into thin air, but only because they thought they were following someone who could only walk/run at a normal human pace.
