Now try pulling that one off on network TV during the family hour. The book also describes in detail the being found by Apollo and Starbuck in the ship. It has horns, cloven hoofs, and a prehensile tail. They were going to shoot a scene with a goat and decided against it due to the fact it both looked stupid and the network wasn't promoting demon worship.

They should have used/filmed something. It left things kind of hanging, ambiguously. Been nice to have some sort of resolution to it.
