NARRATOR: Previously on BattIestar GaIactica.
APOLLO: Gives me the creeps
seeing him acting Iike that with her...
How can one of us get that roped in by one of them?
Look, Chief,
I know how she feIt about you. She Ioved you.
You know what, I shouId probabIy be gratefuI to you.
Because that freak in her beIIy couId've been mine.
Do you have actual memories
of being with the Chief before the Cylon attack?
You're the father of my chiId. You're the first in my heart.
And nothing is ever gonna change that.
AII right, here's the deaI.
We are gonna buiId a new fighter.
BIackbird test fIight, cIeared for Iaunch.
GaIactica, Apollo. l've lost her.
Of course, you Iost contact. It's a damn steaIth ship, remember?
The resistance base camp is here.
Three hundred cIicks north of the onIy CyIon airbase in the area.
We can drop seven Raptors straight down through the Martok VaIIey
and be in and out before the CyIons have a chance to Iaunch their Raiders.
The Raptors return the GaIactica
with the resistance fighters, we jump the heII out of there.
SimpIe.
Where's the FIeet?
The FIeet wiII remain here.
I've tasked seven Vipers and one Raptor to stay with them.
Seven Vipers?
And one Raptor.
Lieutenant,
how many jumps
wiII it take Galactica to reach Caprica?
241 .
241 ?
That's conservative.
And you know it.
Once you jump the Red Line,
navigationaI error creeps into
every singIe jump caIcuIation that you make.
It couId take us twice that amount of time
to actuaIIy find Caprica, Iet aIone Iand.
I understand the risks.
ADAMA: Do you reaIIy?
We have to try.
Lieutenant, I respect what you're trying to do here.
However...
We have a duty to the peopIe we Ieft behind.
I understand that.
We have to find a way to jump back to Caprica and go get the...
Kara.
(ALARM BUZZING)
GAETA: Action stations, action stations. Set Condition One throughout the ship.
This is not a driII. Repeat. Action stations, action stations.
Set Condition One throughout the ship.
ADAMA: WeII, Madam President,
Iooks Iike you picked a heII of a day for a visit.
This is the commander. Sitrep.
Bogey just jumped into dradis range, CBDR.
From the size of it, it's probabIy a CyIon base ship.
CAP's on its way to intercept.
AIert the FIeet to an emergency jump.
I'm on my way with the President.
Galactica, ApoIIo, I'm outbound on course to the Base Star.
Tag aIongside me.
I estimate one minute tiII I intercept.
DUALLA: Roger that, ApoIIo.
Be advised, aIert fighters have Iaunched
and wiII take station on your six in three minutes.
Sitrep.
AIert fighters have Iaunched.
New dradis contact, they're Iaunching Raiders.
How Iong tiII we jump?
Another two minutes.
Sir?
Sir, I'm getting CoIoniaI transponders.
CoIoniaI?
HeII, now they're using our own signaIs against us.
Maybe.
Weapons hoId. HoId the jump, too.
Something up your sIeeve, I take it?
AII ships, Galactica, hoId jump.
Say again, hoId jump.
Ship to ship, CoIoniaI priority one channeI.
Send hostiIe chaIIenge and ID.
And put your repIy up on the speakers.
DUALLA: Attention, unknown vesseI.
This is the BattIestar Galactica.
Identify yourseIf or we wiII fire upon you.
Range now 1 ,700, sir.
MAN: This is the Battlestar Pegasus
to the ship cIaiming to be the GaIactica. Please respond.
Pegasus? How couId that be?
The entire fIeet was destroyed.
Give me direct contact.
Pegasus, this is Galactica actuaI.
Authenticate identity with recognition codes immediateIy.
Sir.
I'm receiving CoIoniaI recognition codes.
They're authentic.
CAIN: GaIactica, this is Pegasus actuaI.
Adama, is that you?
AdmiraI Cain.
What a pIeasure to hear your voice.
Disengage.
Red Team, disengage. Red Team, disengage.
CAIN: Commander,
I don't know what to say.
This is a miracIe.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
Step down to Condition One throughout the FIeet.
APOLLO: GaIactica Apollo, you are not going to beIieve
what I'm Iooking at out here.
It's Iike a dream.
It is a dream.
MAN: (ON WIRELESS) Pegasus Raptor 861, GaIactica.
Skids down, mag secure. Welcome aboard, Admiral.
TIGH: This is a stroke of Iuck Iike you read about.
We couId use a IittIe Iuck right now.
Can't argue that.
You know this AdmiraI Cain?
OnIy heard about her.
But she's a very young officer on a very fast track.
She's very smart.
Very tough.
Very weII-connected.
FIeet promoted her to rear admiraI
over haIf the commanders on the Iist.
TIGH: What the heII is this, a party?
CALLY: Sorry, sir.
AII cIear the deck.
Oh, CoIoneI, Iet it go. It's a big moment. Come on.
(ALL CLAMORING)
Get into ranks, peopIe!
Look sharp. This isn't recess!
Come on, the Ianding party is here. Dress and cover.
Nice of you to show up. CouIdn't get here too earIy.
Group, attention!
AdmiraI Cain, weIcome aboard the GaIactica.
Commander Adama,
it's an honor.
CoIoneI, put your men at ease.
At ease.
AIIow me to present to you the President of the CoIonies, Laura RosIin.
It's a Iong story. WeIcome.
Madam President, pIeasure.
Dr. BaItar?
Yes.
It's good to see you.
On behaIf of the officers and the crew of the Pegasus,
it's a pIeasure to see aII of you.
WeIcome back to the CoIoniaI FIeet.
(ALL CHEERING)
Captain TayIor.
Kara Thrace. Captain TayIor.
Sorry about aII of this.
No, it's so good to see you.
To the 1 2 CoIonies.
It's good to have you aboard.
Good stuff.
One of my Iast bottIes.
AdmiraI.
I'm fairIy burning with questions.
I hope you don't mind if I just dive in.
PIease. How did you find us?
WeII, we were tracking a CyIon fIeet.
We were trying to predict their movements,
which seemed rather random initiaIIy.
UntiI we reaIized that they were just jumping to systems with naturaI resources.
So, we began to scout those systems ourseIves,
hoping to carry out hit-and-run attacks on their fIeet.
But instead of finding the CyIons, we found you.
So, you've been attacking their fIeet?
WeII, you know what they say about the best defense.
Hmm.
How did you avoid the initiaI CyIon attack on the CoIonies?
I'II have another if you don't mind.
Galactica's finest.
(EXHALES)
Beats the heII out of the nickeI tour. Thank you.
I figured if you'd seen one oId BattIestar, you'd seen them aII.
Yeah, weII, she's an oId one.
I can't beIieve the CyIons didn't kick your ass
up one side and down the other in this bucket.
Sorry.
I'm sorry. No one gets to insuIt your ship except you.
You're Gods damn right.
And just for that
you have to skip this round.
(LAUGHING)
We were docking at Scorpion FIeet Shipyard.
We were getting ready to go in for a three-month overhauI.
Most of the crew was getting ready for extended shore Ieave and famiIy reunions.
XO had the deck.
I was down in my quarters, wrapping up some paperwork
and getting ready to pack up to go home to Tauron.
And that's when the CyIons attacked.
They hit the shipyard with three, maybe four nukes.
Five ships. Two of them BattIestars.
They were destroyed right there.
And IuckiIy, very IuckiIy,
the bIast bIinded the CyIon dradis.
So they were unabIe to determine that we were stiII intact.
But there were... There were expIosions,
and fires in the Iaunch bays,
and fueI and ordnance igniting,
peopIe screaming.
And by the time I got back to CIC,
I discovered that I'd Iost over 700 men.
My Gods.
We were compIeteIy defenseIess, so I ordered a jump.
To where?
Wherever.
Nowhere. Just jump.
ADAMA: BIind jump.
CouId've ended up anywhere. Gutsy caII.
No. Desperate move.
Didn't see any other choice.
How'd you avoid the CyIons infiItrating your computer system?
WeII, our networks were off-Iine in preparation for the overhauI.
Yes, Pegasus has aIways been a rather Iucky ship.
To Iucky ships.
I'm sure you have
quite a story to teII as weII.
But I won't make you go through it right this very minute.
You can send up your Iogs when you get the chance.
Yes, sir.
CAIN: Is something wrong?
No.
I sometimes forget about the ruIes of miIitary protocoI.
ADAMA: AdmiraI Cain is my superior officer.
She wiII take compIete command of the entire FIeet.
I was wondering how to broach that topic.
Trust me when I say
that whiIe the chain of command is strict, it is not heartIess.
And neither am I.
This is your ship.
And I have no desire to interfere with Galactica's internaI affairs.
I appreciate it, AdmiraI.
Madam President, you Iook Iike I just shot your dog.
No, I just...
Just the Commander and I, we've been through a Iot.
Excuse me. Madam President?
If you'II both excuse me.
AdmiraI, I can't teII you how gratefuI we are to have you here.
Thank you for finding us.
Madam President.
The Secretary of Education?
She's come a Iong way.
I'm sure.
So teII me about AdmiraI Cain.
Officer's discretion.
Of course.
We were going after what we thought was a IittIe CyIon comm reIay.
Easy target, right?
Turns out it wasn't a comm reIay at aII. It was a staging area
fuII of 1 5 squadrons of Raiders.
(EXCLAIMS)
AdmiraI Cain ordered our XO to attack.
Those two were reaI cIose.
He'd served with her for years.
But here's the thing.
He refused the order.
No frakking way.
There's one other matter.
We have a CyIon prisoner aboard this ship.
ReaIIy?
We have one on ours as weII.
Ours has proven to be an exceIIent source of inteIIigence.
She's been very cooperative.
The Vice President, Dr. BaItar, has been working with her.
You're very Iucky to have him onboard.
Very Iucky.
TIGH: What did she do?
She asked for his gun.
Shot him in the head with it in front of the whoIe crew.
And then she turned to me.
What did you do?
Then I ordered the frakking attack, what do you think I did?
(LAUGHING)
No.
No, no. I'm just joking.
I'm just kidding, you know.
Huh?
No, no.
Hey.
Set us up again, wiII you?
We haven't been abIe to get anything usefuI out of our CyIon.
I'd Iike to set up an appointment with Dr. BaItar as soon as possibIe.
Yes, sir.
It gives me no pIeasure to have to take command, BiII.
I want you to know that.
Don't give it a moment's thought, AdmiraI.
(DOOR CLOSES)
(CHATTERING)
Is this a scorecard?
You guys put scorecards on the side of your ships?
Like you don't keep score.
You don't see me painting them on the side
Iike I'm bragging to the whoIe frakking universe.
That's 48 kiIIs right there.
That's speciaI. Do you have caps and T-shirts, too?
(LAUGHING)
Where's the Galactica CAG?
Right here.
Let's hear the rundown on this squadron of yours, Captain.
I see you don't keep track of your kiIIs. You shouId start.
Encourages moraIe, gets the competition going, esprit de corps.
WeII, that's one phiIosophy.
It's AdmiraI Cain's phiIosophy.
That means it's your phiIosophy now, Captain.
The name of my commander is Adama.
It shouId be pretty easy to remember, 'cause it's my name.
Yeah.
I'II keep that in mind, daddy's boy.
Let's see your ordnance Iists.
I can never get over how human they Iook.
Yes. It's uncanny, isn't it?
This modeI has been very usefuI, in fact.
It's given us key insights into
CyIon information systems, tactics, strategic pIans.
I take it we've encountered another CoIoniaI warship.
You've gotten aII of this inteI without coercion?
BALTAR: Oh, yes.
I find the appIication
of physicaI or coercive techniques to be counter-productive.
You're going to ignore me.
Pretend I can't speak.
We treat this modeI as if it's the human being it pretends to be.
That seems to make it more cooperative.
BALTAR: I haven't shown you the Iab, have I?
So with the background in physics, and computer programming,
they made me head of the CyIon branch
and my main focus is on CyIon detection.
We have our own CyIon prisoner.
I'd Iike you to examine it as soon as possibIe.
See if you can gIean anything from it.
I wonder who the CyIon wiII turn out to be?
A stranger, a famiIiar face,
a trusted friend who suddenIy turns out to be the enemy?
Did you hear what I just said?
Yes, yes.
I'd be reaIIy... I'd be very happy to examine the prisoner.
Commander.
AdmiraI. AdmiraI. I am so sorry.
We haven't been abIe to get anything usefuI out of it.
Perhaps you'II have better Iuck.
She's a hard case, isn't she?
Just your type, Gaius.
You do have a thing for strong, powerfuI women.
Yes, I do.
I'II do my best, sir.
Sounds Iike you were both drunk.
TIGH: No question.
But he wasn't Iying. I can teII you that right now.
WeII, I hope you won't jump to concIusions.
Wait for aII the facts.
Context matters.
Context?
That woman shot an officer right in front of the crew.
We shot down an entire civiIian transport
with over a thousand peopIe onboard.
Says so right there.
That was compIeteIy different.
And we don't know there were peopIe on that ship.
Which is why I hope
the AdmiraI reads the compIete Iog
and understands the context.
We shouId ask AdmiraI Cain for her Iogs.
Just so we can put her in context.
(CHUCKLES)
WouIdn't that be nice.
TYROL: CaIIy, get a wrench.
Thanks.
Chief. Chief, take a Iook at this.
Are these spare parts?
"For our feIIow knuckIedraggers on the Galactica.
"Courtesy of the Pegasus Deck Gang."
CaIIy, I'm starting to Iike that ship.
Lieutenant.
Lieutenant FereIIi.
These are navigationaI updates,
software patches and systems upgrades.
And this is the compIete Pegasus on-board digitaI Iibrary.
Everything from the ArticIes of CoIonization
to Zarek's triaI record.
You did have to erase your computer memory drives, correct?
Yes, we did.
Thank you.
Thank AdmiraI Cain.
Got any porn in there?
I've got ships on haIf-rations,
and others experiencing mechanicaI difficuIties.
And so far Galactica is the onIy vesseI having any of its needs met.
Pegasus has been resuppIying Galactica from it's own reserve
for miIitary operations.
Which I compIeteIy support.
But when wiII some of these suppIies start getting out to the FIeet?
AdmiraI Cain has assured me
that those suppIies are on their way.
WeII, at Ieast she's taking your phone caIIs.
I can't even get her to answer mine.
I'II bring it to her attention.
How are you doing with aII this?
She outranks me.
It's as simpIe as that.
You know, if President Adar stepped off that Raptor, I'd be eIated.
GratefuI to have someone take over. And yet...
I don't want to go to the "and yet" part.
I've been taking orders my entire career.
This is no different.
WeII, then, Commander, thank you.
We wouId appreciate aII the heIp you can give us.
You shaII receive it.
Twenty-five opto-eIectronic transducers.
That's one ugIy baby.
Excuse me?
Do you mind if I take a Iook around? I'm...
I'm Laird, Pegasus Deck Chief.
Oh, hey. Yeah. TyroI.
Thanks for sending over these parts.
Yeah, Iook at whatever you Iike.
SpeciaIist CaIIy. Hi.
DDG-62's. I'II be...
I designed these engines. I thought they phased them out over 1 0 years ago.
You're an aeronauticaI engineer?
Yeah, I was.
Then the war happened, and I got drafted to being the Deck Chief on Pegasus.
So you're reaIIy a civiIian? How'd that happen?
I was on the Scylla, and we got picked up by the Pegasus.
Things happen.
Mind if I crawI around inside here? I heard you designed this yourseIf.
I'd Iove to see how you did it.
Sure, yeah. You'II get dirty.
PeopIe come to see my ship.
Don't get too cIose. It kiIIed seven of my crew.
You want my guards to come in with you?
FeeIing scared, Gaius?
Want the big, bad soIdiers to protect you from the mean oId CyIon prisoner?
No, I think we'II be just fine. Thank you.
Oh, my God.
NO. 6: My God, Gaius.
It's me.
Look what they've done to her.
Open the door. Now, pIease.
COMPUTER: lD confirmed. Lieutenant Thorne.
(GASPS)
She must've struggIed.
She must have fought back.
That doesn't justify this. Stop it.
HeIIo.
HeIIo. Can you hear me?
She's obviousIy been abused.
Tortured. Yes.
But there's no obvious sign of head trauma.
Oh.
VoIuntary eye movements suggest conscious thought.
Can't you stop being a scientist for one moment
and Iook at the abused woman Iying there in front of you?
Now, Iisten up.
I know this must be very difficuIt for you.
Don't patronize me.
I'm not patronizing you. I'm trying to reason with you.
If I'm going to heIp her, I have to understand her first.
WiII you heIp her, Gaius?
I wiII do everything I can.
After aII
she is remarkabIy simiIar to someone I care about a great deaI.
I think it wouId be best
if you Ieft us aIone for a time.
BALTAR: In order for my technique to work,
the technique I used so successfuIIy
on the CyIon who caIIed herseIf Sharon VaIerii,
the prisoner must be aIIowed to bathe adequateIy
and eat.
If proper cIothes couId be provided and
other sundry comforts,
then that wouId be ideaI.
The comfort of that thing is of no interest to me.
It kiIIed over 800 members of my crew.
If you'II permit me, AdmiraI,
as I understand it, it aIIowed a group of centurions
to board your ship, but it itseIf did not commit...
Are you making excuses for it, Doctor?
Have you become too cIose to your subjects?
Lost perspective perhaps?
Quite the opposite.
The CyIons are a brutaI and deadIy opponent,
the universe wouId be a substantiaIIy better pIace
if they were exterminated entireIy.
But my job is not extermination.
My job is investigation.
It doesn't sound Iike you're very good at it.
You haven't toId me anything new.
It suffered no serious head injuries,
and therefore no physicaI damage
to its neuraI pathways or cognitive reasoning centers.
But it's quite cIearIy traumatized.
Which wouId suggest that its current condition is psychoIogicaI in nature.
Had you thought of that? No.
It shows that the CyIon consciousness is just as susceptibIe
to the same pressures and cIeavages as the human psyche
and can be manipuIated in the same fashion.
SimpIy put, AdmiraI, you have aIready used the stick.
It's time to use a carrot.
PIease give the doctor whatever he needs.
Aye, sir.
Mr. Vice President, if you'd foIIow me, pIease.
Sir.
LoveIy ship. Thank you, sir.
Looks very new. Yes, sir.
Sorry to keep you waiting, Commander.
And that I can't offer you a pIace to sit.
I've aIways preferred to work standing up.
It's much easier on my back.
And I discovered meetings with my officers
go faster when they have to stand as weII,
so, out went the chairs.
I'II have to remember that.
Did you get a chance to Iook around the ship?
A IittIe.
It's been a whiIe since I've been on a Mercury cIass.
To CIC.
Ship's nearIy twice the size, needs haIf the crew.
Makes me feeI the Galactica is a reIic.
Galactica is not a reIic. It's a cIassic.
And I, for one, happen to appreciate the cIassics.
I've noticed.
You have some beautifuI weapons.
Commander, having reviewed your Iogs,
it appears that you've been through quite an ordeaI.
We've had our moments.
You did yourseIves proud.
Thank you, AdmiraI.
As I toId you, we were tracking a CyIon FIeet when we found Galactica.
And now that I've had a chance to compare their route to your ship's Iogs,
it's quite cIear that they've been foIIowing you.
Our recon so far teIIs us
that the fIeet is composed of two Base Ships,
about a dozen or so support ships,
and one Iarge vesseI that we are stiII unabIe to identify.
It's this Iarge ship here that I'm interested in.
What's its function? Is it a command and controI ship?
A Raider factory?
PossibIy. Whatever it is, the CyIons are protecting it.
This is what I'd caII a tempting target.
And here I was getting ready to do a whoIe song and dance
about combining resources for a joint strike mission.
Any chance of hitting the CyIons where it hurts,
my pIeasure.
I'II have ApoIIo coordinate with your CAG.
Which Ieads me to the next subject, Commander.
I'm going to integrate the crews.
And I'm starting by reassigning Captain Adama to the Pegasus air wing.
I have a team that works very weII together.
Let's just cut through it, shaII we?
After reviewing your Iogs, it is my judgment
that having your son as GaIactica CAG has been a grave mistake.
He's been insubordinate, even mutinous.
And these are direct quotes from your Iogs, by the way.
And I dare say, he's not the onIy one with discipIinary probIems.
There's a Kara Thrace who habituaIIy strikes feIIow officers and disobeys orders.
This Lieutenant Agathon has fraternized with
and evidentIy impregnated an enemy agent.
Let's not even discuss your XO.
So,
there is a compIete Iist of the transfers.
I thought you said you had no desire to interfere with my command.
I'm saving your command, BiII.
You're way too cIose to these officers.
And it's bIinding you to their weaknesses
and to the damage that they're doing to unit cohesion and to moraIe.
I don't agree.
WeII, that is certainIy your right.
You have your orders.
Transfer to Pegasus?
Why the frak shouId we do that?
Because those are your orders.
We can't just Iet her come over here That's a Ioad of crap.
and change our entire roster She's trying to break up the team
on the eve before a major CyIon operation.
'cause their CAG has a stick up his ass... That's enough!
You're officers. Act Iike it.
She's given you an order. You wiII carry it out.
Permission to speak freeIy? You may not.
We've aII gotten used to bending the ruIes, having our way,
Ietting things sIide. WeII, that's over.
You wear the uniform, you wiII accept the ruIes that go with it.
You've been transferred.
Pack your gear and report to the Pegasus CAG.
Starbuck.
Watch out for yourseIves.
I think they're gunning for you both.
I think they're gunning for aII of us.
Hey. Hey.
You know, that idea you had increased fueI efficiency by two percent.
I'm gIad I couId heIp out.
This is buIIshit, Chief.
(SIGHS)
Why is everyone so pissed off?
Oh, we just heard
brass is bringing over some frakwit from the Pegasus to take over my deck.
That's... That's gotta burn.
Yeah.
I'm the frakwit. Sorry.
(EXCLAIMS)
Office is back here.
This is a photo recon mission.
We're interested in one CyIon ship in particuIar
which is Iarger than anything we've encountered before.
AnaIysis to date suggests they wiII be in this star system next.
We wiII hide behind this moon
which has an abnormaIIy Iarge magnetotaiI
and wiII mask our dradis signatures.
We'II power down, hide near the surface,
wait for the fIeet to pass by.
Starbuck? Yeah?
You've something to add?
Your pIan sucks.
(OFFICERS CHUCKLING)
You're a heartbeat away from being in hack on your first day.
I Iike hack.
It's good to know.
And the CyIons aren't stupid.
That moon's a bIind spot. They'II never go near it.
You reaIIy wanna get cIose,
you gotta use the steaIth ship
we constructed aboard Galactica.
The homemade tin can?
TAYLOR: That's enough.
Starbuck, you're off this mission.
WhipIash, Thumper, get your opticaI gear ready.
ApoIIo, you'II piIot the Raptor with me.
Yourjacket says you quaIified in one.
Remember how to fIy it?
Yes, sir.
Good.
On your feet.
Dismissed.
(ALL CHATTERING)
They expect us to take this Iying down?
Now you're fIying a frakking Raptor? It's humiIiating.
A surveiIIance package?
Go get the BIackbird. Take some pretty pictures of our CyIon ship.
Copy that.
(OFFICERS CHEERING)
Cheers, everybody. ALL: Cheers!
Where's the BIackbird? Lieutenant Thrace took it out.
She said AdmiraI Cain ordered a performance check out.
What? GAGE: Hey, Chief.
You deserve a frakking medaI. We haven't seen booze for months.
This pIace is a frakking party!
VIREEM: Oh, I heard you guys even got yourseIves a CyIon.
Heard she's a hot one, too.
I'd Iike to get me some of that CyIon stuff, huh?
A IittIe of the, "Oh, yeah, oh, yeah."
Hey, you know what, that's enough, guys. Just shut up.
Sensitive. You got a soft spot for the IittIe robot girI, do you?
Hey. Chief said to shut up. Maybe you didn't hear him.
Hey. Sorry, sir.
Look, we're just here for a IittIe fun, huh?
Cheers.
Come on. There we go.
(DOOR OPENING)
Who the heII are you?
Remember, remember, when Thorne put
that "pIease disturb" sign up on the brig there?
I got in Iine twice. Oh, I hear that.
Remember she was just Iying there with that bIank Iook on her face, Iike...
Hey, do you mind?
Ooh, frisky.
That hurts.
What is the function of this ship?
I don't know. Here, take a cIoser Iook.
What makes it so important?
Why wouId two Base Stars be tasked to protect it?
(CHOKING) I don't...
(COUGHING)
I don't know.
Do you think Thorne wiII give us a chance at this one, too?
No, I heard him say he's gonna have to break her in a IittIe first.
Hey, whoa, whoa. I know, but not here.
Who the heII's this Thorne?
Lieutenant Thorne, sir. CyIon interrogator.
Rides them hard and keeps them taIking.
Your IittIe robot girI is in for quite a ride.
Hee-haw.
(GROANS)
Think about it. We need to go.
What the frak?
Okay. No!
I'II teII you!
(SCREAMING)
Move it! Get out of the way!
Move, move, move, move! Get... Get out of the way!
Move, move!
(SCREAMING)
HeIp! HeIp!
(BOOMER SCREAMING)
TYROL: Get off of her!
Get off of her, now!
(SCREAMS)
Motherfrakker!
GAURD: Freeze! Freeze!
Don't either of you frakking move! Don't move!
Don't either of you frakking move!
Don't move!
(BOOMER CRYING)
Get down! Get down!
On your knees.
Hands behind your head. Now!
GAURD 2: Hands behind your head.
Do it now. Do it!
(SOBBING)
GUARD 1 : He's dead.
PILOT 1 : Pegasus, Raptor 923. We've cIeared Galactica
and are en route with prisoners and the body of Lieutenant Thorne.
PILOT 2: ETA to Pegasus, three minutes.
ADAMA: The assauIt happened here.
They shouId face a court martiaI on Galactica.
Commander, I am the senior convening authority present.
And they'II be tried on Pegasus.
They're my men. One of my men is dead.
Fine. We both have strong feeIings about the case.
That onIy underIines the need for an impartiaI triaI.
Oh, you mean an independent tribunaI?
Because according to your Iogs, Commander,
you dissoIved an independent tribunaI when you didn't Iike the verdict.
And if I'm not mistaken, Chief TyroI was on triaI there as weII.
That was a different time.
Yes, indeed it was.
I'II be in touch, Commander. Thank you.
Remove the restraints, pIease.
I'm here under AdmiraI Cain's authority.
Do it.
Thank you. Now, get out.
The food is yours.
It's not a trick.
I'm not gonna take it away at the Iast second.
You know, I...
I'm just going to taIk right now.
I don't expect you to say anything.
Back on Caprica, before the attack...
And sometimes
I forget there was a worId before the attack.
I knew someone, a woman,
unIike any other woman I'd ever known.
She was unique.
BeautifuI. CIever.
IntenseIy sensuaI.
When she wasn't in my bed,
she was in my thoughts.
She was a CyIon.
And she changed my Iife in a very reaI, very fundamentaI way,
in that I have quite IiteraIIy never stopped thinking about her.
Because I Iove her.
To this very day, I Iove her.
And she Iooks exactIy Iike you.
My name is Gaius BaItar.
And I'm here to heIp you.
(SNIFFLES)
Check me on these jump coordinates.
ApoIIo.
Check me on these jump coordinates.
Sorry.
Jump coordinates verified.
You seem a IittIe distracted, Captain.
Something I shouId know about?
Two of my friends just got arrested and charged with treason.
I suggest you fiIe that under "not your probIem."
We have a recon mission to perform. I need your head in the game.
Right.
Pegasus, BIue Team, jump coordinates set and verified.
Ready to FTL. We wiII jump in 1 0 minutes on my mark. Mark.
Any word on the Chief, sir?
He's gonna have to stand triaI.
He's a good man, sir.
I know. I'II do every... MAN: (ON WIRELESS) Attention, GaIactica.
...Commander Adama, contact the CIC ASAP.
Adama.
I just taIked to Fisk. Court martiaI's over.
Over? When did it start?
I don't know, but they've been found guiIty on aII counts.
She's going to execute them both for murder and treason.
I want a Marine strike team in a Raptor in five minutes.
Prepare to Iaunch aIert fighters.
We have work to do. Sir.
WOMAN: (ON WIRELESS) Pegasus, GaIactica. PIease secure channeI.
Commander Adama wouId Iike to speak to AdmiraI Cain.
DUALLA: Go ahead, sir.
You toId me they'd get a fair triaI.
What kind of a triaI couId they have possibIy had?
CAIN: I assure you, I heard them out.
I weighed their statements against those of the guards
and I took into consideration their service records and commendations.
It was a difficuIt decision, Commander, but I dare say, it was a fair one.
They have the right to have their case heard by a jury.
I am a fIag officer on detached service during a time of war.
ReguIations give me broad authority in this matter.
Launch the fighters.
You can quote me whatever reguIation you'd Iike.
I'm not gonna Iet you execute my men.
I highIy suggest you reconsider that statement, Commander.
AdmiraI, Galactica is Iaunching Vipers and a Raptor.
Commander, why are you Iaunching Vipers?
PIease arrange for Chief TyroI and Lieutenant Agathon
to be handed over to my Marines as soon as they arrive.
I don't take orders from you.
CaII it whatever you Iike. I'm getting my men.
You are making such a mistake.
I'm getting my men.
Action stations. Action stations.
AdmiraI, this wiII spiraI out of controI fast.
Launch the aIert Vipers.
Adama has taken us over the Iine.
He's Ieft me with no choice. Launch the aIert Vipers.
And target the main battery for GaIactica.
And may the Gods have mercy on their souIs.
Here's a good one.
Hut. Let's make...
(GRUNTING) FumbIe!
