(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHlNG)

Are you alive?

Yes.

Prove it.

(GASPS)

(EXPLOSlONS)

lt has begun.

(PEOPLE CHATTERlNG)

Make a hole!

As l was saying,
form follows function.

Nowhere is this axiom of
design more readily apparent

than on board the world-famous
Battlestar Galactica.

This ship, the last
of her kind still in service,

was constructed over 50 years
ago during the early days
of the Cylon War.

Originally there were 1 2
Battlestars, each representing
one of Kobol's 1 2 colonies.

Galactica represented Caprica
and was first commanded
by Commander Nash. . .

"The Cylon War is long over,
yet we must not forget
the reasons why. . ."

Commander Adama, if l may?

Captain.

l just wanted to say what
a pleasure it's been serving
with you in your command.

Captain Kelly, it's been
my honor. Good luck
in your next assignment.

Thank you, sir.

"The Cylon War
is long over, yet. . ."

Good morning, sir.

Good morning, Starbuck.
What do you hear?

Nothing but the rain.

Grab your gun
and bring in the cat.

Boom, boom, boom.

WOMAN ON PA:
Attention. Honor guard detail

report to starboard hangar bay
for ceremonial briefing
and rehearsal.

Let's go, guys.
Chief's gonna have our ass.

Yeah, well, you're the one
that was supposed to
wrap that yesterday.

(SHUSHlNG) lt's the old man.

Too late. What's up?

Nothing, sir. Just another
leak in that frakking window.

Pardon me, sir.

lt's supposed to be
a Battlestar, not a museum.

Sorry for saying so, sir.

Couldn't agree with you more.
Be careful out there,
all right?

"The Cylon War is long over,
yet we cannot forget
the reasons why. . ."

Morning, sir.
Good morning.

Com traffic
from the midwatch.

Anything interesting?

Mostly housekeeping.

There was one odd message
we were copied on.

The one from
Fleet Headquarters there, sir.

Courier officer's overdue
coming back from
Armistice Station.

They've asked for
a full status report
on all FTL-capable ships,

just in case
they need somebody
to jump out there today,

see if his ship has
any mechanical problems.

l think we're a little bit
busy today. Wouldn't
you say so, Lieutenant?

Yes, sir.

l'm glad we agree.

And may l take
this opportunity to say that
it's been both a pleasure

and an honor
to serve under you
these past three years.

lt's my honor,
Lieutenant Gaeta.

ADAMA: "The Cylon War
is long over. . ."

Colonel?

You'll see things here
that look odd
or even antiquated. . .

Hello.
Antiquated to modern eyes.

Phones with cords,
awkward manual valves,

computers that barely
deserve the name.

lt was all designed
to operate against an enemy

who could infiltrate
and disrupt even the most
basic computer systems.

Galactica is a reminder
of a time when we were
so frightened by our enemies

that we literally looked
backward for protection.

(ELECTRlC CRACKLlNG)

WOMAN ON PA:
Attention all hands...

Morning.

Attention on deck!

Chief, Sir.
At ease.

This way.

A Mark ll.

Haven't seen one of these
in about 20 years.

TYROL: lf the Commander
will take a closer look

(LAUGHlNG)
at the tail numbering.

Nebula 7242 Constellation.

Oh, my God.
Where did you find her?

Rusting out
in a salvage yard
on Sagittarian.

We had hoped the Commander
would allow her to participate

in the decommissioning
ceremony.

She'll fly?
Yes, sir.

We've restored the engines,

patched the guidance system,
replaced much of
the flight control. . .

You guys are amazing.
. . .she's fueled, armed,

ready for launch, sir.
Commander.

What? More?
Mmm-hmm.

Somebody's bucking
for a promotion around here.

l believe that would be
Prosna, sir.

He found this
in the Fleet archives.

He was doing some research
for the museum.

Thank you. Thank you all.
lt's an honor.

You're welcome, sir.
Fall out.

MAN: All right.
You heard the man.
Let's get number three up.

(CHATTERlNG)

WOMAN ON PA: Attention...

(ANNOUNCEMENT CONTINUES
INDISTINCTLY)

(MEN SHOUTlNG)

(REPEATING ANNOUNCEMENT)

WOMAN ON PA:
...prior to 2300 hours.

Uh-oh.

HELO: Here we go.

lf you're gonna play
with the big dogs. . .

BOOMER: No fear.

HELO: l'm in.
Bet's to you, XO.

l'm not scared of you.
TlGH: l'm in.

(LAUGHlNG) Helo,
when are you gonna learn?

First you're flying
with rooks, and then. . .

Hey!
Ow!

And then you're betting
against Starbuck.

"Starbuck."
Now there's a call sign.

Starbuck. Starbuck,
buck, buck, buck,
buck, buck, buck, buck.

Where'd you get
that nickname, anyway?

Was that before
you were thrown in
the brink as a cadet

for drunk and disorderly
or after?

After.

TlGH: After. That's right.
lt was after.

l'm in. Bet's to you, XO.

l'm in.
Stay.

How's the wife?

BOOMER: Too early
for that kind of money.

(CARDS SLAPPlNG DOWN)

Hey, did you hear about
that Pyramid game on Geminon?

BOOMER: What were you
doing on Geminon?

HELO: This girl there l know.

BOOMER:
What girl don't you know?

The wife is just fine.

Talk to her lately?

BOOMER:
Bet's to you, Lieutenant.

(CLEARS THROAT)

All right.

Thirty to me.

And it looks like
l'm gonna bring this
lovely little game to a close

because full colors!

(LAUGHlNG TRlUMPHANTLY)

(WHOOPS)

(HUMMlNG HAPPlLY)

(LAUGHlNG)

(TlGH GROANlNG)

Stop!

Okay, l'm fine. l'm fine.
Hey, hey, hey.

Okay.
Hey.

You have finally gone too far
and now you're done.

Lieutenant, consider yourself
under arrest, pending charges.

Report to the brig.

Gentlemen.

Are you really gonna
press charges against Kara?

For striking
a superior officer?
You're damned right l am.

ADAMA: Heard you started
the day off pretty early.

l wasn't on duty.

Now, where did you get this?

Tyrol's deck gang
scrounged it up.

l couldn't talk you
out of it, could l?
Not a chance.

She is insubordinate,
undisciplined.

Probably one of
the finest fighter pilots
l've ever seen in my life.

Yeah.
She's better than l am.

Twice as good as you.

Like hell.

(CHUCKLES)

Jesus.

Listen, l'm not gonna defend
what she did.

Especially the cracks
about your marital problems.

But you did kick over
the table first.
l did not.

Unless l did.

You did.

So what do you say we just
drop the formal charges,

throw her in the brig,
cool her heels off
until we get home?

You always did have
a soft spot for her.

Yeah, l guess l'm just
a crazy old man.

(SEAGULLS CAWlNG)

(DOOR SLAMS)

l'm afraid the tests
are positive.
The mass is malignant.

lt's advanced
well beyond the. . .

(LOUD RUMBLlNG)

BlLLY: So l also sent
the President a copy

of your speech
for Galactica's retirement.

Hopefully, he'll have
a chance to review it,

but there is a 30-minute
time delay between
the Galactica and. . .

Excuse me.

PILOT ON INTERCOM:
Ladies and gentlemen, this is
your Captain. WeIcome aboard.

We are en route to Galactica,

and our estimated flight time
is approximately
five and a haIf hours.

PIease sit back and reIax
and enjoy your flight.

(LOUD SOB)

(BELL TOLLlNG)

(PEOPLE CHATTERlNG)

WOMAN 1 : l'll take two!

WOMAN 2: All right.

How small they are.

l know.
But they grow up so fast.

May l?

Sure.

There.

(BABY CRYlNG)

So light.

So fragile.

(SHUSHlNG)

There, there. lt's okay.

You're not gonna
have to cry much longer.

We really should be going.

Of course.

lt's amazing how the neck
can support that much weight.

MAN: Chantara.

Honey, let's go.

MAN: l gotta
show you something.

Okay.
Yeah. Come on.

CHANTARA: Give me a moment.

(BONE CRACKlNG)

CHANTARA: Just a second.

l'll go with you.

(CHANTARA SCREAMlNG)

CHANTARA:
My God ! He's not breathing !

(SOBBlNG) Oh, my God !
Oh, my God !
He's not breathing !

My baby!

For those of you
just joining us from
the Pyramid game on Geminon,

welcome to The Spotlight,

our weekly interview program
devoted to people
making news on Caprica.

Today we're talking
with Dr. Gaius Baltar,

winner of three Magnate Awards
over the course of his career.

A media cult figure,
and a personal friend
of President Adar's.

He is currently working
as a top consultant
for the Ministry of Defense

on computer issues.

But he's perhaps best known
for his controversiaI views

on advancing
computer technology.

Dr. Baltar, again, welcome.

Thank you, Kellan.
Firstly, may l say
how lovely you're looking,

and secondly,
what an absolute pleasure
it is to be on the show.

Well, we're delighted
to have you with us.

CouId you summarize your views
for our audience?

BALTAR: Yes, l'd be happy to.
My position is very simple.

The ban on
research and development
into artificial intelligence

is, as we all know, a holdover
from the Cylon Wars.

Quite frankly, l find this
to be an outmoded concept.

lt serves no useful purpose
except to impede
our efforts. . .

(BOTH MOANlNG)

Miss me?

Can't you tell?

Your body misses me,
but what about your heart,
your soul?

Yeah, those, too.

Do you love me, Gaius?
What?

Do you love me?
Are you serious?

You had me worried there
for a minute.

l'm hot, Gaius.

l'm so hot!

MAN ON RADIO:
Viper 450, this is Galactica.
Approach port landing bay.

Hands-on speed 1 05.
Checkers red. CaII the baII.

APOLLO: Galactica,
this is Viper 450.
Check that.

Did you say
hands-on approach?

Viper 450,
that's affirmative.
Hands-on approach.

Copy that, Galactica.
Port landing bay,
hands-on approach.

Speed 1 05.
I have the baII.

TYROL ON RADIO:
Skids down. Mag Iock secure.

On behalf of Galactica,
l'd like to welcome
you aboard, Apollo.

lt's an honor
to have you with us.

(MAN SHOUTlNG)

(WOMAN TALKING
INDISTINCTLY ON PA)

Morning, sir. Chief Tyrol.

l'll be your crew chief
while you're aboard.

Morning, Chief.
Captain Lee Adama.

lt's a real pleasure
to have. . . Meet you, sir.

l'm sure you've heard
this before. l'm a great
admirer of your father's.

The service is gonna miss him
when he retires.

Well, l'm sure someone will.
ls your auto-landing system
down?

l was hands-on
for the whole approach.

lt's all hands-on here,
Captain.

There are no auto-landings
on the Galactica.

Commander Adama's orders.

ls that right?

MAN ON PA: Attention
in the port hangar bay.

Raptor touching down.
CIear. The checker is red.

(BEEPlNG)

Nice flying, Lieutenant.
l think they heard that
clear up to the bridge.

Yeah. l'm gonna catch hell
from the LSO, but it wasn't
entirely my fault.

Primary gimbal's
acting up again.

Oh, it's the gimbal's
fault again?

Helo, am l lying?
Gimbal looked bad to me.

l've pulled that gimbal
three times
and stripped it twice.

The gimbal's
not the problem, sir.

You're not listening
to me, Chief.

l listen very closely
to what each and every one
of my pilots has to say.

You're not the one out there
trying to bring in 50 tons
of Raptor

onto a moving hangar deck
with a bad gimbal.

l've got 1 0 years'
experience. . .
Here we go.

. . .breaking down and stripping
every component
and every system

(BOTH) that's ever been
installed in every spacecraft
on my hangar deck.

(GRUNTlNG)

The gimbal is broken.

Shut up, sir.

Morning.
ALL: Morning, sir!

All right.
Today is the main event.

We have
a formation demonstration,
flyby maneuvers

in conjunction with
the decommissioning ceremony.

l've got a few changes
to the flight plan.

Lieutenant Thrace is being
replaced in the slot
by Lieutenant Anders.

Also, we have
Captain Lee Adama
joining us,

and he's gonna be
flying lead during the flyby,
so pIease weIcome Captain.

WOMAN: Good to have you.
Welcome, Apollo.

MAN 1 :
Welcome aboard, Captain.

MAN 2: Great. Welcome.

Thanks to Chief TyroI
and his deck gang, Captain,

you're gonna have the honor
of flying the actual Viper

that your father flew
almost 40 years ago.

Great. That's quite an honor.

Yes, it is, Captain.

And personally l can't think
of a better way to send
this ship into retirement.

lt may interest you to know
that the final results
for the CNP project

are working
close to 95% efficiency
throughout the fleet.

Hold your applause, please.
No applause for me?

l doubt you would've
ever completed
the project without me.

Yes, well,
you helped a bit.

l rewrote
half your algorithms.

All right,
you were extremely helpful.

But let's not forget
you got something out of it.

All that poking around
inside the Defense mainframe.

Should give you
a huge advantage bidding
for the contract next year.

You know that's not
really why l did it.

No, you did it
'cause you love me.

That, and God
wanted me to help you.

Right. He spoke to you,
did he? You had a chat?

He didn't speak to me
in a literal voice.

And you don't have to
mock my faith.

Sorry. l'm just
not very religious.

Does it bother you
that l am?

lt puzzles me that
an intelligent, attractive
woman such as yourself

should be taken in
by all that mysticism
and superstition.

But l'm willing to
overlook it on account
of your other attributes.

l have to go.
l'm meeting someone.

Really? Who is he?
l'm insanely jealous.

l doubt that.

So touchy today.

Well, as a matter of fact,
l'm meeting someone, too.
Business.

A new project
at Defense l might do.

So,

you'll call me later, right?

lt's about time. l wondered
when you'd get here.

DORAL: Secretary Roslin.
ROSLlN: Yes.

Mr. Kickay.
Keikeya.

Oh, sorry. Hi.
Hi.

My name's Aaron Doral.
l'm from Public Relations.

l'd like to welcome you
aboard Galactica.
Thank you.

lf you'll follow me,
l'll show you
to your quarters.

MAN ON PA:
Attention aII hands.

At this time, Galactica
wouId Iike to weIcome aboard

the Secretary of Education,
Laura RosIin.

The Secretary is a member
of the President's cabinet.

We're honored by her presence
aboard our ship

and her participation
this afternoon in Galactica's
decommissioning ceremony.

Madam Secretary?

MAN: Yes, that's exactly
what l would think.

MAN ON PA:
Attention aII hands.
EVA activity on hull.

Do not radiate
any electrical equipment
while EVA is in progress.

Thank you.

(TOlLET FLUSHlNG)

ln or out.

Excuse me?
Get in or get out.

Shut the hatch.
Sorry.

Where are you trying to be?

Visitor's quarters.
l'm a visitor.

Yeah.
Never would've guessed.

lt tells people things
like where the restroom is.

lt's an integrated
computer network, and l will
not have it aboard this ship.

l heard you're one of those
people. You're actually
afraid of computers.

No. There are many computers
on this ship,
but they're not networked.

A computerized network
would simply make it faster
and easier for the teachers

to be able to teach. . .
Let me explain
something to you.

(SlGHlNG)
Many good men and women lost
their lives aboard this ship

because someone wanted
a faster computer
to make life easier.

l'm sorry that
l'm inconveniencing
you or the teachers,

but l will not allow
a network computerized system

to be placed on this ship
while l'm in command.

ls that clear?
Yes, sir.

Thank you. Excuse me.

(STARBUCK BREATHlNG HEAVlLY)

This seems familiar.

Captain Adama, sir.

Sorry l wasn't there
to greet you with
the rest of the squadron.

Did they kiss your ass
to your satisfaction?

So, what's the charge
this time?

Striking a superior asshole.

Ah.

l bet you've been waiting
all day to say that one.

Most of the afternoon, yeah.
Right.

So, how long's it been?

Two years.

Two years.
We must be getting old.

Seems like
the funeral was just
a couple months ago.

Yeah.

Your old man's doing fine.
We don't talk about it much.

Maybe two or three times
a year. He still struggles
with it, though.

l haven't seen him.
Why not?

Kara, don't even start.
How long are you gonna
do this?

l'm not doing anything.

He lost his son, Lee.

And who's responsible
for that?

Same old Lee.
You haven't changed, either.

Zak was my brother.

What was he to me? Nothing?

That's not what l meant.
And you know what. . .

You know what? You should go.

l'm getting the urge to hit
another superior asshole.

Gaius.

Gaius!

What are you doing here?
Who the hell are you?

Get out.

Gaius, who is this woman?

She's a friend.
Well, more than a friend.
When l say friend. . .

Get out.

This is just great.

Bye.

(DOOR CLOSlNG)

Look, it's me, all right?

(STUTTERlNG)
lt's totally me. l screwed up.

l am screwed up.
l always have been.

lt's a. . . lt's a flaw
in my character that l have. . .

l've always hated
and l've tried. . .

Spare me your feigned
self-awareness and remorse.

l came here because
l have something to tell you.

Oh. Okay.

Here he is.
lf you'd just like to. . .

A little space. Captain,
thank you for joining us.

Hi. Aaron Doral. lf you'd just
like to stand up there,

we'll get a few shots of you
and the Commander.

Thanks.

Hello, Captain.

Great. Okay, gentlemen,
could you maybe stand
a bit closer?

Fantastic.

Commander, could you put
your arm around your son?

DORAL: Great. Perfect.

Okay. Thank you very much.
See you at the ceremony.

We'll just be leaving this. . .
Through this doorway
and to our right.

WOMAN ON PA: Attention,
honor guard detail, report to
starboard hangar bay.

You want some coffee?

No, sir. Thank you, sir.

Why don't you sit down?

Congratulations
on making Captain.
Sorry l wasn't there.

Thank you, sir.

How's your mother?
Getting married.

Good for her.

We spoke about a year ago.
Had a real heart-to-heart.
lt was good.

l'm glad to hear that, sir.
Will that be all?

Why don't you
talk to me, Lee?

What do you want to
talk about?

Anything. You've been
here for an hour.

Well, l don't have
anything to say.

My orders said report here
and participate
in the ceremony.

So l'm here, and l'm gonna
participate in the ceremony.

There wasn't anything
in my orders

about having
any heart-to-heart chats
with the old man.

Accidents happen
in the service.

Dad, listen, l. . .

You know, all the things
that you talked to me about
at the funeral. . .

l really don't want to
do this!

They still ring in my ears
after two years.
Good !

Good. 'Cause you know what?
They were meant to.

Zak had a choice.
You both did.

"A man isn't a man
until he wears the wings
of a Viper pilot."

Doesn't that sound
at all familiar to you?

That's not fair, son.

No, it's not fair.

Because one of us wasn't
cut out to wear the uniform.

He earned his wings,
just like we all did.

One of us wasn't
cut out to be a pilot.

One of us wouldn't have even
made it into flight school

if his old man, his daddy,
hadn't pulled the strings!

That's an exaggeration.

l did nothing for him
that l wouldn't have
done for anyone else.

You're not even
listening to me.

Why can't you get this
through your head?

Zak did not belong
in that plane!

He shouldn't have been there.

He was only doing it for you.

Face it. You killed him.

That'll be all, Captain.

So now you're telling me. . .

Now you're telling me
you're a machine.

l'm a woman.
You're a machine.

You're a synthetic woman.

A robot.

l've said it three times now.
Well, forgive me.

l'm having the tiniest
little bit of trouble
believing that.

The last time anybody
saw the Cylons, they looked
like walking chrome toasters.

Those models
are still around.
They have their uses.

Prove it.

lf you're a Cylon,
prove it to me right now.

l don't have to. You know
l'm telling the truth.

See, stating
something as the truth
doesn't necessarily make it so

'cause the truth of the matter
is l don't believe
a word of it.

You believe me because
deep down you've always known

there was something
different about me.

Something that didn't quite
add up in the usual way.

And you believe me
because it flatters your ego

to believe that alone, among
all the billions of people
of the Twelve Colonies,

you were chosen
for my mission.

Your mission? What mission?

You knew l wanted access
to the Defense mainframe.

The. . . Wait a minute.

The Defense mainframe?
What exactly are you saying?

Come on, Gaius.
The communications
frequencies?

Deployment schedules?
Unlimited access
to every database?

Oh, my God.

l had nothing
to do with this.

You know l had nothing
to do with this.

You have an amazing capacity
for self-deception.

How do you do that?

How many people know
about me, specifically?
That l'm involved?

And even now, as the fate
of your entire world
hangs in the balance,

all you can think about
is how this affects you.

Do you have any idea
what they will do to me
if they find out?

They'd probably
charge you with treason.

Treason is punishable
by the death penalty.

This is unbelievable.
What are you doing?

Phoning my attorney.

That won't be necessary.

He'll know what to do.
He'll sort this out.
He's the best in the business.

lt won't be necessary,
because in a few hours

no one will be left
to charge you with anything.

What exactly are you saying?

Humanity's children
are returning home. . .today.

DORAL ON MIKE:
l'd like to thank you
all again for being here.

And, Elosha,
thank you very much
for those wonderfuI words.

Next is a ceremonial flyby
by the last Galactica squadron

Ied by Captain Lee Adama.

(FANFARE PLAYlNG)

ALL APPLAUDlNG)

And now it is my great
pleasure to introduce
the Iast Commander

of the Battlestar Galactica,
Commander Adama.

Thank you very much.

The CyIon War is Iong over,

yet we must not forget
the reasons why so many
sacrificed so much

in the cause of freedom.

The cost of wearing
the uniform can be high,

but...

Sometimes it's too high.

You know, when we fought
the CyIons,

we did it to save ourseIves
from extinction.

But we never answered
the question why.

Why are we as a people
worth saving?

We stiII commit murder
because of greed,
spite, jealousy.

And we stiII visit
aII of our sins
upon our children.

ADAMA ON RADIO: We refuse
to accept the responsibility
for anything that we've done.

Like we did with the CyIons.

We decided to pIay God,

create Iife.

When that Iife
turned against us,

we comforted ourseIves in
the knowledge that it really
wasn't our fault, not really.

You cannot pIay God, then
wash your hands of the things
that you've created.

Sooner or later,
the day comes

when you can't hide
from the things
that you've done anymore.

ALL APPLAUDlNG)

You are one surprising
son of a bitch.

APOLLO ON RADIO:
Colonial Heavy 798,
this is Viper 7242.

My call sign is Apollo,
and l'll be your escort
back to Caprica.

MAN ON RADIO:
Copy that, Viper 7242. Glad
to have you with us, Apollo.

BOOMER ON RADlO: Vioer 7242,
Raptor 31 2, this is Boomer.

Just wanted to say
it was an honor
to fly with you, Apollo.

MAN ON PA:
Ladies and gentlemen, we are
now en route back to Caprica.

lf you look out
the starboard window,

you might be able to see
one of Galactica's
old Mark ll Vipers,

which will be escorting
us back home.

WOMAN ON TV: We don't have
any further information, yet.

MAN ON TV: There are
no remaining ships
abIe to Ieave Caprica.

But no actual enemy
has been sighted yet.

OfficiaIs are saying there
doesn't seem any doubt...

(CRASHING)

What have l done?

What am l gonna do?

There's no way out.

l know.
l'm sure you know.

(VOlCE BREAKlNG)
That's your doing, isn't it?

Wait. Wait. There has to be
another way out of here.

l mean, you must have
an escape plan.

You're not about to be
destroyed by your own bombs,
are you?

How are you leaving?

(SCREAMS)

Gaius, l can't die.

When this body is destroyed,
my memory, my consciousness

There are 1 2 models.

l'm sorry to disturb you, sir,

but we have a Priority One

from Fleet Headquarters.

lt was transmitted
in the clear.

ln the clear?
What does it say?

"Attention all Colonial units.

"Cylon attack underway.

"This is no driII."

l'll be right there.

They can't be serious.
Sounds like it to me.

What are we gonna shoot with?
The ship's got no ammunition.

All right, people, let's go.

Let's get this hangar bay
ready for possible incoming.

What have we got?
Shipping accident?

(MEN SHOUTlNG lNDlSTlNCTLY)

Combat? Understood.

Condition one is set.
All decks report
ready for action, sir.

Very well.

This is a joke.
The Fleet's playing
a joke on you.

lt's a retirement prank.
Come on.
l don't think so.

This is the Commander.

Moments ago this ship
received word

of a Cylon attack against
our homeworlds is underway.

We do not know the size or the
disposition or the strength
of the enemy forces.

But all indications point

(ON SPEAKER)
to a massive assauIt
against CoIoniaI defenses.

Admiral Nagala has taken
personal command of the fleet

aboard
the BattlestarAtlantia,

following complete destruction
of Picon Fleet Headquarters

in the first wave
of the attacks.

How, why,
doesn't really matter now.

What does matter is that,
as of this moment,
we are at war.

You've trained for this.
You're ready for this.

Stand to your duties,
trust your fellow shipmates

and we'll all
get through this.

Further updates
as we get them. Thank you.

War with the Cylons.

All right, people,
this is what we do.

We're the best, so let's get
the old girl ready to roll,
and kick some Cylon ass!

Come on ! Let's go! Move!

This better be for real.

Tactical.
Sir?

Begin a plot of all military
units in the solar system,
friendly or otherwise.

XO.
Sir?

We're in a shooting war.
We need something to shoot.

l'll start checking
munitions depots.

Dee, send a signal
to our fighter squadron.

l want positions and tactical
status immediately.

Yes, sir.
And get Kara Thrace
out of the brig.

Boomer, acknowledge
Galactica's signals,
and send them our position.

TeII them we've detected
a formation of CyIon fighters
directly ahead,

and I intend to attack.

CAG: Boomer, do you copy?

Copy that.

Ease up there, Boomer.
Take a deep breath.

Stand by. Helo?

l show 1 0.

No, no, make that
five Cylon raiders
on course 324-mark-1 1 0.

Speed, 7. 1 .

Time to intercept,
seven minutes.

CAG: You don't sound too sure.
A lot of jamming going on.

Cylons are using
a lot of sensor decoys.
Sorting through them, but. . .

Understood.

Just take your time,
guide us in.
We'II do the rest.

BOOMER: Yes, sir.

So that would put
our squadron about here.

Now, looks like
the main fight is shaping up
over here near Virgon's orbit.

But even at top speed,
they're still
over an hour away.

ADAMA: Plot a course
along this axis.

lf we can keep Virgon
between us and the battle,

we might be able to get
pretty close before
the Cylons are even aware.

GAETA: At least, sir.

Commander,
ready for duty, sir.
Good.

Where the hell
did the Cylons come from?

All we know for sure is they
achieved complete surprise

and we're taking heavy losses.
We lost 30 Battlestars
in the opening attack.

That's a quarter
of the fleet.

l need pilots
and l need fighters.

Pilots you got.

There's 20 of us
climbing the walls down
in the ready room.

But fighters. . .

l think l seem to remember
an entire squadron of fighters

down on the starboard
hangar deck yesterday.

Yes, sir.

(BARS THUDDlNG)

You sure they'll fly?

The reactor's still hot, so
all we have to do is pull the
rad buffers from the engine,

refuel it, load the ordnance,
and you're ready to go.

The biggest problem
is getting them over
to the port launch bay.

Why can't we use
the starboard launch?
lt's a gift shop now.

Frak me.
All right, let's go!

Everybody pick a bird !
We're going to
the port launch bay!

What's the latest, Dee?

A lot of confusion.

l keep getting these
weird reports about
equipment malfunctions.

Why is that weird?

lt's the number
of malfunctions.

One report said an entire
Battlestar lost power

just before it came
in contact with the enemy.

They said it was like someone
just turned off a switch.

Cylon formation ahead.

We're down to two confirmed
Cylons now. Approaching
visual range.

Okay, Boomer, we'II take it
from here. You back way off.

Roger that.

All right, boys and girls,
you break into
attack formation.

There might only be two
of them, but l want you
to stick with your wingman

and do not get overconfident.

HELO: Anybody know what
these things look like?

BOOMER: Pictures I've seen
of the oId CyIon fighters

were sort of Iike
a big flying wing.

HELO: Those pictures
are 40 years old.

Okay, keep the chatter down.
BOOMER: CAG, Boomer.

We've got a lot more contacts
showing up. Looks like a
couple of squadrons, at least.

All Vipers, weapons free.

Let's go get 'em.

(HUMMlNG)

(STATlC)

What the. . .

l've lost power.

Jolly. Jolly, take over.

Jolly, can you read me?

What are they doing?

l don't know.
They're going straight in.

Com chatter's gone.
They're not talking anymore.

CAG, Boomer.

CAG, Boomer. Do you read?

Boomer, this is CAG.

lf you can hear me they
must've done something
to our computer system.

Some sort of eIectronic
jamming. l've never seen
anything like this.

There's no cockpits.

Nobody's flying these things.

Oh, my God.

(CAG SCREAMlNG)

No!

ALARM BEEPlNG RAPlDLY)

Boomer, get us out of here!

(BREATHlNG HEAVlLY)

processing the information
that we have been given,

and l urge you all
to try to stay calm.

As we get more information,
l will pass it along to you.

We appreciate your patience.
Thank you.

What's going on?
l'm not sure.

Any luck over there, Captain?

APOLLO: No, just picking up
a lot of confusing chatter.

Well, to be honest with you,
l'm kind of glad
you're sticking around.

Makes us all feel better
just seeing you out there.

Well, don't get
too comfortabIe.

This old junker l'm in was
meant for show, not combat.

lf we run into a problem,
I'II do what I can
to protect you.

But the first sign of trouble,
you pour on the speed
and you run.

Don't you worry about that.
l got my hand on the throttle.

lt hasn't left since l got
that first message.

CoIoniaI Heavy 798 out.

Two missiles now.

Jam the warheads!
l'm trying.

Can't find their frequency.
Drop a swallow.

Got two left.

Damn it. Come on !

Ah, frak!
What?

Check the screen ahead.
Guess we found the main fight.

(HlSSlNG STOPS)

Are you okay?

Stay with me.

Okay, we have a fuel leak.
We have to put down
and repair it.

Nearest world is Caprica.
Lot of company
between us and there.

Yeah.

ALARM BEEPlNG)

(SlLENCE)

So we're cruising?

Best way to avoid attracting
attention. No power signature,
go in a straight line.

Unless somebody actually gets
close enough to see us,

we just look like a chunk
of debris on the sensors.

l think we have
enough inertia to make it
to Caprica's ionosphere.

Then we power up
and find a place to land.

(PANTlNG) Nice.
Nice thinking there.

Preliminary reports indicate

a thermo-nucIear device
in the 50-megaton range

(ON SPEAKER)
was detonated over
Caprica City 30 minutes ago.

NucIear detonations have been
reported on the planets
Arilon, Picon,

Sagittarian and Geminon.

No reports of casualties,
but they will be high.

How many people
in Caprica City alone?

Seven million.
Mourn the dead Iater.

Right now, the best thing
we can do, is get
this ship into the fight.

Yes?
Excuse me.

One of the passengers
has a shortwave wireless.

They've heard a report
that Caprica has been nuked.

lt has, hasn't it?

Caprica and three
other colonies.

l guess l. . .

l should go
make an announcement
or something.

l'll do it. l'm a member
of the political cabinet.

lt's my responsibility.

While l'm doing that,
l would ask that you

contact the Ministry
of Civil Defense, and see
what we can do to help.

lncluding the colonies
of Caprica,

MAN 2: What about Geminon?

Anything on Geminon?
My kids are on Geminon !

Okay, stop, stop!
Please, stop!

Please, l'm trying to reach
the government right now,

to get more information.

ln the meantime,
we should all be prepared

for an extended stay
aboard this ship.

So you, please, and you,

take an inventory
of the emergency supplies
and rations.

Hey, wait a minute.
Who put you in charge?

Well, that's a good question.
The answer is no one.

But this is a government ship,

and l am the senior
government official,
so that puts me in charge.

So why don't you
help me out and go down
into the cargo area

and see about setting it up
as a living space.

Everyone else, please,
please try and stay calm.

Thank you.

(PEOPLE CHATTERlNG)

All right, this is
the passenger manifest.

Are you all right?
Yeah, yeah.

We hear all kinds of things.

Have the Cylons
made any demands?
Do we know what they want?

No. No contact.
l'm pretty sure about that.

Has anyone discussed. . .

Has anyone discussed
the possibility of surrender?

Has it been considered?
After Picon was nuked,

the President
offered a complete
unconditionaI surrender.

The CyIons
didn't even respond.

CoIoniaI Heavy 798.

Where?

(RAPlD BEEPlNG)

What should we do?

The Cylons have found us.
There's an inbound missile.

My name's Aaron Doral.

with you and your father.

What are these things?

Electric pulse generators
from the Galactica.

Really? That's interesting.

Captain, l can't tell you
how glad l am to see you.

Oh? Why is that?

Personally, l'd feel a lot
better if someone qualified
were in charge around here.

ls something wrong
with your pilot?
No.

lt's just that he's not
the one giving orders.

This is. . . lt's a bad
situation, isn't it, sir?

Yes, it is.
Right.

What if we transfer
the "L" containers
from Bay 3 to Bay 4?

Then we would have
1 , 2 and 3 for passengers.

Yeah, that's doable.

That's a lot of heavy lifting
without dock loaders.

ROSLlN: A little hard work
is just what
the people need right now.

Captain,
good to see you again.

Likewise. Thanks for the lift.
You should thank her.

Start the cargo transfer
and prep Bay 3 for survivors.

PlLOT: Yes, ma'am.

l'm sorry. Survivors?

As soon as the attack began,

the government
ordered a full stop
on all civilian vessels,

so now we've got hundreds
of stranded ships
in the solar system.

Some are lost,
some are damaged,
some are losing power.

We have enough space
on this ship to accommodate
up to 500 people,

and we're going to need
every bit of it.

But we don't even know
what the tactical situation
is out there.

The tactical situation is that
we are losing, right, Captain?

Right.
So we pick up
as many people as we can,

we try to find a safe haven
to put down.

Captain, l'd like you to look
over the navigational charts

for a likely place to hide
from the Cylons. That's all.
