[Apollo] PREVIOUSLY ON
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA...

THUS SHALL IT COME TO PASS.

THE DYING LEADER SHALL KNOW
THE TRUTH OF THE OPERA HOUSE.

WHERE DID YOU HEAR THAT?
WHO TOLD YOU THAT?

THE HYBRID ON THE BASESHIP
BEFORE THEY UNPLUGGED IT.

I'VE GOTTA FIND OUT
ABOUT THESE VISIONS.

PLUG IT IN.

IT'S TIME TO GET
SOME ANSWERS.

CAN I SEE
WHAT YOU DREW?

HERA!

GET AWAY FROM MY CHILD!

YOU ARE NEVER GONNA
TAKE HERA.

JUMP!

[Natalie breathing raggedly]
HEAVENLY FATHER...

GIVE ME THE STRENGTH,

THE WISDOM,
AND ABOVE ALL...

QUICKLY.
ALL RIGHT, ON THREE.

THREE, TWO, ONE, MOVE!

KEEP SOME PRESSURE
ON THAT WOUND

UNTIL I CAN GET
TO THE ARTERY.

PUT SOME MASK ON.

[gasping]

KIDNAPPED? THE PRESIDENT'S
BEEN KIDNAPPED?

I HEARD BALTAR
WAS WITH HER.

ARE YOU SAYING
HE'S RESPONSIBLE?

I HEARD IT WAS
THE CYLONS.

NO, MY PEOPLE SAY
SHE WAS SHOT.

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT... ROSLIN?

NO, ONE OF ADAMA'S MARINES
SHOT A CYLON,

AND THAT IS HOW
THIS ENTIRE THING HAS BEGUN.

[delegates shouting]

[whispering]

[Dualla] SIR, VICE PRESIDENT ZAREK
IS STILL WAITING TO TALK TO YOU.

WHAT SHOULD I TELL HIM?
SIR!

[monitors beeping]

DECK CREW SAYS
THEY JUST SHIPPED OVER

THE LAST OF THE VIPERS.

MEANS WE'RE DOWN 40 BIRDS.
ALMOST AS MANY JOCKS.

WE'RE GONNA HAVE
TO RECONFIGURE THE CAP.

RETHINK OUR DEFENSE POSTURE.

WHERE IS SHE?

CLAMP.

MARINES ARE HOLDING HER.

MY QUARTERS.

[delegates arguing]

[Zarek] ALL RIGHT,
EVERYBODY, CALM DOWN.

[woman]
MR. VICE PRESIDENT!

THANK YOU.
JUST CALM DOWN, PLEASE.

EVERYBODY...

EVERYBODY JUST CALM DOWN,
PLEASE!

MR. VICE PRESIDENT, IT'S REALLY
IMPORTANT THAT WE KNOW.

IS THE PRESIDENT DEAD?

WE... WE HAVE NO INFORMATION...

[woman] I HEARD SHE WAS
ASSASSINATED BY THE CYLONS.

NO, THERE'S NO TRUTH TO THAT
AT LEAST AS FAR AS WE KNOW.

THEN WHAT THE HELL
DO WE KNOW?

CLEARLY OUR FIRST PRIORITY

IS TO GET OUT AS MUCH
VERIFIABLE INFORMATION

AS WE CAN TO AVOID
A GENERAL PANIC.

TO THAT END,
I ASKED ADMIRAL ADAMA

TO COME AND ANSWER
OUR QUESTIONS DIRECTLY.

UNFORTUNATELY, HE WOULDN'T
TAKE MY CALL.

[delegates chattering]

HOWEVER...

HOWEVER...

PLEASE, PLEASE,
JUST A MOMENT.

[Natalie gasping]

HEAVENLY FATHER...

[Zarek]
PRESIDENT ROSLIN WAS

APPARENTLY ABOARD
THE CYLON BASESHIP

ALONG WITH GAIUS BALTAR

AND MANY OF GALACTICA'S
PILOTS WHEN IT JUMPED AWAY.

AFTER ONE OF THEIR OWN LEADERS
WAS SHOT ABOARD GALACTICA.

WE HAVE NO IDEA WHEN OR IF
THEY WILL RETURN,

OR IF THE PRESIDENT
OR THE OTHER CAPTIVES

WILL BE SUBJECT
TO REPRISALS.

OH...

HEAVENLY...

FOR NOW, UNDER THE POWERS
GRANTED ME BY LAW,

I HAVE TAKEN OVER
AS PRESIDENT.

HEAR HEAR!

[delegates pounding table]

[monitor beeping]

[monitor flatlines]

BY REFUSING EVEN TO MEET
WITH ZAREK,

YOU'RE SIMPLY HELPING HIM
FAN THE QUORUM'S SUSPICIONS.

THEIR SUSPICIONS
DON'T CONCERN ME.

[Lee] LOOK,
MAYBE HE'S NOT THE MAN WE HOPED FOR,

BUT HE IS NEXT IN LINE.

AND THE FLEET NEEDS
REASSURANCE AND STABILITY

AND FRANKLY THE KIND

THAT ONLY ITS MILITARY
COMMANDER CAN OFFER.

IF THIS FLEET NEEDS
REASSURANCE,

THAN YOU REASSURE THEM.

THAT'S YOUR JOB NOW.

YOU CAN TELL ZAREK
HE CAN GO TO HELL.

WHY?

[Athena]
SIR...

DO YOU HATE YOUR PEOPLE
SO MUCH,

DID YOU LOOK FOR ANY EXCUSE
TO KILL ONE,

OR DID YOU DELIBERATELY
TRY TO SABOTAGE THIS TRUCE?

NO, SIR, OF COURSE NOT.

THEN YOU TELL ME WHY.

YOU MAKE ME UNDERSTAND
WHY YOU DID THIS.

THEY WERE GONNA TAKE HER.

THE SIX.

SHE WAS GONNA TAKE
MY CHILD.

THERE WERE
TOO MANY WITNESSES.

THEY ALL SAID
THE SAME THING.

YOUR DAUGHTER WAS LOST.

THE CYLON MERELY KNEELED DOWN
AND WAS TALKING TO HER.

MAYBE THAT'S
WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE

TO THE OTHERS, SIR,
BUT I KNOW...

OH, YOU KNEW BETTER.

I HAD A VISION.

A VISION WHERE THE SIX
AND BALTAR

WERE TAKING HERA
AWAY FROM ME.

A VISION.

IT WAS MORE
THAN JUST A VISION, SIR.

WHEN I SAW THEM TOGETHER,

I KNEW THAT THEY WOULD
TAKE HER.

THAT THEY WOULD
TAKE AWAY MY CHILD!

YOU MURDERED
AN UNARMED WOMAN,

AND BY DOING SO
YOU PUT THE LIVES

OF EVERY SINGLE PERSON
IN THIS FLEET AT RISK.

AND QUITE POSSIBLY
COST THE LIVES

OF THE PRESIDENT
AND YOUR HUSBAND.

YOU DISOBEYED
THE DIRECT ORDERS

OF SUPERIOR OFFICER.

BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY...

YOU BETRAYED
A PROMISE TO ME.

I TRUSTED YOU.

[crying]

SIR, I WILL ACCEPT
ANY FORM OF PUNISHMENT

THAT YOU THINK
I DESERVE.

I JUST ASK THAT YOU PLEASE
DON'T TAKE AWAY HERA.

I'M AFRAID THE BRIG

IS NO PLACE
FOR A LITTLE GIRL.

GUARDS!

GET HER
OUT OF MY SIGHT.

[Sood] AT ONE TIME,
ADMIRAL ADAMA SUPPORTED

GAIUS BALTAR'S
ADMINISTRATION.

ISN'T THERE A CHANCE
HE'D SUPPORT YOURS?

I'M AFRAID ONLY ADMIRAL ADAMA
CAN ANSWER THAT.

[Cantrell] THEN I WILL ADDRESS
THIS QUESTION TO DELEGATE ADAMA.

DO YOU HONESTLY THINK
THAT YOUR FATHER

WILL HAND OVER POWER
TO THIS ADMINISTRATION?

NO.

BECAUSE HE HAS NO RESPECT
FOR GOVERNMENT.

[delegates arguing]

[pilot on wireless]
INITIATE SEARCH PATTERN DELTA.

YEAH.

RECON RAPTOR
JUST REPORTED BACK.

THE RESURRECTION
HUB'S GONE.

AND THERE'S NO SIGN
OF THE BASESHIP

WHICH WAS CARRYING
THE PRESIDENT.

ASSUMING THAT'S WHERE
THEY WERE HEADED.

THEY WERE DETERMINED
TO RESURRECT THE THREE.

THE ONE WE USED TO CALL
D'ANNA.

TO DO THAT,
THEY GOTTA GO TO THE HUB.

YOU FIND IT
AND WE'LL FIND THEM.

EASIER SAID THAN DONE.

MAYBE.

WE'VE GOT OTHER PROBLEMS.

STARBUCK'S HAVING TROUBLE

FIELDING ENOUGH PLANES
TO FLY A STANDARD CAP.

WANTS US TO CONSIDER

HAVING THE FLEET
BUNCH UP TIGHTER

SO IT'S EASIER
TO DEFEND.

MEANS COUNTING
ON A BUNCH OF CIVVIES

FLYING CLOSE FORMATION.

YEAH.

ORGANIZE IT.

I GOT YOU APPOINTED
TO THIS JOB.

PULLED STRINGS.
CALLED IN FAVORS.

ALL BECAUSE I THOUGHT
YOU MIGHT DO SOME GOOD.

NOW YOU'RE ADVISING ME
TO STEP ASIDE

FROM A POSITION
THAT BY LAW

IS MINE.

A POSITION
I WAS ELECTED TO.

BUT YOU WERE
NEVER ELECTED PRESIDENT.

BUT I WAS ELECTED
TO OFFICE!

WHICH IS MORE
THAN ROSLIN CAN CLAIM.

WHY DO YOU THINK SHE KEPT ME ON
IN THE FIRST PLACE?

TO THANK ME
FOR ROLLING OVER?

NO.

NO, TO HELP LEGITIMIZE
HER COUP.

IN THE MILITARY...

WE USED TO TALK ABOUT
FACTS ON THE GROUND.

WELL, THE FACTS
ON THE GROUND ARE THESE.

RIGHT OR WRONG,
ADAMA WILL NEVER

RECOGNIZE YOU AS PRESIDENT

AND WE NEED
SOMEONE HE WILL.

NOW THE QUORUM
HAS THE LEGAL AUTHORITY

TO APPOINT
AN INTERIM PRESIDENT

IN A TIME OF CRISIS.

AND I SUPPOSE YOU HAVE
SOMEONE IN MIND.

NO.

NO, NOT YET.

WHICH IS WHY WE NEED
TO FORM A SEARCH COMMITTEE

AND START LOOKING
FOR A CANDIDATE

AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

WELL... GOOD LUCK
WITH THAT.

[McManus on wireless]
SO VICE PRESIDENT ZAREK,

DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE THAT
THIS GOVERNMENT'S IN DANGER?

[Zarek on wireless]
LET'S FACE FACTS, JIM.

WHAT WE'VE HAD
THESE PAST FIVE YEARS

ISN'T A TRUE GOVERNMENT,
BUT A TACIT AGREEMENT

BETWEEN A MILITARY STRONGMAN
AND A POLITICAL STRONGWOMAN

TO RULE TOGETHER BY FIAT.

[McManus] I HEARD YOU ASKED
THE QUORUM TO AUTHORIZE

THE CREATION OF
A CIVIL DEFENSE FORCE.

[Zarek] AFTER WHAT HAPPENED
DURING THE LAST MILITARY COUP,

WE DON'T WANT TO DEPEND
ON GALACTICA'S MARINES

TO GUARANTEE OUR SAFETY...

YOU SEE THE PROBLEM.

LAMPKIN'S FIRST RULE
OF LEGAL DYNAMICS.

WHEN AN IRRESISTIBLE FORCE...

MEETS IMMOVABLE OBJECT...

STAND ASIDE...

AND WAIT FOR
THE CLASS ACTION SUIT.

EXCEPT I'M NOT SURE
IF IT'S TO ANYONE'S BENEFIT

IF WE JUST SIT AROUND
WAITING TO PICK UP THE PIECES.

THIS THING'S HEADING
FOR A SHOWDOWN.

THERE'S GONNA BE BLOODSHED,
UNLESS...

UNLESS YOU CAN FIND
SOMEONE ELSE.

SOMEONE YOUR FATHER
WON'T REJECT.

SOMEONE THE QUORUM
WILL APPROVE OF.

SOMEONE TO TAKE
TOM ZAREK'S PLACE

AS INTERIM PRESIDENT

UNTIL THE NEXT ROUND
OF ELECTIONS.

[snaps fingers]

DON'T TAKE THE CASE,
COUNSELOR.

IT'S A LOSER.

I HAVE TO.

WEHAVE TO.

NO ONE ON THE QUORUM
IS GOING TO LIFT A FINGER.

ZAREK'S GOT THEM
INHALING FEAR

AND EXHALING ANGER.

BUT YOU HAVE TAKEN
THE PULSE OF THE FLEET,

AND YOU KNOW CHARACTER.

AND FRANKLY,
YOU NEED A REASON

TO GET OUT OF THIS ROOM.

UNLESS YOU WANT TO START
DISCUSSING

WHAT'S BEEN
KEEPING YOU HERE.

SO YOU WON'T BE DISSUADED,
WILL YOU?

NOT EVEN WHEN YOU HEAR
MY FEE?

FEE?

APPEARANCES TO THE CONTRARY,

I'M ACTUALLY IN THIS
FOR THE MONEY.

I HAVE A REPUTATION
TO MAINTAIN AFTER ALL.

OKAY, SO WHAT DID ROSLIN
OFFER YOU TO DEFEND BALTAR?

ROOM WITH A VIEW.

WELL, I'M NOT SURE
I CAN IMPROVE ON THAT.

THEN PRO BONO IT IS, COUNSELOR.

A WORD TO THE WISE.

SOMETIMES IT'S BETTER
TO SETTLE

FOR WHAT YOU'VE ALREADY GOT.

[Adama]
COLONEL TIGH.

I UNDERSTAND YOU'VE
DEVELOPED A RELATIONSHIP

WITH THE CYLON PRISONER.

THAT'S NOT THE WORD
I'D USE,

BUT SHE HAD BEEN
MORE COOPERATIVE.

SEE IF SHE'LL TELL YOU
ANYTHING ABOUT THE HUB.

BILL.

WE'LL FIND HER.

WE'LL FIND ALL OF THEM.

[door buzzes]

THE RESURRECTION HUB.
HOW DO WE FIND IT?

I'M SURE THE OTHERS
HAVE TOLD YOU.

YOUTELL ME.

ONLY OUR HYBRIDS
CAN LOCATE IT.

AND THEN ONLY AFTER
IT COMPLETES A JUMP.

EVEN THEY CAN'T ANTICIPATE
WHERE IT'S GOING.

YOU'RE HOLDING BACK
SOMETHING.

I KNOW IT.

YOU'RE LYING.

I HAVE NEVER LIED
TO YOU, SAUL.

WHY DON'T YOU
TRUST ME NOW?

BECAUSE THERE ARE TOO MANY
LIVES AT STAKE, LADY.

YOUR BUDDIES TOOK OFF
WITH HALF AN AIR WING,

NOT TO MENTION
THE PRESIDENT

OF THE FRAKKIN' COLONIES
HERSELF.

SHE'S THE REAL REASON
YOU'RE SO ANGRY.

SO WORRIED.
I CAN HEAR IT IN YOUR VOICE.

WHY?

WHY IS A DYING WOMAN
SO IMPORTANT TO YOU?

NOT TO ME, GODS DAMN IT.
TO THE OLD MAN!

ADMIRAL ADAMA?

SAUL.

DO YOU LOVE ME? WHAT?!

BE HONEST WITH ME.
I'VE BEEN HONEST WITH YOU.

I DON'T BELIEVE THIS.

YOU'RE ASKING ME IF...

[man on intercom]
ATTENTION!

SET CONDITION ONE
THROUGHOUT THE SHIP.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL. THIS HAS GONE
TOO FRAKKIN' FAR.

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT KIND OF MIND GAMES

YOU ARE PLAYING WITH ME,
LADY, BUT IT ENDS HERE!

[door buzzes and opens]

WHAT DO WE GOT?

ONE OF OUR MISSING RAPTORS
JUMPED INTO DRADIS RANGE.

YOU SURE IT'S OURS?

TRANSPONDER CHECKS OUT.

IT'S ONE OF THE RAPTORS

THAT BOARDED
THE MISSING BASESHIP.

NO RADIOLOGICAL SIGNATURE.

RACETRACK AND SKULLS

ARE ON THEIR WAY
TO INTERCEPT.

[Racetrack]
ACTUAL, RACETRACK.

I'M EYEBALLING
OUR BIRD NOW.

LOOKS SHOT TO HELL.

VENTING FUEL AND O2.

STILL NO RESPONSE TO HAILS.

SOMEONE HAD TO JUMP
THAT BIRD.

I CAN'T SEE
A FRAKKING THING FROM HERE.

SKULLS, TAKE THE WHEEL.
I'M GOING FOR A WALK.

[Racetrack] DECOMPRESSION CHECK OKAY.
OPENING HATCH.

SAFETY LINE SECURE.
MOVING TOWARD THE RAPTOR.

I'M SEEING MAJOR DAMAGE
TO THE CANOPY.

LOOKS EMPTY INSIDE.

[grunting]

I'VE GOT THE HATCH OPEN,
BUT IT'S STUCK.

UNH!

GRAV FIELD'S OFF.

IT'S PIKE.

HE'S DEAD.

THIS IS THE SHUTTLE

SHE TOOK OVER
TO THE BASESHIP.

LAIRD WAS ABLE TO SALVAGE
THE FLIGHT DATA RECORDER.

PUTS THE ORIGINATING
JUMP POINT

DEEP IN SECTOR
DELTA NINE.

PRESIDENT ZAREK
CALLED AGAIN.

HE HEARD
ABOUT THE RAPTOR

AND HE'S WAITING
TO BE BRIEFED.

RECALL THE CAP.

SPIN UP THE FTLs.

WHAT ABOUT THE FLEET? LET'S GO.

[Lampkin] WE ARE ESSENTIALLY
LOOKING FOR AN UNDERSTUDY.

THE QUANDARY IS
ONE DOESN'T GENERALLY

GET THE CHANCE TO WIELD
POLITICAL POWER

WITHOUT THE AMBITION

TO ACTIVELY SEEK IT.

ARE YOU OKAY IN THERE, LANCE?

THAT SAME AMBITION
OFTEN COMPROMISES

THE UNSELFISH MOTIVES
THAT BEGAT THE QUEST.

IN OTHER WORDS,
A BATTLE OF ID VERSUS EGO

THAT EGO RARELY WINS.

ROSLIN NEVER SOUGHT POWER.

EXCEPTION THAT PROVES
THE RULE.

ONE COULD ARGUE
THAT LAURA ROSLIN

IS A STUDY
IN REPRESSED AMBITION.

JUST LIKE YOU, MR. ADAMA.

NEVER SEEKING OUT A JOB
UNTIL IT'S HANDED TO YOU.

FLIGHT LEADER,
BATTLESTAR COMMANDER,

QUORUM DELEGATE.

A MAN DOESN'T CARVE OUT
A PATH LIKE THAT

THROUGH LIFE WITHOUT...

ALL RIGHT, ENOUGH
OF THE PSYCHOANALYSIS.

LET'S GET BACK
TO THE JOB IN HAND.

DOES YOUR FATHER
HAVE SOME OTHER PLACE

HE WANTS TO GO?

WHAT?

WHERE THE HELL
DID THEY GO?

AND WHY DIDN'T THEY
TELL US?

[DRADIS beeping]

[Racetrack]
GALACTICA, RACETRACK.

WE'VE LOCATED THE SOURCE
OF THE TRANSPONDER.

IT'S SANDMAN'S VIPER
ALL RIGHT.

BUT NO SANDMAN.

AFFIRMATIVE.
KEEP SEARCHING.

WE'RE GETTING RADIATION
SIGNATURES FROM MULTIPLE NUKES.

BASESHIP FRAGMENTS,

OTHER DEBRIS INDICATIVE
OF RESURRECTION TECHNOLOGY.

I'M AFRAID IT PAINTS
A PRETTY CLEAR PICTURE.

THEY FOUND THE HUB
AND THEY DESTROYED IT.

LOOKS LIKE
OUR PILOTS HELPED.

QUESTION IS, WHERE'D
THEY GO FROM HERE?

BILL, YOU ARE
WAY TOO CLOSE TO THIS.

THE PRESIDENT'S BASESHIP
WAS DESTROYED.

IT'S A DIFFERENT BASESHIP.

AND WE'LL SEARCH EVERY SQUARE INCH

OF THIS DEBRIS FIELD

UNTIL WE COME UP WITH A CLUE.

WHAT, AND LEAVE THE REST
OF THE FLEET BACK THERE

WITH THEIR ASSES
HANGING IN THE WIND?

DETAIL FOUR RAPTORS
TO STAY BEHIND.

THEY KEEP SEARCHING

UNTIL THEY FIND
SOMETHING CONCRETE.

GIVE MY ORDER.

[female delegate] GOOD PEOPLE,
LISTEN UP. WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO HERE?

THEY'VE LEFT
35,000 LIVES...

ALL RIGHT, EVERYBODY,
GATHER AROUND, PLEASE.

GATHER AROUND. [delegates shouting]

PLEASE, PLEASE!

I'M SORRY, ADMIRAL ADAMA
WILL NOT BE COMING

TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS.

I DID LEARN, HOWEVER,

THAT HE CONTACTED
THE FLEET'S CAPTAINS

TO INFORM THEM
THAT SEVERAL OF THEIR SHIPS

WILL BE REQUISITIONED
TO EXPAND THE SEARCH

FOR LAURA ROSLIN
AND THE MISSING BASESHIP.

WHILE ALL TYLIUM SHIPMENTS

WILL BE DIVERTED
TO SUPPORT THAT MISSION.

BUT HE'S BYPASSING US
COMPLETELY!

I UNDERSTAND.
I UNDERSTAND.

WE'RE DOING THE BEST...
I UNDERSTAND...

THAT IS NOTHING SHORT
OF A MILITARY COUP!

[delegates shouting]

CAPTAIN FRANKS?

I WAS IMPRESSED
BY HER GRAVITAS

DURING HER TURN AS JUDGE
IN THE BALTAR TRIAL.

THAT AND HER VOTE,
NATURALLY.

NO, SHE'S ALREADY BEEN
APPROACHED TO RUN FOR OFFICE.

NO INTEREST
IN POLITICS.

SADLY, NOW SHE REALLY
IMPRESSES ME.

GODS.

YOU EVER FEED
THAT ANIMAL?

WHERE IS HE, ANYWAY?

[Lance meows]

COME ON, ROMO, LET'S PUT
OUR HEADS TOGETHER.

WE CAN DO BETTER
THAN THIS.

WHO WOULD ADAMA RESPECT
AS PRESIDENT?

GOOD QUESTION.

WHAT DOES THIS SEARCH
FOR PARAGONS NET US ANYWAY

EXCEPT GREATER GUILT
AT OUR OWN FAILINGS?

OR WORSE, THE IDIOT'S
ILLUSION OF THE CLEAN SLATE.

A FRESH START.

WHOA, WHOA!

WE HAVEN'T RULED OUT

ALL THESE NAMES YET.

THIS ONE'S A LOSER.

AN EXERCISE IN FUTILITY.

[muttering]

LAWYERS.

HOW'S THIS GONNA
AFFECT THE PRESIDENT...

THE BREAK
IN HER TREATMENT?

ASSUMING NO OTHER CHANGES
IN HER CIRCUMSTANCES?

YES.

WELL, DOLOXAN REALLY
KICKS YOUR ASS,

SO SHE ACTUALLY MIGHT
FEEL BETTER AT FIRST.

BUT ANY BREAK GIVES
THE CANCER

A CHANCE TO REGROUP.

MAKES IT THAT MUCH HARDER
TO BEAT IT BACK.

PLUS SHE'S TAKEN A HIT
TO HER IMMUNE SYSTEM

SO SHE'LL BE VULNERABLE
TO INFECTIONS.

HOW LONG?

WELL, LET'S JUST SAY

THAT THE SOONER
YOU GET HER BACK HERE,

THE BETTER
HER CHANCES ARE.

AND WHILE
YOU'RE DIGESTING THAT,

I HAVE SOME OTHER NEWS.

I RAN SOME TESTS
ON YOUR CYLON PRISONER.

GUESS WHAT I FOUND.

RAPTORS ARE DUE BACK
IN A FEW HOURS.

GRANTED, IF THEY'D HAVE
FOUND ANYTHING,

WE WOULD HAVE HEARD
FROM THEM BY NOW.

STILL, ONCE WE CORRELATE
THEIR REPORTS...

I'M NOT INTERESTED
IN THE SEARCH.

YOU'RE NOT?

I KNOW THAT YOU'VE BEEN
SPENDING A LOT OF TIME

INTERROGATING THE SIX.

BUT NOW
THE BRIG GUARDS TELL ME

THAT EVERY TIME
YOU ORDER THEM OUT

THAT YOU TURN OFF
THE CAMERAS.

I'M NOT TORTURING HER,

IF THAT'S WHAT
YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT.

I'M NOT.

THAT I COULD
ALMOST UNDERSTAND.

THIS I CAN'T.

COTTLE TELLS ME
SHE'S PREGNANT.

WHAT THE FRAK HAVE YOU BEEN THINKING, COLONEL?

DO YOU DENY IT?

YOU DON'T.

YOU CAN'T!

WHAT THE HELL
HAVE YOU BEEN THINKING?

WHO WAS INTERROGATING WHO?

HOW MANY OF OUR SECRETS
HAVE YOU TOLD THIS THING?

HOW CAN YOU EVEN
ASK ME THAT?

QUESTION MY LOYALTY?

YOUR LOYALTY?

I NEED MORE
THAN YOUR LOYALTY.

YOU'RE MY FIRST OFFICER.

I NEED JUDGMENT.
I NEED YOUR COMPETENCE.

I'M THROUGH
JEOPARDIZING THIS SHIP,

PUTTING IT AT RISK
BECAUSE OF YOUR WEAKNESS.

MY WEAKNESS? YEAH, YOUR WEAKNESS!

YOU'RE RISKING
ALL OUR LIVES FOR WHAT?

OUR MISSING PILOTS?
NO, FOR A WOMAN!

FOR A FRAKKIN' WOMAN!

YOU WATCH WHAT YOU FRAKKIN'
SAY ABOUT THAT WOMAN.

SHE'S THE PRESIDENT.

NOT SOME FRAKKIN' SKINJOB
THAT I'VE BEEN BANGING.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ELLEN
WOULD SAY ABOUT THIS?

YOU LEAVE ELLEN
OUT OF THIS.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ELLEN
WOULD SAY ABOUT HER HUSBAND

IMPREGNATING
A FRAKKIN' CYLON PRISONER.

YOU MOTHER-FRAKKER!

UNH!

[Adama and Tigh
breathing heavily]

YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES

I'VE HAD TO REPAIR
THIS THING?

UNH!

[model clatters]

UNH.

OH.

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO
WITH THAT WOMAN?

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO
ABOUT LAURA

IF YOU EVER FIND HER?

I DON'T KNOW.

[humming]

[Adama]
HAVE THE RAPTORS

AND THE CIVILIAN SHIPS
BEGIN THEIR SEARCH

FROM PHANTOM'S
LAST KNOWN POSITION.

IS THAT A PROBLEM?

SIR, RESPECTFULLY,

I'VE ALREADY GOT
TWO MISSING PILOTS

AND HARDLY ENOUGH BIRDS
LEFT TO PROTECT THIS FLEET.

NOW YOU'RE ASKING ME

TO SEND THE REMAINDER
OF THE RAPTORS

OUT ON A BLIND SEARCH
LOOKING FOR A SHIP

THAT VERY WELL
MAY BE DESTROYED.

MY PEOPLE ARE GONNA FEEL
LIKE THEIR BEING ASKED

TO GO
ON SUICIDE MISSIONS.

I'M NOT ASKING.

YOU'RE DISMISSED, CAPTAIN.

[Lampkin]
ADMIRAL ADAMA.

MR. LAMPKIN, WHAT ARE
YOU DOING HERE?

WRITS OF FORFEITURE

FOR THE SHIPS
YOU'RE BORROWING.

THE CAPTAINS WANT TO BE
ABSOLVED OF ANY BLAME

SHOULD ANYTHING
UNTOWARD HAPPEN.

ONE OF THE LESS
ENNOBLING CONSEQUENCES

OF A LEGAL CULTURE.

NO ONE WANTS
RESPONSIBILITY.

LEE SAID YOU ONCE GAVE
HIM SOMETHING

BEFORE A MISSION.

A LIGHTER, WAS IT?

BELONGED TO MY FATHER.

FOOLISH TO THINK
A HUNK OF METAL

COULD KEEP HIM SAFE.

AND YET, THAT'S WHAT
WE DO, ISN'T IT?

HANG ONTO HOPE

IN EVERY HOPELESSLY
IRRATIONAL WAY THAT WE CAN.

BUT NOT LIKE
THOSE POOR BASTARDS

GIVING AWAY THEIR LUCK

JUST WHEN
THEY NEED IT MOST.

IT'S LIKE
THEY'VE GIVEN UP.

IF YOU'VE NEVER BEEN
IN COMBAT,

YOU HAVE NO IDEA
WHAT THEY'RE THINKING.

I ALWAYS IMAGINED YOU
A REALIST, ADMIRAL.

NOT ONE TO INDULGE
A VAIN HOPE

AT THE COST OF LIVES.

BUT THEN...

EVERYONE HAS HIS LIMITS.

"SINE QUA NON,"
AS THEY SAY.

"WITHOUT WHICH NOT."

YES.

THOSE THINGS
WE DEEM ESSENTIAL

WITHOUT WHICH
WE CANNOT BEAR LIVING.

WITHOUT WHICH
LIFE IN GENERAL

LOSES ITS
SPECIFIC VALUE.

BECOMES ABSTRACT.

YOU MAY HAVE A POINT,
COUNSELOR.

THEN WHILE
I'M ON A ROLL...

TOM ZAREK MAY NOT BE
AN IDEAL PRESIDENT,

BUT WE COULD DO WORSE.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

THERE ARE LIMITS
TO MY REALISM.

GOOD-BYE, COUNSELOR.

I CAN'T GIVE UP ON HER.

I CAN'T LET HER GO.

I'VE LOST MY OBJECTIVITY.

AND NOW THAT I SEE THAT,

I HAVE NO CHOICE.

TELL THE QUORUM THAT
I'M RELINQUISHING COMMAND

EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.

NO MAN IS PERFECT.

NO MAN IS LESS PERFECT

THAN A CANDIDATE
FOR HIGH OFFICE.

AND THUS...

THE RANKS OF LIKELY SUSPECTS
IS WINNOWED TO NONE.

[Lance meows]

WHAT IF WE'RE GOING
ABOUT THIS BACKWARDS?

HEY, LANCE?

WHAT IF INSTEAD OF...

PICKING
NAMES AND FINDING FAULT

THAT WE ASK OURSELVES

THE QUALITIES THAT WE...
THAT WE WANT...

NO.

NO, WHAT WE NEED

IN A NEW CHIEF EXECUTIVE

AND SEE WHO FITS
THAT BILL.

HONESTY, OF COURSE.

THE WISDOM TO RECOGNIZE

THE CORRECT
FROM POPULAR CHOICE.

AS WELL THE COURAGE
TO SEE IT THROUGH.

EXPERIENCE.

WHEN THE WRONG CHOICES
COST LIVES

AND THE RIGHT ONES SAVE.

TALL ORDER.

[Lance meows]

WE MIGHT AS WELL
SPELL OUT ONE NAME.

AH!

JUST ONE.

ONE WE KNEW FROM THE START.

SOMETIMES YOU TAKE ON
A LOSING CASE

AND YOU MAKE YOURSELF
A BELIEVER.

OTHER TIMES, NO MATTER
WHAT YOU TELL YOURSELF...

IN YOUR HEART...

YOU KNOW THE OUTCOME
IS FIXED.

THE VERDICT INEVITABLE.

LANCE, DEFENSE RESTS.

COME ON.

APOLOGIES.

I COULDN'T WAIT
TO TELL YOU.

TELL ME WHAT? WE FOUND OUR CANDIDATE.

SOMEONE THE QUORUM
WON'T HESITATE TO APPROVE

EVEN OVER
ZAREK'S OBJECTIONS.

SOMEONE THE ADMIRAL
CAN'T HELP

BUT ACCEPT.

YEAH? WHO?

CONGRATULATIONS,
MR. PRESIDENT.

MY NAME WAS NEVER
ON THAT LIST.

OF COURSE NOT.

THAT WOULD BE
TOO BLATANT.

BUT IT IS EVERYTHING
YOU ALWAYS WANTED, ISN'T IT?

WHY YOU HAD ME CROSS
47 NAMES OFF THAT LIST.

COME ON.

ADMIT IT.

SAVOR YOUR VICTORY,
MR. ADAMA.

'CAUSE YOU'LL NEVER GET
THE CHANCE TO SERVE.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING? WHY?

'CAUSE YOU'RE PERFECT
FOR THE JOB, OF COURSE.

'CAUSE AFTER
THE VICIOUS ABERRATION

THAT WAS
BALTAR'S PRESIDENCY,

AND THE BITTER
DISAPPOINTMENT

THAT WAS ROSLIN'S,

YOU ARE... A SHINING
BEACON OF HOPE.

ONLY HOPE IS
THE LAST THING WE NEED.

WE'RE A DOOMED RACE.

AND IT'S TIME
THAT WE MADE OUR PEACE

WITH THAT ESSENTIAL TRUTH.

ROMO, WHAT THE HELL
ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

WHY? YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY?

OPEN IT!

OKAY.

[exhales]

LANCE.

THAT'S RIGHT.

THEY KILLED MY CAT!

THEY?
THEY!

THOSE DEBASED DREGS
OF HUMANITY OUT THERE.

OUR LOST TRIBE IN SEARCH
OF A NEW HOME

SO THEY CAN ROOST
AND ROT AGAIN.

ROMO, HOW LONG
HAS THE CAT BEEN DEAD?

HOW LONG?!

IT'S IRRELEVANT!
IT'S IMMATERIAL!

SINCE IT WASN'T EVEN
MY CAT.

ROMO, HE'S BEEN DEAD
FOR WEEKS.

IT BELONGED TO MY WIFE.

I JUST RETRIEVED HIM
FROM A VET ON GEMENON

WHEN THE BOMBS
STARTED TO FALL,

AND FATE PRESENTED ME
WITH A CHOICE.

I COULD GET BACK
ON THAT SHUTTLE OR...

I COULD RUN HOME AND...

TRY TO SAVE MY FAMILY.

HOW DO YOU THINK I CHOSE?

ROMO, WE'VE ALL HAD TO MAKE
DIFFICULT CHOICES.

YOU DON'T THINK I KNOW?

YOUR WIFE'S NAME WAS FAYE.

YOU HAD TWO DAUGHTERS,
JENNIFER AND KATIE.

THERE WERE OVER 200
PASSENGERS ON THAT SHUTTLE.

ONLY A HANDFUL CHOSE TO STAY BEHIND.

YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.

IT WAS IN YOUR FILE

WHEN YOU WERE HANDED THE JOB
AS BALTAR'S COUNSEL.

BUT NO ONE BLAMED YOU, ROMO.

BECAUSE AT A CERTAIN POINT, WE ALL MADE DECISIONS

THAT SAVED OUR LIVES
AT THE COST OF OTHERS.

YOU THINK
YOU'RE UNIQUE, ROMO?

THINK YOUR SINS
ARE SO SPECIAL?

IS THAT IT, COUNSELOR?

YOU'RE GONNA REST
YOUR ENTIRE CASE

ON THAT PATHETIC
LITTLE BIT OF INSIGHT?

NO... ON THIS.

THE CLEAN SLATE,
THE FRESH START,

MAYBE THEY ARE ILLUSIONS
LIKE YOU SAID.

BUT AT A CERTAIN POINT,
FAITH IN OURSELVES

IN OUR RIGHT TO SURVIVE AS A SPECIES, AS A PEOPLE,

THAT'S NOT A GIVEN...

THAT'S A CHOICE.

WELL, I'VE MADE MINE.

AND IF YOU CAN'T
STOMACH THAT,

THEN YOU HAD
DAMN WELL BETTER

SQUEEZE THAT TRIGGER
RIGHT NOW.

GO ON.

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

OR YOU CAN MAKE A CHOICE.

PUT YOUR PAST BEHIND YOU...

PUT THE GUN DOWN...

AND HELP ME.

BECAUSE I'M TELLING YOU,

I'M GONNA MAKE
A DIFFERENCE IN THIS FLEET.

IS THAT YOUR FINAL WORD?

THAT'S UP TO YOU.

THEN SWEAR IT.

[Lee]
I, LELAND JOSEPH ADAMA,

DO NOW AVOW AND AFFIRM...

[priest]
THAT I TAKE THE OFFICE

OF PRESIDENT
OF THE 12 COLONIES OF KOBOL

WITHOUT ANY MORAL RESERVATION
OR MENTAL EVASION.

[Lee]
THAT I TAKE THE OFFICE

OF PRESIDENT
OF THE 12 COLONIES OF KOBOL

WITHOUT ANY MORAL RESERVATION
OR MENTAL EVASION.

THIS IS A FRAKKIN' JOKE.

YOU'RE THE ONLY MAN
I CAN TRUST

TO COMMAND THIS SHIP.

MAYBE YOU'RE CRAZY ENOUGH
TO PULL A STUNT LIKE THIS,

BUT YOU CAN'T BE CRAZY ENOUGH
TO LEAVE ME IN CHARGE.

IN CASE YOU FORGOT,
MY LAST TERM AT THE HELM

WAS A COMPLETE DISASTER.

THAT WAS A LONG TIME AGO.

YOU'RE NOT THE SAME MAN
THAT YOU WERE.

YOU'RE NOT EVEN
THE SAME MAN

WHO CAME BACK
FROM NEW CAPRICA.

YOU FOUND OUT A LOT
ABOUT YOURSELF.

BEEN TESTED IN WAYS I CAN
BARELY BEGIN TO IMAGINE.

YOU'RE READY.

BESIDES...

DON'T COUNT ON THIS
BEING PERMANENT.

WHAT IF IT IS?

PUT THESE ON.

AND YOU LEAD THE PEOPLE
TO EARTH

THE BEST WAY YOU CAN.

THE FLEET HAS STAYED HERE
TOO LONG ALREADY.

ANY OTHER LAST ORDERS?

JUST ONE.

GIVE ATHENA BACK
HER DAUGHTER.

SHE NEEDS HER FAMILY.

WE ALL NEED OUR FAMILY.

TAKE CARE OF THIS ONE.

ALL RIGHT, LET ME SEE
THE CHANGES

BEFORE YOU GET THIS OUT
TO THE PRESS.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.

MR. LAMPKIN.

ROMO.

ONE DAY IN OFFICE

AND YOU'RE ALREADY GOT
A FIRST PET.

JAKE HERE IS A GENUINE
HERO OF THE RESISTANCE.

[Jake barks]AREN'T YOU, JAKE?

UNFORTUNATELY,
HIS PREVIOUS OWNERS

HAD TO LET HIM GO.

JAKE, MEET ROMO.

ROMO, MEET JAKE.

YOUR NEW BEST FRIEND.

IF THERE'S ONE THING
I HATE MORE THAN CATS,

IT'S DOGS.

SEE, A NEW PET
FOR YOU TO LOATHE.

I KNEW IT WOULD BE
THE PERFECT GIFT.

GOOD LUCK, JAKE.

[barks]

I HEAR YOU'RE KEEPING ZAREK
AS VICE PRESIDENT.

I CAN USE THE ADVICE.

AND AS LONG AS HE KNOWS
HE'S HEARD,

I THINK I CAN TRUST HIM.

I DON'T KNOW IF I AGREE
WITH YOUR THINKING.

WELL, I COULD SAY
THE SAME THING ABOUT YOURS.

THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS
YOU'RE GONNA BE PRESIDENT.

I'M JUST GETTING
IN A PLANE.

WAITING ALONE IN A RAPTOR

WHILE THE REST OF THE FLEET
JUMPS AWAY.

THAT'S NOT JUST
GETTING IN A PLANE.

THAT SOUNDS A LOT LIKE...

WELL, IT SOUNDS A LOT
LIKE SUICIDE, DAD.

AT LEAST THIS TIME I'M ONLY
RISKING MY OWN NECK.

SO I GUESS IT WON'T MATTER
IF AS PRESIDENT

I ORDER YOU
NOT TO DO THIS?

I DON'T KNOW IF I EVER
TOLD YOU THIS,

BUT ONE OF MY FIRST MISSIONS
WAS A SOLO RECON.

ME ALONE IN A RAPTOR
IN ENEMY SPACE.

I'M NOT GONNA LIE TO YOU.
I WAS SCARED.

TOLD MYSELF THAT I WAS
DOING MY DUTY,

AND ULTIMATELY
I FACED MY FEAR.

THAT'S A GOOD MEMORY.

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?

BECAUSE I CAN'T LIVE
WITHOUT HER.

AND LAURA'S GONNA GET
TO THE RENDEZVOUS POINT.

I HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT.

ADMIRAL.

ADMIRAL.

WHAT DO YOU HEAR,
STARBUCK?

NOTHING BUT THE RAIN, SIR.

GRAB YOUR GUN
AND BRING THE CAT IN.

YES, SIR.

KEEP A LIGHT ON.
I'LL BE BACK.

YOU CAN COUNT ON IT.

[Sharon humming]

GALACTICA, THIS IS HUSKER.
I'M IN POSITION.

AFFIRMATIVE, HUSKER.

[wireless beeps]

ALL FLEET SHIPS,

THIS IS GALACTICA ACTUAL.

- Sh
- Aw, how cute.
