"Previously on Battlestar Galactica..." "Looks like mommy's gonna get some sleep tonight after all." "Cally!" "Stay the frak away from me!" "I heard you." "You're Cylons." "I know that you've been spending a lot of time interrogating the Six." "I'm not torturing her, if that's what you're worried about." "Cottle tells me she's pregnant." "Are you just gonna lie down and quit?" "I was wrong about everything." "And all those people who listened and trusted me, they're dead." "We will find a new home." "This is a promise..." "I intend to keep." "Get the Cylon base ship on the horn." "See if our new allies want to come along for the ride." "Frak..." ""There is a languor of the life,"" ""more imminent than pain."" ""This pain's successor,"" ""when the soul has suffered all it can."" "I don't see anything." "Wait, I see something." " Where?" " Right there." " Wait... no?" " I thought I saw it." " Saw what?" " Everyone shut the frak up for a second." "Got it." "There." "Yeah, there it is." "I see it." "I see it!" "Oh my God, there it is." "It's so beautiful!" "I still don't see anything." "Try looking with your eyes... eye." "Here, Colonel." "See, this is the head... shoulder, and there's a little hand." "I'll be damned." "It's our baby, Saul." "Our baby." "I need a drink." "Here." "Next best thing." "That's a lot of smoking around a pregnant lady." "She'll live." "Look at that, Saul." "Do you know what that is, really?" "That's the future of the entire Cylon race." "It doesn't even have a name yet and already loading up on the expectations." "All he has to do is be born." "No Cylon/Cylon pairing has ever produced a child, ever." "Believe me, it's been tried." "That means it's..." "That means it's possible for our race to survive, even without resurrection." "The Cylon nation will survive." "Ishay, get me the fetal monitor." "I wanna work up a complete bio-physical profile on this... saviour." "Oh, sorry, Felix." "He's backed up today, but he shouldn't be much longer." "No problem." "At least the Cylons are having fun, right?" "I mean, Earth's incinerated, Dee's dead." "Suicides are up, Fleet's a mess." "President's missing in action, but gotta make sure the Cylons are taken care of." "Rub this into the skin, it will help with the drying and the chapping, right?" "No, no, frak that." "I've gone through two jars of that stuff already, it doesn't do anything." "The end cap needs to be refitted." "I already told him it's too high on one side, but he won't listen." "I'm sorry, Felix." "I'm really sorry." "Look, I promise I will get you in there as soon as I can." " It's just been crazy..." " I need help!" " I need help!" " It's busy today, Chief." " He's peeing blood." " It's gonna be a while." "We'll get him to bed 3." "I'll go and get the doctor." " Sorry." " No problem." "Ishay, where's the damn fetal monitor?" " Can't keep those toasters waiting." " Right." "Admiral!" "Admiral!" " Yes." " Admiral..." "Is Colonel Tigh still serving as Executive Officer?" "And aren't you concerned about having a Cylon as second in command?" "I'm not going to discuss military protocol, or chain of command." " Admiral!" " Yes." "Is it true you're comtemplating forming a permanent alliance with the rebel Cylons currently in this fleet?" "I'm not gonna talk about hypotheticals." "Mister Vice President, do you support such a move?" "No comment." "Serious." "Unbelievable." "Where is President Roslin?" "Thank you, Playa..." "The President is resting comfortably aboard Galactica." "Last question." "Yes, Seku." "Do you have any information on the identity of the 5th Cylon?" "We believe the 5th Cylon to be dead." "But you're not sure." "No, but we believe she died some time ago..." ""She"?" "How do you know it was a woman?" "That was the last question." "Thank you all very much for coming." " My Gods, I can't believe I said that." " What was that about?" " Forget about it." " A permanent alliance between this government and Cylons, any Cylons, is out of the question." "I hope you both know that." " Yeah, well, it's not your call." " Is it yours?" "Are you the President again?" "Sorry, I get confused what your job is on any given day." "Laura Roslin is still the President." "She'll make the final call." "And where is Laura Roslin?" "Oh, that's right." "Resting comfortably aboard Galactica." "Funny as she kinda dropped out of sight ever since her prophecies about Earth... turned out to be a bunch of crap." "We're done here." "Just try to shove an alliance down the Cylon's throats... there will be consequences, Admiral." "I promise you." "Thank you, Mister Zarek." "Makes it a little bit easier... to know who to hold responsible if there's an unfortunate incident." "I'm not hard to find, Admiral." "I'm right here." "Running the government." "For now." "Battlestar Galactica Season 4" " Episode 12" ""A Disquiet Follows My Soul" The feeling on the base ship is that we'd rather take our chances with you, than risk running into Cavil's forces alone." " We?" " Yes." "We, the Cylons." "That description fit anyone around here you know?" "Have this discussion another time." "What about the FTL question?" "It's possible." "Its labour intends a lot of grunt work, but we should be able to upgrade... all the jump drives in the entire Fleet with Cylon technology." "Not gonna be easy to sell the Quorum on this one." "Frak the Quorum." "These are civilian ships." "What are you going to do?" "Upgrade their engines at gunpoint?" "We need the Quorum to get civilian cooperation." "Alright." "What will it take to get the Quorum to sign off?" "Well the first issue's gonna be whether we can make these upgrades with Galactica personnel only." "It's one thing to accept..." "Cylon technology." "It's quite another to... have actual Cylons aboard their ships." "I barely understand this stuff, I'm..." "We... are gonna need teams of" "Sharons and Sixes... possibly Leobens just to do the installations." " Don't go nuts." " We gotta sell 'em on it." "Point out the benefits." "Athena tells me the upgrade should triple the Fleet's jump capacity." "Absolutely." "And that's conservative." "Their technology..." "Our technology, is way ahead of ours." "Yours." "Maybe you'd like a chart to keep it all straight." " What do you think?" " Well..." "Tripling jump capacity, triples our chances of finding a habitable planet before we run out of food and fuel." " That I might be able to sell." " What's the catch?" "Coz there is a catch, right... former Chief?" "We wanna be part of the Fleet." "Not just along for the ride." "Full members, citizens, seat in the Quorum, the whole thing." " What?" " Are you insane?" " Unnegotiable." "You want Cylon technology, we want safety in case Cavil's forces arrive." "Now for citizens... your oath... states that you protect us just like everybody else." "And the... the other Cylons... do you really think that will guarantee your safety?" "Yes, they do." "I've convinced them that the Admiral takes these certain things very seriously." "That he would rather lose the Fleet... than break the oath." " Unlike certain other people." "Unlike certain other people." "I understand your argument." "It makes sense from their perspective." "You're not seriously thinking about this?" "Sir." "You're not seriously thinking about this, sir?" "All options are on the table, mister Gaeta." "This is a political decision." "I'll have to run it by the President." "Thank you all." "Admiral, could I have word?" "Accute renal failure." "I think we caught it in time to manage with dialysis." "However there's a chance that this could lead to cronic renal failure." "And if that happens, he's gonna lose a kidney." "What's the next step, what do I do?" "Give some blood, build up a supply?" "We have enough of his type in the blood bank." "He's half Cylon." "You got a lot of half Cylon blood just lying around, do you?" "No, no, you're right, I haven't thought about that." "We should... tap a vein and start a supply right away." " This is ridiculous, you have to tell him!" " Ishay!" " Tell me what?" " This little boy could die!" " His father should know." " Ishay, zip it!" "What the hell is she talking about?" "We'll talk about this later." "I guess you'd better come with me." "Hey, buddy." "How's it going?" "Daddy's just gonna be there." "Alright." "This is gonna be a shock." "But I want you to know that I was bound by doctor-patient confidentiality in this," "Even though she's dead now, it's still applied." "Cally." "You're talking about Cally." "What the frak does she..." "I'm not his father, am I?" "I'm sorry." "She found out she was pregnant just before you got married." "She wasn't sure that you were the father." "She wanted me to terminate the pregnancy, the procedure is illegal, but... there are ways around it, however she decided to keep it." "Then later on she asked me to do a paternity test because she wanted to know." "And it wasn't me." "Who?" "He doesn't know either." "And I'll be damned if he's gonna find out that he's a father, from a pissed off former deck chief with a Cylon chip on his shoulder." "No, I`ll have to tell him." "I`ll tell him and then the two of you can work it out on your own." "You know, the President stopped returning my calls." "She's going through a rough patch." "We all are." "But she`ll get through it." "It just takes time." "Ok." "But we need to know how she stands in this citizen ship matter sooner rather than later." "I`ll talk to you about it later." "Give me the President." "If we can sway the public opinion towards us, or at least not against us, you think that Zarek and the Quorum can be handled?" "He's probably right." "Oh, I`m so stiff." " You sure you up for this?" " Yeah sure... it's just..." "I`m just stretching." "A little aerobics." "Truth is i haven`t felt this good in months." "Oh, it hurts." "That's good." "When do you have to go and do another Doloxan treatment?" "Tomorrow." "Good." "Lee thinks, and I agree with him... you should address the fleet." "Make a public declaration." "That an alliance with the Cylons is essential for our long term survival." "Sure." "Not just yet though." "I need a little time." "It's what I told them." "We need you, Laura." "I know that you're tired but we need you." "I hear you." "I`ll do it." "Trust me." "I need a little time." "Go..." "Go." " Just don`t over-do it, alright?" " I won`t." "Captain Thrace..." "Whatever it is, I`m not in the mood, Felix." "Asking permission to give a frack about your mood." "Okay, let's have it." "You tried to throw me out of an airlock once." "Still crying about that?" "Charges at that time were..." "Collaborating with an enemy at the time of war." "I`m waiting for the punch line." "Turns out that the jury that convicted me was made of two Cylons and a woman married to a Cylon." " Bam!" "Big laugh, applause, applause, applause." "Are we done?" "Oh, no wait, I`m sorry, I forgot we haven't gone to the leg." "15 Billion people are dead and I`m supposed to give a frack about your leg?" "Who killed those 15 billion people, Kara?" " It wasn`t me." " No, it was your husband." "Are you enjoying yourself?" "Is this how you get your kicks these days?" "Oh, wait, I`m sorry." "I meant half-kicks." "What was Sam doing on Caprica?" "Before he.. so conveniently met you?" "You ever wonder?" "You think he maybe" "He... nuked a few cities." "Executed a few thousand prisoners?" "I`m just wondering." "But then again maybe you're Cylon too." "At least I`m not a limp." "One day, one day soon, it's gonna be a reckoning." "Kara." "And once again people are gonna have to answer for what they've done." "Is that a threat?" "You got it damn right that's a threat." "You know where to find me, Felix." "And in case you're wondering," "I will definitely hit a cripple." "Or anyone else." "So i guess a pitiful action is out of the question then?" "Somebody close that hatch." "Let's talk." "Attention!" "Order, please!" "The Vice President exercises his right to bring a motion forward." "In prison." "You start to confuse your hopes and dreams with reality." "You start to... believe that if you want something to happen, parole, the pardon.." "an appeal, ****, you start to believe... that it will happen." "You live... on wishes." "Ways things should be, instead of the way they are." "And all because you can't face reality." "The leaders of this fleet are succumbing to wishful thinking because they can't face reality." "And the reality is that..." "The Roslin-Adams administration has led us nowhere." "Earth... was a mirage." "A fantasy they dangled in front of us for four long years in order to maintain power." "A fantasy they dreamed up as a way to hold on and control the Gouverment over the democratic wishes of the population." "So now..." "What is our factless and dispirited leadership doing to solidify their position after failing us so miserably?" "Turning to the Cylons." "To Cylons." "For help." "Aren't the Cylons the reason we're out here in the first place?" "Aren't they the enemy?" "Or are they suddenly our friends if that keeps Roslin-Adama in power." "You have to make a motion, not a speech." "Thank you, Mr. Adama." "The chair moves that any decision allowing Cylons to board any ships of this fleet be made by the captain and the people of that ship and not by the Roslin-Adama administration." "All we need right now is unity." "This is a fleet wide issue." "We need to stand together." "It affects all of us." " Sagittaron, calls the question." " Tauron seconds." "Question was called and seconded." "All in favor?" "All opposed?" "Votes are 11 to 1." "Motion carries." "No Cylon will board a ship in this fleet without permission of its people." "Thank you." "Thank you." "What?" "Son of a bitch." "It's a big ship." " You done the whole round?" " Half." "It's more than i`m running a long time." "?" "You look flushed." "You look good." "Thank you." "You`re not supposed to look good." "You`re supposed to be in ****** with a tube in your arm." "I`ve changed my mind." "Like hell." "You never intended to go." "Caught." "Send me in a brig." "I can run there." "Cottle says you're experiencing a moment of euphoria as your body recovers from the toxicity of the g******" "So much of the Doctor-Patient confidentiality." "The President health is a security issue." "My resignation will be on your desk in an hour." "I`m not gonna hand the presidency over Tom Zarek." "In the current status we need to." "Stop it." "Listen, we need you." "Zarek got the Quorum in a ******" "This is going crazy." "The Government is spinning out of control." "Now... we need you." "Take your hands off me, Bill." "I played my role in this farce." ""A dying leader will guide the people to the..."" "bla bla bla." "Frakking... bla bla." "I've been there, I've done that, now what?" "Is there another role that I have to play... for the rest of my life?" "Do you remember what we said on New Caprica?" "How we talked about trying to live for today?" "Well, you better think about that, because... maybe tommorow really isn't coming." "Maybe today is all we have left." "And maybe..." "Just maybe..." "I've earned... the right to live a little before I die." "Haven't I?" "What do you think?" "Haven't I?" "Yes, you've earned it." "I have." "Well, guess what." "So have you." "Get out of my way." "What manner of forgiveness are you seeking?" "Is it that of disobedient children?" "Are you, are you children?" "Well, obviously, you're a child." "We have some children here, but to the rest of you... in your mind's eye, are you all just children who transgressed against your Fathers divine will?" "No, we've done nothing wrong." "Are you being punished for your multitude of sins?" " Are you?" " No." "This is really our lot?" "To have been led... by a Father... to the promised land..." "We should have to suffer." "Keep talking." "To Paradise." "Only to have..." "Paradise, cruelly smashed to bits before our very eyes." "Are these the actions of a father..." " Towards his children?" " No." "It's not right." "What have you done?" "What have you done to deserve this punishment?" "What sins have you commited?" "What dark thoughts have you haven't to condemn you... to condemn you... to wander through the universe, without hope?" "Without light." "So you have to ask yourselves what kind of a father abandons his own children..." " To despair and loneliness." " No one!" "Perhaps we are not the ones in need of forgivness." "Perhaps we're not." "Perhaps we have been wronged." "Perhaps it is God, who should come down here and ask for our forgivness!" "Am I right?" "Am I right?" "Then yell to God!" "What has he done for me, recently?" "Where has he been?" "It is a disease of these ship, to refute reality." "Am I right?" "Well, don't tell me... tell God." "Cottle told me." "I didn't know." "We need... we should talk." "Get your hands off!" " It's a goddamn uprising." " With all due respect, Colonel..." "I don't think we're there yet, but we do have a problem." "A problem?" "Ten of our ships refuse a direct order from the Flagship..." " Another 12 won't even respond to our hails." " They're not doing anything illegal." "The Quorum gave every ship the right to refuse any Cylon or Cylon technology aboard." "Jump drive upgrade is a military decision." "Outside the authority of the Quorum." "And you alone, get to make that determination?" "Sir?" "Yes, Mr. Gaeta." "I get to make that determination." " You have a problem with that?" " Admiral?" "We've recieved an emergency signal from our marine commander on board the Hitei Kan." "The crew of the Tylium ship has mutineered." "They killed a Cylon and two Marines." "Scramble the This is the XO." "Scramble the Mardet Alert Team and launch an assault Raptor." "This is the XO." "Scramble the Mardet Alert Team." "Mutiny aboard Hitei Kan." "Admiral, a ship is pulling out of formation and spinning it's FTL drive." "I wanna talk to whomever is in command of that ship, right now." "Hitei Kan, Hitei Kan, this is Galactica, please respond..." "This is a priority signal from Galactica Actual for the current commander of your ship." "Sir, their charges pulled up." " Where's my assault team?" " Raptors launching now." "Galactica, this is Athena." "We've cleared the bay and we are en route to Hidei Kan." "Hitei Kan, Hitei Kan, this is Galactica, please respond." " Mr. Hoshi!" " I'm trying Admiral, but they're not..." "Wait." "They're communicating with Colonial One, Sir." " The President?" " Can't be, she's aboard Galactica." "Let's hear it." "The Dradis..." "The Dradis shows a Raptor and Vipers... heading straight throwards us." "They'll be here any minute." "They are not allowed to board the ship without your permission." "Son of a bitch." "What should we do Mr. Vice President?" "Every citizen has the right to protect himself from oppresion." "Take whatever measures you think necesary." "She jumped!" "The Hitei Kan has jumped away, sir." "They're taking all our fuel with them." "You know, there are days that I really hate this job!" "Put me on scramble." "Athena." " Galactica Actual." " I read you, Actual." "You're ordered the board Colonial One." "Locate and arrest the Vice-President." " then bring him back to Galactica." " Roger that, Actual." "Arrest and return to Galactica." "What are my orders if he resists?" "In that case... the use of deadly force is authorized." "I don't know anything about being a father." "It sucks." "Except for the parts that don't." "Alright." "First lesson of parenting." "Sit." "If the kid's in hospital... you never leave him alone, no matter what... someone's always here." "You give first shift..." "Dad." "Wait." "How long do I sit here?" "Until I get back." "That'll be after I sober up." "Sworn statements." "Transcripts of wireless conversation, shipping records..." "All kinds of documents, really, compiled over the last year." "With the one theme." "The buying and the selling... the vice-President's office." "So this is a conversation about extortion." "No." "About law and order..." "But you can call it what you want." "You see, I believe that you would walk happily to the gallows." "Or languish in an cell for the rest of your life... if you can do it as a martyr to your cause." "But the idea of being... publicly humiliated as a corrupt politician with your hand in the tell..." "That would scare you." "Somehow I don't think that the legend and the myth, Tom Zarek, the political prisioner, and a man of conscience... can survive the airing of that much dirty laundry." "You really think the fleet is going to sit still, for a long and politically motivated trial, while you're making an alliance with the Cylons?" "I think without the Tylium ship we're not going anywhere." "We're gonna sit here for a long time." "At least you won't be bored." "You think I know where the Tylium ship is?" " Yes, I do." " Why?" "Because I know that you do." "Read the file." "Some juicy stuff." "Make a great story for the press." "Murder and extortion." "You know what the difference is between you and I, Admiral?" "You wear that uniform... and I don't." "You can cool your heels here until I check these out." "I wouldn't eat the food." " Here's your Tylium ship." " Well, that was fast." "How did you do it?" "I appealed to his intellect." " Should I send him to medic?" " No, he's fine." "Well, you're not." "Maybe you should see a medic." "You look like hell." "I feel like it too, I need to rest." "Oh, you earned it." "Let me know when they find the Tylium ship." "I'll be with the President." "You got it." "Oh." "Give this to Hoshi." "Tell him to file it." "Laundry reports?" "Hitei Kan, this is Athena." "Stand by to be boarded." "Any resistance will be met with force." "This is your only warning." "Understood." "Every revolution... begins with one small act of courage." "But I hope you know how serious this is." "I hope you understand that this will have consequences." "Deadly consequences." "For a lot of people." "I thought about the consequences." "And I'm ready for them." "We all are." "How many is "we"?" "Enough." "But once it starts, we'll get more support." "People know something has to be done of it." "The world is frakked, it's upside down." "And somebody's gotta turn it's right side up." "Are you that man?" "I'm one of them." "But I need... a partner." "You've got one." "That's good..." "Take it from here, Saul." "See you in the morning." "They've found the Tylium ship." "Do you care?" "Neither do I."
