"Those of you who just came back from six-day planet hunts will get two days local duty before going out again." "Remember, the first one who sights a habitable rock will get this fine oral hygiene product." "It is the last tube of Tauron toothpaste in the universe." "Gods know most of you need it." "STARBUCK:" "Our mission is the same this week as it was the week before that." "And the week before that." "STARBUCK:" "Planet-hunters, make sure to draw long-duration provisions." "If those clapped-out FTLs go down when you're out there, you're gonna get mighty hungry waiting for the SAR birds to find you." "As you know, the mutiny has thinned our ranks." "We cannot give all you Raptor jocks back-seaters." "Savor this alone time." "But do not whack too much." "We need you to conserve your O2." "STARBUCK:" "Remember to savor your alone time." "Wank as little as possible." "Conserve your O2." "Planet search assignments are on the duty board." "Be advised the repairs to Galactica will continue to cause sporadic power outages." "Six has the color assignments and your recognition signals." "Engines start at 071 0." "Good hunting." "So, the stop-drilling and the shoring compound will buy the Galactica a few more jumps, but not many." "How many?" "TYROL:" "lmpossible to say." "Till the hull caves in." "But we're not ready to give up on the old girl just yet." "APOLLO:" "Well, if there's nothing else." "Sonia, I wanna congratulate you on your election." "I look forward to seeing you taking your seat in the Quorum of ships' captains next week." "Thank you." "But you should know something." "When we convene, I intend to formally request that the Eight you're holding in Galactica's brig be returned to us." "Boomer?" "Yes." "Sharon Valerii." "She put two holes in me." "I'm afraid I didn't word that right." "We don't want Boomer set free." "We want to try Boomer for treason." "Sharon Valerii sided with Cavil in the Cylon Civil War, which killed thousands of our comrades." "APOLLO:" "And if she's convicted?" "Before the civil war, resurrection made capital punishment pointless." "But now that we're all mortal..." "You want to kill her."

"And they haven't changed in weeks." "And there's nothing to indicate that he's having any kind of conscious thought." "ATHENA:" "Well, maybe his brain is rebooting, reorganizing as it heals." "COTTLE:" "The last thing we need is you jerking our chains with a lot of quack ideas." "So why don't you take them someplace else?" "ATHENA:" "What if we could link him to the data stream like our hybrids?" "His eyes were closed last time." "COTTLE:" "Well, that's not unusual in a coma." "Doesn't mean anything." "You're gonna have to come to grips with that." "(breathing DEEPLY)" "And how am I supposed to do that?" "COTTLE:" "You need to get on with your life." "If there's any change, you'll be the first one to know." "(piano playing)" "Gods damn it, do you have to continue to play the same lame-ass song?" "Give it a rest." "I'm not playing the same lame-ass song, I'm composing it." "(LAUGHS) Been at it for four days now." "It's hell." "So then quit." "What's the point?" "Point?" "The point is to bring a little grace and beauty to an otherwise ugly and brutal existence." "Oh, give me a frakking break." "is that what you were doing when the Cylons attacked the 1 2 Colonies?" "Did your music stop one missile?" "(piano playing)" "Pretty cynical point of view." "Something happened to you." "Yeah." "I wonder what it could be?" "RAFFERTY:" "Okay." "Closing time." "Drink up and let's go, folks." "(CLEARS THROAT) I have an observation for you." "You wanna be an immortal composer, you better learn how to play that thing first."

"TYROL:" "How many of us ended up with the people we really wanted to be with?" "Got stuck with the best of limited options." "And why?"

"They're very good stars." "Thank you." "(LAUGHS)" "HELO:" "Recognize any of this?" "That's my stuff." "We all thought you were dead." "Yeah, the pilots auctioned it off." "I know." "It took me a while, but I managed to buy, beg and steal them back." "That for me?" "Thank you." "Hey." "What about the rest?" "Keep it." "(DOOR opening)" "Thank God." "I don't know why I'm here." "You know, when I shot the old man..." "The things that you said to me." "The way that you looked at me..." "I thought New Caprica was a way to set things right." "You can't force people to love you at the point of a gun." "I know that now." "But at the time I felt betrayed." "So I wanted to forget you." "And hate you." "Didn't work." "(breathing DEEPLY)" "I've thought about you every day since that moment I died in your arms." "(sniffing)" "Me, too." "If I had known back then what I am... (electricity buzzing)" "I know." "Galen, it's okay." "Really." "I mean, the important thing is that we both know who we are now." "Let's make the most with the time that we have left." "Please." "(BOOMER humming)" "What the hell is this?" "Our house in Picon." "It's the one that we planned to build when we mustered out." "Stop." "Stop." "Stop this." "I'm sorry."

"I didn't say that." "You were savagely honest with me the other night." "(sighs) Why be diplomatic now?" "I'm not being diplomatic, you over-sensitive jackass." "I said I liked it." "Really?" "Why?" "(CLEARS THROAT) Um..." "Hard to put into words." "Made me think of someone chasing after a car." "Not exactly what I was going for." "I was trying to convey a sense of loss." "(stammering) That's what I meant." "It's like losing someone that you care about." "Their car pulls away." "You chase them." "But they're going too fast." "(PEOPLE chattering)" "So that's it." "We're just gonna sit on our hands?" "Let our people kill her for vengeance?" "What do you expect us to do?" "Issue a formal decree of clemency?" "We can't interfere." "ELLEN:" "We can't set ourselves up as Gods." "The rebels are the aggrieved parties." "They have every right to determine Valerii's punishment." "Can't." "Can't." "Can't!" "Boomer saved your life." "You wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for her." "And I will testify to that at her trial." "But I won't try to stop it." "We have to let justice run its course." "Then they will kill her." "Sure as hell." "We're all in hell." "Thanks for your input, Colonel." "He just lost his child, for God's sake." "You leave him be." "How long have you been going there?" "A while." "Became my secret retreat." "A way of feeling close to you." "(LAUGHS) Do you remember how we obsessed over every little detail?" "That was you obsessing, I was just listening." "Really?" "How many floor plans did you draw?" "That's being thorough." "(CHUCKLES) Oh." "We never had a chance to build our house, so I built it in my head." "And I wanted so much to share it with you." "Are you sure?" "I don't want to put you through any..." "(TYROL GASPS)" "(LAUGHS)" "(laughing)" "(BOTH laughing)" "slick:" "Okay." "We nailed the first movement." "(STARBUCK CHUCKLES)" "Now, what about the second?" "(LAUGHS) I got nothing." "(LAUGHS) lt's okay. lt's just the next hurdle." "The key is to, you know, not panic." "Trust yourself, something's gonna come." "It's part of the process." "is part of the process also stealing from other composers?" "That piece you're riffing off of, it's Nomion's 3rd Sonata, Second Movement." "I mean, it's what it sounded like, anyway." "No, you're dead on the money." "It's pronounced Nomion." "Anyway, he's my touchstone." "Whenever I come up dry, I look to him for inspiration." "And for somebody who hates music so much, you know an awful lot about it." "My dad used to play." "Ah !" "So what's the story?" "He forced you to learn?" "And he was such a perfectionist, you grew to hate it?" "No." "No, I loved it, actually." "He used to sit me next to him on the bench when he played." "(breathing DEEPLY)" "Smell of tobacco on his breath." "He taught me a few songs." "I used to try so hard to get them right." "Not because I was afraid he'd get angry, but because I knew he'd be so proud." "(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)" "There was this one song that he taught me." "It made me feel happy and sad all at the same time." "The best ones do." "(piano playing)" "(GASPS)" "STARBUCK:" "How is it possible that I found my body and I'm still here?" "I mean, what am I?" "A ghost?" "A demon?" "You're asking the wrong guy." "I'm just a piano player." "When I was leading the Fleet to Earth, everything seemed so clear." "For the first time in my life." "I knew what I was doing and why I was here." "Now, I'm just adrift again." "Listen." "It may feel like hell." "But sometimes lost is where you need to be." "Just because you don't know your direction, doesn't mean you don't have one." "TYROL:" "Madam President." "I'm asking you as a personal favor to me, don't sign that." "Don't do that, Chief." "Personal feelings are what Sharon Valerii preys upon." "You know that." "Better than any of us." "You need to clear your head." "You don't have to kill her." "Leave her in the brig." "No." "Uh-uh." "She is a danger in the brig, out of the brig." "Danger to us." "Danger to our Cylon allies." "This can't be the last option, Madam." "Please." "Madam President, please." "(sighs)" "We're done here." "Chief." "You're dismissed." "(electricity buzzing)" "MAN:" "Somebody check their box." "MAN:" "Hey!" "(THUDDlNG)" "(piano music playing)" "What?" "What?" "That was good." "It's crap." "Well, maybe you need to take a break." "Get yourself laid or something." "(LAUGHS) I dissipate the tension." "is that why she left you?" "It's a pretty deep grove on your finger." "Had to have been there for a while." "Too long." "She didn't leave me." "I left her." "Why?" "She wanted me to quit playing the piano." "You left her for that?" "I was playing steady gigs." "Making decent money." "Then we had a kid." "She said it wasn't enough." "Said I had to get a real job." "I told her I might as well cut my heart out." "My Gods, you're just like my father." "You start a family, the going gets tough, you ditch them?" "Did you ever stop thinking about yourself long enough to consider what you did to your kid?" "WALLACE:" "Oh, you got it." "Thanks, Chief." "Every time the Godsdamn power goes out we gotta go down and check the locks." "Prisoner still secured." "She slept right through it." "You gonna stay a while?" "Word is they're shipping her out tomorrow." "No. I said all I needed to say." "(PEOPLE chattering)" "So maybe what your old man did was wrong." "But he still left you with something." "He taught you how to play the piano." "I never played after he left." "What about that song?" "That song he taught you." "The one that makes you happy and sad at the same time." "Play that for me." "I don't frakking remember it." "And even if I did, I wouldn't." "That son of a bitch never came back." "He never called." "He never wrote." "So you quit playing to punish him?" "Come on, play me a song." "It won't hurt." "Come on." "Come on." "I'll show you." "It's easy." "Come on." "Don't make me hurt you." "There we go." "That goes there." "Go ahead." "(sniffing) lt's okay." "It's okay." "You play." "Please." "I'll play. I'll play if you play." "Great." "I hope you're here to fix the frakking shower." "Boomer?" "(GRUNTlNG)" "Athena." "Helo." "Hey. I didn't think..." "You didn't think I'd let you go on a six-day mission in deep space without a proper goodbye, did you?" "(laughing)" "Next flight team's not suiting up for another 20." "(MOANlNG)" "You smell good." "Yeah, I made a trade for some real soap." "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa." "Taste as good as it smells?" "(LAUGHS)" "Hey, something wrong?" "Cottle was right." "I never should have insisted on seeing him." "His eyes were open." "I wasn't ready for that." "The little guy was looking right at me." "(MOANlNG)" "It's all right." "I think you almost had it." "(CLEARS THROAT)" "Something's missing." "(piano playing)" "Well, it's the left hand." "Listen, I'll play down here. I think I know..." "I think I know what you're doing now." "Hang on." "(slick humming)" "Holy crap." "slick:" "Hey." "Play the bottom, okay?" "Just come in when you think you're ready." "Okay?" "Hmm." "BOOMER:" "Hey, baby." "Hi." "Oh !" "Guess what Mommy brought you?"
