"Don't get into a battle that you don't wanna play." "That beeing said, use your own judgment." "This is your command." "Nothing to the right of me, nothing to the left of me."

"Another seventeen ships too badly damaged to be repaired." "What else?" "Sir, we've tried to keep a lid on what we learned from com traffic before it stopped." "But rumors keep leaking out." " We need facts, not supposition." " I agree." "We're four, maybe five, plotted jumps back to the colonies." "I don't imagine you wanna risk the whole ship for a recon run, right?" "Send two Raptors, tell them not to engage" " the enemy." "I want information only." " Yes, Sir." "Ready to reboot nav and defense computer systems." "Stand by." "Lieutenant." "Admiral." "The helms, weapons and FTL computer are back on line and I think I know how the Cylons took down our defence grid." "These lines of code in the new navigation program were about to upload."

"I know there have been a lot of rumors going around about the destruction that's been visited on our homeworlds by the Cylons." "I would like to tell you that they're exaggeration but in fact, they don't even come close to convey the horror that's just been unleashed among us." "The facts are... that our colonies have been destroyed," "our cities have been nuked, and our fleet's gone too." "So far, there are no indications of any other survivors." "I imagine you're all asking yourselves the same question I am." "What do we do, now?" "Do we run?" "Do we hide?" "I think those are the easy choices." "A philosopher once said:" ""When face with untenable alternatives, you should consider your imperative."" "Look around you." "Our imperative is right here." "In our bulkheads, in our planes, in our guns, and in ourselves." "War is our imperative." "And if right now, victory seems like an impossibility, then there is something else to reach for." "Revenge." "Payback." "And so, we will fight." "Because in the end, it's the only alternative our enemies have left us." "I say let's make these murdering things understand that as long as this crew and this ship survive that this war that they started will not be over." "Thank you." "So say we all." "So say we all."

" Hello." "Gentlemen, I'd like you to meet Miss Gina Inviere." "Miss Inviere and Lieutenant Shaw are working very closely upgrading our systems and before that, she was supervising our retrofit and I must say she's proven herself invaluable in both capacities." "Thank you." "You certainly set a beautiful table." "Thank you." "Everyone, please have a seat." "Please..." "I think it's quite important for our ship's officers to get together every once in a while." "Share some food, some wine, some good conversation." "Ups moral." "Not to mention it's the only time we get to park our butts on a chair." "Now that you're all here, I would like to take a moment to say a few words." "In all seriousness," "I said some things before, in the heat of emotion." "Things that I thought this crew needed to hear." "But I don't want any of you for one moment to think that I would ever risk lives or resources in some mad quest for revenge." "My plan is to wage an all-out classic guerilla war campaign." "I want to find their weak links and I want to hit them hard." "As they say, the best defense is a good offense." "Well, then here's to a good offense and to kicking some cylon ass!" "Almost done here."

"You can speak to the Admiral about raising your security clearance." "Yeah, I thought we were being so discrete." "Guess that's hard when you truly care for someone." "Program's uploaded." "I will need to input your code." "Alpha one niner six gamma one." "To satisfy your curiosity, we met a few months ago when I presented the plans for the retrofit." "We spent a lot of time together working on the details and I guess one thing led to the other." "You seem so surprised." "It's just that Cain seems so self-sufficient." "She has needs, just like the rest of us." "No one can survive entirely on her own." "Trust me, Lieutenant." "In the end, we're all just human." "What about "99 bottles of Ambrosia"."

"Where do these guys come from?" "Starbuck, actual." "You and Showboat double time back to the nest." "On our way, Pegasus, I don't like these odds." "Showboat, stay with me." "Defensive batteries, selective fire only, watch out for our people." "Prep a jump as soon as we recover our birds." "Aye, sir." "These ships..." "I can almost see 'em." "There's something weird about them." "Sir, shouldn't we launch alert Vipers and engage?" "That's not why we are here, Major." "Sir, wh..." "We spot our missing ship, we'll go after her." "Otherwise, we jump out of here, we report back to Galactica." "Pegasus, Starbuck." "We got a kind of a problem with our new friends." "They don't want to say goodbye." "Sir," "FTL crew reports power failure in main navigation computer." "You got to be kidding me." "Let's go on emergency backup." "We need those jump coordinates." "They're all over us." "We can't break free." "Ensign, direct all batteries to commit full load of fire, close range." "Now, Ensign." " What the frak?" " We're inside their firing solution." "You're frakking kidding!"

"No, but it'll make you feel better." "Frak!" "Son of a bitch." "For frak sakes, it's like she was trying to get us killed." "Look, Major Shaw has the authority to take any action she feels necessary" " to protect this ship." " She's a loose cannon." "And she's also the XO." "And frankly, ordering that barrage probably saved your skin." "Forgive me, if I don't say "thanks"." " Come on, Kara!" "Just..." " Don't!" "You wanna tell me what the hell you were thinking?" "It was a nice bit of flying, Captain." "But I'd think twice{\Uncut version:" "It was a nice bit of flying out there, Captain." "But I'd think twice}" " about questioning my tactical orders."

"There's a lot of jamming going on out there." "But I'm reading 15 full squadrons of raiders, Sir." "They must have jumped in right after we launched our fighters." "This isn't a com relay." "This is a staging ground." "We call our vipers, Sir?" "Two minutes to contact." "Admiral, the Cylons knew we were coming." "We have to recover the Vipers and jump out of here while we still can."

"We are hugely outnumbered." "And now, our own weapon's grid won't respond." "What more proof do we need that this is a trap?" "Or more reason to launch everything we've got." "This is exactly what you said we wouldn't do." "Even if we succeed, is this really worth the lives the plan would cost?" "Mister Belzen, are you refusing to carry out my orders?" "Sir, I cannot in good conscience obey them." "Mr Belzen, give me your side arm." " Sir?" " I said: "Give me your side arm."" "Now!" "Gods!" "Colonel Fisk!" "You're now my XO."

"Step away from the Admiral." " Lieutenant?" " I said: "Step away from the Admiral."" "Now!" "You two." "Take her into custody." "Belay that." "Lt, what the hell is going on?" "She was helping us with our weapons grid.{\Uncut version:" "She was just helping us get control of our weapons grid.}" "No she wasn't, Sir." "She's a cylon spy that looks like us."

" Yes, Sir." "Act like officers, Gods damn it!" "You've got everybody watching you on this deck." "Where the hell did they come from?" "It's been a long time since I seen one of these outside a museum." "And you say the entire fleet jumped in?" "They came out of nowhere." "Why would the Cylons resurrect a machine that by their standards is hopelessly obsolete?" "Maybe they didn't resurrect it." "Maybe they're out here all along." "Is there something you wanna tell us?" "There are references in our databases, to a force of centurions, called Guardians." "Early models like this, that somehow escaped being scrapped." "What do this Guardians guard?" "A hybrid." "An entity that represents the first step in our evolution from pure machines to organic beings." "From them, to us." "A cylon missing link." "No, more like an evolutionary dead end." "There were other hybrids created to control our baseships before the experiment was abandoned, but... this one was the first." "And... some think it's still alive." "Protected by these Guardians." "And that it's still somehow seeking its own way to evolve." "The last operation of the war," "Galactica was part of a task force that destroyed a cylon base." "I was on that mission." "The Cylons was supposedly building a superweapon." "All this has happened before." "And will happen again." "Is someone in there?" "Help." "Help us, they left us here." "Don't leave us here, please." "I'm gonna get you out of here." "We're civilians." "We're traders, from Gemenon." "We..." "They jumped our convoy." "They destroyed our escort." "They took us all prisoners." "There were 50 of us but they've been taking us away, one by one." "We could hear the others screaming." "We didn't know what happened to them." "Please you gotta get us all out of here." "I'm trying." "The door must be welded shut." " What the hell is happening?" " I don't know." "Looks like a quake." "The place is starting to come apart." "I got it!" "Still stuck." "I can't open it any wider." "You gotta go." "You gotta go get help." "I stay here." "I stay here with you." "No, you can't do it by yourself." "Just go!" "Tell what happened to us." "Our ship was the Diana." "From Gemenon, all right?" "Just tell them." "If you stay here, you'll be trapped like us." "Go!" "Go!" "Save yourself." "Go!" "Galactica, Husker." "Galactica, this is Husker." "Do you copy?" "Husker, roger that." "Report status." "I crashed on the surface." "They were making something down here." "Experimenting on people to do it." "And now they're getting away with whatever they've built." "Husker, the war is over!" "What?" "Galactica repeat!" "The war is over." "An armistice was just signed." "Activate your beacon, we'll send you the SAR bird." "Husker, respond." "They escaped with it." "Right before they signed the armistice." "If this hybrid still exists, then it's captured some of our people." "I don't want to think about it." "Baltar and Tyrol were able to pull the Raider's computer and download the ship's navigation." "Then extrapolate the possible location for a base." "It's more likely a baseship." "That's where you'll find our Raptor crew." "It's two, maybe three jumps from where you were attacked." "I was just telling the commander that we can't afford to commit both battlestars." "That's just why I'm temporarily transfering my flag to Pegasus." " You're going along?" " You're still in command." "Let's just say I have a personal stake in this mission." "A mission based on a cylon legend." "It's not a legend, son." "I was in the place where they made that thing." "I saw what they did to make it." "We're not gonna let this happen again." "Not to our own people." "I'll have my XO start preparing an attack plan." "I'm afraid that brings us to another matter." "Commander." "Misdirection is the key." "Pegasus jumps right into the hornet's nest." "They swarm us with their Raiders." "We let them think they've taken out our FTL before moving off at sublight speed, drawing them away." "That's when my strike team jumps in." "It's a hell of a risky plan, but I guess you know that." "Just remember it's search and rescue." "Get aboard, find our people, set your nuke, then get back in one peace." " Who's piloting the Raptor?" " Captain Thrace." "No other pilot I can trust to pull this off." "Well, I guess the question is whether I can trust you." "The President believes that under admiral Cain you were involved in an incident aboard a civilian transport, called Scylla." "An incident in which ten people were executed." "It is true?" "I said, is it true?" "I was there." "Guessing that's enough to indict me." "Why didn't you tell me?" "You said you wanted to send a message to this ship's crew, about respecting Cain's legacy." "I am Cain's legacy." "I'm alive because of the choices she made." "So is everyone else on this ship." "Tell you something else?" "Cain wouldn't have blinked twice at this plan." "She knew that you don't win battles, never mind morals, without risking lives." "Are you finished?" "Yes, Sir." "If you'd like my resignation, you can have it." "It'd be easier, wouldn't it?" "Then you can go back to pealing potatoes, wallowing in self pity, 'cause poor Kendra Shaw is the only officer in the fleet who've had to make a hard call." "Well it's not gonna fly, Major." "Not while I'm in command." "The plan's risky, but right now, you're the only game in town." "So, complete your mission, Major." "Your plan's approved." "Petrius, this is Adriatic  got another load of salt wasting in our cargo holes." "Petrius, this is Adriatic." "Another load  and we're back with Gaius Baltar." "Doctor, a lot of people once thought of Pegasus as the answer to our prayer." "Were they wrong?" "Final casualty report lists 816 dead, 121 injured." "32 Vipers destroyed, 61 badly damaged." "The acting chief says we don't have enough parts to repair them all." "It's a rather high price for a tactically insignificant victory." "I wouldn't say it's insignificant, Sir." "I'd say we've put the enemy on notice." "The price we paid is my fault." "How do you figure that, Lt?" "Well I gave her... it my access codes." "It must have used them to override our security lockouts." "No, you gave it something far more important than that." "You gave it your trust, as did I. But this thing really knows how to manipulate human emotions, preys on them." "Lieutenant Thorne," "I want you to interrogate our cylon prisoner." "Find out everything it knows." "And since it's so adept at mimicking human feeling," "I'm assuming that its software is vulnerable to them as well, so..." "Pain, yes, of course." "Degradation, fear," "shame."

"Admiral Cain to CIC." "Lieutenant, come with me." "Colonel, sitrep." "We just detected a fleet of ships broadcasting colonial IFF signature." "Sir, they're civilians." "A civilian fleet." "15 ships, Sir." "The CAP has gone ahead to intercept." "Lieutenant, I want you to contact those ships' captains." "Ask them to forward their crew and passenger manifest along with their ships' schematics and inventory of any weapons or spare parts." "Yes, Sir." "Colonel, I want you to assemble teams of engineers and marines and have them board each of those ships." "Sir, are we..." "We're gonna take everything we need from those ships." "And once they'll realize our intent, it's bound to be resistance." "So we need to act quickly and decisively." "Colonel, if you have a problem with any of this, I need to hear it now." "No." "Get to work." "Permission to come aboard?" "Permission granted." "Welcome." "We prayed for this miracle." "The last time the Cylons found us, we lost 4 ships but now, thank the Gods, you've found us." "Mr. Laird, admiral Cain ordered me to give you this." " What is it?" " It's a list of materials and passengers we need transfer to the Pegasus." "Effective immediately." "Your name is on the list." "My name?" "Wait." "You want to take our FTL drives." "We'll be helpless." "As I said, we're adding some of your people to our crew." "So... you're gonna decide just like that who lives and who dies?" "We make whatever accommodations we can, but, you have to understand." "We're at war." "Military need must take priority." "I don't understand." "They're... they're gonna take what they want and leave us to fend for ourselves." "I can't do that." " I can't do it." " No." "Listen!" "All of you!" "We have orders to transfer the crewmen, and the equipment on that list, to Pegasus." "We have no wish to harm anyone, but we will use force if necessary." "No." "You can't do that." "You can't do that." " Get them back!" " You're here to help us." "You can't do that!" "Ship to ship call from colonel Fisk." "What's going on, Colonel?" "We're already behind schedule." "Sir, they're denying us access to the rest of the ship." "We're not dealing with just individuals, Sir." "We have full families here." "Then tell them you'll shoot the families of any selectee who doesn't comply." "Sir, did I hear you correctly?" " You don't seriously mean that we..." " Just get it done, Colonel." "Corporal." "Get these people on the deck" " and get them lined up." " Yes, Sir." "We have orders... to shoot the families of any selectee who refuses to return with us." "We will carry out this order." "Unless, those individuals are brought forward, now!" " You're here to protect us!" " I repeat." "We will carry out this order!" "We will shoot these people." "What are we doing, Sir?" "Sir?" "Colonel Fisk, to Pegasus." "Colonel Fisk, to Pegasus." "It's over." "The whole fleet has word of what happened here." "There won't be any more resistance." "Colonial 1 to Raptor 3-5-9, clear for docking approach." "Colonial 1 to Raptor 3-5-9, clear for docking approach." "Galactica to Greenleaf shuttle, you are clear for landing." "Checker's red." "Speed to..." "So the XO is human after all." "I used to do that myself." "Scrum through the wireless band, reminds you you're not alone out here." "Got any more?" "More of what?" "What of you're about to stick in your neck." "You don't miss much, do you?" "Whatever floats your boat, right?" "I came down here looking for a loose bottle, you came down here for..." "Guess we both just try to take the edge off, right?" "Guess so." "That's good." "Cause I'd hate to think that Lee's new XO can't handle the pressure." "Maybe you want to get busted back to peeling potatoes." "I hate to think that Lee's favorite pilot wants to find herself scrubbing floors for pilfering ships stores." "You keep my secret, Sir?" "I'll keep yours." "Unconfirmed reports continue to attribute President Roslin's recent miraculous recovery from..." "I've seen officers happier about a promotion." "I am happy, Sir, I am." "I guess I just don't know what I've done to deserve it." "Don't, Captain." "Don't do it." "Don't look back." "Sometimes, we have to leave people behind, so that we can go on." "So that we can continue to fight." "Sometimes, we have to do things" "that we never thought we were capable of," "if only to show the enemy our will." "Yesterday, you showed me that you were capable of setting aside your fear, setting aside your hesitation," "and even your revulsion every natural inhibition that during battle can mean the difference between life and death." "When you can be this for as long as you have to be," "then you're a razor." "This war is forcing us all to become razors because if we don't, we don't survive." "And then we don't have the luxury of becoming simply human again." "Do you understand me?" "Good." "Well done." "Congratulations, Captain." "President Roslin's recent executive order outlawing abortion led to a demonstration..." "Port side hull breaches." "Deck 4, fringes 12 to 14." "Damage control crews are sealing them off now." "I'd say that's enough of that." "Get the FTL offline." "Bring her around." "Heading..." " 1-6-1, carom 0." " Sir." "They're pursuing, Sir." "Let's hope they keep it up." "Looks like they bought it." "Now, let's go get our Raptor crew." "Maybe this will be easier than we thought." "Guess again, two bandits inbound." "Show time, people." "Ready?" "Go, go, go!" "Enemy target destroyed." "All wings regroup and continue pursuit of Battlestar Pegasus." "Aye, your Command." "Landing report." "Red squad all accounted for." "Speak for yourself, sarge." "I'm still counting fingers and toes." "Knock it off, Hudson." "Red squad, form up on me." "Any ground when our playing comes together?" "Red squad, on my mark." "Fire thrusters." "Red 1, Pegasus." "Red 1, this is Pegasus actual." "Report mission and team status." "We're in, we were able to access an airlock on one of the radio alarms." "Proceeding toward the core, no contact, no casualties." "Stay frosty, kiddies." "No telling how many of those toasters they left watching the house." "Stop your yap, Hudson." "Maybe we won't have to find out." "DaSilva, what do you read on thermals?" "{\Uncut version:" "DaSilva, what do you read on that thermos?" "}" "One heat source." "Could be biological." "Near the core, but that's all." "Wait." "I'm picking up three or more signatures." "Two of them a pretty weak but they're coming from about 30 meters ahead." "Could be our people." "Danny, take point." " Holy frak." " Get them out of there, go!" "Help us." "Get them out of here." "Come on!" "Cylons!" "Everybody out, now!" "Let's go!" "Come on!" "Man down!" "They got DaSilva!" "No!" "Pegasus, Red 2." "Come in, Pegasus." "Copy, Red 2 but your signal is weak." "Recovered two civilians." "One dead, two wounded." "Including the XO." "We're pinned down, taking heavy fire." "Mission out, come down forward." "Pegasus, Red 2." "Come in, Pegasus." "Pegasus." "Frak." "Captain!" "Sitrep!" "We just lost communications." " Cylons must be jamming." " What about the nuke?" "How's that detonator coming, Mathias?" "Detonator's fried." "Get it working." "You want to tell me what the hell that was with DaSilva?" "I'll not allow them taking any more prisoners, Captain." " You saw what they were doing in there." " Yes, I saw it." "Keep trying to resume communications with Red 2." "Yes, Sir." "Mr. Hoshi." "Order nuclear ship-to-ship missile into launch tube 3." "Aye, Sir." "This is a nuclear mission order." "Load ship-to-ship missile into launch tube 3." " What are you doing?" " They've been compromised." "We can't regain communications." "We have to assume that the team's been lost." "We have to give them a chance." "Commander Adama?" " Open launch tube doors." " Open launch tube doors." "Major." "Watch those quarters, Hudson." "Pegasus, Red 2." "Come in." "Destroying that ship with people on board is our last resort." "Like it or not, Admiral, this is no longer a rescue mission." "Gods only know what will happen to our people if they're captured." "I know what'll happen." "I was there." "Nukes are loaded, Commander." "Release of nuclear weapons is authorized." "Disable launch and warhead safeties." "Mr. Hoshi, take your launch key." " Put it in the firing lock." " Aye, Sir." "Belay that order." "I'm not prepared to sacrifice any lives." "Not yet." " And if you're wrong?" " Then I'll have to live with it." "You said it yourself, Admiral." "That thing maybe headed toward Earth." "If it jumps away, then we'll lose our only hope of taking it out." "Sir, jamming's clearing." "Receiving a transmission from Red 2." " Put it through on speakers." " Aye, Sir." "Launch evac Raptor." "Pegasus, this is Red 2." "Come in." "Pegasus, this is Red 2." "Come in." "Yes." "Red 2, this is Pegasus actual." "Starbuck, report." "Still pinned down but holding on." "Tell me there's a ride waiting for us." "On their way, Red 2." "The Raiders've broken off their attack." "They'll be headed to you any second now.{\Uncut version:" "The Raiders've broken off their attack." "They'll be headed toward your coordinate any second now.}" "Roger that." "We'll be running out of time." "Evac Raptor's on its way." "They want us to set the nuke and get the hell out." "That's gonna be a problem." "Remote detonator's definitely shot." " Can you rig a manual trigger?" " Probably." "Then do it." "Do it?" " What the hell are you talking about?" " We are completing this mission." "Am I clear, soldier?" "Yes, Sir." "Red team, Pegasus." "Evac ETA two minutes." "This is Red 2, give me actual." "Red 2, this is actual." "What's taking you so long?" "They're gonna be on you any second." "Our nuke's remote detonator is still fried." "We're gonna have to cook it off by hand." "Red 1 is still down for the count." "Witch doesn't give us many options." "What are your orders, Sir?" "We still got a missile in the tube." "If that evac bird gets them off, we could still fire this thing off.{\Uncut version:" "If that evac bird gets them off that ship, we could still fire this thing off.}" " Mr. Hoshi." " The Raiders are in their air defense position." "You launch anything, they gonna intercept it." "Then we have to leave someone behind, arm the warhead manually." "That's right." "This is your team, son." "You make the call." "Red 2, this is Pegasus actual." "Get the XO, get your men and get to the evac coordinates." "Secure your men, and detonate the warhead using the manual trigger." "Complete your mission, Captain." "Understood." " Sergeant!" "Get ready to move out." " Yes, Sir." "All right, now get on your feet, and I'll get you out of here." "Come on everybody move, it's time, let's go!" "Get your suits on." "Come on, go, go, go!" "You too, Major." "Let's get..." "You too, Captain." "Leave the nuke, if you don't mind." "What the frak are you doing?" "Completing the mission." "Take it." "I don't need it anymore." "Major." "I just gave you an order, soldier." "Unless you wanna die," "I suggest you obey it." "Go." "Why?" "You know damn well why." "Put on your suit, you're about to run out of air." "It's been an honor, Captain." "All this has happened before and will happen again." "Come in, Major." "I've been waiting for you for a long time." "You're what all this is about, aren't you?" "What are you?" "What am I?" "A man." "Or am I a machine?" "Our children will live by our God." "Are you... a god?" "I have seen things, your life, Kendra Shaw, the things you've done... the things you felt you had to do... all leading to this moment." "You wish to be forgiven, my child." "I repeat!" "We will carry out this order!" "We will shoot these people!" "What are we doing, Sir?" "Sir?" "Do you wish to be forgiven?" " Yes." " Then, come closer." "There's something I have to tell you." "Come." "Kara Thrace will lead the human race to its end." " What?" " She is the herald of the Apocalypse." "The harbinger of death." "They must not follow her." "Pegasus, evac Raptor inbound." "Extraction complete." "Cleared Baseship." "Raptor is on its way back, Sir." "They have Starbuck aboard." "Major Shaw stayed behind." "Starbuck?" "Actual." "This is Red 1." "Come in." " Red 1, this is Pegasus Actual." "Report." " Commander?" "I gotta warn you." "It's Captain Thrace." " Red 1, report!" " They're jamming us again, Sir." " Red 1, this is Actual, come in!" " We lost her." "Actual." "Come in." "Actual." "As my own existence comes to a close, only to begin a new, in ways... uncertain." "You're scared, aren't you, mother-frakker?" "You should be." "All this has happened before." "And will happen again." "Again." "You wanted to see me, Admiral." "Thank you for coming in." "Starbuck was here a little earlier." "She's recommended major Shaw for a posthumous commendation." "She wasn't looking for medals." "No, she wasn't." "But I've been going through Cain's logs, and from a tactical perspective, it's hard to find a fault in anything that she did, or that Kendra did." "They butchered innocent civilians, Dad." "Come on." "How can you ignore that?" "I know that I didn't have to face any of the situations that she did." "I had the President in my face, arguing for the survival of the civilian fleet," "I had colonel Tigh to keep me honest, balancing my morality and my tactics, and I had you." "Now... you don't have any children, so you might not understand this, but you see yourself reflected in their eyes." "And there are some things that I thought of doing, with this fleet." "But I stopped myself because I knew that I'd have to face you the following day." "If you hadn't been in CIC," "I would have ordered that strike." "Kara would be dead, so would the rest of the team." "You did nothing wrong, neither did I." "We both made decisions that we had to, to accomplish our missions." "Yeah." "Cain." "Kendra." "Were they wrong?" "And if I believed in the Gods," "I'd say they'll be judged by a high power." "But since you don't believe..." "Then history will have to make its judgments." "And since history's first draft will be written in our logs..." "Well, I guess I've got some writing to do." "You'll write that commendation." "Yeah, I will." "Not a lot to show for a life, huh?" "I guess not." "Do you have any idea why she did it?" "Maybe she thought she had a lot to answer for." "Maybe she had it coming..." "We've all got it coming." "You might as well hear this from me." "I've asked to be reassigned to Galactica." "Any reason?" "You might say that I've a beef with my commanding officer." "And... what's that?" "That mother-frakker keeps trying to get me killed." "Oh, you ever think you might deserve it?" "Speak for yourself, Lee, I... have a destiny." "Had my palm read by a Cylon, remember?" "A destiny, right?" "You better believe that." "So I guess, you are stuck with me till the end." "I gotta go break in your new CAG," "Sir."
