1
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,039
Previously
on Battlestar Galactica...

2
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:24,952
Thus shall it come to pass.

3
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,112
The dying leader shall know
the truth of the Opera House.

4
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,430
Where did you hear that?
Who told you that?

5
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,114
The hybrid before they unplugged it.

6
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,352
I've got to find out
about these visions.

7
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,988
Plug it in.
It's time to get some answers.

8
00:00:40,480 --> 00:00:42,789
Can I see what you drew?

9
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:46,909
Hera?

10
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,989
Get away from my child!
You are never gonna take her.

11
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:02,393
Jump!

12
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:07,989
Heavenly Father...

13
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,071
Give me the strength...

14
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:11,753
The wisdom...

15
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,710
Quickly.
All right, on three.

16
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,758
One, two, three, lift.

17
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:34,197
Keep some pressure on that wound
until I can get to the artery. Mask on.

18
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,395
- Kidnapped!
- Baltar was with her!

19
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,120
- He's responsible?
- It was the Cylons.

20
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,999
- My people say she was shot.
- You talking about Roslin?

21
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,630
One of Adama's Marines shot a Cylon,
and that is how this thing has begun.

22
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,870
- So then where is Zarek?
- I don't know!

23
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:53,234
Who's in charge here?

24
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,154
Zarek is still waiting to talk to you.
What should I tell him? Sir?

25
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,873
Decker said they've shipped
the last of the Vipers.

26
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,713
Means we're down 40 birds,
almost as many jocks.

27
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,873
We're gonna have to reconfigure the CAP,
rethink our defence posture.

28
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,350
- Where is she?
- Marines are holding her.

29
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,033
My quarters.

30
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,158
Nobody has told us anything.

31
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,436
- Hi.
- Mr Vice President.

32
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,717
- I have some questions for you.
- Thank you. Calm down.

33
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,077
Everybody!
Everybody just calm down, please.

34
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,674
Mr Vice President,
it's important we know.

35
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,798
- Is the president dead?
- We have no information.

36
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,999
- I heard she was assassinated.
- No truth to that, as far as we know.

37
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,993
- Then what the hell do we know?
- Our first priority.

38
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,472
...is to get out as much information
as we can to avoid exaggeration.

39
00:02:46,640 --> 00:02:50,997
To that end, I asked Admiral Adama to
come and answer our questions directly.

40
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,833
Unfortunately,
he wouldn't take my call.

41
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,513
At this time...

42
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,069
However... However...

43
00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,958
Please. Please, just a moment.

44
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,272
President Roslin
was aboard the Cylon baseship...

45
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,319
...along with Baltar and many of
Galactica's pilots when itjumped away...

46
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,075
...after one of their own leaders
was shot aboard Galactica.

47
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,038
We have no idea when
or if they'll return...

48
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:26,193
...or if the president or the other
captives will be subject to reprisals.

49
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,558
For now, by the powers
granted me by law...

50
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,076
- I have taken over as president.
- Hear, hear!

51
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,878
By refusing to meet with Zarek, you're
helping him fan the Quorum's suspicions.

52
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:17,951
Their suspicions don't concern me.

53
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,270
Look, maybe he's not
the man we hoped for...

54
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:24,228
...but he is next in line and the Fleet
needs reassurance and stability.

55
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,789
...that only its
military commander can offer.

56
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:31,636
If this Fleet needs reassurance, then
you reassure them. That's yourjob now.

57
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,950
You can tell Zarek he can go to hell.

58
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,434
- Why?
- Sir?

59
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:45,469
Do you hate your people so much that
you look for any excuse to kill one?

60
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,394
Or did you deliberately try
to sabotage this truce?

61
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,755
No, sir, of course not.

62
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,751
Then you tell me why.

63
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,151
You make me understand why you did this.

64
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,399
They were gonna take her.

65
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,109
The Six.
She was gonna take my child.

66
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,149
There were too many witnesses.
They all said the same thing.

67
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:13,958
Your daughter was lost.

68
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,396
The Cylon merely kneeled down,
was talking to her.

69
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,949
That's what it looked like to others,
but I know.

70
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,236
- Oh, you knew better.
- I had a vision...

71
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,551
where the Six and Baltar
were taking Hera away from me.

72
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,915
A vision.

73
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,358
It was more than a vision.
When I saw them together...

74
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,830
I knew that they would take her,
they would take away my child!

75
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:40,039
You murdered an unarmed woman.
And, by doing so...

76
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,318
...you put the lives of every single
person in this Fleet at risk.

77
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,359
And quite possibly cost the lives
of the president and your husband.

78
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,274
You disobeyed the direct orders
of a superior officer...

79
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:57,753
...but, more importantly,
you betrayed a promise to me.

80
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,952
I trusted you.

81
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:08,152
Sir, I will accept any form
of punishment that you think I deserve.

82
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,710
I just ask that you
please don't take away Hera.

83
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:16,192
I'm afraid the brig
is no place for a little girl.

84
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:19,598
Guards!

85
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,110
- Get her out of my sight.
- Yes, sir.

86
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,948
At one time, Adama
supported Gaius Baltar's administration.

87
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:34,352
- A chance he'd support yours?
- Only Admiral Adama can answer that.

88
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,318
I will address this
to Delegate Adama.

89
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,598
Do you think your father will
hand over power to this administration?

90
00:06:45,840 --> 00:06:49,071
No.

91
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,310
We have no authority...

92
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,198
Fine. Yeah.

93
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,318
Recon Raptor reported back.
Resurrection hub's gone.

94
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,119
No sign of the baseship
carrying the president...

95
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,748
...assuming that's where they were headed.

96
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,673
They were determined
to resurrect the Three.

97
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:56,512
What we used to call D'Anna.

98
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,877
To do that, they gotta go to the hub.

99
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,035
- You find it, we'll find them.
- Ah, easier said than done.

100
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,633
Maybe.

101
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,633
We got other problems.
Starbuck's having trouble.

102
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,836
...fielding planes to fly a standard CAP.

103
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:15,391
Wants us to consider having the Fleet
tighter so it's easier to defend.

104
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,950
Means counting on a bunch
of civvies flying close formation.

105
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,032
- Yeah.
- Organise it.

106
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,712
I got you appointed to this job.

107
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,077
Pulled strings, called in favours...

108
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:41,028
...all because I thought
you might do some good.

109
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,909
Now, you're advising me to step aside.

110
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:49,392
...from a position that, by law, is mine.

111
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,230
A position I was elected to.

112
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:56,029
- But you were never elected president.
- But I was elected...

113
00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,637
...to office!
Which is more than Roslin can claim.

114
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,196
Why do you think she kept me on
in the first place?

115
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,909
To thank me for rolling over? No.

116
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,390
No, to help legitimise her coup.

117
00:09:13,560 --> 00:09:15,471
In the military...

118
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,708
...we used to talk about
facts on the ground.

119
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,071
The facts on the ground are these:

120
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,516
Right or wrong, Adama will never
recognise you as president...

121
00:09:25,680 --> 00:09:28,956
...and we need someone he will.
The Quorum has a legal authority.

122
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,793
...to appoint an interim president
in a time of crisis.

123
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,155
And I suppose you have someone in mind?

124
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,952
No. No, not yet.

125
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,350
Which is why we need
to form a committee.

126
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,796
...and start looking for a candidate
as soon as possible.

127
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,592
Well, good luck with that.

128
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,874
Do you believe
this government's in danger?

129
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,476
Face facts. What we had these
past five years isn't a true government...

130
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,029
...but a tacit agreement between
a military strongman.

131
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,873
...and a political strongwoman
to rule together by fiat.

132
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:08,238
You asked the Quorum to authorise
the creation of a civil defence force?

133
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,075
After the last coup, we don't want
to depend on Galactica's Marines.

134
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,390
...to guarantee our safety.

135
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:18,434
You see the problem?

136
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,113
Lampkin's first rule of legal dynamics.

137
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,840
When an irresistible force.

138
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,992
...meets a movable object...

139
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,471
...stand aside...

140
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,789
...and wait for the class action suit.

141
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,669
Except I'm not sure if it's to anyone's
benefit if we just sit around...

142
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:43,717
waiting to pick up the pieces.

143
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,031
It's heading for a showdown.
There's gonna be bloodshed...

144
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:51,273
Unless you can find someone else.
Someone your father won't reject...

145
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:55,797
...someone the Quorum will approve of,
someone to take Tom Zarek's place.

146
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,919
...as interim president
until the next round of elections.

147
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,431
Don't take the case, counsellor.

148
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:07,879
It's a loser.

149
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:13,154
I have to. We have to.

150
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,556
No one on the Quorum
is going to lift a finger.

151
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,554
Zarek's got them inhaling fear
and exhaling anger.

152
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,599
But you have taken the pulse
of the Fleet, and you know character.

153
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,991
And, frankly, you need
a reason to get out of this room.

154
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:36,278
Unless you want to start discussing
what's been keeping you here.

155
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,356
So you won't be dissuaded, will you?

156
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,270
Not even when you hear my fee?

157
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,076
- Fee?
- Appearances to the contrary...

158
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:57,358
I'm actually in this for the money.
I have a reputation to maintain.

159
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,956
OK, so, what did Roslin offer you
to defend Baltar?

160
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,196
Room with a view.

161
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,511
I'm not sure I can improve on that.

162
00:12:07,680 --> 00:12:10,035
Then pro bono it is, counsellor.

163
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:12,552
Word to the wise.

164
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,349
Sometimes it's better to settle
for what you've already got.

165
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:26,431
Colonel Tigh. I understand
you've developed a relationship.

166
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,318
with the Cylon prisoner.

167
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:32,439
That's not the word I'd use,
but she has been more co-operative.

168
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,194
See if she'll tell you
anything about the hub.

169
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:41,635
Bill.

170
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,469
We'll find her.
We'll find all of them.

171
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:56,996
The resurrection hub.
How do we find it?

172
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:01,039
- I'm sure the others have told you.
- You tell me.

173
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,752
Only our hybrids can locate it.
And then only after it completes a jump.

174
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,071
- They can't anticipate where it goes.
- You're holding back.

175
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,800
I know it. You're lying.

176
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,236
I have never lied to you, Saul.
Why don't you trust me now?

177
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,595
There are too many lives at stake, lady.

178
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:22,910
Your buddies took off
with half an air wing...

179
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,356
...not to mention the president
of the frakking Colonies.

180
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:31,071
She's the real reason you're so angry,
so worried. I can hear it in your voice.

181
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:35,028
Why? Why is a dying woman
so important to you?

182
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,589
Not to me, godsdammit, to the old man.

183
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:40,673
Admiral Adama?

184
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:56,556
Saul.

185
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,711
- Do you love me?
- What?

186
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,235
Be honest with me.
I've been honest with you.

187
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:02,674
I don't believe this.

188
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,232
You're asking me if...

189
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,396
Attention. Set condition one
aboard the ship. Not a drill.

190
00:14:10,560 --> 00:14:14,439
This has gone too far. I don't
know what mind games you are playing...

191
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,354
...but it ends here!

192
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:29,349
- What have we got?
- Missing Raptorjumped into range.

193
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,034
- We sure it's ours?
- Transponder checks out.

194
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,749
One that boarded the rebel baseship.
No radiological signature.

195
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,514
Racetrack and Skulls
on their way to intercept.

196
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:45,359
Actual, Racetrack. I'm eyeballing
our bird now. Looks shot to hell...

197
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:49,718
...venting fuel and O2.
Still no response to hails.

198
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,678
Someone had to jump that bird.

199
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,238
I can't see a frakking thing from here.

200
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,233
Skulls, take the wheel.
I'm going for a walk.

201
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,192
Decompression check OK. Opening hatch.

202
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,158
Safety line secure.
Moving toward the Raptor.

203
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,673
I'm seeing major damage to the canopy.

204
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,391
Looks empty inside.

205
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:07,073
I got the hatch open,
but it's stuck.

206
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:08,514
Grav field's off.

207
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,750
It's Pike.

208
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,319
He's dead.

209
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,715
This is the shuttle she took over
to the baseship.

210
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,073
Laird was able to salvage
the flight data recorder...

211
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:58,358
...puts the originating jump point
deep in Sector Delta 9.

212
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:03,391
President Zarek called again. Heard
about the Raptor, waiting to be briefed.

213
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,677
Recall the CAP. Spin up the FTLs.

214
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,717
- What about the Fleet?
- Let's go.

215
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,998
We are looking for an understudy.
Quandary is...

216
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:17,073
...one doesn't generally get
the chance to wield political power.

217
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,390
without the ambition
to actively seek it.

218
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,039
Easy, Lance.

219
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,590
That same ambition often compromises.

220
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,672
...the unselfish motives
that begat the quest.

221
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:32,038
In other words, a battle of id
versus ego that ego rarely wins.

222
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:37,199
- Roslin never sought power.
- Exception that proves the rule.

223
00:17:37,360 --> 00:17:41,911
One could argue that Laura Roslin
is a study in repressed ambition.

224
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:43,718
Just like you, Mr Adama.

225
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,710
Never seeking out a job
until it's handed to you?

226
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,555
Flight leader, battlestar commander,
Quorum delegate.

227
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,678
A man doesn't carve out
a path through life without...

228
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:59,231
All right, enough psychoanalysis.
Let's get back to the job in hand.

229
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,471
Does your father have
some other place he wants to go?

230
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:05,839
What?

231
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,959
Where the hell did they go?
And why didn't they tell us?

232
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:37,991
Galactica, Racetrack, we've located
the source of the transponder.

233
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,357
It's Sandman's Viper, all right,
but no Sandman.

234
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,909
Affirmative. Keep searching.

235
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,038
Getting radiation signatures
from multiple nukes.

236
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:55,399
Baseship fragments, other debris
indicative of resurrection technology.

237
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,836
I'm afraid it paints
a pretty clear picture.

238
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,959
They found the hub
and they destroyed it.

239
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:09,153
Looks like our pilots helped. Question
is, where did they go from here?

240
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:12,153
Oh, Bill.
You are way too close to this.

241
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,675
The president's baseship was destroyed.

242
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,751
It's a different baseship.

243
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,753
We'll search every square inch
of this debris field.

244
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,992
- Until we come up with a clue.
- Leave the rest of the Fleet.

245
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,310
with their asses hanging in the wind?

246
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,438
Detail four Raptors to stay behind.

247
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:33,594
They keep searching until they find
something concrete. Give my order.

248
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,078
People, listen up.
What are we gonna do here?

249
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:48,358
- They've left 39,000 lives...
- Everybody, gather round. Gather round.

250
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,239
- Uh, Mr President.
- Please, please, please.

251
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,233
I'm sorry. Adama will
not be answering questions.

252
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,358
I did learn that he's
contacted the Fleet's captains.

253
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,512
...to inform them that
several ships will be requisitioned.

254
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,513
...to expand the search
for Roslin and the missing ship...

255
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,514
while all tylium shipments will
be diverted to support that mission.

256
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,229
- Are you bypassing us completely?
- I understand, I understand.

257
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,949
We're doing the best... Trying
to get through communications.

258
00:20:15,120 --> 00:20:17,031
- That is unconscionable!
- Come on.

259
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:18,679
That is nothing short of...

260
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,432
Captain Franks?

261
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,195
I was impressed by her gravitas
during her turn as judge.

262
00:20:24,360 --> 00:20:27,238
...in the Baltar trial.
That and her vote, naturally.

263
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:31,518
She's already been approached to
run for office. No interest in politics.

264
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,035
Sadly, now she really impresses me.

265
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,233
Gods! You wanna feed that animal?

266
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:41,638
Where is he anyway?

267
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,833
Come on, Romo.

268
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:46,638
Let's put our heads together.

269
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:50,349
Who would Adama respect as president?

270
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:55,036
What does this search
for paragons net us anyway...

271
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,714
...except greater guilt
at our own failings.

272
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:02,476
Or worse: The idiot's solution
of the clean slate, the fresh start.

273
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,313
Whoa. We haven't ruled out
all these names yet.

274
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,153
This one's a loser.
An exercise in futility.

275
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,193
Lawyers.

276
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,638
How's this affect the president?
Break in treatment.

277
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,951
- Assuming no changes in circumstances?
- Yes.

278
00:21:25,120 --> 00:21:28,715
Diloxin kicks your ass, so she
actually might feel better at first.

279
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,553
But any break gives
the cancer a chance to regroup...

280
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:35,349
...makes it harder to beat it back.
She's taken a hit to her immune system.

281
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,114
...so she'll be vulnerable to infections.

282
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:40,439
How long?

283
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,752
The sooner you get her back here,
the better her chances are.

284
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:50,758
And while you're digesting that,
I have some other news.

285
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:54,276
I ran some tests on your Cylon prisoner.

286
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,954
Guess what I found.

287
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,319
Raptors are due back in a few hours.

288
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:07,837
Granted, if they'd found anything,
we would have heard from them by now.

289
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:13,154
- Once we correlate their reports...
- I'm not interested in the search.

290
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,035
- You're not?
- You've been spending time.

291
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,236
...interrogating the Six.

292
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:25,033
But now the brig guards tell me
that every time you order them out...

293
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,795
- And you turn off the cameras.
- I'm not torturing her...

294
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,713
- if that's what you're worried about.
- I'm not.

295
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:35,270
That, I could almost understand.
This, I can't.

296
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,948
Cottle tells me she's pregnant.

297
00:22:41,360 --> 00:22:44,432
What the frak
have you been thinking, colonel?

298
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:47,912
Do you deny it?

299
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:51,631
You don't.

300
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:53,791
You can't!

301
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,952
What the hell have you been thinking?

302
00:22:57,120 --> 00:23:00,715
Who was interrogating whom? How many
secrets have you told this thing?

303
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,952
How can you even ask me that?
Question my loyalty?

304
00:23:04,120 --> 00:23:07,669
Your loyalty?
I need more than your loyalty.

305
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,752
You're my first officer.
I need judgment.

306
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,388
I need your competence.

307
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:17,269
I'm through jeopardising this ship
because of your weaknesses.

308
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,158
- My weaknesses?
- Yeah!

309
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:23,393
You're risking all our lives, for what?
Our missing pilots? No, for a woman!

310
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,950
- For a frakkin' woman!
- You watch what you frakking say!

311
00:23:27,120 --> 00:23:30,590
She's the president, not some
skinjob that I've been banging.

312
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,399
- What would Ellen say?
- Leave Ellen out of this.

313
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,792
What would Ellen say about her husband
impregnating a frakking Cylon prisoner?

314
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,155
You motherfrakker!

315
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,070
Ah! Oh!

316
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:10,390
You know how many times
I've had to repair this thing?

317
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,069
What are you gonna do with that woman?

318
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:36,073
What are you gonna do about Laura,
if you ever find her?

319
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,671
I don't know.

320
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,230
Have the Raptors and the
civilian ships begin the search.

321
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,392
...from Phantom's last known position.

322
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,235
Is that a problem?

323
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,391
Sir, respectfully...

324
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,996
I've already got two missing pilots
and hardly enough birds left.

325
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:25,119
...to protect this Fleet. You're asking
to send the remainder out on a search.

326
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,840
...looking for a ship
that may be destroyed.

327
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,719
My people feel like
they're on suicide missions.

328
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:32,438
I'm not asking.

329
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,390
You're dismissed, captain.

330
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:56,990
Admiral Adama?

331
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,392
What are you doing here?

332
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:13,359
Writs of forfeiture
for the ships you're borrowing.

333
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:18,435
The captains want to be absolved of any
blame should anything untoward happen.

334
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,798
One of the less ennobling consequences
of a legal culture.

335
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,474
No one wants responsibility.

336
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,474
Lee said you once gave him
something before a mission.

337
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,756
A lighter, was it?

338
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,110
It belonged to my father.

339
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:42,034
Foolish to think a hunk of metal
could keep him safe.

340
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,794
And yet that's what we do, isn't it?

341
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:50,193
Hang on to hope, in every
hopelessly irrational way that we can.

342
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:55,116
But not like those poor bastards,
giving away their luck...

343
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:59,114
...just when they need it most.
It's like they've given up.

344
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,879
If you've never been in combat,
you have no idea what they're thinking.

345
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,157
I always imagined you
a realist, admiral.

346
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:13,677
Not one to indulge a vain hope
at the cost of lives.

347
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:19,477
But then, everyone has his limits.

348
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:24,159
- Sine qua non, as they say.
- "Without which not".

349
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:28,916
Yes. Those things we deem essential
without which we cannot bear living...

350
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:34,359
without which life in general
loses its specific value.

351
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,353
Becomes abstract.

352
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:42,155
- You may have a point, counsellor.
- And while I'm on a roll...

353
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:49,910
Tom Zarek may not be an ideal
president, but we could do worse.

354
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:53,756
You're right.

355
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,673
There are limits to my realism.

356
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,391
Goodbye, counsellor.

357
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,474
I can't give up on her.

358
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,108
I can't let her go.

359
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,033
I've lost my objectivity.

360
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,428
And now that I see that,
I have no choice.

361
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:29,679
Tell the Quorum that I am relinquishing
command, effective immediately.

362
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:36,598
No man is perfect.

363
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:41,515
No man is less perfect
than a candidate for high office.

364
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,318
Thus...

365
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:49,029
...the ranks of likely suspects
is winnowed to none.

366
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,078
What if we're going
about this backwards, hey, Lance?

367
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:59,677
What if instead
of picking names and finding fault...

368
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:03,071
we ask ourselves the qualities
that we want.

369
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:09,076
No, that we need in a new chief
executive, see who fits that bill.

370
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,870
Honesty, of course.

371
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:17,958
The wisdom to recognise
the correct if unpopular choice...

372
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,918
...as well as the courage
to see it through.

373
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:22,832
Experience.

374
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,311
When the wrong choices cost lives
and the right ones save.

375
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,277
Tall order.

376
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,557
We might as well
just spell out one name.

377
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,198
Just one.

378
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,150
One we knew from the start.

379
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,956
Sometimes, you take on a losing case.

380
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,554
...and you make yourself a believer.

381
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,235
Other times,
no matter what you tell yourself...

382
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:12,398
...in your heart,
you know the outcome is fixed.

383
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,676
The verdict inevitable.

384
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,388
Lance. Defence rests.

385
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,518
Come on.

386
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,550
Apologies.
I couldn't wait to tell you.

387
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:39,711
- Tell me what?
- We found our candidate.

388
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:44,954
Someone the Quorum won't hesitate to
approve, even over Zarek's objections.

389
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:49,557
Someone the admiral
can't help but accept.

390
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,597
Yeah? Who?

391
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,356
Congratulations, Mr President.

392
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,876
My name was never on that list.

393
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,271
Of course not!
That would be too blatant.

394
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:06,228
But it is everything you always wanted,
isn't it?

395
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,756
Why you had me cross
47 names off that list.

396
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:13,276
Come on, admit it.

397
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,799
Savour your victory, Mr Adama.

398
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,353
Because you'll never
get the chance to serve.

399
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:28,959
- What are you doing?
- Why?

400
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,475
'Cause you're perfect for the job,
of course.

401
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,438
After the aberration
that was Baltar's presidency...

402
00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:37,433
...and the bitter disappointment
that was Roslin's...

403
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,559
...you are a shining beacon of hope.

404
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,280
Only hope is the last thing we need.

405
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:48,991
We're a doomed race, and it's time
we made our peace with that truth.

406
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:53,153
- What the hell are you talking about?
- Why? You wanna know why?

407
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:55,871
Open it!

408
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,358
That's right.

409
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:09,590
- They killed my cat!
- They?

410
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,991
They! Those debased dregs
of humanity out there!

411
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:17,836
Our lost tribe in search of a new home,
so they can roost and rot again.

412
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,468
- How long has the cat been dead?
- How long?

413
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:24,349
It's irrelevant, it's immaterial!
Since it wasn't even my cat!

414
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:28,718
- Romo, it's been dead for weeks.
- It belonged to my wife.

415
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,634
I'd retrieved it from a vet on Gemenon
when the bombs started to fall...

416
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,588
...and fate presented me with a choice.

417
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,309
I could get back on that shuttle, or...

418
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:45,031
...I could run home
and try to save my family.

419
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,350
- How do you think I chose?
- Romo.

420
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,750
We've all made difficult choices,
I know.

421
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,070
Your wife's name was Faye.

422
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,674
You had two daughters,
Jennifer and Katie.

423
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,115
There were 200 passengers
on that shuttle.

424
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,716
Only a handful chose to stay behind.

425
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:07,635
Right. It was in your file when you were
handed the job as Baltar's counsel.

426
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,997
But no one blamed you, Romo.
Because, at a certain point...

427
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:16,314
we all made decisions that saved
our lives at the cost of others.

428
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:18,550
You think you're unique, Romo?

429
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,792
- Think your sins are so special?
- Is that it, counsellor?

430
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:27,956
You're gonna rest your entire case
on that pathetic little bit of insight?

431
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:30,395
No, on this.

432
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:36,310
The clean slate, the fresh start.
Maybe they are illusions, like you said.

433
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,392
But at a certain point, faith...

434
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:44,873
...in ourselves, in our right
to survive as a species, as a people...

435
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:48,316
...that's not a given, that's a choice.

436
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,037
Well, I've made mine.
And if you can't stomach that...

437
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:58,228
...then you had damn well better
squeeze that trigger right now. Go on.

438
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,152
What are you waiting for?

439
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:04,431
Or you can make a choice.

440
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,028
Put your past behind you...

441
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:12,557
...put the gun down and help me...

442
00:34:12,720 --> 00:34:17,157
...because I'm telling you I'm gonna
make a difference in this Fleet.

443
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,756
- Is that your final word?
- That's up to you.

444
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:24,836
Then swear it.

445
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,991
I, Leland Joseph Adama...

446
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,799
...do now avow and affirm...

447
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:35,714
That I take the office
of President of the Twelve Colonies.

448
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:40,078
...of Kobol without any moral reservation
or mental evasion.

449
00:34:40,240 --> 00:34:43,630
That I take the office of
President of the Twelve Colonies.

450
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:48,112
...of Kobol without any moral reservation
or mental evasion.

451
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,675
This is a frakking joke.

452
00:34:53,720 --> 00:34:57,679
You're the only man I can trust
to command this ship.

453
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,149
Maybe you're crazy enough
to pull a stunt...

454
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,198
...but you can't be crazy enough
to leave me in charge.

455
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:07,433
In case you forgot, my last term
at the helm was a complete disaster.

456
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:11,559
That was a long time ago.
You're not the same man you were.

457
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:16,833
You're not even the same man
who came back from New Caprica.

458
00:35:18,720 --> 00:35:20,836
You've found out a lot about yourself...

459
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,231
...been tested in ways
I can barely begin to imagine.

460
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:25,958
You're ready.

461
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:31,399
Besides, don't count
on this being permanent.

462
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,198
What if it is?

463
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,718
Put these on.

464
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:43,032
Then you lead the people to Earth
the best way you can.

465
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:47,079
The Fleet has stayed here
too long already.

466
00:35:47,240 --> 00:35:51,552
- Any other last orders?
- Just one.

467
00:35:54,240 --> 00:35:57,312
Give Athena back her daughter.
She needs her family.

468
00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,550
We all need our family.

469
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:02,233
Take care of this one.

470
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,672
Let me see changes
before you get this out to the press.

471
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:44,512
- All right.
- Thank you.

472
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:46,716
Mr Lampkin.

473
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:49,389
Romo.

474
00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:53,193
One day in office
and you've already got a first pet.

475
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:57,994
Jake here is a genuine hero
of the Resistance. Aren't you, Jake?

476
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:02,199
Unfortunately,
his previous owners had to let him go.

477
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:06,273
Jake, meet Romo. Romo, meet Jake.

478
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:10,957
Your new best friend.

479
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,953
If there's one thing
I hate more than cats, it's dogs.

480
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,430
A new pet for you to loathe.
I knew it would be the perfect gift.

481
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,430
Good luck, Jake.

482
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,478
I hear you're keeping Zarek
as vice president.

483
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:30,631
I can use the advice.

484
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:34,873
And as long as he knows he's heard,
I think I can trust him.

485
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:38,237
Don't know if I agree
with your thinking, but...

486
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:41,073
Well, I could say
the same thing about yours.

487
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:48,113
The only difference is you are gonna be
president. I'm just getting in a plane.

488
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,078
Alone in a Raptor
while the Fleetjumps away.

489
00:37:51,240 --> 00:37:53,595
That's notjust getting in a plane.

490
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,638
That... That sounds a lot like...

491
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,392
Sounds a lot like suicide, Dad.

492
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,313
At least this time
I'm only risking my own neck.

493
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:06,076
So I guess it won't matter if, as
president, I order you not to do this?

494
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,833
I don't know if I ever told you this...

495
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,912
...but one of my first missions
was a solo recon.

496
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:18,039
Being alone in a Raptor
in enemy space...

497
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,156
I'm not going to lie, I was scared.

498
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:24,871
I told myself that I was doing my duty
and, ultimately, I faced my fear.

499
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,118
That's a good memory.

500
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:33,513
- Why are you doing this?
- Because I can't live without her.

501
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:38,198
And Laura is gonna get
to the rendezvous point.

502
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:39,998
I have to believe that.

503
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:57,833
- Admiral.
- Admiral.

504
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:03,631
- What do you hear, Starbuck?
- Nothing but the rain, sir.

505
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:07,395
- Grab your gun and bring the cat in.
- Yes, sir.

506
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,472
Keep a light on. I'll be back.

507
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:12,838
You can count on it.

508
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,154
Galactica, this is Husker.
I'm in position.

509
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:14,878
Affirmative, Husker.

510
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,314
All Fleet ships,
this is Galactica actual.

511
00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:24,835
- Commence jump.
- Yes, sir.
