H.M.S. Glutton o' Punishment
| |||||
The H.M.S. Glutton O' Punishment[1] is the name of the alleged expensive, insured model sailing ship[2] that William Adama is seen working on throughout the series.
It first appears when Galen Tyrol appeals to Adama to overturn the tribunal's conviction of Socinus (TRS: "Litmus"). Following his recovery from having chest cracked open, the walnut-cracking Adama resumes work on the ship while Anastasia Dualla appeals to him the importance of bring the Fleet together following the schism between himself and Laura Roslin (TRS: "Home, Part I").
It has been mangled twice: once by Adama's hands o' cranky doom after Kara Thrace's death (TRS: "Maelstrom"), the second time by Tigh's glutes o' grinding (TRS: "Sine Qua Non"). It is unknown if he packed it away or left it aboard Galactica when it flew into the heart of the sun, the heart of the sun... the heart of the sun, the heart of the sun... (TRS: "Daybreak, Part II").
