Summary

Questions

Analysis

Notes

  • This episode's title is a pun on the title of the 1926 Hemingway novel The Sun Also Rises.
  • The model ship which Adama destroyed in the previous episode is still sitting on a shelf in his quarters.
  • Romo Lampkin exhibits symptoms of Kleptomania. Over the course of the episode he steals many objects of little or no value including President Roslin's glasses and Baltar's fountain pen.

Noteworthy Dialogue

Official Statements

  • Ron D Moore, in his November 29, 2006 blog, stated that Mark Sheppard would play a major role in the last three episodes of the season.
  • According to the podcast The Battlestar Roundtable, Mark Sheppard will play Romo Lampkin, a very unusual man who talks too much and is a lawyer involved in a very important case in the Colonial Fleet. His story arc will carry through the last 3 episodes of the season.
