Instead, Commander [[Cain (TOS)|Cain]]'s undertook the unorthodox maneuver to take an indirect route to the [[The Twelve Colonies (TOS)|Colonies]], believing that the Cylons were lined up between Molecay and the Colonies. | ||
Apparently typical of the ''Pegasus'' crew, Bojay finds offensive strikes to be as easy as breathing, and worships Cain as a "living legend". Ever since, he has participated in attacks on [[Gamoray]], thwarting the Cylons' plans to make it the center of their "outer capital" and raiding it for fuel and other supplies. | Apparently typical of the ''Pegasus'' crew, Bojay finds offensive strikes to be as easy as breathing, and worships Cain as a "living legend".

Fortunately the oncoming onslaught of [[Cylon Raiders|Cylon fighters]] diffuses this confrontation.
