==Plot==


=== The Seraphs Intercede ===
* The [[Meclon Raiders]] converge on the newly arrived {{alt|Ship of Lights}}, allowing the combined forces of {{alt|Viper|TOS}}s and {{alt|Raider|TOS}}s to go on the offensive.
* Meclon Raiders engage in suicide runs against the Ship of Lights, with debris heading into {{alt|The Fleet|TOS}} and ''{{alt|Galactica|TOS}}''.
* Aboard ''Galactica'' {{alt|Salik}} and {{alt|Cassiopeia}} tend to patients in [[life center]]; {{alt|Boxey|TOS}} and {{alt|Muffit}} shelter in place; and the {{alt|Quorum of Twelve|TOS}} shelter in place in their council chambers.
* On [[core command]], {{alt|Apollo|TOS}} realizes that {{alt|Adama|TOS}} is possessed by {{alt|Iblis}}. Being the only one to realize it, Apollo reacts by drawing his [[laser pistol]] on Adama, and {{alt|Tigh|TOS}} intercedes the attempt. While {{alt|Baltar|TOS}} shares his thoughts on "ridiculous drama" to {{alt|Lucifer}}, Tigh disarms Apollo and orders the Warrior's confinement to his quarters.
* Apollo mentally reaches out to Adama, and Adama is able to use the mental link to fight off Iblis' possession; Adama is mentally whole again.
* In space, the Ship of Lights succumbs to the attack, reaching out to both Viper and Raider pilots with a high-pitched sound that precedes the destruction of the [[Seraphs]]' vessel. The ship implodes on itself, destroying the Meclon attackers in the process, and tears a hole that leads them back into the known universe.
* The Seraphs materialize on ''Galactica'', revealing that they knew of Iblis' trap and they waited to show themselves once Iblis had been purged from Adama's being. With Iblis "gone for now," the Seraphs note that the destruction of their ship will show the way back. Adama orders the space superiority craft to escort each individual civilian ship through the tear.
* Baltar objects, saying that he cannot leave his congregation behind on [[Iblis' planet]]. The Seraphs confirm that they are being attended to "this very moment," and have been brought back to the escaping Fleet.
* Following their exodus from Iblis' entrapment, the Seraphs preside over a peace between the Cylons and the humans, who now work together and search for "a shining planet known as {{alt|Earth|TOS}}."
=== Epilogue ===


* Cast out yet again to the [[Iblis' planet|planet of his creation]], {{alt|Iblis}} uses his powers to summon those who first followed him for they "have been damned for too long," shedding his false human face and proudly showing donning his true face.
* Resurrecting his followers' spirits in [[Meclon]] form, he forms his own fleet to pursue those who have wronged him and to bring them to "ruination."

=== Incongruences ===
=== Incongruences ===


* The {{alt|Viper|TOS}}s use the [[Re-imagined Series]] color scheme of the red stripes, instead of the [[Original Series]]' orange.
*  
* A "Serpah" misspelling in {{alt|Lucifer}}'s dialogue occurs on the page 12-13 double-spread featuring the {{alt|Ship of Lights}} implosion.


=== Nods ===
=== Nods ===


* Cylons working alongside humans is reflective of the events in the back-half of the [[Re-imagined Series]]' [[Season 4.5|final season]], as well as the appearance of [[Messengers|out-worldly beings]] to guide them {{RDM|Earth|to a shining planet known as Earth}}.

*: '''Baltar''': Ah! With all the ridiculous drama that takes place on this vessel, it's a wonder we didn't destroy them long ago!

*: Come to me... come forth and serve me... serve our day of ''reckoning''! Now is your time... time to seek revenge against those who exiled you. I shall lead you on this quest! The Seraphs have shown their weakness. Taking up with the humans. Hiding amongst them. ''But I will hide my '''true face''' no more!''

*: Let your spirits ignite the hearts of the dead ships orbiting this world... let a fleet of our own take shape! Plot a pursuit course. Chase ''Galactica'' down. We will bring them to ''ruination''!
