The Galactica cannot retreat because several Cylon basestars are approaching from the rear. An assault team lead by Captain Skyler and Starbuck flys to the asteroid. Once there, they split up into two teams to take the mountain from different sides. Starbuck's team finds a small village inhabited by an immortal humanoid race called the Nari, created millenia ago by a female human. They are now enslaved to the Cylons.

Later, Starbuck sees a room full of copies of famous Earth paintings by Margrit, Van Gogh, Rembrandt, Renoir, and Warhol. | The Galactica cannot retreat because several Cylon basestars are approaching from the rear.
