	* Zee boasts to Adama that the craft originates from Earth, and that it took him 3.2 [[centar]]s to translate the Earth language. Upon questioning Zee as to why Adama was not immediately notified upon this discovery, and Zee notes that he is an "old man" and that "sometimes, my excitement gets the better of my judgment."		* Zee boasts to Adama that the craft originates from Earth, and that it took him 3.2 [[centar]]s to translate the Earth language.

	* Dillon raises his concern over the public reaction, noting that many among ''[[Galactica (1980)\|Galactica]]'''s hangar crew—not to mention civilians—have seen the craft during its recover and subsequent transfer from ''Galactica'' to ''Rising Star''. Faced with this reality, and the fact that word has spread throughout the Fleet like wildfire, Adama and Zee address the [[Quorum of Twelve (TOS)\|Quorum of Twelve]]. While Adama advises that the Quorum be prepared with answers to the survivors' questions, Zee informs the Quorum that the humans on Earth are primitive and the Colonials would not be welcomed with open arms, but the reaction would be "inhospitable." Zee recommends that, for their safety and the safety of the Earthlings, they conquer the planet. Adama's reaction is one of sheer outrage.		* Dillon raises his concern over the public reaction, noting that many among ''[[Galactica (1980)\|Galactica]]''{{'\|s}} hangar crew—not to mention civilians—have seen the craft during its recover and subsequent transfer from ''Galactica'' to ''Rising Star''.
