With that, the captain of the transport interrupts Roslin with news from Captain {{callsign|Lee Adama}} (flying escort in [[William Adama|his father's]] old restored [[Viper 7242|Viper]]) of a Cylon incoming missile. Jack is never heard from again in the miniseries, nor does Roslin speak again with any other surviving government officials. Later, Roslin is appointed to the office of the President of the Twelve Colonies by [[Case Orange|emergency succession]] {{TRS|Miniseries, Night 1}}.

In an early draft of the miniseries, Jack is apparently another secretary in the [[Government of the Twelve Colonies|Colonial government]].
