When a mysterious [[Cylon (TOS)|Cylon]] force attacks [[The Fleet (TOS-BN)|the Fleet]], Jolly participates in the engagement as part of the responding squadrons. During the initial phase of the battle, when scanners detect a large force of ships approaching ''[[Galactica (TOS-BN)|Galactica]]'', Jolly speculates over the commline, "Could it be some kind of maverick Cylon group?"<ref name="STG114">{{cite book|last=Larson|first=Glen A.|coauthors=[[Robert Thurston|Thurston, Robert]]|authorlink=Glen A.

During the major battle with [[Spectre (alternate)|Spectre]]'s forces, Jolly demonstrates exceptional piloting skill.

Jolly is also mentioned by [[Hera (TOS-BN)|Hera]] when she attempts to justify her actions to Starbuck, noting that she would have interfered with the plans of "anybody else. Boomer, Jolly—" to prevent them from undertaking dangerous solo missions.<ref name="STG68">{{cite book|last=Larson|first=Glen A.|coauthors=[[Robert Thurston|Thurston, Robert]]|authorlink=Glen A.

[[File:Marvel - Jolly.png|thumb|Jolly informs {{alt|Apollo|TOS}} on the [[pluton poisoning]] of their food stores following the {{alt|Battle of Cimtar||destruction of the Colonies}} ({{comics|marvel|2}}).]]

Lieutenant Jolly is a Colonial Warrior aboard ''{{alt|Galactica|TOS}}''. During the inspection of food stuffs, he reports that [[pluton poisoning]] has affected the food taken by the Fleet ({{comics|marvel|2}}).

Commander {{alt|Adama|TOS}} keeps Jolly and other Warriors&mdash;excluding Apollo, {{alt|Starbuck|TOS}}, and {{alt|Boomer|TOS}}&mdash;on reserve while commissioning volunteers to wear Warrior uniforms so as to provide the illusion of falling into the {{alt|Alliance}}'s trap. Once the aforementioned trio uncover the truth of {{alt|Carillon}}, Jolly and the other Warriors spring Adama's trap on the surface, dispatching the force of {{alt|Centurion|TOS}} laying in wait ({{comics|marvel|3}}). 

Jolly becomes romantically involved with {{alt|Uri||Sire Uri}}'s accomplice, [[Medea]] {{comics|comic1=marvel|issue1=22|comic2=marvel|issue2=23}}.
