As it was said in the [[Sacred Scrolls]] that humans returning to Kobol face a deadly risk, Meier decides that this would be the perfect cover for Adama's death {{TRS|Home, Part I}}. | ||
On {{RDM|Kobol}}, Zarek warns Meier to be cautious and await the best opportunity. However, such an opportunity passes after Commander [[William Adama|Adama]]'s party arrived; Zarek tells Meier to cancel the operation. | On {{RDM|Kobol}}, Zarek warns Meier to be cautious and await the best opportunity.

Meier plays on Valerii's emotional state by telling her of [[Sharon Valerii|Boomer]]'s murder by [[Cally Henderson|Cally]], and "warns" her of the same fate from the Adamas. Valerii tells Meier that when they reached the [[Tomb of Athena]], she would "take the father" while he "[took] the son". | ||
At the Tomb's entrance, Valerii draws a [[Stallion]] pistol on Adama, prompting Lee to point his pistol at her and Meier to point his weapon at Lee. Valerri double-crosses Meier by turning and shooting him instead, then turning the pistol over to Adama, indicating that the pistol was given to her by Meier. A second, identical pistol falls from Meier's hand as he falls to the ground. | At the Tomb's entrance, Valerii draws a [[Stallion]] pistol on Adama, prompting Lee to point his pistol at her and Meier to point his weapon at Lee.
