Aboard Celestra, Aurora and her fellow mutineers make last-centon preparations for their takeover attempt. Aurora and her lover Damon begin their mutiny by taking hostages in the landing bay; however, another crewman successfully alerts the bridge amid laser fire. Kronus is able to send security reinforcements to corner the mutineers; he and Charka personally grab laser pistols and take part in the melee. Apollo and Starbuck, who had landed aboard the Celestra during the uprising, walk into the middle of a firefight; Starbuck comes face to face with Aurora, each holding a laser blaster, but neither willing to fire. The mutineers are captured and rounded up for transport to Galactica; since a senior commander must be present to bring charges of mutiny, Kronus accompanies the prisoners aboard the shuttlecraft, being piloted by Apollo and Starbuck (TOS: "Take the Celestra").
