===== Captain ===== | ===== Flight 2 Captain ===== | ||
The captain of Flight 2 appears in the passenger cabin prompted by an indicator light that signified the deployment of the oxygen masks. The stewardess tells him of the hijacking attempt and subsequently remove the weapon from one of the stunned hijackers. When how they became stunned comes to question, a boy tells him that Dillon and Troy stunned them, which he doesn't believe ([[The Night the Cylons Landed, Part I]]). | |||

===== Flight 427 ===== | |||
The people of Flight 427 are almost killed when the damaged [[Shuttle Alpha]] makes its landing on Earth. Its co-pilot warns the captain of the danger, which allows the captain to quickly react and pilot the commercial aircraft out of the shuttle's way. | |||
[[ | The furious captain, who believes the shuttle to be a military aircraft, angrily growls about how he is sick of hot shots clogging up the commercial air lanes and rips into the USAF ([[The Super Scouts, Part I]]). | ||

===== Ticket Master ===== | |||
When Troy and Dillon enter the [[Los Angeles Airport]], they speak to two different women who are ticket masters. | |||
The first is at the front desk gives them their prepaid tickets for Flight 2 to [[New York City]]. She can tell they don't travel by air, since they ask about the metal detector scanners they have to pass through due to the threat posed by [[hijacking]]. | |||
The second is at the boarding area as she finalizes their tickets. Dillon and Troy, not knowing that there is a "smoking and non-smoking" section to the flight, lead to an idiotically "cute" question regarding how the plane would work best. She points out the gate and they leave. This same ticket master deals with the two terrorists posing as a married couple with a young baby, saying that they had just made the flight ([[The Night the Cylons Landed, Part I]]). | |||

[[Image:Umpire.jpg|thumb|The umpire.]] | |||
The umpire overseeing the game between the Polecats and the Encino Cougars has a sour disposition. This is particularly apparent when a [[Super Scout]] makes off with his shiny new silver dollar and, later, when a grounder hit by a Super Scout digs itself into the ground, resulting in an argument with the groundskeeper, [[Jenkins]] ([[Spaceball]]). | |||

These same CHiPs later find Dillon and Troy on the highway again, after they had made their purchase at a department store for supplies. With no time for subtlety, the Warriors fly off, leaving them bemused ([[The Super Scouts, Part I]]). | |||

==== | ===== Bank Teller ===== | ||
[[Image:Bank Teller.jpg|thumb|[[Caroline Smith]] as the bank teller.]] | |||
Dillon talks to a bank teller at a bank, hoping to get the [[cubit]]s analyzed in a quick fashion. After she claims that they don't assay the gold at the bank, Dillon asks for the coins back, but is met with stern questioning from her regarding the origin of the coins. Believing him to be a thief, she activates a silent alarm, which Dillon notices. | |||
[[ | Dillon subsequently stuns a guard named [[Harry]] after she calls for help. Seeing this, she gives him the cubits and thousands in dollar bills. Dillon attempts to give it back, but she is too sacred to accept. | ||
The teller tries to convince him to give up his robbery attempt, seeing that he's a "nice kid". Dillon promises to pay her back, asking her where she lives. She replies that answering that would be crazy, but gives him an address of 327 Harrat Street when Dillon points the laser pistol at her. She quickly replies that she's moving "just as soon as you finish robbing this bank" ([[The Super Scouts, Part I]]). | |||

He orders that no one, not even their own people, go near the ships, noting that teams from [[w:Wright-Patterson|Wright-Patterson]] and [[w:Washington, D.C.|Washington]] are going to arrive "first thing in the morning". It is after these orders are given that Xaviar, dressed as an Air Force guardsman, enters his Viper under the cloak of invisibility and begins recharging the [[energizer]]s of his Viper via the base's generator, an event that this major witnesses ([[Galactica Discovers Earth, Part III]]). | |||

An irate [[United Broadcasting Company]] employee comes across the Super Scouts in a studio as [[Wellington]] is explaining the components of a camera. An $80,000 camera in a state disassembly. He runs to Mr. [[Brooks]] office to confront Jamie Hamilton, who later drags Brooks, [[Hal]] and Hamilton down to the stage. After insisting that the camera was "ruined", it comes to him as a complete surprise that Camera 4 was in working order and he concedes that his people may have well had the camera taken apart for maintenance. The alternative, as Hamilton notes, is that a bunch of children put it back together in perfect working order ([[Spaceball]]). | |||

{{inlineref|Willie's mother}} is seen as Willie bursts into the house in the typical place for Earthling women: the kitchen. In a manner typical of house-bound women of 1980s Earth, she admonishes Willie for dragging dirt through her house.

When observing the loading of trains bound for the [[w:Auschwitz|Auschwitz]] concentration camp, a little girl runs toward Hamilton, Dillon, Troy, and [[Stockwell]]. Troy grabs her while Dillon shoots at the pursuing Nazi guard and with her makes their escape. | |||
Later, [[Stockwell]] meets up with the leader of a resistance cell in [[Peenemünde]], [[w:Germany|Germany]], the owner of a local bookstore. It is this bookstore that is the headquarters for the local resistance, which Stockwell hopes will help him in thwarting the Nazi's V-2 rocket program. The Gestapo subsequently storm the bookstore, capturing the resistance and the little girl as well ([[Galactica Discovers Earth, Part II]]). | |||
Both of these individuals, including box cars full of Jews and others meant to be transferred to Auschwitz, are subsequently freed by Major [[Stockwell]] and Jamie Hamilton ([[Galactica Discovers Earth, Part III]]). | |||
