After departing | After departing [[Kobol (TOS)|Kobol]], and while still in the [[magnetic void]], Uri schemes to remove [[Adama (TOS alternate)|Adama]] from his presidency in order to obtain power for himself. He tries to force Adama to abandon the sub-light ships, however Master Technician [[Shadrack]] convinces the Council that every sub-light ship could be converted to faster-than-light capacity within two weeks. Still, Uri's sticking point is the Fleet's ultimate destination: [[Earth (TOS)|Earth]]. Considering Earth to be nothing more than some myth, he attempts to paint Adama as a madman, and threatens to ask for Adama's resignation if he cannot prove Earth's existence. This forces Adama's use of the [[memory inducer]] in order to bring forward the fleeting memory of what he saw on the [[Tomb of the Ninth Lord of Kobol|inscriptions]] (''[[The Memory Machine]]''). | ||

As the Fleet's legal leader, he assumes command of ''[[Galactica (TOS)|Galactica]]'' and attempts to have Adama killed; Colonel [[Tigh (TOS alternate)|Tigh]] manages to thwart the initial attack with [[Cassiopea (alternate)|Cassiopea]]'s help. Further, when the Fleet's agro ship goes missing—which is not planned by Uri or his harem, [[Medea]]—he panics and tries to stop his own men with [[Apollo (TOS alternate)|Apollo]]'s help. However, much to his dismay, the firefight damages the inducer's controls: Adama is locked inside the machine, apparently permanently (''All Things Past and Present''). | ||
