Upon his return with {{TOS-RH|Starbuck}} and {{TOS-RH|Baltar}}, Apollo orders {{TOS-RH|Jolly}} to drag Virgil to his duty station, so that Jolly is able to join in their defense of the Fleet from {{TOS-RH|Lucifer}}'s imminent attack<ref name="p229">{{cite book/RH|1|229}}</ref> {{RH|Armageddon}}. | |||
== Notes == | |||
* The name "Virgil" is from the Latin, namely attributed to poet [[Publius Vergilius Maro]], whose works are responsible for a trinity of poems: the ''[[w:Eclogues|Eclogues]]'', the ''[[w:Georgics|Georgics]]'', and the ''[[w:Aenid|Aenid]]''. The name of this character is likely derived from this source, in keeping with the [[Original Series]]' tradition of utilizing names from various mythologies. | |||
