Specialist '''Brooks''' is a deckhand aboard ''Galactica''.<br />
<br />
He boards a [[Raptor 718|Raptor]] bound for the ''[[Zephyr]]'' in order to perform some maintenance duties. He is accompanied by Lt. [[Felix Gaeta|Gaeta]], two [[Number Eight|Eights]], Lt. [[List of pilots#J. "Shark" Finnegan|J. "Shark" Finnegan]] and [[List of pilots#"Easy" Esrin|"Easy" Esrin]] ([[The Face of the Enemy]]).<br />
<br />
The Raptor becomes separated from [[The Fleet (RDM)|the fleet]] and stranded with a limited air supply. He attempts to repair the CO2 scrubbers but is unable to reach into the compartment. An Eight offers to help, but is electrocuted shortly after she fixes the system.<br />
<br />
Several hours later, Brooks is found to have died from a [[morpha]] overdose. One empty vial is found in his hand, and another next to his body. The morpha presumably came from the supply brought aboard by [[Gaeta]].<br />

Specialist '''Prosna''' is a [[deckhand]] on ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'' prior to [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|the Cylon attack on the Twelve Colonies]].<br />
<br />
A friend to [[Cally Henderson]] and [[Socinus]], Prosna is late in wrapping one the flight deck crew's two surprise gifts for the retiring Commander [[William Adama]] — a photo of young Adama and his two sons, [[Lee Adama|Lee]] and [[Zak Adama|Zak]] found by Prosna in the [[Colonial Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] archives. When Adama runs into them as he worked on the decommissioning ceremony speech, Socinus covers up their nervousness in hastily hiding the gift photo by complaining about the leaks they had to patch on the windows that cover the now-pressurized starboard [[flight pod]], which houses a museum of relics from the [[Cylon War]].<br />
<br />
When the battlestar is unexpectedly brought to [[Action Stations|Condition One]] status, Prosna is mopping the deck. As he runs to stations, he comments to Cally Henderson how the battlestar wasn't supposed to fight at all: ''Galactica'' destroyed her remaining battery munitions as part of her decommissioning ceremony earlier that day ([[List of Deleted Scenes (RDM)|deleted scene]]), and her last squadron of [[Viper Mark VII|Mark VII Vipers]] left for [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]] as well.<br />
<br />
Prosna is part of a damage control team when the port [[flight pod]] is struck by a nuclear missile in the battlestar's first Cylon sortie in over 40 years. Prosna calls for help to Tyrol, who manages to get to [[CIC]]'s damage control station. Unfortunately, the fires are advancing too fast, and ''Galactica'''s water mains are offline, leaving the D.C. parties to fight the fires with hand-held gear. Worse, the fires are coming too close to fuel lines for the battlestar; if the fire reaches them, the ship could be lost.<br />
<br />
In [[CIC]], Colonel [[Saul Tigh]] directs the venting of the specific [[frame|frames]] in the port flight pod to space to quickly extinguish the fires. Tyrol manages to get a warning message to the D.C. party and Prosna, who warns as many people as he can that the compartment is about to be vented.<br />
<br />
Prosna himself cannot or does not properly prepare for the venting action. He dies, possibly as part of the venting.<br />
<br />
Cally Henderson finds his badly burned body and holds him, crying, until Chief Tyrol helps her away. Prosna becomes one of the first 85 people to die on ''Galactica'' in the second Cylon War ([[Miniseries]]).<br />

"'''The Face of the Enemy'''" is a webisode series featuring [[Felix Gaeta]] and two [[Number Eight]]s who, along with a handful humans, are stranded on a [[Raptor 718|Raptor]] and mysteriously begin to die one by one. These events take place six to nine days after "[[Revelations]]".<br />
<br />
== Summary ==<br />
===Episode 1===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 12, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~4:11<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE1.jpg|thumb|Tigh tells Gaeta to take a vacation.]]<br />
A blood-covered Felix Gaeta is in a Raptor adrift in deep space, nine days after the events of "Revelations". Flashbacks of a list of names being written on a pad, a Number Eight cutting into her palm, a pair of needle-nose pliers, and a struggle inside the Raptor segue to three days before (six days after "Revelations").<br />
<br />
Over his protests, an exhausted Gaeta is ordered by Colonel [[Saul Tigh]] to take a week's leave aboard the ''[[Zephyr]]'' to recover. On his way to the hangar bay, Lt. [[Louis Hoshi]] catches up with him in the hallway, gives him [[morpha]] for his pain, then kisses him goodbye, evincing a romantic relationship. Joining Gaeta on the flight are [[deckhand]] [[Brooks_(RDM)|Brooks]], two Number Eights, and the Raptor shuttle flight crew, Lt. [[J. Finnegan|J. "Shark" Finnegan]] and [[Esrin|"Easy" Esrin]].<br />
<br />
With the Raptor 15 minutes away from the ''Zephyr'', [[DRADIS]] picks up hostile [[Cylon (RDM)|Cylon]] contacts and the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] is forced to make an emergency [[Propulsion_in_the_Re-imagined_Series#Faster-Than-Light travel|jump]]. The Raptor completes its jump, but discovers that the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] is nowhere to be seen.<br />
<br />
===Episode 2===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 15, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~3:42<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE2.JPG|thumb|The occupants of the stranded Raptor.]]<br />
Shark broadcasts on [[wireless]] to any ships that might be nearby, Easy says she entered the right coordinates, and Gaeta's stump starts to act up. A worried Brooks suggests jumping back, thinking the Fleet might have left a Raptor behind for a little while, but the Eights don't think so, since that could give away their position to Cavil's ships. Gaeta is sure that the Fleet knows they're missing and sent someone back to look, but they can't find out because the jump drive isn't responding. Brooks begins to pray to [[Poseidon]], puzzling the Eights since they're a long way from water, but Brooks replies they are in a ship after all. Shark discovers the drive isn't responding because they have jumped over the [[red line]], and are unable to jump back to their starting point. The Eight in a Cylon [[flight suit]] ("Hard Eight") says she suspected as much, since she didn't recognize the star patterns. Felix sits at the aft workstation and determines that FTL computer calculations were corrupted. Shark reasons that getting back to the Fleet is not impossible, just harder, and as Hard Eight and the others continue their discussion, the other Eight ("Sweet Eight") asks Felix if he recognizes her.<br />
<br />
Back on ''[[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'', Hoshi is clearly worried for Felix. The DRADIS contact was a false alarm, the Fleet has jumped back to their original coordinates, and there has been no sign of the missing Raptor for two days. He asks Tigh for a Raptor and a pilot to search for the missing Raptor, explaining that just as something in the universe led them to Earth, he knows he can find Felix. He stops short of revealing just how close he is to Felix, and instead asserts that there's been too much loss already. Tigh agrees to Hoshi's request, but will have to run it by Admiral [[Adama (RDM)|Adama]].<br />
<br />
Back aboard the Raptor, Shark determines how long they can last out there. The limiting factor is the air supply; since the Raptor was on shuttle detail, the CO<sub>2</sub> scrubbers were left not fully functional. They have only 20 ½ hours with the air thinned out to 68% of ship-normal O<sub>2</sub>, so everyone must limit their exertion and sleep as much as they can to stretch out the supply. Easy points out that at that oxygen level people experience memory loss, irrational behavior, depression, and dizziness.<br />
<br />
===Episode 3===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 17, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~2:42<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE3.jpg|thumb|Gaeta meets with an Eight on New Caprica.]]<br />
Brooks offers to take a look at the Raptor's CO<sub>2</sub> scrubbers and opens a side panel. Meanwhile, Felix recognizes Sweet Eight. A flashback to 15 months earlier on Cylon-occupied [[New Caprica]] shows the two meeting in a tent, with Felix looking over a list of names and handing it to the Eight. Felix looks concerned as Sweet Eight leaves the tent.<br />
<br />
Brooks finds a loose connection, but has trouble reaching it. Hard Eight offers to take over, and Brooks hands her his pliers. She reaches it, then stiffens as she is electrocuted. Esrin kicks her free, and Gaeta checks for a pulse before declaring her dead. Brooks is stunned, exclaiming, "My gods, I was just doing that! I was just doing that same thing!" Sweet Eight calls attention to the pliers. Felix finds that the insulating grip has been stripped off and asks, "Who did this?"<br />
<br />
===Episode 4===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 22, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~3:12<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE4.jpg|thumb|Gaeta asks what to do with the dead Eight's body.]]<br />
Shark examines the pliers and observes they are old and that the grips wore off, but Sweet Eight suggests that it wasn't an accident, that "someone didn't like the idea of a machine breathing their air." Brooks points that the pliers were his and he was the one who was supposed to have been killed, but Sweet Eight replies not unless he was the one who stripped the grips and questions how he could not have noticed the bare metal. Felix quashes the growing argument, saying it was an accident, and asks what to do with the corpse. Sweet Eight says jettison her, she will otherwise begin to decay and corrupt the air, and that the oxygen in the cabin can be sucked back into the tanks with only a little loss. As flight suits are broken out and put on, Sweet Eight whispers to Gaeta that she has an idea how to get them home, she will tell him when the others are asleep, and to trust her.<br />
<br />
In a flashback to New Caprica, Gaeta writes down a list of names and what look like serial numbers for Sweet Eight. He tells her he hasn't seen some of these people in a long time, and they may already be dead. Sweet Eight reassures Gaeta that the [[Number One]]s keep good records, and if some of them are locked up, she can find them and get them out, and reassures him that they can do this.<br />
<br />
Back in the Fleet, Lt. [[Margaret Edmondson|Margaret "Racetrack" Edmondson]] and Hoshi launch from ''Galactica'' in [[Raptor 1029]].<br />

<br />
== Notes ==<br />
* Felix Gaeta has a metal [[w:prosthesis|prosthetic]] leg.<br />
* The two Number Eights are nicknamed "Sweet Eight" and "Pilot Eight" in the commentary by Jane Espenson, the latter being the one in a Cylon flight suit. However, the script for this webisode lists "Pilot Eight" as "Hard Eight."<ref>See: [[Sources: The Face of the Enemy]].</ref><br />
<br />
== Analysis ==<br />
* The rebel Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|basestar]] is still with the fleet.<br />
* Saul Tigh has returned to duty, despite being outed as one of the [[Final Five]] Cylons.<br />
* It now does not appear unusual to have Number Eights aboard ''Galactica'', or for them to be ride aboard Colonial shuttles.<br />

"'''The Face of the Enemy'''" webisode series focuses on [[Felix Gaeta]], who is accompanied by a handful of humans and two [[Number 8|Number Eights]] on a [[Raptor 718|Raptor]], during which they mysteriously begin to die, one by one. The events of this story take place between six and nine days after "[[Revelations]]".<br />
<br />
== Summary ==<br />
===Episode 1===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 12, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~4:11<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE1.jpg|thumb|Tigh tells Gaeta to take a vacation.]]<br />
A blood-covered [[Felix Gaeta]] is in a Raptor adrift in deep space, nine days after the events of "[[Revelations]]". Flashbacks of a list of names being written on a pad, a [[Number Eight]] cutting into her palm, a pair of needle-nose pliers, and a struggle inside the Raptor segue to three days before (six days after "Revelations").<br />
<br />
Over his protests, an exhausted Gaeta is ordered by Colonel [[Saul Tigh]] to take a week's leave aboard the ''[[Zephyr]]'' to recover. On his way to the hangar bay, [[Louis Hoshi|Hoshi]] catches up with him in the hallway, gives him [[morpha]] for his pain, then kisses him goodbye, evincing a romantic relationship. Joining Gaeta on the flight are [[deckhand]] [[Brooks_(RDM)|Brooks]], two Number Eights, and the Raptor shuttle flight crew, Lt. [[J. Finnegan|J. "Shark" Finnegan]] and [[Esrin|"Easy" Esrin]].<br />
<br />
With the Raptor 15 minutes away from the ''Zephyr'', [[DRADIS]] picks up hostile Cylon contacts and the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] is forced to make an emergency jump. The Raptor completes its jump, but discovers that the Fleet is nowhere to be seen.<br />
<br />
===Episode 2===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 15, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~3:42<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE2.JPG|thumb|The occupants of the stranded Raptor.]]<br />
The Raptor crew is trying to communicate with any fleet ships. Brooks begins to pray to [[Poseidon]] and the pilot Eight remarks that they're "a long way from water", but Brooks points out that they're on a ship. The [[FTL]] drive does not respond and they figure out that they have jumped beyond the [[red line]] due to an accidental glitch and have no way of getting back to the fleet. The pilot Eight exclaims that she didn't recognize the star patterns. The other Eight asks Felix if he recognizes her.<br />
<br />
Aboard the Galactica, Hoshi is clearly worried for Felix. He asks Tigh for a Raptor and a pilot to go find the missing Raptor. It has been two days since the Raptor went missing. It turns out that the incoming Cylon fleet was just a false alarm, and the fleet had jumped back to the original coordinates. Tigh considers Hoshi's request and states that he will consult with Admiral [[Adama (RDM)|Adama]] on the matter.<br />
<br />
Back aboard the Raptor, the crew is trying to figure out how long they can stay alive. They only have a 20 1/2 hour air supply due to having only a 68% of normal Oxygen supply, so everyone must limit exertion and try to sleep to prolong the supply. Esrin points out that with low oxygen levels people will become dizzy, experience memory loss, and begin to act irrationally.<br />
<br />
===Episode 3===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 17, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~2:42<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE3.jpg|thumb|Gaeta meets with an Eight on New Caprica.]]<br />
The webisode begins with a repeat of Finnegan and Esrin's comments about the oxygen supply.<br />
<br />
Brooks offers to take a look at the Raptor's CO2 scrubbers and opens a side panel. Meanwhile, Felix recognizes the Eight that spoke to him earlier. A flashback scene to 15 months earlier, on Cylon-occupied [[New Caprica]], depicts a meeting in a tent between the two. Felix is seen looking over the list of people seen in the first webisode, and hands it back to the Eight. Felix looks concerned as the Eight leaves the tent.<br />
<br />
Brooks finds a loose connection, but has trouble reaching it. The pilot Eight offers to take over and Brooks hands her the pliers that he was using. The pilot Eight says, "Got it," but is immediately killed by an electric shock. Esrin kicks her away and Gaeta checks her pulse. Brooks, stunned, exclaims, "I was just doing that. I was just doing that same thing," while the remaining Eight tells Gaeta to check the pliers. Felix finds that the insulating grip has been stripped off and asks, "Who did this?"<br />
<br />
===Episode 4===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 22, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~3:12<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE4.jpg|thumb|Gaeta asks what to do with the dead Eight's body.]]<br />
The webisode begins with a repeat of Brooks' and Gaeta's comments about the pliers' insulation being stripped off.<br />
<br />
Finnegan grabs the pliers and comments that they are "old as [[frak]]". The remaining Eight suggests that the dead Eight was murdered. Brooks says that he should have been the one to be killed, but Eight questions how he could have not noticed bare metal. After a brief argument, Eight suggests that the body must be jettisoned otherwise it will begin to decay and give off methane. The oxygen in the cabin can be sucked back into the tanks while the hatch is open. As everyone begins to put on pressurized flight suits, Eight whispers to Gaeta that she has an idea on how to get back to the fleet, but she will only tell him when everyone else is asleep.<br />
<br />
Back on New Caprica, Gaeta is writing a list of people for Eight. He is worried that he hasn't seen some of them for a long time, and some may be dead. Eight reassures Gaeta that the [[Number One|Ones]] keep good records, and if any of the people on the list are in detention, she will find them and get them out.<br />
<br />
In the fleet, [[Raptor 1029]] takes off from the [[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]] with Lt. [[Margaret Edmondson|Margaret "Racetrack" Edmondson]] and Lt. Louis Hoshi aboard.<br />

== Notes ==<br />
* Felix Gaeta has a metal leg replacement.<br />
* The two Number Eights are nicknamed "Sweet Eight" and "Pilot Eight" in the commentary by Jane Espenson. "Pilot Eight" is in a Cylon flightsuit.<br />
<br />
== Analysis ==<br />
* The rebel Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|Basestar]] is still with the fleet.<br />
* Saul Tigh has returned to duty.<br />
* It does not appear to be an unusual occurrence for there to be Number Eights on-board the ''Galactica'', or for them to be taking a Raptor ride to the ''Zephyr''.<br />

<br />
* [[Katee Sackhoff]] noted that this episode could have served as the series finale depending on the length of the [[WGA strike]].<ref name="roadrunner">{{cite_web|url=http://roadrunnerdm.livejournal.com/84288.html|title=Roadrunner - Newsdump from Burbank convention|date=19 November 2007|accessdate=20 November 2007|last=|first=|format=|language=}}</ref> However, this was not necessary, as the strike ended in a sufficient period of time for production to resume, combined with the fact that this episode will not air until the first quarter of 2009, given that the previous episode is a mid-season finale.<br />
* This episode will have scenes between [[Kara Thrace]] and [[Leoben Conoy]] set in a forest, which (according to [[Jamie Bamber]]) is set on [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]].<ref name="roadrunner"/><br />
* The scenes were among the last shot and were shot during the crew's shut down party, so Sackhoff was unable to attend.<ref name="roadrunner"/><br />
*The title of the episode comes from the blues song "[[w:Goodnight, Irene|Goodnight, Irene]]," in which the singer contemplates suicide: "Sometimes I get a great notion / to jump in the river and drown." ''Sometimes A Great Notion'' is also the title of a [[w:Sometimes a Great Notion (novel)|novel]] by Ken Kesey and a [[w:Sometimes a Great Notion (film)|film adaptation]] of the same name.<br />

<br />
'''Raptor 718''' is a ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' raptor flown by [[Richard Bayer|Richard "Buster" Bayer]] during a Raptor training exercise ordered by Captain [[Kara Thrace]].<br />
<br />
During the exercise, it responds to a distress signal with [[Raptor 314]] within the dark clouds of a binary star system. Not long after, the crews of both Raptors no longer respond and are presumed lost or disabled within the cloud.<br />
<br />
Raptor 718 and its companion Raptor are found by ''Pegasus'', its crew inside killed and its atmosphere vented into space. As it turns out, the Raptors were bait by the Cylons to lure Colonial forces into the cloud, as predicted by Admiral [[William Adama|Adama]]. The Raptors are abandoned after three Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|basestars]] [[Battle of the Binary Star System|ambush ''Pegasus'']], eventually forcing it to retreat ([[The Captain's Hand]]).<br />

Raptor 718 is flown by Lt. [[J. Finnegan|J. "Shark" Finnegan]] and [[Esrin|"Easy" Esrin]] while shuttling [[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]] crew and allied rebel Cylons to the ''[[Zephyr]]''. When the Fleet jumps away due to a false alarm, the Raptor accidentally jumps beyond the [[red line]] and is stranded with four humans and two [[Number Eight]] Cylons aboard with a depleting oxygen supply ([[The Face of the Enemy]]).<br />

The '''''Zephyr''''' is an [[FTL]]-capable civilian passenger liner that manages escape the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|destruction of the Twelve Colonies]] to join the [[the Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] ([[Miniseries]]). <br />
<br />
During the events of President [[Laura Roslin]]'s incarceration, all twelve delegates from the [[Quorum of Twelve]] are en route from this ship to ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'' ([[Fragged]]).<br />
<br />
Lt. [[Felix Gaeta]] discovers fraudulent ballots for President Roslin in ''Zephyr'''s ballot box during her ill-fated re-election attempt versus Vice-President [[Gaius Baltar]]. The ballots are later rejected and Baltar is declared the winner ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
After the discovery and settlement of [[New Caprica]], the ship is one of the few to remain in orbit (its shape may make it impractical or impossible to land). It manages to escape the [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] blockade of the planet along with ''Galactica'' and ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]).<br />

The ''Zephyr'' is among the first ships taken through the star cluster towards the [[algae planet]] ([[The Passage]]) and is among the first ships to jump into the [[Ionian nebula]] before losing power ([[Crossroads, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
Baltar's first lawyer, [[Alan Hughes]], comes from the ''Zephyr''. Racetrack complains that she has to shuttle him between there and ''Galactica'' ([[The Son Also Rises]]).<br />
<br />
The ship is severely damaged by two missile strikes in the [[Battle of the Ionian Nebula]], but survives and is still capable of flight ([[He That Believeth in Me]]). A few days later, [[:image:Rebuilding the Space Park.jpg|repairs]] to the damaged portion of the ring begin ([[Six of One]]).<br />
<br />
Approximately two months later, the ring section has been largely repaired and is spinning, but only on occasion, possibly because spinning the ring might cause more damage again ([[Guess What's Coming to Dinner?]]).<br />
<br />
The ''Zephyr'' is amongst the group of ships that successfully arrive at [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]] ([[Revelations]]).<br />
<br />
Lt. Felix Gaeta is on his way to the ''Zephyr'' for some R&R along with two [[Number Eight]]s, Specialist [[Brooks (RDM)|Brooks]], Lt. [[J. Finnegan|J. "Shark" Finnegan]] and [[Esrin|"Easy" Esrin]]([[The Face of the Enemy]]).<br />
<br />
== Additional Information ==<br />
<br />
:''The following information was previously available on the SciFi Channel website. It should be noted that information from that website, while being official, is unreliable and may be contradicted on screen:''<br />
*The ''Zephyr'', referred to as the ''Space Park'', is of [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Libris|Libran]] registry.<br />
*Its enormous ring section was designed in the days when artificial gravity was too expensive to utilize on a commercial ship of that size. <br />
*This passenger liner design was so successful that it was adapted for scientific and military uses by replacing passenger accommodation with laboratories, auxiliary power generators, and computer cores. <br />
<br />
== Notes ==<br />
<br />
* The ship is likely named after the Greek god of the western wind, [[wikipedia:Anemoi|Zephyrus]].<br />
*The repair of the ''Zephyr'' is the first time that large scale repair operations to the outside of a ship within the Fleet can be seen on screen.<br />
*It appears that the ''Zephyr'' is one in a series of ships that has undergone a design retcon (others include the [[Viper Mark VII]], the Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|basestar]] and the Cylon [[Raider (RDM)|Raider]]/[[Heavy Raider]]) in the third season. The new version appears the be more weathered - with far fewer "clean" lines than the original model - and bears a thickened neck section and a jagged antenna-like device that replaces the needle nose of the original.<br />

"'''The Face of the Enemy'''" webisode series focuses on [[Felix Gaeta]], who is accompanied by a handful of humans and two [[Number 8|Number Eights]] on a [[Raptor 718|Raptor]], during which they mysteriously begin to die, one by one. The events of this story take place between six and nine days after "[[Revelations]]".<br />
<br />
== Summary ==<br />
===Episode 1===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 12, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~4:11<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE1.jpg|thumb|Tigh tells Gaeta to take a vacation.]]<br />
A blood-covered [[Felix Gaeta]] is in a Raptor adrift in deep space, nine days after the events of "[[Revelations]]". Flashbacks of a list of names being written on a pad, a [[Number Eight]] cutting into her palm, a pair of needle-nose pliers, and a struggle inside the Raptor segue to three days before (six days after "Revelations").<br />
<br />
Over his protests, an exhausted Gaeta is ordered by Colonel [[Saul Tigh]] to take a week's leave aboard the ''[[Zephyr]]'' to recover. On his way to the hangar bay, [[Louis Hoshi|Hoshi]] catches up with him in the hallway, gives him [[morpha]] for his pain, then kisses him goodbye, evincing a romantic relationship. Joining Gaeta on the flight are [[deckhand]] [[Brooks_(RDM)|Brooks]], two Number Eights, and the Raptor shuttle flight crew, Lt. [[J. Finnegan|J. "Shark" Finnegan]] and [[Esrin|"Easy" Esrin]].<br />
<br />
With the Raptor 15 minutes away from the ''Zephyr'', [[DRADIS]] picks up hostile Cylon contacts and the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] is forced to make an emergency jump. The Raptor completes its jump, but discovers that the Fleet is nowhere to be seen.<br />
<br />
===Episode 2===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 15, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~3:42<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE2.JPG|thumb|The occupants of the stranded Raptor.]]<br />
The Raptor crew is trying to communicate with any fleet ships. Brooks begins to pray to [[Poseidon]] and the pilot Eight remarks that they're "a long way from water", but Brooks points out that they're on a ship. The [[FTL]] drive does not respond and they figure out that they have jumped beyond the [[red line]] due to an accidental glitch and have no way of getting back to the fleet. The pilot Eight exclaims that she didn't recognize the star patterns. The other Eight asks Felix if he recognizes her.<br />
<br />
Aboard the Galactica, Hoshi is clearly worried for Felix. He asks Tigh for a Raptor and a pilot to go find the missing Raptor. It has been two days since the Raptor went missing. It turns out that the incoming Cylon fleet was just a false alarm, and the fleet had jumped back to the original coordinates. Tigh considers Hoshi's request and states that he will consult with Admiral [[Adama (RDM)|Adama]] on the matter.<br />
<br />
Back aboard the Raptor, the crew is trying to figure out how long they can stay alive. They only have a 20 1/2 hour air supply due to having only a 68% of normal Oxygen supply, so everyone must limit exertion and try to sleep to prolong the supply. Esrin points out that with low oxygen levels people will become dizzy, experience memory loss, and begin to act irrationally.<br />
<br />
===Episode 3===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 17, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~2:42<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE3.jpg|thumb|Gaeta meets with an Eight on New Caprica.]]<br />
The webisode begins with a repeat of Finnegan and Esrin's comments about the oxygen supply.<br />
<br />
Brooks offers to take a look at the Raptor's CO2 scrubbers and opens a side panel. Meanwhile, Felix recognizes the Eight that spoke to him earlier. A flashback scene to 15 months earlier, on Cylon-occupied [[New Caprica]], depicts a meeting in a tent between the two. Felix is seen looking over the list of people seen in the first webisode, and hands it back to the Eight. Felix looks concerned as the Eight leaves the tent.<br />
<br />
Brooks finds a loose connection, but has trouble reaching it. The pilot Eight offers to take over and Brooks hands her the pliers that he was using. The pilot Eight says, "Got it," but is immediately killed by an electric shock. Esrin kicks her away and Gaeta checks her pulse. Brooks, stunned, exclaims, "I was just doing that. I was just doing that same thing," while the remaining Eight tells Gaeta to check the pliers. Felix finds that the insulating grip has been stripped off and asks, "Who did this?"<br />

== Notes ==<br />
* Felix Gaeta has a metal leg replacement.<br />
* The two Number Eights are nicknamed "Sweet Eight" and "Pilot Eight" in the commentary by Jane Espenson. "Pilot Eight" is in a Cylon flightsuit.<br />
<br />
== Analysis ==<br />
* The rebel Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|Basestar]] is still with the fleet.<br />
* Saul Tigh has returned to duty.<br />
* It does not appear to be an unusual occurrence for there to be Number Eights on-board the ''Galactica'', or for them to be taking a Raptor ride to the ''Zephyr''.<br />

<div>'''Raptor 718''' is a [[Raptor]] that is identified with no less than two different ships.<br />
<br />
== ''Pegasus'' Raptor ==<br />
<br />
'''Raptor 718''' is a ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' raptor flown by [[Richard Bayer|Richard "Buster" Bayer]] during a Raptor training exercise ordered by Captain [[Kara Thrace]].<br />
<br />
During the exercise, it responds to a distress signal with [[Raptor 314]] within the dark clouds of a binary star system. Not long after, the crews of both Raptors no longer respond and are presumed lost or disabled within the cloud.<br />
<br />
Raptor 718 and its companion Raptor are found by ''Pegasus'', its crew inside killed and its atmosphere vented into space. As it turns out, the Raptors were bait by the Cylons to lure Colonial forces into the cloud, as predicted by Admiral [[William Adama|Adama]]. The Raptors are abandoned after three Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|basestars]] [[Battle of the Binary Star System|ambush ''Pegasus'']], eventually forcing it to retreat ([[The Captain's Hand]]).<br />
<br />
== ''Galactica'' Raptor ==<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE_Raptor718.jpg|thumb|Raptor 718 stranded in deep space ("[[The Face of the Enemy]]").]]<br />
<br />
Raptor 718 is flown by Lt. [[J. Finnegan|J. "Shark" Finnegan]] and [[Esrin|"Easy" Esrin]] while shuttling [[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]] crew and allied rebel Cylons to ''[[Zephyr]]''. When the Fleet jumps away due to a false alarm, the Raptor accidentally jumps beyond the [[red line]] and is stranded with four humans and two [[Number Eight]] Cylons aboard with a depleting oxygen supply ([[The Face of the Enemy]]).<br />
<br />
==Notes==<br />
* ''Pegasus''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> Raptor 718 is identified as "Raptor 17" on ''Pegasus''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> [[DRADIS]] screen. It should be noted that DRADIS numbers and ship numbers do not typically match.<br />

<div>:''For a list of [[Colonial Warrior]]s, the [[Viper (TOS)|original Viper]] pilots seen in the [[Original Series]], see [[List of Warriors]].''<br />
<br />
:''This list was created to keep track of ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'s'' current and former [[Viper (RDM)|Viper]] pilots, [[Raptor]] pilots and [[ECO]]s, and includes members of the crew of ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' as well.

<br />
[[Image:Final_Cut-Thin_Line_of_Blue.jpg|thumb|300px|Pilots and other enlisted in a recreation room on ''Galactica.'']]<br />
'''Pilots''' are officers in the [[Colonial Fleet (RDM)|Colonial Fleet]] trained and qualified to operate a [[Viper (RDM)|Viper]] fighter or a [[Raptor]] multipurpose vehicle.<br />
<br />
Pilot candidates, or "nuggets", normally start training in [[Computers in the Re-imagined Series#Viper Flight Simulators|simulators]], but after the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]], ''Galactica'''s nuggets went from classroom straight into live aircraft until ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' (with its on-board flight simulators) joined the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]]. Once nuggets complete their basic flight and combat training, they are known as "[[rook]]s".<br />
<br />
A flight-qualified pilot wears basic [[Insignia_(RDM)#Pilot_wings|pilot wings]] on the uniform's left breast. Senior-rated pilots (e.g. [[William Adama]], [[Saul Tigh]]) wear a variation with outstretched wings.<br />
<br />
Pilot wings are a permanently-awarded skills badge; they do not necessarily indicate active flight status, only that the wearer has successfully qualified as a pilot. Officers who have moved into non-flying positions, such as [[Aaron Kelly]] and [[Felix Gaeta]], continue to wear them.<br />
<br />
A [[flight suit]], which protects a pilot during a decompression emergency, is standard apparel for all pilots.<br />

Lieutenant '''J. "Shark" Finnegan''' is a [[Raptor]] pilot assigned to ''[[Galactica]]''.<br />
<br />
He serves with [["Easy" Esrin]] as his co-pilot aboard [[Raptor 718]]. While making a routine run to the [[Zephyr]] for R&R along with Lt. [[Gaeta]], Specialist [[Brooks (RDM)|Brooks), and two [[Number Eight]] [[Cylons]] aboard, a false alarm causes the fleet to make an emergency jump. The Raptor accidentally jumps beyond the [[red line]] with no way to return to their original coordinates. The Raptor is stranded in space with only 20 1/2 hours of oxygen left ([[The Face of the Enemy]]).<br />

"'''The Face of the Enemy'''" webisode series focuses on [[Felix Gaeta]], who is accompanied by a handful of humans and two [[Number 8|Number Eights]] on a [[Raptor 718|Raptor]], during which they mysteriously begin to die, one by one. The events of this story take place between six and nine days after "[[Revelations]]".<br />
<br />
== Summary ==<br />
===Episode 1===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 12, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~4:11<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE1.jpg|thumb|Tigh tells Gaeta to take a vacation.]]<br />
A blood-covered [[Felix Gaeta]] is in a Raptor adrift in deep space, nine days after the events of "[[Revelations]]". Flashbacks of a list of names being written on a pad, a [[Number Eight]] cutting into her palm, a pair of needle-nose pliers, and a struggle inside the Raptor segue to three days before (six days after "Revelations").<br />
<br />
Over his protests, an exhausted Gaeta is ordered by Colonel [[Saul Tigh]] to take a week's leave aboard the ''[[Zephyr]]'' to recover. On his way to the hangar bay, [[Louis Hoshi|Hoshi]] catches up with him in the hallway, gives him [[morpha]] for his pain, then kisses him goodbye, evincing a romantic relationship. Joining Gaeta on the flight are [[deckhand]] [[Brooks_(RDM)|Brooks]], two Number Eights, and the Raptor shuttle flight crew, Lt. [[List of pilots|J. "Shark" Finnegan]] and [[List of pilots#"Easy" Esrin|"Easy" Esrin]].<br />
<br />
With the Raptor 15 minutes away from the ''Zephyr'', [[DRADIS]] picks up hostile Cylon contacts and the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] is forced to make an emergency jump. The Raptor completes its jump, but discovers that the Fleet is nowhere to be seen.<br />
<br />
===Episode 2===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 15, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~3:42<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE2.JPG|thumb|The occupants of the stranded Raptor.]]<br />
The Raptor crew is trying to communicate with any fleet ships. Brooks begins to pray to [[Poseidon]] and the pilot Eight remarks that they're "a long way from water", but Brooks points out that they're on a ship. The [[FTL]] drive does not respond and they figure out that they have jumped beyond the [[red line]] due to an accidental glitch and have no way of getting back to the fleet. The pilot Eight exclaims that she didn't recognize the star patterns. The other Eight asks Felix if he recognizes her.<br />
<br />
Aboard the Galactica, Hoshi is clearly worried for Felix. He asks Tigh for a Raptor and a pilot to go find the missing Raptor. It has been two days since the Raptor went missing. It turns out that the incoming Cylon fleet was just a false alarm, and the fleet had jumped back to the original coordinates. Tigh considers Hoshi's request and states that he will consult with Admiral [[Adama (RDM)|Adama]] on the matter.<br />
<br />
Back aboard the Raptor, the crew is trying to figure out how long they can stay alive. They only have a 20 1/2 hour air supply due to having only a 68% of normal Oxygen supply, so everyone must limit exertion and try to sleep to prolong the supply. Esrin points out that with low oxygen levels people will become dizzy, experience memory loss, and begin to act irrationally.<br />
<br />
===Episode 3===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 17, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~2:42<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE3.jpg|thumb|Gaeta meets with an Eight on New Caprica.]]<br />
The webisode begins with a repeat of Finnegan and Esrin's comments about the oxygen supply.<br />
<br />
Brooks offers to take a look at the Raptor's CO2 scrubbers and opens a side panel. Meanwhile, Felix recognizes the Eight that spoke to him earlier. A flashback scene to 15 months earlier, on Cylon-occupied [[New Caprica]], depicts a meeting in a tent between the two. Felix is seen looking over the list of people seen in the first webisode, and hands it back to the Eight. Felix looks concerned as the Eight leaves the tent.<br />
<br />
Brooks finds a loose connection, but has trouble reaching it. The pilot Eight offers to take over and Brooks hands her the pliers that he was using. The pilot Eight says, "Got it," but is immediately killed by an electric shock. Esrin kicks her away and Gaeta checks her pulse. Brooks, stunned, exclaims, "I was just doing that. I was just doing that same thing," while the remaining Eight tells Gaeta to check the pliers. Felix finds that the insulating grip has been stripped off and asks, "Who did this?"<br />

"'''The Face of the Enemy'''" webisode series focuses on [[Felix Gaeta]], who is accompanied by a handful of humans and two [[Number 8|Number Eights]] on a [[Raptor 718|Raptor]], during which they mysteriously begin to die, one by one. The events of this story take place between six and nine days after "[[Revelations]]".<br />
<br />
== Summary ==<br />
===Episode 1===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 12, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~4:11<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE1.jpg|thumb|Tigh tells Gaeta to take a vacation.]]<br />
A blood-covered [[Felix Gaeta]] is in a Raptor adrift in deep space, nine days after the events of "[[Revelations]]". Flashbacks of a list of names being written on a pad, a [[Number Eight]] cutting into her palm, a pair of needle-nose pliers, and a struggle inside the Raptor segue to three days before (six days after "Revelations").<br />
<br />
Over his protests, an exhausted Gaeta is ordered by Colonel [[Saul Tigh]] to take a week's leave aboard the ''[[Zephyr]]'' to recover. On his way to the hangar bay, [[Louis Hoshi|Hoshi]] catches up with him in the hallway, gives him [[morpha]] for his pain, then kisses him goodbye, evincing a romantic relationship. Joining Gaeta on the flight are [[deckhand]] [[Brooks_(RDM)|Brooks]], two Number Eights, and the Raptor shuttle flight crew, Lt. [[List of pilots|J. "Shark" Finnegan]] and [[List of pilots#"Easy" Esrin|"Easy" Esrin]].<br />
<br />
With the Raptor 15 minutes away from the ''Zephyr'', [[DRADIS]] picks up hostile Cylon contacts and the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] is forced to make an emergency jump. The Raptor completes its jump, but discovers that the Fleet is nowhere to be seen.<br />
<br />
===Episode 2===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 15, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~3:42<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE2.JPG|thumb|The occupants of the stranded Raptor.]]<br />
The Raptor crew is trying to communicate with any fleet ships. Brooks begins to pray to [[Poseidon]] and the pilot Eight remarks that they're "a long way from water", but Brooks points out that they're on a ship. The [[FTL]] drive does not respond and they figure out that they have jumped beyond the [[red line]] due to an accidental glitch and have no way of getting back to the fleet. The pilot Eight exclaims that she didn't recognize the star patterns. The other Eight asks Felix if he recognizes her.<br />
<br />
Aboard the Galactica, Hoshi is clearly worried for Felix. He asks Tigh for a Raptor and a pilot to go find the missing Raptor. It has been two days since the Raptor went missing. It turns out that the incoming Cylon fleet was just a false alarm, and the fleet had jumped back to the original coordinates. Tigh considers Hoshi's request and states that he will consult with Admiral [[Adama (RDM)|Adama]] on the matter.<br />
<br />
Back aboard the Raptor, the crew is trying to figure out how long they can stay alive. They only have a 20 1/2 hour air supply due to having only a 68% of normal Oxygen supply, so everyone must limit exertion and try to sleep to prolong the supply. Esrin points out that with low oxygen levels people will become dizzy, experience memory loss, and begin to act irrationally.<br />
<br />
===Episode 3===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 17, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~2:42<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE3.jpg|thumb|Gaeta meets with an Eight on New Caprica.]<br />
The webisode begins with a repeat of Finnegan and Esrin's comments about the oxygen supply.<br />
<br />
Brooks offers to take a look at the Raptor's CO2 scrubbers and opens a side panel. Meanwhile, Felix recognizes the Eight that spoke to him earlier. A flashback scene to 15 months earlier, on Cylon-occupied [[New Caprica]], depicts a meeting in a tent between the two. Felix is seen looking over the list of people seen in the first webisode, and hands it back to the Eight. Felix looks concerned as the Eight leaves the tent.<br />
<br />
Brooks finds a loose connection, but has trouble reaching it. The pilot Eight offers to take over and Brooks hands her the pliers that he was using. The pilot Eight says, "Got it," but is immediately killed by an electric shock. Esrin kicks her away and Gaeta checks her pulse. Brooks, stunned, exclaims, "I was just doing that. I was just doing that same thing," while the remaining Eight tells Gaeta to check the pliers. Felix finds that the insulating grip has been stripped off and asks, "Who did this?"<br />

"'''The Face of the Enemy'''" webisode series focuses on [[Felix Gaeta]], who is accompanied by a handful of humans and two [[Number 8|Number Eights]] on a [[Raptor 718|Raptor]], during which they mysteriously begin to die, one by one. The events of this story take place between six and nine days after "[[Revelations]]".<br />
<br />
== Summary ==<br />
===Episode 1===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 12, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~4:11<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE1.jpg|thumb|Tigh tells Gaeta to take a vacation.]]<br />
A blood-covered [[Felix Gaeta]] is in a Raptor adrift in deep space, nine days after the events of "[[Revelations]]". Flashbacks of a list of names being written on a pad, a [[Number Eight]] cutting into her palm, a pair of needle-nose pliers, and a struggle inside the Raptor segue to three days before (six days after "Revelations").<br />
<br />
Over his protests, an exhausted Gaeta is ordered by Colonel [[Saul Tigh]] to take a week's leave aboard the ''[[Zephyr]]'' to recover. On his way to the hangar bay, [[Louis Hoshi|Hoshi]] catches up with him in the hallway, gives him [[morpha]] for his pain, then kisses him goodbye, evincing a romantic relationship. Joining Gaeta on the flight are [[deckhand]] [[Brooks_(RDM)|Brooks]], two Number Eights, and the Raptor shuttle flight crew, Lt. [[List of pilots|J. "Shark" Finnegan]] and [[List of pilots#"Easy" Esrin|"Easy" Esrin]].<br />
<br />
With the Raptor 15 minutes away from the ''Zephyr'', [[DRADIS]] picks up hostile Cylon contacts and the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] is forced to make an emergency jump. The Raptor completes its jump, but discovers that the Fleet is nowhere to be seen.<br />
<br />
===Episode 2===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 15, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~3:42<br />
<br />
[[Image:TFOTE2.JPG|thumb|The occupants of the stranded Raptor.]]<br />
The Raptor crew is trying to communicate with any fleet ships. Brooks begins to pray to [[Poseidon]] and the pilot Eight retorts that they're "a long way from water." The [[FTL]] drive does not respond and they figure out that they have jumped beyond the [[red line]] due to an accidental glitch and have no way of getting back to the fleet. The pilot Eight exclaims that she didn't recognize the star patterns. The other Eight asks Felix if he recognizes her.<br />
<br />
Aboard the Galactica, Hoshi is clearly worried for Felix. He asks Tigh for a Raptor and a pilot to go find the missing Raptor. It has been two days since the Raptor went missing. It turns out that the incoming Cylon fleet was just a false alarm, and the fleet had jumped back to the original coordinates. Tigh considers Hoshi's request and states that he will consult with Admiral [[Adama (RDM)|Adama]] on the matter.<br />
<br />
Back aboard the Raptor, the crew is trying to figure out how long they can stay alive. They only have a 20 1/2 hour air supply, so everyone must limit exertion and try to sleep to prolong the supply. Esrin points out that with low oxygen levels people will become dizzy, experience memory loss, and begin to act irrationally.<br />

'''Raptor 718''' is flown by [[Richard Bayer|Richard "Buster" Bayer]] during a Raptor training exercise ordered by [[Kara Thrace|Captain Thrace]].<br />
<br />
During the exercise, it responds to a distress signal with [[Raptor 314]] within the dark clouds of a binary star system. Not long after, the crews of both Raptors no longer respond and are presumed lost or disabled within the cloud.<br />
<br />
Raptor 718 and its companion Raptor are found by ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'', its crew inside killed and its atmosphere vented into space.<br />
<br />
The Raptors were bait by the Cylons to lure Colonial forces into the cloud, as predicted by Admiral [[William Adama|Adama]]. The Raptors are abandoned after three Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|basestars]] ambush ''Pegasus'', eventually forcing it to retreat ([[The Captain's Hand]]).<br />

<hr />
<div>:''This lists the episodes where central cast members were conspicuously absent from the episodes' proceedings. For a matrix detailing the appearances of supporting and minor characters, see [[List of character appearances (RDM)]]''<br />
<br />
With a few exceptions, the main characters generally appear in all episodes. The main characters are those whose actors are credited in the main title sequence, i.e. '''[[William Adama]]''', '''[[Laura Roslin]]''', '''[[Kara Thrace]]''', '''[[Lee Adama]]''', '''[[Gaius Baltar]]''', '''[[Number Six]]''' and '''[[Number Eight]]'''. For the purposes of this list, a presence of ''any'' Six or Eight model counts as an appearance.<br />
<br />
[[Boomer (RDM)|Boomer]] was a major character up until her assassination in "[[Resistance (episode)|Resistance]]" (the [[resurrection (RDM)|resurrected]] Boomer becoming a minor character). At about that time the Eight later known as [[Athena (RDM)|Athena]] becomes a more central part of the main story.<br />
<br />
The primary [[Number Six]] character was, in the first two seasons, [[Virtual Six]]. [[Caprica Six]] becomes more prominent in Season Three. [[Gina Inviere]] plays a central role in "[[Pegasus (episode)|Pegasus]]", "[[Resurrection Ship, Part I|Resurrection Ship, Parts I]] and [[Resurrection Ship, Part II|II]]" and "[[Razor]]". Later [[Caprica Six]] and [[Natalie]] have significant screentime.<br />

"'''The Face of the Enemy'''" webisode series focuses on [[Felix Gaeta]], who is accompanied by a handful of humans and two [[Number 8|Number Eights]] on a [[Raptor 718|Raptor]], during which they mysteriously begin to die, one by one. The events of this story take place between six and nine days after "[[Revelations]]".<br />
<br />
== Summary ==<br />
===Episode 1===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 12, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~4:11<br />
<br />
A blood-covered [[Felix Gaeta]] is in a Raptor adrift in deep space, nine days after the events of "[[Revelations]]". Flashbacks of a list of names being written on a pad, a [[Number Eight]] cutting into her palm, a pair of needle-nose pliers, and a struggle inside the Raptor segue to three days before (six days after "Revelations").<br />
<br />
Over his protests, an exhausted Gaeta is ordered by Colonel [[Saul Tigh]] to take a week's leave aboard the ''[[Zephyr]]'' to recover. On his way to the hangar bay, [[Louis Hoshi|Hoshi]] catches up with him in the hallway, gives him [[morpha]] for his pain, then kisses him goodbye, evincing a romantic relationship. Joining Gaeta on the flight are [[deckhand]] [[Brooks_(RDM)|Brooks]], two Number Eights, and the Raptor shuttle flight crew, Lt. [[List of pilots|J. "Shark" Finnegan]] and [[List of pilots#"Easy" Esrin|"Easy" Esrin]].<br />
<br />
With the Raptor 15 minutes away from the ''Zephyr'', [[DRADIS]] picks up hostile Cylon contacts and the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] is forced to make an emergency jump. The Raptor completes its jump, but discovers that the Fleet is nowhere to be seen.<br />
<br />
===Episode 2===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 15, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~3:42<br />
<br />
The Raptor crew is trying to communicate with any fleet ships. Brooks begins to pray to [[Poseidon]] and the pilot Eights retorts that they're "a long way from water." The [[FTL]] drive does not respond and they figure out that they have jumped beyond the [[red line]] due to an accidental glitch and have no way of getting back to the fleet. The pilot Eight exclaims that she didn't recognize the star patterns. The other Eight asks Felix if he recognizes her.<br />
<br />
Aboard the Galactica, Hoshi is clearly worried for Felix. He asks Tigh for a Raptor and a pilot to go find the missing Raptor. It has been two days since the Raptor went missing. It turns out that the incoming Cylon fleet was just a false alarm, and the fleet had jumped back to the original coordinates. Tigh considers Hoshi's request and states that he will consult with Admiral [[Adama (RDM)|Adama]] on the matter.<br />
<br />
Back aboard the Raptor, the crew is trying to figure out how long they can stay alive. They only have a 20 1/2 hour air supply, so everyone must limit exertion and try to sleep to prolong the supply. Esrin point out that with low oxygen that people will become dizzy, experience memory loss, and begin to act irrationally.<br />

== Notes ==<br />
* Felix Gaeta has a metal leg replacement.<br />
* The two Number Eights are nicknamed "Sweet Eight" and "Pilot Eight" in the commentary by Jane Espenson. "Pilot Eight" is in a Cylon flightsuit.<br />
<br />
== Analysis ==<br />
* The fleet has left the devastated planet Earth they found in "[[Revelations]]" and is again on the run from [[Cavil]]'s faction of Cylons. <br />
* The rebel Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|Basestar]] is still with the fleet.<br />
* Saul Tigh has returned to duty.<br />
* It does not appear to be an unusual occurrence for there to be Number Eights on-board the ''Galactica'', or for them to be taking a Raptor ride to the ''Zephyr''.<br />

'''Raptor 718''' is flown by [[Richard Bayer|Richard "Buster" Bayer]] during a Raptor training exercise ordered by [[Kara Thrace|Captain Thrace]].<br />
<br />
During the exercise, it responds to a distress signal with [[Raptor 314]] within the dark clouds of a binary star system. Not long after, the crews of both Raptors no longer respond and are presumed lost or disabled within the cloud.<br />
<br />
Raptor 718 and its companion Raptor are found by ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'', its crew inside killed and its atmosphere vented into space.<br />
<br />
The Raptors were bait by the Cylons to lure Colonial forces into the cloud, as predicted by Admiral [[William Adama|Adama]]. The Raptors are abandoned after three Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|basestars]] ambush ''Pegasus'', eventually forcing it to retreat ([[The Captain's Hand]]).<br />

Raptor 718 is flown by Lt. [[List of Pilots#J. "Shark" Finnegan|J.

When the fleet jumps away due to a false [[DRADIS]] alarm, the Raptor accidentally jumps beyond the [[red line]] and is stranded with four humans and two [[Number Eight]] Cylons aboard with a depleting oxygen supply.<br />

The '''''Zephyr''''' is an [[FTL]]-capable civilian passenger liner that manages escape the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|destruction of the Twelve Colonies]] to join the [[the Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] ([[Miniseries]]). <br />
<br />
During the events of President [[Laura Roslin]]'s incarceration, all twelve delegates from the [[Quorum of Twelve]] are en route from this ship to ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'' ([[Fragged]]).<br />
<br />
Lt. [[Felix Gaeta]] discovers fraudulent ballots for President Roslin in ''Zephyr'''s ballot box during her ill-fated re-election attempt versus Vice-President [[Gaius Baltar]]. The ballots are later rejected and Baltar is declared the winner ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
After the discovery and settlement of [[New Caprica]], the ship is one of the few to remain in orbit (its shape may make it impractical or impossible to land). It manages to escape the [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] blockade of the planet along with ''Galactica'' and ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
The ''Zephyr'' is among the first ships taken through the star cluster towards the [[algae planet]] ([[The Passage]]) and is among the first ships to jump into the [[Ionian nebula]] before losing power ([[Crossroads, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
Baltar's first lawyer, [[Alan Hughes]], comes from the ''Zephyr''. Racetrack complains that she has to shuttle him between there and ''Galactica'' ([[The Son Also Rises]]).<br />
<br />
The ship is severely damaged by two missile strikes in the [[Battle of the Ionian Nebula]], but survives and is still capable of flight ([[He That Believeth in Me]]). A few days later, [[:image:Rebuilding the Space Park.jpg|repairs]] to the damaged portion of the ring begin ([[Six of One]]).<br />
<br />
Approximately two months later, the ring section has been largely repaired and is spinning, but only on occasion, possibly because spinning the ring might cause more damage again ([[Guess What's Coming to Dinner?]]).<br />
<br />
The ''Zephyr'' is amongst the group of ships that successfully arrive at [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]] ([[Revelations]]).<br />
<br />
Lt. Felix Gaeta is on his way to the ''Zephyr'' for some R&R along with two [[Number Eight]]s, [[deckhand]] [[Brooks (RDM)|Brooks]], Lt. [[List of pilots#J. "Shark" Finnegan|J. "Shark" Finnegan]] and [[List of pilots#"Easy" Esrin|"Easy" Esrin]]([[The Face of the Enemy]]).<br />
<br />
== Additional Information ==<br />
<br />
:''The following information was previously available on the SciFi Channel website. It should be noted that information from that website, while being official, is unreliable and may be contradicted on screen:''<br />
*The ''Zephyr'', referred to as the ''Space Park'', is of [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Libris|Libran]] registry.<br />
*Its enormous ring section was designed in the days when artificial gravity was too expensive to utilize on a commercial ship of that size. <br />
*This passenger liner design was so successful that it was adapted for scientific and military uses by replacing passenger accommodation with laboratories, auxiliary power generators, and computer cores. <br />
<br />
== Notes ==<br />
<br />
* The ship is likely named after the Greek god of the western wind, [[wikipedia:Anemoi|Zephyrus]].<br />
*The repair of the ''Zephyr'' is the first time that large scale repair operations to the outside of a ship within the Fleet can be seen on screen.<br />
*It appears that the ''Zephyr'' is one in a series of ships that has undergone a design retcon (others include the [[Viper Mark VII]], the Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|basestar]] and the Cylon [[Raider (RDM)|Raider]]/[[Heavy Raider]]) in the third season. The new version appears the be more weathered - with far fewer "clean" lines than the original model - and bears a thickened neck section and a jagged antenna-like device that replaces the needle nose of the original.<br />

== Notes ==<br />
* Felix Gaeta has a metal leg replacement.<br />
* The two Number Eights are nicknamed "Sweet Eight" and "Pilot Eight" in the commentary by Jane Espenson. "Pilot Eight" is in a Cylon flightsuit.<br />
<br />
== Analysis ==<br />
* The fleet has left the devastated planet Earth they found in "[[Revelations]]" and is again on the run from the hostile faction of Cylons. <br />
* The rebel Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|Basestar]] is still with the fleet.<br />
* Saul Tigh has returned to duty.<br />
* It does not appear to be an unusual occurrence for there to be Number Eights on-board the ''Galactica'', or for them to be taking a Raptor ride to the ''Zephyr''.<br />

<hr />
<div>:''For a list of [[Colonial Warrior]]s, the [[Viper (TOS)|original Viper]] pilots seen in the [[Original Series]], see [[List of Warriors]].''<br />
<br />
:''This list was created to keep track of ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'s'' current and former [[Viper (RDM)|Viper]] pilots, [[Raptor]] pilots and [[ECO]]s, and includes members of the crew of ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' as well. When mentioned-only characters are linked to a separate article, they are either repeatedly mentioned, have some significance despite not being seen or the article includes a note about their name.''<br />
<br />
[[Image:Final_Cut-Thin_Line_of_Blue.jpg|thumb|300px|Pilots and other enlisted in a recreation room on ''Galactica.'']]<br />
'''Pilots''' are officers in the [[Colonial Fleet (RDM)|Colonial Fleet]] trained and qualified to operate a [[Viper (RDM)|Viper]] fighter or a [[Raptor]] multipurpose vehicle.<br />
<br />
Pilot candidates, or "nuggets", normally start training in [[Computers in the Re-imagined Series#Viper Flight Simulators|simulators]], but after the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]], ''Galactica'''s nuggets went from classroom straight into live aircraft until ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' (with its on-board flight simulators) joined the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]]. Once nuggets complete their basic flight and combat training, they are known as "[[rook]]s".<br />
<br />
A flight-qualified pilot wears basic [[Insignia_(RDM)#Pilot_wings|pilot wings]] on the uniform's left breast. Senior-rated pilots (e.g. [[William Adama]], [[Saul Tigh]]) wear a variation with outstretched wings.<br />
<br />
Pilot wings are a permanently-awarded skills badge; they do not necessarily indicate active flight status, only that the wearer has successfully qualified as a pilot. Officers who have moved into non-flying positions, such as [[Aaron Kelly]] and [[Felix Gaeta]], continue to wear them.<br />
<br />
A [[flight suit]], which protects a pilot during a decompression emergency, is standard apparel for all pilots.<br />
<br />

The following pilots' names can be seen on duty rosters in the [[Pilot ready rooms|pilots' ready room]] or on other documents following the second exodus.

Specialist '''Brooks''' is a deckhand aboard Galactica.<br />
<br />
He boards a [[Raptor]] bound for the [[Zephyr]] in order to perform some maintenance duties. He is accompanied by Lt. [[Gaeta|Felix Gaeta]], two [[Number_8|Number Eights]], Lt. [[List_of_pilots|J.

The '''Zephyr''', is an [[FTL]]-capable civilian passenger liner that manages escape the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|destruction of the Twelve Colonies]] to join the [[the Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] ([[Miniseries]]). <br />
<br />
During the events of President [[Laura Roslin]]'s incarceration, all twelve delegates from the [[Quorum of Twelve]] are en route from this ship to ''[[Galactica]]'' ([[Fragged]]).<br />
<br />
Lt. [[Felix Gaeta]] discovers fraudulent ballots for President Roslin in ''Zephyr'''s ballot box during her ill-fated re-election attempt versus Vice-President [[Gaius Baltar]]. The ballots are later rejected and Baltar is declared the winner ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
After the discovery and settlement of [[New Caprica]], the ship is one of the few to remain in orbit (its shape may make it impractical or impossible to land). It manages to escape the [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] blockade of the planet along with battlestars ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'' and ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
The ''Zephyr'' is among the first ships taken through the star cluster towards the [[algae planet]] ([[The Passage]]) and is among the first ships to jump into the [[Ionian nebula]] before losing power ([[Crossroads, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
Baltar's first lawyer, [[Alan Hughes]], comes from the ''Zephyr''. Racetrack complains that she has to shuttle him between there and ''Galactica'' ([[The Son Also Rises]]).<br />
<br />
The ship is severely damaged by two missile strikes in the [[Battle of the Ionian Nebula]], but survives and is still capable of flight ([[He That Believeth in Me]]). A few days later, [[:image:Rebuilding the Space Park.jpg|repairs]] to the damaged portion of the ring begin ([[Six of One]]).<br />
<br />
Approximately two months later, the ring section has been largely repaired and is spinning, but only on occasion, possibly because spinning the ring might cause more damage again ([[Guess What's Coming to Dinner?]]).<br />
<br />
The ''Zephyr'' is amongst the group of ships that successfully arrive at [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]] ([[Revelations]]).<br />
<br />
Lt. Felix Gaeta is on his way to the ''Zephyr'' for some R&R along with two [[Number_8|Number Eights]], [[deckhand]] [[Brooks (RDM)|Brooks]], Lt. [[List_of_pilots|J. "Shark" Finnegan]], and an unnamed co-pilot/[[ECO]]([[The Face of the Enemy]]).<br />
<br />
== Additional Information ==<br />
<br />
:''The following information was previously available on the SciFi Channel website. It should be noted that information from that website, while being official, is unreliable and may be contradicted on screen:''<br />
*The ''Zephyr'', referred to as the ''Space Park'', is of [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Libris|Libran]] registry.<br />
*Its enormous ring section was designed in the days when artificial gravity was too expensive to utilize on a commercial ship of that size. <br />
*This passenger liner design was so successful that it was adapted for scientific and military uses by replacing passenger accommodation with laboratories, auxiliary power generators, and computer cores. <br />
<br />
== Notes ==<br />
<br />
* The ship is likely named after the Greek god of the western wind, [[wikipedia:Anemoi|Zephyrus]].<br />
*The repair of the ''Zephyr'' is the first time that large scale repair operations to the outside of a ship within the Fleet can be seen on screen.<br />
*It appears that the ''Zephyr'' is one in a series of ships that has undergone a design retcon (others include the [[Viper Mark VII]], the Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|Basestar]], and the Cylon [[Raider (RDM)|Raider]]/[[Heavy Raider]]) in the third season. The new version appears the be more weathered - with far fewer "clean" lines than the original model - and bears a thickened neck section and a jagged antenna-like device that replaces the needle nose of the original.<br />

Mr. '''Brooks''' is a station manager for [[United Broadcasting Company]] Television studios. Mr. Brooks offers [[Jamie Hamilton]] a shot at a job, but only if she can secure an interview with Dr. [[Donald Mortinson]] ([[Galactica Discovers Earth, Part I]]). She secures the interview and lands the job ([[Galactica Discovers Earth, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
Mr. Brooks begins to grow weary of Hamilton's tendency to stray from her assignments, assigning a cameraman, [[Hal Fredricks]], to her in an attempt to keep her on track. She is sent to cover a baseball camp run by former baseball superstar [[Billy Eheres]] ([[Spaceball]]).<br />

"'''The Face of the Enemy'''" webisode series focuses on [[Felix Gaeta]], who is accompanied by a handful of humans and two [[Number 8|Number Eights]] on a [[Raptor]], during which they mysteriously begin to die, one by one. The events of this story take place between six and nine days after "[[Revelations]]".<br />
<br />
== Summary ==<br />
===Episode 1===<br />
<br />
* Release date: December 12, 2008<br />
* Running time: ~4:11<br />
<br />
The webisode begins with Lt. [[Gaeta]] covered in blood in a [[Raptor]] while drifting in space, nine days after the end of "[[Revelations]]". Images flash of him frantically writing down a list of names on a pad, a Number Eight cutting into her hand, someone holding a pair of needle-nose pliers, and a struggle amongst the occupants. It then flashes back to three days before this scenario (six days after "[[Revelations]]").<br />
<br />
Gaeta is ordered to take a vacation by [[Saul Tigh]], despite his protests. He is told to take a shuttle to the ''[[Zephyr]]'' for some R&R. He runs into [[L. Hoshi|Hoshi]] in the hallway, who gives him [[morpha]]. They kiss goodbye, and it appears that they are in a romantic relationship. Gaeta is accompanied by two Number Eights, [[deckhand]] [[Brooks_(RDM)|Brooks]], Lt. [[List of pilots|J. "Shark" Finnegan]], and an unnamed co-pilot/[[ECO]]. They are less than 15 minutes away from the ''Zephyr'' when hostile Cylon contacts are detected on [[DRADIS]], forcing the fleet to make an emergency jump. When the Raptor jumps, they find themselves separated from the rest of the fleet.<br />

The '''Zephyr''' is an [[FTL]]-capable civilian passenger liner that manages escape the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|destruction of the Twelve Colonies]] to join the [[the Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] ([[Miniseries]]). <br />
<br />
During the events of President [[Laura Roslin]]'s incarceration, all twelve delegates from the [[Quorum of Twelve]] are en route from this ship to ''[[Galactica]]'' ([[Fragged]]).<br />
<br />
Lt. [[Felix Gaeta]] discovers fraudulent ballots for President Roslin in ''Zephyr'''s ballot box during her ill-fated re-election attempt versus Vice-President [[Gaius Baltar]]. The ballots are later rejected and Baltar is declared the winner ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
After the discovery and settlement of [[New Caprica]], the ship is one of the few to remain in orbit (its shape may make it impractical or impossible to land). It manages to escape the [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] blockade of the planet along with battlestars ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'' and ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
The ''Zephyr'' is among the first ships taken through the star cluster towards the [[algae planet]] ([[The Passage]]) and is among the first ships to jump into the [[Ionian nebula]] before losing power ([[Crossroads, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
Baltar's first lawyer, [[Alan Hughes]], comes from the ''Zephyr''. Racetrack complains that she has to shuttle him between there and ''Galactica'' ([[The Son Also Rises]]).<br />
<br />
The ship is severely damaged by two missile strikes in the [[Battle of the Ionian Nebula]], but survives and is still capable of flight ([[He That Believeth in Me]]). A few days later, [[:image:Rebuilding the Space Park.jpg|repairs]] to the damaged portion of the ring begin ([[Six of One]]).<br />
<br />
Approximately two months later, the ring section has been largely repaired and is spinning, but only on occasion, possibly because spinning the ring might cause more damage again ([[Guess What's Coming to Dinner?]]).<br />
<br />
The ''Zephyr'' is amongst the group of ships that successfully arrive at [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]] ([[Revelations]]).<br />
<br />
Lt. Felix Gaeta is on his way to the ''Zephyr'' for some R&R along with two [[Number_8|Number Eights]], [[deckhand]] [[Brooks (RDM)|Brooks]], Lt. [[List_of_pilots|J. "Shark" Finnegan]], and an unnamed co-pilot/[[ECO]]([[The Face of the Enemy]]).<br />
<br />
== Additional Information ==<br />
<br />
:''The following information was previously available on the SciFi Channel website. It should be noted that information from that website, while being official, is unreliable and may be contradicted on screen:''<br />
*The ''Zephyr'' is of [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Libris|Libran]] registry.<br />
*Its enormous ring section was designed in the days when artificial gravity was too expensive to utilize on a commercial ship of that size. <br />
*This passenger liner design was so successful that it was adapted for scientific and military uses by replacing passenger accommodation with laboratories, auxiliary power generators, and computer cores. <br />
<br />
== Notes ==<br />
<br />
* The ship is likely named after the Greek god of the western wind, [[wikipedia:Anemoi|Zephyrus]].<br />
*The repair of the ''Zephyr'' is the first time that large scale repair operations to the outside of a ship within the Fleet can be seen on screen.<br />
*It appears that the ''Zephyr'' is one in a series of ships that has undergone a design retcon (others include the [[Viper Mark VII]], the Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|Basestar]], and the Cylon [[Raider (RDM)|Raider]]/[[Heavy Raider]]) in the third season. The new version appears the be more weathered - with far fewer "clean" lines than the original model - and bears a thickened neck section and a jagged antenna-like device that replaces the needle nose of the original.<br />

<br />
Specialist '''Anthony Figurski''' is a [[deckhand]] aboard ''[[Galactica]]''.<br />
<br />
He and the other deckhands throw a welcome back party for [[Cally Henderson]] when she is released from the brig, and he later assists in the construction of the [[Blackbird]], being the first to help Chief [[Galen Tyrol|Tyrol]] and signing his name on the hull at its commissioning ceremony ([[Flight of the Phoenix]]).<br />
<br />
Figurski is present at the ship's boxing tournament and talks with Chief Tyrol about Viper maintenance ([[Unfinished Business]]).<br />
<br />
Figurski may be considered a slower yet reliable worker. Chief Tyrol makes a humorous comment to Figurski on whether the deckhand was going to appear as if he were actually working that day. When Figurski complains about Admiral Adama's speed in signing a work order authorizing a carbon dioxide scrubber repair that would take up to a day to complete, Tyrol teases him once more, quipping that it would take Figurski a day in any case ([[A Day in the Life]]).<br />
<br />
After having a brief confrontation with [[Diana Seelix|Seelix]] about her plans to become a pilot, and overseeing the transfer of some of [[Dogsville]]'s residents to the [[refinery ship]], he participates in Chief Tyrol's short-lived workers' strike ([[Dirty Hands]]).<br />
<br />
Figurski is among the deckhands to whom Chief Tyrol shows the bomb discovered under a [[Raptor]] carrying Lee Adama and [[Romo Lampkin]]. He seems to agree with Cally Tyrol's suspicion that a Cylon infiltrator was responsible for the bombing attempt. Later he hands Lampkin a case of files from ''Colonial One'', shortly before a second attack wounds the attorney ([[The Son Also Rises]]). <br />
<br />
Figurski attends the religious service for Cally Tyrol and is seated next to Galen Tyrol during the ceremony. Later, Figurski and Tyrol look over [[Margaret Edmonson]]'s crashed Raptor. The technical failure is attributed to Tyrol's failure to swap out a damaged component. Figurski offers to do Tyrol's work when the Chief becomes irritated and angry over his error, but Tyrol dismisses him ([[Escape Velocity]]).<br />
<br />
== Notes ==<br />
*The credits for "[[Flight of the Phoenix]]" and "[[Revelations]]" give his rank as specialist, 3rd class. However, according to a blog entry by Ronald D. Moore, this rank does not exist within the [[Military Ranks (RDM)|rank structure]] of the Colonial Fleet. While the hierarchy the writers use may very well have changed since then, there are no other indications of a distinction between specialists. His rank insignia cannot be identified clearly in any episode, but the costuming department appears to to have produced only one specialist insignia.<br />

The '''Zephyr''' is an [[FTL]]-capable civilian passenger liner that manages escape the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|destruction of the Twelve Colonies]] to join the [[the Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] ([[Miniseries]]). <br />
<br />
During the events of President [[Laura Roslin]]'s incarceration, all twelve delegates from the [[Quorum of Twelve]] are en route from this ship to ''[[Galactica]]'' ([[Fragged]]).<br />
<br />
Lt. [[Felix Gaeta]] discovers fraudulent ballots for President Roslin in ''Zephyr'''s ballot box during her ill-fated re-election attempt versus Vice-President [[Gaius Baltar]]. The ballots are later rejected and Baltar is declared the winner ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
After the discovery and settlement of [[New Caprica]], the ship is one of the few to remain in orbit (its shape may make it impractical or impossible to land). It manages to escape the [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] blockade of the planet along with battlestars ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'' and ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
The ''Zephyr'' is among the first ships taken through the star cluster towards the [[algae planet]] ([[The Passage]]) and is among the first ships to jump into the [[Ionian nebula]] before losing power ([[Crossroads, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
Baltar's first lawyer, [[Alan Hughes]], comes from the ''Zephyr''. Racetrack complains that she has to shuttle him between there and ''Galactica'' ([[The Son Also Rises]]).<br />
<br />
The ship is severely damaged by two missile strikes in the [[Battle of the Ionian Nebula]], but survives and is still capable of flight ([[He That Believeth in Me]]). A few days later, [[:image:Rebuilding the Space Park.jpg|repairs]] to the damaged portion of the ring begin ([[Six of One]]).<br />
<br />
Approximately two months later, the ring section has been largely repaired and is spinning, but only on occasion, possibly because spinning the ring might cause more damage again ([[Guess What's Coming to Dinner?]]).<br />
<br />
The ''Zephyr'' is amongst the group of ships that successfully arrive at [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]] ([[Revelations]]).<br />
<br />
Lt. [[Gaeta|Felix Gaeta]] is on his way to the ''Zephyr'' for some R&R along with two [[Number_8|Number 8s]], [[deckhand]] [[Brooks (RDM)|Brooks]], Lt. [[List_of_pilots|J. "Shark" Finnegan]], and an unnamed co-pilot/[[ECO]]([[The Face of the Enemy]]).<br />

== Additional Information ==<br />
<br />
:''The following information was previously available on the SciFi Channel website. It should be noted that information from that website, while being official, is unreliable and may be contradicted on screen:''<br />
*The ''Zephyr'' is of [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Libris|Libran]] registry.<br />
*Its enormous ring section was designed in the days when artificial gravity was too expensive to utilize on a commercial ship of that size. <br />
*This passenger liner design was so successful that it was adapted for scientific and military uses by replacing passenger accommodation with laboratories, auxiliary power generators, and computer cores. <br />
<br />
== Notes ==<br />
<br />
* The ship is likely named after the Greek god of the western wind, [[wikipedia:Anemoi|Zephyrus]].<br />
*The repair of the ''Zephyr'' is the first time that large scale repair operations to the outside of a ship within the Fleet can be seen on screen.<br />
*It appears that the ''Zephyr'' is one in a series of ships that has undergone a design retcon (others include the [[Viper Mark VII]], the Cylon [[Basestar (RDM)|Basestar]], and the Cylon [[Raider (RDM)|Raider]]/[[Heavy Raider]]) in the third season. The new version appears the be more weathered - with far fewer "clean" lines than the original model - and bears a thickened neck section and a jagged antenna-like device that replaces the needle nose of the original.<br />
