Despite [[Chapter Eleven - Sinon Quade|breaking their word]] to [[Clothos]] by order of [[Lucinda Cain]], Clothos follows through with their part of the agreement to return ''[[Galactica (Deadlock)|Galactica]]'' and her surviving crew to [[Colonial Fleet (Deadlock)|Colonial Fleet]].

They find ''Galactica'' docked at the Terminal along with various derelict civilian crafts in the surrounding area.

Agathon advises that her crew needs time to board ''Galactica'' and leave the station.

Praetor Agathon's crew readies ''Galactica'' as a Cylon fleet jumps in and engage, while Agathon herself remains behind on Caprica Terminal to investigate something that they have come across.
