Overview[edit]
- A figure from Adama's past returns to haunt him. His return raises questions about why the Cylons launched their initial attack against the Twelve Colonies. [1]
Summary[edit]
Questions[edit]
- Does the arrival of someone from Adama's past mean that additional survivors of the Twelve Colonies will be rescued or found?
- According to advanced descriptions, it appears that this Colonial was taken prisoner well before the Fall of the Twelve Colonies, and may be an exceptional case.[citation needed]
Analysis[edit]
Notes[edit]
- A revelation about something truly egregious and illegal that Admiral William Adama was guilty of doing during the days leading up to the Fall of the Twelve Colonies, and how he has kept the revelation of that incident from rearing its head. An event transpires that brings it all home with a vengeance, and the ramifications are significant. (David Eick revealed this in an interview with iFMagazine.)
- According to an interview with David Eick, this is probably episode 7 of Season 3. A contemporary of Adama's and Tigh's from the past arrives on Galactica with a very dark secret about Adama.
- In another interview with Eick, he revealed that this episode "involves a human POW who’s been trapped on the Cylon base ship for the last four years, and when we meet him we realize it’s a great homecoming for him because he was one of Adama’s pilots. But by the middle of the episode you realize the reason why this guy was taken prisoner was because Adama shot his ship down. And it becomes sort of an episode about why such a thing would have happened and how Adama begins to believe that on some level he might have been responsible for provoking the Cylon attack on the Twelve Colonies."
- According to Ron Moore at the BSG Comic-Con panel, Carl Lumbly will guest star in this episode as "Bulldog", an old pilot of Adama's who was taken as a POW in the war.
- A spoiler image shows the CIC of the battlestar Valkyrie.
