Overview
- Admiral William Adama questions whether or not Sharon Valerii's pregnancy should be aborted. Meanwhile Roslin's health declines rapidly as a pro-Cylon peace group attempts to sow civil disobedience within the Fleet.
Summary
- President Laura Roslin is brought on board Galactica. She is near death and has, at best, days to live.
- Captain Kara Thrace and Lieutenant Louanne Katraine are conducting Viper tests. During a test of the Viper's projectile systems, Kat's port turret is destroyed and a piece of it impacts on Thrace's cockpit. Thrace requests priority landing; both Vipers land.
- Cally comes across three rounds of faulty ammunition, ammunition that is lighter than normal. Thus when two rounds collide an explosion occurs. Tyrol highly suspects sabotage.
- The investigation leads Lee Adama and Kara Thrace to a civilian worker who manufactures the ammo. When she is apprehended, she declares her alleigence to a pacifist organization that wants peace with the Cylons.
On Caprica Prior to the Cylon Attack
- Roslyn finds out she has cancer
- Roslyn meets with President Adar to discuss a teacher's strike, and his response.
- Roslyn meets with the leader of the teacher's union, and strikes an agreement.
- Adar disagrees with Roslyn's methods and results, and asks for her resignation.
- Roslyn then leaves for Galactica's decommisioning ceremony, telling Adar that "If you want my resignation when I get back, be prepared to fight for it."
Questions
Analysis
- At the end, we are shown that the bomb Dr. Baltar gave the resistance was the nuclear warhead he was given to create his Cylon Detector.
- Sharon baby's blood was used to aparently destroy the cancerous masses in Roslyn's system. The procedure to abort Sharon's baby was not preformed.
Notes
- This episode takes place between 189 and 191 days after the Cylon attack on the colonies.
- Lee Adama is once again a Captain, and has been reinstated as Galactica's CAG.
- Gina is apparently a member of the pro-Cylon resistance. The other members of the resistance are unaware she is a Humano-Cylon.
- Roslyn apparently was in an intimate relationship with President Adar.
- Roslyn sees Dr. Baltar in an intimate moment with Number Six on Caprica, prior to the attacks.
