Overview[edit]

The Cylons have occupied the human settlement of New Caprica, and it's been three months since the Galactica, the Pegasus, and a handful of ships escaped into deep space. But the fight is not over. On New Caprica, a resistance has begun — and despite having only a handful of untested pilots at his command, Admiral Adama is committed to risking everything on a daring attack to rescue the people he left behind. [1]

Summary[edit]

Questions[edit]

Analysis[edit]

Notes[edit]

  • In an interview with the Seattle Times, Ron Moore has confirmed that the first episode of season three will not take place immediately after the previous season finale (like "Scattered" did), but skip ahead a few more months to when the Cylon occupation is in full swing, and an insurgency has already developed.
  • According to series composer Bear McCreary's official website blog, the first two episodes of season 3 will premiere back-to-back as a two hour TV movie
    • This was further confirmed in Ron Moore's blog on July 27th, 2006:
'As it currently stands, we will be opening Season Three with a two-hour premiere of what were originally two stand-alone episodes, "Occupation" and "Precipice" ("Occuprice," as it were) then resume airing normal one hours with "Exodus Part One."'
  • An early publicity photo for this episode shows what is ostensibly Caprica-Valerii being sworn into the Colonial Fleet by Admiral Adama, with Kat and Helo in attendance. This strongly suggests that Valerii has proven her worth and trust to Adama and Galactica--and that available hands are definitely few. It may also confuse viewers as to which Valerii is which, unless Caprica-Valerii chooses a different callsign than "Boomer."
