Planning
A meeting of the commanders is convened and a plan is made to intercept Cylon Tankers to provide fuel for the fleet. Cain agrees, boasting that his warriors would be glad to pass along their experience to Galactica's warriors.
Execution of the operation
During pre-launch, Sheba discovers that Cain has joined the mission, to her surprise and concern. During the mission they are intercepted by a Cylon patrol. Blue Squadron seems at the mercy of the Cylons until Silver Spar Squadron engages. Cain orders Blue Squadron to pursue while he goes off to take care of the tankers.
Cain destroys the tankers against orders, and tells a disbelieving Apollo that he was firing at a Cylon fighter. (The Living Legend, Part I)
