Overview
- Not available at this time.
Summary
- The newly revived Prsident Roslin feels that she has fallen behind in her work since her absense, as internal trade of supplies within the fleet is in shambles. She has a meeting in Adama's quarters with Admiral Adama, Commander Fisk, and Dr. Baltar about shutting down rampant black market trading that is going on in the fleet.
- When he arrives back in his quarters on Pegasus (Cain's old quarters) Fisk is garroted by several black market gangsters.
- Apollo meanwhile has been severely depressed ever since he was nearly killed when the Blackbird was destroyed. He's begun a relationship woman named Gianne on Cloud 9, who has a young daughter named Payo. Gianne soon has to resort to working as a prostitute to get basic food and medical supplies (Lee seems to have been going out with her since a little before this, but she's been paying her cubits when he stays there. He stil seems to want an actual relationship with her).
- We learn in flashbacks that Apollo's girlfriend on Caprica became pregnant, but he became afraid and didn't know if he should commit or not. She got angry and stormed off, then he ran away. This happened just prior to the Cylon attack, and she is presumed dead.
- Adama visits a woman from his past from Caprica, Shevon. It is not entirely clear what their relationship is, but in the past it was romantic. Phelan, leader of the criminal group, suggests that she is a prostitute.
- Adama hopes to get Shevon and a young girl in her care, Paya -- who may be Adama's daughter by a woman named Gianne -- safely to Galactica. But Phelan and his men bomb their way into Shevon's quarters and abduct them all. (Source:GateWorld)
