Overview

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. (From an interview with David Eick 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 something Adama did in the past.

Summary

Questions

  • Does the arrival of someone from Adama's past mean that additional survivors of the Twelve Colonies will be rescued or found?
