Overview[edit]
- Pursuing the Resurrection Hub at the whim of the Hybrid, a team of Viper pilots and Cylon rebels become uneasy collaborators as they formulate a battle plan to un-box the Threes and destroy Cylon resurrection forever. Meanwhile, Roslin and Baltar try desperately to communicate with the panicking Hybrid and Helo discovers a disturbing characteristic within one of the Eights.

Notes[edit]
Analysis[edit]
- Baltar, now having found a way to absolve all guilt for any action, takes his scheming to a new extremes while attempting to make an ally out of the Centurions.
- The dichotomy of experienced time when performing an FTL jump (it happens both instantaneously and is drawn out for what seems to be a long time) appears to be yet another avenue for the Lords of Kobol to interact with humans. Other examples are dreams, a hypnotic state, and between death and resurrection.
Questions[edit]
- Why do the Cylons have only one Resurrection Hub and the implied inability to build another?
- Are the Cylons capable of building a new Hub, and if so, how long it would it take them?
- Does Boomer make it off of the Hub before it is destroyed?
- Is there time to resurrect Cavil?
- How many other Eights have accessed Athena's memories, and how will this affect her relationship with Helo?
Official Statements[edit]
Noteworthy Dialogue[edit]
- Adama reading to Roslin during her vision:
- "'Then I dug into the stump and pulled rocks from the ground until my fingers bled. I collected seeds from the few fruits the island offered and planted them in long straight furrows like the ranks of soldiers. When I finished I looked at what I had done. I did not see a garden; I saw a scar. This island had saved my life and I had done it no service.'"
- Roslin and Adama tenderly greeting each other in the Basestar hangar deck:
- Roslin [Embracing Adama]: "I love you."
- Adama [Breaking the embrace; looks into her eyes]: "About time."
