The combined forces of the Colonial Warriors and the Cylon Raiders fend off Count Iblis' fiendish armada. But Iblis is determined to have his vengeance against the enigmatic Seraphs, even if he has to sacrifice every living soul on the fleet to do it! As the battle reaches its epic conclusion, the Galactica embarks in a surprising new direction![1]

Analysis

Questions

  • What other powers does Iblis have at his disposal?
  • Do the Seraphs have other boltholes? Other ships?
  • How was their Ship of Lights dispatched so easily?
  • Will the Imperious Leader agree to a lasting peace with the humans?

Noteworthy Dialogue

  • Baltar comments on Apollo's reaction to Iblis' possession of Adama:
    Baltar: Ah! With all the ridiculous drama that takes place on this vessel, it's a wonder we didn't destroy them long ago!
  • The Seraphs appear on Galactica's core command:
    Seraphs: We are here. We are among you.
    Apollo: Why? Why did you come? You had to know Iblis was trying to trap you.
    Seraphs: Yes. But knowing we would be in danger changed nothing. We were waiting. Before coming to your ship. We waited for Iblis to be purged.
    Apollo: So Iblis is gone then?
    Seraphs: Not far. Gone for now.
    Adama: But your ship... the Meclon's destroyed it.
    Seraphs: Our ship... will show you the way.
  • Iblis returns to the planet and resurrects his long dead followers:
    Come to me... come forth and serve me... serve our day of reckoning! Now is your time... time to seek revenge against those who exiled you. I shall lead you on this quest! The Seraphs have shown their weakness. Taking up with the humans. Hiding amongst them. But I will hide my true face no more!
    Let your spirits ignite the hearts of the dead ships orbiting this world... let a fleet of our own take shape! Plot a pursuit course. Chase the Galactica down. We will bring them to ruination!
