Pivotal Plot Points

• According to an interview by Katee Sackhoff on Subject2Discussion.com on January 3rd, 2006, Starbuck's "missing ovaries" will be mentioned before Season 2 ends and be a pivotal theme to Season 3.
• At the official Xena 2006 Convention, Lucy Lawless stated that: "(They) turned around and asked her "Do you want to play God?" There is a character who sets herself up as God, and Lucy would likely play her. Her theory is that there's nowhere to go after playing Xena but to playing God! But none of this is a done deal, she cautions, because they're still working out the logistics". It is known, however, that Lawless will be in ten of the Season 3 episodes.
• According to Ron D. Moore's podcast of the Captain's Hand, Apollo will continue to be the Commander of the Pegasus well into Season 3.
• There will be some flashbacks that deal with events that occured during the year that was skipped over in the season 2 finale. Caprica-Sharon is noticeably given no scenes in the "One Year Later" segment, and in the commentary for the episode Ron Moore said that the first episodes of season 3 would deal with this. In addition, there will be flashbacks explaining how Dualla transfered to Pegasus to be with Apollo, but over time as more and more crewmen left, to the point that a skeleton crew was running the ship, she was left as the next highest ranking crewman on the ship and more or less his Executive Officer (although really, there's only about 3-4 people left including Apollo and Dualla even running the Pegasus CIC).
• In one brief shot at the end of the season 2 finale, Leoben Conoy arrives in Starbuck's tent and finds Anders and specifically asks where Kara Thrace is. Moore said that this is a major plot point, and will feature in the first three episodes of season three. It might have something to do with her missing ovaries.
• In an interview with NowPlayingMagazine on March 11, 2006, Ron Moore said "Essentially, season three is going to deal with the Cylon occupation of the Colonials on New Caprica. The sort of archetype that we’re talking about is like Vichy France: There’s a Colonial government run by President Baltar that is collaborating with the Cylons, while the humans put together an insurgent resistance against the occupation."
• Moore goes on to say that: Galactica and Pegasus will be trying to figure out a way to save everyone trapped on New Caprica.
• A major plotline is that there is going to be "an ongoing Cylon story where we’re going to be cutting over to the Cylon world for the first time and running a complete arc within the Cylons". This probably refers to the planned Lucy Lawless (Number Three) storyarc. It is unclear if by "Cylon world" Moore means the Cylon homeworld, or just a Basestar, Cylon-occupied planet, etc.
• The resistance against the Cylons and Baltar's collaborationist government on New Caprica will take three to five episodes, probably four. However, it will definately not take another seven episodes to wrap up the events of the season finale, as it did last time with "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II".
• Not all of the Cylons may believe that Baltar is the Hand of God, "Guardian of the New Order", etc.
