Colonel Saul Tigh (on phone from CIC): I just talked to Fisk. Court-martial's over.
Commander William Adama: Over? When did it start?
Tigh: I don't know. But they've been found guilty on all counts. She's gonna execute them both for murder and treason!
Adama (after a long pause): I want a Marine strike team in a Raptor in five minutes. Prepare to launch alert fighters. (to Cally) You have work to do.
Adama (in CIC, calling the Pegasus): You told me they'd get a fair trial. What kind of a trial could they have possibly had?
Admiral Helena Cain: I assure you I heard them out. I weighed their statements against those of the guards, and I took into consideration their service records and commendations. It was a difficult decision, Commander, but I dare say it was a fair one.
Adama: They have the right to have their case heard by a jury!
Cain: I am a flag officer on detached service during a time of war. Regulations give me broad authority in this matter.
Adama (to an officer in CIC): Launch the fighters. (to Cain) You can quote me whatever regulation you like. I'm not gonna let you execute my men.
Cain: I highly suggest you reconsider that statement, Commander.
'Colonel Jack Fisk: Admiral, Galacticas launching Vipers and a Raptor.
Cain: Commander…why are you launching Vipers?
Adama: Please arrange for Chief Tyrol and Lieutenant Agathon to be handed over to my Marines as soon as they arrive.
Cain (coldly): I don't take orders from you!
Adama: Call it whatever you like. I'm getting my men.
Cain: You are making such a mistake.
Adama: I'm getting my men.
Cain (to her crew): Action stations.
Fisk: Admiral, this will spiral out of control fast.
Cain: Launch the alert Vipers. Adama has taken us over the line. He's left me with no choice: launch the alert Vipers.

The Pegasus and Galactica fighters launch and begin their approach. Fade to black. —"Pegasus"
