Overview

Admiral William Adama questions whether or not Sharon Valerii's pregnancy should be aborted. Meanwhile Roslin's health declines rapidly as a pro-Cylon peace group attempts to sow civil disobedience within the Fleet.

Summary

  • President Roslin is near death, and Billy Keikeya is preparing Vice President Dr. Baltar to succeed her.
  • Dr. Baltar manages to save her by using stem cells from Caprica-Valerii's unborn child.
  • According to on set reports from filming at SFU in Vancouver, this episode will feature an extended flashback into events on Caprica the day before the Fall of the Twelve Colonies, leading up to Secretary Roslin being told she has cancer. The flashback will also contain Dr. Gaius Baltar, and Number Six as the "physical" ("real") Number Six that Baltar thought was human. It may even finally reveal the identity of the mysterious individual that Number Six started talking to in the Mini-series: After leaving Baltar, Number Six looked at someone who wasn't in the camera shot (the camera focused only on Number Six) and she said "I wondered when you'd be showing up", but the identity of who she met has never been revealed.
  • There is a movement brewing within the Fleet to make peace with the Cylons. Agents of this movement severely damage the FTL engines of the Tylium refinery ship.
  • Baltar secretly allies himself with this movement, supplying them with a bomb.


Questions

Analysis

  • At the end, we are shown that the bomb Dr. Baltar gave the resistance was the nuclear warhead he was given to create his Cylon Detector.
  • Sharon baby's blood was able to destroy the President's cancer from her system. The procedure to remove the baby from Sharon was not done at the end.


Notes

  • This episode takes place between 189 and 191 days after the Cylon attack on the colonies.
  • Lee Adama is once again a Captain, and has been reinstated as CAG, presumably of Galactica.
  • Gina is apparently a member of the pro-Cylon resistance. The other members of the resistance are unaware she is a Humano-Cylon.

You have found a link that leads nowhere... deliberately.

Reasons?

The reason for this is to clean up the Special:Wantedpages, thus making our lives easier behind the scenes.

So, what links lead here?

There are too many to bother wasting our time listing. So here's a list of pages that link here.
