Overview

Lee wrestles with his order to protect the civilian fleet as Adama launches his rescue mission. Meanwhile, on New Caprica, Colonel Tigh confronts Ellen's betrayal. [1]

Summary

  • On Pegasus Lee Adama and his wife have a conversation. Lee thinks that his father won't return from New Caprica and that the entire mission will fail. He also worries about his future responsibilities as the leader of the rest of mankind, but his wife tells him to not give up hope.
  • On New Caprica Samuel Anders confronts Colonel Tigh about Ellen Tighs betrayal and tell him that she needs to die.
  • Ellen tells her husband what she did to free him and explains her reasons for betraying the resistance. Tigh consoles her and she falls asleep, her drink having been poisoned by her husband. He puts down her corpse saying that he still loves her.
  • On Colonial One Baltar tells the Cylons that they have failed in their experiment and asks them why they don't just leave. A Three voices the concern that one day the descendants of mankind might excact vengeance upon the Cylons, should they be left to their own devices.
  • Suddenly, dozens of explosions can be felt and seen. The Battle of New Caprica has begun.
  • Tory Foster commands a team of section leaders in the evacuation and orders Maya to head for her ship.
  • Samuel Anders and a large group of resistance fighters retrieve weapons from beneath the Pyramid court.
  • In space above New Caprica, Galactica has deployed a squadran of Raptors and Vipers. The Raptors launch decoy drones to mimic the EM signature of Colonial battlestars. The Cylons pick them up and fall for the ruse. The Cylons move two baseships and Raiders away from the planet.
  • When Leoben leaves the home he keeps Kara Thrace in, she assaults him and tries to escape, but he knocks her out.
  • Tom Zarek tasks James Lyman to protect Laura Roslin as she makes her way to Colonial One.
  • The Cylons detect the decoy drones, but Galactica jumps deep into the planet's atmosphere and launches its remaining Vipers.
  • At the entrance to the shipyard, where the Cylons keep the grounded Colonial vessels, a team under Saul Tigh and Galen Tyrol are pinned down by Cylon Centurions. The Vipers begin to attack targets on the ground and clear the way.

Questions

  • With Baltar seemingly missing at the conclusion of the episode, will his Vice President, Tom Zarek, become President? Or will...somehow...Roslin become President?
  • How many humans died on New Caprica during the occupation and escape? Will it be in the thousands?
  • With Pegasus destroyed, will Tyrol's fighter construction continue?
    • Since Galactica now has Pegasus' Viper and Raptor compliment in addition to its own, will the starboard flight pod now be pressed back into service?
    • What will become of Lee Adama? CAG of Galactica?
  • Will Tigh become a disagreeable drunk, as he was before Ellen Tigh first boarded Galactica?
