Overview
Summary
- Lee Adama, Ellen Tigh and Anastasia Dualla find themselves in a hostage situation aboard Cloud 9.
- Three men and a woman named Sesha Abinell have taken them hostage. Sesha was once a cook abord the Greenleaf who only wanted to live a normal life, but when her husband was killed by the Cylons she decided to exact vengeance.
- Sesha demands that Admiral Adama and President Roslin turn over Cylon Sharon Valerii to her, seeking Valerii's life in compensation for her husband's.
- Sesha is infuriated that Adama and Roslin continue to allow one of their greatest enemies to live in their midst, even caged. She believes that every breath Sharon draws is an insult to those who have died. Lee escapes their notice at first, but eventually turns himself over to the gunmen, hoping to connect emotionally with Sesha and what she is going through.
- The situation prompts Adama to once again consider the value of the Cylon Sharon to him, and whether or not a Cylon has any real rights. Despite the fact that she has "proven" her loyalty time and time again, he will not give her the smallest measure of trust or acceptance. Finally Sharon tells him to just hand her over, if that's what it will take to convince him of her loyalty.
- The Marines make an incursion to try and regain control of the situation by force, but it does not go well. Two are killed, along with one of the hostage-takers. Lee is wounded badly, and the event only exacerbates the already tense situation. (Source: GateWorld)
- Will involve a scene trying to triangulate astrological data on the Lagoon Nebula (c.f. Tomb of Athena) to find Earth.
