Battlestar Galactica

Previously on Battlestar Galactica.

I think the nova does look like the mandala inside of this Temple.

Maybe it was a road sign on the path to Earth.

It was on the temple.

Where'd you get the idea to paint yours?

It was just something I've been doodling since I was a kid. I liked the pattern.

Starbuck, you're getting too low.

Come on, Lee. Get her out of there.

You come back! Just let me go.

They're waiting for me.

No!

Gaius Baltar,

after carefully weighing the evidence,

this tribunal finds you not guilty.

Get him back! Get him out of here! Get him out of here!

Gaius, it's okay. Come with me.

Where are you taking me to?

To your new life. Come on.

We're going to the lonian Nebula.

Sitrep! GAETA: Sensors show major power fluctuations.

Checking on fleet.

It's true. We're Cylons.

And we have been from the start.

Dradis contact!

Massive Cylon fleet on intercept course.

I want emergency jump for the entire fleet.

Sir, all fleet ships were powered down during the outage.

It will take at least 20 minutes to spool up the FTL drives.

We just don't have 20 minutes.

Action stations. Set condition one throughout the ship.

This is not a drill. All Viper pilots report to your Vipers immediately.

I have a bogey at my 10. I'm gonna go check it out.

What the frak?

Hi, Lee. Kara?

I've been to Earth.

I know where it is. And I'm gonna take us there.

No. No, no, this is frakking crazy.

I saw your ship blow up.

Afraid not.

Did you not hear me? I've been to Earth.

Earth.

Big blue oceans, fluffy white clouds. You're gonna love it. I promise.

Identify that ship immediately.

Sir, I'm checking for colonial recognition codes.

Get Lee online!

I'm trying, sir.

I'm picking up her ship's signature.

That's her voice all right. Hold on, hold on.

It is not real. It is a trick.

Duplicate verification.

Checking.

Hostiles inbound. 200 plus.

CAG, take them out.

All players, Galactica. Threat B-R-3-5-0, carom 2-1-1.

Raptors, lean back as missile pickets. Weapons free.

Don't lose me this time, Apollo.

Oh, not a chance.

Splash one!

Take that, you frakking toasters.

Admiral, it's a Cylon trick.

The Vipers have stopped the main Cylon thrust,

but the reserves have broken through, sir.

I want everything that can fly up there immediately.

Saul. Saul!

What the hell is wrong with you?

Nothing, Bill.

Never felt better in my life.

Col. Tigh!

I gave you an order.

Everybody that's ever held a stick, I want them up there now.

Get them out!

Put them up there! Sir.

Attention. This is the XO.

Ready, let's go. Get that bird in the tube.

Get that solo bird in the tube. Where the frak are these nuggets?

Come on, Mama's not gonna save you today! Let's go!

You wanna fly or not?

Come on, ready or not, let's go.

Hey, hey, this is crazy.

What if I get up there and another switch flips in my head

and turns me against my own? (WHISPERING) What the frak is wrong with you?

Shut the frak up. It's like the Colonel said, okay? Just think of that.

Be the man you want to be till the day you die.

A lot easier said than done, 'cause I don't know what the frak I am right now.

You're Samuel T. Anders. That's all you gotta remember.

Samuel T. Anders. Now get the frak in your ship.

Who else would he be? Hey.

Hey, rook.

Stay cool out there, all right? Yeah.

You'll lock in and do what you've been trained to do.

Guess it's just like suiting up for a championship game, right?

Yeah, that's right. Good hunting.

Well, if she didn't notice anything, maybe the other Cylons won't either.

Yeah, well, don't wait to find out. Shoot first.

Get the frak in there. Go kill something.

Let's go! Let's load these birds!

Anders, get the frak in your Viper!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Where are you taking me? It's a place we found.

An unused compartment.

Sir, we've lost Pyxis!

Oh, my Gods. Captain Tarney, 171 souls on that ship.

How did they find us?

That's the question, isn't it?

Base ships launching missiles. 175, correction, 50 plus inbound.

Half targeted on us, half on the fleet.

Have AAA target only missiles going towards the fleet.

We can handle the hits. They can't. Yes, sir.

All forces, priority intercept

enemy missiles targeting civilian vessels.

Okay. I am Samuel T. Anders.

I was born on Picon. I went to Noyse Elementary School.

Get your thumb off the transmit button, Sam.

You're blocking the freq. Copy that.

Oh, frak me.

Longshot, Hardball.

Turkey, right four, low at three, committing.

Longshot, I got the tally. I got your back.

Anders, take down, take down!

Seelix, there's a Raider on you.

Shoot, Anders.

I'm trying to.

Gods, come on. Come on.

Sir, the Cylon strike force has just turned back to their ships.

Base ships are spinning up.

They're pulling out.

We're gonna do the same damn thing before they change their mind.

Helo, have our fighters cover our withdrawal.

Yes, sir. All fighters assume rear cover formation.

They had us. Game over. Why the hell did they let us go?

Maybe something's changed.

Like what?

I have no idea, Madam President. No idea.

You'll be safe here, Gaius.

Right.

Chief, I'm gonna need you to develop my gun camera footage ASAP.

I've got a hell of a set of vacation pictures.

I'll need my post-flight checklist. I want to sign out so I can get in the showers.

I don't have one for you.

What's up?

Okay. Okay, me, too. It's okay, it's okay.

Do you believe in miracles?

No.

I told everyone that you were too frakking mean to kill.

Okay, I'm okay, I'm okay.

I'm okay.

What the hell are you doing in a jock smock?

I just finished Viper transition a week ago, and I started ACM.

How the...

Starbuck!

I did it, boss.

I found Earth.

Everybody move back.

Detail post. Move in. Step away!

I need you in sickbay.

Cottle's gonna give you a complete physical examination.

Okay, what the hell's going on? I'm off the ship for a few hours

and everybody's acting... A few hours?

Kara, you were gone for over two months.

That's impossible. My ship's clock reads six hours and change.

Then your clock's wrong, Kara.

Sam's telling you the truth. We thought you were dead.

What?

Gaius, I just wanted you to know that we'll be back soon.

Whatever you do, please don't go anywhere by yourself.

It's not safe.

Tracey's here for anything you need.

We'll be back as soon as we've looked in on Derrick, okay?

Right. Oh, Derrick. That's your little boy, isn't it?

The one in sickbay.

Right.

Yes, I'm praying for his recovery.

Really? Yeah.

Thank you. It's a pleasure.

Thank you.

So, what's the game plan, ladies?

Game plan?

Well, this place is brilliant, really.

You know, it's beautiful. Just when am I getting out of here?

When I am getting off the ship?

Well, security's too tight.

Besides... Besides what?

You're just trying to keep me here and... Gaius,

none of the other ships will have you.

We'll be back.

Yesterday, you were facing execution. Today you're free. Why the long face?

Oh, gee, I don't know. From President of the colonies to this.

King of fools.

Probably best to be hated by everyone than loved by this lot.

Doomed to live out the rest of my life in this loony bin.

I don't know, that might have something to do with my rather savage mood swings.

Relax, Gaius.

You think I've brought you this far just to let it end here?

I need some encouragement. A ray of hope about the future.

An inkling.

You've got me.

I'm here for you.

That is so beautiful.

Hello. Sorry, what?

The way you were praying.
