[Starbuck and Leoben just found a crashed Viper, where she sees a corpse looking like her]
Starbuck: If you've got an explanation for this, now's the time.
Leoben: I don't have one. I was wrong...about Earth.
Kara: Your Hybrid told me something. Said that I was the harbinger of death, that I would lead us all to our end.
Leoben: She told you that? [Leoben runs away]
Starbuck: Is it true? Is it true? If that's me lying there, then what am I?? What am I?! What am I?

[Roslin sits alone on the floor; she calmly lights one page of a book on fire and begins turning the rest of the pages into the flame one by one. Admiral Adama enters]
Adama: We've gotta do something. Morale's going down the toilet. [sees the book] What are you doing? [realizes what the book is] Pythian prophecy. [sits down beside Roslin] Cottle told me that you didn't show up for your deloxin treatment.
Roslin: (flatly) That's right.
Adama: Do you wanna tell me why?
Roslin: I didn't feel like it.
Adama: You're gonna reschedule.
Roslin: I don't think so.
Adama: Laura, you need your treatments.
Roslin: No, I don't.
Adama: What are you doing? Are you just gonna lie down and quit? You're the one who made me believe in this-
Roslin: You shouldn't have listened to me. When the Cylons first attacked, you should've held your ground and kept fighting. Because I was wrong. I was wrong about everything. And all those people who listened, and they trusted me, and they followed me, all those people... they're dead. [Adama reaches out to stop her burning the book, but she brushes his hand away] Don't. Stop. Stop. (breaking down) Don't touch me. Just go.

Roslin: (crying) Burn. Just burn.

[After a pleasant evening with Lee Adama, Dualla happily looks at herself in a mirror with Gaeta nearby]
Anastasia "Dee" Dualla: What?
Felix Gaeta: You're glowing.
Dee: Am I?
Gaeta: All I can think of is that waste of a planet.
Dee: Felix, please... I just want to hang on to this feeling for as long as I can.
Gaeta: Okay. [hobbles over to stand next to her and indicates a photo of Dee as a little girl] Look at that. Little Ana's got her smile back.
Dee: Sometimes I don't even remember that's me. So long ago... she has no frakking idea what's ahead of her.
Gaeta: Yeah. None of us do.
[He limps out the door. Dee, still smiling and humming to herself, watches him go before pulling out a gun and shooting herself in the head.]

[Tigh has just managed to talk Adama down from suicide]
Adama: I ever tell you about my summers with my uncle, when I was a kid? Foxes would attack his henhouse all the time. Really pissed him off. He would wake me up, we'd go with his hounds at night, up into the hills, looking for the fox. And the dogs could smell his scent. They'd go crazy. The pack would become a team, force the fox toward the river.
Tigh: So what would the foxes do?
Adama: Half would turn and fight. The other half would try to swim across. But my uncle told me about a few that... they'd swim halfway out, turn with the current, and ride it all the way out to sea. Fisherman would find them a mile offshore, swimming.
Tigh: Because they wanted to drown.
Adama: Maybe. Or maybe they were just... tired.
Tigh: Well, gods-dammit, Bill. We can't swim out to sea. I am the XO of this ship, you are the commanding officer. How is putting a bullet in your head gonna help Dee? It sure as frak isn't gonna help all the others who are thinking about doing the same godsdaman thing. What are they gonna do without the Old Man here to lead them?
Adama: Lead them where, Saul?

Tigh: You'd better get back to your ship, the fleet is about to jump.
D'Anna: [Sighs] No, I'm not going. All of this is just going to happen again, and again, and again... So I'm getting off this merry-go-round. I'm gonna die here with the bones of my ancestors and it beats the hell out of being out there with Cavil. I'm gonna die in the cold and the dark before Cavil catches up with us.
Tigh: I wouldn't count the old man out. He'll find us all.
D'Anna: [Sighs] Don't you ever want to stop fighting it, Colonel? Huh? Don't you just want to stop all this?
Tigh: -And just ride the tide out to sea...

Baltar: What have you done to deserve this punishment? What sins have you committed? What dark thoughts have you harbored, that condemn you, condemn you, to wander through the universe without hope, without light.So you have to ask yourself -- What kind of a father abandons his own children to despair and loneliness? Perhaps we are not the ones in need of forgiveness. Perhaps we're not. Perhaps we have been wrong. Perhaps it is God who should come down here and beg for OUR forgiveness! Am I right? Am I right?

[Gaeta's marines take control of CIC, killing Private Jaffe in the process]
Lt. Felix Gaeta: Admiral Adama, I am removing you from command of this ship and I am taking you into custody on the charge of treason.
Admiral William Adama: You swore an oath when you put that uniform on. You pledged to defend this ship and her crew.
Gaeta: [furiously] You swore the same allegiance! What happened to your oath? For seven years, I have done my frakking job and for what? [indicates Colonel Saul Tigh] To take orders from a Cylon? To let machines network our ship? No, you... you are not the leader you were when we started. You're just a sad old man who has let his heart and his affection for a Cylon cloud his judgment.
Adama: I want you all to understand this! If you do this, there will be no forgiveness. No amnesty. This boy died honouring his uniform. You, you'll die with nothing.

Private Neward: That's right, sir.
Adama: I thought I remembered you. Marine. You put it on the line when we took New Caprica.
Neward: It got pretty hairy down there-
Private Maldonaldo: Hey! Screw the war stories!
Adama: I remember you too, Maldonaldo. Big mouth. Not much of a soldier. That doesn't matter, because when this is over, there's gonna be a reckoning. And live or die, it's how you act today that's gonna matter. [abruptly stops walking and turns to face Neward] So what's it gonna be, Neward?
Neward: (hesitantly) Admiral, don't do this.
Adama: I'll be damned if I'm gonna let a guy like you run me off my own ship. You want to shoot? Go on. Let's see if you've got a pair.

[Roslin addresses the fleet]
Roslin: Women and men of the fleet. This is your president. We have come to a crossroads in our long and painful journey. Of all the decisions that I have had to make since assuming the presidency, none was more frightening or more difficult than agreeing to this alliance with the Cylons. But we have come to a crossroads in our long and painful journey. Cylons and humans have been at war for generations; we know nothing else. And we have been locked in a struggle that has seen both sides suffer unspeakable loss. But with our supplies running low and our options limited, our former enemies may represent our last, perhaps our only hope. To those in the fleet and in Galactica who would reject this alliance, I am asking you. No, I am begging you to reconsider and place your trust back in those who have brought you this far, and to reject those traitors who would use your fear of the Cylons to destroy Colonial civilization a...

Gaeta: (sarcastically) Right. If only you cared as much about the people on it...
Adama: You have no frakkin' idea-
Gaeta: Well then show me! You want to save some lives? Get on the radio and call Roslin. Tell her to come back and surrender.
Adama: No.
Gaeta: I'll ask you one more time, Admiral.
Adama: "Admiral?" "Admiral?" [reaches up to undo his rank insignia] You're the admiral now. So you call up Roslin. Make her laugh. [tosses his insignia onto the command panel]

[Gaeta shares a last cigar and conversation with Baltar]
Felix Gaeta: I suppose a long time ago, it was... architecture. There was a year there where I scribbled floor plans on everything. Dining room table, patio tiles, rare books... drove my parents crazy.
Gaius Baltar: How old were you?
Gaeta: I dunno. Uh, eight, maybe? Nine? [chuckles] I tell you one thing, though. I had some pretty frakking amazing ideas. Restaurants shaped like food. Hm? [chuckles again] Oh, gods, there'd be buildings and stairways... everything, everything had to have a stairway. [refills Baltar's cup of coffee] Spoils of war. [sighs] When I was older, then it became medicine, engineering, photography. Think I would've made a better architect than any of those, though. And then I discovered science and I... thought I was really, really good at it. Until I met you.
Baltar: [fighting back tears] Felix...
Gaeta: [shakes his head] No. And please, no religion. [pauses] I'm fine with how things have worked out. Really, Gaius, I am. I... I just hope... I hope that... people realize, eventually, who I am.
Baltar: I know who you are, Felix. I know who you are.

Number One: In all your travels, have you ever seen a star go supernova?
Ellen Tigh: No.
Number One: No? Well, I have. I saw a star explode and send out the building blocks of the Universe. Other stars, other planets and eventually other life. A supernova! Creation itself! I was there. I wanted to see it and be part of the moment. And you know how I perceived one of the most glorious events in the universe? With these ridiculous gelatinous orbs in my skull! With eyes designed to perceive only a tiny fraction of the EM spectrum. With ears designed only to hear vibrations in the air.
Ellen Tigh: The five of us designed you to be as human as possible.
Number One: I don't want to be human! I want to see gamma rays! I want to hear X-rays! And I - I want to - I want to smell dark matter! Do you see the absurdity of what I am? I can't even express these things properly because I have - I have to conceptualize complex ideas in this stupid limiting spoken language! But I know I want to reach out with something other than these prehensile paws; and feel the solar wind of a supernova flowing over me. I'm a machine, and I can know much more. I can experience so much more. But I'm trapped in this absurd body. And why?! Because my five creators thought that "God" wanted it that way.

Adama: In other words, it's our destiny to go after her, right? [Starbuck nods] Wrong. I've had it up to here with destiny, prophecy, with God or the Gods. Look where it's left us. The ass end of nowhere; nearly half of our people are gone; Earth, a worthless cinder; and I can't even walk down the halls of my ship without wondering if I'm gonna catch a bullet for getting us into this mess.

Adama: No one should feel obligated to join this mission in any way. This is a decision I have made for myself. If it turns out that there are not enough personnel to crew Galactica, I will lead a Raptor assault with anyone who is willing to join me.

Volunteers, move to the starboard side; Everyone else, to the port. Make your choice!
