On board the Galactica they discuss the fallout of a third
of the fleet leaving to join Roslin, and realise that it’s not good at all.
On board the Astral Queen Lee is being interrogated by the Chroum, even
though Roslin stands up for him. As always Zarek is advocating more weapons,
which Lee claims is completely pointless. Roslin is under no illusions that
the Galactica allowed them to leave, and that Adama could have the Astral
Queen destroyed whenever he wants.
An unknown vessel has jumped into contact with the Astral Queen, and Zarek
decides it would be best if they shoot it down without asking questions.
Thankfully there prevented by the vessel identifying itself, its Kara’s
raider.
Lee goes to meet her at the landing bay and they hug a version of Sharon
steps off and Lee flips. He’s only prevented from shooting her by Helo
holding a gun to his head. Roslin steps in to moderate, and after a
seemingly peaceful resolution Roslin orders Sharon to be thrown out the air
lock.
Lee tells Helo and Kara about what happened to Adama and they’re both
stunned. Sharon only manages to save herself by claiming that she knows the
location of the tomb of Athena. Roslin spares her and Kara hands over the
arrow of Apollo.
Tigh and Adama talk about who should be promoted to replace Lee, but Adama
has already made his decision. He calls the pilot named Lt. George Birch and
hands over the premonition, explaining that he has a very important role to
play.
Adama makes a speech to the press about the fleet being split; meanwhile
Baltar and Six have a chat about how you can tell Humans from Cylons. He’s
becoming increasingly worried about the remaining cylons in the fleet, and
is freaked out that he might well be one of them.
Roslin interrogates Sharon and seems distrustful of her, and Sharon tries to
convince her that earth isn’t the best course of action. Roslin ignores this
and orders her to tell her the way.
Roslin and Zarek argue about Sharon, Roslin believes that she might be
trustworthy but Zarek has his doubts.
On a viper training exercise George Birch proves that he’s not such a good
choice. He makes a vital mistake in communicating and one of the pilots –
Kat – almost gets killed.
Lee almost shoots Sharon but Kara stops him. Lee loses his temper and starts
arguing about her taking the Rader and going back to Caprica.
Zarek talks with one of his flunkies and basically decides he wants to be
Roslins second in command, and they decide that Lee is more likely to get
that job so they concoct plan to remove Lee from control.
Once again the new CAG proves himself unworthy of his predecessor, and
screws up badly with refuelling.
Lee and Kara have a heart too heart, and talk about the
fleets future.
After the fuel mission has been aborted the CAG makes yet
another mistake, and scratches the side of Galactica.
On the surface of Kobol Sharon starts to lead the way up
into the mountains and towards the tomb of Athena. Sharon keeps everyone on
guard, but they find a path of gravestones just as she predicted. A bomb
explodes, and the Cylons attack. Everyone flees, and for the most part is
O.K but there are some casualties but the religious women who has counselled
Roslin for the last few episodes is killed in the initial blast.
In his office Adama paints one of his model ships and talks to Dee about Lee
leaving to side with Roslin. Dee tells him that Adama promised to get them
home - together - and that the fleet being split is his fault. Dee is
dismissed but as a parting shot tells him that the fleet needs to be fixed.
Adama makes the decision to go to the surface of Kobol and try to heal the
rift between the two half's of the fleet.
