Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Gee, this is fun! Hey, Leoben, old buddy old pal!

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

BSG (Dee)

Oh, yes, I reveal as a Cylon! And by my reveal powers, I damage Galactica!

Holy Frak. Frak frak frak Frak FRAK!!!!

OK, c'mon team human. We can do this. Think of the songs they will sing when we come out of this victorious. Think of the look on the their red blipped "faces" when we kick.their.tailpipes!

No matter what that traitor damages, we need to do repairs. We will crawl back. We will pick up the broken pieces, and turn them into shrapnel, and spit it back at those toasters! And WIN! Whose With me?!

One last order of business: Apollo has offered to remain CAG, but for some reason the offer didn't get much traction. Instead the CAG title passes to his father. Arise, CAGmiral Adama. You have lost a son, but gained the ability to activate vipers through the power of your mind.

Just think, dad, you could have been PreCAGmiral if you'd only tried hard enough. Don't feel bad about me turning out Cylon, though I'm sure it's nothing you did wrong raising me.

Verily, some are born toasters, some achieve toasterhood and some have toasters thrust upon them.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

BSG (Cally)

Adama, if you have an XO, you have to XO me or the next basestar activation will probably kill us. Well, actually, even if you do XO me, the next basestar activation could still kill us, but at least it will be more dramatic.

More dramatic than JUMPING OUT OF AN EXPLODING BATTLESTAR INTO SPACE?! Because that was pretty damn awesome.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Adama)

Hoping I can get an XO back to get some birds in the air and launch a nuke from a viper! I move to the Hangar Deck and play XO-2 on Cally
