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

If we're playing spiteful, can I change my pick to Starbuck?

If you want, you can change. She's in the same category, so it doesn't affect anyone else's choices.

I approve of omnis playing the moral compass. Tigh's more of the moral GPS.

So what booze is in this drink called "reason"?

Dunno, but you'll be getting a taste of "brig" if this insubordination keeps up.

Careful, "Admiral" - it's not something you can just snap your fingers and cause. The people get to vote - after a fashion. And the people like to listen to me.

This is an internal military affair and I'll be frakked if you and your Quorum sycophants will have any say in the matter.

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

Sir, why don't you call it a night. We got the bridge under control. Nothing on the Draidis. We can't do much until Sean makes a decision. You want I should bring you some water?

That's so sweet.

The Quorum isn't fond of you either, "Admiral" - but then, they don't have to be, and they don't have to listen to you, either, being the duly-elected civilian government.

I'm sure this little chat will be endlessly repeated while you keep trying to convince yourself you actually ARE fit for command. Doesn't bother me; I'll just stay over here in Colonial One.

That's very thoughtful of you, but since you start the game on Caprica, he might be waiting a while.

Sir, please. Don't think because there is a calm right now, that all is ok. He is easily antagonized, but he is our military leader. We need you two working together.
