[Kara] Previously on Battlestar Galactlca...
[William] I think the nova does look like the mandala inside 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 slnce I was a kld. I llked the pattern.
- [Lee] Starbuck, you're too low. - Come on, lee. Get her out of there.
- You come back! - Just let me go.
They're waltlng for me.
No!
[Franks] Gaius Baltar, after carefully weighing the evidence,
this tribunal finds you not guilty.
- [Gallery shouting] - Get him back! Get him out of here!
- Get hlm out of herel - Oh!
- Gaius, it's OK. Come with me. - Where are you taking me to?
To your new life. Come.
[William] 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 beeping]
Dradis contact! Massive Cylon fleet on intercept course.
[William] I want emergency jump, the entire fleet.
Sir, all fleet ships were powered down during the outage.
It'll take 20 minutes to spool up the FTL drives.
- We just don't have 20 minutes. - Action stations.
Set condltlon one throughout shlp. All vlper pllots report lmmedlately.
I have a bogey at my ten. I'm gonna go check it out.
Whoa! 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 frakkin' crazy.
- I saw your ship blow up. - Afraid not.
Did you not hear me?
- I've been to earth. - Earth.
[Kara] Blg blue oceans, fluffy whlte clouds.
You're gonna love lt. I promlse.
Identify that ship immediately.
I'm checking for colonial recognition codes.
- Get Lee online! - I'm trying, sir.
- I'm picking up her ship. - That's her voice.
- It is not real. It is a trick. - Duplicate verification.
Checking.
Hostiles inbound! 200 plus!
- Cag, take 'em out! - [Helo] All players, galactlca.
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.
[Kara] Splash onel
- Take that, you frakkln' toastersl - Admiral, it's a Cylon trick.
The vipers have stopped the main Cylon thrust,
- but the reserves have broken through. - I want everything that can fly there.
Saul. Saul!
- What the hell is wrong with you? - Nothing, bill.
- Never felt better in my life. - [Roslin screams]
No!
Colonel Tigh!
I gave you an order.
Everybody that's ever held a stick, I want them up there now.
Get 'em out! Put 'em up there!
Sir.
Attention. This is the XO.
Let's go! Get that bird in the tube. Get that bird in the tube.
Where are these nuggets? Mama's not gonna save you today!
Let's go! You want to fly or not?
- Come on, ready or not, let's go. - Hey, hey, this is crazy.
What if a switch flips in my head and turns against my own?
What is wrong with you? It's like the colonel said, OK?
Just think of that. Be the man you want to be till the day you die.
A lot easier said than done, because I don't know what I am right now.
You're Samuel T. Anders. That's all. Now get the frak in your ship.
Who else would he be? Hey, rook.
- Stay cool out there. - Yeah.
You'll lock in and do what you've been trained to do.
Like suiting up for a championship game.
Yeah, that's right. Good hunting.
If she didn't notice, 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.
[People shouting, overlapping]
Where are you taking me?
It's a place we found an unused compartment.
[Coughing]
- [Woman] So let's go! Yeah. - [Man] Excuse me.
[Engines whining]
- Sir, we've lost Pyxlsl - Oh, my gods, Captain Tarney.
600 souls on that ship. [sighs]
How did they find us?
That's the question, isn't it?
Base ships launching missiles. 40... correction, 50 plus inbound.
Half targeted on us, half on the fleet.
Have Triple-A target only missiles going towards the fleet.
- We can handle the hits. They can't. - All forces, priority intercept
enemy mlsslles targetlng clvlllan vessels.
OK. I am Samuel T. Anders.
I was born on Picon. I went to Noyce Elementary School.
Get your thumb off the button. You're blocking the...
Copy that.
Oh, frak me.
[Dlana] Longshot, hardball.
Turkey, right four low at three, committing.
[Sam] Longshot, I got the...
Tally, I got your back.
[Indistinct yelling]
Seelix, there's a raider on you!
[Dlana] Shoot, Andersl
I'm trying to. Gods, come on!
[Heartbeat]
[Deep breathing]
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 thing before they change their mind.
Helo, have our fighters cover our withdrawal.
[Helo] 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, Madame President.
[Whispering] No idea.
You'll be safe here, Gaius.
[Hatch opens]
[Hatch closes]
[People whispering]
Right.
[Viper cockpit opening]
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 take my post-flight checklist. I want to sign out so I can shower.
I don't have one for you.
What's up?
[Laughs]
OK.
OK, me too. It's OK, it's OK.
[Saul] Do you belleve In mlracles?
No.
I told everyone that you were too frakkin' mean to kill.
OK, I'm OK, I'm OK.
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. [chuckles]
- Everybody move back. - [Man barking orders] Move in!
Step away!
[William] I need you in sickbay.
Cottle's gonna give you a physical examination.
What 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.
Please don't go anywhere by yourself.
- It's not safe. - Tracey's here for anything you need.
We'll be back after we've seen Derrlck.
Oh, Derrick. That's your little boy, isn't it?
- The one in sickbay. - Right.
[Stammers] Yes, I'm praying for his recovery.
- Really? - Yeah.
- Oh, 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 beautlful.
When am I getting out of here? When I am getting off the ship?
- Security's tight. Besides... - Besldes what?
- You'rejust trylng to keep me here... - None of the other ships will have you.
Uh, 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.
[Chuckles]
Relax, Gaius. You think I've brought you this farjust 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.
Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, thank you, yeah.
Not some hollow ritual.
No, no.
It's as if the gods are right here beside you.
Well, yeah.
When I pray to the gods,
I feel... empty.
Do you? That's a shame, isn't it?
Her gods are false. Tell her.
If you feel empty when you pray to Zeus
or Poseidon or Aphrodite, it's because it is empty.
It's a totally empty experience. They're...
They're not real.
They've been promulgated by...
...a ruling elite...
...to stop you from learning the truth.
And what truth is that?
That's a very good question. What is the...
There's only one god.
There is only one god.
In a nutshell, that's the truth.
We're alone here, aren't we? The others aren't coming back soon.
And the door's locked.
All right, good.
Can you feel god's presence?
You know what? I think I do.
So do I.
Do you? Do you too?
We both... We both feel...
So what's Cottle's verdict?
Everything checks out.
So I'm me, not a Cylon?
That is why you had me tested, right?
- Kara, nobody said you were Cylon. - But you were thinking it.
We had to be sure, Kara.
- Fair enough. - Let's go through it again.
How many times do you want to hear it?
As many times as it takes to make sense.
[Kara] I followed a heavy raider into the storm. Took some hits, passed out.
When I came to, I was orbiting this planet.
It's yellow moon and star matches the description in Pythia.
I took these pictures in orbit.
The star patterns match what we saw in the tomb of Athena.
How did you get here?
I told you I don't know exactly.
That's just not good enough, Captain.
Tell us everything you remember.
I remember taking the photos.
Turning my ship in a reciprocal heading.
And then I'm not sure.
I must've blacked out again.
I remember a giant gas planet with rings.
I remember a flashing triple star.
And a comet. And then I was back with the fleet.
And for you, all of this took six hours.
I do not understand the time discrepancy either.
All I know is I was there. I took the pictures.
I didn't imagine it!
I had my crew clean it up. There's not a ding or a scratch on it.
It's the got same tail number as the one she flew out on.
But I've been fixing that old bird since day one,
and this thing looks like it's been rolled off the showroom floor.
So it's not the same ship.
Unless she found a hell of a body shop out there, no, ma'am, it's not.
Admiral, it's just not the outside either.
This is the data from the nav computer.
There isn't any. It's blank.
There's no record of where this ship has been.
OK.
Put her in the brig.
What? So some things don't add up, and we're back to thinking she's a Cylon?
What about Cottle's test?
Cottle's test doesn't prove anything.
Even if her DNA's the same, she could still be a Cylon.
She could've been one from the beginning.
Baltar's Cylon detector was a crock. It failed to ID Boomer.
I know how you feel about her, Bill,
but that is exactly what the Cylons could be counting on here.
Then we're back where we started from. There could be Cylons right here,
and we wouldn't know it till they put a bullet in our heads.
[Laura] Or lead us into an ambush. That Cylon fleet had enough firepower
to blow us out of the sky, but instead they ran and jumped.
And there's Kara Thrace suddenly back from the dead having found earth.
If Kara Thrace can lead us off our course...
[Lee] Course? What course?
The nebula was supposed to be another clue on the way to earth...
The nebula is only a road sign along the way to earth.
And we need to continue to follow its path.
Well, what if Kara
is the clue that we were supposed to find?
And what if she's playing you?
And all of us?
- [Hatch opens] - [Jeanne] Gaius, please!
Gaius, please, can you help me?
- Uh, what's going on? - OK.
Oh, god, um... watch his head.
- It's Derrick. - Derrick, is it?
Uh, Derrick, I see. Where are my clothes?
- It's OK. - Is it?
Well, did they give you a diagnosis?
They said he's got, um, viral encephalitis.
Viral?
I don't know, it's some inflammation of the brain.
- Can't the doctors do something? - Not if it's viral, no.
I'm afraid it's up to Derrick's immune system.
Uh... And he has to be strong. And we have to be strong for him.
I didn't want him to die in that sickbay, so...
So I brought him here.
So he can be wlth us. All of us.
Yeah, all of us.
Give me your hand, please.
I wish there was...
- You know I prayed for him, don't you? - I know.
- I prayed for him. - I know.
I guess...
I guess that the one true god just doesn't want him to live, right?
Uh...
Anybody still hearing that frakkin' song?
Nope.
Maybe it stopped when we figured out who...
What we are.
Could have been some klnd of trlgger?
To switch us on?
You know, after that raider scanned me with that red light,
damn thing just cut and ran.
[Saul] They all did.
You think it recognized you as a Cylon?
I don't know.
Maybe that's why it didn't shoot me. More important, why didn't I shoot him?
Racetrack was right.
- You just made a dumb nugget mistake. - [Anders] Did I?
Maybe I was programmed to leave my gun safeties on.
Those bastards can't program me to help them.
No way.
[Tyrol] Boomer thought the same thlng.
- And then she shot the old man. - Boomer didn't know what she was.
We do.
That is not gonna happen.
[Cocks gun]
Agreed?
I don't know why I'm here.
Yes, I do.
I'm here because of the things that we've shared
- and the things that we've seen... - The visions in the opera house.
You went inside. You saw more than I did.
I thought that maybe you could help me.
Help you how?
I need to know about the other five.
The types we've never seen.
The ones that Baltar calls the final five.
And you want to know if Kara Thrace is one of them.
Yes.
I've been programmed never to think about them.
Your programming isn't working, because you're thinking about them right now.
I try not to.
Trying not to is thinking about them. How do you rationalize that?
[Hatch opens]
[Gun cocks] All right, no.
Back off. Don't leave, back off.
The five are close.
- What? - I can feel them.
What about this one?
It's a protoplanetary system.
So?
Nothing but rocks.
No ringed gas giants like you claimed you saw.
I did see it, lieutenant.
- If you say so, sir. - And what are you saying, Mr Gaeta?
I'm not saying anything, sir. I'm just following orders.
- I'm ordering you to help me. - You're ordering me...
Mr Gaeta, take a break.
With pleasure, sir.
Jump clock is running, Dee. Take us out of here.
- Yes, sir. - [Countdown beeping]
What's going on?
I see it on his face.
On all of their faces. No one believes me.
You want people to believe you?
- Find that star system. - It's a big waste of time.
Hey, we've only been at it a few hours.
Found maybe a dozen trinaries. Baltar's calculations took months.
- It doesn't work like that. - How does it work, Kara?
It's a feeling.
An intuition.
I didn't use nav fixes to get there and back.
When we were at that nebula, it was so clear to me.
But every jump we take farther away, the clarity fades.
If we keep jumping like this, I won't be able to find our way back.
That'll be all.
All hands, prepare forjump in ten...
The President's adamant.
We're gonna continue on the course laid out by the eye of Jupiter.
... flve, four, three,
two, jump.
[Breathing sharply] We're going the wrong way.
If we keep jumping like this, I'm gonna lose the feeling completely,
never be able to take us back.
What do you want me to do?
You want me to go to Laura Roslin,
tell her forget Pythia and the eye of Jupiter,
because Kara has some feeling about where earth is?
Yes.
I can't.
I just left your ship.
There's not a scratch on it.
It's brand-new.
How do you explain that, Kara?
Look at me. Look at me!
I swear to gods...
It's me, Kara.
I can do this.
You once said you loved me like a daughter.
If you still do, you've gotta trust me on this one.
I can't afford to.
[Kara] They're waltlng for me.
- [Lee] Nol Nol - [beeps]
[Kara] They're waltlng for me.
[Lee] Nol Nol
[William] What should I believe?
Should I believe my heart? Or my eyes?
- [Kara] They're waltlng for me. - [Exploslon]
Well, you know where I stand.
I want to believe her.
But the President's right.
It's exactly what the Cylons would be counting on.
I guess you're not changing course.
For the time being, we follow the president's lead.
She still staying in your quarters?
Just till we find a place to put her up
to finish the rest of her Deloxin treatment.
I want to thank you for suiting up during the fight.
[Exhales]
We needed everyone up there.
We still do.
I took those off for the wrong reasons.
Put them back on.
Baltar's trial may have been the trigger, but, um...
this is a feeling I've been having for a while.
It's time for a change.
I need to move on.
Hmm.
I've had some feelers from the government.
There's a position opening up.
And I think I can make a valuable contribution there.
Maybe even more than in the cockpit.
Dad, what if Zak had come back to us in that viper?
If my brother had climbed out of that cockpit...
Would it matter if he were a Cylon?
If he always had been?
When all's said and done...
Would that change how we really feel about him?
[Derrick breathing raggedly]
Please, god.
I'm only asking you this one last time.
Don't let this child die.
Has he sinned against you? He can't have sinned against you.
He's not even had a life yet.
How can you take hlm and let me llve?
After all I've done.
Really, if you want someone to suffer, take me.
We both know I deserve it.
I have been selflsh and weak.
I have falled so many people.
And I have killed.
I'm not asklng for your forglveness.
I'm just asking that you spare the life of this innocent child.
Don't take him. Take me.
Take me, take me please.
[Breathing deeply]
[Paulla] We were all very moved by the way you prayed for Derrick.
Fat lot of good it did him.
Unfortunately, he's worse, if you hadn't realised.
Doesn't mean god didn't hear you.
I'm sure he's looking after Derrick's immortal soul.
Yes, I wish I shared your confidence on that one. I really do.
But you have to keep the falth.
- We all look to you for guidance... - You shouldn't, should you?
I mean, you're just...
Well, you're very young and...
[laughs softly]
What are we doing here exactly?
Heh.
Uh...
[giggling]
Thank you.
[Hatch opens]
Mr President.
Gaius, let's go.
- We should get back, OK? - Good to see you again.
I'm sorry. I can't...
We met at the groundbreaking ceremony on New Caprica.
Introduced you to my son Kevin.
He told you he wanted to be president when he grew up.
You told him that he could be if he stuck to his schoolwork.
He's a redhead little boy, isn't he? About eight or nine years old...
- Seven years old. - Seven years old.
How is, um...
- Kevin. - Kevin. How is he?
He's dead.
Your police shot him.
Come on, Gaius, let's get out of here.
[Gasps]
- Leave her alone! Leave her alone! - Look at me! Look at me!
[Muffled screaming]
Go on, scream.
Come on, scream! I want to see if anyone comes to help you.
[Screams]
Scream!
[Choking]
[Laughs] Beg.
I bet you begged the Cylons. Why don't you beg for me?
Come on, beg!
Get up! Get on your knees!
Get up!
[Grunts]
[Six] you asked god to take your life instead of the boy's.
- Did you mean it? - Yes.
Do it.
Take my life.
Please.
- [Yells] - [Groans]
Please.
[Grunts]
Please take my life.
[Grunting]
No.
You see?
Gaius, I knew god wouldn't desert you.
I felt his love course through me, giving me the strength to smite them.
A little less smiting next time, unless you want murder charges.
- [Jeanne] Gaius! - You two, watch the door.
Gaius...
Are you all rlght?
I cut myself shaving.
OK. Well, you have to come. You have to come and see Derrick.
- Derrick? Derrick, oh, yes. - God answered your prayers.
- You have to see. Look. - What?
Look at hlm.
Hi.
- And no trace of a fever. - Nuh-uh.
It's a miracle.
[People murmuring]
No one took it down.
Not the old man. Not Lee.
Not even you, Sam.
You just got back, Kara. We're all still trying to get a handle on this.
You know, you gotta cut people some slack.
Cut yourself some too.
When I woke up orbiting earth,
I just figured it was some crazy dream, but...
I went in following a heavy raider.
I mean, maybe the Cylons pulled me out of the soup.
Captured me, brainwashed me.
On Caprica, and the experiment on me.
I mean, did they take pieces of me?
I mean, is it possible that they grew me...
Another me in a petri dish,
and they embedded me with the memories,
or it with the memories, or...
I don't know.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, hey, no.
Kara, no. Listen to me.
If you were a Cylon,
then you've been one from the beginning.
Like boomer.
Spend my entire life thinking I'm one thing...
Yeah, and then you wake up one day and discover you're another.
Still doesn't change who you really are.
Still doesn't change the fact that I love you no matter what.
You are a better person than I am, Sam,
because if I found out that you were a Cylon,
I would put a bullet between your eyes.
[Dualla on PA] All hands, prepare forjump
In four, three, two, jump.
[Whimpering] Damn it, they're still going in the wrong direction.
Oh, one more jump and I'm gonna lose my way altogether.
All right, we gotta find you a rack. OK, take it easy.
It's Roslin.
The old man's not gonna listen to me as along as she's...
- I gotta get to her. - You can't do that.
- Is that a fact? - Yeah.
- [Gagging] - No, no, wait!
What the hell are you doing, Kara?
Where's the President, Sam?
Kara, come on.
[Muffled bang]
[Hatch opens]
[Cocks gun]
