How? Why?

11
00:00:55,389 --> 00:00:57,223
It doesn't really matter now.

12
00:00:57,307 --> 00:01:00,852
What does matter is that,
as of this moment,

13
00:01:00,936 --> 00:01:02,186
we are at war.

The last thing I need

19
00:01:14,324 --> 00:01:18,244
is a one-eyed drunk sowing
discontent and disobedience.

But this isn't their
standard wedge formation.

Where's the CAP?

00:03:24,413 --> 00:03:26,914
Starbuck and Kat will
intercept in 98 seconds, sir.

55

It looks like a pursuit and there's
been weapons exchange between them.

A pursuit?
Yes, sir.

on any of ours yet?

are they doing?

All right, let's see if we can climb
up their asses without drawing any fire.

62

These two seem pretty
preoccupied with the other one.

63

Got any idea why Cylons
would be chasing Cylons?

we close the gap.

But a while ago, they
all started getting sick.

180
00:13:07,871 --> 00:13:11,623
you were on a mission with
Admiral Adama. Is that correct?

181
00:13:20,216 --> 00:13:22,968
It was a black ops mission.

182
00:13:23,052 --> 00:13:24,052
Hmm.

183
00:13:25,680 --> 00:13:29,933
You remember the Tauron
colonists were such outlaws,

184
00:13:30,018 --> 00:13:34,104
always pushing their luck with the
Admiralty every chance they got?

185
00:13:34,189 --> 00:13:35,939
ROSLIN: Right.

186
00:13:36,024 --> 00:13:40,360
The Taurons were
drilling for tylium ore

187
00:13:40,445 --> 00:13:44,239
on a moon that was too close
to the Cylon armistice line.

188
00:13:48,620 --> 00:13:51,497
We knew that they had
to get out of there

189
00:13:51,581 --> 00:13:53,916
or risk provoking
the Cylons.

190
00:13:56,461 --> 00:14:00,380
I'm sorry, but how did this
result in his ship being shot down?

191
00:14:00,465 --> 00:14:03,133
He was my recon pilot.

192
00:14:03,218 --> 00:14:05,219
He was there
to gather evidence.

193
00:14:05,303 --> 00:14:09,014
The Taurons must have seen us
coming, because they ambushed him.

194
00:14:09,098 --> 00:14:11,683
Lieutenant Novacek
was shot down

195
00:14:11,768 --> 00:14:14,019
by the Taurons
in cold blood.

196
00:14:14,103 --> 00:14:16,939
NOVACEK: Krypter! Krypter! Krypter!
I've got damage to the port engine.

197
00:14:17,232 --> 00:14:18,815
Bird is down. Repeat,

198
00:14:18,900 --> 00:14:20,734
bird is down.
Request rescue.

199
00:14:20,860 --> 00:14:23,737
MAN: Stealthstar transmission
acquired. NOVACEK: This is Bulldog,

200
00:14:23,821 --> 00:14:25,072
bird is down. Repeat,

201
00:14:25,156 --> 00:14:27,741
bird is down.
Request rescue.

202
00:14:32,747 --> 00:14:34,706
So what did you do?

203
00:14:36,459 --> 00:14:38,293
I made a bad call.

204
00:14:40,797 --> 00:14:42,881
His ship was gone.

205
00:14:42,966 --> 00:14:45,050
No ejection on dradis.

206
00:14:45,134 --> 00:14:47,135
No distress call.

207
00:14:47,220 --> 00:14:48,804
He was dead,

208
00:14:50,390 --> 00:14:51,974
so I left.

209
00:14:54,811 --> 00:14:58,230
But the lieutenant did eject,
obviously, and somehow survived

210
00:14:58,314 --> 00:15:00,774
in his ejection seat
long enough

211
00:15:00,858 --> 00:15:03,235
for the Cylons
to find him.

212
00:15:03,319 --> 00:15:04,653
Wow.

213
00:15:06,656 --> 00:15:08,407
Could you both give us
a moment, please?

214
00:15:08,491 --> 00:15:10,742
Thank you, Tory, and thank
you very much, Lieutenant,

215
00:15:10,827 --> 00:15:12,828
I appreciate it.
Madam President.

216
00:15:13,663 --> 00:15:16,081
Why don't we check
the fleet registry,

217
00:15:16,165 --> 00:15:18,500
see if any of your family
might have survived?

218
00:15:39,314 --> 00:15:43,525
So, are you gonna tell me
what really happened?

219
00:15:43,610 --> 00:15:46,194
You're gonna have to trust me
on this one, okay?

220
00:15:46,279 --> 00:15:48,530
It's my mess.

221
00:15:48,615 --> 00:15:49,615
I'll fix it.

222
00:15:55,288 --> 00:15:56,538
(BREATHES DEEPLY)

223
00:16:17,060 --> 00:16:19,186
Okay, this is the last one.
Yeah.

224
00:17:01,688 --> 00:17:02,854
Fire.

225
00:17:34,303 --> 00:17:35,429
TIGH: I see it.

226
00:17:40,017 --> 00:17:41,101
I see it.

227
00:17:45,690 --> 00:17:46,773
I see it.

228
00:17:53,573 --> 00:17:54,698
I see it.

229
00:17:56,159 --> 00:17:57,909
Daniel Novacek

230
00:17:57,994 --> 00:18:01,913
just escaped from a POW cell
on a Cylon baseship,

231
00:18:01,998 --> 00:18:05,333
stole a Raider,
flew it here.

232
00:18:05,418 --> 00:18:07,419
I just finished
debriefing him.

233
00:18:07,503 --> 00:18:09,212
Bulldog's alive?

234
00:18:09,297 --> 00:18:10,797
Yeah.

235
00:18:10,882 --> 00:18:13,049
My Gods.

236
00:18:13,134 --> 00:18:15,761
How could he be alive?

237
00:18:15,845 --> 00:18:18,930
That tough son of a bitch, he
actually made it, didn't he?

238
00:18:19,015 --> 00:18:21,308
Yeah, I guess he did.

239
00:18:21,392 --> 00:18:26,104
So, are you here to talk
to your friend or to your XO?

240
00:18:26,189 --> 00:18:28,940
And last time I checked,
I was neither.

241
00:18:31,986 --> 00:18:35,030
Oh... I get it.

242
00:18:36,908 --> 00:18:38,784
Oh, yeah.

243
00:18:38,868 --> 00:18:45,081
This is gonna be a little complicated
for you, isn't it, Admiral?

244
00:18:45,166 --> 00:18:46,833
You gonna tell him
what you did?

245
00:18:46,918 --> 00:18:48,585
I did what I had to do.

246
00:18:48,669 --> 00:18:51,922
So tell him.

247
00:18:52,006 --> 00:18:54,466
It's not gonna make any
difference. The past is the past.

248
00:18:54,550 --> 00:18:56,343
You're equivocating.

249
00:18:56,469 --> 00:18:59,471
I don't know why the frak
I came here. Tell him!

250
00:18:59,555 --> 00:19:01,681
He's gonna find out

251
00:19:01,766 --> 00:19:03,558
sooner or later.

252
00:19:13,069 --> 00:19:14,277
(DOOR CLOSES)

253
00:19:16,405 --> 00:19:18,073

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

255
00:19:49,522 --> 00:19:50,647
Go away.

258
00:20:10,710 --> 00:20:12,210
I can't believe it.

259
00:20:12,295 --> 00:20:14,170
It's really you.

260
00:20:15,298 --> 00:20:17,507
Danny Novacek.

261
00:20:17,592 --> 00:20:19,175
I heard you'd made it.

262
00:20:19,260 --> 00:20:21,261
Good for you, Bulldog.

263
00:20:24,432 --> 00:20:26,349
Oh, Gods.

264
00:20:26,434 --> 00:20:27,642
Saul.

265
00:20:30,104 --> 00:20:31,605
A drink?

266
00:20:31,689 --> 00:20:34,524
You have no idea.

267
00:20:34,609 --> 00:20:36,192
Yes, I do.

268
00:20:45,828 --> 00:20:46,995
(DOOR OPENS)

269
00:20:47,163 --> 00:20:49,706
Dad?

270
00:20:49,790 --> 00:20:52,250
Hey, I just got your message.

271
00:20:52,335 --> 00:20:54,002
Thank you for coming.

272
00:20:54,086 --> 00:20:55,378
Sit down.

273
00:20:55,463 --> 00:20:57,547
It's time for us to talk.

274
00:21:05,306 --> 00:21:07,140
Let me ask you something.

275
00:21:07,224 --> 00:21:08,433
How often you get
out of here?

276
00:21:08,517 --> 00:21:10,185
Why? All the time.

277
00:21:11,896 --> 00:21:14,314
I've been a little under
the weather, that's all.

278
00:21:14,398 --> 00:21:17,901
And how'd you wind up
on this old bucket anyway?

279
00:21:17,985 --> 00:21:19,694
What happened
to the Valkyrie?

280
00:21:19,779 --> 00:21:21,821
Well, let's just say

281
00:21:23,366 --> 00:21:27,869
that last mission wasn't exactly
a boon to the old man's career.

282
00:21:27,954 --> 00:21:31,498
Galactica was his
graceful retirement.

283
00:21:31,582 --> 00:21:34,501
Heard you and the old man
haven't spoken in a while.

284
00:21:34,585 --> 00:21:36,211
What's wrong?

285
00:21:36,295 --> 00:21:38,797
He won't cover your ass
day and night like he used to?

286
00:21:38,881 --> 00:21:42,634
Oh, no, he still does
his share of ass-covering.

287
00:21:42,718 --> 00:21:46,096
Problem is,
it's his main function now.

288
00:21:46,180 --> 00:21:47,722
Of course,

289
00:21:47,807 --> 00:21:51,476
considering how you wound up
getting captured in the first place,

290
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:56,314
I guess you found that out the
hard way yourself, didn't you?

291
00:21:56,399 --> 00:21:58,650
What's that supposed to mean?

292
00:22:01,070 --> 00:22:03,488
My Gods.

293
00:22:03,572 --> 00:22:06,032
He didn't tell you, did he?

294
00:22:09,370 --> 00:22:10,870
Did he?

295
00:22:10,955 --> 00:22:12,497
Tell me what?

296
00:22:14,291 --> 00:22:17,627
That son of a bitch.

297
00:22:23,092 --> 00:22:25,218
I shot him down.

298
00:22:30,599 --> 00:22:32,976
Well, if you shot him down,
you had your reasons.

299
00:22:33,060 --> 00:22:35,103
You were
following orders,

300
00:22:35,187 --> 00:22:37,814
preventing something worse,
right?

301
00:22:37,898 --> 00:22:39,899
No.

302
00:22:39,984 --> 00:22:42,986
I shot him down to avoid

303
00:22:43,070 --> 00:22:45,196
detection.

304
00:22:45,281 --> 00:22:48,033
Protect the mission,

305
00:22:48,117 --> 00:22:51,119
so it wouldn't be
discovered by the Cylons.

306
00:22:56,625 --> 00:22:59,794
It was a black ops mission

307
00:22:59,879 --> 00:23:02,630
whose sole purpose

308
00:23:02,715 --> 00:23:06,134
was to ascertain the
likelihood of a Cylon strike.

309
00:23:10,473 --> 00:23:12,390
"Cylon strike"?

310
00:23:22,151 --> 00:23:25,528
So, you're saying that...

311
00:23:25,613 --> 00:23:29,783
That we knew
they were out there?

312
00:23:29,867 --> 00:23:33,995
That they could launch
an attack on the Colonies?

313
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:38,666
We didn't know
anything for sure.

314
00:23:38,751 --> 00:23:41,544
There were theories
in some circles

315
00:23:41,629 --> 00:23:46,466
that the reason that the Cylons
had stayed dormant for so long

316
00:23:46,550 --> 00:23:51,012
was because they were
building a war machine,

317
00:23:51,097 --> 00:23:53,056
preparing a strike.

318
00:23:56,018 --> 00:23:57,644
But I thought...

319
00:23:57,728 --> 00:24:01,815
I thought that no one had seen or
heard from the Cylons in over 40 years.

320
00:24:01,899 --> 00:24:04,692
That's true, partially.

321
00:24:07,404 --> 00:24:12,617
The Admiralty had grown restless
with the Adar administration.

322
00:24:12,701 --> 00:24:14,619
They thought we were
resting on our laurels,

323
00:24:14,703 --> 00:24:19,082
unprepared to protect
against an attack.

324
00:24:19,166 --> 00:24:22,544
My mission was to escort
a stealth recon ship

325
00:24:22,628 --> 00:24:25,296
just beyond
the armistice line.

326
00:24:25,381 --> 00:24:29,425
Stick our nose over,
gather evidence,

327
00:24:29,510 --> 00:24:32,679
see if there was
any suspicious activities.

328
00:24:32,763 --> 00:24:37,100
And if the Cylons discovered
you had crossed the line,

329
00:24:37,184 --> 00:24:40,353
breaching the armistice,
then they would see that as...

330
00:24:40,437 --> 00:24:42,438
An act of war.

331
00:24:46,402 --> 00:24:49,320

We register you on dradis,

332

past the line.

00:24:59,623 --> 00:25:01,624
Repeat, two clicks
and I've got

337
00:25:01,709 --> 00:25:04,544

where we are?

Oh, it's true.

And you know it's true.

You've known it every second
of every day since it happened.

And the sooner
you admit it,

the sooner you might get that
haunted look out of your eyes.

372
00:26:53,195 --> 00:26:54,988
Listen to me.

its own death sentence.

So the attack
on Novacek's ship,

378
00:27:25,811 --> 00:27:27,812
the one that winged him

379
00:27:27,896 --> 00:27:31,399
and the two dradis contacts
that were following him,

380
00:27:31,483 --> 00:27:35,278
they weren't Taurons.
Those were the Cylons.

381
00:27:36,822 --> 00:27:39,824
For all those years,
I told myself

382
00:27:39,908 --> 00:27:43,202
that I didn't know
what they were.

383
00:27:43,287 --> 00:27:45,663
But I was just
lying to myself.

384
00:27:45,748 --> 00:27:48,333
Pretending that it
couldn't be true.

385
00:27:54,590 --> 00:27:55,757
It is true.

386
00:28:04,725 --> 00:28:07,852
I started it.

387
00:28:07,936 --> 00:28:10,021
Initiated it.

388
00:28:10,105 --> 00:28:11,689
Wait a minute.

389
00:28:11,774 --> 00:28:13,608
You started what?

390
00:28:13,692 --> 00:28:15,401
Started what?

The attacks
on the Colonies.

392
00:28:21,450 --> 00:28:23,493
By crossing the line,

393
00:28:23,577 --> 00:28:25,370
I showed them that

394
00:28:25,454 --> 00:28:27,705
we were the warmongers

395
00:28:27,790 --> 00:28:29,582
they figured us to be.

396
00:28:35,172 --> 00:28:38,966
And I...

397
00:28:39,051 --> 00:28:42,887
I left them
but one choice.

398
00:28:42,971 --> 00:28:45,098
To attack us

399
00:28:45,182 --> 00:28:47,517
before we attacked them.

400
00:28:47,601 --> 00:28:50,728
No. No.

401
00:28:50,813 --> 00:28:53,898
Because it wasn't
just you.

402
00:28:53,982 --> 00:28:55,066
They put you there.

403
00:28:55,150 --> 00:28:58,820
They put you there, across
the line. You had no choice.

404
00:28:58,904 --> 00:29:02,573
That was the Admiralty. That
was the... That was the military.

405
00:29:02,658 --> 00:29:04,784

point-blank, no-deflection shot.

They had him dead to rights.

I'd say so.

They didn't.
They let him escape.

how he was able to overcome the

do the Cylons have, sir?

Maybe it was the same virus

were suffering from.

told us a story that we'd buy.

The question is, why?
Ask yourself that, Danny.

506
00:36:24,891 --> 00:36:26,392
Because up until
a minute ago,

507

you were doing exactly
what they wanted you to do.

and seek revenge.

And that's exactly
what you did.

what they wanted.

It's like a bottle
that never runs dry.

00:37:09,227 --> 00:37:15,024
You can keep reaching for it
over and over and over again.

that bottle away, Saul?

we can't hide from the things
that we've done.

around this situation.

00:38:29,349 --> 00:38:32,893
may have set you up
to provoke a war they wanted?

535
00:38:35,271 --> 00:38:38,482
It's naive to think that horrible
things that we can't understand

536
00:38:38,566 --> 00:38:41,068
have simple explanations.

537
00:38:41,152 --> 00:38:46,699
Because simple explanations make us
feel like we have control when we don't.

538
00:38:46,783 --> 00:38:49,618
We know why the Cylons
attacked us,

539
00:38:49,703 --> 00:38:52,371
and it wasn't any one thing.
Oh, my Gods!

540
00:38:54,124 --> 00:38:56,041
We did a thousand things,

541
00:38:56,126 --> 00:38:58,043
good and bad,

542
00:38:58,128 --> 00:39:02,131
every day for 40 years to
pave the way for those attacks.

543
00:39:04,843 --> 00:39:06,927
Something has to be done.

544
00:39:14,602 --> 00:39:16,603
You know what that is?

545
00:39:25,697 --> 00:39:27,948
Medal of distinction.

546
00:39:31,119 --> 00:39:34,121
This was before I heard about
this resignation of yours.

547
00:39:34,205 --> 00:39:35,539
So...

548
00:39:38,918 --> 00:39:41,211
I'd like to propose this.

549
00:39:41,296 --> 00:39:44,214
You seem hell-bent on
paying some kind of penance

550
00:39:44,299 --> 00:39:48,052
for whatever it is
you think you've done.

551
00:39:48,136 --> 00:39:51,221
So instead of resigning, why don't
you get up and walk out of here,

552
00:39:51,306 --> 00:39:54,641
meet me on the port hangar deck
tomorrow evening for this ceremony,

553
00:39:54,726 --> 00:39:57,144
and let me pin a frakking
medal to your chest?

554
00:39:59,439 --> 00:40:00,939
I can't.

555
00:40:01,024 --> 00:40:02,649
It's not for you.

556
00:40:02,734 --> 00:40:04,485
It's for them.

557
00:40:05,820 --> 00:40:08,405
Stand up there,
acknowledge your fleet,

558
00:40:08,490 --> 00:40:10,908
and give them
what they need.

559
00:40:10,992 --> 00:40:13,327
A hero.

560
00:40:13,411 --> 00:40:15,871
That'll be your penance,

561
00:40:15,955 --> 00:40:17,956
even if it kills you.

562
00:40:27,467 --> 00:40:30,928
ROSLIN: On behalf of everyone in this
room, it is my pleasure to present you,

563
00:40:31,012 --> 00:40:32,679
Admiral Adama,

564
00:40:32,764 --> 00:40:34,014
with the medal of distinction

565
00:40:34,140 --> 00:40:38,727
for your 45 years of courageous
service to the Colonial Fleet.

566
00:40:38,812 --> 00:40:40,020
Congratulations.

567
00:41:19,435 --> 00:41:22,604
Have Dr. Stoffa call me
as soon as you arrive.

568
00:41:22,689 --> 00:41:25,232
And, Bulldog,
you're gonna be fine.

569
00:41:25,316 --> 00:41:28,110
Just remember it'll take
some time. All right.

570
00:41:29,904 --> 00:41:31,405
Lieutenant,

571
00:41:34,367 --> 00:41:35,742
you forgot something.

572
00:41:38,496 --> 00:41:41,999
I can't. Bill, I...
Take it.

573
00:41:42,083 --> 00:41:43,917
You're not getting off
that easy.

574
00:41:48,715 --> 00:41:51,258
Once a pilot,
always a pilot, Bulldog.

575
00:41:55,388 --> 00:41:56,972
Yes, sir.

576
00:42:29,380 --> 00:42:31,048
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

577
00:42:32,217 --> 00:42:33,967
ADAMA: Come in.

578
00:42:48,358 --> 00:42:50,359
I heard you won a medal.

579
00:42:52,237 --> 00:42:53,362
Yeah.

580
00:42:54,489 --> 00:42:57,157
They give them out
for anything these days.

581
00:42:59,077 --> 00:43:01,161
Good behavior,

582
00:43:02,455 --> 00:43:05,332
attendance,
playing well with others.

583
00:43:18,846 --> 00:43:21,682
I need you back
in the CIC.

584
00:43:21,766 --> 00:43:25,018
It just ain't the same without you
in there intimidating the inmates.

585
00:43:25,103 --> 00:43:26,311
No.

586
00:43:29,899 --> 00:43:32,985
That's not what I came here
to talk to you about.

587
00:43:33,069 --> 00:43:34,194
Okay.

588
00:43:35,863 --> 00:43:37,614
So, why are you here?

589
00:43:37,699 --> 00:43:40,325
I don't know. Nothing.

590
00:43:43,579 --> 00:43:46,373
You wanna tell me
what happened to Ellen?

591
00:43:47,500 --> 00:43:48,709
(SIGHS)

592
00:43:53,381 --> 00:43:55,465
I could use a drink.

593
00:43:58,261 --> 00:43:59,386
Me, too.

594
00:44:31,919 --> 00:44:33,587
