*The Cylons deploy two [[Raider]]s to ''Galactica'' to transmit Biers's video documentary back to Caprica. Does this mean the Cylons know ''exactly'' where the  [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] is, and have simply chosen ''not'' to intercept it?  Is keeping the Fleet alive part of their "plan"?

**Possibly, in the "de-briefing" towards the end of the episode, Caprica-Biers means the two Raiders transmitted the footage she cut from the documentary (showing Helo's Boomer in sickbay). It is likely they mean that they picked up the whole "show" from Fleet transmissions and the snippet from the two Raiders.

**Or, are the Cylons ''now'' refraining from sending in a full [[Basestar (RDM)|basestar]] and Raider wing to attack ''Galactica'' because they are worried that a direct attack on ''Galactica'' will result in the death of Caprica-Valerii and her hybrid daughter? That is, they would have attacked it if this Valerii wasn't on board, but was sending two Raiders in now simply a reconnaissance mission?  The Cylons did say that they want to proceed cautiously.

**However, the two Raiders don't jump in to the Fleet's vicinity, they fly in normally. Perhaps the Cylons actually ''don't'' know exactly where the Fleet is, and these Raiders may have been searching for days to find them. Seeing as the Cylons on Caprica are not aware that the Caprica-Valerii is still alive, perhaps they also truly aren't aware of the Fleet's location, and other Cylons in the Fleet cannot transmit messages back to Caprica because they are out of range (though a nearby Cylon ship might be close enough).

*While preparing to film the interview with Dr. Baltar, Biers pulls out what is presumably the contraband tape of Sharon and hurriedly does something with it.  This is likely a subtle foreshadowing that may not be fully comprehended until Biers's true nature is revealed and the episode is watched again; Biers is likely remembering that she has to set up the transmission of the video to the Cylons in the upcoming attack. The Raiders, after being destroyed, then resurrect and the data stream transmitted from Biers is now available to all Cylons via their common knowledgebase.

*Dualla states that ''Galactica's'' carbon dioxide scrubbers run "24 hours a day"; this would seem to establish that the Colonial Fleet operates on a 24-hour day.  This could possibly be based on [[Caprica (RDM)Caprica]]'s orbital rotation (where the seat of the [[government]] was located). Yet, all 12 Colonies couldn't possible all have the same axial rotation time.  This 24 hour day might seem an automatic assumption, but other science fiction series sometimes depart from the convention:  For example, on ''[[memoryalpha:Star Trek:Deep Space Nine|Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]]'', the titular space station actually runs on a 26 hour day, because it follows Bajor's local time (which has a 26 hour rotation period).

Überblick

In dem Versuch, die wachsenden Vorbehalte in der Flotte gegen das Militär zu begegnen, erlauben Commander Adama und Präsident Roslin einer ausgesprochenen Gegnerin des Militärs und Journalistin den vollen Zugang zur Galactica und seiner Besatzung.

Zusammenfassung

Dieser Text muss noch übersetzt werden. Der englische Text ist zu finden unter "bearbeiten".


Bemerkenswerter Dialog

  • Die abschließende Erzählung in D'Anna Biers' Dokumentation über Galactica, die über eine Bildermontage vom Schiff gelegt ist. Die Koloniale Hymne läuft im Hintergrund und schwillt teilweise dramatisch an:
    D'Anna Biers: Ich kam zur Galactica um eine Geschichte zu erzählen. Ehrlich gesagt dachte ich, dass ich die Geschichte bereits kannte, bevor ich überhaupt einen Fuß auf die Galactica setzte: wie ein Haufen arroganter Militärs zusieht, wie ihre Egos sie davon abhalten, ihre Arbeit zu tun, das Leben der Zivilbevölkerung zu schützen. Aber die Wahrheit war komplizierter. Diese Leute sind keine Zylonen. Sie sind keine Roboter, die blind Befehle befolgen und ihre Stiefel polieren. Es sind Menschen. Zutiefst fehlerhaft, ja, aber auch zutiefst menschlich. Vielleicht ist beides gleichbedeutend. Was mich am meisten beeindruckt hat, ist: trotz aller Mühen, trotz des Stresses und der allgegenwärtigen Gefahr, getötet zu werden -- trotz alledem geben sie niemals auf. Sie legen sich nicht auf die Strasse und lassen sich vom LKW überfahren. Sie stehen morgens auf, ziehen ihre Uniform an und tun ihre Arbeit. Jeden Tag, ohne Bezahlung. Ohne Ruhepause. Ohne Hoffnung, die Bürde an Andere abgeben zu können. Es ist keine Ablösung unterwegs, und es gibt keine koloniale Flotte, die tagtäglich neue Rekruten ausbildet. Es gibt nur die Leute auf der Galactica. Sie sind alles, was uns von den Zylonen trennt. Leutnant Gaeta erwähnte mit gegenüber eine bemerkenswerte Statistik. Bisher hat kein einziges Besatzungsmitglied der Galactica beantragt, den Dienst zu quittieren. Nicht einer. Stellen Sie sich das vor. Wenn Sie die Uniform tragen würden, hätten Sie keine Lust zu kündigen? Zur Seite zu treten und zu sagen: "Genug. Jetzt sollen andere die Flotte beschützen." Ich weiß, dass ich diesen Wunsch hätte. Andererseits trage ich keine Uniform. Die meisten von uns tragen keine und werden niemals eine tragen. Die Geschichte der Galactica handelt nicht davon, dass Leute unter Druck Fehlentscheidungen treffen. Sie handelt davon, dass solche Fehlentscheidungen die Ausnahme sind. In aller Regel erledigen die Männer und Frauen, die unter Commander Adama dienen, ihre Arbeit ordentlich. Der Beweis ist, dass unsere Flotte überlebt hat. Und mit der Galactica an unserer Seite werden wir auch weiterhin durchhalten. Ich bin D'Anna Biers, Reporterin der kolonialen Presse.
