*A Cylon [[logic bomb]] has studied all ship's systems. It will fully control ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'' once an expected Cylon force arrives to activate it by infiltration. Gaeta and Baltar work together to figure a way to rid the ship of it by erasing the hard drives of all computers. Doing this, however, will leave the ship a sitting duck for an attack while time is needed to restore function and data to the computers. | * A Cylon [[logic bomb]] has studied all ship's systems.
