== Summary ==  
*Reporter [[D'anna Biers]] is preparing a special report on what she's hyped as the "[[Gideon massacre]]", when she is escorted by [[Colonial Marine Corps|Marines]] to ''[[Colonial One]]''.
*President [[Laura Roslin]] and Commander [[William Adama]] meet her, and she complains that all of her requests to interview Marines involved with the Gideon incident have been denied.  Roslin and Adama tell her that all that is about to change:  they want to mend the relationship between the military and the civilian fleet by allowing Biers to shoot a documentary on life on ''Galactica'', with unrestricted access.

*Biers and her cameraman [[Bell]] are flown to ''Galactica'' with Adama in [[Margaret Edmondson|Margaret "Racetrack" Edmondson]]'s Raptor.  On ''Galactica'', Petty Officer [[Anastasia Dualla]] is given the task of showing them around, pointing out fairly everyday things like carbon dioxide scrubbers for atmosphere and vegetable refrigeration units--information that Biers writes off as trivial.

*...the humanoid Cylons are watching the documentary as well in an abandoned movie theater on Cylon-occupied [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Caprica|Caprica]]. A copy of [[Number Six]] is impressed at the resilience of the humans, and asks about the fate of Caprica-Valerii's baby.  A second, Caprica-based copy of D'anna Biers then turns around (Biers is now revealed to have been a [[humanoid Cylon]] the whole time), and tells her that both Caprica-Valerii and her baby survived her near-miscarriage. [[Aaron Doral]] says that the baby must be protected at all costs, and they must proceed with caution.

*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 weren't aware that the Caprica-Valerii was 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).

**In light of all this, have the Cylons ''not'' been using their entire strength against the Colonials in combat?  Have they, in effect, been "toying" with them?  This could explain the relative lop-sidedness of the Colonials' military victories since the initial destruction of the Colonies.

*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 [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Caprica|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).

==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 aus, 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.

*: '''D'anna Biers:''' And what have you discovered?
*: '''Lt. Felix Gaeta:''' ...(takes a long drag, coughs)...I hate cigarettes.  [[Ambrosia]]'s good with a chaser.  And, if you have enough Ambrosia...(Gaeta pulls back his shirt to reveal an ugly tattoo of a tiger on his upper right chest)...it don't hurt that much.
 
* ''The closing voice-over narration to D'anna Biers' documentary on ''Galactica'', which runs over a montage of images from the ship.  The [[Colonial Anthem]] tinkles in the background and gradually builds to up to a grand swell:''
*: '''D'anna Biers:'''  I came to ''Galactica'' to tell a story.  In all honesty I thought I knew what that story was before I ever set foot there:  how an arrogant military let their egos get in the way of doing their jobs, safeguarding the lives of the civilian population.  But I found out that the truth was more complex than that.  These people aren't Cylons.  They're not robots blindly following orders and polishing their boots.  They're people.  Deeply flawed, yes, but deeply human too, and maybe that's saying the same thing.  What struck me most is that despite it all - the hardships, the stress, the ever present danger of being killed - despite all that, they never give up.  They never lie down in the road and let the truck run them over.  They wake up in the morning, put on their uniforms and do their jobs.  Every day.  No pay, no rest, no hope of ever laying down the burden or letting someone else do the job.  There are no relief troops coming, no Colonial Fleet training new recruits every day.  The people on ''Galactica'' are ''it''.  They are the thin line of blue that separates us from the Cylons.  Lt. Gaeta told me a remarkable statistic; not a single member of Galactica's crew has asked to resign, not one.  Think about that.  If you wore the uniform wouldn't you want to quit?  To step aside and say "Enough! Let someone else protect the fleet?"  I know I would.  But then, I don't wear a uniform.  Most of us don't, most of us never will.  The story of ''Galactica'' isn't that people make bad decisions under pressure, it's that those mistakes are the exception.  Most of the time the men and women serving under Commander Adama get it right.  The proof is that our fleet ''survives''.  And with ''Galactica'' at our side, we '''''will''''' endure.  This is D'anna Biers, Fleet News Service.

*: '''Sharon Valerii:''' I'm still alive?!  She's still alive!  I told you.
*: '''Number Six:''' That's incredible.  And the [[Hera Agathon|baby]]?
*: '''D'anna Biers:''' (speaking without her usual New Zealand accent, but with a general American accent) It was saved.  We lost two Raiders relaying the images back to the Fleet, but I think the sacrifice was worth it.
*: '''Aaron Doral:''' We must proceed with caution.  The child's life must be protected at all costs.
*: '''D'anna Biers:''' Yeah.  Truly is a miracle from [[God (RDM)|God]].

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

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 aus, 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.
