Previously on Battlestar Galactica... I feel like I'm abandoning my post. Time to pack it in, Saul. You know it. More than half the crew's down on New Caprica already. We're not really doing too much up here any more. Good luck. Oh, my Gods. It's a Cylon fleet. They found us. There's only way that this mission ends, and that's with the successful rescue of our people off of New Caprica. You brought 'em home, Saul. Not all of them. What about us? There is no us. All right? There is nothing here. Do you get that? Nothing! Lee, when are you going to get yourself a girl? I'm doing fine, thank you. You're not still frakking Dualla, are you? I am proud to serve with you, Lieutenant. And to call you my wife. I'm in a different place now. I just want to hurt someone, and it might as well be you. BELL RINGS, HORN BLARES CROWD SHOUT DISTANT CROWD WHISTLE, SHOUT Yeah, that's right! CROWD WHISTLE, CHEER That was exactly what I needed. Hm. Glad to be of service. Come on, come on! Grab the rope! Damn it. Looking for this? SHE CLEARS THROAT Yeah. Kara, I want you back. I want our marriage back. I want a real marriage. And what if I'm just not ready for that? I don't know. Then I guess it'll never be. Maybe cos I'm not what you really want after all. I'm late for the dance. Don't forget your boots on the way out, Sammy. CROWD SHOUTS Get that right up, Lee! Come on! CROWD WHISTLES, CHEERS If it isn't the fighting Agathons, huh? Starbuck, late to the party as usual. At least I got here in time to watch you kick the CAG's ass. Lee, you got him. You just got to keep your right up. He's a tough little frakker, I'll give him that. He's fighting me like he's got it in for me. Stay off the ropes. All right. Stick and move. Just stay off the ropes. All right, you got him. BELL RINGS, HORN BLARES Come on, Lee. Kick his ass! You got him, you got him! CROWD SHOUT Well, look at that. A couple months ago you would've had to roll him into this ring. Well, not any more. You know, with a cooler head, he might have half a chance. Come on! Keep it up! Two... ..three... ..four... Come on. ..five... ..six...seven... Hey, hey, you're all right. Put 'em up. BELL RINGS, HORN BLARES HE MOUTHS SILENTLY Fisher! Fisher, you're up! Good fight. Bit off a little more than you can chew, huh? Oh, come on, Lee. Don't be that way. Stick around. The night's young. Well, I guess then you'll just have to enjoy it without me. Pulling your tags out so soon? I'm done, Kara. I'm not. Now who's biting off more than they can chew, Captain? Not me, from where I'm standing, Major. Excuse me. SHE CLEARS THROAT I can't believe the progress they've made. You should've seen it a month ago. Well, I'd still rather sleep in a warm bunk every night then muck around in...this muck. Bunk's going to be plenty warm tonight. He said yes. He approved the transfer? You two just don't know how to keep a secret, do you? So what, are you guys here to see Baltar put a shovel in the ground? "Join the celebration as we break ground for a better tomorrow." Aww, it's such a load of crap. There's an open bar. Really? See, now, why didn't you say so? Lee, you got to let your better half do the talking. She gets right to the point. Let's go find us a better tomorrow. Excuse us. Didn't expect to find you playing in the sand. It's not sand. It's alluvial deposits. This used to be the river mouth. And you just had to take off your shoes and play in the alluvial deposits. How romantic. That's a nice colour on you. Thank you. It's good to see you, Laura. You too, Bill. Hm. There you are. Hey. How are you? My father was an avid fight fan. I adored my father, so I love a good fight. I heard about your so-called dance. Accidentally, I might add. Don't take it personally. This is sort of a... ..private tradition. Tradition? There's a lot of frustration aboard warships. Arguments become grudges, then end up being feuds. This allows them to let off some steam out in the open, so everybody can participate. Rank doesn't matter. As long as you throw your tags in the box, everyone's fair game. Oh! BELL RINGS, HORN BLARES Next up is Hotdog! Hotdog, get your bun up here and pick a partner. Did you throw your tags in there? HE CHUCKLES No. No. I wish. All the frustrations that I have... Who's your partner, Hotdog? Yeah! Starbuck. You got to be kidding me. Starbuck! CROWD WHISTLES, CLAPS Whoo! BELL RINGS, HORN BLARES CROWD CHEERS, WHISTLES BELL RINGS, HORN BLARES CLAPPING, WHOOPING Thank you. Let this day be remembered as the day we broke ground for our new tomorrow. CHUCKLING But no, it gets better. OK? Cos then they come back to the locker room with a set of handcuffs and two straws! LAUGHTER Did I ever tell you how glad I am I married you? Not once. Oh. Well, then I'll save it for a special occasion. Come here. Hey, honey. Hey, baby. Hi. SHE CHUCKLES We'll have the infrastructure to deal with any unforeseen... Excuse me for just one moment. The finance minister just came by, and I should really... Go ahead. Just... SHE CHUCKLES Oh, my Gods. I didn't think he'd ever leave. He's a good kid. Hm. Indeed. You say this stuff grows around here? Mm-hm. In the mountains north of here there's this little stream that comes down into this lake. The water is so clear, it's like looking through glass. I'm thinking of building a cabin. Woo. It's good. Mm, it IS good. CROWD WHISTLES That's a beautiful combination. What I miss? Grisky, you done that bird already? No, the gyro's giving me trouble. Come on, Chief, I'm the only one over there. Frak it. Frak it! Get yourself a drink. Ship down, Chief. Yeah, we'll get it tomorrow. I'm figuring I'll give 'em a little R&R. Congratulations. I may be jumping the gun, but... ..the first boy born on Galactica. That's the thing I want to talk to you about, sir. Um, Cally doesn't want him born here. And neither do I. Not if he has a chance to grow up breathing fresh air. What are you saying? Thank you. Well, we both would like to request to be relieved of duty and settle on New Caprica. No, no way. Look, you're both here for the duration. CROWD WHISTLES Ugh! BELL RINGS, HORN BLARES Woo! What? Can you hold these? Thank you. CROWD QUIETS DOWN Yeah! Chief. Get your fat, lazy ass up here. CROWD CHEERS, WHISTLES Helo. Make 'em tight. Yes, sir. He's an old man. It'll be fine. He's not serious, anyways. You sure about this? It's your funeral. You can do it, buddy. BELL RINGS, HORN BLARES CROWD: Oh! Get up, Chief. We're just getting started. You know, I was thinking it's probably better to have the baby on the Galactica anyways. You know, there's, uh, sickbay, doctors, medicine. Yeah. No, it'll be better. We'll be happier. Yeah. Come on, Admiral! Hey, honey. Hey, baby. Hi. SHE CHUCKLES CROWD SHOUTS Is this really it, Bill? Is this how we're going to spend all the rest of our days? Hm? FOLK MUSIC Maybe we should just enjoy this. I am. No, no, I mean enjoy being here on this planet as long as it lasts. I mean, maybe... ..the Cylons come back, maybe they don't, but for now, right now... ..we've got a break. I've got people that want to get off the ship, move down here. I can't say I blame them. I mean, what are you going to do? This how you fight your enemies, Chief? This how you fight for your life? No excuses. Show me you're a soldier. Get up! CROWD CLAPS, WHISTLES Come on! Nice, Admiral. Oh! Is that what you want? Is that what you want, Admiral? GROANING Nice, Admiral! The old man's got chops. He knows when to make his moves, when to hold back. I wish I could say the same for his son. Come on! I bring offerings. Just in time. I was runnin' on bingo fuel. Wow, look at that. You literally drank Anders under the table. Where's Dee? Oh, she, uh, packed it in...to go pack. Guess it's just you and me, then. Yep. It's just you and me. Come on, Dad! BELL RINGS, HORN BLARES That's bad. That's enough already. You should quit. Just stop the blood. Coagulant for the swelling, ice for the bleeding. Come on. You insist on doing this. You want to do this. You're crazy, right? You want to do this? Yeah. All right. Keep your guard up. He's coming in wild. Get him with a left hook. You want to win? I'm not going to win. Watch his jab. His jab's killin' you, all right. Just keep your eyes open. Chief, good morning. Morning, Cally. Admiral. I've been thinking about, uh, what you said. A battlestar's no place to raise a family. So I'm gonna miss you, Chief. I want to wish you good luck. Thank you, sir. My best to both of you. You mean it? Really? Thank you. I want you guys to have at least a dozen. We'll see about that! I need your help. Help me up. PANTING When you stand on this deck, you be ready to fight, or you dishonour the reason why we're here. Now, remember this. When you fight a man, he's not your friend. Same goes when you lead men. I forgot that once. I let you get too close, all of you. I dropped my guard. I gave some of you breaks, let some of you go, before the fight was really over. I let this crew and this family... ..disband. And we paid the price in lives. That can't happen again. Grogosky. You're with me. Let's get that bird back on the line. Madame President. Admiral. All right, this dance is over. Get your booze and your dog tags and let's get out of here. So what, you're just going to call it? Not enough excitement for one night for you, Captain? Hey. Hey! Where the frak do you think you're going? It's over, Kara. So, what? You have the guts to try and frak another man's woman but not to fight one? I wonder if Dee knew what she was getting. Think she would have settled for sloppy seconds? Hm. Truth stings, don't it? You wanna fight, Captain? You got it. CROWD CHEER, WHISTLE BELL RINGS, HORN BLARES SHE CHUCKLES Come on. You afraid to hit me? Or maybe you can't. SHE CLEARS THROAT Check it out. It's a great place for a house. So you're really going to give up flying? Ah, flying's going to suck now anyway. Lots of training, endless CAPs. The war's over. So's all the good stuff. Gimme a tour...of the future life of Kara Anders. I'm not getting married. Well, then...then what's the point, Kara? I mean, you love him, right? Where are we going with this, Lee? Well, now, that's the question, isn't it - where are we going? I mean, what if this... This is it? The rest of your life, Kara. Is this how you want to spend it? Is this who you want to spend it with? What's going on? What's it look like? Looks like they're trying to kill each other. That's one perspective. Ah! SHE PANTS Well, that makes things more complicated. Yeah. What are we going to do? What are we going to do? We accept it. Tomorrow, I tell Dee, you tell Sam. Just like that? Just like that. I don't know. Yeah, we tell them how we feel. We shout it to the skies. Yeah, right. Mm-hm. Well, you...you don't think I will? Mm-mm. Mm-mm. Wait. SHOUTING: My name is Lee Adama, and I love Kara Thrace! SHE LAUGHS Calm down. Well, it's not like anybody'll hear. We're in your cabin in the forest, right? Ah. I love Kara Thrace, and I don't care who frakking knows! THEY LAUGH Oh, you're crazy. Get down. Well, come on. I'm not going to stop until you get up and do it too. I can't. SHE GIGGLES I'm going... OK, here we go again. Lee Adama... OK, OK, OK! OK. Ka... Kara Thrace loves Lee Adama! Get up. Starbuck, get up. You can do this. HE MOUTHS SILENTLY Morning, Admiral. You look like you had a good time. Yeah, it was some party. Yeah, well, it's been a hell of a morning, too. You missed all the excitement. There's problems upstairs? No. No, good things. Kara got married. Believe that? What? Yep, about an hour ago. Found herself a priest, went down by the river and got married. HE EXHALES DEEPLY You OK? HE CLEARS THROAT Can you believe that? HE CHUCKLES Well, she deserves it, man. We all deserve to be happy. I also gave her permission to muster out along with Tyrol and Cally, a few of the others, so it'll be up to us to make sure there's no mass exodus. Hey, man. Did you hear the news? We're hitched. We got married. Can you believe it? No. No, I can't believe it. Yeah. No, it was crazy. She comes down, and she wakes me up. She pops the question, she drags me down to the priest, and, bang, like that, we're married. So it was your idea. Yeah. It was my idea. Do you guys... Do you guys want a minute to, uh, you know, talk? Congratulations, Sam. Yeah. And good luck. You're going to need it. Watch that pretty face! I'm out of here. I missed you. I missed... I missed you too. Captions were made with the support of NZ On Air.
