Episode Quotes |

(after Kat moons the camera)
Lee: Kat, you want to tell me what the hell you think you were doing?
Kat: Um, I was - I was just saying hi to some of my buddies on the - on the fleet, sir.
Lee: Right. So you were literally talking out of your ass. | D'Anna Biers: You seem to think that your pilots deserve special consideration.
Lee: Actually, I do. Like everyone else, my pilots have lost their families, their friends, everyone they ever cared about; but on top of that they're asked to put their lives on the line every single day, for a fleet that seems more interested in what they do wrong than in what they do right. They're not asking for your pity, but they damn well deserve your respect. | D'Anna Biers: Are you afraid when you go into combat?
Racetrack: First thing they tell you is to assume you're already dead.
D'Anna Biers: Well, that sounds ghoulish.
Racetrack: Yeah, maybe, but dead men don't get scared and freeze up under fire. Me, I'm just worried that Hell's gonna be a lonely place, and I'm gonna fill it up with every toaster son of a bitch I find. | D'Anna Biers: So what do you look for in a new recruit?
Kara: Coordination, good reflexes, total commitment, and most of all, someone crazy enough to follow me into combat. | D'Anna Biers: So level with me. Why is Colonel Tigh not being charged in the Gideon incident?
Adama: We're at war against an enemy with a vastly superior force. I will not sacrifice the few people we have left on the altar of public outrage.
D'Anna Biers: So four civilians are dead, and Tigh and the shooters take a walk.
Adama: Nobody takes a walk. We all gotta live with it. |
