“A Measure of Salvation” · Season 3, Episode 7

In this episode: Gaius Baltar (2), Helo (2), Sharon (2), Virtual Six (1), D'Anna Biers (1), Number Three (1)

[Baltar talks religion with D'Anna while she takes a short break from torturing him.]

I'm a scientist. And as a scientist, I believe if God exists, our knowledge of him is imperfect. Why? Because the stories and myths we have are the products of men, the passage of time. The religion you practice is based on a theory, impossible to prove. Yet you bestow it with absolutes like, "There is no such thing as coincidence."

DAD'Anna/Number Three

It's called faith.

Absolute belief in God's will means there's a reason for everything. Everything! And yet you can't help ask yourself how God can allow death and destruction. And then despise yourself for asking. But the truth is, if we knew God's will, we'd all be gods, wouldn't we??

[Virtual Six has mind-sex with Baltar, while in reality he is being tortured and yells back to her.]

Look at me. Look at me, Gaius. Do you want me to believe you're worth saving? Do you? Do you? Say it.

I want you to believe in me! Don't stop! Don't stop! Please, please don't stop! You have to believe in me! You're all I have left!

Now tell me you believe in me. Tell me you believe in my strength.

I believe in you! I believe in you! [D'Anna stops hurting him, totally confused, and he smiles at her/Six dreamily.] I love you with all my heart.

I made a choice to wear a uniform, to be a person.

You were a person before you put on that uniform, okay? You were a person before I fell in love with you. You don't have to prove that.

I have to prove it every day.

I'm not a traitor. I love my people. I love this ship. Besides you, the first thing I want to see on any morning is the lights of that CIC. But I did what I thought was right. If it was a mistake, fine, I can live with that. It's you I can't live without.

I'll always love you, Helo.
