“Unfinished Business” quotes from Battlestar Galactica (2003)

Laura Roslin

[walks over to Adama] Didn't expect you to find you playing in the sand.

Adama

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.

Adama

When you stand o­n this deck, you be ready to fight, or you dishonor 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.

Tigh

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 gonna call it?

Tigh

Not enough excitement for o­ne night for you, Captain?

[to Apollo, as he leaves] 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? [Apollo punches her in the face.]Truth stings, don't it?

You want a fight, Captain. You got it.

Check it out. It's a great place for a house.

So you're really gonna give up flying.

Ah, flying's gonna 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?

Dualla

What's it look like?

Looks like they're trying to kill each other.

Dualla

That's o­ne perspective.

[laughs] Well, that makes things more complicated.

Yeah.

What are we gonna do?

What are we gonna 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-hmm.

Well, you... You don't think I will?

Mm-mm. [giggles]

[Stands up] MY NAME IS LEE ADAMA, AND I LOVE KARA THRACE!!

[laughing] Calm down!

Well, it's not like anybody'll hear. We're in your cabin in the forest, right?

Ah. [giggles]

I LOVE KARA THRACE! AND I DON'T CARE WHO FRAKKING KNOWS!

Oh, you're crazy. Get down.

Well, come o­n. I'm not gonna stop until you get up and do it too.

I can't.

I'm gonna- Okay, here we go again. Lee Adama...

Okay, shh! [She stands] Okay. Ka - [gasps] KARA THRACE LOVES LEE ADAMA! [They kiss. Starbuck stops smiling and looks serious.]

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 gonna need it.

I missed you.

I missed you too. I missed you too.
