[Following the Cylon ambush of Pegasus and the death of Commander Barry Garner (Pegasus's commanding officer).]
Adama
In your opinion, off the record, what was Garner's flaw?
Apollo
He was used to working with machines. Command is about people.
Adama
Remember that, as you take command of "The Beast". Garner was my decision; his failures, my responsibility. Don't let me fail a second time. Congratulations, Commander.
