[Tigh comes to Adama's quarters just before the extremely risky attempt to rescue the Baseship hostages begins]
Bill, you gotta scrub this mission.
What the hell are you doing here? You're supposed to be in the CIC.
The Cylons will kill every godsdamn hostage before we put one pair of boots aboard their ship. Laura Roslin will be the next to die, Bill.
I'm looking for options. You got one?
Yeah. I should've told you when I first found out, but I didn't have the guts.
What's wrong with you, Saul?
You remember back at the nebula when I told you about that frakking music? I thought it was in the ship. I was wrong. It was a signal. Some kind of crazy, frakked-up Cylon signal switched me on. I can't turn it off.
[not wanting to understand] Switched you on.
Like Boomer. I'm one of the Five.
One of the Cylons D'Anna's after.
[rising from his desk] Quit frakking with me. Colonel, I've known you for 30 years. When I met you, you had hair. I've never heard of a Cylon aging.
Doesn't mean they don't. Before the attack on the Colonies, we didn't know the skinjobs existed. Turns out there's another kind of Cylon we didn't know about, and I'm one of them.
[desperate] On New Caprica, you were in captivity. They did something to you, they... An implant, a post-hypnotic suggestion that makes you feel this way. Let's go talk to Doc Cottle...
[grabs Adama by the shoulders] Listen to me! It is not a delusion. It is not a chip in my head. I am a Cylon. I've fooled you for months now. I didn't want to, but I did.
Get your hands off of me.
[releasing him] If I'd had the guts to airlock myself when I first found out, we wouldn't be in this mess. But that's the way out. Not this suicidal attack. I am one of the Final Five. D'Anna will back down if you threaten to flush me out an airlock.
[After learning that the truth about Tigh being a Cylon, Adama is reduced to a sobbing wreck in his son's arms]
Okay. Dad, Dad, Dad, listen. No one suspected. No one. Not with his record, what he did on New Caprica. His eye, what happened to his wife... [tries to haul his father back to his feet] Come on, let's get up.
What have I done? All the people I've sent to die, for what? For what?
AAdama
There is no Earth. It's a frakking joke. There is no Earth.
Okay, Dad, listen to me. Listen to me! Pull it together.
AAdama
I can't... I can't kill him. I can't kill the bastard. I can't. I can't.
Okay, Dad. It's gonna be okay. It's gonna be okay. I'll take care of it.
[Starbuck and Leoben just found a crashed Viper, where she sees a corpse looking like her]
If you've got an explanation for this, now's the time.
I don't have one. I was wrong...about Earth.
Your Hybrid told me something. Said that I was the harbinger of death, that I would lead us all to our end.
She told you that? [Leoben runs away]
Is it true? Is it true? If that's me lying there, then what am I?? What am I?! What am I?
[Roslin sits alone on the floor; she calmly lights one page of a book on fire and begins turning the rest of the pages into the flame one by one. Admiral Adama enters]
We've gotta do something. Morale's going down the toilet. [sees the book] What are you doing? [realizes what the book is] Pythian prophecy. [sits down beside Roslin] Cottle told me that you didn't show up for your Doloxan treatment.
Do you wanna tell me why?
Laura, you need your treatments.
What are you doing? Are you just gonna lie down and quit? You're the one who made me believe in this-
You shouldn't have listened to me. When the Cylons first attacked, you should've held your ground and kept fighting. Because I was wrong. I was wrong about everything. And all those people who listened, and they trusted me, and they followed me, all those people... they're dead. [Adama reaches out to stop her burning the book, but she brushes his hand away] Don't. Stop. Stop. [breaking down] Don't touch me. Just go. [Adama walks out of the room] Burn. Just burn.
[After a pleasant evening with Lee Adama, Dualla happily looks at herself in a mirror with Gaeta nearby]
ADAnastasia "Dee" Dualla
What?
All I can think of is that waste of a planet.
DDee
Felix, please... I just want to hang on to this feeling for as long as I can.
Okay. [hobbles over to stand next to her and indicates a photo of Dee as a little girl] Look at that. Little Ana's got her smile back.
DDee
Sometimes I don't even remember that's me. So long ago... she has no frakking idea what's ahead of her.
[He limps out the door. Dee, still smiling and humming to herself, watches him go before pulling out a gun and shooting herself in the head.]
You'd better get back to your ship, the fleet is about to jump.
[Sighs] No, I'm not going. All of this is just going to happen again, and again, and again... So I'm getting off this merry-go-round. I'm gonna die here with the bones of my ancestors and it beats the hell out of being out there with Cavil. I'm gonna die in the cold and the dark before Cavil catches up with us.
I wouldn't count the old man out. He'll find us all.
[Sighs] Don't you ever want to stop fighting it, Colonel? Huh? Don't you just want to stop all this?
-And just ride the tide out to sea...
[Gaeta's marines take control of CIC, killing Private Jaffe in the process]
Admiral Adama, I am removing you from command of this ship and I am taking you into custody on the charge of treason.
You swore an oath when you put that uniform on. You pledged to defend this ship and her crew.
[furiously] You swore the same allegiance! What happened to your oath? For seven years, I have done my frakking job and for what? [indicates Colonel Saul Tigh] To take orders from a Cylon? To let machines network our ship? No, you... you are not the leader you were when we started. You're just a sad old man who has let his heart and his affection for a Cylon cloud his judgment.
I want you all to understand this! If you do this, there will be no forgiveness. No amnesty. This boy [referring to Jaffe] died honoring his uniform. You, you'll die with nothing.
[Starbuck shoots a Marine just before he can execute Lee Adama]
KTKara "Starbuck" Thrace
Take it from someone who died once: it's no fun. Let him go.
HMHamish "Skulls" McCall
Frak you.
[shoots McCall and draws a second gun]I can do this all day. Who's next? Racetrack? Conner?
