Episode Quotes
 
Baltar: I am the Vice President. Legally speaking, if the President is incapacitated, shouldn't I take over her --
Tigh: Legally speaking, I have declared martial law. That makes you nobody.
 
Roslin: Doctor, I need your help, but it's illegal, dangerous, and in violation of your oath as an officer.
Dr. Cottle: You’re a lousy salesman.
 
Baltar: (to Tyrol) Love is a strange and wonderful thing, Chief. You'd be happy you experienced it at all. Even if it was with a machine.
 
Adama: I never had much use for people who second-guessed my decisions, especially if they've never held a command. They don't understand the pressure. You make a call that affects the lives of thousands and you have no one to turn to for backup.
Tigh: You make it look easy.
Adama: You know that's a lie now.
Tigh: A lot of pieces to pick up.
Adama: Then we'll pick them up together.
 
(dying words)
Boomer: (to Tyrol) I love you, Chief.
 
 
Episode Goofs
 
When a deckhand pulls Cally off Jammer, he is seen holding her left arm around the wrist, but in the very next cut, his hand is nearer her shoulder.
 
 
Cultural References
 
The shootings on the Gideon was initially inspired by the Kent State shootings, creating a parallel between the clash between military and civilians. However, as things progressed in the creative stages, the incident mirrored more closely the Boston Massacre.
 
Cally's shooting of Boomer was modelled on Jack Ruby's assassination of Lee Harvey Oswald.
