Episode Notes
 
Survivor count: 47,853
 
The sixth Cylon is revealed: D'Anna Biers.
 
D'Anna Biers was named after Joey D'Anna, a college friend of David Eick's.
 
Dualla's first name is Anastasia.
 
Gaeta's first name is Felix.
 
Racetrack's name is Margaret Edmondson.
 
Kat's first name is given as Louanne during her interview. It's assumed that the spelling in the credits of this and "Home", part 1, are mistakes as it is spelled with the 'e' in subsequent episodes.
 
Luciana Carro shot all of her scenes in one day.
 
 
Episode Quotes
 
(after Kat moons the camera)
Lee: Kat, you want to tell me what the hell you think you were doing?
Kat: Um, I was - I was just saying hi to some of my buddies on the - on the fleet, sir.
Lee: Right. So you were literally talking out of your ass.
 
D'Anna Biers: You seem to think that your pilots deserve special consideration.
Lee: Actually, I do. Like everyone else, my pilots have lost their families, their friends, everyone they ever cared about; but on top of that they're asked to put their lives on the line every single day, for a fleet that seems more interested in what they do wrong than in what they do right. They're not asking for your pity, but they damn well deserve your respect.
 
D'Anna Biers: Are you afraid when you go into combat?
Racetrack: First thing they tell you is to assume you're already dead.
D'Anna Biers: Well, that sounds ghoulish.
Racetrack: Yeah, maybe, but dead men don't get scared and freeze up under fire. Me, I'm just worried that Hell's gonna be a lonely place, and I'm gonna fill it up with every toaster son of a bitch I find.
 
D'Anna Biers: So what do you look for in a new recruit?
Kara: Coordination, good reflexes, total commitment, and most of all, someone crazy enough to follow me into combat.
 
D'Anna Biers: So level with me. Why is Colonel Tigh not being charged in the Gideon incident?
Adama: We're at war against an enemy with a vastly superior force. I will not sacrifice the few people we have left o­n the altar of public outrage.
D'Anna Biers: So four civilians are dead, and Tigh and the shooters take a walk.
Adama: Nobody takes a walk. We all gotta live with it.
 
 
Episode Goofs
 
After Lee has D'Anna and her cameraman leave the pilot's duty locker, Kara can be seen sitting upright about to put on one of her socks. But in the very next shot, she's leaning forward, as if she had already finished.
 
When Ellen is talking to Saul, her position by the locker mirror changes between shots.
