Episode Notes
 
Survivor count: 41,420
 
Louanne Katraine's real name is Sacha (full name not given). The name she took was from a girl who died just two days before the Cylon Holocaust.
 
This episode marks the death of Kat. Admiral Adama promotes her to CAG just before she dies.
 
In the dialogue between Three and Baltar, mention of "Jupiter" spoken onscreen is substituted with the name "Zeus" in the closed caption. This is due to the fact that the original lines reflected the title of the following episode, which was later renamed. The former title reflected the Greek mythos employed in the series, Zeus' Roman counterpart being Jupiter. This makes yet another yet unexplained inclusion of Roman mythology into the predominant Greek mythos used in the show.
 
Number Three's conversation with Baltar confirms that the initial seven Cylons are not actually aware of who the Final Five are.
 
Adama tells Kat that he would have liked to have had a third child, a daughter. In the original series, Adama has a daughter named Athena in addition to his two sons.
 
It's revealed that Kat was promoted from Lieutenant to Captain. However, it is not known how long she has held this rank.
 
Over the course of this episode the fleet looses two civilian ships: the Adriatic and Carina.
 
Adama and Tigh's joke about a paper shortage is a likely in-joke, as a paper shortage was discussed to be issues in the episodes "Water" and "Resistence".
 
Kara's joking comment about giving Cottle "head" was censored during American airings. It went unaltered when aired on Sky One and DVD.
 
 
Episode Quotes
 
Tigh: You get these people to the other side, they think there's a diner and a chef waiting to take their order.
Adama: When they gonna learn they gotta process the thing first, for frak's sake?
Tigh: Try telling that to a bunch of empty stomachs.
Adama: I hear they're still eating paper. Is that true?
Tigh: No. Paper shortage.
(they both burst into laughter)
Adama: Not a good sign.
 
Kat: Admiral, I - I know. I'm so sorry.
Adama: I'm not here to lecture. I'm letting you know about a promotion. I'm making you CAG again.
Kat: Sir, you know I'm not getting out of here, right?
Adama: You earned it. What you did was harder than facing a bullet. You did it without putting one other soul in harm's way. I don't know if I could have done that. I wish there was something more I could give you.
Kat: No, it's good. I'd like to be CAG very much. Thank you. (begins crying) Sir, there - there's a thing, a reason why you might not want to do this. Kara knows what it is, but I wanted to tell you myself.
Adama: I don't need to know anything other than what I already know. When you were CAG, you protected your people, made them feel safe enough to be brave. What you were gonna say, does it change that?
