Episode Quotes |
| |
Baltar: Mr. Tyrol. Mr. Tyrol. I know that we have had our differences, but I am begging you right now to set those aside. Come down here and take my hand. If not for yourself, then for your wife. For Cally. She would've wanted this.
Tyrol: Cally wasn't like me. She forgave you for New Caprica. Even read your bogus manifesto, but not me. You may have your sheep fooled. They may be buying into your message of forgiveness, but let me tell you, there are some sins that even your imaginary God can never forgive.
Baltar: I have not been talking about an imaginary God. I am asking you to take my hand. Take my hand, Mr. Tyrol. For Cally. It's what she would've wanted.
(Tyrol reaches out and begins choking Baltar as his followers try to help him)
Baltar: Leave him! Leave him!
(the two are seperated)
Tyrol: You didn't know her! | Kara: I'm not really very good at any of this. We've all come to remember Sgt. Erin Mathias, to grieve for our loss, to honour her. Mathias is dead because of me. We've all heard the words, the prayers, but I don't know what any of it means anymore. We want to believe that she died for something. But in this war, people die and it is just stupid. It's an accident. There's no nobility to it. There's nothing we can grab onto that's gonna make it any easier. They're just gone. I have to live with that. | Baltar: Look, Chief, I... I'm here to ask for your forgiveness about my presumption earlier. You were right, you know. I hardly knew your wife. I'm sorry. Would you mind if I just, uh... (sits down) I know it's hard to make sense of things sometimes. In my own life... In my own life, I joined the fleet as a scientist, as a sceptic, as a supposedly a man of reason. Only to have fate turn that all on its head. But I understand now that there is a purpose to it. We change. We evolve. Maybe we even learn something along the way. I have committed unconscionable crimes, and I have been offered one last chance at redemption, because I chose to accept my fate, not fight it anymore. I'm so sorry for your lost, Chief. She was a very beautiful woman, your wife. I'm also told quite spiritual. You know, I don't expect you to believe me, but I would've very much have liked to know her better.
(Tyrol extends his hand and Baltar takes it)
Baltar: Thank you. |
