BSG - 4×02Battlestar Galactica

After Starbuck holds the President hostage and fails to persuade her to change her mind about their current direction, she’s thrown into the brig again. There, she insists that if they continue jumping she will lose her way to earth and they will never find their way back. The Admiral is torn between trusting his logic or his heart when it comes to deciding Starbuck’s fate. Meanwhile, Lee “Apollo” Adama leaves Galactica for a career in the government and gives up his life as a Viper Pilot and a Major.

The four cylons aboard Galactica are still unsure what role they’re going to play in all that is happening while trouble is brewing among the dominant cylons. After the raiders have retreated without the command of the dominant cylons, they have put a vote to re-program the raiders and make “fix” whatever was the matter with them. The Sixes, Leobens and Sharons believe that the other 5 cylons (which they’re not supposed to think of) are among the human fleet but the Cavils refuse to believe them. After being out-voted, one of the Six models takes out the Centurion’s command control chip and causes mutiny by having the Centurions kill copies of Cavils, Dorals and Simons.

Overall, the episode was a solid 8.5/10. I quite enjoyed the scene with Gaius and head Gaius talking …
