Plot Summary

Battlestar Galactica's crew hasn't slept in 250 hours, as they race to escape the Cylons. Every 33 minutes -- the time it takes the Cylons to follow -- the entire fleet makes a Faster Than Light jump. Baltar panics when Dr. Anaorak contacts President Roslin from aboard the Olympic Carrier, claiming to have information about the Cylon attack. Roslin wishes to meet with him after the next jump is completed, but on arrival at the new coordinates the Carrier is missing. It reappears 33 minutes later, but the Cylons do not follow. When the Carrier does not respond to communications, it is discovered that there is a nuclear warhead onboard, and Starbuck and Apollo are ordered to shoot the carrier out of the sky, despite the possibility that the 1300 passengers are still alive.

Lingering Questions

  • Did Helo even wonder why Sharon shot the Number Six who was about to kiss him? He had no idea there were human-form Cylons at the time, so he should presumably have been shocked by the cold-blooded murder of one of the only people he'd seen alive on Caprica....
  • *She was obviously a Cylon collaborator.

This is definitely one of my favorites. It really captures the sense of urgency and despair that a few of the later episodes are lacking.
