Air Date: 9/9/2005

To ease tensions with the civilian fleet, Adama and Roslin give a journalist (Lucy Lawless) complete access to Galactica's overworked pilots and crew. Meanwhile, Col. Tigh receives a death threat; Cottle is called in to treat Cylon Sharon's unborn child; and a Viper pilot (Luciana Carro) loses control of her fighter.

Episode Recap

Adama heads to Kobol to find Roslin, reassembles the fleet and heads down to Kobol himself with most of the key characters (Apollo, Starbuck, Zarek, Billy, Tyrol) to find the presidential party in search of the "tomb of Athena" which allegedly leads to Earth.

The two groups meet, Adama and Roslin make their peace and continue on their expedition. Apollo hangs out with Starbuck , Zarek tries to keep his cronie off plotting with Boomer who is unaware of tension building between Helo and Tyrol.

On arrival at the tomb, a showdown between Boomer, Adama (and Zarek's chum) occurs but the key characters of the group enter the tomb afterwards and find themselves transported to Earth.

Additional Notes

• When Baltar first speaks with Number Six in the holding cell, she is completely nude. After she appears in a jogging outfit and a different hairstyle, Baltar addresses her as Sara, suggesting that this was the name she used on Caprica.

• In this episode we saw that the Arrow of Apollo opened the Tomb of Athena, which led to a map to Earth. The map was a collection of gems representing the constellations of the Zodiac. Starbuck realized that Earth must be the place where one can see all twelve of the constellations at once.
