confidential.
[Door closes]
There is at least one Cylon
aboard the Galactica.
[Tense instrumental music continues]
How many people know
the Cylons look human?
The rumour mill's been working overtime.
Half the ship's talking about it.
There'll always be rumours.
For most people, that's all they'll ever be.
I'm asking how many people actually know?
TIGH: The five people in this room,
plus three Marines.
ROSLIN: Let's keep it that way.
Once this gets out officially...
people will be accusing each other
of being Cylons for no reason at all.
I agree. Dr. Baltar,
how're we doing on the screenings?
The screenings?
You were supposed to be screening
Galactica crew for potential Cylon agents.
NO. 6: Do you remember
the first time you lied to a woman?
Other than your mother, that is.
BALTAR: Other than my mother.
Sherry Bennett. Fourth grade.
On the playground, behind the band room.
"If you show me yours, I'll show you mine."
She did. I did not.
You know, I think I slept with her actually,
many years later, of course.
NO. 6: Of course.
[Tense instrumental music]
NO. 6: Did she turn out to be
a beautiful woman?
As a matter of fact, she did.
Very beautiful.
But every woman has her beauty...
her feminine charms that are hers
and hers alone.
ADAMA: Doctor?
Doctor?
BALTAR: The screenings.
To tell you the truth,
there are significant problems...
with implementing
my Cylon detection method...
that I used aboard Galactica previously...
and basically because
I've run out of natural resources.
I need chemical compounds.
For example, the precursor test.
I need large samples of tetrahydrocycline...
which I don't have to tell you...
Maybe I do have to.
BALTAR: It's a highly volatile chemical...
ADAMA: Let me stop you there.
Your intellect obviously outstrips
everyone in this room.
But it's also obvious
by the way that you're talking...
that in order to make
large-scale screenings...
you're going to need help, staff, resources.
Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. Exactly.
Although, more staff?
Someone snooping around,
watching your every move?
Maybe it'll be a woman,
you could find her secret beauty.
ADAMA: I'm going to assign Lt. Gaeta
to aid you...
in anything that you might need.
So much for that.
But the need for secrecy?
Clearly, this falls
into the "absolutely necessary" category.
Your screening techniques
may be critical to our very survival.
Humanity's very survival rests in your hands.
Now, if only you had
an actual Cylon detector.
APOLLO: This is a critical mission.
APOLLO: Fights have already broken out
on some ships over the rations.
There's panic in the air. You don't find water
out there and find it soon...
- I understand, Captain. We'll find it.
- Good hunting.
APOLLO: Hey, Chief.
TYROL: Captain.
- Lieutenant.
- Chief.
I feel like my head's about to explode.
TYROL: Just relax, calm down.
Focus on the mission.
We'll take care of everything
when you get back.
BOOMER: What about the investigation?
Master-at-arms is running it.
Don't worry, there's no connection to you.
In fact, there's no reason to believe
you had anything to do with it at all.
BOOMER: I didn't.
TYROL: I know.
- I would never do something like that. Never.
- Sharon, I know.
It's really important you believe me on this.
- You do believe me, right?
- Absolutely.
TYROL: Yes, sir.
BOOMER: Thank you, Chief. Carry on.
Please excuse me for keeping you waiting.
I was called into the engine room.
It'll just take a moment.
ROSLIN: That's all right.
Sometime I'd like to borrow a book or two.
I only brought one with me
on the flight to Galactica.
ADAMA: What book?
ROSLIN: A Murder on Picon.
ROSLIN: I have a weakness for mystery.
ADAMA: Ever read Dark Day?
Edward Prima. I am embarrassed to say...
it's one of those classics
I've never gotten around to reading.
I think you'll enjoy it.
Thank you.
