[Soft instrumental music] It may be a while before I get this back to you. It's a gift. Never lend books. Well, then thank you for the gift. I'm really looking forward to working with you, Doctor. - You have a friend. - As am I, Lieutenant. I actually studied genetics in college. I was planning on going for my graduate degree... through the military extension program. Wonderful. Is that a card game? And the girl wins again. Another round? Come on, guys. Grace under pressure. Nothing like losing a little money to take your mind off those 14-hour patrols. - Mind if I sit in, Lieutenant? - lf you got the cubits, we've got the chair. Of course if you've got anything to drink, we'll take that in lieu of cash. You know I don't have any money, but... this jacket must be worth at least 15 cubits. It's made of the finest Caprican cloth, warm in winter, cooling in summer. It'd look great on you. Anybody else got any civilian clothes they'd be interested in putting on the table? [Rapping on table] Don't let me keep you. Col. Tigh was right. Rioting broke out on a cruise ship when they reduced water rations. We need to demonstrate an ability to maintain order. We need to do it now. We don't have extra manpower for fleet security. You have the only armed, disciplined force available. Yeah, but I'm not going to be your policeman. There's a reason why you separate military and the police. One fights the enemy of the state. The other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both... then the enemies of the state tend to become the people. I appreciate the complexity of the issue and I won't let that happen. - I'll send troops to the cruise ship. - Commander, I won't let that happen. [Suspenseful instrumental music] - Beginning dradis one sweep. - Beginning dradis two sweep. So I'm thinking we should give this lovely little rock of nothing a name. - I'm thinking "Kimiko." - "Kimiko"? After a lovely little lady, in a lovely little city, in a lovely little colony... - that I used to know. - Whatever. [Dramatic instrumental music] [Electronic beeping] [Music intensifies] Sorry. So sorry. You had such a good run, though. Looks like the bet's to me. BALTAR: I'll try and muddle through for another round. I'm going to raise you five. No guts, no glory, Doctor. I'll see your five... and raise you 20. Now it's just you and me. I'm not used to playing in this kind of high-stakes game. STARBUCK: It's not too late to bow out. Now there's an excellent suggestion. And before proceeding any further... I should really examine my motivations for doing so. Staying in the game, I run the risk of losing my entire stake... and being humiliated in front of these lovely people. "Humiliated" is a such a strong word. "Embarrassed" would be my choice. You do play rough, don't you? STARBUCK: A little too rough for you. My hand's not that strong. It wouldn't take much to knock me out of the game. Well, thank you, Doctor. [Starbuck giggling] However, without a little risk... life would be so dull, wouldn't it? Calling. [Clears throat] Three on a run. BALTAR: Full colours. [Pilots cheering] Thank you all for a most pleasant evening. A parting gift. BALTAR: Hand-rolled from some of the finest fumarello leaf in Caprica. And it's also one of the last left in the universe. Thank you. My pleasure. [Baltar coughing] Excuse me. The Raptors have reported back after three star systems. - So far, all report negative for water, sir. - I just checked with Astrometrics. They're coming up with big goose eggs. There's no star systems within the range of our telescopes... with planetary bodies likely to have water on them. Sir. Another Raptor just checked in. Negative on water as well. ADAMA: Who's left? DUALLA: Boomer and Crashdown, sir. If they come up negative as well... what's our back-up plan? We'll jump to another sector ------------------------------ Читайте также: - текст Земля Санникова на английском - текст Золотой мальчик на английском - текст Клятва на английском - текст Космические дальнобойщики на английском - текст Окраина на английском |
