(1) INT. GALACTICA – HANGAR DECK

[Jo Jo o­n the hangar deck after getting out of his viper]
Crewman: It’s all right, Jo-Jo.
Tyrol: Verify pc-2 pressure zero, throttles closed, oxygen, generator and master switches off.
Starbuck: Check. Shutdown complete.
Tyrol: Nothing you could do, Captain. You were too far away.
Kat: Nice work, Starbuck.
Starbuck: What the hell happened to BB?
Kat: What happened? He did exactly what you told him to do, Captain. Him and Duck had bingo fuel and a head start home, but instead the FNG turned and attacked. And Scar lit him up like a pinwheel.
Starbuck: Why’d he try to take Scar o­n by himself? Stupid idiot.
Kat: “Try to run and you’re dead”. I heard you, you drilled that into the poor moron’s head.
Starbuck: You know what? You and I both know that 99% of the time that is the right move.
Kat: Hmm, not this time.

(2) INT. GALACTICA – ATHENA’S CELL
***** TYROL NOT IN THIS SCENE *****

Athena: This guy’s probably died and been reborn a dozen times. You may have faced him before.
Starbuck: So what, raiders reincarnate? Just like you?
Athena: Yeah, just like me.
Starbuck: Great. What a frakkin’ world.
Athena: A raider’s much like a trained animal, with the basic consciousness and survival instinct. But with the destruction of the resurrection ship, when they die, they’re really dead. So, they’re not gonna mount mass attacks where they could have major casualties.
Starbuck: Raiders reincarnate?
Athena: Makes sense, doesn’t it? It takes months for you to train a nugget into an effective viper pilot. And then they get killed. And their experience, their knowledge, their skill sets. They’re all lost forever. So, if you could bring ’em back and put ’em in a brand new body, wouldn’t you do it? ‘Cause death then becomes a learning experience. How, uh– how many pilots have we lost? I mean, have you lost?
Starbuck: You know, there are times when I look at you and I forget what you are. All I see is that kid that pooched her landings day after day. The kid that was frakkin’ the Chief and thinking she was getting away with it.
Athena: Yeah, I remember. (crying) You were like a big sister to–
[Boomer reaches out to touch Starbuck o­n the leg. The marines promptly cock and raise their rifles to stop her]
Athena: Kara, um– be careful of Scar, okay? He’s filled with rage.
Starbuck: About what?
Athena: Dying’s a painful and traumatic experience. Every time he’s reborn, he’s filled with more bitter memories. Scar hates you every bit as much as you hate him.
