BSG: 3×03: Exodus (Part 1)

(1) THE DETAINEE GROUP (02:13 – 03:17)
***** TYROL NOT IN THIS SCENE *****

Jammer: (wearing his balaclava) You. Over here.
[Pulls Cally off to the side; cuts her zip cuffs]
Jammer: Run. Run, don’t look back. Go!
[She rolls down a steep bluff. Gets to her feet and runs. As she continues to run, Centurions appear over a hill and draw their guns on the detainees. Zarek pulls Roslin back into the group, the NCP and Cylons hide behind the trucks. Cally runs as the guns open fire]

ONE HOUR PRIOR TO THE END OF 3×02 PRECIPICE

(2) INT. TIGH TENT (03:17 – 05:22)

[Tigh replaces his eye bandage]
Ellen: Can I help you? Here we go.
Tigh: Thanks.
Ellen: Sorry.
Tigh: No, that’s all right. It doesn’t hurt. I appreciate you doing this. I can’t seem to get it right in the mirror.
Ellen: Saul. Um, I want you to know that I would do anything for you.
Tigh: Yeah
[Chief enters, distraught]
Tyrol: The list. Cally’s on the list. They’re gonna kill her.
Tigh: What list?
Tyrol: They’re gonna kill her.
Tigh: What are you talking about?
Tyrol: I got this. I got this from the dead drop, from the source in the administration. It’s a death list and Cally’s name is on it.
[Tyrol passes him the list. Ellen watches]
Tyrol: They’re rounding up people in the city. Cally’s already in the detention, they could take her out at any minute, and then just…
Tigh: They got this organized by transport vehicles. Cally’s in the group heading for map coordinate X-ray seven.
Tyrol: I know. Where the frak is that? I mean, how are we gonna…
Tigh: Calm down, damnit. You gotta start thinking clearly here, Chief, or she’s dead. Now we’ve already figured out their map coordinate system. It’s referred to in the list of Cylon freqs you got from the last dead drop.
Tyrol: Holy frak! You’re right. I can extrapolate the coordinate system…
Tigh: Cally’s group has to pick up a bunch of people in town first. That’ll take time. Take four men and get out there ahead of the trucks.
[Tyrol turns to leave]
Tigh: Chief! Pull it together. You won’t do her any good if you get caught too. Besides, the last thing your son wants is me and Ellen for parents. Find that list, Chief.
[Ellen embraces Tigh, scared]

(3) INT. INSURGENT BUNKER (06:08 – 06:48)

[Tyrol frantically searches for the frequency list]
Tyrol: Where the frak is it? Damnit! Gods damnit! Where’s that frakkin’ list? Okay, it’s gotta be here. It’s gotta be here. That’s it. That’s it, okay. Damnit! Come on! Here it is. Okay, X-ray 7-1-4-3…

(4) EXT. NEW CAPRICA STREET (06:48 – 07:09)

Seelix: Hey, Chief. Good day for a walk, huh?
Tyrol: Get two men together. We’re going to Pergamus Flats.
[They watch the transports roll out]

(5) EXT. PERGAMUS FLATS – CYLON EXECUTION SITE (08:46 – 09:29)

Tyrol: (whispering) There’s the trucks. Tell ’em to move down to the ridge. Move down to the ridge. Crispin, you here? This is it. Lock and load.
[Tyrol Looks at the transports through binoculars]
Tyrol: All right. What do we see? Oh, frak me.
Seelix: What?
Tyrol: They got Laura Roslin and Tom Zarek with ’em.
Seelix: Is there any sign of Cally?
Tyrol: Not yet.

(6) EXT. PERGAMUS FLATS – CYLON EXECUTION SITE (09:43 – 10:20)

Tyrol: (Sighs) Oh, there she is. There she is. Oh, my Gods, there she is. What the frak’s she doing? She’s making a run for it.
Seelix: The bulletheads are lining up.
Tyrol: It’s a firing squad. Sight in on the Centurions, right now!
Seelix: Cally’s right in our line of fire. If we shoot, we’re gonna hit her.
Tyrol: Then count to five and open fire.
[Tyrol runs for Cally]

(7) EXT. PERGAMUS FLATS – CYLON EXECUTION SITE (10:48 – 11:10)

Seelix: One thousand one… one thousand two… one thousand three… one thousand four… one thousand five.
[Tyrol reaches Cally and pushes her down; the squad opens fire on the Centurions. Roslin grabs Zarek and pulls him down the bluff with her]

(8) EXT. PERGAMUS FLATS – CYLON EXECUTION SITE (11:24 – 11:35)

Tyrol: Shh, shh, shh.

(9) EXT. PERGAMUS FLATS – CYLON EXECUTION SITE (12:27 – 12:35)

[Seelix cutting zip ties. Chief walking in back ground]

(10) EXT. PERGAMUS FLATS – CYLON EXECUTION SITE (13:10 – 13:42)

Tyrol: You all right down there?
Roslin: Oh, my Gods! It’s good to see you, Chief.
Tyrol: Good to see you too, ma’am.
Cally: What happens now? Where do we go from here?
Tyrol: We’re going home. (To Roslin and Zarek.) We’re going home. Admiral Adama’s on his way. We’re getting off this rock, we’re going back to Galactica.

(11) INT. INSURGENT BUNKER (33:28 – 34:59)

Chief: We’ve stored arms and munitions in key areas throughout the city.
Mathias: I can supplement that with mortars, RPGs, even a few shoulder-mounted anti-aircraft missiles aboard the Raptor.
Chief: Great. So, when we give the signal, our people are gonna attack the airbase, the detention center, the power station, other critical facilities. The plan is to sow as much chaos and confusion as possible the moment Galactica and Pegasus arrive. Should help cover the evacuation.
Mathias: No Pegasus. Just Galactica.
Roslin: Why? Why no Pegasus? What happened?
Mathias: Don’t know, sir. Way beyond my pay grade. What about your evac plans?
Tory: We’ve designated and assigned 500 block captains to cover each sector of the city. Each block captain is responsible for rallying and guiding the people in his or her sector along their escape route to their designated ship.
Zarek: Don’t suppose you’ve been able to rehearse any of this.
Roslin: Indeed. We’ve had three full-dress rehearsals under the guise of fire and natural disaster drills.
Mathias: Be different when the balloon goes up. Explosions, shooting, chaos. There’s gonna be some panic out there.
Roslin: they’ll do fine. These people know that at some point, they’re gonna be responsible for saving themselves. All we need to do is be ready and hope for the best. (Quieter, to Anders.) What about Maya and Isis?
Anders: I’m on it. I’ve got my two best shooters here. They’re gonna be their escorts and make sure they get back to the ship.
Roslin: Gentlemen, I can’t tell you why, but it is imperative that this woman and her child get off this planet. I trust you because I trust him.
Ellen: (runs up) Saul!
Connor: We need to talk.
[Tigh stares]

(12) EXT. NEW CAPRICA CITY (38:58 – 39:57)

Athena: Launch keys don’t seem to have been damaged. And from all the data points, it looks like the ships all still have enough tylium to make at least one jump. Congratulations, by the way. I heard it’s a boy.
Tyrol: Oh.
Athena: What’s his name?
Tyrol: Uh… Nicholas, after Cally’s grandfather.
Athena: Hey, Chief? You remember when you helped Helo spread Hera’s ashes?
Tyrol: Mmm-hmmm.
Athena: You actually saw the ashes?
Tyrol: Yeah, of course. Why?
Athena: Nothing. Just make sure Cally never lets her kid out of her sight.
[She walks away]
