Interception of Cylon Tankers

The Interception of Cylon Tankers is an engagement between s and s during a planned interception of two Cylon Tankers before they arrive at Gamoray. This is the first of only two joint operations between and ' Viper squadrons.
==Planning==
A meeting of Commanders Cain and convenes on Galactica, during which a plan is proposed by Adama to intercept Cylon Tankers to provide desperately needed fuel for . Cain agrees to the plan reluctantly, preferring to seize fuel by attacking the base on Gamoray instead. 
Adama also orders the combination of Galactica and Pegasus' Silver Spar Squadron in order to boost morale and further integrate the two fighting forces. Cain initially objects on the basis of Silver Spar's greater experience in such hit-and-run attacks, but later concedes to Adama's order while boasting that his Warriors would be glad to pass along their experience to Galactica Warriors. 
==Operation==
During pre-launch aboard Pegasus, Lieutenant Sheba discovers that Commander Cain has joined the mission, effectively assuming command of the operation. This also surprises the pilots of Galactica Blue Squadron who were also uninformed about Cain's participation. 
Prior to detecting the tankers, Cain noted that he could "sense them" before they appear on scanners. 
Cain orders the two squadrons to split up in two groups. When closing to the Cylon tankers directly Blue Squadron is intercepted by Cylon Raiders by surprise. Blue Squadron seems at the mercy of the Cylons until Silver Spar Squadron engages. The tide turns and only two raiders get the chance to try an escape. Cain orders Blue Squadron to pursue the fugitives while he goes off to take care of the tankers. 
Cain destroys the tankers against orders, deliberately hoping to force Adama's hand in attacking Gamoray. Following Apollo's return to the tankers' last location and noting that Cain had been attacking, Cain informs the disbelieving Apollo that he had been firing at a Cylon fighter, claiming it to have been "clear as the Nubian sun" .
== Aftermath ==
The after-action report notes that the tankers were destroyed by "incidental fire," which had been supported by Pegasus pilots, including Sheba. However, Adama saw through this and Cain's destruction of the tankers briefly cost him command of Pegasus replacing him with Colonel . Refusing to attack Gamoray, Adama orders the distribution of Pegasus burgeoning reserves amongst the Fleet. 
With Adama's refusal to attack Gamoray, the sole survivors of the Colonies might well have ended near the Krillian Star System without any fuel in a hopeless battle with 's three . Fortunately, Adama's caution and Cain's "tactical wizardry" save the day.
== Notes ==
* Pegasus executed similar operations in the past in order to secure fuel and other war materiel to hassle the Cylons.
==Unanswered Questions==
* Why don't the Cylons scuttle their tankers during the engagement? Was an attempt made to do so?
* Why did the last two Raiders retreat instead of trying to destroy the tankers?

Interception of the A-B Raider

While patrolling the flight corridors leading to Earth, Captain Kanon and Lieutenant Briton of Recon Probe Delta encounter an advanced Cylon craft. After engaging the ship in battle, and noting that the Cylons look humanoid, they determine that they must disable it before it reaches Earth. The pilots determine that the Viper cannot destroy the craft with firepower alone, since the Cyon ship is too fast and too well armed. 
Knowing that the ship's present course would bring it to Earth, Kanon has no choice but to ram the ship, which causes the ship to crash land on Earth. The crash results in the destruction of Andromidus, an advanced Cylon form that looks humanoid, and three Centurions. 
. 
== Analysis ==
The Cylons have a new craft was previously seen in "The Super Scouts, Part I" leading an attack on the Delphi. However, the ship was apparently still unknown to the Colonials before Recon Probe Delta's encounter.

Interrogation drug

A military interrogation drug is used on Gaius Baltar after his return to Galactica, once he has demonstrated that he is basically unaffected by various other interrogation techniques.
It is Admiral Adama's suggestion to use the drug, described as a hallucinogen that creates a high level of anxiety in the subject, generating a feeling that their survival is at stake. 
The drug is injected into one of the subject's carotid arteries, which supply blood directly to the brain, and appears to take effect relatively quickly. Initially the subject is rendered unconscious, but soon awakes in a pliable state. Baltar sees himself in the midst of a dark ocean, with Adama's voice being his only lifeline.
Adama shows some skill in using this method, likely having been trained in its use. Doctor Cottle, on the other hand, appears to disapprove; he terminates the session when Baltar begins to go into distress, calling it a "freak show" .
==Notes==
*The secret experiments with hallucinogenic drugs for purposes of interrogation parallels the CIA's MK ULTRA program from the 1960s and 1970s. In that program, LSD was investigated as a possible "truth serum".
*Adama speaks of "drugs" in the plural, meaning that the interrogation drug is actually a mix of several compounds. If these are common drugs, it explains why Galactica has an apparently secret and experimental drug aboard.

Invasion of Cygnus

The discovery of vast quantities of on a far-out planetoid attracts the attention of the , resulting in an invasion and seizure of the vital military asset. 
== Brief ==
Sela's tylium mining business is modestly successful, yielding sufficient quantities of tylium to be reasonably profitable. The discovery of an untapped vein of tylium ore by Sela's prospector, Temon, between to changes that. 
The Cylon Empire learns of the Colonials' discovery of this untapped, wealthy vein of tylium, a vital resource used by both parties during the long, "," and invade the minimally protected planetoid.
Any humans remaining on Cygnus are converted into a work-force to mine the tylium for the Cylons, and this continues until the Colonial military reclaims Cygnus approximately a decade later (). 
== Aftermath ==
The Cylon Empire usurps the natural resources of Cygnus, leaving the Colonials reliant on tylium consortiums, like those operated by , to secure and establish alternate tylium supply lines ().

Ionian Nebula

The Ionian Nebula is a supernova remnant located approximately 13,000 light years distant from the algae planet.
In their search for the Eye of Jupiter's purpose and symbolism, Lieutenant Gaeta discovers that a nova occurred in the Ionian system which would have been observed 4,000 years ago on ancient , around the time of the Thirteenth Tribe's exodus. The timing of the nova with the Thirteenth Tribe's journey and its resemblance to the algae planet system's nova suggests to Gaeta that the Tribe's next marker is the Ionian Nebula .
When the Fleet reaches the nebula, every ship suffers an abrupt power outage. With the Fleet helplessly adrift and without DRADIS, four Cylon baseships also jump to the nebula and launch Raiders. Galactica detects the baseships after power is partially restored, but the Fleet's civilian ships are slower to recover and are unable to make an immediate FTL jump. Galactica responds by launching all its s to intercept the Raiders, and Admiral Adama authorizes the use of nuclear weapons against the baseships. Sortied to defend against the incoming Cylon attack, picks up a mysterious, intermittent DRADIS contact and breaks off to intercept it. The bogey leads him on a chase through the nebula's dust clouds and, after outmaneuvering Adama's Viper Mark VII, pulls up along him portside. Much to his surprise, the unknown contact is the presumed-dead piloting an unusually pristine Viper Mark II .
During the following battle, the Cylons inflict damage of the civilian ships, destroying Pyxis and damaging several other vessels, but unexpectedly retreat, apparently after finding out that the Final Five have been activated when one Raider scans ' Viper .
== Hallucinations ==
While the Fleet moves closer to the nebula, Saul Tigh, Galen Tyrol, Samuel Anders and Tory Foster experience mutual musical hallucinations. When the Fleet arrives, they are drawn together and come to realize that they are Cylons (four of the final five models). As a group they are able to piece together the song's melody.
Moreover, Laura Roslin, and Caprica-Six share a common dream of chasing Hera in each other's presence at the Opera House. Almost immediately after arriving and coinciding with the power loss, Roslin becomes dazed or stunned, possibly because of her use of chamalla extract to induce prescient visions as in the past .
== Notes ==
* When an imaginary camera pulls away from the nebula into deep space, it re-enters the galaxy at roughly the same point it exited and zooms to Earth, indicating that Earth and the nebula are not very far apart on a galactic scale.
* Ionia was an ancient region of southwestern coastal Anatolia (in present-day Turkey, the region nearest İzmir,) on the Aegean Sea, which was said to be founded by Ion, son of Apollo.
* In reality, the Ionian Nebula resembles NGC 2440, which is located 4,000 light-years away from Earth.

Iphigenia

Lieutenant Iphigenia is the 21-year-old daughter of Bryn Magus and sister of Paulus. She and William Adama are lovers; with her blonde hair and freckles, Iphigenia is described as looking like Adama's ideal counterpart.
Iphi was born in the city of Petaville on Caprica. An attractive and dynamic woman, Iphigenia usually went by her nickname ‘Iphi’. A fighter pilot aboard Galactica, she serves under the direct command of Magus. Her older brother Paulus also flies as a pilot in Blue Wing. A military ‘brat’, she has a wild streak and a flippant sense of humor that seem at odds with her uncanny skills as a pilot; Iphigenia frequently flirts with other male flyers, but in the thick of battle she is all business.
She prefers carefully-planned strategic attacks to tactical strikes, and knows that it will be successful strategies, and not random acts of pilot bravery, that would win the Cylon War for the Colonials. As such, she is at odds with her squad mate Garris Cain.
Iphigenia is killed in battle with Cylon forces. 
Iphigenia's callsign was 'Angel' and her Viper designation was Blue Two. 
==Notes==
*This character is part of a separate continuity that mixes elements from the Re-imagined Series and as well as unique material. It is not a canonical item in either series.
*In the , Commander Adama had married Ila. In the Re-imagined Series, the character of William Adama married Carolanne Adama.
*Iphigenia was voiced in the game by actress Kristanna Loken. Loken had a starring role in the feature film, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, where she portrays a robot agent who, similarly to humanoid Cylons in the Re-imagined Series, is a machine soldier in a war between humanity and a genocidal machine intelligence.

Jack

During the destruction unleashed on the city of Caprica, Education Secretary Laura Roslin asks the captain of her starliner, Colonial Heavy 798 to contact the Ministry for Civil Defense to ask what they could do to help in the crisis.
The captain alerts Roslin to a successful communications link with someone on Caprica. Roslin speaks with Jack, presumed to be a government official as he is aware of key events that have occurred in the wake of the Cylon attack on the Colonies.
:Jack: "Thank god you're not here, Laura. Thank god! I've never seen anything like it!"
:Laura Roslin: "Jack... where is the president?"
:Jack: "... there's people wandering the streets..."
:Roslin: "Where is the president, Jack?... is he alive?"
:Jack: "I don't know.. I think so... we hear all kinds of things."
:Roslin: "Have the Cylons made any demands? Do we know what they want?"
:Jack: "No...no contact, I'm pretty sure about that..."
:Roslin: "Has anyone discussed... has anyone discussed the possibility of surrender? Has it been considered?"
:Jack: "After Picon was nuked, the president offered a complete unconditional surrender. The Cylons didn't even respond!"
With that, the captain of the transport interrupts Roslin with news from Captain (flying escort in his father's old restored Viper) of a Cylon incoming missile. Jack is never heard from again in the miniseries, nor does Roslin speak again with any other surviving government officials. Later, Roslin is appointed to the office of the President of the Twelve Colonies by emergency succession .
== Notes ==
In an early draft of the miniseries, Jack is apparently another secretary in the Colonial government.
