Don't be ▒▓▒▓ing idiots. Get to medbay or somewhere not en▒▓neering! Trust me, you don't want a▒▓ of what's here.

I need my engineering cr▒▓ on deck though. Stay together, stay safe. Find Fitz, stick with him. He'll ▒▓▓▒▒▒

We still have more here than we did in the Colonial Fleet. And thousands of times more civilians.

Did your Fleet survive more than a few months?

[oh. oh. sweetie. Laura just gives the most "aren't you cute" look.]

three years and counting.

[take that Baltar.]

if you want references, I can provide four on this ship. [Caprica would so back her up. right?]

Re: voice;

I don't want references.

[ HE'LL SHOW YOU CUTE. ]

I want a plan. I'd settle for a fraction of one. We have limited resources. We can't stop for more without risking the lives of whomever we come into contact with. If keeping the ship away from Van Rijn is worth slowly starving to death, let's leave less to chance and blow the bloody thing up.

[Sure you don't want references? She could get you the "Cool under pressure" reference. The "great in bed" reference, the "well I just tried to rebel against her and she had me killed" reference. Cold as ice.]

We jump. Even if we do it blind. If possible, as we do it, send all we've got- nukes if we have them- to their biggest ship. That will buy us more time, for them to recover, once we've made the jump. We have limited resources, but we can make the most of them. Cultivate more in the gardens, find a way to get livestock on board and start farming.

[She's only done this before.]
