- Admiral William Adama: [to Starbuck] You were like a daughter to me once. No more. You're a malcontent and a cancer, and I won't have you on my ship. So you have a choice. You can figure out how to become a human being again and an officer, or you can find another place to live, off of this ship. You're dismissed.
- Chief Petty Officer Galen Tyrol: How'd you land this thing, Captain?
- Captain Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace: Pointed it toward the deck and stopped when I got here.
- Admiral William Adama: [to Kara and Tigh] Now one of you, and I don't care who, pick that weapon up and shoot me.
- Captain Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace: Admiral, I don't know...
- Admiral William Adama: I didn't say to talk. You've done enough of that already. I said to pick up that weapon and shoot. What's the matter? No guts. You don't got a pair? You're both frakking cowards.
- Captain Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace: [to Julia Prynne] You seem like a really nice person so I'm gonna be honest with you. The last thing I need is a 2-year-old friend and Kacey sure as hell does not need me in her life. So do us both a favor and do not bring her around here again, okay?
