Quotes 

• Dr. Ravashol : If you and your battlestar hadn't intruded upon this quadrant, all would still be peaceful.

  Captain Apollo : We didn't have a choice; the Cylons forced us here. Don't you understand? The Cylons are out to destroy every human in the universe! Eventually even you will go!

  Dr. Ravashol : They let me live! They understand my work! All you want to do is destroy everything I've created! Before you came everything was in its proper place, planners to think, workers to work...

  Captain Apollo : I've got news for you, Doctor. Your workers are *thinking*, and breeding.

• Dr. Ravashol : The Galactica is a vessel of war. I have no use for war or violence in any form.

  Captain Apollo : You have a strange way of showing it. What do you call that monstrosity on the mountain, a weapon of peace?

  Dr. Ravashol : It is an energy lens system designed to transmit intelligence agross the galaxy.

  Captain Apollo : Your energy lens system has fried two of my fighters.

• Captain Apollo : For the glory of Caprica! For once in your life, don't be late, Starbuck...

• Captain Apollo : [after action]  Let's go home! Let's go, Starbuck!

  Lieutenant Starbuck : [looking at the female clones]  Captain! Wait, wait, wait! This is the chance of a lifetime. Three versions of the same beautiful woman. I mean, can you imagine the possibilities?

  Captain Apollo : I can imagine.

  Lieutenant Starbuck : [hopefully]  You can?

  Captain Apollo : Yeah. Another time.

  Lieutenant Starbuck : [stammering excuses]  Captain...

  Tenna : [in unison with her two doubles]  Bye.

  [all three waving and Starbuck can just wave back wistfully] 

  Lieutenant Boomer : Well, win one, lose one.

  Lieutenant Starbuck : I just lost all three.

• Croft : So you're not turning us in to the Ceylons?

  Tenna : No. We hate the Ceylons.

  Ser 5-9 : We are Theta-class life forms. Considered by the Ceylons to be subhuman.

  Tenna : We were created for slave labor. Most of our brothers and sisters are still slaves in the village.

  Captain Apollo : And you're revolting?

  Ser 5-9 : Evidently, we are not perfect.

  Captain Apollo : No, just human.
