Number Seven, Daniel, was a favorite of Ellen. Jealous, John sabotaged the process of using Resurrection on Daniel, making him unique. John and Ellen start a months-long philosophical and ethical argument on Cylon - human interaction. John says he started the genocide of humankind because his "forebears on the Centaurion side of the family were the slaves of humanity." And he wants justice for that. Present Day: Anders tells Starbuck that he has seen "everything" and needs Kara to get "the others" - Galen, Tory, Saul and Ellen to his bedside. Anders says he remembers everything and knows why they have come all the way to Earth... Adama reinstates Tyrol as a Chief of Engineering. Tyrol starts inspecting the damage Galactica has taken during their journey. But he is not prepared for what he finds and Adama is not prepared for what Tyrol suggests as a repair method.

Original Air Date—20 February 2009
Chief Tyrol has started repairs on Galactica using Cylon quasi-living resin. A Six gets into a fight with humans. Tigh and Caprica Six have Dr. Cottle inspect their unborn baby in ultrasound and it's just fine. At the same time, a raptor that's been missing over a year approaches the Fleet. It is brought aboard Galactica, where Roslin, Adama, Starbuck, Lee and others present are shocked to see Ellen come out, escorted by an Eight. Tyrol is able to identify the Eight as Boomer. Adama orders her taken to the brig. Then Tigh arrives and Ellen shares a passionate kiss with him. Ellen tells Adama, Roslin, Tigh and Lee that Cavil wants her and the Final Four to rebuild Resurrection. She also asks to see the others who survived the genocide of humans on the now desolate Earth. Tigh tells her he remembers only flashes of the ancient past. Lee breaks the news that Anders is not responding. Ellen and Saul get some private quality time, but for a moment he sees Caprica Six instead of Ellen. Baltar returns to his followers, who are taking care of themselves after the mutiny. What they also seem to have, is a new leader figure... Saul finally manages to tell Ellen that he's involved with Caprica Six. Soon Ellen gets the chance to have a reunion she asked for, around Anders' bed. A Six and an Eight are present and suggest that the Final Four join the Cylons on the Base Star. Tory says it is the way to ensure the survival of the 13th Tribe. Ellen disagrees. In her mind, Hera is the hope for a new, "blended future". Then Tory breaks to Ellen the news that Caprica Six is pregnant...
