Battlestar Galactica

Five days have passed since last left Galactica, and in those five days, the Cylons have been chasing our people every step of the way. Every time Galactica and the fleet make a Jump, there is a 33 minute window before the Cylons Jump to their location and the fleet has to Jump away - then another 33 minute respite before the Cylons show up again. How the Cylons are following them and why it takes 33 minutes to make the follow-up Jump are questions no one has the answers to, and all our heroes can do at the moment is keep Jumping and hope that they'll find a way to shake their pursuers.

Something is wrong with Raptor pilot Sharon Valerii. She inexplicably wakes up, soaking wet, inside the Galactica Tool Room with a G-4 detonator in her bag. Totally panicked, she goes to the Small Arms Locker and finds a total of six G-4 bomb detonators missing. What Valerii doesn’t know is that those six G-4 bombs are activated somewhere on Galactica. No one knows. But when they go off, Galactica will be in big trouble.

Lee Adama tries to persuade the Astral Queen, a prison ship, to help pump water onto Galactica. Once on board, however, the prisoners have different plans.

After a flight deck accident kills 13 pilots and wounds many others, Kara is thrust into service as a flight instructor and ordered to turn a group of civilian pilots and academy washouts into full-fledged Viper pilots.

In the aftermath of Episode Four, search and rescue operations are underway for missing Viper pilot Kara Thrace. Sharon Valerii and Crashdown retrieve battered rookie pilot Constanza, but when they bring him back to Galactica, he is foggy on the details and provides only limited information. He claims that Kara was alive when the Cylon Raider hit her, but has no idea where she is now. Commander Adama and Lee Adama don't care how unlikely her chance of survival is - they intend to find Kara and bring her home.

As Galactica passes another seemingly routine night, a man who we know as Doral (the Cylon model who disguised himself as a PR man) stealths his way through the ship with a block of G-4 attached to his chest. When the Cylon-turned suicide bomber finally detonates himself, the actual damage isn't as bad as it could have been (Three are dead, while Commander Adama barely missed the blast's impact thanks to Colonel Tigh's instinct), but the collateral damage will be far worse.
