Penultimate Battlestar Galactica

My Gods, really? Only one episode left?

We get flashbacks of Caprica City before the nukes.

Laura hosts a baby shower for her younger sister. The next day, police come to her home to tell her that her two sisters and her father have been killed in a car accident. Dagger.

Lee meets Starbuck for the first time when he comes over for dinner with her and his brother.

Baltar's hiring hookers, one of whom is his Six. He also has a slightly crazy father who attacks his nurse. Of course, Baltar's slightly crazy too, and they do a lot of yelling at and hitting each other.

Back in the present day, Galactica is being packed up and stripped in preparation to be shut down. Starbuck is still trying to interpret her musical notes, with Sam's comatose non-help. Adama asks for volunteers for a rescue mission - "likely to be a one-way trip" - to save Half-Breed Hera. Sam told him that Hera's on the Cylon colony, so that's where they're headed. The colony is hidden within an asteroid field near a black hole, so it's extra hard to get to. There is only one position that's safe to jump to.

To be continued.
