01: Video

[The screen turns on to show Felix, new to the barge and newly free of the breach. He's standing in the middle of a metal room, the walls honeycombed with bunk beds -- industrial in appearance, but spaced with a certain military precision.

As with the breach, he's missing the lower half of his right leg. But now, he has a clunky-looking metal prosthetic attached, extending down to a black boot, and he leans on a single forearm crutch instead of the awkward things he relied on back in town. He's neat and trimmed and wearing some kind of uniform.

And he looks very, very confused.]


What the frak was that? I thought it was a dream, or maybe even one of those visions everyone keeps having. Some last flash before the end...

...But then, how could I possibly be back on Galactica? There's no way I'm a Cylon, too... if nothing else, I don't think they'd let me resurrect like this. [He taps his crutch against his leg, with a hollow metal sound.]

[The look Felix shoots the screen seems to indicate, though, that he knows what the missing words are.]

Right.
So what are you here for, then?

[Actually, that is a bit of a mystery, isn't it? Before becoming President, Gaius had definitely been a bit of a crazy ass, but nothing criminal, as far as he or anyone else in the fleet knew. What could have happened before the attack to land him here?]

Wait-- let me guess. It wasn't you; you were in the wrong place, at the wrong time. This is all a mistake.

Right.

[ Less dismissive, this time, more relieved that he doesn't have to spell this out. ] You'll find standards of justice here are a bit loosey goosey. The physics certainly are.

I suppose you, too, were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

[Imagine his surprise that Gaius did something he's not taking responsibility for. His voice takes on a snide, sing-song tone.]

Noooo... I did something wrong and got caught.
