Previously (Recap):
Cain promotes Starbuck to Captain and makes her Pegasus CAG.
Roslin lectures Adama and Cain about setting examples as leaders. Cain says two officers committed murder, while protecting a Cylon. Tyrol can be seen throwing Thorne aside and Thorne's temple hitting the bolt. Cain says that they admitted their guilt and she had the authority to try, convict and sentence them to death.
Roslin says Adama has to kill Cain.
Cain demeans, then kicks and lastly spits on Gina.
Baltar gives Gina some clothes.
Inner Six tells Baltar how she misses sports and how she used to get two tickets to the pyramid game so that she could "feel" that Baltar was with her there.
Baltar explains that the ship is called a Resurrection Ship by the Cylon. It was built because the fleet is too far away from the Cylon homeworld. The ship has the entire "apparatus" for Cylon resurrection. Cain and Starbuck realize that if they destroyed the ship, then any Cylons killed would really be "dead."
Lee and Starbuck explain their plan for attacking the Cylon fleet. The Blackbird will take out the Resurrection ship's FTL drive and then all fighter squadrons will go after the disabled ship.
Inter-cut, Adama tells Kara he wants her to shot Cain in the head, while Cain tells Colonel Fisk to take some Marines in order to be able to "terminate Adama's command."
