In sickbay Kara quotes to Roslin, "Thus shall it come to pass. The dying leader shall know the truth of the Opera House." Roslin wants to know where Kara heard it. Kara tells her that it came from the hybrid on the rebel Cylons' baseship. Roslin says that she has to find out about her visions.
Roslin walks into the hybrid's room on the baseship.
The hybrid lies dormant in its tub.
Roslin orders, "Plug it in. It's time to get some answers."
An Eight nods and begins to plug it in.
Athena asks Hera what she's drawing.
Athena finds Hera's drawing book is full of pictures of Sixes.
Athena finds Hera is gone.
Hera is in the corridor as Natalie is escorted through the ship. Hera walks up to Natalie, who kneels down in front of her.
Athena pulls out her gun and orders Natalie away from Hera.
Athena walks up to a now standing Natalie and tells her that she's never going to take Hera. She then shoots Natalie.
Athena then shoots Natalie one more time after she's hit the floor.
