Baltar stands in some ruins, looking up and around.

Anders looks around.

Dee kneels in the surf and finds something among the rocks.

Lee stands with his back to some ruins with a look of disgust on his face.

Roslin bends down and picks the closest thing to a flower to be found on the planet. Helo can be heard calling Admiral Adama. As she stands up, we see Helo sitting on the wing of a Raptor right behind her. Roslin remains in the foreground as Adama walks up to the Raptor. Helo reports that the other scouts report the same conditions around the planet with no responses to hails or signs of human life. D'Anna walks up as Helo makes his report and she adds that her scouts reported the same.

Kara tries to track the signal and tells Leoben that it's weak. She and Leoben walk into the forest, following the signal.

Baltar reports that there is low level radiation in the water and soil. He wants the word passed not to eat or drink anything. Tory overhears

Helo reports to D'Anna, Roslin and Adama that Baltar confirmed that the planet was nuked two thousand years ago. Adama says that it's time to go.

Dee finds a set of jacks in the sand and starts to cry.

On the Raptor on the way back to the ship, Dee tells herself not to give up. Helo notices, puts his hand on her arm and tries to calm her. She grows quiet. Adama, Roslin and Lee are the passengers.

Roslin, Adama and Lee disembark the Raptor on the flight deck.

A number of Galactica 's crew stands on the flight deck waiting expectedly in silence.

Roslin looks at them for a long moment and then tells Adama to get her out of there. Marines escort her across the flight deck with Adama and Lee at her side. The flight crew shouts questions filling the flight deck with overwhelming din of noise. As they make their way across the flight deck, Lee finally calls out that the President will issue a statement in due time.
