Quotes
-
Lieutenant Starbuck : [aboard Cylon base ship] I like the way you haven't gone overboard on furniture.
[strikes a match on Cylon Centurion's chest plate]
Lieutenant Starbuck : Thanks.
[lights up cigar]
Lucifer : It will go better for you, Lieutenant, if you'd show a little respect.
Lieutenant Starbuck : You mean things could get worse?
Lucifer : Hmm.
-
Count Baltar : Lieutenant Starbuck. How nice of you to drop in.
Lieutenant Starbuck : Baltar! I'd trade my life for one shot at you.
-
Lieutenant Starbuck : [to Baltar] I just want you to know torture won't do you any good. I had a course in resisting.
[Cylon Centurions remove him from the throne room]
Lieutenant Starbuck : Hey, hey, hey, careful! I bruise easy!
-
Lieutenant Starbuck : Apollo, what do you plan on doing for living quarters after you're married?
Captain Apollo : Oh, I am so excited! I just found this place in the Astrodon freighter. With a little paint and some nice curtains, it's so cozy!
Lieutenant Starbuck : You always were good with color.
[after the female warriors continue talking in the background]
Captain Apollo : Mmm, you'll never believe what I found. I just found some Valcron in the Tip Barge.
Lieutenant Starbuck : REALLY? The soft, translucent kind?
Captain Apollo : [effeminately] Absolutely stunning!
-
Captain Apollo : We thought you were dead.
Lieutenant Starbuck : Yeah, well, what's a little base star to an old war jock like me?
Captain Apollo : [laughs, suddenly realizing] Base star?
-
Captain Apollo : [as Starbuck zooms off] Don't be crazy, Starbuck, if you get too far ahead of me, you're gonna lose your fix. Now slow up and give me a chance to catch up!
[then spots another pilot acting on own accord]
Captain Apollo : Serena, you get your tail back aboard the Galactica!
Serina : Now is that any way to talk to an officer? I'll have you up on charges. Or at the very least, locked out of my chambers.
Captain Apollo : Serena, you're a good pilot. My head believes that even if my stomach doesn't. But this void can swallow up good pilots, so go back.
Lieutenant Starbuck : Apollo!
Captain Apollo : Yo!
Lieutenant Starbuck : Whatever the Galactica picked up on her scanners, is beyond our range. I can't go any further without losing my fix on the Galactica.
Captain Apollo : Then go back.
Lieutenant Starbuck : I got a better idea. I'll keep my fix on you, you keep your fix on the home base. We can double our range.
Serina : I have a better idea. Apollo can lock on me, I'll fix on the Galactica, and we can triple our range.
Lieutenant Starbuck : Who was that?
Captain Apollo : Nobody. Just come back, Starbuck. If anybody's going on deep probe, it will be me. I'm in command.
Lieutenant Starbuck : Sorry. Consider it a wedding present.
[his Colonial Viper zooming away]

Lieutenant Starbuck : [as Cylon attackers swoop down, laser blazing down] Athena, where's Apollo and Serena?
Lieutenant Athena : They're up at the temple with Baltar!
Lieutenant Starbuck : We can't leave them up there, they're gonna blow that place to pieces!
Lieutenant Athena : Look, the only way I know how to get 'em down is to knock 'em out of the sky!
Lieutenant Starbuck : What, are you crazy? You girls barely know how to fly!
Lieutenant Athena : Look, you do what you wanna do! I'm going!
Lieutenant Starbuck : No! Wait! Wait! Get...
[Athena runs away, going for her Colonial Viper]
Lieutenant Starbuck : Lord help us!
-
Lieutenant Starbuck : All right, fly in pairs. Wingmen, stick to your leaders. Protect them!
[more to himself]
Lieutenant Starbuck : We may have a chance!
Lieutenant Deitra : [confidently] Starbuck, we'll ionize them!
-
Lieutenant Starbuck : They've seen us!
Lieutenant Athena : [as hordes of Cylon Raiders come streaming in] Eighty, ninety, hundred...
Lieutenant Starbuck : Athena, quit counting! You're not on the bridge.
[Cylons Raiders swoop down on Colonial fighters]
Lieutenant Starbuck : Let's go get 'em!
Lieutenant Deitra : [laser taps, explosion] Gemi got hit! Watch out! Brie, there's one on your tail!
Lieutenant Brie : [explosion, Cylons almost score hit] Breaking!
[evades narrowly, her Viper hurtling upwards, rocked by the blast]
Lieutenant Deitra : It's hopeless, Starbuck!
Lieutenant Starbuck : Deitra, roll! Roll!
Lieutenant Deitra : [they come on] We're trapped!
Lieutenant Starbuck : Well, let's go out fighting!
