Trivia
Commander Adama uses the phrase, "roll the hard six." This is a dice term. To roll a six you need a one and a five, a two and a four, or a pair of threes. The odds of rolling any kind of a six is one in eleven or about 9%. To roll a hard six - a pair of threes - drops the odds to only 3%.

Goofs
When Helo and Sharon are in the loft it is raining heavily, which would put a lot of moisture in the air, yet when they move over the hay right next to the exterior loft door it kicks up a huge amount of dust.

Quotes
Elosha: Three thousand six hundred years ago, Pythia wrote about the exile and the rebirth of the human race. And the Lords anointed a leader to guide the caravan of the heavens to their new homeland. And unto the leader they gave a vision of serpents, numbering two and ten as a sign of things to come.
President Laura Roslin: Pythia wrote that?
Elosha: She also wrote that the new leader suffered a wasting disease and would not live to enter the new land. But you're not dying.
[pause]
Elosha: Are you?

9/10

The first occurrence...

...I think, of the hugely important phrase "all of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again." If I was ever to get a quote tattoo, that might very well be it.

M p.s. Apparently I need to add more lines.

I give it 9/10, for the reason stated above.

p.p.s. Nope, still not enough.

Tricia Helfer is quite stunning as always.

p.p.p.s. Almost now, I hope.

I would even go so far as to call Her wife material.

p.p.p.p.s. Hmmmmm.
