Please, please, please... don't show us what they did to Gina.

Yes, Cain truly is all about vengeance now.

Mission to destroy the hybrid base.
Incident aboard Scylla.
I am Cain's legacy. I am alive because of the choices she made. And so is the rest of the crew. But is that really true? Maybe it doesn't matter to those who believe; the belief is what keeps them alive. And of course, a lot of other people are dead because of the choices she made. And everyone else made choices to go along with rather than confront Cain's tyranny.
Time for more drugs? Listening to the radio.
On whether the Pegasus was an answer to a prayer.
Raid was insignificant.
Manipulates/mimics human emotion. But doesn't actually feel. But at a a certain level, doesn't the distinction disappear?
Interrogation. Pain, yes, of course. Degradation. Fear. Shame. Really test its limits. Eek.
Giving the access codes to Gina was done in friendship. Baltar giving them. to Six was done out of lust and love.
A civilian fleet. Conscription and salvage. Military needs take priority.
Families on board.

Please, please, please... don't show us what they did to Gina. Too much to ask, I guess.

Cain made the conscious decision to operate the ship as a weapon of vengeance. So different to what Adama and Laura Roslin decided to do. Instead of fighting, they looked for survivors and ran. What made the difference? The fact that there were civilians and a civilization to consider? Although, I don't know as if a civilian presence would've made much difference to Cain. I think Cain had an edge to her that was buried up until this point. The part when she shoots her XO in the head is very revealing. Up until that point, her plans and such are harsh, but logical, based on the information available to the crew. But shooting her XO, who is supposed to question her when he feels appropriate, well, that's the moment when she stops leading a crew and starts running a police state. Yes, she becomes a human weapon - a razor. Kind of like how the Cylons are weapons - not human, but human-like.

Kendra and Kara bonding. You keep my secret and I'll keep yours.
Ah, this is right when Roslin got her miracle cure.
Cain's rationalization. Leave people behind to go on, to continue to fight, to show the enemy our will.
When you can be this for as long as you have to be, then you're a razor. This war is forcing us all to become razor, in order to survive. Cause otherwise we don't have the luxury to become human again.
Kendra is promoted to Captain.
Roslin's announcement banning abortion.

And if anyone on this show was going to quote The A-Team, it was gonna be Kara.

Dammit. I think Kendra's going to end up staying behind to detonate the nuke.

Dammit. I think Kendra's going to end up staying behind to detonate the nuke. You are right. And a bit of foreshadowing with her parting words to Kara - about how she knew damn well why she's doing it.

The secret base. Human(?) research subjects.
Lost communication. Plans to nuke the ship. Like with the Olympic Carrier.
Some one has to be sacrificed to set off the nuke.
Kendra sacrifices herself. Dammit. I wanted to see more of her. She can't manage to live and become human again. hence the drugs.
Oh, it's the Hybrid who said the "All this has happened before..."
Kendra and the Hybrid
Her whole life is leading up to this.
Do you wish to be forgiven?
Kara Thrace will lead the human race to it's end. She is the herald of the gods, the harbringer of death. They must not follow her.
Hmm. Is he telling the truth here ?
Kendra tries to send her warning, but is cut off.
Thar she blows.
