Battlestar Galactica Miniseries
Boomer: No fair.
Boomer: Too early for that kind of money.
Boomer: What girl don't you know?
Boomer:
Yeah, I'm gonna catch hell from the XO. But it wasn't entirely my fault,
Chief. Primary gimble's acting up again.
Boomer:
Helo, am I lying?
Boomer:
You're not the one out there trying to bring in fifty tons of Raptor onto a
moving hangar deck with a bad gimble.
Boomer: The
gimble *is* broken.
Boomer: CAG,
Boomer. We've got a lot more contacts showing up. Looks like a couple of
squadrons at least.
Boomer:
Stay with me. Okay, we have a fuel leak. We have to put it down and repair
it. Nearest world is Caprica.
Boomer:
Best way to avoid attracting attention. No power signature, go in a straight
line. Unless somebody actually gets close enough to see us, we just look
like a chunk of debris on the sensors. I think we have enough inertia to
make it to Caprica's ionosphere. Then we power up, find a place to land.
Boomer: No
one chooses. No one. Lottery. Everyone gets a number. Put the numbers in a
box, take out three. That's it, no arguing, no appeal.
Boomer:
There's a lot of interference around here. Lotta noise. Keeps my wireless
from working. Hopefully, once that communications pod I launched gets far
enough away from here, a Colonial ship will pick up the signal and start
looking for us.
Boomer: You
know something? Both my parents died when I was little too.
Boomer: The
Viper Mark Sevens? The Cylons shut them down like they threw a switch or
something. And I've been hearing reports like that from all over. The only
fighters that are having any success at all are either old or in need of
some major overhaul.
Boomer:
Don't worry. We'll find them.
