Lieutenant Sheba : Where in heaven's name are we?
Captain Apollo : [climbing into the chair] As high as you can get on the Galactica. We're directly over the main thrusters.
[he starts pushing comm buttons]
Captain Apollo : It's a great spot to get away from everyone to think.
Lieutenant Starbuck : A cozy little place like this could be used for more than just thinking.
Cassiopeia : [giggles] Starbuck!

Captain Apollo : [Apollo, Starbuck and Sheba are exploring the planets of an unknown solar system] The first planet's a giant. 80% compressed hydrogen, 12% helium, no lifeforms. But it sure is pretty.
Lieutenant Sheba : So's number two. Beautiful but deadly. The atmosphere is almost totally comprised of compressed carbon dioxide. No lifeforms.
Lieutenant Starbuck : Well, leave it to me to get the ugly one. No atmosphere, just barren rock. No life could possibly...
[computer bleeps]
Lieutenant Starbuck : Wait!
Captain Apollo : What is it?
Lieutenant Starbuck : I'm picking up something. Just rising on the back side of the planet. Oh, no. No!
Captain Apollo : Starbuck?
Lieutenant Starbuck : Get out of here! It's a Cylon basestar!

Commander Adama : [Cylon base star looming] I thought we'd lost them for good.
Lieutenant Sheba : We all did, Commander.

Lieutenant Sheba : Ever since you've lost Serina, you've taken every high-risk mission on the board.
Captain Apollo : Serina has nothing to do with it.
Lieutenant Sheba : She was a very lovely woman, Apollo... but she's dead.
Captain Apollo : Can we just drop this?
Lieutenant Sheba : No, we can't just drop it. What do you think? You have the corner on loneliness here?
Captain Apollo : I'm... I'm sorry.
Lieutenant Sheba : [tearfully] It's all right. I guess we have kind of been at each other's throats ever since the moment we met.
Captain Apollo : Yeah, I guess we have.
Lieutenant Sheba : Except for lately. You've kind of included me in your... tight little circle of friends... and I appreciate that, Apollo.
Captain Apollo : [looking down] Yeah, well, uhm... I realized I'd been a little hard on you.
Lieutenant Sheba : Did you ever think about the fact that... maybe two people who snap at each other for no reason, are doing it to avoid their real feelings?
[her hand guides his face towards her]
Lieutenant Sheba : I've thought about it quite a bit.
[she kisses him]
Lieutenant Sheba : Be careful.
