Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Commander Adama

Under the guise of the showing the people that they can "trust the people at the top", Laura Roslin suggested that Commander Adama be the first one to be tested by the Cylon detector. It would clear any further doubts in her mind that Adama was a Cylon, a thought planted in her head by the devious Leoben Conoy. Adama responded by saying, "Well then maybe you should go first."

2. In the observation deck, Billy Keikaya and Anastasia Dualla were on a date. But for Billy there was another motive than some time with Dee. What else was he there for?

Answer: To pump Dualla for information about Commander Adama

The two shared a romantic moment enhanced by the show-off fly-by the Viper pilots pulled because they knew she was in there. Unfortunately for Billy, Roslin wanted him to gather information on Adama. He gathered that Adama was making off-log calls and acting stranger than usual. Was Adama a Cylon? they pondered.

3. "Is suicide a sin?" asked Gaius Baltar, hovering over a table of blood samples. Why was he so disheartened about the Cylon-detecting process?

Answer: It would take over sixty years to test all of the fleet.

Sharing a moment with the lovely Six in his head, the two calculated the time it would take to test the whole fleet: 60.5 years, or an even sixty-one if he were to add in some time for sleep. He escaped from the hefty workload and opted to pay a little more attention to Six until Starbuck interrupted him in his lab.

Answer: Attempting to jump away, but only going a limited distance.

The Raider, hit by Apollo's shot, jumped erratically, but never got very far from the fleet. After each encounter, the Vipers would close in and barely miss as the Raider would jump again. Tigh made the decision that they would gain intelligence on the fighter by engaging all their sensors on it.

5. Commander Adama returned on the Raptor with Saul Tigh's wife.

Answer: True

After Colonel Tigh had given him landing clearance, Adama came aboard the Galactica with his Raptor. When Tigh went to greet him, he got a wonderful surprise; his wife Ellen was alive and they were once again together.

Answer: Some woman named Ellen

Roslin was gravely upset that Adama had cancelled his own test and told the doctor to resume it. Baltar, already strained from the work overload, was not happy that he would have to start the test over... again. Later, Roslin had him cancel that test and start Ellen's test once more.

7. When Tigh returned from talking with the president, his wife had something waiting for him, an old friend one might say. What is the name of the green drink that he and Ellen shared?

Answer: ambrosia

Tigh's vice of drinking was well known throughout the fleet, and when Adama brought up that fact, Tigh was upset and said that it was only in celebration. The Ambrosia made fools of the two at the dinner party and created only more relationship problems between them.

8. Bringing out the worst in Tigh was something Ellen was very good at doing. What habit in her past made him fall so low?

Answer: She cheated on him with many men.

The 'scuttlebutt', as Adama so bluntly put it, was that Ellen cheated on Tigh with several others, including men that he knew. Even at the dinner party, she attempted to flirt with Lee Adama, and afterward, she flirted with Baltar. Saul was upset at her actions and told her that he was watching her.

Answer: "Besides, I wanted her close to me."

Ellen had decided to play Colonel Tigh and tell him that Bill had touched her leg during dinner. Seemingly a familiar pattern with her, Saul ignored the accusation. When she convinced him to come with to show him proof, the two walked in the door in the middle of a conversation about Ellen being a Cylon (which they were unaware was happening) and interpreted his words to mean that he wanted her. Adama wanted her close so that he could keep an eye on her if she happened to be a Cylon.

Answer: "I'll never tell."

"It's so much simpler that way. No muss, no fuss," Baltar said about the Cylon detector and how everyone passes. The Six was curious as to the real results, but Baltar left us in suspense when he said he'd never tell.
