Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Chief Tyrol was giving a Viper a thorough examination when he discovered a leak. What did he decide was to be the fate of the Viper?

Answer: It was no longer serviceable and was to be used as scrap.

His relationship to the Viper was carefully compared to his former relationship with Boomer. He caressed both the Viper and the lieutenant smoothly. In the end, the metaphor showed that Tyrol kept losing the things he loved.

Answer: Helo

Confused and upset, Tyrol confronted Helo over his relationship with Sharon. As Helo was to have a baby with Sharon, Tyrol pointed out that their child would not have been considered normal. They got into a fistfight with each other, stopping just short of the chief hitting Helo with a wrench.

Answer: Anastasia Dualla

Looking at her screen, Dee was confused by a glitch that had suddenly appeared. Somehow her boards were overloaded and she was shocked. She fell backward from her seat and hit her head on the floor.

4. While on the deck, Lee told Tyrol that he wasn't expecting any miracles from him when it came to getting the Vipers working properly. What was Tyrol's response?

Answer: "Maybe that's the problem."

From his conversation with Lee spawned Tyrol's idea to build a new fighter. When his deck crew found out about his new project, they shunned the idea. Tyrol told them that he wouldn't need them to finish anyway. Eventually, many of the members of Galactica helped out any way they could.

5. While in the shooting range, Kara, Lee, and Hot Dog encountered what problem created by the computer virus?

Answer: The oxygen to the room was shut off.

The virus had discovered how to turn off the oxygen to the room as well as block the door off. Trapped inside, Starbuck and Apollo had to shoot through the door's window to get some air to breathe.

6. Colonel Tigh, after all his bickering about how the fighter Tyrol was constructing was a waste of time, helped him out by offering him some spare engines.

Answer: True

Tigh refused to look like he was helping the chief by stating that a ship's captain wanted "help" by having a team get rid of the engines that were taking up room. In return, Tigh filched himself a jar of the alcohol Tyrol was making in order to trade for parts.

Answer: Wipe the computer drives and restore them with backups.

The process of wiping drives was dangerous because it left Galactica completely vulnerable. All their systems would be offline once the Cylons arrived. It was necessary, though, or else the virus would eventually have complete control of their systems and they could be destroyed from within.

8. What was Sharon's role in the Cylon attack?

Answer: She sent the Cylon computer virus back to the Cylons.

Sharon helped the Colonials by sending a virus of her own back at the Cylons who were going to attack their ship. The Cylon fighters lost control and rammed into each other, and the Viper pilots had an easy task of dispatching all the fighters that had come to destroy them.

9. With Tyrol's fighter nearly complete, the deck crew needed to find something they could use to "skin" the ship, as Starbuck put it. What did they use?

Answer: Carbon composite

Helo offered the suggestion, and it allowed the ship to be nearly invisible to the DRADIS. Starbuck offered to fly the ship and was thrilled that she was invisible to everyone.

10. In honor of President Laura Roslin, what was the name given to the "Blackbird"?

Answer: Laura

At the ship christening, Roslin gave a speech about the resilience of the people of the fleet and how they would overcome their difficulties through such acts of faith. The ship's name was then revealed to her: Laura. She was genuinely pleased, and then pretended to break the champagne bottle on the fighter.
