Battlestar Galactica- Season 2 Trivia

1. Without any warning, the Cylons stop shelling the rescue force and resistance. Eighteen hours later, Starbuck sends a recon unit to confirm the Centurions have left the area. Who pronounces this as a miracle?

From Quiz 2.20 "Lay Down Your Burdens, Pt. 2"

Answer: Another copy of Brother Cavil

At the end of 'Downloaded,' we know that Caprica Six and Boomer are going to try and change the Cylons' plan against humanity. This finally hits a head at the beginning of the episode, when the Centurions are clearly given orders to stop shelling the humans, and then to eventually leave. Brother Cavil (who we learn much later has been with the resistance group since the beginning) thanks the gods and proclaims it a miracle, and then starts a prayer.

From Quiz 2.18 "Downloaded"

Answer: A version of Baltar like Baltar sees of her

Caprica Six is coached through the resurrection process by Three, and soon sees Baltar standing next to her in a suit similar to the one he wore in the miniseries. He makes sure she doesn't reveal she sees him, and also helps her temporarily fool the Cylons into believing she doesn't actually care whether or not Baltar is alive or dead, just that it would be "unfortunate."

From Quiz 2.17 "The Captain's Hand"

Answer: Pegasus is the Beast; Galactica is the Bucket

A month after the events of 'Sacrifice,' Apollo and Dee's relationship has become intimate, and Dee asks if he is ready to go into the "belly of the Beast," Pegasus' new nickname, along with Galactica's "Bucket" designation. This is followed by Dee finding out Apollo has been promoted thanks to the new pips on his uniform, something that Apollo had not previously mentioned to her because he did not consider it to be a big deal.

From Quiz 2.16 "Sacrifice"

Answer: How to deal with the fleet finding out about the new Sharon Valerii

Adama defends his position of keeping Sharon a secret and aboard Galactica, stating that she is a vital military asset. When Billy raises the point that she may be colluding with other Cylons, Adama responds "If I felt for one second that she posed some kind of a threat to this fleet, I'd pull the trigger on her myself." Billy impresses Roslin by suggesting that the fleet needed to hear Adama say that himself, as well as believe it to be true.

From Quiz 2.14 "Black Market"

Answer: Garroted

In the opening scene of the episode, Apollo had a gun trained on an unknown man. It skipped back to 48 hours before that happened, and Commander Fisk met his demise on the orders of the very same man. It was clear that Fisk knew him as he did not seem surprised he was in his quarters and Fisk had sent Baltar cigars at some point in the past.

From Quiz 2.13 "Epiphanies"

Answer: Dr. Baltar with Number Six

President Roslin was being wheeled to the infirmary on Galactica while having flashbacks to Caprica. As Secretary of Education, she was meeting with the Education Alliance representative at the time she saw Dr. Baltar with Number Six, although she did not realize it at the time.

From Quiz 2.12 "Resurrection Ship, Pt. 2"

Answer: Floating in water

We heard Apollo breathing somewhat loudly, floating in what appears to be a lake. He was then interrupted by the sound of a Cylon Raider. The scene was broken up when a Viper flew by shooting at a Raider, and Apollo was seen floating in space with a groggy look on his face. The episode then changed to 48 hours before the scene.

From Quiz 2.11 "Resurrection Ship, Pt. 1"

Answer: Stinger relieved Apollo and began to aid Pegasus

The situation played out just as ordered, with Apollo relinquishing his weapon without a fight. Stinger then let Apollo go aft, where he sent a message out for Starbuck asking "Starbuck are you out there - Apollo."

From Quiz "Battlestar Galactica" 2.10 - "Pegasus"

Answer: Gaeta announced he was getting Colonial transponders.

Adama was ready to jump the fleet; however, after Gaeta reported that he was receiving Colonial transponders, Adama wasn't so sure it was the Cylons. Tigh thought that maybe the Cylons were trying to use Colonial signals to trick them, but that wasn't the case.

From Quiz "Battlestar Galactica" 2.09 - "Flight of the..."

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.

From Quiz "Battlestar Galactica" 2.08 - "Final Cut"

Answer: The Gideon Massacre

The footage showed a young boy crying out to his father who had been shot during the massacre. D'Anna knew that it would instantly attract the sympathy of the people of the fleet.

From Quiz "Battlestar Galactica" 2.07 - "Home, Pt. II"

Answer: "Maybe she's seen it in a vision."

"I'm serious," Adama said. He knew that she sometimes saw things in her visions that were prescient. Everyone had chuckled at the comment, but he wasn't kidding around. He didn't yet know about the other Sharon model.

From Quiz "Battlestar Galactica" 2.04 - "Resistance"

Answer: "That's what your girlfriend said."

Tigh was implying that Tyrol's relationship with Boomer was suspect and that he was perhaps even a Cylon. Tyrol was unaware that Boomer was a Cylon, but Tigh didn't believe that he could be romantically involved with a Cylon and not know it.

From Quiz "Battlestar Galactica" 2.03 - "Fragged"

Answer: Missile battery

The centurions were building a missile battery to barrage the Colonials who were on the planet. It also served as a SAM site where they could fire on any attempted rescue parties.

From Quiz "Battlestar Galactica" 2.02 - "Valley of..."

Answer: They were onboard a Cylon ship that crashed into the Galactica.

At the end of the previous episode, Lee attempted to shoot down a Cylon prototype they hadn't seen before. The ship carried loads of Cylon centurions and when it plunged within Galactica, the centurions began to wreak havoc.

From Quiz "So Say We All"

Answer: In Galactica's brig

Roslin had been deposed from office and imprisoned by Commander Adama prior to his shooting by Boomer at the end of Season One. Roslin is soon joined by Apollo who is placed in the adjacent cell for mutiny during the expedition to arrest Roslin aboard Colonial One.

From Quiz 2.20 "Lay Down Your Burdens, Pt. 2"

Answer: They will table the issue of resettlement until after the election

As of this point, we don't know who has the lead in the polls, only that Roslin has dropped two more points in the latest poll. When she meets with Baltar on board Galactica, she tries to appeal to his "sense of patriotism," but Baltar responds that it is his patriotic duty to lead the people to a new world. When Baltar begins to walk away, she confronts him about being with Caprica Six on Caprica before the attacks, at which point he evades the question and leaves.

From Quiz 2.19 "Lay Down Your Burdens, Pt. 1"

Answer: Tyrol beats her in a fit of rage

Tyrol is shown as convulsing on the floor at the very beginning of the episode, and Cally begins searching for him shortly thereafter. Between shots of the mission briefing and the first presidential debate, Cally finds him, but upon waking him up he begins repeatedly hitting her in the face until he eventually stops himself. He then takes her to the infirmary once he sees what he has done.

From Quiz 2.18 "Downloaded"

Answer: She screams, not wanting to accept it

Boomer struggles through the resurrection process, and right away is greeted by a Three (likely the same one that helped Six in the first resurrection scene), a Six, a Five (Aaron Doral), and another Eight. Upon seeing the Eight, Boomer cannot contain her emotions, and loudly screams "No!" as the camera zooms out to show the isolated resurrection pod.

From Quiz 2.15 "Scar"

Answer: When the odds are on his side

This explanation of Scar's fighting style shows that something has changed. Normally, Raiders are simple fighters that will go toe-to-toe with the fleet, but since Starbuck found that Raiders are biological, we have to wonder if resurrection technology is used for them as well. Following the destruction of the Resurrection Ship, Scar is beginning to use survival techniques unseen prior to this point.

From Quiz 2.14 "Black Market"

Answer: A cubit (money)

In a sign of resilience, the criminals that killed Commander Fisk put a cubit down his throat after he was killed. After he saw this, Admiral Adama told Cottle, "If you find anything else, let me know right away," to which Cottle replied, "If I find anything else, I may retire early."

From Quiz 2.13 "Epiphanies"

Answer: The ammunition had been sabotaged

Cally showed Chief Tyrol a bullet and he noticed that the weight was off. He proceeded to break it apart with his bare hands. Cally mentioned that she found three more just like it. The Chief then said "One bad round's a fluke; more than one - sabotage."

From Quiz 2.12 "Resurrection Ship, Pt. 2"

Answer: Colonel Fisk

Specialists Vireem and Gage entered the brig behind armed marines, and began to tie up Tyrol and Helo. They pounded the Galactica officers with bars of soap until Colonel Fisk arrived to stop the attack. He berated his own men for assaulting officers in a time of war and mentioned that the penalty is very severe, and then let them leave. Tyrol and Helo thanked him for the act, but he responded that he didn't want their thanks.

From Quiz "Battlestar Galactica" 2.10 - "Pegasus"

Answer: The Pegasus was tracking a Cylon fleet when they came across the Galactica.

Cain also said that the Cylons were scouting out resource-rich areas, which was unfortunate, but also led to Galactica's discovery.

From Quiz "Battlestar Galactica" 2.08 - "Final Cut"

Answer: An excerpt of a poem

The words from the poem read, "From the darkness you must fall." It was a small excerpt from a poem written by a Caprican poet. Apollo claimed that Starbuck was on the top of the threat list, but since she likely didn't know Caprican poetry, she wouldn't be a suspect. Starbuck recited the rest of the line, disproving him.

From Quiz "Battlestar Galactica" 2.07 - "Home, Pt. II"

Answer: Get his brain scanned

Gaius didn't want to believe that he was crazy and that he was seeing things in his head. He had to believe that he was chosen for a higher purpose, so he followed her advice.

From Quiz "Battlestar Galactica" 2.04 - "Resistance"

Answer: a harsh gunfight

The resistance fighters on Caprica had known that Cylons look like humans for some time and had been periodically attacking them. When they discovered Starbuck and Helo, they thought the two were human versions of the Cylons and open fired. Helo and Starbuck returned fire, and eventually the two groups reconciled, though reluctantly.

From Quiz "So Say We All"

Answer: Saul Tigh

As Commander Adama's Executive Officer, command of the Galactica falls onto Colonel Tigh's shoulders. However, despite his wife's urgings, he quickly proves himself to be unsuited for command and out of his depth politically.
