The first car shown in the film with the title Pursuit Special is a Holden Monaro stolen and driven by the escaped criminal, the Night Rider. The more famous Pursuit Special is a modified 1973 Ford Falcon XB GT. Within this storyline, Max Rockatansky (Mel Gibson) is offered the black Pursuit Special as an incentive to stay on the force as their top pursuit man after he reveals his desire to quit. Although Max turns the offer down, he later uses the black car to exact his revenge on an outlaw motorcycle gang who killed his wife and child.

William Adama: Good morning.

Gaeta: Morning, sir. Com traffic from the midwatch.

William Adama: Hmm. Anything interesting?

Gaeta: Mostly housekeeping. Uh, there was one odd message we were copied on. The one from Fleet Headquarters there, sir. Courier officer's overdue coming back from Armistice Station. They've asked for a full status report on all F.T.L.-capable ships just in case they need somebody to jump out there today - see if his ship has any mechanical problems.

William Adama: I think we're a little bit busy today. Wouldn't you say so, Lieutenant?

Gaeta: Yes, sir.

William Adama: I'm glad we agree.

Episode #1.1 (#1.1)


Edward James Olmos ... Commander Adama

Jamie Bamber ... Lee 'Apollo' Adama


In a distant galaxy lie The Twelve Colonies of Man, a civilization that has been at peace for some forty years with an empire of machines, the Cylons, who were created generations before as worker drones for mankind, but became independent, rose in rebellion, and launched war on their masters. Now, the Cylons have evolved into more human form, into machine-created biological beings, who seek to exterminate true biological humans. To this end they use a human scientist, Gaius, to help one of their infiltrators, known as #6, penetrate the Colonies' master defense mainframes; Gaius is reluctant but smitten by #6, a Cylon woman of seemingly insatiable sexual desire, and the result of their affair is a nuclear sneak-attack that obliterates the Colonies and the star navy deployed for their protection. One ship, however, survives, an obsolete battlestar known as the Galactica; scheduled for decommisioning

Tigh: I'm telling you, Bill. They put the music in the ship. I can hear it.

Adama, standing: I believe you. I'll look into it.

Tigh: You'll look into it? You'll look into it? I am here telling you there is Cylon sabotage aboard our ship!

Adama: Sabotage. With music.

Tigh: I know, I know. I can't quite understand it myself, but... There's too much confusion.

Arson

Arson is the crime of maliciously, voluntarily, and willfully setting fire to the building, buildings, or other property of another


Some arson is committed in an effort to conceal or disguise other crimes. Some may be committed by 'enforcers' of protection rackets as consequences of failing to pay extortionists.

Revenge drives some arsonists. Victims’ property is often damaged or destroyed, compromising physical safety and sometimes causing personal injury. Domestic violence sometimes results in arson. Firefighters are occasionally found to have committed arson, with motives including revenge
