Battlestar Galactica - television miniseries - 12/08/2003, 12/09/2003
(from internet transcript)
CAG (interstellar warship Battlestar Galactica, Commander, Air Group (presumably)) : Okay, Boomer, we'll take it from here. You back way off.
Boomer: Roger that.
CAG: All right boys and girls, you break into attack formation. Now, there might only be two of them, but I want you to stick with your wingman, and do not get overconfident.
Random pilot 1: Anybody know what these things look like?
Random pilot 2: Pictures I've seen of the old Cylon fighters, it's gonna look like a big flying wing.
Random pilot 1: Those pictures are 40 years old.
CAG: Okay, keep the chatter down.
Boomer: CAG, Boomer. We've got a lot more contacts showing up. Looks like a couple of squadrons at least.
CAG: All Vipers, weapons free. Let's go get 'em.
(The ships approach each other. The power goes out in the CAG's Viper.)
CAG: What the- (the power goes out in all of the other ships as well) I've lost power. Joely, Joely take over. Joely, can you read me? (his ship bumps into another, also clearly drifting)
Helo: What are they doing?
Boomer: I don't know, they're going straight in.
Helo: Comm chatter's gone, they're not talking anymore.
Boomer: CAG, Boomer. CAG, Boomer, do you read?
CAG: Boomer, this is CAG. If you can hear me, they must have done something to our computer systems, some sort of electronic jamming. I've never seen anything like this. (gets a closer look at the Cylon ships) There's no cockpits. Nobody's flying these things. (Cylons fire) Oh my god.
(The ships all explode)
Helo: No! (everything goes off their radar except for the Cylons) Boomer, get us out of here.
Boomer: Right. (The Raptor takes off; the Cylons follow)
