Pegasus

Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Gallactica meets Pegasus, and Adama’s command is threatened when the captain of Pegasus outranks him. A joyous celebration turns sour at some of the secrets emerging out of the differences of the two crews, and Baltar meets a familiar Cylon prisoner aboard Pegasus.

Our Take

This is the episode where the show’s world suddenly feels bigger and a lot meaner. The collision between the two crews builds real tension, and the final standoff lands hard enough to justify the buildup. A few of the Pegasus officer scenes run a bit stiff, but the ending alone makes this one an easy recommendation.
