Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Two of Pegasus’ raptors go missing after a suspicious distress call. President Roslin must make a decision on abortion that could hurt her political career.
Our Take
A solid hour that gives Lee and Kara room to breathe as they step up aboard Pegasus, and the rescue plot has real tension even if the ending wraps up a bit cleanly. The abortion storyline feels like it exists mostly to set up future political trouble, but Mary McDonnell sells it anyway. Worth your time.
