Lieutenant Starbuck : [his beautiful nurse is also a teacher] Well, I always wanted to meet a woman as long on brains as she was on beauty.
Miri : [smiles] You think I'm pretty?
Ariadne : [playfully annoyed by sister's vanity] Oh, Miri!
Miri : Eat!
[the children scamper back to theIr place in the hearth]
Lieutenant Starbuck : Miri, when you get back to the Galactica, you'll have every Viper pilot in the place battling it out over you. You'll drive 'em crazy!
Miri : Back to the Galactica?
Lieutenant Starbuck : Yes. Yes, you can't stay here when the rescue team from the fleet comes to pick me up. You'll come with us.
Ariadne : All of us?
Lieutenant Starbuck : Ah, of course all of you.
Kyle : [interrupting] We have a mission!
-
Miri : Perhaps they won't...
Lieutenant Starbuck : Kill me? Miri, you saw what the Cylons did to the people here.
Miri : They haven't executed father...
Lieutenant Starbuck : Cause you've been a laser in their side.
-
Lieutenant Starbuck : [she brings him food] Oh, that smells good. I didn't realize I was so hungry.
[looks up at her]
Lieutenant Starbuck : You're also their teacher?
Miri : It's very important to keep their education going.
Lieutenant Starbuck : I always wanted to meet a woman as long on brains as she was on beauty.
Miri : [smiles graciously] You think I'm pretty?
Ariadne : Oh, Miri...
Miri : [shouting over her shoulder at the children] Eat!
Lieutenant Starbuck : Miri, when you get back to the Galactica, you'll have every Viper pilot in the place battling it out over you. You'll drive them crazy.
Miri : [doesn't understand] Back to the Galactica?
Lieutenant Starbuck : Yes. You can't stay here. When the rescue team from the fleet comes to pick me up, you'll come with us.

Miri : [tending him] Please... please, try... try not to move. You have been hurt.
Lieutenant Starbuck : [remembering through the pain] There were others...
Miri : My brothers and sister.
Lieutenant Starbuck : And the Cylons.
Miri : Don't worry. We can handle them. Kyle is very, very smart.
Lieutenant Starbuck : Kyle?
Miri : My brother. He's our leader.
Lieutenant Starbuck : Leader? But he's only a boy, and the others were just... children.
Kyle : [entering] We are not children. We are warriors. Miri, prepare some food. The others will soon return from patrol.
Lieutenant Starbuck : Patrol? Those boys and that little girl... out there with Cylons crawling around? You realize what can happen?
-
Miri : [guiltily, as she tends the hostage] You need not worry about an infection. It looks much better.
Lieutenant Starbuck : [sighs] Terrific. I can walk to my execution.
Miri : Oh, please don't, Starbuck. Perhaps they won't...
Lieutenant Starbuck : Kill me? Miri, you saw what the Cylons did to the people here.
Miri : [struggling with emotions] They haven't executed father.
Lieutenant Starbuck : 'Cause you have been a laser in their side. They're probably trying to find your location through him. Or wait for just what happened - a trade.
Miri : We will continue to attack them. Perhaps we can get you back too.
Lieutenant Starbuck : How? Trade another human for me? Huh? No thanks, Miri. I couldn't live with that.
-
Miri : [reaching up to kiss him, a peck on the cheek] I... I think what you're doing is wonderful. And I just wanted to thank you.
Lieutenant Starbuck : Well, we don't have your father yet, but, uh... you're welcome.
[returns the kiss, a peck on the cheek]
