[If anyone was wondering where Starbuck's been the past few days? She's been at the underground hospital, in a telepathy induced coma. Call it an involuntary time out. But now she's awake again and she's gotten hold of her comm device while the overworked staff were trying to deal with other patients. She speaks with a tense, frantic whisper.]

Listen to me. There's a Cylon model on the planet. I've seen two of them, but there may be more. They look exactly the same and go by the name of Charles Xavier. One of them did something to me. You've gotta believe me. You have to stop them. They're a threat, a threat to the safety of every-

No, no no! Give that back, I need to-

[There's a yell and a scuffle. Someone's getting punched in the face. Make that two. More commotion, the sound of trolleys, bedpans and other medical shit getting knocked over and tossed around.]

Get off me!! Get the frak off-!

[More sounds of a struggle and a call for someone to get the damned sedative already. The transmission cuts off. Kara's device has been confiscated so she won't be able to reply.]

We can't avoid them forever, Erik, and if she continues on like this, it could be more than just the two of them. I suggest we straighten it out before it gets out of hand.

Which is why she would have been the better target.

[If Charles would've let him sort this mess out his own way, that is. But it's a foregone conclusion that he's not running the show on this one, so as long as he isn't left behind, this is as close as he's getting to an agreement.]

Whenever you're ready.
