Allright well here it is.

Episode #1 Season 2: "Scattered"

Spoiler:
The Episode starts out as a flashback and has a scene where Adama and Tigh meet. Tigh gets in a barfight and Adama kicks some ass and has his back. There is some background given about them and what they were doing in their early days of their career.

Flash to Glactica and basiclly they go to great lenghts to describe to utter pandamonium that is going on in the CIC. Lee is freaking out since he is still restrained but his father his shot, they are trying to get paramedics in there and Sharon in sobbing, confused and sad. The doctor is not aboard the ship and all they have are the paramedics. There is some beatdown of Sharon which adds more noise when at that moment the alarms start going off that a Cylon Raider has dropped out of FTL or whatever.

After a moment of decision, Tigh gives the order for an FTL jump to their emergency coordinates.

Lee and the president are in the brig and there are some conversations there. Lee is mad he is in there with his father dieing. Meanwhile the Marines give Sharon a good beatdown and lock her in a small bin.

Turns out that after completing the jump, they are the only ones there, no other ships from the fleet are there. In the confusion, Gaeta didn't transmit the newest coordinates to the fleet.

On Kobol, now Baltar's dreams have Adama in them with Six. Baltar has a baby that he is carrying around and Adama tries to kill it. Six does her usual crypitic talk about the future and god and the beautiful baby. There is a bunch of stuff that happens on Kobol. The long and short of it is that the preverbial guy in the red shirt ala star trek gets it and the LT shows he is a dumbass who really has no idea what he is doing.

Back on the ship - Tigh tells the President to pound salt when she wants him to go to the brig and talk to her. Turns out that the coordinates of the jump have a constant plus are constantly varied by a random factor unique to whatever their position is called Inertial Drift. So they can't just jump to the previously transmitted coordinates. They have no idea where the fleet would have gone.

The only way to figure out where the fleet went is to jump back to where they were, recalculate the coordinates and then jump to their location. To do the calculation becuase they have to recreate the conditions or whatever, it would take the computer 12 hours to do it.

Back on Caprica, Starbuck wants to kill Sharon but Helo won't let her. When Helo and Sharon are going to leave in the Raider, Helo can't leave Sharon there. Helo goes back to find her. When they look back after a while, a squad of Cylons are at the Raider.

There is some stuff with Leoben (the Cylon that Adama hates and gets in everyone's head) where he keeps telling the President that this has all happened before and will happen again.

Another flashback shows Adama and Tigh in yet another barfight. Adama the force of reason. 10 years of barfights at that point.

The search for the fleet is fruitless and Tigh does not want to jump back and recalculate since there are likely Cylons there.

Gaeta comes up with a plan to jump back, network all the computers, do the calculation in 10 minutes and then jump out. Of course, networked computers are the thing the Cylons use to take over ships and systems. Gaeta thinks tha he can design a software firewall that will hold for the 10 minutes needed. Tigh doesn't like the plan. Adama will die if they don't get the surgeon on board soon to do the surgery.

He has a flashback to when Adama become a captain and had his own ship. Adama promoted Tigh to be his XO. Decides to chance it.

They give Lee parole so he can fly his Viper since the targeting computers will be down and they will be calcualting the jump coordinates and they need all the Vipers in the air.

After they jump in, there is one big fat Raider who is trying to hack the system while a bunch of other Raiders are attacking. No one knows that is the one, but the firewall is going down and the calcualtions are grinding to a hlt. Vipers are fighting them off, the guns on the galactics are missing everything.

The medics have to operate on Adama to repair his spleen and other leaking bits. None of them have ever operated, just patched field holes.

Lee notices the Fat Raider and fights his way through to blow it up. The guns are back online, the calcualtion is complete and the Vipers get back aboard the Galactica. They Jump out, rejoin the fleet and save Adama.

The ending flashback is kinda neat where Tigh gets promoted to join Adama (I had it a little out of order above).

......

Overall not THAT much happens I suppose. Adama is not completly out of the woods when it ends, Baltar et all are still on Kobol and Starbuck and Helo are still on Caprica. Either way - I can't wait for season two to begin. I have a lot of converts that have started watching the show after I told them about it and I know it will be good.

Do me a favor and don't share this outside the TFP. I don't think anyone can get in trouble and he didn't seem to care too much that it got out, but keep it somewhat under wraps. As you can see it is pretty detailed and could ruin things for SCIFI
