So what are we supposed to do?
Sit on our hands and watch her get killed?

500
00:32:31,327 --> 00:32:35,456
Zarek's too smart to take another shot
at the President during the summit.

501
00:32:35,540 --> 00:32:38,668
If he wins the vote,
he can take her out later...

to find a better opportunity.

That's great.

Anyway, she says
she's not going to lose the vote.

the fleet on numerous occasions.

At this point, Jim, it is anyone's guess...

519

as to who's going to win,
but my money is on Gaius. Dr. Baltar.

520
