More than eighteen months after fleeing from New Caprica when The Cylons arrived, Admiral William Adama is planning a daring attack and rescue of the Human population on that planet. On the planet, the Insurrection, led by Saul Tigh, Laura Roslin, Galen Tyrol, and Tom Zarek are coordinating their efforts on the ground and with Galactica in preparation for the attack and uprising. In the Cylon Prison, Laura Roslin's new bride, Kara Thrace-Roslin, is quickly losing hope, suffering torture day after day at the hands of The Cylons.
