Rogue commander Barnabas of the Caprican STO cell has ordered Lacey and some other foot soldiers to blow up the interplanetary spaceport, but she’s having second thoughts – there are too many people. Really? Who would have thought? It’s an act of terrorism, it’s supposed to kill as many people as possible. Yet things go amiss when a security agent asks to see inside Lacey’s bag. That didn’t just get her nearly arrested, it nearly got them killed. They end up in a fight and Lacey takes off into the pouring rain.
Daniel Graystone is donning a ridiculous beard. Why? (Supposedly, because he’s grieving over his wife, to whom he lied and blames for the death of Zoe?) Didn’t anyone tell him he’s a redhead? At any rate, to get back into business, he is blackmailing board members for support to get him in place at his former corporation – and if that won’t help there’s always Adama’s mobster brother to roughen things up. One of the executives blows his brains out. Ever faithful Cyrus brings the U-87 to Daniel, lying to Vergis he’d melted it down for scrap.
Clarice learns that the botched bombing was targeted to assassinate her. (Wait! She was already back from Gemenon last week. Continuation error?) She visits one of her former pupils who was there with Lacey. She forgives him – and then drops his tv in the bathtub with him. “It’s God you should be worried about,” she told him. Then one of her hoodlums takes out another one of the foot soldiers who was at the spaceport. That just leaves Lacey, who – unlike the other two – has the guts to face Barnabas. When he asks her to promise her loyalty, she swears she’s committed to God. (She’d better be committed, period, but that’s just the Cricket chirping.) Then Clarice barges in, kidnaps Lacey and blows Barnabas to smithereens.
The sole detective able to piece together that Sister Clarice must be the linchpin behind the STO terrorists, talks to Amanda Graystone hoping to convince her that Clarice is a monotheism spouting menace to society responsible for the death of her daughter Zoe. Amanda is puzzled by flashbacks of Zoe wearing the STO emblem, of Clarice talking about god in the singular. She can no longer deny the truth. Through flashbacks we also learn that Daniel visited Amanda in the hospital after her attempted suicide, but they had a fight.
