Video Flagged Dead

Space Diva: a celebration of Starbuck (Battlestar Galactica)

This clip combines two of my favorite things: Luscious Jackson and Battlestar Galactica's Katee Sackhoff. I can barely wait for Season 4. Someone who is as demented as I am, please tell me if that "grab your gun and bring in the cat" quip is a known quote...
uhohzombiessays...

In the original pilot mini-series script, Kara's morning jog includes the lines "Whaddya hear?" "Nothin' but the rain." "Then grab your gun and pull the cat out" This was a Marine-style marching cadence that the special effects people later requested be re-used in the Viper battle sequence in Part 2. In the final cut the line reads "Grab your gun, and bring in the cat." In "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I," Kara again uses the expression "bringing the cat home".

I assume it's just a military thing in the BSG universe, and it was a moment of solidarity between Adama and Thrace, given how he sees her as a daughter.

exactly. this was confirmed on the miniseries commentary track by Ron D.Moore and in my opinion both livened the show up as well as made it more realistic (I know, that's an almost impossible feat - 1/3 sarcasm).
