[Flashpoint]

So what of Admiral Cain?

Is this woman a monster? Or a warrior doing what she has to in order to survive? Is she the person to make the hard decisions for the good of mankind? Or just a madwoman bent on revenge for the destruction of the Colonial fleet?

Or worse yet a Cylon? Part of some unknown plan, which does not call for the immediate destruction of all humans? The Pegasus appears to be in fine fighting trim - well armed, sophisticated, and fully staffed. How is this possible? Galactica was spared in the inital Cylon attack because its systems weren't networked. Cain indicated she made a blind jump to flee the attack. Her first officer indicated they had seen combat where she shot her own XO in front of the bridge staff.

She claims her goal is the liberation of the Colonial homeworlds from the Cylons. How can she think this is a possiblity with only 2 battlestars and a population of merely 50K?

Or is her goal more realistic than that of Adama and Rosaline? Who are following visions and scripture to a mythical planet - location unknown.


A great new character.
