 | Season 4 / Episode 14: - Blood on the Scales (2) Number Six: [after he cut off her sexual advances] But, I want to make you feel better. Dr. Gaius Baltar: Cut off my legs. I ran. Again. I disappeared in the nick of time, again. |
 | Season 4 / Episode 9: - Hub Dr. Gaius Baltar: I gave the access codes to the Cylons. They wiped out most of humanity. Of course, I didn't know what I was doing at the time exactly, but that's what I did. And when I realized what I had done, the magnitude, in that moment I was saved. I was loved. By God. Looking back, I think I was rewarded. President Laura Roslin: Rewarded? Dr. Gaius Baltar: Pythia talks about a flood. Wiped out most of humanity. Nobody blames the flood. The flood is a force of nature. Through the flood mankind is rejuvenated, born again. I was another flood, you see. I blamed myself. I blamed myself. But God made the man that made that choice. God made us all perfect. And in that thought, all my guilt flies away. Flies away like a bird. |
 | Season 4 / Episode 5: - The Road Less Traveled (1) Phoebe: [standing before Baltar who is seated and surrounded by his devotees] I need you to tell me this all somehow makes sense. [showing him a family group photo] This was my husband, James. My two children, Danya and Reece. They were on Picon when the Cylons attacked. Dr. Gaius Baltar: [after looking around the room at all the expectant faces] What do you feel when you look at this photograph? Phoebe: I feel rage. Dr. Gaius Baltar: Against the Cylon? Phoebe: Mmmm... [Shaking her head] Not just the machines, anyone involved. The engineers who designed them... The corporations... The politicians... who provoked this war and then did nothing to protect us... And most of all, the Gods. Dr. Gaius Baltar: The Gods? They stood by and let it all happen. Yes, I know. I know. [Stands up, hands the photo back and warmly hugs her] I am so sorry Phoebe. [Stands back and returns toward his chair] Sit with us. Dr. Gaius Baltar: [back in his chair, he takes the microphone to the recording device] Unfortunately, the Gods cannot be blamed for not coming to you aid. It's not because they weren't listening. It's because they don't exist. The Gods we've been praying to for thousands of years do not exist. They can't help you, because they are not real. We have been pandering to our own ignorance for far too long. Dr. Gaius Baltar: [cut to Chief Tyrol's quarters where he is jumping rope and his stepson Nickolas is in the playpen. We hear Baltar continue over the radio] Now, on my own journey. I've been wronged, persecuted. I prayed to the Gods... on my knees, begging them for mercy, tortured. I recieved nothing in... Dr. Gaius Baltar: I could have lived in that abyss of bitterness, but that will destroy you like nothing else. [Tyrol listens as if those words truly struck home and starts jumping rope again] But I chose to forgive. And most importantly, I began with myself. |
| Season 4 / Episode 5: - The Road Less Traveled (1) Dr. Gaius Baltar: The past is written, impossible to change. Why are so many of us living in the past, living with the shame of what we have done, when we could live in awe of what we might do? What we might do. [We see Chief Tyrol coming upon the fringes of the meeting and listening] What will we do? Spiral endlessly through the heavens until humanity itself comes to a close? [We see Tigh appear in the corridor behind Tyrol] Or do we look inward and find that strength within? Colonel Saul Tigh: [Coming up behind Tyrol and speaking quietly to him. Baltar's word become more and more indistinct and fades into background noise] Can you believe these people are actually buying into Baltar's crap? We need to talk. Chief Galen Tyrol: I don't have anything to say to you. Colonel Saul Tigh: Well, then you can listen. Come with me. [They turn and walk several feet back into the corridor] I've been cutting you some slack because of Cally, but that's over. You gotta pull yourself together *now.* Chief Galen Tyrol: Suck it up. Just like you,huh? Colonel Saul Tigh: Now what is that supposed to mean? Chief Galen Tyrol: Hear you've been spending some time in the lockup with the Six. Remember when this all started? You said nothing would change you from the man you want to be. Well, how about it, Colonel? You still the same old Saul Tigh? Colonel Saul Tigh: Anything I've done I can live with. Chief Galen Tyrol: Well, that's the difference between you and me. I can't. Chief Galen Tyrol: Tory's got it in her head that we can be the salvation of the human race. All I know is if there is a God, he's laughing his ass off. |
 | Season 4 / Episode 2: - Six of One (2) Dr. Gaius Baltar: [after talking out loud to a "Baltar" only he can see] I am talking to you. Why did you come here? Tory Foster: Maybe it was a mistake. Well, I can't stop thinking about what's happened. You were found innocent when everyone hated you. I hated you. And this healed boy, the return of Kara Trace. I mean everyone thought she was dead. so perhaps there are miracles. Dr. Gaius Baltar: [the unseen "Baltar" interjects:] Perhaps. Tory Foster: The thing is, somehow you seem to be at the center of them. Dr. Gaius Baltar: Yes, I do, don't I? I don't understand myself, to be honest. Just... Well, it seems that God has chosen me to... sing his song. Tory Foster: A song? Dr. Gaius Baltar: Music. Did you say music? Tory Foster: No. Dr. Gaius Baltar: Yeah, you know, it's funny. It's a lot like that. It's like the distant chaos of an orchestra tuning up. And then somebody waves a magic wand, and all of those notes start to slide into place. A grotesque,screeching cacophony becomes a single melody. Tory Foster: [becomes very disturbed and leaves abruptly] I really shouldn't be seen here. |
| Season 4 / Episode 2: - Six of One (2) Dr. Gaius Baltar: [talking about her habit of crying during sex] Don't be sorry. Why should you apologize? You should be thankful. You have an abundance of feeling. Tory Foster: I really never thought of it like that. Dr. Gaius Baltar: Well, I mean, you're blessed, aren't you? Tory Foster: I don't know, I guess. [shrugs] I suppose I could be a Cylon. Dr. Gaius Baltar: Well, I don't know about that. Human beings don't exclusively hold the patent on suffering. Cylons can feel. Tory Foster: You believe that? Dr. Gaius Baltar: Yeah, I do, actually. I've spent time amongst them. Man may have made them, but God's at the beginning of the string, isn't he? It's God who imbued them with a soul. The one true God. Tory Foster: One God? Dr. Gaius Baltar: The one true God. You know, I'm becoming increasingly tired of holding that in. Of denying that essential truth. |
 | Season 4 / Episode 1: - He That Believeth In Me (1) Dr. Gaius Baltar: [praying for Derek] God, I'm only going to ask you this one last time: Don't let this child die. Has he sinned against you? He can't have sinned against you. He's not even had a life yet. How can you take him and let me live? After all I've done... really, if you want someone to suffer, take me. We both know I deserve it. Selfish and weak. I have failed so many people. And I have killed. I'm not asking for your forgiveness. I'm just asking that you spare the life of this innocent child. Don't take him, take me. Take me, please. |
| Season 4 / Episode 1: - He That Believeth In Me (1) Number Six: Yesterday, you were facing execution. Today, you're free. Why the long face? Dr. Gaius Baltar: Oh, gee, I don't know. From President of the colonies to this. King of fools. Probably best to be hated by everyone than loved by this lot. Doomed to live out the rest of my life in this loony bin. I don't know, that might have something to do with my rather savage mood swings. Number Six: Relax, Gaius. You think I've brought you this far just to let it end here? Dr. Gaius Baltar: I need some encouragement. A ray of hope about the future. An inkling. Number Six: You've got me. I'm here for you. |
| Season 4 / Episode 1: - He That Believeth In Me (1) Tracey Anne: [walking in and seeing Gaius on his knees seemly in prayer; not knowing that Number Six had been comforting him by saying she was there for him] That is so beautiful. Dr. Gaius Baltar: [he opens his eyes and looks around] Hello. Sorry, what? Tracey Anne: The way you were praying. Dr. Gaius Baltar: [noticing he had his palms together in an attitude of prayer] Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, thank you, yeah. Tracey Anne: [she comes over and sits down facing Gaius] Not some hollow ritual. Dr. Gaius Baltar: No, no. Tracey Anne: It's as if the Gods are right here beside you. Dr. Gaius Baltar: Well, yeah. Tracey Anne: When I pray to the gods... [we see Number Six watching them with interest] I feel empty. Dr. Gaius Baltar: Do you? That's a shame, isn't it? Number Six: Her gods are false. Tell her. Dr. Gaius Baltar: [Tracey reaches up and strokes his hair] Well, if you feel empty when you pray to Zeus or Poseidon or Aphrodite, it's because it is. It's a totally empty experience. [she begins unbuttoning Gaius' shirt] They're not real. They've been promulgated by a ruling elite, to stop you from learning the truth. Tracey Anne: And what truth is that? Tracey Anne: That's a very good question. What is the... the... Number Six: There's only one God. Dr. Gaius Baltar: [Tracey begins unbuttoning her blouse] There is only one God. In a nutshell, that's the truth. We're alone here,aren't we? The others aren't coming back soon. [She grins and shakes her head] And the door's locked. All right, good. Tracey Anne: [She takes Gaius' hands and places them on her uncovered breasts] Can you feel God's presence? Dr. Gaius Baltar: You know what? I think I do. Dr. Gaius Baltar: So do I. Dr. Gaius Baltar: Do you? Do you, too? We both feel... [Fade as they start to kiss and slide toward the floor] |
 | Season 3 / Episode 13: - Taking a Break from All Your Worries Dr. Gaius Baltar: Please. Please, Help me. Number Six: I'm not sure I can, Gaius. Pain is one thing, but this... without free will, what are you? Can God even pity such a creature? |
| Season 3 / Episode 13: - Taking a Break from All Your Worries President Laura Roslin: Doctor, did you conspire with her to subvert our defense system? Dr. Gaius Baltar: Conspiracy requires intent. I never intended... though she said deep down I'd always suspected. But I didn't know. How could I know? Did I conspire? Did I? No. No. I don't know. No. It wasn't my fault. It wasn't my fault! I am not responsible! |
| Season 3 / Episode 13: - Taking a Break from All Your Worries Dr. Gaius Baltar: I know I'm flawed! I never claimed to be - mistakes! Mistakes were made! Terrible mistakes! Were they mine? Am I solely to blame? |
 | Season 3 / Episode 11: - The Eye of Jupiter (1) Dr. Gaius Baltar: Can't believe how much I actually miss this place. Number Six: You know you can't return. They'd toss you out the nearest airlock and then throw a party! |
| Season 3 / Episode 11: - The Eye of Jupiter (1) Dr. Gaius Baltar: [Walking through Galactica with the Cylon delegation] I can't believe how much I actually miss this place. Number Six: You know you can't return. They'd toss you out the nearest airlock and then throw a party. Dr. Gaius Baltar: Yes, I know. Still, I can't help feeling I'm finally home. Number Six: If you're really a Cylon, one of the final five, then these feelings are just part of your programming, part of your cover. Dr. Gaius Baltar: And if I'm a human being after all, if I'm not one of the final five, then this is the last chance I'll get to see my kind again. |
| Season 3 / Episode 11: - The Eye of Jupiter (1) Admiral William Adama: What's your offer? D'Anna Biers: You give us the Eye of Jupiter. We let you go. Brother Cavil: And... we'll throw in Baltar. Dr. Gaius Baltar: [to Cavil] What are you talking about now? [to D'Anna] What's he saying? D'Anna Biers: [to Cavil] Indeed? Brother Cavil: I am improvising. Throw in something to sweeten the pot. Besides, I suspect the Admiral and Madam President would enjoy some nice, quiet private time with the former leader. Am I right? Colonel Saul Tigh: Worth thinking about. Admiral William Adama: Definately worth thinking about. |
| Season 3 / Episode 11: - The Eye of Jupiter (1) Brother Cavil: We have a stand-off, very predictable. They have the Eye and they'll nuke it if we try to take it, and we'll shoot them down if they try bringing it up to Galactica. Leoben Conoy: Are we sure that they have it? How do we know they're not bluffing? Dr. Gaius Baltar: You don't. D'Anna Biers: We Threes feel that we can't afford to take the chance. Brother Cavil: I think we're missing the big picture here. We have the oppotunity to rid the universe of the human pestilence, once and for all. Number Six: We can discuss that after we get the Eye of Jupiter, after we find the path to Earth. Brother Cavil: Let me point out that it doesn't matter if we find Earth in five days, or if we find Earth in five thousand years. We're machines. We'll still be around to savor the great miracle. So let them destroy the Eye, if indeed they have it. We have to take advantage of the situation and take down Galactica once and for all... or we could stand here and do nothing. |
 | Season 3 / Episode 3: - Exodus (1) Dr. Gaius Baltar: [to Caprica Six] Well let me tell you about my day. It was a hoot. Had the most fascinating chat with one of the Dorals. He's got this theory about sanitation being the key to regaining human trust and confidence. Something about toilet paper. No, lack of toilet paper, that's it. How if people could only wipe their bums properly, there would be a measurable uptick in the polls. |
 | Season 3 / Episode 2: - Precipice (2) Dr. Gaius Baltar: You don't need my signature. D'Anna Biers: Well, actually we do. We're here as allies and friends of the legitimate government of the colonies. You are the president so everything we do requires your signature. Brother Cavil: In other words, they are worried about what God might think if they commit murder. They are covering their existential asses! |
 | Season 1 / Episode 7: - Six Degrees of Separation Dr. Gaius Baltar: [shouting] No more Mr. Nice Gaius! Captain Lee 'Apollo' Adama: Come on Starbuck, you can do it. Captain Lee 'Apollo' Adama: Ah, that smarts... that smarts, but I don't care... Lt. Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace: You don't care? Captain Lee 'Apollo' Adama: I don't care, because your pain is my entertainment. Captain Lee 'Apollo' Adama: Your crutches of death, sir. Use them wisely. Lt. Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace: Shut up. Dr. Cottle: It's gonna hurt like hell, but it's supposed to. Lt. Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace: Thanks. Captain Lee 'Apollo' Adama: No pain, no gain. No cliche left unturned, as Kara Thrace returns to the world of the walking. Can she do it, or will she fall on her ass? Lt. Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace: I swear to the gods I'm going to beat the crap out of both of you as soon as I get better... |
