Characters were also perfect.

Scott, PM me. I have Galactica's Director's contact details. It might be worth a shot?...

Nice job, Scott, it read like a real episode of BG. And a hand to Mdesai1982 for finding this one after nearly a year and no comments, glad it didn't slip through the cracks.

A few minor errors. Some of your exposition lines got merged into dialogue in a few places, might be the result of conversion error. The teaser should just be about the discovery of the Cylon wreckage, and the unknown ship. Duala's storyline should begin the next act. Also, probably the biggest thing is that if you're writing a spec episode, you should steer away from dramatic story arc changes, and that's what you've done here. I'm not saying it's not an interesting take, but I think you're better off keeping the story within the normal parameters. But overall nice job and well written.

Got to have something to keep me going before the final season.
