Lee Adama is assigned to the Pegasus since the commander is having some troubles - especially with Starbuck. Two Raptors go missing and it appears that they are responding to a distress beacon. Starbuck and Apollo warn the commander that this could be a ruse by the Cylons to draw them out but he goes against orders and jumps the Pegasus for a rescue anyway. When three Cylon Basestars appear, things look bleak for the Battelstar, especially when the FTL engins are knocked out.
