The Demetrius Crew Quarters: Who should fill these seats?


A what-if for today: Imagine Kara had gotten to pick her crew for the Demetrius. Who do you think she would have chosen to go with her? (Helo's a given, right? But what about Athena? Racetrack was an obvious omission--she finds EVERYTHING!)  Tell us who you think she should have chosen and why, whether your reasons be cracky or totally serious! (Hey maybe there's someone you just want to see sweaty?)

If Kara had gotten to choose her crew, I could maybe see her asking Lee to come with her. (I can't see her thinking the quorum was all that important in comparison to finding earth.)

I can't see Papadama ever letting him go, tho.

Was Barolay on the crew?

Why not? You mean he wouldn't let him have the wings back/reinstated to go with Kara? I find that pretty unlikely.

Barolay was on the crew in the show--she got killed by the Six on the baseship and then Sam almost killed her.

:-( I try not to think about that.

Why not?

Because I don't think he had much confidence in Kara's mission, and he wouldn't have wanted to risk Lee. Plus, he never let Lee out of his sight much, as his commander.

But... he sent Lee to back up Kara in the surefire suicide mission in Res Ship 2. I mean thankfully it didn't come to that, but he had to imagine the end result would be that if they attempted to kill Cain, her whole crew would kill them possibly.

Yeah, though I think it differs because he still would've had his hand in the game in that situation - just a ship over, and if they'd succeeded, as of course they would, he'd've been Admiral. I think Adama always needed that feeling of some sort of control over Lee's life (and welfare).

I don't know, he walks away from his son without a care in the world pretty easily in the finale. (Grr. Inconsistent writing.)
