[Lee orders Kara to take stimulants and she refuses]

Lt. Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace:
Why are we arguing about this?

Captain Lee 'Apollo' Adama:
I have no idea.

Starbuck:
Neither do I! You're the CAG, act like one.

Apollo:
What the hell does that mean?

Starbuck:
It means that you're still acting like you're everyone's best friend. We're not friends, you're the CAG. "Be careful out there"? Our job isn't to be careful, it's to shoot Cylons out of the frakking sky! "Good Hunting" is what you say. And now one of your idiot pilot is acting like a child and refusing to take her pills. So she either says 'Yes, sir' and obeys a direct order, or you smack her in the mouth, and you drag her sorry ass down to sickbay, and you MAKE her take those pills.

[They both glare at each other for a long moment, then burst into laughter]

Apollo:
Well, I'm glad I'm not working for you.

Starbuck:
You're damn right you're glad...

Apollo:
So, do I have to smack you on the mouth, Lieutenant?

Starbuck:
No sir, I'll take my pills. [Lee holds out the drugs] Oh. Perfect... [She takes the pills, crunching loudly]

Apollo:
Carry on.

Lt. Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace:
[salutes] Yes, sir! [sees Chief Tyrol staring at him] WHAT?
