"Final Cut" is the eighth episode of the second season of the reimagined ''Battlestar Galactica'' television series. It aired originally on the Sci Fi Channel on September 9, 2005. In the episode, journalist D'Anna Biers tapes a report on life aboard ''Galactica'' and uncovers a plot against Colonel Saul Tigh. She discovers the pregnant Number Eight copy (Sharon) being held secretly aboard the ship, but Commander William Adama forbids her to include it in her final report. However, Biers is a Cylon, and she shares the footage of Sharon with her Cylon brethren. "Final Cut" received mixed critical reception. ==Plot== In "Resistance", Tigh ordered supplies taken by force from civilian ships. On the civilian ship ''Gideon'', Marines commanded by Lieutenant Joe Palladino opened fire on a hostile but unarmed crowd of civilians, killing four. Biers is preparing a report on what she calls the "''Gideon'' massacre." Hoping to influence Biers to produce a more "balanced" report, Adama grants her unrestricted access to document life aboard ''Galactica''. Biers conducts frank interviews with crew members and captures some pilots' hijinks on camera. After Kat overdoses on stimulants and botches a landing, Biers follows her to ''Galactica''s sickbay. There, she discovers Doctor Cottle treating Sharon for a complication with her pregnancy. Adama confiscates the footage, but Biers secretly keeps a copy. She then records the crew during a successful defense against incoming Cylon Raiders and uncovers a disgruntled Palladino as the perpetrator of death threats and an assassination attempt on Tigh. In her final report, Biers describes arriving on ''Galactica'' with a bias against the crew but changing her mind. Pleased with the report, Adama recommends it be shown throughout the fleet. On Caprica, several Cylons also watch the report, as well as the secret footage of Sharon. A copy of Biers, who is apparently a Cylon, sits with them, reveals that the Raiders were called to ''Galactica'' to relay this footage, and calls the unborn child "a miracle from God." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Final Cut (Battlestar Galactica)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
