I just got to rewatch this episode without glitching every other moment, so I think I'm ready to talk about it now. Although I fear a great deal of what I'm about to say is massively personally biased crack!
So, I give you: the episode in which everyone except Adama learns that you can wake up one day and decide, "to hell with the rules."
(
How the quieter Lee scenes fit to illustrate the theme. )
