What do you want more than anything?
I did it. I found Earth. But here's the kicker, the great frakking cosmic joke that is my life; I found it, and it's all frakked to hell. I didn't want that part, but hey, I guess I don't get to frakking pick how it ends up, do I? Maybe it's some metaphor. Now I sound like Leoben.
What do I want now that we've found it? I want everything to be okay. I want this not to turn into New Caprica. I want the Cylons to leave us alone. I want someplace we can stay.
And I want things with Sam to work out, too. Because it's good, now, better than ever, but I just know it's going to end badly because that is what I do. I make things end badly.
I just want to stop frakking everything up.
What are your motivations for wanting this?
Earth? Survival of the human species. I think that's an admirable goal, don't you? That's me, Starbuck, a real humanitarian.
Sam? Well, it'd be nice to stop hurting him, for one. Because I do love him, even though he didn't wake me up on time today and I was late for my call. He's really hot in the morning--you would be late too, if you woke up next to that. And then dead, because I'd frakking kill you.
Why do I want to be less of a frak-up? I think that's self-explanatory, isn't it?
What would you do or have you done in order to achieve this?
Piss everyone off.
Is there anyone or anything that stands in your way of getting it?
Besides an entire Cylon army? Sure.
Me.
When you get what you want, then what?
I ruin everything. You not following along, here?
And I'll probably die. This is the thing I'm not telling Sam, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to die. Again.
What do you think you will get by having it or not having what you want?
What?
We get Earth, it means we have a home and can keep humanity alive. This is not an option. It will happen. I will die to see that it does, as we all will. We're done frakking running from these bastards. Earth is ours and we are going to fight for it.
Not having Sam--well, that'd be better for him, but he doesn't believe me. So. Look, I hate emotional questions, okay? He knows the answer. You do, right, Sam?
Does anyone else know what it is that drives you?
Yeah.
If so, whom?
Everyone. I'm not exactly subtle.
Are they a help or a hindrance toward your end goal?
Depends on what day it is.
