Hello, and welcome to the podcast, I'm Ronald D. Moore, the executive producer and developer of the new Battlestar Galactica, and I'm here to welcome you to the first podcast of season four. We're here to talk about episode 403, "He That Believeth In Me". You'll find that I will be continually referring to numbers that make no sense to all of you, (laughs) as I discuss the season in this and subsequent podcasts, because essentially— it's not as complicated as it sounds, it's actually— "Razor" were filmed as the first— were filmed at the beginning of the fourth season and we count "Razor" as episodes one and two, "He That Believeth In Me" is essentially number three to us. And so, internally there's a— I'm used to referring to these episodes by that nomenclature, so I'm— I always call this episode three. So. I think, therefore, what you want is another bit of Galactica arcane of— for all of you.

Anyway, at the end of "Crossroads" number two, we found ourselves in an interesting position here with Baltar and the rest of the Fleet. And, of course, being Battlestar Galactica, we didn't really have a solid idea of exactly how we were gonna pick up season four. This storyline, as you're seeing, is reviewed there with Baltar, we did have some conversations about where that was going, we had some general ideas of how we were gonna play the Final Four into the fourth season, and we knew Kara was coming back, obviously. And it felt like the puzzle pieces were in place, we felt like we were at a good place in terms of the narrative and where we were all going, and it didn't feel like we really had to continue to break out exactly what the season opener was as we continued to work on the finale of season three. (coughs) Excuse me. In retrospect, I think that that was wise, to provide a freshness to when we got down to actually breaking these episode— this episode and subsequent stories in the fourth season. We did talk, pretty early on, about the fact that season four would open with a direct pickup from last year, that we would essentially come straight back into the moment that we left, that Lee is still out there with Kara, and the audience has been given a taste that there really is an Earth out there someplace.
