Raptor relay

In Season 4’s “Escape Velocity“, Chief Galen Tyrol—who is suffering from the loss of his wife in the previous episode—is emotionally distraught and forgets to replace a relay in Racetrack and Skulls‘ Raptor. This failure results in the crash of the Raptor, from which both officers fortunately survive.

However this incident, and a very vocal confrontation with the Old Man at Joe’s Bar later on, result in Tyrol’s demotion to a mere specialist… which sees him painting bulkheads (hey, you can’t kill anyone painting!), doing jump rope in his quarters, and taking away young children from violent situations before said children’s mother simply goes Tarantino on a friendly rebel Cylon.
