“Weapons Locker 1701D” note

In Season 4′s “The Ties That Bind“, Cally Tyrol—who is already suspicious of her husband, believing that he’s being unfaithful to her—discovers a note in the maildrop cubby of their quarters. This note, left by Colonel Tigh, notes a time and place for a meeting. However, Chief Tyrol doesn’t get it, as Tory Foster tells him of the meeting.

Believing that this is a rendezvous for her cheating husband, she goes to 1701D, finds a crawlspace and listens in on their conversation. Learning the truth about her husband, she returns to their quarters where she violently accosts her husband, takes his keys, and decides to take their baby, Nicky, with her. This ultimately leads to her own death, which causes Chief Tyrol’s life to sprawl out of control—from not replacing burnt relays, an admission about Cally’s hygiene during a verbal sparring session with the Old Man about clubs and things of that nature, a demotion, and being outed as a Cylon.

The interesting thing about the note, aside from the wholly unnecessary, corny Star Trek reference, is that the props department came up with two additional versions of this note as well.
