Kara shoves at them, trying to break free, but Helo's not stupid (except when it comes to his heart, but she's not one to throw stones), and his grip tightens.
I love this line.
Out in the black of space, hiding from her own vipers, she thinks about how easy it would be. Just a side-step with the blackbird, and she'll be gone into nowhere, speeding back towards Caprica.[snip]
But then one of her nuggets will say something over the comm, or she'll come around and spot a civilian ship--and Starbuck settles back, knowing that this is what she's supposed to be doing.
