It's been long enough since he dressed like a civilian that Adama looks completely ill at ease -- above and beyond the way he moves. Plenty of exertion -- too much, he guesses Dr. Tam will say -- means he's leaning heavily on a cane as he emerges from the infirmary and makes his way slowly down the hall.

By the time he lowers himself into an armchair, he's breathing heavily, too.

It's a few minutes before he signals a waitrat and requests a bottle of water. The change of scenery's worth it, but he's not looking forward to making the return trip any time soon.
