Season 3 of BSG involves one of the most well-executed season-long (more actually) story arcs in sci fi history. Although Exodus Part I is not one of the most exciting episodes in this arc, it sets up some important relationships and situations which will play out very well in later episodes within the arc.
Adama is making plans to return to New Caprica to rescue the colonists from the Cylon occupation, while Lee is ordered to protect the civilian fleet with Pegasus. Sharon will lead the rescue party. Meanwhile Starbuck continues to undergo psychological experimentation and torture at the hands Leoben Conoy; the resistance on New Caprica begins to experience serious breaches, and Baltar's alienation from the colonists and his depression become more profound.
Very good episode - but don't bother if you haven't seen its predecessors. Season three won't make much sense watched out of sequence.
