True, but I think what might have happened there was Cain wanting to guard against the prospect of dying with shame on his record if he in effect were defying an official order. Cain's sense of honor has to be very high to regard that point as important.

I think most fans who see the Pegasus surviving would argue that Cain made a sudden jump to light speed to get out of the area after he destroyed the lead two baseships, and this would only have been the result of a last micron change of plans in his mind that perhaps even he never anticipated when he made that final communication to Adama.
