Matthew Tully's Exit Interview

Matthew's really ok with going home so early....

BSG Love for Matthew

We hardly knew ye, Matthew, and we wished you could have stayed around longer. However, we do understand how you missed your wife (and she undoubtedly missed your charming self as well) and that going home was probably not the worst thing in the world.
