A few minutes later, the action has shifted to the 2008 Russo-Georgian War, where the Orthodox chaplain of a particularly rapacious and kleptomaniacal Russian unit changes from his religious costume to his military one, briefly revealing his mob tattoos.

In the nineteenth century, French psychiatrists began to observe kleptomaniacal behavior, but were constrained by their approach. By 1890, a large body of case material on kleptomania had been developed. Hysteria, imbecility, cerebral defect, and menopause were advanced as theories to explain these seemingly nonsensical behaviors, and many linked kleptomania to immaturity, given the inclination of young children to take whatever they want. These French and German observations later became central to psychoanalytic explanations of kleptomania.

An attempt on Lampkin's life follows, again by bomb. A hospitalized and drugged Lampkin admits kleptomaniacal habits to Lee, and in the collection of items that he has "borrowed" during his time on Galactica is what Lee recognizes as a military-issue explosive detonator. Lampkin "borrowed" it (not knowing what it was) from Aaron Kelly, who is thus revealed as the bomber. Lampkin is portrayed as ethically sketchy, using deceit and manipulation to learn useful information.

Windlings are often somewhat mischievous, hedonistic, and eager for new experiences, and are culturally similar to the Kender of Krynn, but without the same kleptomaniacal tendencies. They have wings similar to those of a dragonfly and are one to two feet in height. # Leafer: A race native to the Dark Forest of Vasgothia, leafers are sentient plant Name-Givers. # Ulkmen: Another race unique to Vasgothia, the ulkmen are Name-Givers that have been merged with Horrors.

Oddly, in this episode, Mother states that she was married for "nearly forty years". It was established in series 1, episode 5, that Edina turned 40, the implication thus being that Edina was born before her parents were married. Mother displays a kleptomaniacal streak at times, taking random items from Edina's household (mugs, ashtrays, clothing) and donating them to the charity shop she volunteers at. In series 4, episode 5, "Small Opening", she is seen to be stealing larger pieces of furniture and asks for Patsy's help to remove a wardrobe that has become "stuck on the stairs" that she is donating to Sheltered Housing.
