Oh MAN! I feel like Kaylee looked after Jayne said "that's why I never kiss 'em on the mouth."find a happy place, Find A Happy Place, FIND A HAPPY PLACE!
First thing I did when I got in here was do a search for "boxey" and find it odd that no one has mentioned him as a candidate.
If he were, that might explain how the latest Cylon infiltrator knew Starbuck's name and everything. Because she had been spending time with Boxey and he unknowingly transmitted the information back to the Cylon mainframe.
Besides, it would be a good reason to do away with a character I've always deemed unnecessary. Yes, he's been changed for this series, but still... why?
Quote:It's a nice theory, but doesn't take into account Gaius' extreme sense of self-preservation, or the "me me me me me" aspect of his psyche. He'd see any liaison with Starbuck as a good grapple with a woman of power and that's that. In fact, I could see the #6 mirage "watching" during the act.

Kara would never sink to his level, but I'm wondering if she would have any kind of polarizing effect on him... could she crack the "I'm not at fault" shell Gaius has around himself, and the hold that (imaginary?) #6 has over him?
Oh, and now I'm feeling whoozy again....

Just a note on the number of Cylon models. If we count the full-on machene type soldier Cylons as a model and the bio-engineered space fighter type as another model, that makes 6 models that we know about.

I believe we can definitely count the chrome "toaster" models from the original series. One of them was displayed in the museum hangar pod on Galactica in the mini-series and 6 referred to them saying; "Those models are still around. They have their uses."
You may also want to consider if the Cylon Basestars count as a model type.

Out of curiosity.. why would a supremely advanced race of robots be limited to 12 models anyway? surely they would update their machine shop sometime.

That's a good one. Maybe their version of 'Deep Thought' spit out the number 12 instead of 42.
I noticed there are 12 Colonial Planets. Maybe it has something to do with that.

Weren't there 12 snakes in the President's vision as well?
All I can say for today's epi is, Poor Helo! He just doesn't get a break. Got the girl he wanted, now he finds she's a cylon.

That would make Earth the lucky thirteen. Hurrah for us!

Actually, before our current yearly calendar, there were 13 zodiac signs.
Note that the 12 Colonies are all based on the zodiac.
So, what was Zodiac 13? Ophidiuchus. The Snake-bearer. . .
