Lieutenant Junior Grade '''Sharon "Boomer" Valerii''', serial number T-990429, appears to be a young pilot recently-assigned to shipboard operations. Assigned to flying the Raptor reconnaissance vehicle, her inexperience is demonstrated through repeated rough landings aboard ''Galactica'' ([[Miniseries]]). | |||
As a pilot, she is assigned alongside [[ECO]] [[Karl Agathon|Karl "Helo" Agathon]], with whom she has developed a close friendship. She has also formed friendships with other pilot officers aboard the battlestar, sharing off-duty activities, such as regular card games ([[Miniseries]], [[Act of Contrition]]), all of which have helped her integrate into shipboard life and be accepted as a member of the crew. She had been serving on board ''Galactica'' for two years prior to the Cylon attack ([[The Farm]]). | |||
== Biography == | |||
=== Agent in Disguise === | |||
Initially, "Boomer" Valerii is a "sleeper" agent, unaware of her Cylon status. As far as she is aware, she was born on the mining colony of Troy, the daughter of a family from Aerelon ([[Flesh and Bone]]). Troy itself was destroyed in an unexplained cataclysm, allowing Boomer's background to be established as that of an orphan. | |||
Following her arrival on-board ''Galactica'', she enters into a relationship with the ship's Chief Petty Officer [[Galen Tyrol]], which is against military protocols concerning fraternization between officers and non-officers. Whether this is unintentional or a subconcious reaction to her Cylon personality program is unclear. | |||
At the time of the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|Cylon attack]], Boomer is flying her Raptor to [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Caprica|Caprica]] with ''[[Galactica]]'s'' last remaining operational [[Viper (RDM)|Viper]] squadron when they learn of the attacks and attempt to engage two [[Cylon Raider]]s. However, the Viper squadron is destroyed (their ships powered down by their tainted [[CNP]]), and the Raptor is damaged while trying to escape, forcing Boomer and Helo to make an emergency landing on [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Caprica|Caprica]]. | |||
After repairing the Raptor, Helo and Boomer are mobbed by desperate civilians and undertake an unexpected rescue operation, lifting a number of children and adults from the planet. However, Helo chooses to give up his place aboard the Raptor so that Dr. [[Gaius Baltar]] can be rescued ([[Miniseries]]). | |||
[[image:sharontyrol.jpg|Sharon and Tyrol|thumb]] | |||
After being found by [[Laura Roslin]]'s group of stranded military and civilian ships, Boomer works hard within the new civilian [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]], assisting Laura Roslin's attempts to gather other stranded civilian ships within the space surrounding Caprica as possible. She finds a number of ships critical to the fledgling Fleet's survival (such as a fuel tanker). After the Fleet (with ''Galactica'' leading it) leaves the solar system of the Colonies, Boomer aids in other critical acts, such as the discovery of a [[tylium]]-rich asteroid, replete with an active Cylon mine ([[The Hand of God (RDM)|The Hand of God]]), and locating a source of water to replenish the Fleet's lost supply after a sabotage of ''Galactica's'' stores ([[Water]]). | |||
=== The Sleeper Awakens === | |||
However, at the same time she is apparently supporting the Fleet, Boomer's underlying Cylon programming periodically emerges. Her Cylon programming is the cause of the sabotage ''Galactica's'' water tanks ([[Water]]). Later, she likely assists a copy of [[Aaron Doral]] to access to a munitions store. The Doral copy constructs a suicide bomb which very nearly kills [[William Adama|Commander Adama]] and [[Saul Tigh|Colonel Tigh]]. | |||
Having "awoken" to her human personality shortly after the bombs used to destroy ''Galactica's'' water tanks were planted, she finds herself soaking wet. Boomer's human personality becomes increasingly concerned that she is not all she appears. Her worry increases when she experiences a certain "attraction" to a captured [[Cylon Raider]], and is able to give insight into how it can be properly assessed and understood ([[Six Degrees of Separation]], [[Flesh and Bone]]). Her concerns are further elevated when, following the bombing by Doral, ''Galactica's'' [[Master-at-Arms]], Sergeant [[Hadrian]], suspects her and Tyrol of Cylon complicity ([[Litmus]]). | |||
Boomer is isolated from Tyrol following this event, and he later ends their relationship following the arrest of Specialist [[Socinus]] ([[Litmus]]). Facing Tyrol's own suspicions concerning her activities immediately before the bombing, Boomer finds herself emotionally isolated and stressed. She takes the Cylon detector test created by Dr. [[Gaius Baltar]]. Baltar hides the positive test results to cover himself from recrimination from other Cylon agents and lies to the young lieutenant ([[Flesh and Bone]]). Boomer finds short solace in his test results but deals with increasing anonymous accusations from others when she finds the word "CYLON" written on the mirror of her locker ([[Six Degrees of Separation]]). | |||
[[Image:Valshootadama.jpg|thumb|left|Sharon shoots Commander Adama.|thumb]] | |||
Frightened and isolated, Boomer withdraws into herself and attempts suicide, but finds herself initially unable to do so. During her second attempt, she is interrupted by Dr. Baltar who, rather than discouraging her, essentially gives her his blessing on her attempt. Following his departure from the bunkroom, Boomer succeeds in shooting herself, but her Cylon personality apparently interrupts the attempt. Boomer can only severely wound herself in the face ([[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I]]). | |||
After [[Kara Thrace|Starbuck]] absconds with the captured Raider intended for an attack on a basestar orbiting [[Kobol]], Commander Adama orders Boomer and ECO [[Margaret Edmondson|Racetrack]] to use a [[Cylon transponder]] in their Raptor to infiltrate the basestar and place a nuclear warhead within to destroy it. The mission is a success. However, when the weapon would not auto-release from the Raptor after landing, Boomer exits the ship and enters the basestar. Inside, she encounters a dozen copies of herself, confirming her worst fears. Boomer escapes in the Raptor while her copies caress the weapon just before it detonates and destroys the basestar. Back on ''Galactica'', her encounter with her copies on the basestar apparently forces Boomer's Cylon personality to emerge once more, with astonishing repercussions: on being congratulated for the mission, she shoots Commander Adama in the chest, critically wounding him ([[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II]]). | |||
=== Boomer's Dark Discovery and Demise === | |||
Boomer is quickly restrained by guards and jailed in the [[brig]]. During her emprisonment, Tigh attempts to forcibly extract information from her by gunpoint. Sharon's human and Cylon personalities appear to stonewall him ([[Scattered]]). Chief [[Galen Tyrol|Tyrol]] is later thrown in the same brig cell by Col. Tigh, also suspected of being a Cylon. While imprisoned together, Boomer tries to convince Tyrol that her feelings for him were real and important, but he rejects her and threatens to kill her if she touched him. | |||
[[Image:Sharondeath.jpg|Sharon dies in Tyrol's arms.|right|thumb]] | |||
Dr. [[Gaius Baltar]] later enters the cell, ostensibly to collect a blood sample from Tyrol to prove his innocence using the [[Cylon detector]], but instead Baltar injects Tyrol with a potent toxin that would kill him in a matter of seconds if Baltar doesn't give him an antidote. Baltar interrogates Sharon, demanding to know how many other Cylons were in the Fleet, using the dying Tyrol to blackmail her. Boomer, near hysterics, protests that she didn't know. Baltar insists that somewhere in her subconscious mind, underneath all of her programming and false memories, she truly ''does'' know and with a stressful enough stimulus, the information would come forward. At the last second, she cries out that there were eight other Cylons in the Fleet. Baltar revives Tyrol. | |||
Soon after, while being transferred to a new reinforced cell in the [[brig]] built to hold Cylons for later experiments, a large crowd of crewmembers jeers at her and calls her a traitor. An enraged [[Cally]] breaks through the crowd holding a gun and shoots Boomer at point-blank range. Dying in Tyrol's arms, her last words are "I love you, Chief" ([[Resistance (episode)|Resistance]]). | |||
Boomer's body is sent to the morgue and autopsied. The recovered [[William Adama|Commander Adama]] visits her corpse, asking "Why?" aloud, and weeps over her body. Commander Adama gives Cally a slap on the wrist by sentencing her to only 30 days in the brig for discharging a weapon without authorization. Cally is never tried for murder since Boomer wasn't human ([[The Farm]]). | |||
===A New Beginning=== | |||
[[Image:Cylon resurrection.jpg|thumb|left|''Galactica''-Sharon reborn in a new body|thumb]] | |||
However, Boomer's consciousness does not die. When Cally shoots "Boomer" Valerii, ''Galactica'' is close enough to the then-unknown Cylon [[Resurrection Ship]] so that her consciousness is retrieved for download into another body. Her resurrection occurs in the Caprica city of [[Delphi]] ([[Downloaded]]). On rebirth, Boomer rejects her Cylon nature and continues to call herself "Sharon" instead of "Eight," even going so far as to reclaim her former apartment. A copy of [[Number Three]], representing the status quo of the Cylons, is deeply disturbed by this, going so far as to suggest that Sharon be "[[boxed]]." | |||
[[Image:Boomer downloaded.JPG|thumb|Resurrected Valerii on Caprica ([[Downloaded]])]] Another "Hero of the Cylon", [[Caprica-Six]], protests vehemently, and Three advises her to get Sharon to change. When Sharon laments the loss of Tyrol, Six tells Sharon of her own love for Baltar, which prompts Sharon to inform her that Baltar is still alive. Realizing that Three has an ulterior motive, the two play along. After a [[Caprica Resistance]] bombing, Three, Sharon, and Six are trapped in a garage with [[Samuel Anders]]. Listening to the dry conversation, Six suddenly reveals the truth: "Sharon" and "Caprica" are celebrities in a culture of unity, and, through their love for human individuals, have realized the true horror of the Cylons' actions. Using their celebrity status, they could therefore convince a large portion of the rest of Cylon society of their new belief that the Cylon genocide of humanity was wrong. | |||
Boomer stops Anders from killing Three, and is shell-shocked when Six smashes Three's skull. After telling Anders to escape, Six begs Sharon to help her reveal the truth of the genocide to the other Cylons. Sharon eventually agrees, and a new path is forged ([[Downloaded]]). | |||
A year later, Boomer is one of the leaders of the Cylon force occupying [[New Caprica]], along with Caprica-Six and a [[Number Five]]. ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]). | |||
==Notes== | |||
*This Sharon Valerii is still referred to as the ''Galactica'' copy, even though she is now with the Cylons, because she was first encountered on ''Galactica''. Fans also refer to her as 'Tyrol-Sharon' (as opposed to 'Helo-Sharon') or just as 'Boomer' (as the callsign is more closely associated with her than with Caprica-Sharon, who is usually just called 'Sharon'). | |||
*[[Number Six]] rhetorically asks Baltar in "[[Flesh and Bone]]" why he thinks that Valerii got her callsign, "Boomer." | |||
**As shown twice in "[[Water]]" and by her destruction of the basestar in "[[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II]]," the ''Galactica'' Valerii appeared to have a penchant for blowing things up. This is inconsistent with her [[Boomer (TOS)|namesake]] from the [[TOS|Original Series]]. | |||
**Number Six could have been using sexual innuendo when she rhetorically asked why the ''Galactica'' Valerii's callsign was "Boomer." For example, regarding "[[Six Degrees of Separation]]," actress [[Grace Park]] said in interviews that she was so determined to make an enthusiastic lovemaking scene, i.e. copious amounts of moaning and the like, that when the scene director finished they flat out said their footage would have to be ''heavily'' edited.{{citation needed}} | |||
**Alternately, this may be a script joke referring to the anime ''[[Wikipedia:Bubblegum Crisis|Bubblegum Crisis]]''. ''Bubblegum Crisis'' generally focuses on police in conflict with rogue androids with a human appearance, referred to as "[[Wikipedia:Boomer (anime term)|boomers]];" some of these are sleepers. It should be noted that [[Boomer (TOS)|Boomer]] from the [[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)|original ''Battlestar Galactica'']] predates this usage. | |||
**'Boomer' is also a nickname for a ballistic missile submarine. "[[Karl Agathon|Helo]]" is a similar nickname for a helicopter. | |||
*During Season 1, ''Galactica''-Sharon parts her hair on the right side of her head, while Caprica-Sharon parts her hair on the left side of her head. | |||
==Questions== | |||
*With the upcoming evacuation of [[New Caprica]], what will become of Boomer, now that [[Sharon Agathon]] is a comissioned officer in the [[Colonial Fleet]]? | |||

"Galactica"-Kopie
Hintergrund
Lieutenant Junior Grade Sharon "Boomer" Valerii ist eine um die 25-jährige Frau, die dem Kolonialen Militär als Pilotin dient. Zur Zeit des großen Angriffs der Zylonen untersteht Sharon seit zwei Jahren dem Kommando von William Adama an Bord des Kampfstern Galactica.
Sharon fliegt Aufklärungsschiffe der Raptorklasse, ist aber keine sehr erfahrene Pilotin, wie so manch ruppige Landung beweist. Sie ist Copilot von Carl "Helo" Agathon, mit dem sie auch eine Freundschaft verbindet. Mit den anderen Piloten der Galactica versteht sie sich ebenfalls sehr gut und nimmt regelmäßig am gesellschaftlichen Leben nach Dienstschluss teil, beispielsweise beim Kartenspiel in der Offiziersmesse. Mit dem Deckoffizier Chief Galen Tyrol entwickelt sie eine Beziehung, die gegen die Regularien der Flotte verstoßen und deshalb von den Beiden im Verborgenem geführt wird.
Weder ihre Kameraden, noch sie selbst ahnen, dass sie eine zylonische Agentin ist. Sie ist der festen Überzeugung, in der Bergbaukolonie Troy als Tochter eine Familie von Aerelon geboren worden zu sein. Troy wurde auf bisher unbekannte Art zerstört und Sharon wurde als Waise geborgen.
Der Angriff
Während des vernichtenden Angriffs auf die zwölf Kolonien begleiten Helo und Sharon mit ihrem Raptor die letzte Schwadron moderner Viper-Kampfjäger auf dem Weg nach Caprica. Als sie von dem Angriff erfahren, attackieren sie zwei zylonische Jäger. Mit Hilfe des manipulierten Kontrollnavigationsprogramms gelingt es den Jägern, den Vipern die Energie abzuschalten und sie alle zu vernichten. Der Raptor wird dabei ebenfalls beschädigt und dadurch zu einer Notlandung auf Caprica gezwungen.
Nach der Reparatur retten die beiden noch einige Kinder und ein paar Erwachsene, die den gelandeten Raptor entdeckt haben. Wegen des begrenzten Platzangebots des Schiffes müssen die Passagiere ausgelost werden, und viele müssen zurückbleiben. Unter ihnen befindet sich auch Dr. Gaius Baltar, der bei der Verlosung der Plätze glücklos blieb. Als Helo ihn in der Masse entdeckt, opfert er seinen Platz für den Doktor, der seiner Ansicht nach wichtig für das Überleben der Menschheit sein könnte. Widerwillig lässt Sharon ihren Kameraden zurück.
Auf ihrem Weg zurück zur Galactica assistiert sie der neu eingeschworenen Präsidentin Laura Roslin bei ihrer Suche nach intakten Schiffen. Nach dem Aufbruch der Flotte wird sie von Adama für mehrere wichtige Missionen eingeteilt, wie zum Beispiel die Suche nach Wasser, nachdem die Vorräte des Kampfsterns nach einer Explosion stark dezimiert wurden. Sie ist es auch, die einen mit Tylium angereicherten Asteroiden entdeckt, der wichtigen Treibstoff für die Schiffe des Konvois liefert. Nach der Entdeckung von Kobol ist sie es, die damit beauftragt wird, eine Bombe in einem im Orbit befindlichen zylonischen Basisstern zu schmuggeln um diesen zu vernichten.
Zylonisches Unterbewusstsein
Während sie glaubt, der Flotte zu dienen, führt sie unbewusst Sabotageakte für die Zylonen aus. Sie platziert Bomben in den Wassertanks der Galactica und verschafft dem Zylonen Aaron Doral Zugang zum Munitionslager. Dieser ist dadurch in der Lage eine Bombe zu bauen , die beinahe Commander Adama und Colonel Tigh umbringt.
Nach der Platzierung der Bomben im Wassertank erwacht sie triefend nass und befürchtet nun, eine Zylonin zu sein. Ihr Verdacht verstärkt sich, als sie eine gewisse Anziehung zu einem gekaperten zylonischen Jäger verspürt. Auch andere Mitglieder der Crew beginnen sie zu verdächtigen, wie zum Beispiel Waffenmeister Sergeant Hadrian, der ihr und Chief Tyrol nach dem Bombenangriff auf Tigh und Adama Kooperation mit den Zylonen vorwirft.
Der Vorwurf kann nicht nachgewiesen werden und letztendlich landet Spezialist Socinus unschuldig im Gefängnis der Galactica. Chief Tyrol erkennt, dass seine heimliche Beziehung zu Sharon zu ernsthaften Problemen geführt hat und auch weiterhin führen wird und beendet die Sache. Sharon trifft dies hart und sie isoliert sich vom Rest der Crew. Als Baltar seinen Zylonendetektor fertig stellt, meldet Sharon sich freiwillig, um endlich Gewissheit zu bekommen. Der Test ist positiv, aber der Doktor verschweigt ihr das wahre Ergebnis und behauptet, sie sei menschlich.
Dies beruhigt ihren Verdacht kurzfristig, aber nur bis sie das Wort Zylone an ihrem Spiegel entdeckt. Sharon, die den Druck kaum noch ertragen kann, versucht sich mit der Pistole in ihrem Mund das Leben zu nehmen, aber ihr zylonisches Unterbewusstsein verhindert den Suizid. Sie schießt sich durch die Wange und wird verletzt zur Krankenstation gebracht, wo sie einige Tage verbringen muss.
Trotz ihrer Verletzung beordert Adama sie und Racetrack, eine Bombe in einen zylonischen Basisstern zu schmuggeln. Im Inneren des gigantischen Schiffes verlässt Sharon den Raptor um die Bombe zu platzieren. Dabei entdeckt sie eine ganze Gruppe weiterer Kopien ihrer selbst und erkennt dadurch endgültig ihre wahre Natur. Trotzdem führt sie die Mission aus und der Basisstern wird zerstört. Zurück an Bord der Galactica will Adama ihr zum Erfolg gratulieren, wird dann aber von Sharon mit zwei Schüssen in die Brust getroffen.
Gefängnis
Sharon, die sich im nächsten Moment schon nicht mehr an die blutige Tat erinnern kann, wird sofort von den Wachen überwältigt. Tigh übernimmt das Kommando und lässt sie einsperren. Auch Tyrol wird ins Gefängnis gebracht, weil er eine Beziehung mit ihr hatte und sich dadurch verdächtig machte. Sharon versichert ihm, dass ihre Gefühle nicht gespielt waren, aber dieser glaubt ihr nicht.
Um Tyrols Unschuld zu beweisen soll Baltar ihm eine Blutprobe entnehmen. Statt dessen injiziert er Tyrol ein tödliches Gift. Der Chief bricht zusammen und Baltar bietet der völlig aufgelösten Sharon an, dem Chief das Gegenmittel zu geben, wenn sie ihm Informationen über die Zylonen liefert. Sharon schreit ihn an, das sie nichts wisse, aber Baltar glaubt ihr nicht. Im letzten Moment erzählt sie ihm, dass es noch acht weitere Zylonen in der Flotte gäbe. Baltar verabreicht Tyrol daraufhin das Gegenmittel und kündigt weitere Versuche an Sharon an.
Sharon und Tyrol sollen in ein neues, verstärktes Gefängnis transferiert werden. Auf dem Weg durch die Gänge der Galactica zieht Crewman Spezialist Cally eine Waffe und erschießt Sharon. Sie stirbt in Tyrols Armen, nachdem sie ihm noch mal sagt, dass sie ihn liebt. Cally wird aufgrund dieser Aktion zu dreißig Tagen Gefängnis verurteilt, weil sie unerlaubt eine Waffe abgefeuert hat.
