Valerii explains that the [[Humanoid Cylon|humanoid Cylons]] have a flaw which renders them unable to reproduce biologically. The Cylons have been holding human women in "farms" to try to implant them with human/Cylon embryos. This effort has failed, however, leading the Cylons to believe that conception requires "love." Based on this theory, Valerii was able to conceive with Helo because of their love for each other. | ||

* | == Notes == | ||
* | *This episode's opening credits marks the return of the "blipvert" effect used in the first season episodes, which Ron D. Moore uses as an homage to ''Space: 1999''. | ||
* | *As of the opening credits, the fleet population is now 47,857, a net loss of 4 since "[[Resistance (episode)|Resistance]]". This reflects the deaths of four civilians on board the ''[[Gideon]]'' in that episode, but apparently not that of Boomer. Was she removed from the count immediately after her assassination attempt? | ||
* | *According to [[Felix Gaeta|Gaeta]], this episode takes place "a week" after Apollo docked at ''[[Cloud 9]]'' in the last episode, although apparently Adama hasn't been well enough to resume command until very recently. | ||
* | *24 ships, almost a third of the Fleet, have left with Roslin for Kobol. | ||
* | **This would mean the total Fleet consists of over 72 ships. In the [[Miniseries]], there are only about 40 FTL-capable ships able to rendezvous with ''Galactica'' at [[Ragnar Anchorage]]. This [[Retroactive continuity|retcon]] is similar to the 500-1500 prisoner error from the Miniseries to "[[Bastille Day]]". | ||
*Boomer's body is now in the morgue. | |||
* | *The concept of women connected to machines for the purposes of controlled reproduction is a venerable one in science fiction; the [[Wikipedia:Dune universe|Dune universe]] showcases a classic example where a specific political and religious faction (the [[Wikipedia:Bene Tleilax|Bene Tleilax]]) uses the technology to produce clones. | ||
* | *Helo and Caprica-Valerii's child is the first Human/Cylon hybrid conceived in love, and as a result appears to be the first and only successful hybrid; it seems that no other embryo survived nearly as long as it already has (it is now about five weeks old, since its conception in "[[Six Degrees of Separation]]"). | ||
*Boomer served aboard ''Galactica'' for two years, which means the Cylons had begun infiltrating Colonial society from at least that long ago. This matches the length of time of Six's affair with Baltar while on Caprica, suggesting that humanoid Cylon infiltration occurred around two years prior to the events of the miniseries. | |||
*According to Simon's study (either from a Cylon dossier on Thrace or from medical exams) Starbuck was the victim of frequent physical abuse as a child; she's suffered many bone fractures in childhood, and all of her fingers have been broken at some point. This is consistent with the comments made by Leoben Conoy to Starbuck during their interrogation scenes ([[Flesh and Bone]]). | |||
*Caprica-Valerii is aware of [[Leoben Conoy]] #2's interrogation by Starbuck in "[[Flesh and Bone]]", even of specific things he said during it, suggesting that humanoid Cylons sometimes have a collective knowledgebase (''not'' a collective consciousness; see "[[Downloaded]]" for this confirmation) to occasionally draw from. This is supported by Boomer's information to [[Gaius Baltar]] of the number of humanoid Cylons remaining in the Fleet in "[[Resistance (episode)|Resistance]]", as only such a knowledgebase would allow Boomer to know of this data. | |||
*This episode introduces the fifth confirmed [[humanoid Cylon]], [[Simon]]. | |||
*According to a deleted scene, this episode takes place a week after "[[Fragged]]". | |||
*After the final commercial break, as Simon enters Starbuck's room (right before she stabs him, it can be seen that her room is number "254". Not so coincidentally, this scene takes place in Season 2, episode #5, and this is the start of Act #4. | |||
*Starbuck has the last line in this episode: "Let's go [[Home, Part I|home]]!" | |||
*Possible goof: Starbuck gets shot below her navel. When she notices the second incision, it's above the gunshot wound, next to the navel. The dressing on the first wound has been removed by then. When Helo checks on the wound at the end, he removes that dressing and then remarks that the gunshot wound looks ok. After that he asks about the second scar. The first wound he checks on, should be the one from the ovary removal, not the gunshot wound. However neither wound and only the upper part of the dressing can actually be seen in the scene. | |||

*In Ron D. Moore's blog entry for October 14, 2005, after finishing the last scripts for season two he jokingly says he has "the reward of time spent thinking about something besides Kara's missing ovaries ("Now, where did I leave those ovaries? They were right here a minute ago...") ". What is meant by this? | *In Ron D. Moore's blog entry for October 14, 2005, after finishing the last scripts for season two he jokingly says he has "the reward of time spent thinking about something besides Kara's missing ovaries ("Now, where did I leave those ovaries? They were right here a minute ago...") ". What is meant by this? | ||
*Love serves as a theme in this episode. First, we find out how important love is for the Cylons: it is considered essential for Cylon procreation. In the first episode, Number Six asked Dr. Baltar several times if he loved her. Number Six also said that "God is love". That was after she tried to conceive from him. Love is also the reason Sharon aids Helo and the reason Helo accepts her help. Also we hear that Starbuck was abused as a child. In the last episode she said that everyone seems to fight to get their old life back and she fights because it's all she knows how to do. In this episode she seems to develop affections to Anders. Will Starbuck find 'reason' in love? Commander Adama tells his subordinates that he loves them. He asks Chief Tyrol if one could love a machine. Ultimately, Commander Adama weeps over Galactica-Sharon's body because he loved her. | |||
*Number Six mentioned that "procreation is one of God's commandments" in the first episode, "[[33]]". This could mean that the Cylons are trying to procreate out of a feeling that they are sinning by not being able to have children on their own. | |||
== | == Questions == | ||
* | *Caprica-Valerii says that she knows that [[Leoben Conoy]] told Kara Thrace she was special during his interrogation aboard ''Galactica''. How could she know this? How do the humanoid Cylons communicate to each other? | ||
*Will we see Simon again? ([[Downloaded|Answer]]) Is he one of the eight humanoid Cylons hiding in the Fleet? | |||
* | *How does Simon know Anders's name? | ||
*What does Kara whisper to Sue-Shaun before she "pulls the plug" on the Farm machinery? | |||
*Why does the Caprica resistance seem more concerned about Thrace's disappearance than Sue-Shaun's? Does Thrace's love interest generate the greater concern? | |||
* | *Would any viable embryos harvested by the Cylons be accelerated into mature adults or placed ''in vitro'' into a host? Would the host be Cylon or human? | ||
