Did the Cavil killed by D'Anna resurrect?

Is the resurrection process that quick? And where did he resurrect? Was this ever shown anywhere? From what D'Anna said before she snapped his neck, she sounds like the imminent destruction of the hub would preclude that particular Cavil from ever coming back.-- Fredmdbud 03:32, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

The Cavils have never demonstrated the level of individuality of the Sixes, or even the Eights and Threes. Since they are portrayed as more or less completely interchangeable, as well as in some form of constant communication between copies (as in Occupation/Precipice), I'm not sure there's any point in attempting to follow the fates of individual copies. --Peter Farago 19:20, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
