Ray Abinell is a crewman aboard the freighter Greenleaf, husband to Sesha Abinell, and brother to Vinson Abinell.

Abinell is working on ship maintenance when Cylons attack the Fleet. Damage to the Greenleaf ruptures a window, venting Abinell's compartment to space. Abinell is killed when he is blown through the broken window and into space.

In her grief, Abinell's wife begins studying Cylon information, rumor and innuendo. She plans a hostage campaign aboard Cloud 9 to expose what she believes is a Colonial conspiracy to hide its collusion with Cylons, particularly a rumored second copy of Sharon Valerii (TRS: "Sacrifice").

Sesha Abinell is a terrorist living on the freighter Greenleaf who, with the help of fellow conspirators, holds patrons hostage in a lounge aboard Cloud 9.

A portrait of Ray and Sesha Abinell in better times.

Abinell had been widowed approximately 10 weeks earlier as a result of a Cylon attack on the Greenleaf.

In the time since the attack, she composes a manifesto consisting mainly of conspiracy theories regarding Cylon infiltration of the Colonial Fleet, leading to the destruction of the Twelve Colonies. The manifesto is released to Fleet news after she and three men take control of a lounge aboard Cloud 9.

Convinced that the Cylons are still manipulating the military, Abinell demands that Admiral William Adama hand over the copy of Sharon Valerii incarcerated aboard Galactica. Abinell threatens to start killing hostages if Adama does not comply.

To defuse the situation, Adama promises to give Abinell the body of Valerii in exchange for the safety of the hostages. Abinell reluctantly agrees to the terms. The corpse that Adama provides, however, is that of Sharon Valerii, the dead copy of Valerii shot by Cally Henderson months before.

When Adama's deception is discovered, Abinell and her gunmen open fire, fatally wounding Billy Keikeya. Abinell herself is slain by Colonial Marines (TRS: "Sacrifice").

Kern Vinson is a civilian member of the Fleet, brother of Ray Abinell and brother-in-law of Sesha Abinell.

Vinson takes part in Sesha Abinell's hostage taking folly in Cloud Nine's lounge, hoping to get the pregnant copy of Sharon Valerii in exchange for hostages. His actions during the situation indicate that he is Sesha's right hand man.

On the onset of a second rescue attempt, Vinson is slain by Billy Keikeya during his attempt to execute Anastasia Dualla on Abinell's order. He manages to mortally wound Keikeya prior to his death (TRS: "Sacrifice").

Notes[edit]

  • Kern's first name is mentioned by George Chu, and the script confirms that this is Vinson's first name.
  • The fact that he is the brother of Ray Abinell, but with a different last name, indicates that they had separate fathers.
