	Upon successfully boarding the basestar, the rescue team locates the room where the science team is being held and works to free them. The rescue party is ambushed by [[Cylon Centurion Model 0005\|Centurions]], and [[Dasilva]] is critically wounded. As two Centurions drag him away, Major [[Kendra Shaw]] shoots and kills him, believing that he would have been used by the Cylons for experimentation. Shaw is subsequently shot in the abdomen by one of the Centurions.		Upon successfully boarding the basestar, the rescue team locates the room where the science team is being held and works to free them. The rescue party is ambushed by [[Cylon Centurion Model 0005\|Centurions]], and [[Dasilva]] is critically wounded. As two Centurions drag him away, Major [[Kendra Shaw]] shoots and kills him, believing that he would have been used by the Cylons for experimentation. Shaw is subsequently shot in the abdomen by one of the Centurions.

	The basestar begins jamming [[wireless]] communications, and not knowing if his boarding party is still alive, Commander Adama orders a [[Missile tubes\|nuclear missile]] to be fired at the ship, but Admiral Adama countermands him. As the men attempt to determine a decisive plan of action, communications are restored, and Captain ~~[[Kara Thrace]]~~ reveals that the warhead's remote detonator was damaged in the firefight with the Centurions. The only way to set the warhead off is to do it manually. Commander Adama suggests evacuating the rescue team and then launching the missile, but the admiral points out that the Raiders will destroy anything they fire at the basestar - ultimately, a member of the rescue team will need to stay back and detonate the warhead. Reluctantly, the commander orders Captain Thrace to fulfill this role, and she complies.

	''Pegasus'' immediately launches a second Raptor, getting it close enough to the basestar to land within a hangar bay and to evacuate the rescue team. Thrace is ready to stay behind when Major Shaw orders her to leave at gunpoint, intending to detonate the warhead instead. The two argue, but Thrace eventually concedes, boards the Raptor, and returns to ''Pegasus'' with the others.

	When a [[Raptor]] with a civilian science team goes missing, Admiral [[William Adama]] orders a [[SAR\|search and rescue]] mission - [[Lee Adama]]'s first mission as commander of ''Pegasus''. After jumping to the Raptor's last known location, a Viper patrol encounters Cylon [[Raider (RDM)#Cylon War-era Raider\|fighters]] of an unknown configuration. ''Pegasus'' fights off the attack and eventually jumps out again, but not before a Raider is shot down in one of the [[landing bay]]s. The wreck is discovered to be a Cylon War-era Raider crewed by [[Cylon Centurion Model 0005\|Centurions]] from that time, its navigational records pointing to the possible location of their home base.

	Remembering Cylon [[Razor Flashbacks\|experimentation on humans]] during the first [[Cylon War]], Admiral Adama transfers his flag to ''Pegasus'', hoping to rescue the missing people and maybe learn what exactly he witnessed over forty years ago. Not wanting to risk both battlestars, ''Pegasus'' is dispatched alone.

The two argue, but Thrace eventually concedes, boards the Raptor, and returns to ''Pegasus'' with the others.

	With blood streaming from her open wound, a delirious Shaw descends deeper into the basestar, eventually coming across the [[First Hybrid\|Hybrid]]'s chamber. The Hybrid knows she wants redemption for her [[Scylla\|past actions]] and tells her to come closer, as he has something he needs to tell her. He explains to her that Thrace will [[The Destiny#The Warning from the First Hybrid\|lead mankind to its end]], and that they must not follow her. Shaw attempts to contact ''Pegasus'' and warn them, but cannot deliver the entire message due to Cylon jamming. As Shaw prepares to destroy the ship, the Hybrid calmly addresses that "all this has happened before, and will happen again" repeating "again...again" over and over. Shaw detonates the nuke, destroying the Guardian basestar, along with herself, the Hybrid, and the entire Centurion crew ~~([[~~TRS~~]]: "[[~~Razor~~]]")~~.
