* [[Caprica-Six]] does not seem surprised that [[Gaius Baltar]] is having dreams about her. She even tells him to "get used to it". As Six's response is unusual, the insinuation here is that these dreams lead to the creation of [[Virtual Six]]. The comic also infers that the surgical procedure done by [[Simon]] has something to do with it, and is referred to visually in the panel where Baltar rubs the back of his head after a dream where Six asks him if Baltar's alive while snapping his neck, which reveals a bandage. To date, the series itself has been careful to leave Virtual Six's existence unexplained and open to various interpretations, ranging from the spiritual to the technical. | * [[Caprica-Six]] does not seem surprised that [[Gaius Baltar]] is having dreams about her.
