'''''Sagittarius Is Bleeding''''' by [/Peter_David Peter David] (published by [http://www.tor.com/ Tor Books]), is an original novel based on the [/Battlestar_Galactica_(RDM) Re-imagined Series].

==Summary<mw:editsection page="Boxey (disambiguation)" section="2">Summary</mw:editsection>==
<span></span>
==Book Notes<mw:editsection page="Boxey (disambiguation)" section="3">Book Notes</mw:editsection>==
<span></span>
*This novel takes place between the [/Season_2_(2005-06) Season 2] episodes "[/Black_Market Black Market]" and "[/Scar Scar]".
<span></span>
*[/Cally Cally]'s full name is given as "Callista Henderson".<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference">[[#cite_note-11|<span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket"><nowiki>]</nowiki></span>]]</sup>
**This contradicts the [/Miniseries Miniseries] [/Battlestar_Galactica_(2005_Novel) novelization] (in which she is named as Jane Cally), as well as her funeral in the episode "[/Escape_Velocity Escape Velocity]," which gives her full name as Callandra Henderson.
<span></span>
*[/Boxey_(RDM) Boxey]'s real name is given as "<span id="Andrew_Boxman">Andrew Boxman</span>," but it is later contradicted by the name "<span id="Alex_Boxman">Alex Boxman</span>".
**His [/Armistice_Officer father]'s name is given as [/Colonel_Wakefield Wakefield] in the Miniseries novelization.
<span></span>
*It is revealed that [/D%27Anna_Biers D'Anna Biers] inserted a listening device into Lt. [/Felix_Gaeta Gaeta]’s hand while making her documentary which leads to a near-fatal ambush at the beginning of the book. It is later found by Colonel [/Saul_Tigh Tigh] and removed.
<span></span>
*The current number of Sagittaron survivors is given as 5,251.  This number would have to be modified to 5,248 following the deaths of three Midguardians.
**This figure is unchanged from the number given in "[/33 33]".
<span></span>
*It is noted that [/Caprica-Six Caprica-Six] never told Dr. Baltar either her name or alias.
**This also contradicts the novelization of the miniseries, where she was referred to as "Natasi" before revealing her true nature.

'''Boxey''' is the son of the [/Armistice_Officer Armistice Officer] at [/Armistice_Station Armistice Station].
Following the [/Cylon_attack Cylon attack], Boxey and his aunt<sup>''<nowiki>{{#parsoid\0fragment:1}}</nowiki>[/Battlestar_Wiki:Citation_Jihad citation needed]<nowiki>{{#parsoid\0fragment:2}}</nowiki>''</sup> seek sanctuary when a [/Raptor Raptor] manned by Lieutenants [/Sharon_Valerii_(Galactica_copy) Valerii] and [/Karl_Agathon Agathon] makes an emergency landing on [/Caprica_(RDM) Caprica].
When it becomes evident that the Raptor cannot rescue all the terrified refugees who come to it, Boxey's aunt gives him up with other children for transport back to ''[/Galactica_(RDM) Galactica]''. The child becomes unofficially adopted by members of the crew and is also seen eating with Valerii and other pilots on ''Galactica'' <sup>([/Re-imagined_Series TRS]: "[/Miniseries Miniseries]")</sup>.
Later, Boxey is following [/Kara_%22Starbuck%22_Thrace Kara "Starbuck" Thrace] around and copying her attitude and tone with [/Saul_Tigh Saul Tigh]. During an exchange with Tigh, Boxey sarcastically reveals that his mother is dead <sup>([/Re-imagined_Series TRS]: "[/Bastille_Day Bastille Day]")</sup>.
==Life on the cutting room floor<mw:editsection page="Boxey (disambiguation)" section="1">Life on the cutting room floor</mw:editsection>==
Otherwise, the character is mostly found in [/List_of_Deleted_Scenes_(RDM) deleted scenes] and on the cutting room floor, with little further exposure. Boxey appears in [/List_of_Deleted_Scenes_(RDM)#Water five deleted scenes] included with the [/Season_1_DVD Season 1 DVD] set.  The first four are from "[/Water Water]":
*In the first, Boxey happens upon Boomer at her locker, and rummaging through it finds a rag which she used to wipe rust off of her hands from when she was planting the bombs in the water tanks.
*In the second (after the discovery of water by Boomer), Boxey and [/Galen_Tyrol Tyrol] pay a visit to Boomer in her quarters to congratulate her. Boxey is [/Frak frakkin] explicit, while Tyrol slaps him on the head to rebuke him and asks him to leave the room so he can take a moment with Boomer.
*In his third deleted scene in "Water," Boxey tries to sell some [/Ambrosia ambrosia] he got from an engineer to [/Alex_Quartararo Crashdown] (apparently one of the attempts to turn him into the "artful dodger" mentioned by the writers).
*The subplot of the second scene is followed up on in a fourth scene at the end of the episode where Tyrol finds Boxey with the rag, who tells him that he got it from Boomer's locker, and Tyrol recognizes the rust as being the same residue as he found in the water tank, raising his suspicions about Boomer (this entire subplot was dropped).
*Boxey's [/List_of_Deleted_Scenes_(RDM)#Kobol's_Last_Gleaming,_Part_I fifth deleted scene] in the set is from "[/Kobol%27s_Last_Gleaming,_Part_I Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I]," in which Boomer is practicing drawing her weapon from its holster and pointing it, and after several times Boxey steps into the room just as she wheels around and points her gun in his direction, accidentally scaring him off.
==Behind the Scenes<mw:editsection page="Boxey (disambiguation)" section="2">Behind the Scenes</mw:editsection>==
Creator [/Ronald_D._Moore Ronald D. Moore] included Boxey in the Re-imagined Series as a [/Boxey_(TOS) nod to the original], but never intended for the character to have a central role. "While I thought Boxey was part of the family and decided it would be nice to include him in some peripheral way, I never considered keeping Boxey's dog for a second," Moore stated, referring to the original's [/Daggit Daggit], [/Muffit_II Muffit]. "The dog was just absurd!"<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference">[[#cite_note-12|<span class="cite-bracket">[</span>Book 1<span class="cite-bracket"><nowiki>]</nowiki></span>]]</sup>
The writers reconceived Boxey as a mischievous, "[[w:Artful_Dodger|Artful Dodger]]-type character."<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference">[[#cite_note-13|<span class="cite-bracket">[</span>Book 2<span class="cite-bracket"><nowiki>]</nowiki></span>]]</sup> However, as the series progressed, particularly with the storyline revealing [/Sharon_%22Boomer%22_Valerii Sharon "Boomer" Valerii] as [/Humanoid_Cylon a Cylon], the writers found it increasingly difficult to fit him into the narrative, and the character was eventually dropped.

*Boxey is based on a [/Boxey_(TOS) character of the same name] from the [/Battlestar_Galactica_(TOS) Original Series]. He shares some similarities with his TOS counterpart, in that he is a young boy orphaned by the [/Cylon_attack Cylon attack] who is adopted by members of ''Galactica''<nowiki>{{#parsoid\0fragment:3}}</nowiki>s crew. While Boxey was an often recurring character in the Original Series and the [/Troy_(1980) main character] of the follow up series ''[/Galactica_1980 Galactica 1980]'', in the Re-imagined Series he only appears in one episode of the first season, "[/Bastille_Day Bastille Day]". A number of other appearances were filmed, but cut from other episodes due to time considerations. By the start of Season 2, the writers realized they had never really used him and couldn't think of a way to fit him into the series, and the character has been essentially abandoned.
*In the original draft of the Miniseries, Boxey would form a family unit with [/Sharon_Valerii Sharon Valerii] and [/Galen_Tyrol Galen Tyrol], but it was then decided that Boomer would be a Cylon sleeper agent. The writers then toyed around with the idea of still having the three of them be a family unit (with Boomer completely unsuspecting that she was a Cylon) until the Season 1 finale, when Boomer would reveal herself. Instead, starting with the second episode, "[/Water Water]," Boomer early on starts suspecting that she is a Cylon, and the writers found fewer and fewer ways for Boxey to fit in. An idea toyed around with was that Boxey would become the "artful dodger" on the show; running the [/Black_market_(organization) black market], stealing things, etc., but it was decided that there wasn't even time for that.
*One of the problems with having a young character such as Boxey on the show is that while the actor naturally ages, the Re-imagined Series has progressed much more slowly; the series covers approximately [/Timeline_(RDM) one and a half years] in fictional time from the Miniseries (2003) to the end of Season 2 (2006).
*In the non-canonical novel ''[/Sagittarius_Is_Bleeding Sagittarius Is Bleeding]'', Boxey's name is given as "[/Andrew_Boxman Andrew Boxman]" (or "Alex Boxman"). He is briefly suspected as a Cylon after talking with [/Sharon_%22Athena%22_Agathon Sharon "Athena" Agathon] against orders and helps to thwart a terrorist plot. His continuing absence in the main series is explained as Boxey living on another ship but being allowed to visit the pilots on ''Galactica''.
