Editing Caprica Resistance

:''This page covers the resistance movement on Caprica. For other meanings of the word "Resistance", see [[Resistance]].''

The '''Caprica Resistance''' is a loose organization of survivors of the [[Cylon holocaust]] on Caprica working to actively oppose the occupying [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] forces. 

[[Kara Thrace|Kara "Starbuck" Thrace]] and [[Karl Agathon|Karl "Helo" Agathon]] encounter the Caprica resistance, who initially believe the two are [[humanoid Cylon]]s before Thrace and Agathon manage to convince them otherwise.

The resistance cell that Agathon and Thrace encounter is led by [[Samuel Anders]], a former professional [[Pyramid (RDM)|Pyramid]] player. Anders and several other members of his team, the [[Caprica Buccaneers]], were in the high mountains well outside the city at the time of the Cylon attack. After the initial attack they formed a resistance movement centered around their pyramid team, supplemented by hikers and other survivalists who had remained alive in the mountains when the Cylons hit. They have survived by raiding old [[Colonial Fleet (RDM)|military]] stores for munitions and other supplies, including [[anti-radiation medication]]. They conduct guerrilla attacks against the Cylons in an attempt to keep the enemy forces off balance and, hopefully, to force them to leave their colony.

The resistance, numbering 53 people when Thrace arrives at the base, is located at [[Delphi Union High School]] just outside the city of [[Delphi]] ([[Resistance (episode)|Resistance]]).

The resistance leads an assault against a Cylon-operated [[Farms|farm]] where Kara Thrace and [[Sue-Shaun]] are incarcerated. Thrace escapes on her own power, but finds Sue-Shaun already connected to the Cylon devices intended to harvest her ovums or impregnate her. Thrace mercy-kills Sue-Shaun on her request.

As Thrace leaves the building, she encounters another copy of [[Number Four|Simon]], having killed a copy moments before. The resistance team eliminate this copy quickly, but are soon pinned down by [[Cylon Centurion|Centurion]] gunfire before renegade Cylon [[Sharon Agathon|"Caprica Valerii"]] obliterates the Cylons from a stolen [[Heavy Raider]] and evacuates the humans from the area.

Anders hides Kara Thrace's [[Arrow of Apollo]] on the high school grounds and returns it to her before she, Valerii, and Agathon escape the planet and return to [[Laura Roslin]] and her [[Laura Roslin faction|faction]] above [[Kobol (RDM)|Kobol]] ([[The Farm]]).

A copy of [[Number One|Cavil]] infiltrated the resistance ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]], [[No Exit]]) but was executed by being blown out ''Galactica's'' airlock with another copy of himself when his true nature was discovered.

The resistance finds its numbers heavily weakened after a Cylon attack, months after Thrace leaves their party. Fortunately, a massive [[SAR|Search-and-Rescue]] effort, led by Thrace, returns to find Anders and the remnants of his team. After the group's ambush by Cylon forces (who have left for good, according to the copy of Cavil), Anders' resistance team boards the SAR [[Raptor]]s and leave Caprica for the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]).

==Notes==

* The leader of the resistance movement, Samuel Anders, is later revealed to be one of the [[Final Five|Final Five Cylons]].  He dies in the final episode when he flies ''Galactica'' and her fleet into the Sun of the new Earth.

Unknown to the resistance, his time among them caused him to change his perspective and mind about humanity, coming to believe that what the Cylons did was wrong.  As a result of this, he was presumably boxed once he resurrected {{TRS|Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II|No Exit|The Plan}}.

-The resistance is also unaware that their doctor, [[Number Four|Simon]], is a Cylon agent until they rescue Thrace from a Cylon Farm.  The resistance members kill a Simon outside the farm and seeing his corpse causes them to realize that their doctor is a Cylon and [[Jean Barolay]] is sent back to execute him.  A [[deleted scene]] reveals that the Simon was killed, but not before he contaminated their anti-radiation meds {{TRS|The Plan}}.
