'''Giana O'Neill''' is | '''Giana O'Neill''' is a young woman who, after winning a [[Caprican refugees|lottery drawing]], is rescued from [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]] by [[Sharon Valerii]] and [[Karl Agathon]]. ([[Miniseries]]) | ||
Her husband served as a medic in the Colonial Fleet near [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Gemenon|Gemenon]] and was presumed dead ([[Miniseries]]). She has a daughter, Jemmy, from a previous marriage. | |||
O'Neill enlists in the Colonial Fleet and becomes a mechanic on ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'', putting her civilian experience as an aeronautical engineer to use. She bonds with Chief [[Tyrol]], and immediately picks up on his relationship with [[Sharon Valerii]], stating she knows an "office romance" when she sees one. She is reunited with her husband and daughter, who managed to get off Gemenon aboard the container ship ''[[Cybele]]''. | |||
Unbeknown to her, her husband Simon is actually a [[Number Four]] model Cylon. He later commits suicide when he is ordered to blow up ''Cybele'' by Brother [[John Cavil]], choosing to die rather than hurt the ones he loved and believing his love for his wife Giana would outlast his death. O'Neill is questioned regarding the incident by Colonel [[Saul Tigh|Tigh]]. During the questioning she brings up and then denies the possibility that Simon was a Cylon. Tigh assures her that no one thought he was and conveys his sympathies for her loss. After later learning from [[Kara Thrace]] that Simon was indeed a Cylon, Giana discusses the matter with Tyrol. She claims Simon's suicide was heroic, and she'd also kill herself if she suspected she were a Cylon too ([[The Plan]]). This later prompts Tyrol to ponder and attempt suicide himself ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part I]]). | |||
