Claiming that no one believed him, McKintosh wagers a data chip worn around his neck to Starbuck as a taunt, believing the newly minted Warrior didn't have a winning hand. Starbuck's full pyramid secured McKintosh's data chip with the alleged data, only for Starbuck to later discover that the chip was unreadable (''[[Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck 1]]'').

It isn't until [[Yahren|yahrens]] later in [[7346]] that, following the loss of [[Starbuck's foster parents]] in a Cylon sneak attack on [[Scorpia]], McKintosh's data becomes a point of interest. A series of events unfolds following [[Boomer (TOS alternate)|Boomer]]'s decryption of McKintosh's Umbra data (at Starbuck's renewed behest), which leads to McKintosh's death by Cylon hands aboard his own vessel.

Before his death, McKintosh records a holographic message relaying his story and key revelations that were not told before: he worked for [[Osiris (TOS)|Osiris]] and that he had an extra copy of the recording that not only captured the data on the attack in [[7322]], but also recorded the use of Osiris's own codes that were used to lower the defense net. Apollo recovers the disk hidden by McKintosh and transmits it to ''[[Galactica (TOS alternate)|Galactica]]'' (''[[Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck 3]]'').

Per McKintosh's wishes, Starbuck avenges him by presenting this new data to the [[Quorum of Twelve (TOS)|Quorum of Twelve]] and subsequently killing Osiris while defending President [[Adar (TOS alternate)|Adar]]'s life (''[[Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck 4]]'').
