Hera runs away from her parents when [[Karl Agathon]] is shot in the leg, and [[Sharon Agathon]] abandons him to go after her. At the same time, Roslin leaves her post at the sickbay when she begins to have the Opera House dream again. Eventually, just as the vision showed, [[Caprica-Six]] and [[Gaius Baltar|Baltar]] find Hera and take her into what they perceive as the Opera House, which is, in actuality, ''Galactica''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> [[CIC]]. The Final Five cylons stand above them on one of the higher levels, looking down upon Baltar and Caprica Six, just as the vision foretold. ([[Daybreak, Part II]]) | ||
