| '''Phelan''' is the head of [[The Fleet (TRS)|the Fleet]]'s [[black market (organization)|black market]] in {{ACH|1}}, having been an "ex-military mercenary" prior to the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]].
| |
|
| |
|
| Phelan's father was formerly a member of the [[Colonial Fleet (TRS)|Colonial Fleet]], and his fate is unknown. | | '''Phelan''' is the head of the [[black market (organization)|black market]] operating within [[The Fleet (RDM)|The Fleet]]. |
|
| |
|
| == Black Marketeer ==
| | His father was a member of the [[Colonial Defense Force]], and is presumed dead, killed during the initial [[Cylon]] [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|attack]]. Phelan himself is an "ex-military mercenary". |
| Phelan's black market operates from ''[[Prometheus (ship)|Prometheus]]'' and rises to prominence when ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' commander [[Jack Fisk]] is murdered, after Fisk attempts to renegotiate his fee for allowing the market to work using ''Pegasus''' resources.
| |
|
| |
|
| Captain {{callsign|Lee Adama}} is tasked with investigating Fisk's murder, and later meets with Phelan aboard ''Prometheus'' in an attempt to rescue [[Shevon]] and her daughter, [[Paya]]; Phelan having abducted them after he discovers Adama's unique connection to the civilians.
| | Phelan has no issues with shady and immoral practices such as child prostitution. He claims "it's hard to find the moral high ground when we're all standing in the mud." |
|
| |
|
| Phelan makes a significant point to Adama that the black market is a necessary evil, despite President [[Laura Roslin]]'s objections. The black market provides a supply alternative for citizens in the Fleet when official methods become bogged down due to delays or when supplies run short.
| | He is shot and killed by [[Lee Adama]] aboard the ''[[Prometheus]]'' ([[Black Market]]). Misjudging Apollo's character, he is confident that Apollo won't shoot him saying 'I am not like my old man, and you are not like yours'. |

|
| == "You're Not Like Me." ==
| | {{Characters}} |
| Phelan has no issues with shady and immoral practices such as child prostitution. He claims "it's hard to find the moral high ground when we're all standing in the mud." When Adama tries to deal with Phelan for Shevon and her daughter, Paya, Phelan says that the child was "already paid for," indicating the young girl was to be part of his child prostitution ring.
| |
|
| |
|
| Adama realizes that, while the black market is necessary, Phelan's use of children, among other things, crosses the line. Realizing that he can't stop the black market but can change its methods, Adama shoots and kills Phelan, who gravely underestimates not only Adama's [[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II#Official_Statements|sense of justice]] but his [[Resurrection Ship, Part II|current state of depression]]. Phelan's last words are, "You're not gonna shoot. You're not like me." {{TRS|Black Market}}

| == Notes ==
| |
| | |
| * It is uncertain who replaces Phelan in the vacuum left by Lee Adama, but it is indicated that [[Tom Zarek]] has some level involvement with the black market. Such direct clarity of command becomes murkier leading into and following the [[Second Exodus]].
