Doctor '''Philomon''' is a technician from the town of [[Qualai]] on Caprica who works for [[Graystone Industries]]. He is fascinated by the [[U-87]], correctly ascribing a female aspect to the robot, and treating it with more courtesy, kindness, and compassion than his fellow technicians—notably [[Drew]] ([[CAP]]: "[[Rebirth]]"). | |||
Zoe-R develops feelings for Philomon and, in the guise of "Rachel", made a date with him in the V-World via a dating program called V-Match ([[CAP]]: "[[Know Thy Enemy]]"). | |||
After Philomon is directed to erase the [[MCP]] and, with it, Zoe-R, Zoe-R confesses to Philomon that she is in fact Rachel, and asks him to help her become free. Philomon agrees, but then triggers a security breach alarm. Enraged, Zoe-R backhands him, sending him into a support beam, killing him instantly ([[CAP]]: "[[End of Line]]"). | |||
