	This idea of the Cylon projections was- as we were talking about life on the baseship early on, I started thinking about, ok, what are we gonna do? We're gonna be on these sets. I don't know if these sets are gonna work, in terms of what the audience expectation is, and I needed something else. If they're just these walls and these boring lights, isn't the audience just going to be always disappointed about what the Cylon life is like. And thought, "Well maybe... they are machines after all. They can do pretty much whatever they want. And if they choose to envision their surroundings as a forest, maybe they have that ability." Now, see, this is where the original, the beach sequence used to live here in its entirety. He was in the middle of that scene with Number Six, on the baseship, and then in his mind he went to what we call [[Cylon-Related Hallucinations#Baltar.27s Internal Six\|"Head Six"]], the imaginary Six in his head, and the whole beach scene played out here. And what I did is I took the first half of that scene, cut it, moved it to the top of the teaser, and then looped in different dialogue to have a completely different conversation.

	RDM: It's a good question. I fudged it. I went around it completely. You'll see that there's- we- actually, I forgot we- I used to have an extension of that piece where as he walked- followed her down the corridor I dissolved over a piece of them walking in the forest and they turned left down the corridor but in the forest shot they actually kept going straight. And it was a discontinuity, but I- in my mind I justified it by saying that the Cylons are much smarter than we are and yes they choose to look at their environment as a forest, but they also know where they really are and they have a feeling of what the objects are in the room or in the hallway, and they're never going to run into- they're never gonna run into a real object and they know intuitively that all the objects in their projection aren't really there, so they would walk right through a rock.

	Student: And what is that tube machinery thing?		Student: And what is that tube machinery thing?

	RDM: Yeah. See, the tube is supposed to be a beacon that they found. The plot is that these Cylons went to a place that Baltar told them to go. 'Cause he kinda knows the- had a theory of how to get to Earth. And the humans on ''Galactica'' are following the same path. So Baltar sends a baseship to these coordinates. The baseship gets there and it, lo and behold, it finds a device. A floating beacon left behind by the [[Thirteenth Tribe]]. Those Cylons pull that beacon onto their ship and an infection spreads through the Cylon baseship. Just something that was physically on the beacon, some bacteria or something that survived. And it proved deadly to everybody on the Cylon baseship. And then the Cylons ultimately blame him for that. It doesn't quite come through in the show. It's very confusing and part of the problem is that a lot of it has to be explained in this scene. And it's hard to understand. Ofttimes, particularly the cut you guys are watching, what each of them is saying, which will be cleaned up by the time it's on the air, you'll hear much more distinctly what their voices are saying, one would hope. And- but it's still a very confusing backstory. It's not our finest moment in terms of being able to lay out exposition and what's really going on in this scene.		RDM: Yeah.

Student: [[Cylons (RDM)\|Cylons]] are aware of the fact that they were created by humans. How do they- what sort of [[Cylon Religion\|religious creation myths]] do they allow themselves?

And now the Cylons are supposed to take the place of the flawed humans in the cosmos and essentially are the next generation. When I was- in the [[miniseries]], I talked a lot about how the Cylons saw themselves as mankind's children and that there was a line somewhere that, essentially, "Children can't become really, truly adults until their parents are dead." And so the Cylons had to kill their parents in order to evolve and mature. And that was their philosophical world view. But they felt that they were- God is love, and that they were in the service of a loving, compassionate God that offered redemption and so on.

That was the the ar- yeah, and we talked about. This was overt. It was- he was overtly Pinocchio. He wanted to be human. He wanted to be like humans. He didn't under- but he didn't understand emotion. And he didn't understand what it is to laugh and to cry and that was what the character was all about. And we said, "Well the [[Cylons (RDM)\|Cylons]] understand all that. They understand human emotions. They understand everything it is about to be human. They just don't like us. They think that we're really flawed. They think that we're screwed up people and that we don't deserve to live and that they're better." But they do have small crevices in that philosophy. They don't know what it is to truly love. They struggle towards wanting to love and be loved and they want to have children. One of the driving forces that we discovered about the Cylons in [[Season 1 (2004-05)\|season one]] is that they cannot biologically reproduce. They can create copies of their bodies. Over, and over, and over again. They can create mult- hundreds and hundred of copies of each Cylon body and download from one to the other. But they could not biologically create a child. And that this created a problem for them because they believe that one of [[God]]'s commandments was to go forth an multiply, to procreate. And they didn't believe they could be people, on some level, unless they had children. So there's a whole complicated plot involved with them trying to- they had tried and struggled to create children in labs and find ways to technically do it and it kept failing, and failing, and failing until they stumbled on a plot where this man, [[Karl Agathon\|Helo]], who is a human, they concocted a scenario where he fell in love with [[Sharon Agathon\|Sharon]], one of the other models, and they fell in love and had [[Hera\|a child]] and that was- and the Cylons drew from this, or they had the theory going into it that maybe the thing that was missing was God's love. And that if- two people needed to truly love each other in order to create a child in [[Cylon Religion\|their mythology]]. And then it worked. And so that's one of the areas where the metaphysical, supernatural elements of the show intrude into the reality of it. Because we all know, biologically, that's not really how these things work. (Chuckles.) You don't truly have to love people to have children. This had been proven.

	RDM: I thi- what we're still playing is that Athena/Sharon is not accepted by everybody. Like, Tigh clearly does not accept her. Adama has made a decision and put her back in uniform and given her his trust and there's this grudging acceptance of, well [[the Old Man]] did it so we have to live with it. And she had also justified his faith in her by the events of the first couple episodes where she had helped save all their lives, so there is that. But I wanted- we continue to play throughout the season that that's not a uniform opinion. That there's still a good chunk of people that don't trust her, don't like her, question Adama's decision to do it and it- we- I felt like I had to bring her back into uniform and put her back into the mix because I didn't want her to just become [[w:Hannibal Lecter\|Hannibal Lecter]] and be in the cell all the time. And I just felt like that was gonna run its course and be boring after a certain time and that the fun of having her was puttin' her in the uniform and see what problems it causes in the show.
