Capricans[edit]

Security Guard[edit]

"I'm sorry. I'm going to have to see in that bag."

While members (Hippolyta, Pann, and Lacy Rand) of a Soldiers of the One cell led by Barnabas Greeley attempt to bomb Caprica Interplanetary Spaceport, Lacy is caught by a security guard. While she tries telling the guard that her temple group missed her flight to Picon, the guard attempts to search Lacy's backpack containing an explosive. Pann shoots him before he gets the chance. (CAP: "Retribution")

The role credited as "Security Guard" was played by Garvin Cross.


Grace Commercial[edit]

In Cyrus Xander's commercial for Grace, a family of three grieves over the loss of a Caprican soldier and father (TRS: "False Labor").

Military Father[edit]

Military photo of the officer in dress uniform regalia, as seen in the casket-side funeral photo (CAP: "False Labor").

Initially depicted in a funeral photo with Captain's rank insignia and elite flight wings in a dress uniform, a holographic avatar of the father returns to the family in an emotional celebration during the funeral (CAP: "False Labor").

The role credited as "Military Father" was played by Christopher Rogan.

Note[edit]

Given the use of an avatar for Daniel Graystone in the commercial, it is unknown if the unnamed "military father" and the other characters were also avatars.


Mother[edit]

Unnamed mother, possibly a holographic avatar herself, in the Grace commercial circa 58 BCH (42YR) (TRS: "False Labor").

A widow and her two children Johnny and Tessa grieve the loss of the father of the family (CAP: "False Labor")

The role credited as "Mother" was played by Tanya Hubbard.

Note[edit]

Given the use of an avatar for Daniel Graystone in the commercial, it is unknown if the unnamed mother and the other characters were also avatars.
