	* Now trapped in the [[memory inducer]], Adama relives an experience he had while serving under Commander [[Raynon]], the former commander of ''~~[[Galactica (~~TOS)\|Galactica]]''. Accompanied by Lieutenant Tigh, Captain Adama are in a [[hovercar]] riding through a metropolis on [[Scorpia (alternate)\|Scorpia]]. Adama notes his disgust of the Scorpians, but promises Tigh that he won't jeopardize the mission despite his beliefs. As they pass by a skywalk, they see that it buckles, resulting in groups of people needing help. The spectating Scorpians call for the rescue robots, but remain otherwise unwilling to help them directly, while Adama instructs the hovercar's pilot drone to move them to the skywalk. Much to his irritation, the drone refuses to do so, since it is contrary to its instructions.		* Now trapped in the [[memory inducer]], Adama relives an experience he had while serving under Commander [[Raynon]], the former commander of ''{{TOS\|Galactica}}''.

	* The rescue robots arrive, saving all but two of the people trapped on the skywalk while accelerating the collapse. Fearing that the air drones would not reach in time, Adama orders Tigh to take command of the hovercar; Tigh blows off the pilot drone's "head" and Adama jumps out of the hovecar. He manages to swing both the mother and her child upon a nearby roof, where rescue drones catch them. Unable to hold on, Adama falls but lands safely in the hovercar, now under Tigh's control, and they are escorted to the Scorpian embassy.		* The rescue robots arrive, saving all but two of the people trapped on the skywalk while accelerating the collapse.

She rebukes this, saying that she will travel in a diplomatic shuttle as is according to her station, noting that she has accepted the fact that two humans have been sent to protect her, and that is about the only concession she will make due to their prejudices.		* Adama and Tigh are brought before Scorpia's ambassador to the [[Quorum of Twelve (TOS)\|Council of Twelve]], a figure in a hooded fuchsia robe.

	* [[Caprica (TOS alternate)\|Caprica]]'s ban on advanced robotic technology is due to a philosophical belief that there is no substitute for human effort. In the series itself, [[Apollo (TOS)\|Apollo]] tells ~~[[Boxey (~~TOS)\|Boxey]] that their [[drone]]s are built with limited intelligence to prevent the Colonials from being attacked by their own robotic constructs, much like the [[Cylons (TOS)\|Cylons]] were over a thousand [[yahren]]s ago. However, despite this, the Colonials evidently pursued [[bio-robotics institutes\|bio-robotic technologies]] that could look and act very much human. Further, in the [[Re-imagined Series]], the rise of such technology was banned after the [[Cylon War]] due to the effects of that devastating rebellion.		* [[Caprica (TOS alternate)\|Caprica]]'s ban on advanced robotic technology is due to a philosophical belief that there is no substitute for human effort.

			* The natives of [[Scopria (alternate)\|Scopria]] are heavily reliant on their own technology, and are basically placated through pampering. Their natural human drives, such as heroism, have been effectively suppressed, as exemplified by the skywalk disaster.
