The '''Skirmish at the Farm''' was | The '''Skirmish at the Farm''' was a skirmish between the [[Caprica Resistance]] aided by Lieutenants [[Kara Thrace]] and [[Karl Agathon]] as well as a [[Cylon (TRS)|Cylon]] defector later named [[Sharon Agathon]] against Cylon forces at a Cylon breeding farm. | ||
==Background== | ==Background== | ||
After being sent to | After being sent to [[Caprica]] by President [[Laura Roslin]] to get the [[Arrow of Apollo]], Lieutenant [[Kara Thrace|Kara "Starbuck" Thrace]] met up with long-missing Lieutenant [[Karl Agathon|Karl "Helo" Agathon]] and his girlfriend, [[Sharon Agathon|a copy]] of Kara's friend [[Sharon Valerii|Boomer]]. When Thrace repeatedly threatened to kill her, Caprica-Valerii fled in Thrace's stolen [[Cylon (TRS)|Cylon]] [[Raider (RDM)|Raider]], leaving Thrace and Agathon stranded on Caprica. Sometime afterwards, the two met up with the [[Caprica Resistance]] and as they were planning an assault to steal a [[Heavy Raider]], the group was ambushed and Thrace and [[Sue-Shaun]] were captured by Cylon forces and taken to a breeding farm. While Sue-Shaun was hooked up a "baby machine" along with other women, Thrace was experimented on directly by a [[Number Four]] by the name of Simon under the guise of treating her injuries from the ambush. During this time, at least one of her ovaries were removed. However, the Number Four accidentally broke his cover to the suspicious Thrace by calling her by her call-sign of Starbuck which she hadn't told him. After seeing him discussing his plan to remove her ovaries completely with a [[Number Six]], Thrace realized that Simon was actually a Cylon agent and she had to escape. | ||
At the same time, the Caprica Resistance returned to the ambush point to look for clues to Thrace's location. Caprica-Valerii, who had been tracking Agathon for days, appeared and offered her help to rescue Thrace. With the help of Valerii, the Caprica Resistance stole a Heavy Raider and launched a rescue mission for Thrace ([[TRS]]: "[[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I]]," "[[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II]]," "[[Scattered]]," "[[Resistance]], | At the same time, the Caprica Resistance returned to the ambush point to look for clues to Thrace's location.

Needing to escape, Thrace | Needing to escape, Lieutenant [[Kara Thrace]] broke a bedside mirror and waited for [[Number Four|Simon]] to return. When he did, she revealed her suspicions to him and then proceeded to kill the [[Cylon (TRS)|Cylon]] by stabbing him in the neck with the mirror shard. Sneaking her way through the facility, Thrace spots a [[Number Six]] and kills her by smashing her head in with a fire extinguisher. To Thrace's horror, she finds [[Caprica Resistance]] member [[Sue-Shaun]] and other women hooked up to "baby machines." Not wanting to live like this and unable to be unhooked without being killed, Sue-Shaun asks Thrace to destroy the machines and mercy-kill the women. Thrace reluctantly smashes the machines, ending the women's suffering. Getting outside the facility, Thrace is confronted by another Number Four who greets her. Before Thrace or the Four can do anything, the Caprica Resistance and Lieutenant [[Karl Agathon]] arrive and kill the Four. As Thrace attempts to escape to the Resistance, [[Centurion]]s in higher levels of the facility open fire, pinning her and the Resistance down, but [[Sharon Agathon|Caprica-Valerii]] arrives in a captured [[Heavy Raider]] and destroys the Centurions. The Cylon forces and farm destroyed, the Resistance retreats in the Heavy Raider before anymore Cylons can show up. ([[TRS]]: "[[The Farm]]") | ||
