Cylons | Cylons treated these clones with apparently greater distaste than the human Colonials, considering them to be sub-human and inflicted various mistreatments to Thetas. It is due to this, and the fact that they were able to procreate, that incites the Thetas to rise up in opposition to the Cylons. Despite initial reservations, they aid Captain [[Apollo (TOS)|Apollo]]'s expedition in destroying the [[Ravashol pulsar]] and the Cylon garrison on the planet. Ravashol commits himself to the Thetas, claiming that he has other inventions and means to resist the Cylons when they return {{OS|The Gun on Ice Planet Zero, Part II}}. | ||
