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 defector later named Sharon Agathon against Cylon forces at a Cylon breeding farm.

Background[edit]

After being sent to Caprica by President Laura Roslin to get the Arrow of Apollo, Lieutenant Kara "Starbuck" Thrace met up with long-missing Lieutenant Karl "Helo" Agathon and his girlfriend, a copy of Kara's friend Boomer. When Thrace repeatedly threatened to kill her, Caprica-Valerii fled in Thrace's stolen Cylon 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", "The Farm")
