Why can't Heracles/Tad guide Joseph Adama through V-world, leaving him instead to wander around ? Give him a map, Tamara-A's previous locations, anything. {{unsigned|Dante2428}}

==Vipers==
Is it reasonable to assume that the Viper shown in this episode is a Mark I? [[User:Ausir|Ausir]] 21:34, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

:I've come to think that the TOS Viper's from the BSG miniseries (even if just a Easter egg/homage) have always been considered as the "Mk.I", possibly used before the introduction of the Mk.II's later in the First Cylon War. I saw "CAF" markings on this aircraft at a quick glance, possibly meaning "Caprican Air Force", which could denote it's inclusion as an atmospheric fighter only. In my opinion, this Viper only relates to the Colonial Fleet Viper in name only, with the later being named after the former. [[User:CommanderTony|CommanderTony]] 05:42, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

:: In a sense, these atmospheric Vipers might be MK # 0. The original Cylon-Raiders seem to be a redesign of auxiliary craft like Raptors. I would not be surprised if we see Battlestars like in the original series in Caprica and the precursors of Basestars being civilian cargo-vessles redesigned into military-vessels because is is easy to pack cylons like sardines in cargo-vessels. In other words, the precursors of most vessels in the Battelstar Galactica (RDM) probably already exist in Caprica. Understandably, all of this is speculation and should be taken with a grain of salt.

== Amanda Seeing Clarice's face? ==

I think the article for The Imperfections of Memory is in error. Amanda seemed to me to be remarking on Clarice's reaction to learning she was in a mental hospital, not that she saw Clarice while "chasing her brother down imaginary and real halls".

Sharr

:You are correct. I wondered what the article was talking about, but supposed I could have missed a line of dialogue. If it is talking about Amanda referring to the look on Clarice's face, then someone had a misunderstanding. -- [[User:Noneofyourbusiness|Noneofyourbusiness]] 13:41, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

::Oh dear. I apologise, I wrote that. I misheard the line :( Thanks for spotting the mistake, I'd never have realised it myself! [[User:Cheka73|Cheka73]] 15:39, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

Have yet to see this episode, but isn't "Graystone Foundation" supposed to be "Graystone Industries?" -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]]</sup> 02:29, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

The letter is addressed to Graystone Foundation. Not sure if this is meant to mean Graystone Industries or an umbrella organisation, perhaps encompassing his ownership of the Buccaneers?

Number Two

"'''Number Two'''", better known as '''Leoben Conoy''', is a [[humanoid Cylon]] first encountered at [[Ragnar Anchorage]]. He fancies himself as a prophet with predilections for enlightened monotheistic religion, whereas he is more likely to sow the seeds of doubt or mis-information, weaving lies in the fabric of truth and faith.

== Ragnar Anchorage Copy ==

Number Two is first encountered at the [[Ragnar Anchorage]], where he poses as an arms dealer and calls himself Leoben Conoy. It is likely that he was assigned with the monitoring of this depot station as the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|war]] began, gaining intelligence on battlestars that visited there. Alternatively, he may have been tasked with stealing away or destroying the ammunition (or the station itself) to prevent its use by the Colonials.

Conoy is already sick from the radiation around Ragnar, suggesting he had been there for several hours before '' Galactica'''s arrival. He becomes trapped aboard the station with Commander [[William Adama|Adama]] after a warhead is accidentally detonated. As they try to find another way out of the station, Conoy reveals his true nature to Adama through conversation, initially by claiming to be something of a philosopher. Identifying Conoy as a Cylon on the point of death, Adama challenges him and learns of the Cylon's ability to transfer their consciousness to another body when dying. Only Leoben can't -- the radiation of [[Ragnar]] is interfering with his ability as he appears to collapse.

A fight ensues, during which Conoy exhibits unnatural strength and speed. Adama manages to kill him by forcing his head over a venting steam pipe and then repeatedly bludgeoning the Cylon to death with a [[flashlight]]. He then brings Conoy's lifeless body back to ''Galactica'' for further examination. Samples from this body, when burned, reveal synthetic materials -- which permit Adama, Colonel [[Saul Tigh|Tigh]] and Dr. [[Gaius Baltar|Baltar]] to deduce that the Cylons could mimic humans in appearance ([[Miniseries]]). The corpse is later stored in the ship's morgue ([[Flesh and Bone]]).

==Gemenon Traveler/New Caprica Copy==

{{mainarticle|Leoben Conoy (New Caprica copy)}}

Not long after the Fleet's first encounter with a Number Two on [[Ragnar Anchorage]], another copy is found stowing away aboard the ''[[Gemenon Traveler]]'', interrogated by [[Kara Thrace]] and eventually executed on the order of President Roslin.

This Number Two becomes infatuated with Thrace, so that he kidnaps her during the occupation of [[New Caprica]] and uses psychological torture to convince her to love him ("[[Occupation]]" through "[[Exodus, Part II]]").

==Starbuck's Virtual Leoben==

{{mainarticle|Virtual Leoben}}

An unknown entity that takes the form of Leoben Conoy guides Kara Thrace through her past and her unresolved issues with her long-dead mother, [[Socrata Thrace]] ([[Maelstrom]]).

== Other Copies ==

[[Image:Le0ben.jpg|thumb|200px|A copy of Two on a Cylon basestar]]

Three copies of Number Two are among the group of Cylons that rescue [[Number Five|Aaron Doral]], abandoned on Ragnar by the Colonials after Dr. Baltar fingers him as a humanoid Cylon, and debrief him ([[Miniseries, Night 2]]).

The [[Caprica Resistance]] captured and interrogated their own copy of a Two, as [[Samuel Anders]] sarcastically quotes his philosophy to [[Kara Thrace]] ([[Resistance (episode)|Resistance]]).

A smattering of Twos are witnessed in the background of the park and cafe scenes in "[[Downloaded]]"<ref>However, these are played by a stand-in as Calum Keith Rennie was unavailable for the episode.</ref>.

Several Twos are present on the Cylon baseship that [[Gaius Baltar]] wakes up on shortly after he and the Cylons flee from New Caprica. [[Caprica-Six]] tells Baltar that his model believes the hybrid model who controls the baseship is speaking the "words of God" in her endlessly incoherent diagnostic babble ([[Torn]]).

Another Two is recovered from an infected baseship by ''Galactica''. He is going to be part of their plan to infect the entire Cylon race with the [[Lymphocytic encephalitis|virus]] spawned from an ancient [[Lion's Head beacon|probe]]. However, he and the other Cylons captured by ''Galactica'' are killed by Karl Agathon before they are within download range of a [[Resurrection Ship]]. Because he is out of range, the death of this Two is permanent. In a [[List of Deleted Scenes - Season 3 (RDM)#A Measure of Salvation|deleted scene]], Kara Thrace confronts this particular Two to ask about why Leoben took her prisoner on New Caprica. This one is either the same Two that she dealt with on New Caprica or is aware of his reasons as he answers as if it was him that did it. He explains that Leoben was looking for someone to love and for that person to love him back. He was willing to do anything for that to happen and brought in [[Kacey Brynn]] as an attempt to draw Thrace closer to him. He refuses to answer anymore questions even when a vaccine is promised to him if he does, but Simon (Number Four) offers to answer questions instead in exchange for the vaccine ([[A Measure of Salvation]]).

At the standoff between ''Galactica'' and several [[Basestar (RDM)|basestar]]s over the [[algae planet]], a Two states that the [[Temple of Five]] and [[Eye of Jupiter]] are far too important to be risked over the testing of Adama's bluff to nuke the planet ([[The Eye of Jupiter]]).

After the [[Battle of the Ionian Nebula]], the Twos vote with the [[Number Six|Sixes]] and [[Number Eight|Eights]] to put a stop to [[Number One]]'s lobotomization of the [[Raider (RDM)|Raiders]], who refuse to fight for fear of harming the [[Final Five]] ([[Six of One]]) after a Raider's detection of [[Samuel Anders|one]] in the [[Fleet (RDM)|Colonial Fleet]] ([[He That Believeth In Me]]). From then on, the Twos are part of Natalie's faction in the [[Cylon Civil War|ensuing schism]] between the Seven.

One Two, either the main one that is obsesed with Starbuck or another one (it's not known for sure) aids [[Laura Roslin]] during [[Gaeta's Mutiny]]. After she tries and repeatedly fails to break through ''Galactica's'' jamming to broadcast a message to the Fleet, he uses some sort of device to help her break the jamming and transmit after she convinces the Cylons to aid her and Admiral Adama rather than run. When she succedes he tells her that he thought the device he used would do the trick and allow her to penetrate the jamming ([[Blood on the Scales]]).

A copy of the Two model is seen on the new planet with the Colonials, agreeing to remain with them to "see what good they can do before they pass into [[God]]'s hands". It is not known how many survived. ([[Daybreak, Part II]])

== Notes ==

* The model number for Leoben Conoy is revealed in the [[Season 4 (2008)|Season 4]] episode, "[[Six of One]]", along with numbers [[Number One|one]] and [[Number Four|four]]. Previously, this model was referred to by his alias both by the humans and the Cylons.

* Laura Roslin inadvertently referred to him as "Leoben ConROY" during "Flesh and Bone", which had to be edited when it was used as a sound bite in an intro segment in a subsequent episode.

*[[Wikipedia:Conoy Township, PA|Conoy]] is the name of a township in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

*[[w:Leoben|Leoben]] is also the name of city in [[w:Austria|Austria]], north of the city of [[w:Graz|Graz]] and home to the [[w:University of Leoben|University of Leoben]]. Leoben was the site of a [[w:Treaty of Leoben|peace treaty]] between [[w:Napoleon Bonaparte|Napoleonic France]] and Austria. Like Leoben Conoy, the treaty had many secret or hidden elements; it wound up redrawing the map of [[w:Europe|Europe]].

== Overview ==
: ''[[Tomas Vergis]] comes to [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]] to seek vengeance on [[Daniel Graystone]] for two workers who were killed during the theft of his [[meta-cognitive processor]]. [[Clarice Willow|Sister Clarice]] tries to steal [[Zoe-A|Zoe's avatar]], a move that will reveal her plan and gain attention amidst the [[Soldiers of the One]] who are under the reckless leadership of [[Barnabas Greeley]].

== Summary ==

=== Teaser ===

=== Act 1 ===

=== Act 2 ===

=== Act 3 ===

=== Act 4 ===

== Notes ==
* In a reference to the [[Original Series]], a man on [[Talk Wireless]] mentions the [[Book of the Word]] at the beginning of Act Three.
* According to ''[[The Caprican]]'', the art [[Daniel Graystone]] and [[Tomas Vergis]] appreciate while speaking to one another is from [[Kobol (RDM)|Kobol]]. It is also a real-life art exhibit in [[w:Vancouver|Vancouver]].
* The first on-screen depiction of Tauron City is borrowed from [[Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Libran|Libran]] as shown in "[[The Plan]]". A small number of buildings were added to the shot, along with a wider view of the nighttime sky.

== Analysis ==
* In this episode, [[Clarice Willow|Sister Clarice]] confirms that her faction of the [[Soldiers of the One|STO]] intended to use [[Zoe-A|Zoe's avatar]] as a means for achieving immortality. This is a curious parallel to both [[Daniel Graystone]] and [[Joseph Adama]]'s own intents with the technology, as well as to the [[resurrection]] capabilities of the [[humanoid Cylon]]s. It is likely that this latter parallel is intentional and possibly connected, although we also know from "[[No Exit]]" that the [[Final Five]] are responsible for creating resurrection technology. Additionally, "[[Guess What's Coming to Dinner?]]" makes it clear that the [[Significant Eight]] have no idea how the technology works. It is possible, however, that the issues for the Significant Eight are not related to creating a digital construct of a person's personality, but rather downloading them back into a humanoid cylon body.
* Just prior to the attacks on the [[Twelve Colonies]] as shown in [[The Plan]], the [[Hybrid]] reporting on the progress of the attack utters the line "Apotheosis was the beginning before the beginning", possibly confirming a link between Clarice's aims and the evolution of the Cylon race.
* Although [[Lacy Rand]]'s meeting with [[Barnabas Greeley|Barnabas]] appeared to be fruitless, it was not necessarily. Barnabas revealed in the following conversation with [[Keon Gatwick|Keon]] that he is willing to work with Lacy, so long as he knows what she's up to.
* It is possible, given the [[Soldiers of the One|STO]]'s interest in [[Zoe Graystone]]'s avatar program that they will attempt to create sapient digital avatars of themselves as well.
* [[Evelyn]]'s intimate moment with [[Joseph Adama]], while brief, indicates that Evelyn may indeed become [[William Adama|Willie]]'s stepmother, possibly validating his parentage as established in "[[Hero]]".

== Questions ==
* Did [[Clarice Willow|Clarice]] really obtain [[Zoe Graystone|Zoe]]'s avatar program? If so, will she and the [[Soldiers of the One|STO]] make more avatars with it?
* Given the similarities between "apotheosis" (as described by Clarice's faction) and [[resurrection]] is there any connection between the two? If so are [[Zoe-A]] and [[Tamara-A]] related to the [[Significant Eight]]'s original selves (before they assumed [[humanoid cylon|humanoid form]])?
* How will [[Tomas Vergis]] ruin [[Daniel Graystone|Daniel]]?
* Will Vergis discover [[Joseph Adama]]'s connection to the robbery? If so, how will the [[Guatrau]] react?
* Does [[Zoe-A]] have an ulterior motive in befriending [[Philomon]] within the V-world? Or is she simply lonely?
* Will Philomon discover Zoe-A's true identity?
* Will [[Evelyn]]'s relations with Joseph Adama advance beyond professional?

Do we know that this is the same place that ended up being the farm? I know that Simon mentioned it was an old mental institution, but I don't really remember him naming it. I could be wrong, though. --[[User:Rjinswand|Rjinswand]] 19:56, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

* It's a mental institution in Delphi, which is exactly what Simon called the building in The Farm. It would seem like too much of a coincidence not to be the case, I just took it be the same place that the farm was set up in. Of course we'll never know for sure unless Ron Moore says so, but given the coincidence (and that the corridors look very alike in both episodes) I took it to be a continuity nod, much like the Vipers and reference to Pythia also in the episode.

Farm

2010-03-13T17:51:23Z

Cheka73:

[[Image:Farm.jpg|200px|thumb|right|A Caprican Farm.]]
A '''"farm"''' is a facility constructed by the Cylons in an effort to solve their difficulties with sexual reproduction using both male and female human test subjects.<ref>{{cite_rdm_podcast|episode=The Farm|act=3|id=farms|timestamp=|totalrunning=}}</ref> There are multiple farms, with a notable one existing on occupied [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]] somewhere near [[Delphi]].

Such facilities are overseen by the [[Number Four|Fours]], although [[Number One]] doesn't agree with the religious tract that the research has taken on to the Cylons ("[[The Plan]]", "[[No Exit]]").

[[Kara Thrace]] and [[Sue-Shaun]] are taken to a farm (formerly the [[Delphi Convalescent Institute]]) after being wounded in an ambush orchestrated by Caprica-Cavil ("[[The Farm]]", "[[The Plan]]"). Inside, the farm held hundreds of women hooked up to medical equipment, used as living incubators. Thrace is cared for separately (and under the guise of mending from her injuries) and her case reviewed by a Four using his human name, Simon.

According to [[Sharon Agathon|Sharon Agathon ''neé'' Valerii]], the Farms haven't produced viable Human/Cylon hybrid offspring, ergo the experiment that manipulates [[Karl Agathon|Karl "Helo"Agatho]] into falling in love with Valerii. Some Cylons theorize that the farms failed because a child must be conceived in love (keeping in mind that the Cylons believe that "God is love"), and as a result Caprica-Valerii carries the first and only successful hybrid pregnancy.

After Thrace escapes the farm where she is held, [[Caprica Resistance]] leader [[Samuel Anders]] promises her that his band of fighters would attempt to destroy as many of the remaining farms as they could ([[The Farm]]) before they are rescued months later ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part I]]).

The farms are abandoned after the Cylons decide to leave the Colonies ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]). It remains unknown how the captured humans are dealt with as a result of this decision.

'''Serge''' was the [[Robot#Robot servants|robot butler]] of [[Graystones|Graystone Family]] at their [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]] home 58 years prior to the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]]. Much more primitive than his contemporary, the experimental Cyber Combat Unit (and the later [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylons]]), Serge was nevertheless capable of managing household tasks like granting and denying access to visitors and remote controlling home operations. His non-humanoid design (marked by a single, circular eye) was similar to other robots of the time including targeting drones for weapons accuracy and reaction time test for prototype [[U-87]] combat robots (''[[Caprica (series)|Caprica]]'' [[Caprica pilot|pilot]]).

Unlike the later [[Cybernetic Life-Form Node]]s created by [[Graystone Industries]], Serge does not possess sentience. [[Amanda]] complains that Serge's demeanour is constantly altered to the point of becoming too helpful as [[Daniel]] experiments with his programming. (''Know Thy Enemy'')

==Notes==
* Serge was voiced by ''Caprica'' editor [[Jim Thomson]].
* It is not known if Serge-type robots are common on Caprica or if they are exclusively used by the Graystones, however, nonplussed reactions from visitors who interact with Serge indicates that they are not wholly unusual.

Delphi Convalescent Institute

2010-03-13T17:08:55Z

Cheka73:

The '''Delphi Convalescent Institute''', est. YR 01, was a mental health facility located in [[Terreo Avenue]] in [[Delphi]], [[Caprica]].

[[Amanda Graystone]] spent two and a half years in the institute recovering from a breakdown she suffered after the death of her brother [[Darius]]. ''([[The Imperfections of Memory]])''

More than sixty years later, after the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]], the institute is used as a [[farm]] by the occupying Cylons, staffed by several [[Number Four]]s, a [[Six]] and protected by a number of [[Centurions]]. It is destroyed by [[Kara Thrace]] when she escapes after being held there for several days. ''([[The Farm]])''

Sacred Scrolls

2010-03-13T17:06:03Z

Cheka73: /* The Cycle of Time */

: ''For the Sacred Scrolls depicted in the comic books, see: [[Sacred Scrolls (alternate)]].''

[[Image:Pythia.jpg|right|thumb|A portion of the Sacred Scrolls, specifically, a portion of the Book of [[Pythia]].]]
The '''Sacred Scrolls''' are a set of writings that form the basis of [[Religion in the Twelve Colonies|Colonial religion]], a polytheistic faith resembling the legends of ancient Greece. The scrolls record much of the alleged history of humanity, including life on [[Kobol (RDM)|Kobol]] before the great exodus, and the legend of [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]]. Portions of the scrolls are used in religious ceremonies, such as the [[Service for the dead]] ([[Miniseries]], "[[Act of Contrition]]").

Most notable among the Sacred Scrolls is the Book of Pythia, also referred to as the Pythian Prophecy. Written 3,600 years ago by the oracle [[Pythia]], they are believed by some to foretell the current exodus from the [[Twelve Colonies of Kobol]].

==Contents==
The contents of the Sacred Scrolls have only been revealed in glimpses, through brief quotes, paraphrases and explanations.

===The Book of [[Pythia]]===
:'''Roslin:''' Who is Pythia?<br>'''Elosha:''' One of the [[oracle]]s in the Sacred Scrolls. 3,600 years ago. Pythia wrote about the exile and rebirth of the human race. ([[The Hand of God (RDM)|The Hand of God]])

====The Cycle of Time====
:'''Leoben:''' ''"All this has happened before, and all of it will happen again."'' ([[Flesh and Bone]])

:'''Six:''' ''"All this has happened before, and all this will happen again."'' ([[The Hand of God (RDM)|The Hand of God]])

:'''Roslin:''' If you believe in the gods, then you believe in the cycle of time that we are all playing our parts in a story that is told again, and again, and again throughout eternity. ([[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I]])

:'''Amanda Graystone:''' Do you remember that old saying? "All this has happened before, and all this will happen again"? ([[The Imperfections of Memory]])

====The Dying Leader====
:'''Elosha:''' ''"And the lords anointed a leader to guide the Caravan of the Heavens to their new homeland."'' ([[The Hand of God (RDM)|The Hand of God]])

:'''Elosha:''' She also wrote that the new leader suffered a wasting disease and would not live to enter the new land. ([[The Hand of God (RDM)|The Hand of God]])

:'''Roslin:''' The scriptures tell us a dying leader lead humanity to the promised land. ([[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I]])

====A Vision of Serpents====
:'''Elosha:''' ''"And unto the leader they gave a vision of serpents numbering two and ten, as a sign of things to come."'' ([[The Hand of God (RDM)|The Hand of God]])

====The Serpents Lead the People Into Battle?====
:'''Six:''' ''"Led by serpents numbering two and ten..."'' (fragment) ([[The Hand of God (RDM)|The Hand of God]])

====A Confrontation at the Home of the Gods====
:'''Six:''' ''"Though the outcome favored the few, it led to a confrontation at the home of the gods."'' ([[The Hand of God (RDM)|The Hand of God]])

====The Lower Demon====
:'''Elosha:''' The scrolls of Pythia do speak of a [[Sharon Agathon|lower demon]], who helped the people in a time of crisis. ([[Home, Part I]])

====The Blaze and the High Road====
:'''Elosha:''' ''"And the blaze pursued them, and the people of Kobol had a choice. To board the great ship, or take the high road through the rocky ridge."''<br>
:'''Valerii (continuing):''' ''"And the body of each tribe's leader was offered to the gods in the [[tomb of Athena]]."'' And the great ship was the [[galleon]] that departed from here, where we're standing. And it took the founders of the thirteen colonies to their destiny. And those that didn't board the galleon took the high road, a rocky ridge that lead to the tomb. ([[Home, Part I]])

:'''Elosha:''' The path is supposed to be marked by gravestones. ([[Home, Part I]])

====The Gates of Hera====
:'''Valerii:''' That's the spot where your god supposedly stood and watched Athena throw herself down onto the rocks below, out of despair over the Exodus of the thirteen tribes. Athena's tomb, whoever or whatever she really was, is probably up there. ([[Home, Part II]])

====The Arrow of Apollo====
:'''Roslin:''' ''"And the Arrow of Apollo will open the Tomb of Athena."'' ([[Home, Part II]])

:'''Elosha:''' The scriptures tell us that Kobol points the way to Earth. ([[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I]])

:'''Roslin:''' According to the scriptures, if we had the arrow of Apollo we could take it down to Kobol and we could use it to open the tomb of Athena and find our way to Earth. ([[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I]])

====Kobol and the Blood Price====
:'''Adama:''' ''"And [[Zeus, Lord of Kobol|Zeus]] warned the leaders of the twelve tribes that any return to Kobol would exact a price in blood."'' ([[Home, Part II]])

====The Flood====
:'''Baltar:''' ''"Pythia talks about the flood ... wiped out most of humanity ... nobody blames the flood ... flood is a force of nature ... through flood, mankind is rejuvinated, born again ..."'' ([[The Hub]])

===History===

====Pre-Exodus====
:'''Elosha:''' This place is Kobol... birthplace of mankind, where the gods and men lived in paradise until the exodus of the thirteen tribes. ([[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I]])

====The Exodus====
:'''Elosha:''' How old are the ruins?<br>'''[[Billy Keikeya]]:''' Well, we won't know for sure until we send a ground team, but the initial estimates have it on the order of approximately 2,000 years.<br>'''Elosha:''' That's around the time the thirteen tribes first left Kobol. ([[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I]])

====The Thirteenth Tribe on Earth====
:'''Starbuck:''' The scriptures say that when the thirteenth tribe landed on Earth, they looked up into the heavens and they saw their twelve brothers. ([[Home, Part II]])

===Other verses from the Sacred Scrolls===
*'''Adama:''' "Life here began out there." These are the first words of the Sacred Scrolls…<ref>The phrase is an homage to the voiceover in the [[Original Series]] opening credits.</ref> ([[Miniseries]])
*During a [[Salt Line Ceremony]] on ''Galactica'': "Their enemies will divide them. Their colonies broken in the fiery chasm of space. Their shining days renounced by a multitude of dark sacrifices. Yet still they will remain always together." ([[Exodus, Part I]])

===Sayings<ref>These sayings are similar to the [[Wikipedia:Algernon Sydney|Algernon Sydney]] quote "God helps those who help themselves"</ref>===
:'''Commander Adama:''' ''"The gods shall lift those who lift each other."'' ([[Home, Part II]])
:'''[[Cavil]]:''' ''"The gods lift up those who lift each other."'' ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part I]])
:'''[[Duck]]:''' ''"The gods help those who help themselves."'' ([[Battlestar Galactica: The Resistance|The Resistance]])

==Notes==

* The book of Pythia, which contains or is identical to the Pythian Prophecy, was written 1,600 years before the final exodus of the last twelve tribes, and documents the exodus of the [[Thirteenth Tribe (RDM)|Thirteenth Tribe]]. The text apparently contains a detailed narrative of the events of the Exodus, and continues to be interpreted as a source of prophecy 2,000 years after its prophecies have (apparently) already been fulfilled.
* The Cycle of Time is apparently a key component of Colonial theology. The notion of a circular progression of time (also known as [[Wikipedia:Eternal return|eternal return]] or eternal recurrence) is foreign to the ancient Greek religion of which Colonial religion are largely based, but it is a common theme in many modern religions. Some Hindus believe in an endless cycle of ages called [[Wikipedia:Yuga|Yugas]]. The ancient [[Wikipedia:Maya|Maya]] people, as well as the [[Wikipedia:Inca|Incas]] and [[Wikipedia:Aztec|Aztecs]] also believed in the circular nature of time. In philosophy, the [[Wikipedia:Stoics|Stoics]], a movement originating in hellenistic Greece, held the doctrine. In the nineteenth century, the doctrine appears in the writings of [[Wikipedia:Friedrich Nietzsche|Friedrich Nietzsche]] as a method of life-affirmation.

==Analysis==

===Correspondences===
Assuming the events following the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]] are a repetition of the events predicted by Pythia, and which came to pass centuries later, we can make use of the prophecy by first constructing a coherent historical narrative from them and then looking for correspondences with the events of the series.

*The Lower Demon is [[Sharon Agathon|the Caprica copy of Sharon Valerii]]
*The Dying Leader is President [[Laura Roslin]]
*The "serpents numbering two and ten" are the [[Viper (RDM)|Viper]]s of Strike Force Two in the [[Battle for the Tylium Asteroid]].
*The fleet defended by ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'' is the "Caravan of the Heavens".
*The "price in blood" has been paid by various people including [[Crashdown]] and [[Elosha]].
*The Jealous God is Cavil, as he is the humanoid Cylon model that instigated the [Fall of the 12 Colonies] and wanted to be favored by his creators over the other models.
*The "offering of the bodies of the leaders of the 12 Tribes to the gods" is the Final Five's offering the Centurions help creating the humanoid models.

===The "One Exodus" Interpretation===
This interpretation assumes that the timeline is recurring on a scale of 1,600 to 2,000 years, and the exodus from Kobol is a direct parallel to the exodus from the Twelve Colonies. It also makes some correspondences in addition to those above:

*The "Blaze" identified by Sharon Valerii is an earlier parallel to the Cylon attack. The hostile force is the "jealous God", the Lord of Kobol that tried to elevate himself over the others.
*The Home of the Gods is [[Kobol (RDM)|Kobol]], and the people of Kobol are the [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)|Twelve Colonies]], in a somewhat metaphorical sense.

The timeline would proceed thus:

#The people of Kobol lived in divine utopia with their gods.
#A hostile force - of which "the blaze" and the "lower demon" were parts - moves against the people of Kobol.
#The gods appoint a leader afflicted with a wasting disease to lead a "caravan of the heavens".
#The leader, with the aid of twelve "serpents", wins a perilous battle.
#The people make their way to the "home of the gods".
#Athena despairs and commits suicide.
#The leaders of the people are taken to the Tomb of Athena to be sacrificed to the remaining gods.
#The body of the people depart in a "[[galleon]]" for a new home.
#Instructions are left to open the Tomb of Athena.
#Zeus warns against a return to Kobol.
#The twelve tribes settle on the Twelve Colonies. The thirteenth tribe settles on [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]].

However, at least three exodus events are documented. Pythia writes of "the exile and rebirth of the human race" ([[The Hand of God (RDM)|The Hand of God]]) 1,600 years before the exodus of the tribes from Kobol. The third exodus (from the Colonies) is underway.

=== The Origin of Mankind ===

There are two types of original man: those found on Kobol and, later, on New Earth.

The humans on Kobol evolved on Kobol, created machines ([[Cylons (RDM)|Cylons]]) on Kobol, and then a war against the machines occurred ("the Blaze"). The great exodus from Kobol split the humans and original Cylons apart: the humans went to settle what would be known as [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)|The Twelve Colonies]], and the Cylons (having assumed human form) settled Earth and built their own machines, which rose up and killed their masters in a nuclear holocaust some 2,000 years prior to the [[Cylon War]] ("[[Home, Part I]]", "[[Sometimes a Great Notion]]", "[[No Exit]]").

After the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]], the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] discovers Kobol and various "road signs" to the first, real Earth, namely the [[Tomb of Athena]], [[The Temple of Hopes]], and the [[Ionian Nebula]] ("[[Home, Part II]]", "[[The Eye of Jupiter]]", "[[Rapture]]", "[[Crossroads, Part II]]", "[[He That Believeth in Me]]"). After discovering that Earth and the Thirteenth Tribe were Cylons originating from Kobol (of which only five survivors remain in the form of the "[[Final Five]]," who developed the "[[Significant Seven]]" Cylons after the [[Cimtar Peace Accord]]), the Fleet discovers a second planet with genetically compatible bipedal humanoid creatures in a primitive, tribal stage of development. Guided here by [[Kara Thrace|Kara "Starbuck" Thrace]], these humans breed with the Colonials and the only half-human, half-Cylon hybrid [[Hera Agathon]] (later known only as the "Mitochondrial Eve"), and spawned off a civilization lasting 150,000 years ("[[Daybreak, Part II]]").

===The Form of the Scrolls===

The Sacred Scrolls have been seen as an actual, ornate scroll (as shown in the [[Miniseries]]), as well as a book (Both Adama and Roslin read what appear to be identically-created books in "[[Home, Part II]]").

The total volume of the Scrolls has not been revealed, so it is possible that the scroll that [[Elosha]] holds in the Miniseries as she swears in President Roslin and holds during the service for the dead may make up only a portion of the total texts, or key readings from the works. A shortened volume may be a specialized volume containing prayers and readings specific to a celebrant's use during [[temple]] ceremonies, Services for the Dead, weddings, [[dedication ceremony|dedication ceremonies]] and the like<ref>Similar to the Roman Catholic Church's use of [[Wikipedia:Missal|missals]].</ref>.

Much of the Scrolls appear to be handwritten. While the technology of the Twelve Colonies obviously support electronic printing and reproduction, it may be that the most authentic copies of the sacred texts are either authentic reproductions from a handwritten copy, or genuine handwritten copies. This practice may be for reasons of authenticity, custom, or aesthetics<ref>The practice is similar to the work and purposes of the [[Wikipedia:Scribes|scribes]] before the invention of the printing press in real-Earth history. For comparison, an extreme example of the tradition of handwritten sacred texts in real-Earth history are the [[Wikipedia:Sefer Torah|sefer Torahs]].</ref>.

Because Sagittarons are traditionally pacifists and do not believe in modern medicine for religious reasons, while the Gemenese traditionally interpret the Sacred Scrolls literally but do not share these practices, it is likely that the Gemenese and Sagittarons have different versions of the Sacred Scrolls, or that the Sagittarons have some supplemental religious document or oral tradition in addition to the Scrolls, or they may simply, like real world religions, interpret the exact same information differently.

===Last rites at the [[Service for the dead|Services for the dead]]===

[[Elosha]] gives a form of last rites or respects to the fallen crew after [[Battle of Ragnar Anchorage|the Fleet escapes Ragnar Anchorage]] in an unusual language<ref>The actress is singing Sanskrit verses from the Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upanishad. Roughly translated, the verse says, "Lead us from Falsehood to Truth, from Darkness to Light, from Death to Immortality."</ref>.

Years later, Amanda began seeing visions of Darius once again, and together with Sister [[Clarice Willow]] began to wonder if the visions were actually a sign of some kind.

== Overview ==
''To continue her goal of obtaining [[Zoe-A|Zoe's avatar]], [[Clarice Willow|Clarice]] carries on her friendship with [[Amanda Graystone|Amanda]] who is being haunted by visions of her [[Darius|dead brother]]. [[Tad Thorean|Heracles]] guides [[Joseph Adama|Joseph]] through the hazards of ''[[New Cap City]]''.

== Summary ==

=== Teaser ===

=== Act 1 ===

=== Act 2 ===

=== Act 3 ===

=== Act 4 ===

== Notes ==
* The Delphi Convalescent Institute appears to be the same location the Cylons use as a farm after the Fall, and where [[Kara Thrace]], amongst other women, are kept prisoner. Indeed, in [[The Farm]], [[Simon]] states that the building was formerly a mental hospital.

== Analysis ==

== Questions ==
* Is there any weight to [[Clarice]]'s theory that [[God]] is speaking to her through [[Amanda]] and [[Zoe]]? Amanda claims she saw Clarice's face while she was recovering in the Institute. Could this be evidence of a higher power at work, just as the [[Angels]] influence events during and after the Fall?
* Following on from this question, could there be a connection between Amanda's visions of her brother and the apparitions that appear to people in the Fleet sixty years later?
