Centuri, also known as pilot Centurion 9, is the second of two survivors of the crash of the advanced Cylon "A-B" fighter.
Centuri follows the other survivor, Andromus, to a party in a Henry VII costume. A microwave oven's radiation disables Centuri until Andromus destroys it.
Centuri helps Andromus kidnap Wolfman Jack, and goes to to Wolfman's radio station with Andromus in preparation to send a distress signal for rescue by other Cylons.
Centuri is damaged during a firefight with Troy and Dillon. Disoriented, the Centurion carries an injured Andromus off of the roof of the radio station to their doom (The Night the Cylons Landed).
Notes
- It is never adequately explained how the radiation from a microwave oven overcomes Centuri when Cylons routinely are exposed to much more powerful and malignant radiation with no ill effect. This may be an anti-nuclear political statement inserted into Galactica 1980 by its producers[citation needed], or a statement about perceived health effects of microwave ovens, which were becoming affordable for US consumers at the time.
