edit source
Main article: Caprican refugees

Among a larger group of refugees finding Karl Agathon's and Sharon Valerii's Raptor somewhere in the countryside near Caprica City, are a man who tries to bribe his way aboard, a forgetful older woman who almost misses that she won a ticket to leave, and a desperate man who futilely clings to the ship's hull as it takes off and is shot by Agathon. It is likely that the refugees who stay on Caprica (except Agathon, who carries anti-radiation medication), eventually succumb to radiation poisoning[1] (TRS: "Miniseries, Night 1").

The bribing man[2] is a man with a lot of money at his disposal who tries to escape the bombing of Caprica.

He offers 50,000 cubits to Agathon as a bribe to get him and his wife on board. Agathon refuses his offer as well as that of another man (off-screen) who counters with 60,000 cubits. The man's lottery number is not picked, and he and his wife are left behind on Caprica.

The "bribing man" is portrayed by actor Zahf Paroo.

An unnamed elderly lady with glasses[3] asks fellow refugee Gaius Baltar to help read her lottery number as she cannot find her glasses, not realizing that her glasses are resting safely on top of her head.

The woman has the final selected number, "47".[4] Baltar hesitates to answer the old woman, as if he was considering switching his number for hers, when Agathon calls for him to approach.

Fearing that Agathon knows something about his involvement in the Cylon attack, Baltar claims not to have done anything wrong, points out that the old woman has the lucky number, and escorts her to the front of the crowd and to the Raptor. Agathon chooses to give his seat up for Baltar, believing his scientific mind would be more helpful to mankind's survival (TRS: "Miniseries, Night 1").

The "lady with glasses" is portrayed by actress Brenda McDonald.
