Battlestar Galactica: Razor Flashbacks are an online series that aims provide the story of a young William Adama's (Nico Cortez) discovery of a Cylon experiment during his time in the first Cylon War. The webisodes are aimed to lay down the back story for events in Season 4 that will "threaten him, the crew of the Pegasus and the survival of the human race". The webisodes can be viewed through the official SciFi.com or on the screen during airings of Flash Gordon on Friday at 9/8 P.M. CT.

The webisode series was written by Michael Taylor, and directed by Wayne Rose and Felix Alcala. In fact, these flashbacks were cut out of the "Razor" television movie due to time constraints, but will be reintegrated in the version of "Razor" for the Region 1 DVD.

Summary

Episode 1

On board Galactica, Jaycie McGavin and Billy "Husker" Adama are having sex in the duty locker. During which, McGavin asks if Adama left his boots out. Adama tells her that he ran into the Commander while he was taking off his boots, which leads into them mocking the commander with one of his apparently well-known greetings.

McGavin and Adama talk before joining a battle to attack an ice planet in the "ass end of nowhere", where a rumored Cylon superweapon is allegedly being built. It is defended heavily by the Cylons: three Raider wings, ground forces, defensive batteries and nuclear weapons.

Another rumor they talk about is that peace negotiations are in progress and that the Cylons may unexpectedly surrender, which McGavin scoffs as unlikely. She runs off to report to a briefing for Raptor Squadron 2, leaving Adama alone as the ship readies itself for possible nuclear attack.
