Natalie is a Number Six copy who leads a faction advocating the search for the Final Five Cylons, believing that they have answers about the Cylons' origins and their place in the universe.

After the Raiders abort the Battle of the Ionian Nebula Natalie, a Number Two and a Number Eight approach Cavil with the suggestion, that the Final Five are with the humans in the refugee fleet. This is fully declined by Cavil. He suggests that only the Raiders are a problem, because they extended their original programming and now violate their orders to fight the refugee fleet.

The faction led by Natalie loses a majority vote to prevent dumbing down the Raiders by removing some of their free will through a surgical procedure. Natalie is further dismayed that Boomer voted against her model to side with Cavil, thus further endangering the tenuous balance of the Cylon decision making process.

After a last attempt to stop the Raiders' lobotomization, she orders two Centurions into the conference room and reports to the attendant Number One, Number Four and Number Five copies that they removed the telencephalic inhibitors, which prevent the Centurions from using their higher cognitive functions. The Centurions open fire and kill everyone supporting Number One (Six of One).

Natalie and two Number Eights meet with the resurrected Cavil to discuss the terms of ending the conflict. Cavil agrees to stop lobotomizing Raiders and to air Natalie's proposal to unbox the Number Three line before his compatriots. Later, Cavil informs Natalie's faction that their terms have been agreed to, and the fleet will jump to the nearest server to learn what the resurrected Threes know about the Final Five. This turns out to be a trap. The Resurrection Ship does not jump to the rendezvous point, and Cavil's baseships open fire on Natalie's fleet, inflicting heavy damage (The Ties That Bind).

When Leoben returns with Kara Thrace, Athena, Samuel Anders and Jean Barolay she is reluctant to take Thrace to the Hybrid but ultimatly agrees since they need the Colonials help. Her basestar is the only one that survives Cavil's assault and has sustained heavy damage. When a Six kills Barolay (the Six had been drowned by Barolay and suffered emotional trauma) she kills the Six to appease the Colonials even knowing that that Six was going to be gone for good with the Ressurection Ship out of range. She is there for the Hybrid's message to Thrace and after helping comfort a mortally wounded Eight as it died, she helps decipher the Hybrid's meaning before taking the Basestar to meet up with the Demetrius (Faith).

Notes

• The name "Natalie" stems from the Latin natalis (birthday), which could be a hint that she plays a significant role in the evolution of the Cylon culture.
