Overview

Summary
Act 1
Act 2
Act 3
Act 4
Notes
- Escape velocity is the minimum initial velocity an unaccelerated object needs to end up orbiting a planet without falling down to it.
- A Gemenon delegate is to be cast[1], suggesting an appearance of the Quorum of Twelve, or at least part of it.
- A Cylon coup is rumored to take place in this episode. The Centurions discover that a device implanted within their brains prevents them from developing free will, and upon having it removed decide to rebel against their humanoid masters. They ambush the humanoid Cylons during a formal dinner, and open fire. This is evidenced by a heavily damaged basestar set, where recent visitors observed bullet ridden walls, broken glass and massive chunks of wall ripped away (presumably by explosive blasts) [2] [3].
- According to an unconfirmed source at SyFy Portal, the Centurion uprising may be the work of a humanoid Cylon. When the Cylons discover that members of the Final Five are located within the Fleet, a proposal to cease further attacks on the humans is made (as it is unknown if these Cylons have the ability to resurrect). The implementation of this proposal rests on a vote among the humanoid Cylons, and after an potentially undesirable decision is made, one of them takes matters into their own hands by reprogramming the Centurions and commissioning the permanent deaths of 3 other humanoid models. Lucy Lawless has been rumored to make a re-appearance [4].
