Another Number Six
Wasn't there another Number Six encountered and killed by Starbuck in Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II? --Blacklight
- There are many copies, of course, and because they are identical, it is impossible to know if a specific copy was killed. Six is everywhere! Best to mention the copy only when they do something distinctive or have a specific identity in an episode, such as Godfrey and Gina, or Baltar's Six. Spencerian 21:43, 1 October 2005 (EDT)
- Actually that was one of the "standard" "Caprican Overseer Models" as evidenced by her black jacket. ---Ricimer, 10 October, 2005
Notes move
Spencerian - I put the notes back in their old position based on the conversation Day and I had at Battlestar Wiki talk:Characters/Archive01#Layout in Humano-Cylon Articles. As I said there, there are many cases where notes, points of analysis, etc. may be applicable only to individual copies of a particular humano-cylon, or to the entire model line. If you disagree, please re-open the conversation on the Characters talk page.--Peter Farago 11:48, 10 October 2005 (EDT)
- Done. See the page. Spencerian 12:14, 10 October 2005 (EDT)
The Many Deaths of Six
Just having some fun on the talk page here; but it's fun to think of just how many times and ways Six has died (after seeing the part that said "copies have been destroyed in several episodes). Number Six has been killed by methods including:
- By broken glass from windows exploding inwards from the shockwave of a distant nuclear blast.
- Shot in the back by another humanoid Cylon, Caprica-Sharon.
- Pushed off of a ledge and impaled on the Arrow of Apollo by Starbuck.
- Brained over the head with a fire extinguisher by Starbuck.
To quote Third Rock From The Sun, "We just kept hitting it, and hitting it, but it just wouldn't die!". --Ricimer, 10 October, 2005
- Was Six killed on the Arrow, or was she impaled on debris on the floor where they landed? I'm pretty sure it was NOT the Arrow...worth looking again. We don't know that the "extinguished" Six was killed, but she was certainly knocked out. Spencerian 12:26, 11 October 2005 (EDT)
Actually
She was not killed by the arrow at all. If you go back and look at the season finale, you will see that Six had a marine style "Ka-Bar" knife sticking out of her torso. IIRC, starbuck actually has the arrow in her hand. --Shogunmoon 12:45, 4 November 2005 (EST)
Natasi?
I've heard that "Natasi" is the name used in the mini-series novilization. However has the name been used anywhere else other than that? If so, we should be careful in the name's use... Otherwise I would make a note of it in the "Notes" section, but wouldn't introduce the name into the main article... Comments, questions or concerns anyone? -- Joe Beaudoin 14:04, 9 December 2005 (EST)
- The fact that somebody had to comment on how it was pronounced ("Carver stated that he pronounces "Natasi" as "Nuh-TAH-see", though fans could really pronounce it any way they want.") would lead me to believe that it hadn't been spoken onscreen. Otherwise, it would be pretty evident. --Steelviper 14:13, 9 December 2005 (EST)
- I'm the one that originally reported this here (I asked the question on GalacticaStation), and I don't think we should put it EVERYWHERE. All I wanted was a little footnote at the end of the "Baltar's original Six" entry. I don't think it should be casually used to refer to her; it's just a fun anecdote. --Ricimer 15:09, 9 December 2005 (EST)
- I don't mind using it where relevant (and cited), as long as nothing contradicts it. It stands to reason that Baltar didn't spend two years calling her "Hey you, with the platinum hair in the miniskirt." I wonder if "Epiphanies" will shed any light on this. --Peter Farago 15:18, 9 December 2005 (EST)
- I always figured he called her Sex-Bot 9000. ;) --Day 16:03, 9 December 2005 (EST)
- According to James Callis in his Sci-Fi Magazine interview, what Baltar was initially calling her was something more like "Oh, gods! Oh...gods! Oh! My! GODS!" Seriously, however, since it appears in an official novelization, we could allow it, with suitable caveat that this is not aired content. --Spencerian 16:10, 9 December 2005 (EST)
