Overview
- Helo investigates the claims of Sagittarons that a doctor is discriminating against them by providing substandard medical care. [1]
- Things are not well with the fleet. With limited medical supplies and even fewer capable doctors, people are getting sick and dying. One young man, Willie King, is the latest victim -- and unconvinced by the initial autopsy report that shows that he (like many others) died of radiation poisoning, his mother demands answers. She is a Saggitaron, and many of her people are starting to believe that they are being discriminated against when it comes to medical care of the fleet.
- Helo goes to Doctor Robert on board one of the ships for some answers. He shows the man a stack of complaint forms against him. Robert isn't surprised at the people's ungratefulness. He shows Helo how grim the situation is. But Helo is concerned when his own young daughter, a half-Cylon, is injured and comes under Robert's care.
- Later Helo finds his fellow pilot Hot Dog is laid up in Roberts' medical bay, and not doing well. Still suspect of Robert's care, Helo eventually tries to take his friend and move him to Doctor Cottle's care -- but security and an angry Doctor Roberts prevent him. - Gateworld
