Farm: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 02:52, 29 April 2007

A "farm" is a facility on occupied Caprica (and presumably the other Colonies) constructed by the Cylons in an effort to solve their difficulties with sexual reproduction.

Kara Thrace and Sue-Shaun are taken to a farm after being wounded in an ambush. Inside, the farm held hundreds of women hooked up to medical equipment, used as living incubators. Thrace is cared for separately (and under the guise of mending from her injuries) and her case reviewed by a physician Simon.

According to Caprica-Valerii, the Farms actually "haven't been very successful" and presumably they have never actually succeeded in their goal of producing Cylon/Human hybrids. This is why the Cylon experiment was developed which manipulated Helo into falling in love with Caprica-Valerii. The Cylons theorized that the farms failed because a child must be conceived in love (keeping in mind that the Cylons believe that "God is love"), and as a result Caprica-Valerii had the first successful hybrid pregnancy.

After Thrace escapes, Caprica Resistance leader Samuel Anders promises her that his band of fighters would attempt to destroy as many of these farms as they could (The Farm).

Notes

In his podcast for this episode, Ron D. Moore suggests that "this farm that Kara is part of is one of many that are strewn all over Caprica and the other colonies, trying to conceive, trying to figure out ways that the Cylons can reproduce; and one would presume that they're using human women, and in other facilities they're using human men, and that a variety of in vitro programs are being tested..."
