Extended

Agathon, a.k.a., Helo was the fellow co-pilot of Lieutenat Sharon Valerii's. Upon landing on Caprica just after the Cylons attacked, the raptor he was on with Valerii (a.k.a. Boomer) was mobbed with surviving Colonials. When Helo identified Gaius Baltar in the crowd of survivors, Helo traded his seat for Baltar -- clearly unsuspecting of Baltar's role in the ensued Cylon holocaust.

After Boomer's departure, Helo apparently separated from the surviving refugees and fled from the Cylon ground forces. After six days on Caprica, suriving on anti-radiation medications from his survival pack, he was captured after noticing a version of the Cylon called Number 6.

He was then "rescued" by a copy of Sharon Valerii/Boomer. Together, they followed a Cylon-set Colonial military beacon to a fallout shelter underneath a diner, which was loaded with the supplies they need. Eventually, the Cylon's sprang their "trap" and abducted the Caprica Boomer to test whether or not Helo would rescue Boomer.

It is speculated that the Cylons wish for Boomer to be the object of Helo's affections, now that Tyrol is out of the picture. This has worked thus far, seeing as Helo rescued Boomer and has let the Caprica Boomer know his feelings for her.
