Overview

The Cylons are bitterly divided over how to deal with the Cylon Raiders, who refuse to attack the Colonial Fleet because of the recent detection of the Final Five within said Fleet. Meanwhile, Admiral Adama and crew send Lee Adama off into his new life as a member of the Quorum of Twelve, and Adama has to deal with the possibility that Kara Thrace may very well be right about her knowing how to get to Earth.

Notes

  • The episode title is possibly a play on a common idiom "Six of one, half a dozen of the other", indicating equivalence.
  • This is the first appearance of Natalie, a Number Six who is the leader of a faction advocating a search for the Final Five.
  • This episode reveals three model numbers: the Cavils are Number Ones, the Leoben Conoys are Number Twos, and the Simons are Number Fours.
  • Interestingly enough, all the numbers for the Significant Seven are consecutive, until they reach Number Eight. Thus Number Seven, and Numbers Nine through Twelve are not revealed.
  • Raiders are capable of independent thought, unlike Centurions, whose higher brain functions are prevented by an telencephalic inhibitor that Natalie and her supporters remove from the Centurions after the vote turns against them.
  • According to Cavil, there are millions of copies of each Cylon model.
  • The picture Roslin shoots was taken at the ceremony to award Adama the Medal of Distinction in the episode "Hero".
