PLOT


Survivor Count: 47,853

To help relieve tension between the military and civilian personnel of the fleet, Commander Adama gives a civilian reporter, D'Anna Biers , unrestricted access to document life aboard the '' Galactica ''.

During her investigation, Biers uncovers a death threat against Colonel Tigh by a disgruntled Lt. Palladino (as revenge for his part in a disastrous raid on the '' Gideon '' supply ship), and also discovers that Adama is holding a pregnant Cylon ( Caprica-Boomer ) in the brig after following the Viper pilot, Louanne "Kat" Katraine , to sickbay for overdosing on stims. Meanwhile, Boomer is rushed to medical after she has vaginal bleeding and Dr. Cottle stuggles to save her baby.

Her time aboard ''Galactica'' causes Biers to rethink her previous anti-military stance, and she ends up producing a flattering potrayal of the men and women of ''Galactica''. This is however, all a sham; Biers is revealed to be another Cylon agent. She shows her documentary to the other humanoid Cylons (possibly in a theatre on Caprica ).

Number Six is impressed by the humans resiliance, and a copy of Boomer questions the fate of the baby. Biers states the baby was saved, where a copy of Aaron Doral (Number Five) states the baby is a miracle that must be protected at all costs.
