Adama shoots back and the two eventually engage in hand-to-hand combat. When the Centurion tries to use a blade on Adama, Adama pulls his parachute's rip cord to slow his descent, watching as the Centurion falls to the ground. Adama lands safely on the ground, crashing through what appears to be a warehouse sky-window. There he encounters the Centurion and kills it by repeatedly smashing its head with a pipe. As Adama enters what appears to be a Cylon laboratory, he finds evidence of human experimentation and human mutilations.

He eventually finds a vat filled with a gelatin-like substance which is reminiscent of the or tanks that the later would use. He kneels down and touches the substance, and immediately begins to hear the screams of torture victims. As he looks back at the tank, a hand abruptly grabs his arm. The hand disappears just as quickly as it appeared, and Adama falls back to the ground. A voice is heard, quoting from the prophecies: 'All this has happened before and will happen again.' .

A banging sound is heard from a locked chamber nearby. As Adama approaches the window of the chamber, an unidentified man presses his face against the window and begs Adama to release him and the other captives. Adama finds a piece of metal nearby, and attempts to break open the door to the chamber.

As Adama attempts to free the door, the man tells him that they are civilians from the ship, whose convoy was attacked by the Cylons, and that there were initially 50 of them who were taken away one by one. Suddenly the ground begins to tremble. Adama manages to open the door a little bit, but not enough to allow the captives to escape. The man urges Adama to leave them and save himself. He asks Adama to tell others of what has happened to them. Adama finally complies after he realizes that he cannot free the prisoners, and runs out of the laboratory.

Emerging from the laboratory warehouse, Adama sees the lifting off into the clouds. He radios his findings about the Cylon experimentation on humans to, but the young pilot is shocked to learn that an armistice has just been signed, and the war is over.Helena Cain This entire story segment is contained exclusively on the unrated, extended DVD version of 'Razor'.

A young, her sister and her are pinned down in a building under heavy fire. The three attempt to escape after the last remaining marines in the building are gunned down. When her father is injured by mortar fire, he tells Helena to get Lucy to a shelter before dying. The sisters make it out of the building, but Lucy trips over concrete rubble and injures herself, unable to go on.

Helena panics, yelling at Lucy to get up and run. She eventually leaves Lucy in the field of rubble and runs away to hide in a container. A group of Centurions appears and surrounds Lucy, who continues to cry out Helena's name. A Centurion discovers Helena inside the container. She finds a knife on the floor and nervously approaches the Centurion, preparing to attack it. The Centurion stops approaching the girl and retreats from the container, apparently having received instructions and information that the Cylon War is over and an armistice was signed. When Helena comes out, she finds only her sister's doll on the ground, and watches the Raiders leave the planet.

Helena Cain lost her entire family on that day.The Fall of the Twelve Colonies Fall of the Scorpion Fleet Shipyards Main article:. Only: waits at the for a ship to bring her to Pegasus. She briefly chats with about her mother, delegate, her assignment and her career goals. The battlestar Pegasus is docked at the over for a three-month overhaul. As Kendra Shaw approaches the ship from, she gazes in awe at the size of the. Admiral is in her quarters, reviewing a crew status report as her, Colonel enters.

He lightly encourages her to take her shore leave, but she insists that she could never leave Pegasus in the hands of the civilian contractors assigned to oversee her overhaul. In the port hangar bay, Raptor 179 has recently arrived. With orders to report directly to, Shaw steps down and asks a pair of passing crewman to help her locate it. The crewman, however, are too busy to notice her. Shaw wanders through the port, past groups of busy civilians, until she finds, a civilian network administrator assigned to Pegasus's overhaul.

Inviere shows Shaw a map of Pegasus, with a route to the CIC, and the two discuss the origins of Gina's last name. Shaw eventually reaches the CIC, where she finds Cain and Belzen at the Command and Control station. Shaw drops her gear and salutes the admiral. Cain is harsh on her new aide.

She grills Shaw for being late to the CIC, concluding that she either stopped for a cup of coffee, or got lost. After Shaw leaves, Cain breaks out in laughter with Belzen, revealing that she only had a joke at the lieutenant's expense. escorts her to her quarters. As they are walking down the hallway, a large blast shakes Pegasus, and the noise ripples through the hallway. Shaw and Hoshi are immediately thrown to the floor. As Shaw awakens, she is in a daze.

She looks around to find Hoshi unconscious on the floor. The hallway has suddenly become a disaster area. Admiral Cain, who was on her way to her quarters at the time, finds Shaw and Hoshi in the corridor.

She asks Shaw if she is alright, but when she doesn’t respond, Cain slaps her in the face. Shaw immediately awakens. The hallway echoes with screams of horror, and the sirens blare. After an aborted attempt to wake Hoshi, the two head to the CIC.

Pegasus is on fire in space. Flood the shipyard; missiles strike two helpless -type battlestars nearby. In the CIC, Colonel and many of the CIC personnel are unconscious. Belzen is coordinating the response effort, but there have been multiple nuclear detonations. Luckily however, the battlestar still has main power and propulsion, but that’s about it. And weapons have both been knocked out.

The Cylon attack is taking its toll on the shipyards. The two Valkyrie-type battlestars lose their moorings and one crashes into the shipyards, instantly destroying it. Cain orders the ship to seal all hatches and release all moorings in preparation for an immediate departure.

As the ship evacuates the shipyards, Cain orders the drive spun up for an immediate jump. A Cylon Raider fires two nuclear missiles at Pegasus from across the shipyards. The missiles fly past a as its moorings are destroyed, and past the wreckage of several other battlestars and support vessels. Cain orders an immediate jump, but Shaw says that with the navigational computer off-line, she would have to enter a random set of coordinates, possibly within a star or other larger astral body. Cain yells back at her to do it anyway, and the battlestar jumps away.So Say We All. Two days since the attack on the Scorpion Fleet Shipyards, Pegasus is four to five jumps away from the Colonies.

Belzen reports that many of Pegasus's and are either destroyed or beyond repair, over a quarter of the crew is dead, and rumors are circulating about the destruction of the Twelve Colonies and the. Shaw has been working without sleep to restore the navigational and defense computer systems, and she has finally done it. Additionally, she has discovered lines of hidden Cylon computer code inside the, which was fortunately down during the attack. Shaw suggests that the entire program be purged from the system. After ordering two Raptors on a reconnaissance mission back to the Colonies, the time has finally come for Cain to reveal the extent of the devastation at home to her crew. She tells them that their colonies have been destroyed, their cities nuked, their fleet obliterated.

While the victory of one ship may seem unattainable when even their very survival is at stake, she tells them that they have revenge to reach for instead. In an expression of determination and conviction, the crew resoundingly shouts, “So say we all!” over and over, after hearing Cain’s words. Cain, Shaw, Fisk and Belzen are in the admiral’s quarters, looking over recently gathered intelligence for a low-risk attack on a Cylon outpost.

They are discussing a somewhat isolated communications relay when Gina Inviere enters. She greets the admiral with a kiss and a flirtatious shoulder pinch, and the five sit down to enjoy some wine and conversation. Cain assures her senior staff that while she does want to engage in guerrilla warfare tactics against the Cylons, she is not willing to put the ship and crew in any amount of excessive danger. Shaw and Inviere are working on firewalling all of Pegasus's computer networks to prevent them from being infiltrated by the Cylons, but constantly having to find a senior officer to input their command codes for system access is making the process take exceedingly long. Inviere discreetly complains about it, and Shaw says that under the circumstances, she would speak to Cain about raising her clearance. In the meantime, she gives Inviere her own command code to use.

Inviere then discusses her relationship with Cain in greater detail.Battle of the Communications Relay Main article:. Pegasus prepares for a hit-and-run attack on what appears to be a somewhat neglected Cylon communications relay. However, when Pegasus arrives, there are twelve Cylon Raiders guarding the relay.

Despite the increased enemy presence, Cain orders to advance. Almost the second after the Vipers are launched, fifteen enemy squadrons of fighters jump into DRADIS range. Cain orders Pegasus's defensive fire concentrated on the incoming attack squadrons, but Shaw reports that the weapons grid won't respond to commands. In spite of the odds, Cain orders Belzen to launch the reserve Vipers, but he insists that taking such an action would cost too many lives and resources. She persists in her orders, but Belzen refuses to carry them out.

Cain orders Belzen to hand her his sidearm, which she uses to shoot him in the forehead, in front of the entire bridge crew. Cain turns to a stunned Fisk, tells him that he is now the and orders him to launch the reserve Vipers. Fisk, nearly petrified by what he just saw, is more than compelled to follow the order.

As the last of Pegasus’s remaining squadrons launch, Cylon batteries pound the hull. With the weapons grid down, Cylon easily breach Pegasus’s defensive perimeter. Begin pouring into the ship through breached.

Cain orders fast-response teams of to engage the Centurions, and orders Shaw to Secondary Damage Control, as she fears that the Cylons will use this junction to vent all of Pegasus’s air into space. As Shaw heads to Secondary Damage Control, she finds Gina Inviere trying to escape the Centurions, and orders her to the CIC. As she peers around the corner, she is almost seen by a Centurion. She waits for it to leave, and as she turns the corner to go down the hallway, she sees a Cylon, following the Centurion. At first, Shaw doesn’t understand what she sees, but then it comes together –, and Gina Inviere is one of them.

Shaw shoots and kills the Six, leaving it dead right in front of a security camera. Shaw immediately heads to the CIC to take Inviere, now also in CIC, into custody before she can do any more harm. In the CIC, she directs her weapon at Inviere, and orders the Marines to take her into custody.

When Cain belays the order, Shaw states that Gina is a Cylon infiltrator and that 'they can look like us'. When Cain scoffs, Shaw asks Hoshi to display the security feed from Airlock 4. Cain balks at the image of the dead humanoid Cylon in the form of her lover.

Feeling betrayed and without any other options, she orders the guards to remove Inviere (' this thing') from the bridge. As a Cylon missile strikes Pegasus, Gina uses the moment to flip her captor around by the jaw, and gains control of his, which she uses to shoot his comrade.

She then snaps the Marine's neck, and trains her weapon on Cain. In a moment of hesitation, Inviere cannot bring herself to shoot Cain, and Shaw sneaks up behind her, clubbing the Cylon over the head with the butt of her rifle.Massacre aboard the Scylla. The victory at the communications relay is bittersweet. Over eight hundred of Pegasus’s original crew are now dead, over 90 Vipers are either destroyed or out of commission, and the deck crew doesn't have the resources to repair all remaining ones. As Cain and Shaw discuss the battle, Gina Inviere looks on from her cell.

Shaw blames herself for the high cost of the battle, for giving Inviere her access codes, which she used to take down the weapons grid. The hatch opens, and Lieutenant salutes Admiral Cain.

Cain orders him to use whatever means he can conjure to retrieve information from Inviere, including torture and rape. As Thorne enters Inviere’s cell, Cain is called to the CIC. As Cain enters the CIC, Fisk is elated to inform the admiral that a convoy of 15 civilian ships has been detected. Fisk and Shaw are thrilled at the discovery, but the mood quickly turns sour when they realize Cain has other things on her mind. Cain orders Fisk to prepare teams of Marines and engineers to board each ship. They will take what they need, including spare parts and people, and leave the ships without FTL drives to fend for themselves. Fisk and Shaw come aboard the, where they find a relieved welcoming party.

Is the first to welcome them aboard. Excitement quickly turns to confusion however, when they hand Laird a list of Admiral Cain’s orders.

Laird is shocked to learn that Cain wants to take their FTL drives. Laird informs the welcoming party, and they suddenly become an angry mob. Shaw informs them that they will use force if necessary, but Laird persistently refuses.

As the mob inches closer to the boarding party, Fisk reports to Cain of the escalating situation. In an act that surprises even him, she orders him to shoot the families of any selectee that doesn’t comply with the orders. Fisk and the Marines are wary of the order, but they line up a couple of the families despite their reservations, hoping that showing the mob their resolve will force them to comply. The angry mob suddenly becomes violent – they throw whatever they can at the boarding party. At that very moment, Shaw pulls out her sidearm, and shoots a woman in the front in the head.

The Marines follow suit, and before very long, the deck of the Scylla is painted with the blood of the dead. Shaw’s gaze drifts to her sidearm, still smoking from the shot, and then up to Laird, who is too stunned to move. In the aftermath, Shaw cannot bring her eyes to look upon the dead. Fisk comforts her by telling her that the entire fleet heard about what happened and there should be no more resistance. As her party leaves the Scylla, she can’t help but look back. For her actions aboard the Scylla, Cain promotes Shaw to captain. It is small comfort to Shaw, who is still anguished by what she has done.

Seeing her vulnerability, Cain tells Shaw that the war is forcing them all to do things that they may not like, even hate, because if they don’t, then they may not live to simply become human again. By putting aside her fear, her reservations, even her revulsion to complete the mission, Shaw has become Cain’s 'razor'.Present events.

Newly-promoted Commander is formally appointed commander of Pegasus by in front of the ship's crew. In his speech he promises to change things on the battlestar and announces 's appointment as acting. Shaw follows the speech on the set, but eventually switches it off. She walks to a jar, takes out a syringe and injects herself with a drug. She is still troubled about what happened on the Scylla. Next, she is summoned to Adama's office, who reads her service file and points out that she received glowing reports from Cain, but increasingly negatives ones from Fisk and, who eventually assigned her to kitchen duty because of 'persistent insubordinate behavior'.

After listening to Shaw's candid opinions about him and his predecessors, Adama offers her the job of executive officer; he intends to give the crew back its pride, and as an outsider he needs someone to uphold Cain's legacy. During a firearms drill, she shows competence but also how hard she is on the crew. William Adama comments that his son found an XO meaner than. The Admiral gives Commander Adama his first mission: a for two pilots and a civilian science team in an overdue Raptor. At their destination, Starbuck and conduct a Viper patrol and suddenly encounter enemy fighters of an unfamiliar configuration. Although able to identify them as Cylons, Starbuck doesn't realize that they are in fact. Pegasus establishes a defensive perimeter and orders the Vipers to return prior to an FTL jump.

When the malfunctions and the Raiders close, Shaw orders to the vessel's offensive flight pod turned on the incoming targets, placing Starbuck and Showboat inside the battlestar's close-in firing solution. Struggling their way through the barrage, a Raider follows them into the, which Starbuck shoots down once inside the landing bay. On the, she angrily confronts Shaw over her decision to open fire, but Adama defends his XO. Pegasus returns to the, and Admiral Adama, Roslin and Tigh inspect the downed Raider on the hangar deck.

Recalls the ', a group of that escaped being scrapped by the. The Guardians guard the, created by the Cylons as a first attempt at an organic model and eventually abandoned as an evolutionary dead end. This causes Adama to remember the events on the ice planet on the last day of the Cylon War, finally realizing the significance of what he saw over 40 years ago.

After examining the Raider's navigational data, Admiral Adama believes that the Raptor crew was captured by the Guardians and orders his son to jump to a possible base of theirs. For the duration of the operation, he transfers his flag to Pegasus, but assures Lee that it will be his mission. Shaw drafts an attack plan for Pegasus to draw Cylon forces away while a Raptor, piloted by Thrace and carrying a strike team, jumps to the Cylon base. Before signing off on the plan, Lee Adama confronts Shaw over the incident on the Scylla. She just replies that she is Cain's legacy - a razor - and that Cain wouldn't have hesitated to execute the plan. Before the battle Shaw is about to take another shot of the drug and when she is caught by Thrace, who is looking for a bottle of. The two stalemate and agree to keep each other's secrets, and realize that they are more alike than they thought.

This event is recalled by to months later, over drinks, in the Season 2 episode '.' . This tactic is reminiscent of a similar tactic attempted by the Cylons in the episode '.' .

Kendra Shaw reports 'at least 816 dead, 121 injured' after the attack on the com relay. Earlier, Colonel Belzen reports the loss of over 700 people in the attack on the shipyards. Given Pegasus's crew complement of approximately 1,750 when she encounters Galactica, adding both numbers would mean that almost half of the crew died. Battlestar Wiki assumes that Shaw is relating the casualties of both battles.
