Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In the episode titled "Pegasus", the Galactica discovers that they are not the only Battlestar left after all. Who is the commander of the Battlestar Pegasus?

Answer: Admiral Cain

Admiral Cain is slightly mad and well played by Michelle Forbes (Ensign Ro of "Star Trek: TNG"). In the original "Battlestar Galactica" TV series, Admiral Cain was played as a roguish hero by the late Lloyd Bridges.

2. Who eventually kills the commander of the Pegasus?

Answer: Gina

Gina is the version of Number 6 who was captured as a spy on the Battlestar Pegasus. The crew of the Pegasus tortured her until Gaius met her and helped her escape. She then went to Admiral Cain's quarters and shot her. Starbuck had been ordered to assassinate Cain but that order was taken back at the last moment.

3. What member of the Galactica crew was eventually promoted to commander and placed in command of the Pegasus?

Answer: Apollo

Apollo became the commander of the Pegasus after one commander was murdered and the other died in a battle with the Cylons.

Answer: Kat

Kat and Starbuck both tried to destroy Scar, but it was Kat who finally fired the shot that destroyed this troublesome Cylon Raider. This episode lets us know that the Cylon Raider ships are individuals, much like the human-looking Cylons, who download what they have learned into new versions of themselves after they are killed.

5. Commander Adama (later promoted to Admiral) is the commander of the Galactica. What is Adama's first name?

Answer: Bill

In the original series, Adama was the entire name of the character. None of the characters had different names. In the current series, all the characters have "real" names in addition to their call signs.

Answer: Arrow of Apollo

According to the scriptures, when the Arrow of Apollo is placed in the Tomb of Athena it will reveal the way to Earth. In a later episode, it does indeed prove to be true.

Answer: She is a Cylon

This was, in my opinion, one of the coolest episodes that has been made so far. The revelation that the reporter was a Cylon spy was shocking.

8. At the end of season 2, most of the human population moves to the planet of New Caprica. After a year, the Cylons arrive. What gave away the humans' location?

Answer: Nuclear Radiation

Gina, the version of Number 6 from the Pegasus, committed suicide by setting off a nuclear warhead. The leftover radiation from that blast led the Cylons to New Caprica.

9. According to Number 6, how many models of humanoid Cylons are there?

Answer: 12

There are 12 models. Through episode 40, we have been introduced to 7 models so there could still be at least 5 unknown Cylon spies living in the human population.

Answer: Hera

At the end of the episode "Exodus, Part 2" we see the Cylons find the baby and take her back to their ship.
