WHO’S SIDE ARE YOU ON? Gaius Baltar has rebuilt a Cylon Centurion, but has he successfully reprogrammed it— or is it simply waiting for the right moment to strike? Will it hunt down hidden Cylons within the fleet— or join them? Meanwhile, on occupied Caprica, Cavil intensifies his cruel game with the captured Simon— or is he putting pieces in place to help his fellow Cylon escape? And in both places, the Cylons are closing in on the humans…
