[edit] resistance member?

The plot summary in the article says that a resistance member's wife that gets killed (Duck). But I just watched the webisodes and it is pretty obvious throughout the storyline that Duck is refusing to become part of the resistance. He does seem to be a former military officer and a friend to some who are resistance members. I just don't know how to best rephrase that paragraph. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Armen52 (talk • contribs) 01:50, October 5, 2006 (UTC).

The easiest thing to do it so refer to Duck as a "survivor" or "settler" or "Colonial" or some other appropriate word that concisely and clearly states his cultural affiliation but not necessarily his alignment with regard to the resistance... While you're fine-tuning it, it looks a bit redundant to me. The same death appears to be mentioned twice, for one, unless there were actually two deaths (I'm not watching them until the final one is released tomorrow)... -- Fru1tbat 02:13, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] acronym hyperlinks?

Just a suggestion: the acronym XO could link to "Executive_officer" (and maybe other military acronyms as well?) Sean-mccorkle 01:44, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Could anyone get some screenshots for the webisodes like the regular episodes. It would make things a whole lot better. Sith Penguin Lord 14:41 21 March 2007

It is the 67th day of the occupation of New Caprica. Tyrol and Tigh have organized a resistance movement, but recruiting new soldiers and storing weapons is becoming dangerous and difficult. Meanwhile, Jammer, Duck, and his wife Nora discuss the Cylon-run and human-staffed New Caprica Police.

Duck upsets Tyrol by rejecting an offer to join the resistance due to his focus on starting a family. Later, Jean Barolay and Tigh agree to hide weapons in the city's temple, a move that disturbs Jammer.

While the resistance secretly hides weapons inside the temple, Nora asks the gods for a child and is pleased when Duck tells her of his rejection of Tyrol's offer to join the resistance.

Cally and Nora are visiting the temple when Cylon's arrive at the temple, presumably to look for the weapons hidden there by the resistance, and open fire after being met with resistance by civilians in the temple. Cally falls to the ground with her child, but Nora is shot and killed.

Duck, visibly distraught over his wife's death, is visited by Tyrol and Jammer. When Tyrol tells him that the Cylons attacked the temple because the resistance had hidden weapons there, Duck angrily tells them to leave.

Tigh and Barolay discuss how the attack at the temple has increased the support of the human population for the resistance and given them hundreds of new recruits, benefits that Jammer does not believe were worth the lives of the ten people killed at the temple.

When Jammer is captured by the Cylons, Tigh worries that he will sell out the resistance, a view that is not shared by Tyrol. In the New Caprica Detention Center, Jammer is visited by a Number Five, who wishes to discuss the events at the temple.

When Number Five offers Jammer the chance to become an informant on the resistance, saying that it will save lives and work towards peace between Cylons and humans, Jammer balks at the proposition. However, Number Five gives Jammer a keycard to access the detention center should he change his mind.

While Duck begins to clean up his tent and breaks down in mourning over his wife, Tyrol greets Jammer as he is released from detention. When asked about what the Cylons questioned him about, Jammer only responds that he did not tell the Cylons anything about the resistance.

Tyrol is informed by Duck that he has joined the New Caprica Police in order to leak information to the resistance. Meanwhile, Tigh and Jean Barolay discuss their plan to hide explosives in the grain silo, located across from the hospital. When Tigh seems unconcerned about the potential for civilian casualties, Jammer leaves the room and joins Duck outside. Once Duck has left, Jammer reaches into his pocket and looks at the keycard Number Five gave him.

[edit] WEBISODES PAGE

What are everyone's thoughts on making a page entirely devoted to Battlestar Galactica webisodes. The main reason for this is because of the Razor flashbacks which really don't a central loaction of wikipedia and there isn't probably enough informaiton on them to write/start an article entirely devoted on them. Also, I can't remember where exactly I heard this, but Moore was interesting in making some season four webisodes (which are not the razor flashbacks might i add) so if these are done (possible during the break midseason 4) then it would be most ideal to have all of the webisodes in one place instead of creating individual (and potensially small) pages. It seems silly to have a page entirely devoted to the resistance and none of the razor flashbacks. Thoughts... Myles Trundle (talk) 04:17, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
