Battlestar Galactica Cast

After the coup staged by Natalie, Brother Cavil and his supporters are reborn aboard their Resurrection ship; the Cylons are now divided, as Natalie and Boomer now control a number of baseships... Cally and Tyrol’s marriage continues to fall apart; unaware that she is living with a Cylon, Cally accuses her husband of having an affair with Tory. Apollo accepts his appointment to the Quorum of Twelve as the new representative of Caprica. After receiving confidential information from Tom Zarek, Apollo soon finds himself facing off against Roslin when he exposes the president’s plans for ‘Executive 112’. Elsewhere, aboard the former sewage ship Demetrius, Starbuck continues with her secret mission; however, there is dissent amongst her crew, as Anders, Gaeta, Helo and Boomer all question Starbuck’s ability to find the lost colony of Earth. Brother Cavil and Natalie negotiate over the cessation of raider lobotomies and the release of the D'annas. However, Cavil’s compliance is merely a ruse – his baseships open fire on those commanded by Natalie and Boomer, as civil war amongst the Cylons begins… Back on the Galactica, Cally discovers the terrible truth about her husband’s real identity – a revelation that costs her her life…
