<Spoiler Alert> But what about Number Six and Tigh?
May 31 2008, 6:05 PM EDT | Post edited: May 31 2008, 6:05 PM EDT
In this week's episode, Adama and Tigh had a knock-down, dragout because the doctor told Adama that Number Six, a prisoner in the brig, had been impregnated by Tigh...? The original idea was that Sharon (Athenea) and Tyrol did procreate is that they were both Cylons, but each successfully produced a child with human partners. But Col. Tigh is one of the 'secret' Cylons...? 2  out of 3 found this valuable. Do you?

Yeah, that's an enigma, isn't it?

I still don't get why Cylons can't procreate amongst themselves -- they seem to exhibit every other biological function common to humans, why not conception and pregnancy? 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

Let's get this entirely straight and direct. Adama Accused Tigh of Raping 6 and that was out of line. Because i really don't think that is possible--Tigh did not have sex with her, or did I miss an episode? 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

It was implied. We see a scene of Tigh viewing Six as Ellen again, and then they embrace and move out of shot. It was also somewhat implicit in their next conversation. I don't know if Adama was horrified that Saul would rape, or that Saul would even think of having relations with a Cylon... Do you find this valuable?

I don't know; I guess I stil have the old Asimov "Foundation" series rules for robots in my head....it just seemed to be almost implied; Galen and Boomer didn't get pregnant with each other, we never see any 'baby' Cylons, etc. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?
