I watched this show over a decade ago, so it's refreshing seeing it again with your perspectives and I'm still being surprised by all the twists and turns. It does such a good job of translating real and intimate war-time issues through a grand sci-fi lens. I really hope you guys watch Starship Troopers after this at some point!

I think someone in the full reaction pointed this out, but individual Cylons don't normally share each others' memories. While they may be the same model, they are unique individuals with their own memories (and personalities, to the extent an exact duplicate can). The reason the two Sharons share memories is because the Cylons needed to plant Sharen #2 with Helo and convince him she was the same Sharon he knew. So the Number Six prisoner had no idea who Gaius was prior to meeting him in the cell. The Number Six who had a relationship with him on Caprica hasn't been seen since the miniseries, unless you count the one in his head, if she is, in fact, the same "person". So memories CAN be shared between different Cylons of the same model, but usually are not unless it is needed for some reason. As Sharon once said (paraphrasing), the humanoid Cylons are not connected to a magic Wi-Fi that shares information constantly; the magic Wi-Fi can only grab them and download them to a new body if they die, and as we now know, are in range of the necessary equipment. A thing I think would be helpful to know, and is never explicitly stated, is that the humanoid Cylons aren't... Well they're not like terminators, metal covered in skin with some blood thrown in (ignore the glowing back stuff from the first season, the producers labeled that a bad idea they should have cut). They're flesh and blood, but artificially created... And how the hell does that work? Are they still even machines at that point? As you caught on in the episode, the lines seem a little more blurred now. They're obviously different in ways, they can be programmed to an extent; and try as I might, shoving a USB cord into my arm doesn't let me download the internet, but there's no circuit boards in them. So where does that line between person and machine lay? I think that's one of the central themes in these episodes; as we see, humans can be just as evil as Cylons. Fun technical fact: Battlestars are WAY better at taking out Basestars than vice versa. Basestars, if you think about it, were probably made with one mission in mind: destroy The Twelve Colonies from orbit (hence why they only have missiles and raiders). Now they're having to act outside that role. Battlestars, on the other hand, have flak to take down missiles, big honkin' space guns, and Vipers too. So one on one, I'd put my money on a Battlestar, it's when you have groups of Basestars that they face overwhelming conditions. Now the civilian fleet? Oh yeah, a Basestar could wreck them all without protection.
