Gaius stands his ground, and everybody gets irritated. "You're going to have to salve your consciences some other way," he blusters, and one Doral explains they can always find another President, while another cocks a gun to his head. Caprica shouts, "Stop this!" And everybody stares at everybody else for awhile. "This is crazy!" Doral shoots her in the head and she falls onto the floor. I guess that's a genie out of the bottle now. The other Sixes are clearly thrown by her death; Boomer stares down, horrified and disgusted. Gaius murmurs a prayer to the singular God, and Cavil's like, "Duh, she'll be back. ... But you won't if you don't sign that thing, unless you're a Cylon, which is still doubtful." Doral screams at him, gun to his head, to sign it. Over and over and over.
Six Fugue! Chip Six sits on his desk in a very clean and happy office. "There's nothing you can do, Gaius. It'll be okay." He's like happy to see her; I don't know if it's because he thinks she's Caprica Six or because she is Caprica Six or if he's just happy to see Chip Six or what. All the above. "Help me." She explains, back in her usual role of pointing out to him the things he can't actually admit for himself, that he has to sign it, or else they are going to kill him. Not some other time but right this second. "I can't. I won't! You can't force... " She leans in sweetly. "Sometimes you have to do things you hate, so you can survive to fight another day." He looks down at the page, back in his office. But he's already signed it. The Cylons all stare down at him. Three takes it brightly and leaves; he begins to cry. Boomer's eyes are full and she swallows deeply as she looks at him and waits for Caprica to come back.
